摩8:12
他们必飘流、从这海到那海、从北边到东边、往来奔跑寻求耶和华的话、却寻不着。
They will wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east; they will run back and forth to seek the word of Yahweh, and will not find it.
主耶稣！我反复思想, 这节经文的启用, 神岂不是多方多次向以色列民说话, 为何会寻不着耶和华的话。我想起, 经上说, 因为这百姓油蒙了心, 耳朵发沉, 眼睛闭着。主啊！末世, 我的心更要得敬畏神的智慧, 我的心要更加安稳, 不是四处寻找异象, 预言 。我的心需要更多积存神的话, 有智慧拒绝人的话。
摩8:11 主耶和华说、日子将到、我必命饥荒降在地上．人饥饿非因无饼、干渴非因无水、乃因不听耶和华的话。
Behold, the days come," says the Lord Yahweh, "that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of Yahweh.
主耶稣！ 我回顾过去遇见过的伤心事, 有意外受伤, 投资损失, 挫伤等事件, 似乎有共同之处, 就是缺乏在神面前耐心等待从圣灵来的话。主啊！在新的一年, 我要更多聆听, 倾听, 听到, 听见, 听懂, 并且清楚知道神要我在基督里得的是什么。
摩8:1-2
主耶和华又指示我一件事．我看见一筐夏天的果子。他说、阿摩司阿、你看见甚么．我说、看见一筐夏天的果子．耶和华说、我民以色列的结局到了．我必不再宽恕他们。
Thus the Lord Yahweh showed me: behold, a basket of summer fruit. He said, "Amos, what do you see?" I said, "A basket of summer fruit." Then Yahweh said to me, "The end has come on my people Israel. I will not again pass by them any more.
主耶稣！原来圣灵无时无刻都在向祂的子民说话, 借着自然界, 政治界等现象, 都是在向我们启示天父的心意。耶和华见人在地上罪恶很大, 终日所思想的尽都是恶。因为城内罪恶的声音, 在耶和华面前甚大。主啊！古时耶和华差天使毁灭那充满罪恶的地方, 如今, 时候将到, 神预备的全备救恩传遍全地的时候, 也是全地被毁灭的时候。
摩7:15
耶和华选召我、使我不跟从羊群、对我说、你去向我民以色列说预言。
and Yahweh took me from following the flock, and Yahweh said to me, 'Go, prophesy to my people Israel.'
主耶稣！我晓得绵羊和山羊的异同, 我晓得我的身份, 我是上帝的孩子, 是君尊的祭司, 是圣洁国度的子民, 我是蒙恩得救赎的人。主啊！我是属神, 蒙恩的人, 要说属神国度的话, 不提也不高举别神的, 不散播谣言, 谎言, 假新闻。专注话属神的实话。
摩6:12
马岂能在崖石上奔跑．人岂能在那里用牛耕种呢。你们却使公平变为苦胆、使公义的果子变为茵蔯。
Do horses run on the rocky crags? Does one plow there with oxen? But you have turned justice into poison, and the fruit of righteousness into bitterness;
主耶稣！ 这节经文使我联想到劳工, 女佣, 低薪工友, 许多时候, 他们受到不公平的待遇, 不公义的审理。主啊！求祢眷顾弱势群体, 求祢向他们伸出祢大能的膀臂, 保护他们不再受恶人所害。求祢伸手攻击恶人, 叫他们陷入自己所造的网罗。
摩5:24
惟愿公平如大水滚滚、使公义如江河滔滔。
But let justice roll on like rivers, and righteousness like a mighty stream.
主耶稣！今天的经文, 感到有一般力量向着我冲刺, 这世代公平, 公义, 似乎失去了力度。主啊！我向神呼求, 在来临的一年, 公平, 公义, 在全地被高举, 不公义的上位者, 尽都失去权势, 不公平的待遇, 交易, 尽都归正。
摩5:13
所以通达人见这样的时势、必静默不言．因为时势真恶。
Therefore a prudent person keeps silent in such a time, for it is an evil time.
主耶稣！ 我不解, 为什么通达人看到时势凶恶可以静默不言。我想起经上说, 神任凭万国各行其道, 神任凭他们, 逞着心里的情欲行污秽的事, 以致彼此玷辱自己的身体。神任凭他们放纵可羞耻的情欲, 他们的女人把顺性的用处, 变为逆性的用处。他们既然故意不认识神, 神就任凭他们存邪僻的心, 行那些不合理的事。主啊！求祢不要任凭我, 求圣灵责备, 管教我, 免得我得罪耶和华神。
摩5:4,14,
耶和华向以色列家如此说、你们要寻求我、就必存活。你们要求善、不要求恶、就必存活。这样、耶和华万军之神必照你们所说的、与你们同在。
For thus says Yahweh to the house of Israel: "Seek me, and you will live; Seek good, and not evil, that you may live; and so Yahweh, the God of Armies, will be with you, as you say.
主耶稣！关于神的同在, 我们只是说在嘴里, 心里并没有把神的同在当一回事。主啊！我视神的同在, 如生与死之别。求主圣灵无时无刻来警惕, 叫我的心存敬畏与神的同在对齐, 求良善, 清洁, 和睦的心。
摩4:11-12
我倾覆你们中间的城邑、如同我从前倾覆所多玛蛾摩拉一样、使你们好象从火中抽出来的一根柴．你们仍不归向我．这是耶和华说的。以色列阿、我必向你如此行．以色列阿、我既这样行、你当预备迎见你的神。
"I have overthrown some of you, as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a burning stick plucked out of the fire; yet you haven't returned to me," says Yahweh. "Therefore thus will I do to you, Israel; because I will do this to you, prepare to meet your God, Israel.
主耶稣！预备迎见你的神, 这句话如雷贯耳。求圣灵教导我们, 当如何预备迎见神。主啊！每早晨, 我都要提醒自己, 要举目仰望神的荣光, 要手洁心清, 要被主的话光照, 要谨慎所思所言。
摩4:7-8
在收割的前三月我使雨停止、不降在你们那里．我降雨在这城、不降雨在那城．这块地有雨、那块地无雨．无雨的就枯干了。这样、两三城的人凑到一城去找水、却喝不足．你们仍不归向我．这是耶和华说的。
"I also have withheld the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest; and I caused it to rain on one city, and caused it not to rain on another city. One place was rained on, and the piece where it didn't rain withered. So two or three cities staggered to one city to drink water, and were not satisfied: yet you haven't returned to me," says Yahweh.
主耶稣！当人们遇见自然灾害, 总是可以在科学的知识给灾害做解读。主啊！我们要将自己分别出来, 求祢赐给我们属天的洞察力,知道神在灾害中要告诉我们什么, 包括这次的冠状病毒疫情。
摩4:5
任你们献有酵的感谢祭、把甘心祭宣传报告给众人．因为是你们所喜爱的．这是主耶和华说的。
offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened, and proclaim free will offerings and brag about them: for this pleases you, you children of Israel," says the Lord Yahweh.
主耶稣！我想起在经上说, 我们从前也都在他们中间, 放纵肉体的私欲, 随着肉体和心中所喜好的去行, 本为可怒之子, 和别人一样。主啊！当我只按心中喜好的去行,我喜欢的事奉, 却是神所不喜悦的, 求圣灵强有力的责备我。
摩3:15
我要拆毁过冬和过夏的房屋、象牙的房屋也必毁灭、高大的房屋都归无有、这是耶和华说的。
I will strike the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory will perish, and the great houses will have an end," says Yahweh.
主耶稣！富裕的人为了过舒适的生活, 预备了过冬和过夏的房屋。主啊！我要预备的是, 建筑温馨家庭所需要的心思, 预备朝见主面的意念。因为, 到那日, 有形有体的都要成为过去, 唯有信, 望, 爱, 要永远长存。
摩3:7
主耶和华若不将奥秘指示他的仆人众先知、就一无所行。
Surely the Lord Yahweh will do nothing, unless he reveals his secret to his servants the prophets.
主耶稣！ 我想起神要灭所多玛, 俄摩拉, 神说要先让摩西知道。主啊！ 末日什么时候来到, 会发生什么事, 祢仍旧会启示敬畏神的仆人众先知。求主圣灵帮助我们明辨真假先知的能力。有敬畏神的智慧揭发假先知。
摩3:3
二人若不同心、岂能同行呢。
Do two walk together, unless they have agreed?
主耶稣！ 今天的经文, 叫我反复思想, 过去我在什么时候, 什么事上没有与祢同心, 所遇到的结果又是什么。主啊！ 我在何事上有亏欠神的荣耀, 求圣灵来光照, 在接下来的日子, 要心意更新, 察验神的旨意, 要更加殷勤, 在更多的事上与圣灵同心同行。
摩3:1-2
以色列人哪、你们全家是我从埃及地领上来的、当听耶和华攻击你们的话。在地上万族中、我只认识你们．因此、我必追讨你们的一切罪孽。
Hear this word that Yahweh has spoken against you, children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up out of the land of Egypt, saying: "You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth. Therefore I will punish you for all of your sins."
主耶稣！我听到了, 因为时候到了, 审判要从神的家起首。主啊！求圣灵来洁净教会, 释放出神圣洁的大能, 叫那些冒用神的名说话的人被惩治, 所有假冒为善的领袖都被揭发。
摩2:4
耶和华如此说、犹大人三番四次的犯罪、我必不免去他们的刑罚．因为他们厌弃耶和华的训诲、不遵守他的律例．他们列祖所随从虚假的偶像使他们走迷了。
Thus says Yahweh: "For three transgressions of Judah, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have rejected Yahweh's law, and have not kept his statutes, and their lies have led them astray, after which their fathers walked;
主耶稣！经上说, 不要自欺神是轻慢不得的, 人种的是甚么, 收的也是甚么。犹大, 以色列, 他们虽然是亚伯拉罕的后裔, 他们犯罪也必须受罚。主啊！在末日, 以色列国也要站在神台前交账, 为所行的恶受审, 求主圣灵在末日复兴以色列国, 赐福于业伯拉罕的子孙, 为所行的恶认罪悔改。
摩1:3-4
耶和华如此说、大马色三番四次的犯罪、我必不免去他的刑罚．因为他以打粮食的铁器打过基列。我却要降火在哈薛的家中、烧灭便哈达的宫殿。
Thus says Yahweh: "For three transgressions of Damascus, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron;
but I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.
主耶稣！大马色三番四次的向以色列民行恶, 耶和华神就降火在哈薛家, 烧灭王的宫殿。主啊！在末日, 列国将联手攻击以色列国, 求祢保守以色列国, 降火烧灭列国的宫殿。
珥3:16
耶和华必从锡安吼叫、从耶路撒冷发声．天地就震动．耶和华却要作他百姓的避难所、作以色列人的保障。
Yahweh will roar from Zion, and thunder from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth will shake; but Yahweh will be a refuge to his people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel.
主耶稣！经上说, 耶和华的声音震破香柏树。耶和华震碎利巴嫩的香柏树。主啊！在断定谷, 因耶和华神发出的声音, 天地都要震动,仇敌都要战斗。因为有祢的同在, 我们听见祢的声音, 便得以稳妥, 有力量面对一切的困境。
珥3:14-16
许多许多的人在断定谷．因为耶和华的日子临近断定谷。日月昏暗、星宿无光。耶和华必从锡安吼叫、从耶路撒冷发声．天地就震动．耶和华却要作他百姓的避难所、作以色列人的保障。
Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of Yahweh is near, in the valley of decision. The sun and the moon are darkened, and the stars withdraw their shining. Yahweh will roar from Zion, and thunder from Jerusalem; and the heavens and the earth will shake; but Yahweh will be a refuge to his people, and a stronghold to the children of Israel.
主耶稣！在断定谷, 是善是恶, 神都必审判。是山羊, 是绵羊, 神都分别出来。是事奉神, 不事奉神, 一切都显明。主啊！我要时时刻刻自我省察, 如同正在断定谷前见父面, 且要确保是站在祢的身边。
珥3:10
要将犁头打成刀剑、将镰刀打成戈矛．软弱的要说、我有勇力。
Beat your plowshares into swords, and your pruning hooks into spears. Let the weak say, 'I am strong.'
主耶稣！在末后的日子, 因不法的事增多, 许多人的爱心渐渐冷淡。主啊！当我看到这一幕, 我要提醒自己, 我的爱心, 信心, 良心, 不被他人所影响。当我觉得乏力的时候, 我要记得, 大声说, 我靠主刚强壮胆, 我有勇力。我也要鼓励身边的人都要说, 我有勇力。
珥2:30-33
在天上地下、我要显出奇事、有血、有火、有烟柱。日头要变为黑暗、月亮要变为血、这都在耶和华大而可畏的日子未到以前。到那时候、凡求告耶和华名的就必得救．因为照耶和华所说的、在锡安山耶路撒冷必有逃脱的人、在剩下的人中必有耶和华所召的。
I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: blood, fire, and pillars of smoke. The sun will be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of Yahweh comes. It will happen that whoever will call on the name of Yahweh shall be saved; for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be those who escape, as Yahweh has said, and among the remnant, those whom Yahweh calls.
主耶稣！感谢神的话, 在末日剩下的人中必有耶和华所召的. 主啊！ 求圣灵感动, 在末日有更多求告耶和华名的人.
珥2:28
以后、我要将我的灵浇灌凡有血气的．你们的儿女要说预言．你们的老年人要作异梦．少年人要见异象．
"It will happen afterward, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh; and your sons and your daughters will prophesy. Your old men will dream dreams. Your young men will see visions.
主耶稣！祢向天父祈求, 天父就赐下圣灵, 圣灵降下, 充满, 浇灌在人身上, 与人同在。感谢圣灵, 主啊！我祈求圣灵的能力, 在未后的日子, 更多显明在老人和少年的身上, 叫他们能做异梦, 能看到异象, 同时有智慧说话, 使许多人因他们分享神的作为, 认识天父的爱。
珥2:27
你们必知道我是在以色列中间、又知道我是耶和华你们的神、在我以外并无别神、我的百姓必永远不至羞愧。
You will know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am Yahweh, your God, and there is no one else; and my people will never again be disappointed.
主耶稣！ 因信靠祢救赎的福音, 如今, 我因信归属至高的神。创造宇宙万物的主宰, 是我的神, 这是何等的荣耀. 主啊！我不以福音为耻, 且要高举, 传扬这救赎的福音.
珥2:25
我打发到你们中间的大军队、就是蝗虫、蝻子、蚂蚱、剪虫、那些年所吃的、我要补还你们。你们必多吃而得饱足、就赞美为你们行奇妙事之耶和华你们神的名．我的百姓、必永远不至羞愧。
I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar, my great army, which I sent among you. You will have plenty to eat, and be satisfied, and will praise the name of Yahweh, your God, who has dealt wondrously with you; and my people will never again be disappointed.
主耶稣！ 神说, 我们归回的时候, 神必补还我们所失去的, 叫我深感安慰. 神的话说, 我的百姓, 必永远不至羞愧. 更使我感到尊荣. 主啊！我要归回, 归正, 不再偏行己路, 求主恢复我的荣耀, 就是起初造人的尊荣.
珥2:1-2
你们要在锡安吹角、在我圣山吹出大声．国中的居民、都要发颤．因为耶和华的日子将到、已经临近。那日是黑暗、幽冥、密云、乌黑的日子、好象晨光铺满山岭．有一民又大又强．从来没有这样的、以后直到万代也必没有。
Blow the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble, for the day of Yahweh comes, for it is close at hand: A day of darkness and gloominess, a day of clouds and thick darkness. As the dawn spreading on the mountains, a great and strong people; there has never been the like, neither will there be any more after them, even to the years of many generations.
主耶稣！这是我的领悟, 耶和华的日子将到, 那日是黑暗的. 主啊！我祈求圣灵的光引导我心, 当这世人的心越来越邪恶, 越来越黑暗时, 我的心因圣灵的光照, 越来越光明, 吸引更多神的子民, 同心同行, 荣耀天父.
珥1:1-3
耶和华的话临到毗土珥的儿子约珥。老年人哪、当听我的话．国中的居民哪、都要侧耳而听．在你们的日子、或你们列祖的日子、曾有这样的事么。你们要将这事传与子、子传与孙、孙传与后代。
The Word of Yahweh that came to Joel, the son of Pethuel. Hear this, you elders, And listen, all you inhabitants of the land. Has this ever happened in your days, or in the days of your fathers? Tell your children about it, and have your children tell their children, and their children, another generation.
主耶稣！神吩咐约珥告诉老年人, 要紧记神的事, 要代代相传神在他们当中的作为, 和神的处罚. 主啊！人对历史的记载, 只强调事件, 并没有提到神. 求主赐福, 加添我所需的勇气, 敢与家人分享神在我身上的管教, 好叫后代不会走错路, 做错事, 得罪神.
何14:9
谁是智慧人、可以明白这些事、谁是通达人、可以知道这一切．因为耶和华的道是正直的、义人必在其中行走、罪人却在其上跌倒。
Who is wise, that he may understand these things? Who is prudent, that he may know them? For the ways of Yahweh are right, and the righteous walk in them; But the rebellious stumble in them.
主耶稣！智慧人, 通达人, 必然会有圆满终点的理念. 我的眼目当定睛在正直和义人的身上, 我的心当单单专注效法正直和义人身上的善行. 主啊！求祢打开我被蒙蔽的眼睛, 能够察觉身边敬畏神的人. 求主加添力量, 我不再畏惧, 也不再自卑, 以虚心跟随敬畏神的人, 朝向圆满的终点.
何14:4-5
我必医治他们背道的病、甘心爱他们、因为我的怒气向他们转消。我必向以色列如甘露、他必如百合花开放、如利巴嫩的树木扎根。
"I will heal their waywardness. I will love them freely; for my anger is turned away from him. I will be like the dew to Israel. He will blossom like the lily, and send down his roots like Lebanon.
主耶稣！ 我在思想, 人的肉体, 心理, 精神会生病, 原来与神反对, 背道, 也是病, 需要被医治. 主啊！我完全相信, 天父以不变的爱, 完全的爱来爱我. 天父甘心爱我, 不是因为我很特别, 只因为, 我是他的孩子.
何13:14
我必救赎他们脱离阴间、救赎他们脱离死亡．死亡阿、你的灾害在哪里呢．阴间哪、你的毁灭在哪里呢．在我眼前绝无后悔之事。
I will ransom them from the power of Sheol. I will redeem them from death! Death, where are your plagues? Sheol, where is your destruction? "Compassion will be hidden from my eyes.
主耶稣！神要擦去我们一切的眼泪. 不再有死亡, 也不再有悲哀、哭号, 疼痛, 因为以前的事都过去了. 哈利路亚, 主啊！神必救赎我们脱离阴间, 我们耐心等候新天新地的降临.
何13:9
以色列阿、你与我反对、就是反对帮助你的、自取败坏。
You are destroyed, Israel, because you are against me, against your help.
主耶稣！我听到了, 神的话说, 与神反对的自取败坏. 几时我们没有读经祷告, 寻求神的智慧, 就会很容易靠自己的聪明处理事情, 让与神反对的思维来主导我们的心思意念. 主啊！我承认, 我和家人, 时常有与神反对的想法, 求祢赦免我们, 求祢的丰满恩典临近我们.
何13:1
从前以法莲说话、人都战兢、他在以色列中居处高位、但他在事奉巴力的事上犯罪就死了。
When Ephraim spoke, there was trembling. He exalted himself in Israel, but when he became guilty in Baal, he died.
主耶稣！亚当和夏娃因不听从神的吩咐, 却是听蛇的话, 吃了分别善恶的果子. 听从蛇的话, 等于事奉它. 主啊！每早晨, 我要提醒自己, 要听从神的话, 要读神的话, 晓得一切假消息, 假新闻, 都是蛇在说话. 求圣灵求相助, 不再听从假新闻, 不事奉假新闻背后的主人, 魔鬼撒旦.
何12:12
从前雅各逃到亚兰地、以色列为得妻服事人、为得妻与人放羊。
Jacob fled into the country of Aram, and Israel served to get a wife, and for a wife he tended flocks and herds.
主耶苏！ 何西亚写这一段历史, 雅各逃避哥哥的追杀, 服事拉班为了娶利百加. 我感受到神在提醒我, 人可以为了爱而付出一切. 使徒保罗为爱基督的缘故, 就以软弱, 凌辱, 急难, 逼迫, 困苦, 为可喜乐的. 主啊！耶和华神是我的力量, 是我所爱的, 我愿意为神付出一切.
何12:1,7-8
以法莲吃风、且追赶东风．时常增添虚谎和强暴．与亚述立约、把油送到埃及。以法莲是商人、手里有诡诈的天平、爱行欺骗。以法莲说、我果然成了富足、得了财宝．我所劳碌得来的、人必不见有甚么不义、可算为罪的。
Ephraim feeds on wind, and chases the east wind. He continually multiplies lies and desolation. They make a covenant with Assyria, and oil is carried into Egypt. A merchant has dishonest scales in his hand. He loves to defraud. Ephraim said, "Surely I have become rich, I have found myself wealth. In all my wealth they won't find in me any iniquity that is sin."
主耶稣！以法莲的聪明反被聪明误，被自己所骗。主啊！神赐给我们思维的能力，我要用这能力来思考神所喜悦的经商法则，有神的公义，正直，和诚信。叫我的言行举止都是在荣耀神的名。
何11:9-11
我必不发猛烈的怒气、也不再毁灭以法莲、因我是神、并非世人、是你们中间的圣者、我必不在怒中临到你们。耶和华必如狮子吼叫、子民必跟随他、他一吼叫、他们就从西方急速而来。他们必如雀鸟从埃及急速而来、又如鸽子从亚述地来到．我必使他们住自己的房屋、这是耶和华说的。
I will not execute the fierceness of my anger. I will not return to destroy Ephraim: for I am God, and not man; the Holy One in the midst of you; and I will not come in wrath. They will walk after Yahweh, who will roar like a lion; for he will roar, and the children will come trembling from the west. They will come trembling like a bird out of Egypt, and like a dove out of the land of Assyria; and I will settle them in their houses," says Yahweh.
主耶稣！我的心充满感恩，天父对世人的大爱，以仁义，慈爱，怜悯，公正，诚实聘我们，且预备全备的救恩，为蒙恩得救的人预备永恒的住所。阿爸，父啊！除祢以外，别无真神。祢是我灵魂的归属。
何11:1-2,8
以色列年幼的时候我爱他、就从埃及召出我的儿子来。先知越发招呼他们、他们越发走开、向诸巴力献祭、给雕刻的偶像烧香。以法莲哪、我怎能舍弃你、以色列阿、我怎能弃绝你、我怎能使你如押玛、怎能使你如洗扁、我回心转意、我的怜爱大大发动。
"When Israel was a child, then I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. They called to them, so they went from them. They sacrificed to the Baals, and burned incense to engraved images. "How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I make you like Zeboiim? My heart is turned within me, my compassion is aroused.
主耶稣！耶和华神说，我怎能弃绝你。这句话有如强大的磁力，将我从远处吸回。主啊！这是天父永恒不变的爱，天父永无止尽的怜悯，天父无与相比的恩典。耶和华爱我的神，我要一生敬畏祢的话。
何10:12
你们要为自己栽种公义、就能收割慈爱、现今正是寻求耶和华的时候、你们要开垦荒地、等他临到、使公义如雨降在你们身上。
Sow to yourselves in righteousness, reap according to kindness. Break up your fallow ground; for it is time to seek Yahweh, until he comes and rains righteousness on you.
主耶稣！眼目，肉体，骄傲的私欲，无时无刻在诱惑人，而公义的光辉变的暗淡。没有公义的爱心是恶的，国家没有公义，必落入黑暗。主啊！我的爱心要栽种在公义，正直，怜悯，诚实的土地上。
何10:1-2
以色列是茂盛的葡萄树、结果繁多、果子越多、就越增添祭坛．地土越肥美、就越造美丽的柱像。他们心怀二意、现今要定为有罪．耶和华必拆毁他们的祭坛、毁坏他们的柱像。
Israel is a luxuriant vine that puts forth his fruit. According to the abundance of his fruit he has multiplied his altars. As their land has prospered, they have adorned their sacred stones.
Their heart is divided. Now they will be found guilty. He will demolish their altars. He will destroy their sacred stones.
主耶稣！祢的话说，心怀二意，神不喜悦，他们的祷告，神不垂听。主啊！求祢光照我们的心思意念，对神的吩咐有疑惑不解，对神仆人的劝勉存疑惑不信任的，求祢拔出我们顽梗的思路，拆毁我心中偶像的祭坛。
何9:11,16-17
至于以法莲人、他们的荣耀必如鸟飞去、必不生产、不怀胎、不成孕。以法莲受责罚、根本枯干、必不能结果、即或生产、我必杀他们所生的爱子。我的神必弃绝他们、因为他们不听从他．他们也必飘流在列国中。
As for Ephraim, their glory will fly away like a bird. There will be no birth, none with child, and no conception. Ephraim is struck. Their root has dried up. They will bear no fruit. Even though they bring forth, yet I will kill the beloved ones of their womb." My God will cast them away, because they did not listen to him; and they will be wanderers among the nations.
主耶稣！以法连原本是昌盛，多结果子，是荣耀的，为何沦落到四处飘流。因为以法连背弃耶和华神。主啊！我们有不能活出昌盛，多结果子的生命，求圣灵光照，引导我们从顽梗中回转。
何8:14
以色列忘记造他的主、建造宫殿．犹大多造坚固城、我却要降火焚烧他的城邑、烧灭其中的宫殿。
For Israel has forgotten his Maker and built palaces; and Judah has multiplied fortified cities; but I will send a fire on his cities, and it will devour its fortresses."
主耶稣！我想起神的话说，你要记念耶和华你的神、因为得货财的力量是他给你的，为要坚定他向你列祖起誓所立的约。你若忘记耶和华你的神，随从别神，事奉敬拜，你们必定灭亡。主啊！什么时候我们心中充满私欲，所作的都为了满足自己，忘记家人身心灵的需要，求主责备，管教我。
何8:12
我为他写了律法万条、他却以为与他毫无关涉。
I wrote for him the many things of my law; but they were regarded as a strange thing.
主耶稣！神对以色列的爱，把各种各样的危害清楚写明，以色列民却把神的保护看成辖制。神就是爱，神的命令也是爱。爱神的也会爱的律法。主啊！我爱祢，我喜爱神的法则，诫命，典章。
何8:11
以法莲增添祭坛取罪、因此、祭坛使他犯罪。
Because Ephraim has multiplied altars for sinning, they became for him altars for sinning.
主耶稣！我晓得以法莲的首城是撒玛利亚，以法莲跟随当地筑坛的文化，亲近偶像。主啊！我们居住的地方，不认识神的人四处筑坛，在树下，办公室，交通入口，大厦门前。求祢光照我们的心，赐给我们敬畏神的智慧，不畏惧它们，也不会向这些偶像献祭。
何8:5,6
撒玛利亚阿、耶和华已经丢弃你的牛犊．我的怒气向拜牛犊的人发作．他们到几时方能无罪呢。这牛犊出于以色列、是匠人所造的、并不是神．撒玛利亚的牛犊、必被打碎。
Let Samaria throw out his calf idol! My anger burns against them! How long will it be until they are capable of purity? For this is even from Israel! The workman made it, and it is no God; indeed, the calf of Samaria shall be broken in pieces.
主耶稣！以色列民制作牛犊，让撒玛利亚去膜拜，惹神的忿怒。制作偶像，膜拜偶像，都是神所憎恶的。神的怒气向拜偶像的人发作。主啊！我向祢求敬畏神的智慧，凡是神所憎恶的任何偶像，在我心里，家里，我都要丢弃。
何8:2-4
他们必呼叫我说、我的神阿、我们以色列认识你了。以色列丢弃良善、仇敌必追逼他。他们立君王、却不由我、他们立首领、我却不认．他们用金银为自己制造偶像、以致被剪除。
They cry to me, 'My God, we Israel acknowledge you!' Israel has cast off that which is good. The enemy will pursue him. They have set up kings, but not by me. They have made princes, and I didn't approve. Of their silver and their gold they have made themselves idols, that they may be cut off.
主耶稣！我想起，祢说，当那日必有许多人对祢说主阿，主阿，我们不是祢的名传道，奉祢的名赶鬼，奉祢的名行许多异能么。祢就明明的告诉他们说，我从来不认识你们，你们这些作恶的人，离开我去吧。主啊！他们把神的真理当做谋生的工具，毫无敬畏神的心。求主保守我的心，到年老都要敬畏神的智慧。
何7:13,16
他们因离弃我、必定有祸、因违背我、必被毁灭．我虽要救赎他们、他们却向我说谎。他们归向、却不归向至上者．他们如同翻背的弓．他们的首领必因舌头的狂傲倒在刀下．这在埃及地必作人的讥笑。
Woe to them! For they have wandered from me. Destruction to them! For they have trespassed against me. Though I would redeem them, yet they have spoken lies against me. They return, but not to the Most High. They are like a faulty bow. Their princes will fall by the sword for the rage of their tongue. This will be their derision in the land of Egypt.
主耶稣！我们说谎，以为是对人说，却不晓得在灵界里让恶者留下破口，攻击我和家人。主啊！求祢赦免我狂傲，说谎的过犯，求祢用祢大能的手，阻挡恶者对我和家人的攻击。
何7:10
以色列的骄傲当面见证自己、虽遭遇这一切、他们仍不归向耶和华他们的神、也不寻求他。
The pride of Israel testifies to his face; yet they haven't returned to Yahweh their God, nor sought him, for all this.
主耶稣！以色列民受到仇敌的欺压，却不晓得是他们的骄傲带来的后果。主啊！求圣灵光照我内心的隐密处，让我看到心里骄傲之处。我要及时醒悟，归回耶和华神，寻求主的面，晓得如何活出敬畏神的生命。
何6:11
犹大阿、我使被掳之民归回的时候、必有为你所命定的收场。
"Also, Judah, there is a harvest appointed for you, when I restore the fortunes of my people.
主耶稣！我想起，经上有句话说，事情的终局强如事情的起头。天父的慈爱，永恒不变。犹大虽然软弱离弃神，神对犹大的爱，由始至终不变。主啊！我看见在末日，天父的爱将更大的向世人显明，正如以赛亚书65:1 所说的 ，素来没有访问神的，现在求问神。没有寻找神的，神要叫他们遇见。没有称为神名下的，神对他们说，我在这里，我在这里。
何6:3
我们务要认识耶和华、竭力追求认识他．他出现确如晨光、他必临到我们像甘雨、像滋润田地的春雨。
Let us acknowledge Yahweh. Let us press on to know Yahweh. As surely as the sun rises, Yahweh will appear. He will come to us like the rain, like the spring rain that waters the earth."
主耶稣！运动员竭力追求奖杯，企业家竭力追求业绩，政治家竭力追求权力。主啊！我说，祢是我生命的保障，我要一生住在耶和华神的殿中，我问自己，我真的认识耶和华神吗？我有竭力追求认识祢吗？求祢施恩赐福于我，竭力追求更多认识神的荣耀，在凡事上荣耀天父的名。
何6:1-2
来吧、我们归向耶和华．他撕裂我们、也必医治．他打伤我们、也必缠裹。过两天他必使我们苏醒、第三天他必使我们兴起、我们就在他面前得以存活。
"Come, and let us return to Yahweh; for he has torn us to pieces, and he will heal us; he has injured us, and he will bind up our wounds. After two days he will revive us. On the third day he will raise us up, and we will live before him.
主耶稣！我知道了，神的管教，难免会感到痛苦。能在痛苦中明白天父的爱，这是何等的祝福。主啊！冠状病毒疫情的受害者，求祢向他们施恩，赐给他们心里的智慧，在痛苦中认识神的慈爱，有勇气归向耶和华。
何5:15
我要回到原处、等他们自觉有罪、〔或作承认己罪〕寻求我面、他们在急难的时候必切切寻求我。
I will go and return to my place, until they acknowledge their offense, and seek my face. In their affliction they will seek me earnestly."
主耶稣！我要感谢天父，我在何处跌倒，也要在那里认罪，悔改，归回，归向神。因为，神在原处等候我的归回。我不再需要掩饰我的软弱，因为靠着主的恩典，我可以再次刚强起来。主啊！什么时候我有软弱的地方，我要及时拥抱主的信实，拥抱主的怜悯。靠主的恩典，刚强壮胆，战胜软弱。
何4:14
你们的女儿淫乱、你们的新妇行淫、我却不惩罚他们、因为你们自己离群与娼妓同居、与妓女一同献祭、这无知的民、必致倾倒。
I will not punish your daughters when they play the prostitute, nor your brides when they commit adultery; because the men consort with prostitutes, and they sacrifice with the shrine prostitutes; so the people without understanding will come to ruin.
主耶稣！我们误解了神的意思，犯罪未受到刑罚，以为神不会惩罚。神的话，说，罪的工价就是死。那以情欲撒种的，要收取败坏。主啊！求祢怜悯我和我的一家，我们有亏欠神荣耀的行为，求祢赦免。
何4:11
奸淫和酒、并新酒、夺去人的心。
Prostitution, wine, and new wine take away understanding.
主耶稣！贪财为万恶之根。今早，我省察我内心深处，所喜爱的美食，娱乐，所喜悦的朋友圈，同时回顾过去在何处犯上的贪婪，贪吃，贪玩。主啊！求祢的光照明我内心深处有贪心的地方，好叫我得着悔改归正的恩典，不让诱惑在心中存留。
何4:6
我的民因无知识而灭亡．你弃掉知识、我也必弃掉你、使你不再给我作祭司．你既忘了你神的律法、我也必忘记你的儿女。
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you, that you may be no priest to me. Because you have forgotten your God's law, I will also forget your children.
主耶稣！人一旦有了私心，就会不把神的良善，仁爱，公平，怜悯，诚实，话语当作宝贝存在心里。主啊！我要告诉自己，不可以把神给忘了，每早晨我都要告诉自己，要听神的话，要记得神的公义和仁慈。晚上，也要告诉自己，要感谢天父今天的恩典。
何3:5
后来以色列人必归回、寻求他们的 神耶和华、和他们的王大卫．在末后的日子、必以敬畏的心归向耶和华、领受他的恩惠。
Afterward the children of Israel shall return, and seek Yahweh their God, and David their king, and shall come with trembling to Yahweh and to his blessings in the last days.
主耶稣！末日以色列民必归回，寻求耶和华，他们列祖的神。这是天父的心意，是天上的旨意。主啊！这日子必速速来到，以色列民和外邦人的心都正朝向耶路撒冷，要在东门迎接主祢的再来。
何3:1
耶和华对我说、你再去爱一个淫妇、就是他情人所爱的、好象以色列人、虽然偏向别神、喜爱葡萄饼、耶和华还是爱他们。
Yahweh said to me, "Go again, love a woman loved by another, and an adulteress, even as Yahweh loves the children of Israel, though they turn to other gods, and love cakes of raisins."
主耶稣！以色列民离弃耶和华神，向神背逆，耶和华还是爱他们，因着与亚伯拉罕所立的盐约。主啊！世人离弃造他们的神，将荣耀归给人手造的神，但是，耶和华神爱世人，祢在十字架上流出宝血舍命，神的爱在此向世人显明。
何2:23
我必将他种在这地、素不蒙怜悯的、我必怜悯、本非我民的、我必对他说、你是我的民、他必说、你是我的神。
I will sow her to me in the earth; and I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; and I will tell those who were not my people, 'You are my people;' and they will say, 'My God!'"
主耶稣！我从神与以色列民的关系中，看到神爱世人，不愿一人沉沦，乃是要万人得救的一幕。这正是，祢在十字架上完成的救赎恩典，要救世人，归向至高神。主啊！愿天父的旨意行在地上。
何2:19-22
我必聘你永远归我为妻、以仁义、公平、慈爱、怜悯聘你归我．也以诚实聘你归我、你就必认识我耶和华。耶和华说、那日我必应允、我必应允天、天必应允地。地必应允五谷、新酒、和油、这些必应允耶斯列民。
I will betroth you to me forever. Yes, I will betroth you to me in righteousness, in justice, in loving kindness, and in compassion. I will even betroth you to me in faithfulness; and you shall know Yahweh. It will happen in that day, I will respond," says Yahweh, "I will respond to the heavens, and they will respond to the earth;
and the earth will respond to the grain, and the new wine, and the oil; and they will respond to Jezreel.
主耶稣！当我看到神的聘礼，心中的感动，非笔墨能以形容。我又看见十字架上的救恩，心中的感动加倍。主啊！我要一生一世，尽心尽力，来爱神，谨慎自守，遵循主道。
何2:18
当那日我必为我的民、与田野的走兽、和空中的飞鸟、并地上的昆虫立约．又必在国中折断弓刀、止息争战、使他们安然躺卧。
In that day I will make a covenant for them with the animals of the field, and with the birds of the sky, and with the creeping things of the ground. I will break the bow, the sword, and the battle out of the land, and will make them lie down safely.
主耶稣！我观看，世上许多人不能够安然躺卧。穷乏人，富足人是如此，年轻人，老年人也是如此。这世界的人，所缺乏的是心灵里的平安。主啊！祢的话说，这世界有苦难，在祢里面有平安。我们信靠祢，顺服神的命令，借助圣灵的相助，在苦难，患难中，有主耶稣基督的平安，可以安然躺卧。
何2:14，16
后来我必劝导他、领他到旷野、对他说安慰的话．..耶和华说、那日你必称呼我伊施、〔就是我夫的意思〕不再称呼我巴力、〔就是我主的意思〕。
"Therefore behold, I will allure her, and bring her into the wilderness, and speak tenderly to her...It will be in that day," says Yahweh, "that you will call me 'my husband,' and no longer call me 'my master.'
主耶稣！神离弃我们不过是片时，因神的公义恒久不变。神爱我们是一生之久，因神的慈爱永远长存。主啊！因为神的怒气不过是转眼之间，他的恩典乃是一生之久。一宿虽然有哭泣，早晨便必欢呼。
何2:6-7
因此、我必用荆棘堵塞他的道、筑墙挡住他、使他找不着路。他必追随所爱的、却追不上、他必寻找他们、却寻不见、便说、我要归回前夫、因我那时的光景比如今还好。
Therefore behold, I will hedge up your way with thorns, and I will build a wall against her, that she can't find her way. She will follow after her lovers, but she won't overtake them; and she will seek them, but won't find them. Then she will say, 'I will go and return to my first husband; for then was it better with me than now.'
主耶稣！我看到这经文，想到2019冠状病毒使全球封国封城，人们不能像之前飞行经商，旅游，追逐心中所好。主啊！愿神的百姓有智慧，善用这时机，归向神，整顿家庭，恢复家庭美好关系，迎接主的再来。
何1:10-11
然而以色列的人数必如海沙、不可量、不可数．从前在甚么地方对他们说、你们不是我的子民、将来在那里必对他们说、你们是永生神的儿子。犹大人和以色列人必一同聚集，为自己立一个首领，从被掳之地上来，因为耶斯列的日子必为大日。
Yet the number of the children of Israel will be as the sand of the sea, which can't be measured nor numbered; and it will come to pass that, in the place where it was said to them, 'You are not my people,' they will be called 'sons of the living God.' The children of Judah and the children of Israel will be gathered together, and they will appoint themselves one head, and will go up from the land; for great will be the day of Jezreel.
主耶稣！我再次看见耶和华神对以色列民的慈爱是如此坚定。主啊！在何西亚身上，我看到基督的样式。何西亚的生命激励着我，我是上帝的孩子，要活出基督的生命，活出坚韧不变的爱，像满有慈爱的天父。。
何1:3-4
于是何西阿去娶了滴拉音的女儿歌篾．这妇人怀孕、给他生了一个儿子。耶和华对何西阿说、给他起名叫耶斯列、因为再过片时、我必讨耶户家在耶斯列杀人流血的罪、也必使以色列家的国灭绝。
So he went and took Gomer the daughter of Diblaim; and she conceived, and bore him a son. Yahweh said to him, "Call his name Jezreel; for yet a little while, and I will avenge the blood of Jezreel on the house of Jehu, and will cause the kingdom of the house of Israel to cease.
主耶稣！我看见神的旨意高过人的意念，神吩咐何西亚娶淫妇为妻，神还为这孩子取名为神的后裔(耶斯列)。若是何西亚生在这时代，人或许会说他有幻想症，走火入魔。然而，这时代需要像何西亚的人，愿意付上任何代价，唯愿神的旨意成就。主啊！求祢的旨意成就在我的身上。
何1:2
耶和华初次与何西阿说话、对他说、你去娶淫妇为妻、也收那从淫乱所生的儿女、因为这地大行淫乱、离弃耶和华。
When Yahweh spoke at first by Hosea, Yahweh said to Hosea, "Go, take for yourself a wife of prostitution and children of unfaithfulness; for the land commits great adultery, forsaking Yahweh."
主耶稣！何西阿是个什么样的人?神指示他去做一件不可思议的事，而且这是他初次听到就顺服。主啊！感谢祢向我施恩，我是何等有福。有圣灵的光照，有圣经的启示，有神的话语。我要效法何西阿听见神的话，二话不说，单纯顺服的心。
但12:11-13
从除掉常献的燔祭、并设立那行毁坏可憎之物的时候、必有一千二百九十日。等到一千三百三十五日的、那人便为有福。你且去等候结局、因为你必安歇．到了末期、你必起来、享受你的福分。
From the time that the continual burnt offering shall be taken away, and the abomination that makes desolate set up, there shall be one thousand two hundred ninety days. Blessed is he who waits, and comes to the one thousand three hundred thirty-five days. But go you your way until the end; for you shall rest, and shall stand in your lot, at the end of the days.
主耶稣！人所要知道的，神已经说了，日子也已经定下，在末日圣殿将会被恶者践踏。主啊！我是蒙福的人，我所要的回应，就是耐心等待，不因为恶者的所作所为，世界局势，感到惊恐。我要平静等候，与祢同坐席，享受天父同在，永远的福乐。
但12:3
智慧人必发光、如同天上的光．那使多人归义的、必发光如星、直到永永远远。
Those who are wise shall shine as the brightness of the expanse; and those who turn many to righteousness as the stars forever and ever.
主耶稣！感谢天父的恩典，感谢圣灵的光照，感谢主的教诲。今早，神的话，带给我极大的喜乐和盼望，使我对接下该做的事感到光奋，充满信心。主啊！智慧人必发光，我要更深入，更多的认识，在更多的事上敬畏神的名。更多活出天父性情的生命，更像祢。
但12:1，2
那时保佑你本国之民的天使长米迦勒、必站起来．并且有大艰难、从有国以来直到此时、没有这样的．你本国的民中、凡名录在册上的、必得拯救。睡在尘埃中的、必有多人复醒．其中有得永生的、有受羞辱永远被憎恶的。
"At that time shall Michael stand up, the great prince who stands for the children of your people; and there shall be a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation even to that same time: and at that time your people shall be delivered, everyone who shall be found written in the book. Many of those who sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt.
主耶稣！我看到末日大结局，日期已定，也是点名的时候。主啊！感谢祢全备的救赎恩典，在神的生命册上，有我和家人的名字记录在册上。
但11:27，29，35
至于这二王、他们心怀恶计、同席说谎、计谋却不成就、因为到了定期、事就了结。..到了定期、他必返回、来到南方、后一次、却不如前一次、..智慧人中有些仆倒的、为要熬炼其余的人、使他们清净洁白、直到末了、因为到了定期、事就了结。
As for both these kings, their hearts shall be to do mischief, and they shall speak lies at one table: but it shall not prosper; for yet the end shall be at the time appointed...At the time appointed he shall return, and come into the south; but it shall not be in the latter time as it was in the former...Some of those who are wise shall fall, to refine them, and to purify, and to make them white, even to the time of the end; because it is yet for the time appointed.
主耶稣！但以理看见未来的异象，这一切都指向神国度降临的日子。主啊！我要做好准备，当智慧人中有些仆倒的时候，我晓得是为要熬炼其余的人，使他们清净洁白、直到末了，因为到了定期，事就了结。
但10:19-20
他说、大蒙眷爱的人哪、不要惧怕、愿你平安、你总要坚强．他一向我说话、我便觉得有力量、说、我主请说、因你使我有力量。他就说、你知道我为何来见你么、现在我要回去与波斯的魔君争战、我去后希腊的魔君必来。
He said, "Greatly beloved man, don't be afraid: peace be to you, be strong, yes, be strong." When he spoke to me, I was strengthened, and said, "Let my lord speak; for you have strengthened me." Then he said, "Do you know why I have come to you? Now I will return to fight with the prince of Persia. When I go forth, behold, the prince of Greece shall come.
主耶稣！我相信，承受救恩的人有天使的帮助恢复心力。主啊！我相信，我是神所爱的孩子。我宣告，我是神所眷顾，有耶和华神为我的拯救，有天使为我与恶魔争战。我只要刚强壮胆，信靠耶稣基督的话，必得全胜。
但10:16-17
不料、有一位像人的、摸我的嘴唇、我便开口向那站在我面前的说、我主阿、因见这异象我大大愁苦、毫无气力。我主的仆人怎能与我主说话呢．我一见异象就浑身无力、毫无气息。
Behold, one in the likeness of the sons of men touched my lips: then I opened my mouth, and spoke and said to him who stood before me, my lord, by reason of the vision my sorrows are turned on me, and I retain no strength.
For how can the servant of this my lord talk with this my lord? for as for me, immediately there remained no strength in me, neither was there breath left in me.
主耶稣！敬畏神的人，看到异象，听到神的话，敬畏神的心悠然升起。主啊！求祢恢复我的心，在灵修，读经，敬拜神时，能够敏锐神的公义，圣洁。越来越多的敬畏神，更多的经历神奇妙的同在同行。
但10:2,3
当那时、我但以理悲伤了三个七日。美味我没有吃、酒肉没有入我的口、也没有用油抹我的身、直到满了三个七日。
In those days I, Daniel, was mourning three whole weeks.
I ate no pleasant bread, neither came flesh nor wine into my mouth, neither did I anoint myself at all, until three whole weeks were fulfilled.
主耶稣！但以理第一天的禁食祷告，已经升到耶和华神那里，天使也前往相助，却遇到波斯国的魔君 而被阻挠。然而，神的另一位天使与波斯国的魔君争战，让传信息的天使得于完成使命。主啊！我现在相信，奉主名祷告，用神话语的宣告，在灵界里是大有能力，大有作为。我不再置疑神有没有听见我的祈祷，我只要专心专注，祈祷，敬拜，全心信靠耶和华神，我的阿爸，天父。
但10:7-8
这异象、惟有我但以理一人看见、同着我的人没有看见、他们却大大战兢、逃跑隐藏、只剩下我一人．我见了这大异象便浑身无力、面貌失色、毫无气力。
I, Daniel, alone saw the vision; for the men who were with me didn't see the vision; but a great quaking fell on them, and they fled to hide themselves. So I was left alone, and saw this great vision, and there remained no strength in me; for my comeliness was turned in me into corruption, and I retained no strength.
主耶稣！我记得，祢的祈祷，说，父阿，愿你荣耀你的名，当时就有声音从天上来说，我已经荣耀了我的名，还要再荣耀。旁边的人以为是在打雷。主啊！求主圣灵带领我，一步一步学习但以理的生命，能够蒙神的眷爱，有一天，可以看见异象，又听见天使说话的声音。
但9:21
我正祷告的时候、先前在异象中所见的那位加百列、奉命迅速飞来、约在献晚祭的时候、按手在我身上。他指教我说、但以理阿、现在我出来要使你有智慧、有聪明。
yes, while I was speaking in prayer, the man Gabriel, whom I had seen in the vision at the beginning, being caused to fly swiftly, touched me about the time of the evening offering. He instructed me, and talked with me, and said, Daniel, I am now come forth to give you wisdom and understanding.
主耶稣！我好兴奋，我们奉祢的名祈求祷告，有天使的服事，要给我们智慧，有聪明。主啊！原来祈祷要做的事，人可以做的，能够做的，应该做的，与神旨意对齐的祈祷，神都会赐给我们能力去完成所求的。阿们！
约14:13~14
13「你们奉我的名无论求什么，我都会成全，使父在子的身上得荣耀。14你们如果奉我的名求什么，我就会成全。」
在我们的信仰生活中，常常听到有人这样说：「只要你奉主耶稣的名向神求，无论是什么，祂都会成就。」但在实际的祷告经历中，我们却发觉不是这样—有太多的祷告神没有成全！
圣经告诉我们祷告不蒙悦纳有以下原因：
一、我们的生命中有明显或隐而未现的罪未向主承认（参诗66:18；赛59:1~2）；
二、所求的事是出于自私自利，过于我们需要（参雅4:3）；
三、祷告的时候根本没有信心，带着疑惑（参雅1:6~7）；
四、人际关系上出现很大问题，却没有好好面对和处理（参太5:23~24；彼前3:7）；
五、祷告本身没有问题，但神在祂的永恒计划中另有安排。
圣经又告诉我们，以下这样的祷告蒙神悦纳：
一、在神眼中是行为正直的人所作的祷告（参诗34:15；雅5:16）；
二、真心真意、毫无虚伪的祷告（参诗145:18）；
三、带着谦卑的心、自认不配的祷告（参路18:9~14）；
四、有信心、不三心两意的祷告（参太6:6；雅1:8、太21:22）。
所以当门徒询问耶稣，他们应当如何祷告时，主耶稣就教导他们，祷告不是做给人看，也不要像未信的人那样絮絮不休。在祷告中要以神的荣耀为最重要的目的（太6:5~13），当我们如此行，祈求才会得蒙神的悦纳和垂听。因此，当我们抓着神的应许时，不要忘记当中真正的意义，免得因断章取义，误解神话语而失落了当中的应许。
今天，你的祷告生活是朝着神教导的方向走吗？有什么地方需要修正吗？好好祷告，求神帮助我们认识祈祷应有的态度和内涵，神必定成就我们这样的祈求。
诚心祷告
亲爱的天父，我要感谢祢！因为你曾应许，只要奉耶稣的名无论求什么，祢都会成全。是的，主！我知道，只要我不是自高自大、活在罪恶之中，只要我的祈求不是为了自己的享乐，祢必定成就。主！求祢帮助我，让我从祷告中更认识祢的伟大，以致我能更谦卑顺服。主！求祢帮助我，让我从祷告中认识祢的圣洁，以致我对罪更敏感，能够成为祢喜悦的人。奉主耶稣名求，阿们！

但9:19-20
求主垂听、求主赦免、求主应允而行、为你自己不要迟延、我的神阿、因这城和这民、都是称为你名下的。我说话、祷告、承认我的罪、和本国之民以色列的罪、为我神的圣山、在耶和华我神面前恳求．
Lord, hear; Lord, forgive; Lord, listen and do; don't defer, for your own sake, my God, because your city and your people are called by your name. While I was speaking, and praying, and confessing my sin and the sin of my people Israel, and presenting my supplication before Yahweh my God for the holy mountain of my God;
主耶稣！但以理灵命的成熟度是我渴望的。主啊！但以理的三求：求主垂听，求主赦免，求主应允而行。和但以理的说话，祷告，认罪的典范，更是我所要学习的。
但9:17-18
我们的神阿、现在求你垂听仆人的祈祷恳求、为自己使脸光照你荒凉的圣所。我的神阿、求你侧耳而听、睁眼而看、眷顾我们荒凉之地、和称为你名下的城．我们在你面前恳求、原不是因自己的义、乃因你的大怜悯。
Now therefore, our God, listen to the prayer of your servant, and to his petitions, and cause your face to shine on your sanctuary that is desolate, for the Lord's sake. My God, turn your ear, and hear; open your eyes, and see our desolations, and the city which is called by your name: for we do not present our petitions before you for our righteousness, but for your great mercies' sake.
主耶稣！我们借着祢的名，蒙圣灵的帮助，来到父神面前恳求祷告，这一切都是恩典，没有什么可夸口的。主啊！求祢施恩，记念耶路撒冷，祢名下的圣城，速速成就神对圣城的命定，预备迎接祢的再来。
但9:13
这一切灾祸临到我们身上、是照摩西律法上所写的、我们却没有求耶和华我们神的恩典、使我们回头离开罪孽、明白你的真理。
As it is written in the law of Moses, all this evil has come on us: yet have we not entreated the favor of Yahweh our God, that we should turn from our iniquities, and have discernment in your truth.
主耶稣！2019冠状病毒疫情仍处于高峰，不认识祢名的，不晓得如何求向祢告，认识祢名的，求疫情早点过去，疫苗早点问市。主啊！今天的经文，叫我更清楚如何为疫情代求，求耶和华我们神的恩典，使我们回头离开罪孽，明白祢的真理。
但9:11
以色列众人都犯了你的律法、偏行、不听从你的话、因此、在你仆人摩西律法上所写的咒诅、和誓言、都倾在我们身上、因我们得罪了神。
Yes, all Israel have transgressed your law, turning aside, that they should not obey your voice: therefore the curse and the oath written in the law of Moses the servant of God has been poured out on us; for we have sinned against him.
主耶稣！今早经文让我想到美国世贸大厦911事件，美国近代国家领导偏离先贤敬畏神的心，腐败的文化，使国家陷入混乱。主啊！求祢赐福于我祖国的领导，不跟随美国腐败的文化。他们或许不认识祢，求祢保守他们好的价值观，有智慧能力拒绝同性合法化，不逼迫基督教徒。
但9:5
我们犯罪作孽、行恶叛逆、偏离你的诫命典章．
We have sinned, and have dealt perversely, and have done wickedly, and have rebelled, even turning aside from your precepts and from your ordinances.
主耶稣！我看到敬畏神的人的典范，像尼西米，但以理，他们与国民认同，犯罪作孽，行恶叛逆，偏离神的诫命典章，亏欠神的荣耀，虽然自己没有效法不义的百姓。主啊！我要为我的祖国恳求祢，我们犯罪作孽，求祢施恩，赐给我们有知罪，悔改的心。
但9:2-3
就是他在位第一年、我但以理从书上得知耶和华的话临到先知耶利米、论耶路撒冷荒凉的年数、七十年为满。我便禁食、披麻蒙灰、定意向主神祈祷恳求。
in the first year of his reign I, Daniel, understood by the books the number of the years about which the word of Yahweh came to Jeremiah the prophet, for the accomplishing of the desolations of Jerusalem, even seventy years. I set my face to the Lord God, to seek by prayer and petitions, with fasting and sackcloth and ashes.
主耶稣！我被但以理先知对圣经记载的认真态度所吸引。但以理立刻回应，向耶和华神祈祷，认罪。主阿！守约施慈爱，大而可畏的神。我定意向神求怜悯，因耶和华神有赦罪之恩，我可以待立在神的面前，不至灭亡。
但8:17，26
他便来到我所站的地方．他一来、我就惊慌俯伏在地．他对我说、人子阿、你要明白、因为这是关乎末后的异象。..所说二千三百日的异象是真的、但你要将这异象封住、因为关乎后来许多的日子。
So he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was frightened, and fell on my face: but he said to me, Understand, son of man; for the vision belongs to the time of the end...The vision of the evenings and mornings which has been told is true: but seal up the vision; for it belongs to many days .
主耶稣！我在思想，为什么神让但以理先知看到异象，又吩咐他将这异象封住。神让但以理负责领受，并记载下来。他还昏迷不醒，病了数日，为这异象惊奇，说，无人能明白其中的意思。主啊！我开始明白一件事，神叫我们领受异象，却不一定会叫我们明白异象的意思。感谢神，求祢让我可以领受，关乎未来许多日子异象。
但8:17-18
他便来到我所站的地方．他一来、我就惊慌俯伏在地．他对我说、人子阿、你要明白、因为这是关乎末后的异象。他与我说话的时候、我面伏在地沉睡．他就摸我、扶我站起来。
So he came near where I stood; and when he came, I was frightened, and fell on my face: but he said to me, Understand, son of man; for the vision belongs to the time of the end. Now as he was speaking with me, I fell into a deep sleep with my face toward the ground; but he touched me, and set me upright.
主耶稣！我看到，好温心，好美的画面，天使长加百列与先知但以理的互动。主啊！但以理领受异象，伏在地上沉睡，给我的安慰，有时候祷告到睡去，不会再感到自责。
但8:15，16
我但以理见了这异象、愿意明白其中的意思、忽有一位形状像人的、站在我面前。我又听见乌莱河两岸中有人声呼叫说、加百列阿、要使此人明白这异象。
It happened, when I, even I Daniel, had seen the vision, that I sought to understand it; and behold, there stood before me as the appearance of a man. I heard a man's voice between the Ulai, which called, and said, Gabriel, make this man to understand the vision.
主耶稣！但以理看见天使长加百列，形状像人。我相信有天使，他们都是服役的灵，奉差遣为那将要承受救恩的人效力。主啊！求祢打开我属灵的眼睛，让我可以看到在身边帮助我的天使。
但8:13-14
我听见有一位圣者说话、又有一位圣者问那说话的圣者、说、这除掉常献的燔祭、和施行毁坏的罪过、将圣所与军旅践踏的异象、要到几时才应验呢。他对我说、到二千三百日圣所就必洁净。
Then I heard a holy one speaking; and another holy one said to that certain one who spoke, How long shall be the vision the continual , and the disobedience that makes desolate, to give both the sanctuary and the army to be trodden under foot? He said to me, To two thousand and three hundred evenings mornings; then shall the sanctuary be cleansed.
主耶稣！末日决战大结局是关乎圣所的洁净。主啊！祢再来的日子越迫近，我要把聚焦放在以色列圣城所发生的事，也要更加儆醒看守我的身体，持守自洁，预备迎接主的再来。
但7:21-22,27
我观看、见这角与圣民争战、胜了他们、直到亘古常在者来给至高者的圣民伸冤、圣民得国的时候就到了。...国度、权柄、和天下诸国的大权、必赐给至高者的圣民．他的国是永远的、一切掌权的都必事奉他、顺从他。
I saw, and the same horn made war with the saints, and prevailed against them; until the ancient of days came, and judgment was given to the saints of the Most High, and the time came that the saints possessed the kingdom. The kingdom and the dominion, and the greatness of the kingdoms under the whole sky, shall be given to the people of the saints of the Most High: his kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him.
主耶稣！我看见末日大决战的大结局，心中就有盼望。这也是在启示录17:14 所看到的一样，他们与羔羊争战，羔羊必胜过他们，因为羔羊是万主之主，万王之王。同着羔羊的，就是蒙召被选有忠心的人也必得胜。主啊！谢谢祢的选召，我要一生向主忠心，紧紧跟随主，与主同得胜。
但7:13-14
我在夜间的异象中观看、见有一位像人子的、驾着天云而来、被领到亘古常在者面前、得了权柄、荣耀、国度、使各方各国各族的人都事奉他．他的权柄是永远的、不能废去、他的国必不败坏。
I saw in the night visions, and behold, there came with the clouds of the sky one like a son of man, and he came even to the ancient of days, and they brought him near before him. There was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all the peoples, nations, and languages should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
主耶稣！但以理先知在夜间看到的异象，已经成了。祢受死，复活，升天，掳掠仇敌，拯救世人归回神的国度。主啊！我活着的时候，求祢教导我，顺服神的国度，权柄，过荣耀神的生活所需要的知识，晓得神在天上的旨意。
但7:9
我观看、见有宝座设立、上头坐着亘古常在者、他的衣服洁白如雪、头发如纯净的羊毛、宝座乃火焰、其轮乃烈火．从他面前有火像河发出、事奉他的有千千、在他面前侍立的有万万．他坐着要行审判、案卷都展开了。
I saw until thrones were placed, and one who was ancient of days sat: his clothing was white as snow, and the hair of his head like pure wool; his throne was fiery flames, its wheels burning fire. A fiery stream issued and came forth from before him: thousands of thousands ministered to him, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened.
主耶稣！当我看到这里，心里湧流着一股冲力，要加入在祢面前，事奉祢那千千人的队伍，我不要停留只是侍立的队伍里。求主悦纳我心所愿，成全我的心愿，可以在有生之日，事奉祢。
但7:1
巴比伦王伯沙撒元年、但以理在床上作梦、见了脑中的异象、就记录这梦、述说其中的大意．
In the first year of Belshazzar king of Babylon Daniel had a dream and visions of his head on his bed: then he wrote the dream and told the sum of the matters.
主耶稣！圣经有许多的记载，神如何借着梦向人启示，但以理先知看重梦兆，记录梦境。主啊！我需要学习看重梦兆，记录梦境，并且懂得向神求问，要明白神有何启示。
但6:24
王下令、人就把那些控告但以理的人、连他们的妻子儿女都带来、扔在狮子坑中．他们还没有到坑底、狮子就抓住他们、咬碎他们的骨头。
The king commanded, and they brought those men who had accused Daniel, and they cast them into the den of lions, them, their children, and their wives; and the lions mauled them, and broke all their bones in pieces, before they came to the bottom of the den.
主耶稣！我想起，经上记着说，挖陷坑的，自己必掉在其中，滚石头的，石头必反滚在他身上。设谋害但以理先知的，害人害自，也害了家人。主啊！想到这里，我求祢的怜悯，赦免那些设谋害我的人。
但6:22-23
我的神差遣使者、封住狮子的口、叫狮子不伤我、因我在神面前无辜、我在王面前也没有行过亏损的事。王就甚喜乐、吩咐人将但以理从坑里系上来．于是但以理从坑里被系上来．身上毫无伤损、因为信靠他的神。
My God has sent his angel, and has shut the lions' mouths, and they have not hurt me; because as before him innocence was found in me; and also before you, O king, have I done no hurt. Then was the king exceeding glad, and commanded that they should take Daniel up out of the den. So Daniel was taken up out of the den, and no kind of harm was found on him, because he had trusted in his God.
主耶稣！我看到但以理，他向神有无伪的信心，向自己有着无愧的良心，向国王有颗清洁的爱心。主啊！这是个全心信靠神的人，所活出来的生命，正是我所要追求的生命，一'生'无损。
但6:18-20
王回宫、终夜禁食、无人拿乐器到他面前．并且睡不着觉。次日黎明、王就起来、急忙往狮子坑那里去、临近坑边、哀声呼叫但以理、对但以理说、永生神的仆人但以理阿、你所常事奉的神能救你脱离狮子么。
Then the king went to his palace, and passed the night fasting; neither were instruments of music brought before him: and his sleep fled from him. Then the king arose very early in the morning, and went in haste to the den of lions. When he came near to the den to Daniel, he cried with a lamentable voice; the king spoke and said to Daniel, Daniel, servant of the living God, is your God, whom you serve continually, able to deliver you from the lions?
主耶稣！我看国王爱心的真实，终夜禁食，睡不着觉，清早起来，急忙前往。主啊！一国之君，珍惜爱蒋，爱心的行动，真心与关心的流露。求主祝福国家，会司，教会的领导，得着智慧，懂得珍惜身边敬畏神的仆人。
但6:14，16
王听见这话、就甚愁烦、一心要救但以理、筹画解救他、直到日落的时候。...王下令、人就把但以理带来、扔在狮子坑中．王对但以理说、你所常事奉的神、他必救你。
Then the king, when he heard these words, was very displeased, and set his heart on Daniel to deliver him; and he labored until the going down of the sun to rescue him. Then the king commanded, and they brought Daniel, and cast him into the den of lions. the king spoke and said to Daniel, Your God whom you serve continually, he will deliver you.
主耶稣！但以理的灵命成熟度之高，是我所羡慕的，面对不合理的法律和刑罚，不发怨言。他尽心尽力服事国家，忠心于王，王却因为国法要将他处决，却毫无畏惧。主啊！这是我要的生命，与神同行，活的精彩。
但6:10
但以理知道这禁令盖了玉玺、就到自己家里、（他楼上的窗户、开向耶路撒冷)一日三次、双膝跪在他 神面前、祷告感谢、与素常一样。
When Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went into his house (now his windows were open in his room toward Jerusalem) and he kneeled on his knees three times a day, and prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did before.
主耶稣！但以理可以选择30天不祈祷，但是他选择与素常一样，一天三次，面朝圣城，向神祈祷。主啊！我要像但以理，有敬畏神的生命，有祷告生活，无论在那里，无论在任何境遇，我仍然要祷告感谢与素常一样，亲近神，敬畏神。
但6:3-4
因这但以理有美好的灵性、所以显然超乎其余的总长和总督、王又想立他治理通国。那时总长和总督、寻找但以理误国的把柄、为要参他．只是找不着他的错误过失、因他忠心办事、毫无错误过失。
Then this Daniel was distinguished above the presidents and the satraps, because an excellent spirit was in him; and the king thought to set him over the whole realm. Then the presidents and the satraps sought to find occasion against Daniel as touching the kingdom; but they could find no occasion nor fault, because he was faithful, neither was there any error or fault found in him.
主耶稣！美好的灵性与忠心办事，是里外合一，一个人真的能够办到办事毫无错误，真是不可思意。主啊！但以理美好的灵性，是我所仰慕，所要追求的。求祢教导我，圣灵啊，求祢来相助。好叫我在凡事上向神向人忠心。
但5:17
但以理在王面前回答说、你的赠品可以归你自己．你的赏赐可以归给别人．我却要为王读这文字、把讲解告诉王。
Then Daniel answered before the king, Let your gifts be to yourself, and give your rewards to another; nevertheless I will read the writing to the king, and make known to him the interpretation.
主耶稣！我看见但以理心中的纯正，甘心乐意服事敌国的国王。不为名利，不为权势所诱惑。主啊！我想到，现今有多少人像但以理一样，以纯正的心服事人如同事奉神。求祢帮助我，成为像但以理一样心志的人。
但4:35
世上所有的居民、都算为虚无、在天上的万军、和世上的居民中、他都凭自己的意旨行事．无人能拦住他手、或问他说、你作甚么呢。
All the inhabitants of the earth are reputed as nothing; and he does according to his will in the army of heaven, and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand, or ask him, What are you doing?
主耶稣！愿父神的旨意行在地上，神愿万人得救，不愿一人沉沦。主啊！我们要为失丧的灵魂祷告，也
求主打开传福音的门，我们相信庄稼已经成熟，现在，是我们顺服圣灵的感动，用爱心去收割的季节。我们相信只要我们顺服圣灵，无人能拦阻神的旨意。
但4:27
王阿、求你悦纳我的谏言、以施行公义断绝罪过、以怜悯穷人除掉罪孽、或者你的平安可以延长。
Therefore, O king, let my counsel be acceptable to you, and break off your sins by righteousness, and your iniquities by showing mercy to the poor; if there may be a lengthening of your tranquility.
主耶稣！但以理解读王的异梦，敢于冒生命的危险，说出神的启示。主啊！求祢施恩加添力量，智慧，能力，信心，给站立在国家领导身边的官员，在有影响力的领袖身边的信徒，使他们敢于说出诚实，真实的话。
但4:19
于是称为伯提沙撒的但以理、惊讶片时、心意惊惶。王说、伯提沙撒阿、不要因梦和梦的讲解惊惶。伯提沙撒回答说、我主阿、愿这梦归与恨恶你的人、讲解归与你的敌人。
Then Daniel, whose name was Belteshazzar, was stricken mute for a while, and his thoughts troubled him. The king answered, Belteshazzar, don't let the dream, or the interpretation, trouble you. Belteshazzar answered, My lord, the dream be to those who hate you, and its interpretation to your adversaries.
主耶稣！但以理以敬畏神的心服事神，心灵敏锐。主啊！心灵里敏锐是我所欠缺的，许多时候对来自神的多方，多次的警告，没感觉，视若无睹，也不警惕，对人心里的苦楚，也漠不关心，没反应，求神赦免。求圣灵相助，恢复我对神话语的渴慕和敏锐度。
但4:18
这是我尼布甲尼撒王所作的梦、伯提沙撒阿、你要说明这梦的讲解、因为我国中的一切哲士、都不能将梦的讲解告诉我、惟独你能、因你里头有圣神的灵。
This dream I, king Nebuchadnezzar, have seen; and you, Belteshazzar, declare the interpretation, because all the wise men of my kingdom are not able to make known to me the interpretation; but you are able; for the spirit of the holy gods is in you.
主耶稣！只有神借着圣灵向我们显明了，因为圣灵参透万事，就是 神深奥的事也参透了。属血气的人不领会神圣灵的事，反倒以为愚拙。并且不能知道，因为这些事惟有属灵的人才能看透。主啊！圣灵住在我们里头，重生了我们，充满我们，我们要过敬畏神的生命，世人也能看到神的灵与我们同在。
但3:25-26
王说、看哪、我见有四个人、并没有捆绑、在火中游行、也没有受伤、那第四个的相貌、好象神子。于是尼布甲尼撒就近烈火窑门、说、至高神的仆人沙得拉、米煞、亚伯尼歌出来、上这里来吧．沙得拉、米煞、亚伯尼歌、就从火中出来了。
He answered, Look, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they are unharmed; and the aspect of the fourth is like a son of the gods. Then Nebuchadnezzar came near to the mouth of the burning fiery furnace: he spoke and said, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, you servants of the Most High God, come forth, and come here. Then Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego came forth out of the midst of the fire.
主耶稣！有神与沙得拉，米煞，亚伯尼歌同在，使他们胜过火焰，平安从火中走出来。主啊！他们三位如此敬畏神，不畏惧撒旦的权势，不与恶妥协，不向威吓低头，成了我的标杆。至死，我都会记得要效法他们的心志。
但3:16-18
沙得拉、米煞、亚伯尼歌、对王说、尼布甲尼撒阿、这件事我们不必回答你．王阿、我们所事奉的神、能将我们从烈火的窑中救出来．王阿、他也必救我们脱离你的手．即或不然、王阿、你当知道我们决不事奉你的神、也不敬拜你所立的金像。
Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego answered the king, Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. If it be , our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace; and he will deliver us out of your hand, O king. But if not, be it known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods, nor worship the golden image which you have set up.
主耶稣！我看到沙得拉，米煞，亚伯尼歌，他们对神坚定不移的信心，即使最后被烈火所焚烧，仍然不会放弃对神的信靠。主啊！那天来到，敌基督刚强迫，威吓基督徒，求主加添力量，叫我们对神的信靠坚定不移。
但3:4-6
那时传令的、大声呼叫说、各方、各国、各族的人哪、有令传与你们。你们一听见角、笛、琵琶、琴、瑟、笙、和各样乐器的声音、就当俯伏敬拜尼布甲尼撒王所立的金像。凡不俯伏敬拜的、必立时扔在烈火的窑中。
Then the herald cried aloud, To you it is commanded, peoples, nations, and languages, that whenever you hear the sound of the horn, flute, zither, lyre, harp, pipe, and all kinds of music, you fall down and worship the golden image that Nebuchadnezzar the king has set up; and whoever doesn't fall down and worship shall the same hour be cast into the midst of a burning fiery furnace.
主耶稣！我在思想，必有一天，全世界的人，将会面对，一个王下命令，向一个偶像下拜。主啊！当那日子来到，我会记得但以理书第三章18节的记载：即或不然，王阿，你当知道我们决不事奉你的神，也不敬拜你所立的金像。
26「人如果服侍我，就必须跟随我；我在哪里，服侍我的人也要在哪里；人如果服侍我，我父就会给他尊荣。」
26 “If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.” (ESV)
耶稣说：「人如果服侍我，就必须跟随我，我在哪里，服侍我的人也要在哪里……。」这是有条件的句式：如果要做成某件事，或得到某个结果，就必须要有某些行动。即是，若要服侍耶稣，就必须跟随耶稣、作祂门徒。
弟兄姐妹，你认为服侍与跟随有什么分别呢？
διακονέω / diakoneo（服侍）的意思是作为中介人，为托付责任的一方效力；同时又比喻在餐桌旁服侍的人，能帮助和满足用餐的人即时的需要。总而言之，是履行责任、帮助、给予援助，并且随时候命—绝不是为自己而服侍。
ἀκολουθέω / akoloutheo（跟随）就是在某人身后按同一方向行动，陪同、遵从、顺从，及与带领的人同行。
原来主耶稣在告诉我们「不要为了你自己而服侍我」：不要因为要打发时间而服侍，不要因为想得到好名声而服侍，不要因为自己想有表现而服侍。服侍的人只效力主耶稣，随时预备妥当来满足祂，并在耶稣背后，跟随祂朝着同一方向进发，遵从顺服祂的带领；同时，天天与主沟通交流，与耶稣建立美好的关系。
耶稣说：「我在哪里，服侍我的人也要在哪里；人如果服侍我，我父就会给他尊荣。」耶稣所要的是随时候命、完全顺服的服侍。还记得2016年6月的迷你仓大火吗？当我们还在电视机前「隔岸观火」，已经有一批又一批随时候命、完全顺服的消防员冒着生命危险扑入火场搏斗，他们顺服上司的命令，也效力托付他们责任的市民。不幸地，有消防员殉职，但他们留给我们的是服侍中最高的情操。
愿意我们身为服侍主的人，也显出耶稣所要的随时候命、完全顺服的最高情操。
诚心祷告
向父神至死忠心，爱我们至死不渝的主耶稣，祢喜悦我专心服侍祢，不因自己的好处和意愿，而是完全听命与祢，无论任何时间、岗位，只要是祢所差派的，我都愿意顺服跟随。求祢悦纳我的心愿。奉主名求。阿们。

但2:49
但以理求王、王就派沙得拉、米煞、亚伯尼歌、管理巴比伦省的事务、只是但以理常在朝中侍立。
Daniel requested of the king, and he appointed Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, over the affairs of the province of Babylon: but Daniel was in the gate of the king.
主耶稣！我看到但以理敬畏神，拥有宽阔，无私，重视朋友的胸襟，是领袖该有的典范。主啊！求祢兴起更多像但以理的人，待立在国家政府高位者的旁边，影响国家进入神的命定。
但2:46-47
当时尼布甲尼撒王、俯伏在地、向但以理下拜、并且吩咐人给他奉上供物和香品。王对但以理说、你既能显明这奥秘的事、你们的 神、诚然是万 神之 神、万王之主、又是显明奥秘事的。
Then the king Nebuchadnezzar fell on his face, and worshiped Daniel, and commanded that they should offer an offering and sweet odors to him. The king answered to Daniel, and said, Of a truth your God is the God of gods, and the Lord of kings, and a revealer of secrets, since you have been able to reveal this secret.
主耶稣！我看见但以理敬畏神，君王看见耶和华神的荣耀与但以理同在。主啊！我相信，我们在凡事上敬畏耶和华神，遵循神的法则，行事为人按神的律例生活，世人能够在我们身上看见耶和华神的荣耀。
但2:28-29
只有一位在天上的神、能显明奥秘的事他已将日后必有的事、指示尼布甲尼撒王．你的梦、和你在床上脑中的异象是这样。王阿、你在床上想到后来的事、那显明奥秘事的主、把将来必有的事指示你．
but there is a God in heaven who reveals secrets, and he has made known to the king Nebuchadnezzar what shall be in the latter days. Your dream, and the visions of your head on your bed, are these: as for you, O king, your thoughts came on your bed, what should happen hereafter; and he who reveals secrets has made known to you what shall happen.
主耶稣！尼布甲尼撒王日间心中有所思念，脑中有异象，睡眠中有梦，这一切神都晓得。主啊！有时候我也会为未来的事情思考，偶尔脑中也会有异象。求祢赐智慧，能够明白其中的意思。
但2:20-22
但以理说、神的名是应当称颂的、从亘古直到永远、因为智慧能力都属乎他．他改变时候、日期、废王、立王、将智慧赐与智慧人、将知识赐与聪明人．他显明深奥隐秘的事、知道暗中所有的、光明也与他同居。
Daniel answered, Blessed be the name of God forever and ever; for wisdom and might are his. He changes the times and the seasons; he removes kings, and sets up kings; he gives wisdom to the wise, and knowledge to those who have understanding;
he reveals the deep and secret things; he knows what is in the darkness, and the light dwells with him.
主耶稣！看到但以理的祈祷，让我开始省察我的信心。但以理的安稳，说信心的话，向神祈求，是由心而发。主啊！我信主耶稣是基督，我信天父对我的爱。我要说我有永生，我要说天父爱我永不变。我要向神敬拜，表达我对神的感恩。
但2:16-18
但以理遂进去求王宽限、就可以将梦的讲解告诉王。但以理回到他的居所、将这事告诉他的同伴哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亚撒利雅、要他们祈求天上的 神施怜悯、将这奥秘的事指明、免得但以理和他的同伴、与巴比伦其余的哲士、一同灭亡。
Daniel went in, and desired of the king that he would appoint him a time, and he would show the king the interpretation. Then Daniel went to his house, and made the thing known to Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah, his companions: that they would desire mercies of the God of heaven concerning this secret; that Daniel and his companions should not perish with the rest of the wise men of Babylon.
主耶稣！我晓得，过后，这奥秘的事，就在夜间异象中给但以理显明。但以理便称颂天上的神。我看到但以理心中安稳，说出信心的话，开成立守望祷告团队。主啊！我在面对危机的时候，也要像但以理一样做三件事：安稳，说信心的话，向神祷告。
但2:1
尼布甲尼撒在位第二年、他作了梦、心里烦乱、不能睡觉。
In the second year of the reign of Nebuchadnezzar, Nebuchadnezzar dreamed dreams; and his spirit was troubled, and his sleep went from him.
主耶稣！神借着梦兆向约瑟，雅各，所罗门王说话，甚至外邦人亚比米勒，神同样用梦兆向他说话。主啊！我相信，神今天也同样会借着梦兆向我说话，求主向我施恩，怜悯我的软弱，求主在梦兆中向我说话，尤其是我有亏欠神荣耀的地方。
但1:19
王与他们谈论、见少年人中、无一人能比但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亚撒利雅、所以留他们在王面前侍立。王考问他们一切事、就见他们的智慧聪明、比通国的术士、和用法术的、胜过十倍。
The king talked with them; and among them all was found none like Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: therefore stood they before the king. In every matter of wisdom and understanding, concerning which the king inquired of them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchanters who were in all his realm.
主耶稣！但以理因心中敬畏神，且晓得一切事的知识，经历4个王朝，仍居高位。主啊！我想起经上说，你看见办事殷勤的人么，他必站在君王面前，必不站在下贱人面前。但以理必定是办事殷勤的人。求主圣灵光照，我在何事上要加倍殷勤。
但1:18
尼布甲尼撒王预定带进少年人来的日期满了、太监长就把他们带到王面前。
At the end of the days which the king had appointed for bringing them in, the prince of the eunuchs brought them in before Nebuchadnezzar.
主耶稣！耶和华神做事都有定期，许多时候，我们会心急，结果，与神预备给我们的祝福，擦肩而过。主啊！我要学习耐心等待，不畏惧环境，扫罗王因畏惧而失去祝福。我相信神的时间，永远不会误时。
但1:17
这四个少年人，神在各样文字学问〔智慧〕上，赐给他们聪明知识。但以理又明白各样的异象和梦兆。
Now as for these four youths, God gave them knowledge and skill in all learning and wisdom: and Daniel had understanding in all visions and dreams.
主耶稣！天父赐给4个少年人各样的智慧，知识，和聪明，又赐给但以理能够明白各样的异象和梦兆。我记得经上说，各样美善的恩赐，和各样全备的赏赐，都是从上头来的。从众光之父那里降下来的，在他并没有改变，也没有转动的影儿。主啊！我以信心领受天父各样全备的赏赐，各样美善的恩赐。我大胆求祢赐给我能够明白各样异象和梦兆。
但1:11-13
但以理对太监长所派管理但以理、哈拿尼雅、米沙利、亚撒利雅的委办说、求你试试仆人们十天、给我们素菜吃、白水喝、然后看看我们的面貌、和用王膳那少年人的面貌．就照你所看的待仆人吧。
Then Daniel said to the steward whom the prince of the eunuchs had appointed over Daniel, Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah: Test your servants, I beg you, ten days; and let them give us vegetables to eat, and water to drink. Then let our faces be looked on before you, and the face of the youths who eat of the king's dainties; and as you see, deal with your servants.
主耶稣！但以理面对与他信念相违的要求，以智慧向上位者请求，不强求想要的结果，完全顺服神。主啊！我要效法但以理敬畏神教诲的信念系统，在饮食上除了有节制，还要认识神不喜悦的食物，懂得戒口。叫我的信心有根有基，可以经的起考验。
但1:8-9
但以理却立志、不以王的膳、和王所饮的酒、玷污自己、所以求太监长容他不玷污自己。神使但以理在太监长眼前蒙恩惠、受怜悯．
But Daniel purposed in his heart that he would not defile himself with the king's dainties, nor with the wine which he drank: therefore he requested of the prince of the eunuchs that he might not defile himself. Now God made Daniel to find kindness and compassion in the sight of the prince of the eunuchs.
主耶稣！但以理为我们立了榜样，知道要的是什么，就要立志遵循。敬畏神，有智慧，讨神讨人喜悦。主啊！我要在生计，生活，作息上明白神的法则，立志遵循，将生命的主权交托给神。
但1:3-4
王吩咐太监长亚施毗拿、从以色列人的宗室和贵冑中、带进几个人来、就是年少没有残疾、相貌俊美、通达各样学问、知识聪明俱备、足能侍立在王宫里的、要教他们迦勒底的文字言语。
The king spoke to Ashpenaz the master of his eunuchs, that he should bring in of the children of Israel, even of the seed royal and of the nobles; youths in whom was no blemish, but well-favored, and skillful in all wisdom, and endowed with knowledge, and understanding science, and such as had ability to stand in the king's palace; and that he should teach them the learning and the language of the Chaldeans.
主耶稣！太奇妙了，上周就有一位弟兄告诉我，多年前国家政府出钱让他学外语。主啊！求圣灵运行，感动知识聪明俱备敬畏神的年轻人。有响往异地传福音的异象，有学习外语的决心，动力，能力和智慧。求祢为他们打开学习外语的门。
结47:22-23
要拈阄分这地为业、归与自己和你们中间寄居的外人、就是在你们中间生养儿女的外人．你们要看他们如同以色列人中所生的一样．他们在以色列支派中要与你们同得地业。外人寄居在那支派中、你们就在那里分给他地业．这是主耶和华说的。
It shall happen, that you shall divide it by lot for an inheritance to you and to the aliens who live among you, who shall father children among you; and they shall be to you as the native-born among the children of Israel; they shall have inheritance with you among the tribes of Israel. It shall happen, that in what tribe the stranger lives, there you shall give him his inheritance, says the Lord Yahweh.
主耶稣！我看到寄居在以色列民中的外人，神一律看待。主啊！我们因信靠祢的名，与以色列民同为亚伯拉罕的后裔，同蒙应许，同为神国度的子民。我们的生活，作息，都要在附和神的国度，叫世人看见神的国度在人间。
结47:12
在河这边、与那边的岸上、必生长各类的树木．其果可作食物、叶子不枯干、果子不断绝．每月必结新果子、因为这水是从圣所流出来的．树上的果子、必作食物、叶子乃为治病。
By the river on its bank, on this side and on that side, shall grow every tree for food, whose leaf shall not wither, neither shall its fruit fail: it shall bring forth new fruit every month, because its waters issue out of the sanctuary; and its fruit shall be for food, and its leaf for healing.
主耶稣！我想起，在启示彔也有同样的记载，在城内街道当中一道生命水的河，明亮如水晶，从神和羔羊的宝座流出来。在河这边与那边有生命树，结十二样果子，每月都结果子。树上的叶子乃为医治万民。主啊！求祢打开我们属灵的眼睛，叫我们在地上，可以经历叶子医治万民。
结47:6-8
他对我说、人子阿、你看见了甚么．他就带我回到河边。我回到河边的时候、见在河这边、与那边的岸上、有极多的树木。他对我说、这水往东方流去、必下到亚拉巴、直到海．所发出来的水、必流入盐海、使水变甜。
He said to me, Son of man, have you seen ? Then he brought me, and caused me to return to the bank of the river. Now when I had returned, behold, on the bank of the river were very many trees on the one side and on the other.
Then he said to me, These waters issue forth toward the eastern region, and shall go down into the Arabah; and they shall go toward the sea; into the sea which were made to issue forth; and the waters shall be healed.
主耶稣！水往东方流去，流入盐海，使水变甜，这经文，带给我极大的安慰。主啊！祢的道，祢的灵，是活水，大有能力，有洁净，有医治。我们因信祢的话，活水就进入我们里面，使我们得丰盛的生命，得医治。感谢天父的爱。
结46:9-10
在各节期、国内居民朝见耶和华的时候、从北门进入敬拜的、必由南门而出．从南门进入的、必由北门而出．不可从所入的门而出、必要直往前行、由对门而出。民进入、王也要在民中进入．民出去、王也要一同出去。
But when the people of the land shall come before Yahweh in the appointed feasts, he who enters by the way of the north gate to worship shall go forth by the way of the south gate; and he who enters by the way of the south gate shall go forth by the way of the north gate: he shall not return by the way of the gate by which he came in, but shall go forth straight before him. The prince, when they go in, shall go in with of them; and when they go out, he shall go out.
主耶稣！我看到的是，来到祢面前，君王和百姓并没有区别。主啊！在教会礼仪，待遇上，有划分社会地位，身份排行，阶级之分，除主赦免。求主光照，恢复教会，在敬奉神的事上，无社会阶级之分。
结45:19-20
祭司要取些赎罪祭牲的血、抹在殿的门柱上、和坛磴台的四角上、并内院的门框上。本月初七日、也要为误犯罪的、和愚蒙犯罪的如此行．为殿赎罪。
The priest shall take of the blood of the sin offering, and put it on the door posts of the house, and on the four corners of the ledge of the altar, and on the posts of the gate of the inner court. So you shall do on the seventh of the month for everyone who errs, and for him who is simple: so you shall make atonement for the house.
主耶稣！我想到青少年时期的我，因愚蒙犯了有许多的罪，到了成年，因缺乏敬畏耶和华神的智慧，错误的决定，犯了罪，亏欠神的荣耀。主啊！感谢祢的宝血洗净我们的罪。感谢祢的宝血遮盖我们的家。感谢祢全备的救赎，拯救我们全家脱离恶者的辖制，祝福我们全家，有宝贵的信心，信靠主，与神的性情有份。
结45:1,4
你们拈阄分地为业、要献上一分给耶和华为圣供地、长二万五千肘、宽一万肘．这分以内、四围都为圣地。这是全地的一分圣地．要归与供圣所职事的祭司、就是亲近事奉耶和华的、作为他们房屋之地、与圣所之圣地。
Moreover, when you shall divide by lot the land for inheritance, you shall offer an offering to Yahweh, a holy portion of the land; the length shall be the length of twenty-five thousand , and the breadth shall be ten thousand: it shall be holy in all its border all around. It is a holy portion of the land; it shall be for the priests, the ministers of the sanctuary, who come near to minister to Yahweh; and it shall be a place for their houses, and a holy place for the sanctuary.
主耶稣！原来祭司的居所是与神的圣所同在一处。主啊！让更多祢的仆人的居所与圣殿同在一处。在未来叫负责建圣殿工程的领袖，他们把为神仆人居所的需求，放入在建筑的蓝图里。
结44:28
祭司必有产业．我是他们的产业．不可在以色列中给他们基业．我是他们的基业。
They shall have an inheritance: I am their inheritance; and you shall give them no possession in Israel; I am their possession.
主耶稣！我在思考旧约的祭司虽然没有自己名下的房产，田产，他们不必为生计挂虑，因为，在以色列民的社群有定律，划定住处归属于祭司。主啊！我看到有蒙选召，专心，诚心，忠心事奉祢的仆人，他们面对住处不定的困扰。求圣灵光照教会有能力的信徒，起来服事爱神爱人，忠心事奉神的仆人。
结44:15
以色列人走迷离开我的时候、祭司利未人撒督的子孙、仍看守我的圣所．他们必亲近我、事奉我、并且侍立在我面前、将脂油与血献给我．这是主耶和华说的。
But the priests the Levites, the sons of Zadok, who performed the duty of my sanctuary when the children of Israel went astray from me, they shall come near to me to minister to me; and they shall stand before me to offer to me the fat and the blood, says the Lord Yahweh
主耶稣！耶和华神的眼目遍察全地，帮助那心向他存诚实的人。撒督向神存诚实的心，看守神的殿，子子孙孙蒙天父的眷顾。主啊！求祢记念祢的仆人，我以真诚的心事奉祢，求祢怜悯我和我家，不记念我们的过犯，施恩于我和我的一家，可以侍立在祢面前事奉祢。
结44:7-8
你们把我的食物、就是脂油和血献上的时候、将身心未受割礼的外邦人、领进我的圣地、玷污了我的殿．又背了我的约、在你们一切可憎的事上、加上这一层。你们也没有看守我的圣物、却派别人在圣地替你们看守我所吩咐你们的。
In that you have brought in foreigners, uncircumcised in heart and uncircumcised in flesh, to be in my sanctuary, to profane it, even my house, when you offer my bread, the fat and the blood, and they have broken my covenant, to all your abominations. You have not performed the duty of my holy things; but you have set performers of my duty in my sanctuary for yourselves.
主耶稣！我看见以色列民玷污了神的殿，想到同样的事情在教会中。有教会聘请未信主的当崇拜的乐队，聘用祭拜偶像的员工清洁圣殿内的器物。主啊！求祢的灵光照教会的领导层，能够察觉错误，及时纠正。
结44:5
耶和华对我说、人子阿、我对你所说耶和华殿中的一切典章法则、你要放在心上、用眼看、用耳听、并要留心殿宇、和圣地一切出入之处。
Yahweh said to me, Son of man, mark well, and see with your eyes, and hear with your ears all that I tell you concerning all the ordinances of the house of Yahweh, and all its laws; and mark well the entrance of the house, with every exit of the sanctuary.
主耶稣！神告诉以西结要把所指示的都要放在心上，用眼看，用耳听，并要留心殿宇和圣地的一切出入之处。主啊！这里让我想到，我的身体是圣灵的殿，我的心所想要的，眼所看，耳所听的，嘴里所说的，无论吃什么，喝什么，凡事都要留意，要在的身子上荣耀神。
结43:11-12
他们若因自己所行的一切事惭愧、你就将殿的规模、样式、出入之处、和一切形状、典章、礼仪、法则指示他们、在他们眼前写上、使他们遵照殿的一切规模典章去作。殿的法则、乃是如此．殿在山顶上、四围的全界、要称为至圣．这就是殿的法则。
If they be ashamed of all that they have done, make known to them the form of the house, and its fashion, and its exits, and its entrances, and all its forms, and all its ordinances, and all its forms, and all its laws; and write it in their sight; that they may keep the whole form of it, and all its ordinances, and do them.
This is the law of the house: on the top of the mountain the whole limit around it shall be most holy. Behold, this is the law of the house.
主耶稣！我看到了耶和华神指示以西结建筑圣殿的架构，甚至圣殿所在的位置也是清楚指定。我又看到了在殿内还要有典章，礼仪，法则。主啊！求祢光照现今的教会，要有圣殿，也要有神的真理。
结43:1-2,4
以后、他带我到一座门、就是朝东的门．以色列神的荣光从东而来．他的声音如同多水的声音．地就因他的荣耀发光。耶和华的荣光、从朝东的门照入殿中。
Afterward he brought me to the gate, even the gate that looks toward the east. Behold, the glory of the God of Israel came from the way of the east: and his voice was like the sound of many waters; and the earth shined with his glory. The glory of Yahweh came into the house by the way of the gate whose prospect is toward the east.
主耶稣！我想起，耶路撒冷城墙的城门都是敞开的，唯独东门是关闭的。主啊！神的日子到了，东门打开的日子到了，众城门也必打开，迎接祢的再来，万王之王，万主之主。奉主名来的，是应当称颂的。
结42:13
他对我说、顺着空地的南屋北屋、都是圣屋．亲近耶和华的祭司、当在那里吃至圣的物．也当在那里放至圣的物、就是素祭、赎罪祭、和赎愆祭．因此处为圣。
Then he said to me, The north rooms and the south rooms, which are before the separate place, they are the holy rooms, where the priests who are near to Yahweh shall eat the most holy things: there shall they lay the most holy things, and the meal offering, and the sin offering, and the trespass offering; for the place is holy.
主耶稣！当我看到这里所提到的物件，都有注明"圣"这个字，有圣屋，圣衣，圣物，圣处，等等。主啊！求祢赦免我们对待神圣所里的物件过于草率，对教会的产业也缺乏了维护的意识。对教堂里服事的礼服，缺乏了敬虔的态度。对於圣经也缺乏敬畏之心。求天父怜悯！
结41:22
坛是木头作的、高三肘、长二肘．坛角、和坛面、并四旁、都是木头作的．他对我说、这是耶和华面前的桌子。
The altar was of wood, three cubits high, and its length two cubits; and its corners, and its length, and its walls, were of wood: and he said to me, This is the table that is before Yahweh.
主耶稣！感谢神的启示临到以西结，让他仔细记载神殿内的一切，尤其是这里提到的坛，竟然是耶和华神面前的桌子。这里让我想到我属天和属地的双重身份，我有地上的职业，也有天上的职务，我是神择选的祭司。主啊！我有一个新角度看我的工作桌的工作，如同是在献祭给神，我的工作要蒙神悦纳，要荣耀神的名。
结40:4
那人对我说、人子阿、凡我所指示你的、你都要用眼看、用耳听、并要放在心上．我带你到这里来、特为要指示你．凡你所见的、你都要告诉以色列家。
The man said to me, Son of man, see with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your heart on all that I shall show you; for, to the intent that I may show them to you, you are brought here: declare all that you see to the house of Israel.
主耶稣！这一章节的记载，让我看见以西结做事的细腻，谨慎，认真。神选召以西结，是有倚据的。主啊！我要用眼看，用耳听，把神要我看到和听到放在心上。我且要按照神的指示，把所看所听的与神指定的人分享。求主差遣我，成为祢的使者，只传亲身的所见所闻。
结39:28，29
因我使他们被掳到外邦人中、后又聚集他们归回本地、他们就知道我是耶和华他们的神．我必不再留他们一人在外邦．我也不再掩面不顾他们、因我已将我的灵浇灌以色列家．这是主耶和华说的。
They shall know that I am Yahweh their God, in that I caused them to go into captivity among the nations, and have gathered them to their own land; and I will leave none of them any more there; neither will I hide my face any more from them; for I have poured out my Spirit on the house of Israel, says the Lord Yahweh.
主耶稣！我看见以色列民被迁移到世界各地，却不失去他们身份。虽然，以色列国仍旧面对四围仇敌的威吓 ，移居的犹太人还在归回的路上。主啊！今早的经文，再次叫我明白，是圣灵在他们的心中，催促，尤其是神的日子迫近，犹太人的归回将会加速。感谢圣灵的光照。万军之耶和华的热心必成就这事。
结38:22-23
我必用瘟疫和流血的事刑罚他．我也必将暴雨、大雹、与火、并硫磺降与他和他的军队、并他所率领的众民。我必显为大、显为圣、在多国人的眼前显现．他们就知道我是耶和华。
With pestilence and with blood will I enter into judgment with him; and I will rain on him, and on his hordes, and on the many peoples who are with him, an overflowing shower, and great hailstones, fire, and sulfur. I will magnify myself, and sanctify myself, and I will make myself known in the eyes of many nations; and they shall know that I am Yahweh.
主耶稣！我看到一幕末日的光景，大军进攻以色列，战争的当儿，有瘟疫发生，同时天灾暴雨，大雹，与火，并硫磺，降在联盟的军队，有1/4的人被杀。主啊！我要竭力保守我的心，遵守主忍耐的道，当普天下人受试炼的时候，求主保守我免去末日的试炼。
结37:11-12
主对我说、人子阿、这些骸骨就是以色列全家．他们说、我们的骨头枯干了、我们的指望失去了、我们灭绝净尽了。所以你要发预言、对他们说、主耶和华如此说、我的民哪、我必开你们的坟墓、使你们从坟墓中出来、领你们进入以色列地。
Then he said to me, Son of man, these bones are the whole house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried up, and our hope is lost; we are clean cut off. Therefore prophesy, and tell them, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Behold, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your graves, my people; and I will bring you into the land of Israel.
主耶稣！今天的经文，使我想到祢吩咐拉撒路从坟墓中出来。主啊！祢的话就是灵，就是生命，有权柄胜过自然界的律。求祢赐亮光给那些在迷茫和失去指望的人，叫他们看见在疫情中的盼望，叫他们有信心和力量从困境中走出来。
结37:9,10
主对我说、人子阿、你要发预言、向风发预言、说、主耶和华如此说、气息阿、要从四方而来、吹在这些被杀的人身上、使他们活了。于是我遵命说预言、气息就进入骸骨、骸骨便活了、并且站起来、成为极大的军队。
Then he said to me, Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and tell the wind, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: Come from the four winds, breath, and breathe on these slain, that they may live. So I prophesied as he commanded me, and the breath came into them, and they lived, and stood up on their feet, an exceedingly great army.
主耶稣！当以西结奉命向空中宣告神所吩咐的，灵就运行。主啊！我们凭着信心，奉主耶稣基督的名祝福，信心软弱的基督徒，你们要刚强壮胆，举起发酸的手，你们的心不再沉睡，你们的灵要苏醒过来，你们心被喜乐的灵浇灌，你们要拿起圣灵的宝剑，与恶魔争战，与主同得胜。我们要起来，我们是主的军队。
结37:6,7
我必给你们加上筋、使你们长肉、又将皮遮蔽你们、使气息进入你们里面、你们就要活了．你们便知道我是耶和华。于是我遵命说预言．正说预言的时候、不料、有响声、有地震．骨与骨互相联络。
I will lay sinews on you, and will bring up flesh on you, and cover you with skin, and put breath in you, and you shall live; and you shall know that I am Yahweh. So I prophesied as I was commanded: and as I prophesied, there was a noise, and behold, an earthquake; and the bones came together, bone to its bone.
主耶稣！以西结遵命说预言，是按照神的话说，我看到的是，以西结是在说叫人得生命气息的话。今天有自命为先知的，他们好像是在为神说话，目的是想叫更多人来相信他们的话。他们说的话，却是叫人感到害怕，担心未来。主啊！我要谨慎明辨，熟悉听圣经上神的话，也要遵命说神的话。
结37:4，5
他又对我说、你向这些骸骨发预言、说、枯干的骸骨阿、要听耶和华的话。耶和华对这些骸骨如此说、我必使气息进入你们里面、你们就要活了。
Again he said to me, Prophesy over these bones, and tell them, you dry bones, hear the word of Yahweh. Thus says the Lord Yahweh to these bones: Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and you shall live.
主耶稣！我看到一幅奇妙的图片，耶和华神吩咐以西结向骸骨说话，正当以西结向骸骨开口说话的时候，我看到的是神同时向骸骨说话。主啊！我看见了，我们奉主耶稣基督的名祷告，向父祈求的时候，主耶稣基督同时也在父面前为我们代求。我们奉主耶稣基督的名，为人祝福祷告，主耶稣基督同时也在父面前为我们祝福。感谢祢，主耶稣，原来我们按照神的吩咐说话，神也在说话。
结37:1，3
耶和华的灵、降在我身上、耶和华藉他的灵带我出去、将我放在平原中．这平原遍满骸骨。他对我说、人子阿、这些骸骨能复活么．我说、主耶和华阿、你是知道的。
The hand of Yahweh was on me, and he brought me out in the Spirit of Yahweh, and set me down in the midst of the valley; and it was full of bones. He said to me, Son of man, can these bones live? I answered, Lord Yahweh, you know.
主耶稣！我们习惯性的喜悦停留在安逸的生活，怕到陌生的地方，不愿意到困苦人当中服事，不肯走出多年熟悉的领域。主啊！求圣灵带我出去，走进社区，看到社会的需要。求主光照我心黑暗之处，使我安稳走出困境。
结36:29，31
我必救你们脱离一切的污秽、也必命五谷丰登、不使你们遭遇饥荒。那时、你们必追想你们的恶行、和你们不善的作为、就因你们的罪孽和可憎的事厌恶自己。
I will save you from all your uncleanness: and I will call for the grain, and will multiply it, and lay no famine on you. Then you shall remember your evil ways, and your doings that were not good; and you shall loathe yourselves in your own sight for your iniquities and for your abominations.
主耶稣！我再次被提醒，蒙恩福在安逸中要记得感恩，同时也要记得憎恶过去的恶行。主啊！我明白了，我们若如此行，就会有同理心，晓得我是个蒙恩的罪人，也学习恨神所恨的恶，爱神所爱的善。
结36:25-27
我必用清水洒在你们身上、你们就洁净了．我要洁净你们、使你们脱离一切的污秽、弃掉一切的偶像。我也要赐给你们一个新心、将新灵放在你们里面．又从你们的肉体中除掉石心、赐给你们肉心。你们必住在我所赐给你们列祖之地、你们要作我的子民、我要作你们的神。
I will sprinkle clean water on you, and you shall be clean: from all your filthiness, and from all your idols, will I cleanse you. I will also give you a new heart, and I will put a new spirit within you; and I will take away the stony heart out of your flesh, and I will give you a heart of flesh. You shall dwell in the land that I gave to your fathers; and you shall be my people, and I will be your God.
主耶稣！我们在祢里面，成了新造的人，神赐给我们一个新心，又将新灵放在我们里面。主啊！我们所要作的事，是不断地在价值观和思维上改变，常思想天上的事，不以地上短暂的事为念，向祢学习，如何以父的事为念。
结36:22
所以你要对以色列家说、主耶和华如此说、以色列家阿、我行这事不是为你们、乃是为我的圣名、就是在你们到的列国中所亵渎的。我要使我的大名显为圣．这名在列国中已被亵渎、就是你们在他们中间所亵渎的。我在他们眼前、在你们身上显为圣的时候、他们就知道我是耶和华．这是主耶和华说的。
Therefore tell the house of Israel, Thus says the Lord Yahweh: I don't do for your sake, house of Israel, but for my holy name, which you have profaned among the nations, where you went. I will sanctify my great name, which has been profaned among the nations, which you have profaned in their midst; and the nations shall know that I am Yahweh, says the Lord Yahweh, when I shall be sanctified in you before their eyes.
主耶稣！我终于明白了，神为自己的名做事，名声在神眼中有何等崇高的地位。主啊！求祢赐给我属天的智慧和洞察力，我在什么时候，什么事上，轻视了神的名，我在人面前的名声，没有与荣耀神的名相称时，求圣灵及时管教我。
结36:1,8,9
人子阿、你要对以色列山发预言、说、以色列山哪、要听耶和华的话。以色列山哪、你必发枝条、为我的民以色列结果子、因为他们快要来到。看哪、我是帮助你的、也必向你转意、使你得以耕种。
You, son of man, prophesy to the mountains of Israel, and say, You mountains of Israel, hear the word of Yahweh. But you, mountains of Israel, you shall shoot forth your branches, and yield your fruit to my people Israel; for they are at hand to come. For, behold, I am for you, and I will turn into you, and you shall be tilled and sown.
主耶稣！以西结先知完全顺服神的吩咐，按照神的指示说话。有时候我们会误解神仆人的话，因为，好像前后不一致。我们明白，神降祸的话是因人的恶行，惩罚是要叫人悔改。尼尼微城全国悔改，神收回降祸的指令，并不是约拿先知听错神的话。主啊！今日，我们听到祢的仆人，也在警告我们，说，当分别为圣，主的日子近了。
