30/10 是回来的时刻

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。

28/10/2020 耶和华神的慈爱永远长存

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。。

27/10/2020 神的旨意高过人的意念

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。

26/10/2020 单纯顺服的心

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。

25/10/2020 胸有成竹

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。

23/10/2020 智慧人必发光

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。

22/10/2020 名录在册上

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。

21/10/2020 到了定期

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。

20/10/2020 总要坚强

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。

19/10/2020 敬畏神的人

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。

18/10/2020 灵界争战的真实

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。

17/10/2020 看见听见不逃跑

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。

16/10/2020 祷告的时候

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!

都必成全

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!

15/10/2020 三求

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。

14/10/2020 因神的大怜悯

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。

13/10/2020 求耶和华神的恩典

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。

12/10/2020 美国世贸大厦911事件

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。

11/10/2020 我们犯罪作孽

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。

10/10/2020 定意向主神祈祷恳求

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。

9/10/2020 关乎后来许多日子的异象

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。

Wednesday, October 7, 2020

8/10/2020 好美的画面

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。

7/10/2020 形状像人的天使

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。

6/10/2020 圣所洁净之日

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。

5/10/2020 大结局

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。

4/10/2020 晓得神在天上的旨意

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。

3/10/2020 事奉他的有千千

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。

2/10/2020 看重异梦

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。
