31/12/2021 犹太人的王

太27:11-14

耶稣站在巡抚面前、巡抚问他说、你是犹太人的王么。耶稣说、你说的是。他被祭司长和长老控告的时候、甚么都不回答。彼拉多就对他说、他们作见证、告你这么多的事、你没有听见么。耶稣仍不回答、连一句话也不说、以致巡抚甚觉希奇。

Now Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, "Are you the King of the Jews?" Jesus said to him, "So you say." When he was accused by the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing. Then Pilate said to him, "Don't you hear how many things they testify against you?"

He gave him no answer, not even one word, so that the governor marveled greatly.

主耶稣！祢是万王之王, 万主之主 。主啊！祢是以犹太人的王的罪名, 被钉死在十字架上的。我要尊崇, 称颂祢的名, 我要向祢服伏, 敬拜, 祢是我的王。

30/12/2021 关于身份

太26:62-63

大祭司就站起来、对耶稣说、你甚么都不回答么．这些人作见证告你的是甚么呢。耶稣却不言语。大祭司对他说、我指着永生　神、叫你起誓告诉我们、你是　神的儿子基督不是。

The high priest stood up, and said to him, "Have you no answer? What is this that these testify against you?" But Jesus held his peace. The high priest answered him, "I adjure you by the living God, that you tell us whether you are the Christ, the Son of God."

主耶稣！我看到的是, 一切的诬告, 祢不回应, 当提到祢的身份时, 祢才回应。主啊！人对我的诬告, 我不再像过去那样在意, 我要更加重视我的身份, 我是神的孩子。

29/12/2021 事情发生是为应验

太26:53-54

你想我不能求我父、现在为我差遣十二营多天使来么。若是这样、经上所说、事情必须如此的话、怎么应验呢。

Or do you think that I couldn't ask my Father, and he would even now send me more than twelve legions of angels? How then would the Scriptures be fulfilled that it must be so?"

 主耶稣！我明白了, 有些事情发生是为了应验经上所记, 我们不是用祷告去想要改变, 而是支取力量去面对。主啊！当敌基督的文化, 越来越猖獗, 求圣灵在我们的心灵深处, 兴起一道标准, 帮助我们去面对。

27/12/2021 肉体软弱

太26:40-41

来到门徒那里、见他们睡着了、就对彼得说、怎么样、你们不能同我儆醒片时么。总要儆醒祷告、免得入了迷惑．你们心灵固然愿意、肉体却软弱了。

He came to the disciples, and found them sleeping, and said to Peter, "What, couldn't you watch with me for one hour?Watch and pray, that you don't enter into temptation. The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."

主耶稣！我亲眼目睹不祷告的基督徒, 他们是多么容易被异教之风所摇动。也很容易相信假新闻, 谣言, 和传播假信息。主啊！我承认在祷告上有些时候很形式化, 很宗教化, 求圣灵赦免。我要在祷告的事上忠诚。

26/12/2021 照你的意思

太26:39

他就稍往前走、俯伏在地、祷告说、我父阿、倘若可行、求你叫这杯离开我．然而不要照我的意思、只要照你的意思。

He went forward a little, fell on his face, and prayed, saying, "My Father, if it is possible, let this cup pass away from me; nevertheless, not what I desire, but what you desire."

主耶稣！想到祢面对的挑战,  想到接下来, 祢将承担世人的罪孽, 而受到的刑罚。我的内心就起伏波动。主啊！祢如何回应神的旨意, 是我所要效仿的, 我会像祢的祷告对齐, 倘若可行, 求父叫这困难离开我, 然而不要照我的意思, 只要照父神的意思。

25/12/2021 一同儆醒

太26:36-38

耶稣同门徒来到一个地方、名叫客西马尼、就对他们说、你们坐在这里、等我到那边去祷告。于是带着彼得、和西庇太的两个儿子同去、就忧愁起来、极其难过．便对他们说、我心里甚是忧伤、几乎要死．你们在这里等候、和我一同儆醒。

Then Jesus came with them to a place called Gethsemane, and said to his disciples, "Sit here, while I go there and pray." He took with him Peter and the two sons of Zebedee, and began to be sorrowful and severely troubled. Then he said to them, "My soul is exceedingly sorrowful, even to death. Stay here, and watch with me.”

主耶稣！这时代越来越凶险, 越来越多的陷阱, 谎言, 假信息, 假新闻, 假教师。主啊！我仿佛听到祢正在向我说话, 要与祢一同儆醒, 祷告, 免受迷惑。

24/12/2021 不认识自己

太26:31 ,33,34

那时、耶稣对他们说、今夜你们为我的缘故、都要跌倒．因为经上记着说、『我要击打牧人、羊就分散了。』..彼得说、众人虽然为你的缘故跌倒、我却永不跌倒。耶稣说、我实在告诉你、今夜鸡叫以先、你要三次不认我。

Then Jesus said to them, "All of you will be made to stumble because of me tonight, for it is written, 'I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock will be scattered.' .. But Peter answered him, "Even if all will be made to stumble because of you, I will never be made to stumble." Jesus said to him, "Most certainly I tell you that tonight, before the rooster crows, you will deny me three times."

主耶稣！我看到彼得不认识自己的软弱。主啊！我何等需要祢的怜悯, 因为, 我回想过去, 其实我在许多场合上有否认祢, 求主赦免我的罪。

23/12/2021 到有需要的人家里

太26:3, 6

那时、祭司长和民间的长老、聚集在大祭司称为该亚法的院里。..耶稣在伯大尼长大痲疯的西门家里。

Then the chief priests, the scribes, and the elders of the people were gathered together in the court of the high priest, who was called Caiaphas...Now when Jesus was in Bethany, in the house of Simon the leper.

主耶稣！今早的读经, 这二节经文让我想到, 今天, 仍然有自封更纯正圣经教义的人士, 他们不去传福音, 却用尽心思, 挑其他教会的小毛病。主啊！至于我, 我要跟随祢, 到有需要的人家里。

22/12/2021 作在主身上

太25:40

王要回答说、我实在告诉你们、这些事你们既作在我这弟兄中一个最小的身上、就是作在我身上了。

"The King will answer them, 'Most certainly I tell you, inasmuch as you did it to one of the least of these my brothers, you did it to me.'

主耶稣！祢来不是要受人的服事, 乃是要服事人, 且不求回报。主啊！我知道了, 我以服事, 是作在祢身上, 是荣耀的差事。求圣灵来纠正我们错误的思维, 有时候服事人会期待人的回报。

21/12/2021 绵羊在右边

太25:31-34

当人子在他荣耀里、同着众天使降临的时候、要坐在他荣耀的宝座上．万民都要聚集在他面前．他要把他们分别出来、好象牧羊的分别绵羊山羊一般．把绵羊安置在右边、山羊在左边。于是王要向那右边的说、你们这蒙我父赐福的、可来承受那创世以来为你们所预备的国。

"But when the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then he will sit on the throne of his glory.

Before him all the nations will be gathered, and he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left. Then the King will tell those on his right hand, 'Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.

主耶稣！我感到很有意思, 常听到在政治上有分为左派和右派。主啊！我要省察身边的朋友, 当中有多少位是遵守神法则的, 他们是绵羊在祢的右边。若他们当中多数是属左派的, 我求圣灵来引导我, 更加要儆醒, 去影响他们认识神, 却不被他们所影响, 。

20/12/2021在不多的事上有忠心

太25:20-21

那领五千银子的、又带着那另外的五千来、说、主阿、你交给我五千银子、请看、我又赚了五千。主人说、好、你这又良善又忠心的仆人．你在不多的事上有忠心、我要把许多事派你管理．可以进来享受你主人的快乐。

He who received the five talents came and brought another five talents, saying, 'Lord, you delivered to me five talents. Behold, I have gained another five talents besides them.' "His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant. You have been faithful over a few things, I will set you over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'

主耶稣！你在不多的事上有忠心, 这句话给我很大的安慰。我感到天父的怜悯, 因为, 我知道, 我不是在凡事上都有忠心。主啊！我要更殷勤, 更竭力, 在更多的事上向神, 家人, 教会, 国家, 公司忠心。

18/12/2021 预备油在器皿里

太25:1-4

那时, 天国好比十个童女, 拿着灯, 出去迎接新郎。其中有五个是愚拙的, 五个是聪明的。愚拙的拿着灯, 却不预备油, 聪明的拿着灯, 又预备油在器皿里。

"Then the Kingdom of Heaven will be like ten virgins, who took their lamps, and went out to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. Those who were foolish, when they took their lamps, took no oil with them, but the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.

主耶稣！我明白了, 聪明与否, 只要查看有没有预备油在器皿里。主啊！我需要天天亲近圣灵, 天天在神的话语中受教, 我知道, 就在哪里, 我可以从圣灵那里领取到足够的油。

17/12/2021 忠心有见识的仆人

太24:45-46

谁是忠心有见识的仆人、为主人所派、管理家里的人、按时分粮给他们呢。主人来到、看见他这样行、那仆人就有福了。

"Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his lord has set over his household, to give them their food in due season?

Blessed is that servant whom his lord finds doing so when he comes.

主耶稣！忠心有见识的仆人是神所喜悦的, 主啊！我感谢祢的选召, 我可以成为神的仆人, 受委托管理家里, 且要按时分粮。我要在家中成为作神喜悦仆人, 治理好我的家, 讨神喜悦。

16/12/2021 要儆醒也要预备

太24:25-26,42,44

看哪、我预先告诉你们了。若有人对你们说、看哪、基督在旷野里．你们不要出去．或说、看哪、基督在内屋中．你们不要信。但那日子、那时辰、没有人知道、连天上的使者也不知道、子也不知道、惟独父知道。所以你们要儆醒、因为不知道你们的主是那一天来到。所以你们也要预备．因为你们想不到的时候、人子就来了。

"Behold, I have told you beforehand. If therefore they tell you, 'Behold, he is in the wilderness,' don't go out; 'Behold, he is in the inner rooms,' don't believe it. But no one knows of that day and hour, not even the angels of heaven, but my Father only. Watch therefore, for you don't know in what hour your Lord comes.

Therefore also be ready, for in an hour that you don't expect, the Son of Man will come.

主耶稣！我会儆醒不听信对祢再来的日子的预言, 我会预备好, 以生命的见证, 随时见祢面。主啊！我会天天在圣灵的引导下, 专心学习事奉神, 不让假先知使我分心。

15/12/2021 连选民也就迷惑了

太24:23-24

那时、若有人对你们说、基督在这里．或说、基督在那里．你们不要信。因为假基督、假先知、将要起来、显大神迹、大奇事．倘若能行、连选民也就迷惑了。

"Then if any man tells you, 'Behold, here is the Christ,' or, 'There,' don't believe it. For there will arise false christs, and false prophets, and they will show great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the chosen ones.

主耶稣！连选民也就迷惑了, 这句话带给我警惕。主啊！我的眼目若是单想看神迹, 心里所想要的也是神迹, 满口说的围绕着的都是神迹, 求圣灵指责我的偏离, 我要专心追求的是活出像主耶稣基督的身量, 起初神造人的性情。

14/12/2021 末期的焦点还是在福音

太24:13-14, 21

惟有忍耐到底的、必然得救。这天国的福音、要传遍天下、对万民作见证、然后末期才来到。... 因为那时、必有大灾难、从世界的起头、直到如今、没有这样的灾难、后来也必没有。

But he who endures to the end, the same will be saved. This Good News of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world for a testimony to all the nations, and then the end will come. ..for then there will be great oppression, such as has not been from the beginning of the world until now, no, nor ever will be.

主耶稣！我在思想, 世上曾经有过的大灾难, 那些人是如何忍耐到底。我真的不知道, 末期什么时候来到？我会不会遇到前所未有的大灾难？但是, 我知道福音传遍天下已经所要完成。主啊！我要天天寻求祢的面, 好叫我在信心上有坚韧的耐力, 传天国的福音。

13/12/2021 不法的事增多

太24:10-12

那时、必有许多人跌倒、也要彼此陷害、彼此恨恶。且有好些假先知起来、迷惑多人。只因不法的事增多、许多人的爱心、才渐渐冷淡了。

Then many will stumble, and will deliver up one another, and will hate one another. Many false prophets will arise, and will lead many astray. Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.

主耶稣！不法的事, 不会因人受到的教育普及化而减少, 反而变本加厉。我看到的除了不法的事增多, 更叫我害怕的是, 对人对神的爱心, 渐渐的冷淡。主啊！我向祢祈求, 叫我对祢话语的爱, 向神的敬拜, 祷告的心不减。

12/12/2021 这些事是必须有的

太24:4-6

耶稣回答说、你们要谨慎、免得有人迷惑你们。因为将来有好些人冒我的名来、说、我是基督、并且要迷惑许多人。你们也要听见打仗和打仗的风声、总不要惊慌．因为这些事是必须有的．只是末期还没有到。

Jesus answered them, "Be careful that no one leads you astray. For many will come in my name, saying, 'I am the Christ,' and will lead many astray. You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren't troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.

主耶稣！祢说, 假基督, 战争, 灾祸, 这些事是必须有的。主啊！我知道了, 我要常常保持儆醒, 不要被迷惑, 也不害怕, 惊慌。求圣灵充满我, 心里大有从主而来的平安。

11/12/2021 主啊！我愿意

太23:37

耶路撒冷阿、耶路撒冷阿、你常杀害先知、又用石头打死那奉差遣到你这里来的人．我多次愿意聚集你的儿女、好象母鸡把小鸡聚集在翅膀底下、只是你们不愿意。

"Jerusalem, Jerusalem, who kills the prophets, and stones those who are sent to her! How often I would have gathered your children together, even as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and you would not!

主耶稣！从旧约到祢道成肉身, 神不断地向以色列民召唤, 用劝, 用警告, 领他们归正, 归回。他们却硬着心。直到今日, 天父仍然在呼唤, 主啊！我听见了, 祢正在召集我们, 回到神的怀抱。我愿意, 我要回到神的家。

10/12/2021 更重的事就是公义, 怜悯, 信实

太23:23,28

你们这假冒为善的文士和法利赛人有祸了．因为你们将薄荷、茴香、芹菜、献上十分之一．那律法上更重的事、就是公义、怜悯、信实、反倒不行了．这更重的是你们当行的、那也是不可不行的。..你们也是如此、在人前、外面显出公义来、里面却装满了假善和不法的事。

"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you tithe mint, dill, and cumin, and have left undone the weightier matters of the law: justice, mercy, and faith. But you ought to have done these, and not to have left the other undone... Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inwardly you are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.

主耶稣！表里不一, 双面人, 双重标准, 这些都是祢所憎恶的。主啊！当我看到这样的人时, 求圣灵光照我的内心, 让我可以更认识自己, 免得犯上神所憎恶的人的行为。

9/12/2021 提防假冒

太23:15

你们这假冒为善的文士和法利赛人有祸了．因为你们走遍洋海陆地、勾引一个人入教．既入了教、却使他作地狱之子、比你们还加倍。

Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel around by sea and land to make one proselyte; and when he becomes one, you make him twice as much of a son of Gehenna as yourselves.

主耶稣！今天, 同样的事情仍然在发生, 许多从外国挂着宣教士的人, 引用圣经, 却传另一个福音, 专门迷惑信徒。主啊！求圣灵光照教会的领袖, 有辨别异端邪说的能力, 和教导圣徒得智慧的能力。

8/12/2021 绊倒人的有祸了

太23:11-13

你们中间谁为大、谁就要作你们的用人。凡自高的必降为卑、自卑的必升为高。你们这假冒为善的文士和法利赛人有祸了。因为你们正当人前、把天国的门关了．自己不进去、正要进去的人、你们也不容他们进去。

But he who is greatest among you will be your servant. Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted. "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you devour widows' houses, and as a pretense you make long prayers. Therefore you will receive greater condemnation.

主耶稣！的确, 有称为基督徒的人, 自己没有遵循真理, 还引用圣经来教训人。主啊！我祈求圣灵, 任何时候, 我有自满, 自义, 觉得自己比较虔诚, 有引用圣经教导, 自己却没有遵循, 求圣灵责备我。

7/12/2021 教义与言行要一致

太23:1-3

那时、耶稣对众人和门徒讲论、说、文士和法利赛人、坐在摩西的位上．凡他们所吩咐你们的、你们都要谨守、遵行．但不要效法他们的行为．因为他们能说不能行。

Then Jesus spoke to the multitudes and to his disciples,

saying, "The scribes and the Pharisees sat on Moses' seat. All things therefore whatever they tell you to observe, observe and do, but don't do their works; for they say, and don't do.

主耶稣！我观看到现在的宗教司, 与当日的文士和法利赛人, 没有两样, 只会教训, 强制要人遵循, 自己却没有活出所教的。主啊！许多时候, 我也像他们一样。求祢赦免我有在教义与言行不一致的过犯 。

6/12/2021 优先次序很重要

太22:36-39

夫子、律法上的诫命、那一条是最大的呢。耶稣对他说、你要尽心、尽性、尽意、爱主你的神。这是诫命中的第一、且是最大的。其次也相仿、就是要爱人如己。

"Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the law?" Jesus said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the first and great commandment. A second likewise is this, 'You shall love your neighbor as yourself.

主耶稣！我在思想, 爱祢的人, 会有那些特征。主啊！我看到大卫王爱神的法则, 爱神的诫命, 喜爱向神献祭, 爱向神唱新歌, 我要效法大卫王爱神的心。

5/12/2021 复活的时候

太22:30

当复活的时候、人也不娶也不嫁、乃像天上的使者一样。

For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like God's angels in heaven.

主耶稣！我明白了, 复活的时候, 我们不再有属血肉之躯。主啊！我脱离了血肉之躯, 不单是像天上的使者一样,  感谢祢的祝福, 我们还比天使更贵重。

4/12/2021 错了因为不明白圣经

太22:29-31

耶稣回答说、你们错了．因为不明白圣经、也不晓得神的大能。当复活的时候、人也不娶也不嫁、乃像天上的使者一样。论到死人复活、神在经上向你们所说的、你们没有念过么。

But Jesus answered them, "You are mistaken, not knowing the Scriptures, nor the power of God. For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are like God's angels in heaven. But concerning the resurrection of the dead, haven't you read that which was spoken to you by God, saying,

主耶稣！谢谢祢的话说, 错了因为不明白圣经。主啊！我们常常学习, 却不明白真道, 只选择自己喜欢的经文, 只听顺心的道, 求主圣灵来光照, 责备, 叫我不再硬着心, 在更多的事上有谦卑, 顺服神的管教。

3/12/2021 神的物当归给神

太22:20-21

耶稣说、这像和这号是谁的。他们说、是该撒的。耶稣说、这样、该撒的物当归给该撒、　神的物当归给神。

He asked them, "Whose is this image and inscription?" They said to him, "Caesar's." Then he said to them, "Give therefore to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's."

主耶稣！谢谢祢在这里的教诲, 神的物当归给神。约伯说, 我赤身出于母胎, 也必赤身归回, 赏赐的是耶和华, 收取的也是耶和华。耶和华的名是应当称颂的。主啊！我要定位, 我要做一个好管家, 因为, 我所有的都是神所赐的, 凡事都要荣耀神。

2/12/2021 选上的人少

太22:13-14

于是王对使唤的人说、捆起他的手脚来、把他丢在外边的黑暗里．在那里必要哀哭切齿了。因为被召的人多、选上的人少。

Then the king said to the servants, 'Bind him hand and foot, take him away, and throw him into the outer darkness; there is where the weeping and grinding of teeth will be.'

For many are called, but few chosen."

主耶稣！我想起, 那年被召入伍当兵, 根据个人的表现, 有的被选去担承军官, 有的被选去特种部队。主啊！感谢天父的恩典, 从天上召我, 我要忠心不二的跟随祢的教导。
