经文:
弥迦书4: 1-5
"我们却永永远远奉耶和华我们神的名而行。" 弥4: 5 |
Scripture:
Micah 4:1-5
"We will walk in the name of the LORD our God forever and ever."—Micah 4:5 |
|
弥迦先知形容神未来的国度, 是一个和平与祝福的时代。在某程度上, 神的国已经来临; 但从另一个角度而言, 神国的荣耀尚未完全显露。究竟神的国何时才完全来临呢? 我们不知道, 只知道唯独父知道（马可福音13: 32）。也知道那时候, 万民会蜂涌来到主前, 要学习祂的道, 以致他们也能行在其上。 神最终会审判万民, 平息所有纷争, 而人民则会"将刀打成犁头, 把枪打成镰刀。"神的子民将可欢然安坐在葡萄树和果树下。 好一个美好的未来! 我期望这一天, 肯定你也是。 其实, 我们今天已经可以开始享受神的国所带来的平安（使万物得享平安与繁盛）, 我们已经可以与万王之王及天国的子民相交（以弗所书2: 19）。 神今天已邀请我们改变自己的行为, 好叫我们更能经历祂的平安, 与祂复和。 神国的再来, 要完全更新我们的思想与行为! 我们若今天与神同行, 就已经开始了这个美好的更新。 |
Micah describes the coming kingdom of God as a time of peace and blessing. In one sense, God's kingdom is already here, but in another sense, the full glory of the kingdom still needs to be revealed. We don't know when that will be; only the Father knows (Mark 13:32). In the meantime people of all nations will flock to the Lord to learn his ways so that they too can walk in his paths. God will eventually judge all the nations and settle every dispute. And people who were at war "will beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning hooks." God's people will be able to enjoy the pleasant shade of their vines and fruit trees. What a wonderful future! I am looking forward to that day, as I'm sure you are too. Already today we can begin to enjoy this divine kingdom of shalom (peace and flourishing for all). Already we can experience fellowship with the King and all who are fellow citizens of his kingdom (Ephesians 2:19). Already today God invites us to change our behavior so that we can better experience his peace and reconciliation. Our thoughts and actions are to be shaped by God's coming kingdom! Walking with God, we can begin to enjoy the future today. |
祷告主啊, 愿祢的国早日降临, 以致凡属祢的人都可以享受与祢同在的丰盛生命。今天, 求祢帮助我与祢同行, 好让我也窥见那美好的将来。奉耶稣的名求, 阿们。 |
PrayerLord, we pray that your kingdom will come soon, so that all your people may enjoy full life in your presence. But help us now to walk faithfully with you, and give us a further glimpse of that day. In Jesus, Amen. |
今天经文： 弥迦书4: 1-51 末后的日子, 耶和华殿的山必坚立, 超乎诸山, 高举过于万岭; 万民都要流归这山。2 必有许多国的民前往, 说: 来吧, 我们登耶和华的山, 奔雅各神的殿。 主必将他的道教训我们; 我们也要行他的路。 因为训诲必出于锡安; 耶和华的言语必出于耶路撒冷。 3 他必在多国的民中施行审判, 为远方强盛的国断定是非。 他们要将刀打成犁头, 把枪打成镰刀。 这国不举刀攻击那国; 他们也不再学习战事。 4 人人都要坐在自己葡萄树下 和无花果树下, 无人惊吓。 这是万军之耶和华亲口说的。 5 万民各奉己神的名而行; 我们却永永远远奉耶和华－我们神的名而行。 回到页顶 |
