虽然我一直在学习如何传福音和植堂, 同时也在这些事工上教导别人, 但我想郑重地提醒大家:我们并非是靠技巧或智谋把人领进耶稣基督的国度的。正如在今天的经文当中耶稣所说的, 成功并不是靠人力或财力的充足。神的国度得以扩张, 是源于谦卑的仆人对神丰富供应的时刻仰赖与信靠。因此, 是基督自己建立祂的国度。 "只等真理的圣灵来了, 他要引导你们明白(原文作进入) 一切的真理。因为他不是凭自己说的, 乃是把他所听见的都说出来。并要把将来的事告诉你们。" (约翰福音16:13) 对, 耶稣应许赐给我们一位保惠师、向导和朋友, 就是圣灵。 我们时常听见神如何为信徒安排"神圣的约会" , 让他们遇见一些在生活上有需要的人。圣灵常常事先已经为这些"约会" 做好各样的准备, 祂帮助我们为这些有需要的人找到有类似经历的人, 或知道有某个人、某本书或某些资源, 可以满足他们的需要。 今天, 重新将自己奉献给耶稣吧, 求祂叫你察觉到并准备好面对这些"神圣的约会" , 只有耶稣才能完全满足各样的需要。 你可以时刻信靠祂。 |
We are students of evangelism and church planting, and we have coached others in these ministry areas. But we want to put forth a big word of caution: It is not by our techniques or clever strategies that people come into the kingdom of Jesus Christ. As Jesus indicates in our text, success isn't dependent on a wealth of human resources. The kingdom grows through humble servant missionaries who depend every moment of every day on Jesus Christ for their provision. Christ builds his kingdom. "When he, the Spirit of truth, comes, he will guide you into all the truth. He will not speak on his own; he will speak only what he hears, and he will tell you what is yet to come" (John 16:13). Jesus promises us a counselor, guide, and friend—the Holy Spirit. We continue to hear how God arranges "divine appointments" for Christians with people who open up to them about needs in their lives. Often the Holy Spirit has provided the exact preparation for a conversation by connecting people who have had a similar experience, or who know a particular person, book, or resource that directly addresses their need. Offer yourself anew to Jesus today. Ask to be made aware and ready for "divine appointments" with no provision but what Jesus gives. You can always trust him. |
祷告主啊, 感谢祢呼召我们参与祢的工作, 求祢教导我们遵行祢的旨意, 因为凡是被福音呼召的人, 都会听从祢的话语。求祢帮助我们谦卑自己, 使我们时刻怀着信靠的心, 去聆听祢的声音。奉耶稣的名求, 阿们! |
PrayerLord, you call us to join in your work. Teach us to follow, knowing that all who hear the gospel call are hearing you. Make us humble. Help us to listen to your voice. Amen. |
今天经文: 路加福音9:1-61 耶稣叫齐了十二个门徒, 给他们能力、权柄, 制伏一切的鬼, 医治各样的病,2 又差遣他们去宣传神国的道, 医治病人, 3 对他们说: "行路的时候, 不要带柺杖和口袋, 不要带食物和银子, 也不要带两件褂子。 4 无论进哪一家, 就住在那里, 也从那里起行。 5 凡不接待你们的, 你们离开那城的时候, 要把脚上的尘土跺下去, 见证他们的不是。" 6 门徒就出去, 走遍各乡宣传福音, 到处治病。 回到页顶 |
