《今日靈修默想》:「耶穌基督,昨日、今日、一直到永遠是一樣的。」(來13:8)

默想一:在這短暫的世界裏,你依靠的是甚麼?父母嗎?朋友嗎?神學家嗎?教育家嗎?政治家嗎?電影明星嗎?總統嗎?他們總有一天都要離開你的。但信靠主的大可放心,因為我們的主已經勝過了世界(約16:33)。祂應許永不離開我們,祂向我們所顯的慈愛永遠常存。

默想二:你的生命及生活要繼續靠人靠山嗎?及時轉眼仰望耶穌基督吧。祂本來是富足,卻為我們成了貧窮,但祂仍舊是一樣。祂在世受盡迫害與羞辱,但祂對我們的愛從不改變,連死也不能改變祂。祂被埋葬,又復活,但祂仍是我們所信的那一位主。如今,祂坐在父神寶座的右邊,但祂仍然沒有改變。我們有這樣一位永不改變的主,我們當感謝讚美祂,不是嗎?

禱告:天父上帝,我要感謝袮,世界在變,但祢是昨日、今日、一直到永遠都是一樣,祢的恩典、慈愛、信實、大能、供應、保護永不變。因我有永活的神,我不再為明天或將來擔憂。只求祢繼續堅固我的信心,我願一生永遠投靠祢。奉耶穌基督的名禱告,阿們!

《Today’s spiritual meditation》:  “Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever.” (Heb 13:8)

Meditation one: In this short and temporary world, whom do you rely on? Are they your parents, friends, theologians, educators, politicians, movie stars, or the president? Eventually, they all will be leaving you someday. However, to trust the Lord is reassuring, because our Lord has overcome the world (Joh 16:33). He has promised never to leave us, and the love that He revealed to us will abide forever.

Meditation two: Do you still rely on people or power for your living and your life? Turn your eyes upon Jesus Christ in time. Though He was rich, yet for our sake He became poor, but He is still the same. He was persecuted and humiliated in this world, but His love for us never changes, and even death cannot change Him. He was buried and resurrected, and He is still the same Lord we believe in. Today, He sits on the right hand of the throne of God, but He still has not changed. We have such a Lord who will never change. Let us thank and praise Him, right?

Prayer: God heavenly Father, I want to thank You. For the world is changing, but You are the same yesterday, today, and forever. Your grace, love, faithfulness, power, supply, and protection will never change. Since I have a living God, I am no longer worried about tomorrow or the future. Please continue to strengthen my faith, and I will take refuge in You forever. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
