讀經:使徒行傳第十七章

默想:「我們生活、動作、存留,都在乎祂。」(徒17:28)

默想一:人怎麼認識神?有限的人怎能認識無限的神?感謝神,祂藉著所創造的萬物啟示祂自己,更藉著耶穌基督具體地彰顯神的愛、聖潔、公義、榮美。認識耶穌基督就能認識這位創造的神。也唯有相信耶穌基督,才能成為神的兒女,重新與天父上帝建立和好的關係。

默想二:既然人是神所造,人怎麼還要造偶像當神來拜呢?既然神只差耶穌拯救世人,世人怎麼會自作聰明地來發明或自創宗教?不要被騙了!讓我們單單地敬拜造人的真神,而不是拜人造的假神。

禱告:感謝天父,因袮藉著耶穌基督讓我們認識袮的創造、救贖、啟示,也藉著耶穌基督認識了神的愛與拯救。既然我的生活、動作、存留都在乎袮,求袮幫助我如何善用時間,並把握機會多服事袮。讓我的一生只為榮耀袮而活。奉主耶穌得勝的名禱告。阿們!

Bible Reading: Acts 17.

Insight:  “For in him we live and move and have our being.” (Act 17:28)

Insight one: How do people know God? How can a limited person know the infinite God? Thank God for He reveals Himself through all that He has created. Through Jesus Christ, substantially manifests God’s love, holiness, righteousness, and glory. Knowing Jesus Christ is knowing the true God. It only by believes in Jesus Christ that you can become a child of God, reconcile and re-establish the relationship with God the Father.

Insight two: Since human beings are created by God, why people build idols to worship? Since God sent only Jesus to save the world, how can there be so many man-crafted and self-declared religions? Don’t be fooled! Let us solely worship the true God who created human beings, not the false god who fabricated by people.

Prayer: Thank heavenly Father, through Jesus Christ, You let us know about Your creation, redemption, and revelation, and also through Jesus Christ, we learn the love and salvation of God. For in You we live and move and have our being, please help me to make good use of time and seize the opportunity to serve You more. Let me live my life only to glorify You. I pray in the victorious name of the Lord Jesus. Amen!
