《今日靈修默想》:約書亞吩咐百姓說:「你們要自潔,因為明天耶和華必在你們中間行奇事。」(書3:5)

默想一:被神使用一定要具備特殊的訓練或什麼資格嗎?不一定!但最根本的要求是在神面前的自潔,在世上分別為聖。我們所事奉的神是聖潔的。非聖潔沒有人能見主;非聖潔根本就不能與聖潔的神同工。你在教會、家庭、職場、學校裡最有力的見證是什麼?活出聖潔。

默想二:你盼望神為你行奇事嗎?你盼望神醫治你的身體嗎?你盼望神解決你的困境嗎?神要我們的配合,就是在神的光中過聖潔的生活。「人若自潔,脫離卑賤的事,就必作貴重的器皿,成為聖潔,合乎主用,預備行各樣的善事」(提後2:21)。當我們潔淨自己,脫離一切的污穢,神就動工,要在我們生命中成就大事。

禱告:親愛的主,感謝祢明白指示合乎祢用的條件和打贏屬靈爭戰的秘訣,就是聖潔。求祢的聖靈引導我,不論在何時何地,我願活出祢的聖潔,在言語、行為、態度、人際關係上,讓人從我身上看出袮的聖潔及榮美。奉主耶穌的名禱告。阿們!

《Today’s spiritual meditation》:  “Consecrate yourselves, for tomorrow the Lord will do amazing things among you.” (Jos 3:5)

Meditation one: Is it necessary to receive special training or to have certain qualifications in order to be used by God? Not necessarily! But the most fundamental requirement is to consecrate oneself before God and sanctify in the world. The God we serve is holy. without sanctification no one will see the Lord; without sanctification no one can serve the holy God at all. What is your most powerful testimony in church, family, workplace, and school? Live out the holiness.

Meditation two: Do you wish that God may to do wonders for you? Do you appeal God to heal your body? Do you expect God to solve your dilemma? What God wants us to correspond with is to live a holy life in the light of God. “Those who cleanse themselves from the latter will be instruments for special purposes, made holy, useful to the Master and prepared to do any good work.” (2Ti 2:21) When we consecrate ourselves and set apart from all the filth, God begins to do great things in our lives.

Prayer: Dear Lord, thank You for clearly showing that holiness is the requirement and the secret to triumph in spiritual warfare in order to become useful to You. Please have Your Holy Spirit to guide me. Whenever and wherever I am, I want to live out Your holiness, in words, deeds, attitudes, and relationships, so people can see Your holiness and glorious beauty through me. I pray in the name of the Lord Jesus. Amen!
