《今日靈修默想》:「焉知你得了王后的位分不是為現今的機會嗎?」(斯4:14b)

默想一:你知道神造你的目的嗎?神為何把你放在這個時代裡?你存在的目的與這個時代有甚麼關係?為甚麼神不在你成為基督徒的那一刻就將你接回天家?神揀選以斯帖成為王后是有神的目的。以斯帖因為認識神,就知道神要她活的目的。目的清楚了就要活出目的來,人生才有意義。

默想二:神今天給你的地位和角色是為了什麼?是給你服事神並榮耀神的機會!人生的機會不是很多,因此我們要在有限的時光裡,找到永恆的切入點,抓住機會活出神在我們生命中的美意。當你明白你所擁有的都是來自於神,也都與神的國度有關時,你會把握現今的機會為主用。

禱告:阿爸父神,感謝袮所賜的機會,就是為袮的榮耀而活。求袮賜我智慧,在這彎曲悖謬的世代裡,讓我成為袮在尋找的人,就是明白袮的旨意並善用現今的機會的人。奉主耶穌的聖名禱告,阿們!

《Today’s spiritual meditation》:  “And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?” (Est 4:14b)

Meditation one: Do you know the purpose for God to create you? Why does God put you in this era? What does the purpose of your presence have to do with this era? Why didn’t God bring you back to heaven the very moment you became a Christian? God had His purpose when chose Esther to be a queen. Esther knew God, and knew God’s purpose in her life. When a purpose becomes clear, it is necessary to live out the purpose, then life becomes meaningful.

Meditation two: What is the position and role that God has granted to you today? It’s your chance to serve God and glorify Him! There won’t be too many opportunities in one’s life time, so we must find a cut-in point of eternity within a very limited time frame and seize the opportunity to live out the wonderful purpose of God in our lives. When you understand that all you have is from God and is related to the kingdom of God, you will seize today’s opportunities for the Lord to use.

Prayer: Abba Father, thank You for giving me the opportunity to live for Your glory. Give me wisdom in this crooked and perverse generation. Let me be the one You are looking for, the one who understands Your will and makes the most of today’s opportunities. I pray in the name of the Lord Jesus, Amen!
