讀經：馬太福音第二十六章。
默想：「總要儆醒禱告，免得入了迷惑。你們心靈固然願意，肉體卻軟弱了。」（太26:41）
默想一：我們人有辦法制服或擊敗靈界裡的撒但魔鬼嗎？別太天真了。牠比你想像的更更聰明、更狡猾、更陰險、更惡毒，牠知道「人心固然願意，肉體卻軟弱」的弊病，所以用盡各種招術迷惑人，設法滿足人的慾望，牠的目的不僅是要你跟從牠在黑暗裡生活，並且要你跟牠結盟試探神、反對神。
默想二：基督徒免受撒但迷惑並勝過撒但的方法是什麼？就是時刻地儆醒和禱告！儆醒是對每個被試探的可能提高警覺，敏感於撒但的陰謀詭計，並裝備好靈性來對抗牠。我們必須靠禱告支取神的能力，也唯有靠神就能得勝有餘。不禱告一天，等於墮落一天。無禱告的生命，是無能力的。
禱告：天父上帝，感謝祢知道我是誰，也謝謝袮賜下禱告的權柄。求祢的聖靈指引我，讓我藉著每日的讀經禱告與袮同行，並過儆醒的生活。求袮教導我如何為自己禱告，也教導我如何為別人過得勝的生活代禱。奉耶穌寶貴的名禱告。阿們！
Bible Reading: Matthew 26.
Insight: “Watch and pray so that you will not fall into temptation. The spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” (Mat 26:41)
Insight one: Do we have the means to subdue or defeat the devil Satan in the spirit realm? Don’t be too naive. It is smarter, more cunning, more sinister, and more vicious than you think. It knows people’s ills of “the spirit is willing, but the flesh is weak.” So it uses all kinds of tricks to confuse people and try to satisfy one’s desires, not only for you to live with it in the dark, but also to join it to test God and oppose God.
Insight two: What is the means for Christians to avert and overcome Satan? Just watch and pray at all times! Watch means to be alert to every possible temptation, alert to Satan’s conspiracy, and spiritually well equipped to fight against it. We must gain the power from God through prayer, and God alone can make us more than conquerors. With no prayer for one day is equivalent to letdown for one day. A life without prayer is a life of powerless.
Prayer: God Heavenly Father, thank You for knowing who I am and thank You for giving me the authority to pray. Please let Your Holy Spirit to guide me so that I can through my daily Bible readings to walk with You and live a watchful life. Teach me how to pray for myself, and how I can pray for a victorious life of others. I pray in Jesus’ precious name. Amen!
