260靈修12月30日:羅馬書 8:18-39
粵語聖經(和合本)聆聽: 國語聖經(和合本)聆聽: 全章經文: www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+8&version=CUV 12月30日 主裡得勝 羅馬書 8:18-39 (聖經新譯本) 耐心期待將來的榮耀 18 我看現在的苦難,與將要向我們顯出的榮耀,是無法相比的。 19 被造的萬物都熱切渴望 神的眾子顯現出來。 20 因為被造的萬物服在虛空之下,不是自己願意這樣,而是由於使它屈服的那一位; 21 被造的萬物盼望自己得著釋放,脫離敗壞的奴役,得著 神兒女榮耀的自由。 22 我們知道被造的萬物直到現在都一同在痛苦呻吟。 23 不但這樣,連我們這些有聖靈作為初熟果子的人,自己也在內心歎息,熱切期待成為嗣子,就是我們的身體得贖。 24 我們得救時就存著這盼望;但是看得見的盼望不是盼望,因為誰會盼望自己看見了的呢? 25 但如果我們盼望沒有看見的,就會耐心地熱切期待。 26 照樣,聖靈也在我們的軟弱上幫助我們。原來我們不曉得應當怎樣禱告,但聖靈親自用不可言喻的歎息,替我們祈求。 27 那鑒察人心的,曉得聖靈的心意,因為聖靈照著 神的旨意替聖徒祈求。 28 我們知道,為了愛 神的人,就是按他旨意蒙召的人的益處,萬事都一同效力。 29 因為 神預先知道的人,他就預先命定他們和他兒子的形象一模一樣,使他的兒子在許多弟兄中作長子, 30 他預先命定的人,又呼召他們;所召來的人,又稱他們為義;所稱為義的人,又使他們得榮耀。 靠主就得勝有餘 31 既是這樣,我們對這一切還有甚麼話說呢? 神若這樣為我們,誰能敵對我們呢? 32 他連自己的兒子都捨得,為我們眾人把他交出來,難道不也把萬有和他一同白白地賜給我們嗎? 33 誰能控告 神揀選的人呢?有 神稱我們為義了。 34 誰能定我們的罪呢?有基督耶穌死了,而且復活了,現今在 神的右邊,也替我們祈求。 35 誰能使我們與基督的愛隔絕呢?是患難嗎?是困苦嗎?是迫害嗎?是飢餓嗎?是赤身露體嗎?是危險嗎?是刀劍嗎? 36 正如經上所記: “為你的緣故,我們終日面對死亡, 人看我們像待宰的羊。” 37 但靠著愛我們的那一位,我們在這一切事上就得勝有餘了。 38 因為我深信:無論是死、是生,是天使、是掌權的,是現在的事,是將來的事,是有能力的, 39 是高天的、是深淵的,或是任何別的被造之物,都不能叫我們與 神的愛隔絕,這愛是在我們的主耶穌基督裡的。 默想: 你認為生活在這個墮落的世界,最困擾你的是什麼?22-25節怎樣可以幫助你渡過苦難考驗的時期? 你是否曾經有過不想禱告,或不知如何禱告的情況?聖靈如何幫助你渡過? 38-39節中所列出的仇敵,哪一個對你是最真實,最能體會到的?這段經文中,最鼓勵你的是哪一段? 主啊,感謝你,因為你是無所不知的神,我是你羊群中的一個。感謝你,因為沒有任何一件事,能夠叫我與神的愛隔絕,而這愛是在主耶穌基督裡的。求你幫助我尋求你的國並你的義,且緊抓住你的愛與真理。
