更加成長茁壯

更加成長茁壯
聖經閱讀：歌羅西書2:6-10 現代中譯本|合和本
2013年10月4日(五)

今天經文的第6-7節說：「既然你們接受基督耶穌為主，你們的行為必須以他為中心，在他裏面扎根，生長，建立信心；你們就是這樣受教的。你們也要充滿著感謝的心。」 　身為基督徒，我們必須確保在信心上更加成長茁壯，並且委身於上帝。最近，我參與了一個查經班，在那裡我們談到如何增進跟上帝的關係。查經班的老師教我們做一些事情，讓我們可以更親近上帝。 　首先，我們可以重新開始去愛人，並且天天服事上帝；其次，我們可以服事別人；第三，我們可以研讀聖經並將它應用到生活上；第四，我們可以藉著禱告跟上帝交通；以及第五，我們可以倚靠聖靈來幫助我們。 　你是否想要在信心上更加堅強並委身於上帝呢？記住要更新、要服事、要查經、要交通，並且倚靠聖靈。今天，就讓我們一起成長吧！ —JDA* 「而你們跟基督連結，也得到了豐盛的生命。」 歌羅西書2:10a 禱告：親愛的上帝，我願每一天都更親近祢。奉耶穌的名，阿們！ (尤榮輝譯)

Grow Stronger
Bible Reading: Colossians 2:6-10
Friday, October 4, 2013

Verses 6-7a of our Bible Reading say, “You accepted Christ Jesus as Lord, so continue to live following him. You must depend on Christ only, drawing life and strength from him. Just as you were taught the truth, continue to grow stronger in your understanding of it.” 　As Christians, we need to make sure that we grow stronger in our faith and commitment to God. Recently I was involved in a Bible study where we talked about strengthening our relationships with God. The teacher told us several things we can do to be closer to God. 　First, we can renew our commitment to love and serve God every day. Second, we can serve others. Third, we can study the Bible and apply it to our lives. Fourth, we can communicate with God through prayer. And fifth, we can depend on the Holy Spirit to help us. 　Do you want to grow stronger in your faith and commitment to God? Remember to renew, serve, study, communicate and depend on the Holy Spirit. Let’s grow together today! —JDA* “...because you belong to Christ you are complete, having everything you need.” Colossians 2:10a PRAYER: Dear God, I want to be closer to You each day. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
