聖經閱讀：使徒行傳16:16-24 現代中譯本|合和本
2014年7月9日(三)
有一天保羅和他的朋友遇到一個女奴，這個女奴被邪靈附身，給了她占卜未來發生什麼事的能力。有一個人擁有這個女孩，靠著她占卜未來的能力幫他賺很多錢。這個女奴一路跟隨保羅和他的朋友，第17b節告訴我們：她「大喊說：『這些人是至高上帝的僕人，要對你們宣佈那得救的道路！』」保羅就命令邪靈從這個女孩身上出去。擁有這個女孩的主人很生氣，因為他們不能再利用這個女孩來賺更多錢。所以，他們就鞭打保羅和西拉並將他們關進監獄。 我們不知道之後這個女孩發生什麼事，我確信她一定很高興免於被邪靈附身。我希望她認識耶穌並成為基督徒。 今天世界上有很多跟隨魔鬼的人，這些人必須認識耶穌和祂白白的救恩禮物。今天就去向人傳講耶穌。 —JK 「（耶穌說：）你們要到世界各地去，向全人類傳福音。」 馬可福音16:15
禱告：上帝，我愛祢，並且願意今天去跟其他人分享祢的愛。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

One day Paul and his friends met a servant girl. This girl had a spirit from the devil that gave her power to tell what would happen in the future. Some men owned this girl and made lots of money when she told about the future. The servant girl started following Paul and his friends. Verse 17b tells us, “She kept shouting, ‘These men are servants of the Most High God! They are telling you how you can be saved!’” Paul commanded the evil spirit to come out of the girl. The men who owned the girl were upset because they couldn’t use the girl to make money any more. So, they had Paul and Silas beaten and thrown into jail. We don’t know what happened to the servant girl after this. I am sure she must have been happy to be free from the evil spirit. I hope that she learned about Jesus and became a Christian. There are many people in the world today who are following the devil. Those people need to know about Jesus and His free gift of salvation. Tell someone about Jesus today. —JK “[Jesus said,] Go everywhere in the world. Tell the Good News to everyone.” Mark 16:15
PRAYER: God, I love You and want to share Your love with other people today. In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
