聖經閱讀：馬太福音2:14-15 現代中譯本|合和本

何西阿是上帝所使用的另一位先知來告訴人們將來會發生的事。何西阿在何西阿書11:1分享了上帝的話：「上主說：以色列還是幼童的時候，我已經愛他；我把他當作自己的兒子，從埃及帶出來」。大約700多年後，這個預言應驗了。今天閱讀的經文告訴我們：「於是，約瑟動身，連夜帶著孩子和他的母親逃往埃及，住在那裏，直到希律死了。這事是要應驗主藉著先知說的話：『我從埃及把我的兒子召出來』」。 上帝預先就知道約瑟、馬利亞和耶穌會必須離開以色列到埃及，好讓希律不會殺掉耶穌。之後，約瑟、馬利亞和耶穌回到以色列並住在拿撒勒。 上帝是全能的神，祂知道每一件事，祂知道過去發生的事，也知道現在正發生的事，還有未來會發生的事。上帝不是很奇妙嗎？ —CPE* 「要讚美上主！ 唱歌頌讚我們的上帝是多麼美善！ 讚美他是多麼愉快，多麼合宜！ 」 詩篇147:1
禱告：上帝，祢深知一切，祢是何等奇妙！奉耶穌的名，阿們！

Prophecies (4)
Bible Reading: Matthew 2:14-15

Hosea is another prophet God used to tell people something that would happen in the future. Hosea shared these words from God in Hosea 11:1: “The Lord said, ‘I loved Israel when he was a child, and I called my son out of Egypt.’” About 700 years later, that prophecy was fulfilled. Our Bible verses today tell us, “So Joseph got ready and left for Egypt with the child and the mother. They left during the night. Joseph stayed in Egypt until Herod died. This gave full meaning to what the Lord said through the prophet: ‘I called my son to come out of Egypt.’” God knew ahead of time that Joseph, Mary and Jesus would have to leave Israel and go to Egypt so Herod would not kill Jesus. Then, Joseph, Mary and Jesus went back to Israel and lived in Nazareth. God is all-powerful. He knows everything. He knows what has happened in the past, what is happening right now and what will happen in the future. Isn’t God amazing? —CPE* “Praise the Lord because he is good. Sing praises to our God. It is good and pleasant to praise him.” Psalm 147:1
PRAYER: God, You know everything. You are amazing! In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
