聖經閱讀:但以理書6:1-24 現代中譯本|合和本
2013年4月15日(一)
希伯來書第11章並沒有提到但以理,但是在第32節中,作者談到了先知的信心。但以理是舊約時代的先知,他向人們傳講上帝的信息。 但以理事奉大流士王,但有些人卻嫉妒他,所以他們就說服國王簽訂一條禁令,規定30天內只准向國王祈求禱告,如果有人向國王以外的任何對象禱告,就得被扔進獅子坑。 但以理相信,無論發生什麼事上帝都會看顧他。今天閱讀的經節告訴我們,但以理仍然持續「在開著的窗子前跪下,照他往常的習慣,每天三次向上帝獻上感謝和禱告」(第10b節)。 後來,但以理被扔進獅子坑裡,但是有一位天使「封住獅子的口」(第22a節)。上帝保護了但以理並且祝福他。無論今天你面對什麼事情,記得上帝將與你同在並且會保護你。 —JK 「上帝差派天使來封住獅子的口,使牠們不能傷害我。上帝這樣做,因為他知道我無辜」 但以理書6:22a
禱告:天父,我願學像但以理那樣相信祢。奉耶穌的名,阿們!

Bible Reading: Daniel 6:1-24
Monday, April 15, 2013
Hebrews, chapter 11, does not mention Daniel. But in verse 32 the writer talks about the faith of the prophets. Daniel was a prophet in the Old Testament who spoke God’s message to people. Daniel served King Darius. But some men were jealous of Daniel. So they persuaded the king to sign a law saying that for 30 days the people could only pray to the king. If a person prayed to someone other than the king, they would be thrown into a den with lions. Daniel had faith that God would take care of him no matter what happened. Our Bible verses today tell us that Daniel continued praying “to God three times every day. Three times every day, he bowed down on his knees to pray and praise God” (verse 10b). Daniel was thrown into the den with the lions. But an angel “closed the lions’ mouths” (verse 22b). God protected Daniel and blessed him. No matter what you face today, remember that God will be with you and protect you. —JK “My God sent his angel to save me...The lions have not hurt me because my God knows I am innocent.” Daniel 6:22a
PRAYER: Father, I want to be like Daniel and have faith in You. In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
