聖經閱讀：創世紀50:15-23 現代中譯本|合和本
2013年4月8日(一)
另一個在希伯來書第11章中被提到的人物是約瑟，他真是一位有信心的人。創世紀第37-45章告訴我們約瑟的生命故事。有許多壞事發生在約瑟身上，他的兄弟們把他賣給別人當奴隸，然後他被帶到埃及。後來，約瑟被誣告並被關到監獄裡，但是上帝總是與約瑟同在。最後，約瑟變成埃及重要的統治者，因為他的身分地位，讓他有能力在飢荒中拯救家人。 今天的聖經閱讀告訴我們約瑟和他兄弟們的故事。約瑟的兄弟們因為曾經對約瑟做了壞事，所以怕約瑟，但是在第20節，約瑟說：「你們本來想害我，但是上帝卻化惡為善，為的是要保存許多人的性命。」 經過了所有這些不幸的遭遇，約瑟仍然相信上帝，他相信上帝會幫助他、保護他。上帝今天也與你同在，祂永遠不會讓你失望。—JK 「但是，你們不要為這件事焦急自責。上帝為了保存大家的性命，親自差我先到這裏來。」 創世記45:5
禱告：上帝，我知道你永遠不會讓我失望。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

Bible Reading: Genesis 50:15-23

Another person mentioned in Hebrews, chapter 11, is Joseph. He was truly a man of faith. Chapters 37-45 of Genesis tell us the story about Joseph’s life. Many bad things happened to Joseph. His brothers sold him into slavery, and he was taken to Egypt. Joseph was falsely accused and sent to prison. But God was always with Joseph. In the end, Joseph became an important ruler in Egypt. Because of his position, he was able to save his family from starvation. Our Bible Reading today tells us about Joseph and his brothers. They were afraid of Joseph because they had done bad things to him. But in verse 20 Joseph said, “It is true that you planned to do something bad to me. But really, God was planning good things. God’s plan was to use me to save the lives of many people.” Through all the bad times, Joseph kept his faith in God. He believed that God would help and protect him. God is with you today, too. He will never fail you. —JK “Now don’t be worried. Don’t be angry with yourselves for what you did. It was God’s plan for me to come here. I am here to save people’s lives.”Genesis 45:5
PRAYER: God, I know that You will never fail me. In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
