彼得被囚
聖經閱讀：使徒行傳12:1-17 現代中譯本|合和本
2014年8月1日(五)

希律王不喜歡基督徒，他殺害了一些基督徒並將其他人關進牢裡。今天的經文告訴我們，希律王逮捕了彼得並把他關在監獄。 　彼得在牢房的一個晚上，一個天使向彼得顯現，他告訴彼得穿好衣服跟他走。天使帶領彼得通過警衛、離開了監獄。 　彼得去到他的朋友聚集禱告的一個房子，一個名叫羅大的女人出來應門。當看見彼得時，她高興到忘了開門就跑回去告訴大家，說彼得就在門外。但是，他們都不相信她。 　彼得的朋友禱告祈求上帝讓彼得被釋放，但是他們卻不相信上帝真的已經帶領彼得離開了監獄。當我們禱告時，我們必須相信上帝會回應我們的禱告。上帝垂聽你的禱告，並且祂會將對你、以及對祂的國度最好的東西賜給你！ —DJH 「不過，你們要憑著信心求，不可有絲毫疑惑；疑惑的人好像海中的波浪，被風吹動，翻騰不已。」 雅各書1:6 禱告：上帝，我不懷疑祢，我願永遠相信祢。奉主耶穌的名，阿們！ (英家慶譯)

Peter In Jail
Bible Reading: Acts 12:1-17
Friday, August 1, 2014

King Herod did not like Christians. He killed some Christians and others he put in jail. Our Bible verses tell us that King Herod arrested Peter and put him in jail. 　One night while Peter was in jail, an angel appeared to Peter. He told Peter to get dressed and follow Him. The angel led Peter past the guards and out of the jail. 　Peter went to a house where his friends were meeting to pray. A woman named Rhoda came to the door of the house. When she saw Peter, she was so happy that she forgot to open the door. She told the people in the house that Peter was at the door. They did not believe her. 　Peter’s friends prayed and asked God to free Peter. But they did not believe that God had really led Peter out of jail. When we pray, we need to believe that God will answer our prayers. God hears your prayers and He will give you what is best for you and for His kingdom. —DJH “But when you ask God, you must believe. Don’t doubt him. Whoever doubts is like a wave in the sea that is blown up and down by the wind.” James 1:6 PRAYER: God, I do not want to doubt You. I always want to have faith in You. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
