聖經閱讀：使徒行傳12:5-19 現代中譯本|合和本

希律王想要摧毀教會，所以他殺了雅各並且把彼得下到監獄。今天的經文告訴我們：「彼得在監獄裡受到嚴密的監視；教會的弟兄姊妹為他懇切向上帝禱告」（第5節）。上帝將彼得從監獄解救出來，之後彼得去到一間屋子，那裡有人在為他禱告。彼得敲了門，一位婢女前來應門，因為她太興奮了以致於連門都還沒有開，就跑進去告訴其他人彼得就在門外。你知道這些在禱告的人怎麼反應嗎？他們說：「你發瘋了！」（第15節） 這些人禱告求上帝從監獄解救彼得，而當上帝回應了他們的禱告，他們卻不相信！有時候我也像這樣，我禱告求助家庭的問題，但是當上帝回應了我的禱告並幫我解決了問題，我卻感到驚訝。 要每天不斷地禱告！並且要相信上帝會回應你的禱告，然後感謝讚美祂。 －SH 「你們禱告要恆切，且要警醒，對上帝存感謝的心。」 歌羅西書4:2
禱告：親愛的天父，謝謝祢回應我的禱告。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

Bible Reading: Acts 12:5-19

King Herod wanted to destroy the church. So Herod killed James and put Peter in prison. Our Bible verses tell us that “Peter was kept in jail, but the church was constantly praying to God for him” (verse 5). God freed Peter from jail. Then Peter went to a house where people were praying for him. Peter knocked on a door, and a servant girl answered it. She was so excited that she didn't even open the door for Peter. She ran inside and told the other people that Peter was at the door. Do you know how these praying people responded? They said (verse 15), “You are crazy!” These people were praying that God would free Peter from jail. And when God answered their prayer, they didn't believe it! Sometimes I am like that. I pray about a family problem. Then I am surprised when God answers my prayer and solves the problem. Keep on praying every day! And believe that God will answer your prayers. Then thank Him and praise Him. —SH* “Never stop praying. Be ready for anything by praying and being thankful.” Colossians 4:2
PRAYER: Dear Father, thank You for answering my prayers. In Jesus' name. Amen. |
