Dec25【每日活水】 预备主再来的道路

 

马太fu yin1:18~25

YS JI DU 降生
18 YS JI DU 降生的事记在下面:他母亲马利亚已经许配了约瑟,还没有迎娶,马利亚就从 SHENG LING 怀了孕。
19 她丈夫约瑟是个义人,不愿意明明地羞辱她,想要暗暗地把她休了。
20 正思念这事的时候,有主的使者向他梦中显现,说:「大卫的子孙约瑟,不要怕!只管娶过你的妻子马利亚来,因她所怀的孕是从 SHENG LING 来的。
21 她将要生一个儿子,你要给他起名叫 YS ,因他要将自己的百姓从罪恶里救出来。」
22 这一切的事成就是要应验主藉先知所说的话,
23 说:必有童女怀孕生子;人要称他的名为以马内利。(以马内利翻出来就是「  SHEN 与我们同在」。)
24 约瑟醒了,起来,就遵着主使者的吩咐把妻子娶过来;
25 只是没有和她同房,等她生了儿子,就给他起名叫 YS 。
Joseph Accepts Jesus as His Son
18 This is how the birth of Jesus the Messiah came about: His mother Mary was pledged to be married to Joseph, but before they came together, she was found to be pregnant through the Holy Spirit.
19 Because Joseph her husband was faithful to the law, and yet did not want to expose her to public disgrace, he had in mind to divorce her quietly.
20 But after he had considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, “Joseph son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary home as your wife, because what is conceived in her is from the Holy Spirit.
21 She will give birth to a son, and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.”
22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet:
23 “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel” (which means “God with us”).
24 When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife.
25 But he did not consummate their marriage until she gave birth to a son. And he gave him the name Jesus.
 

内容观察

1.主的使者对想要暗地里把马利亚休了的约瑟说了什么话?(20~23节)

2.约瑟醒来之后,做出了怎样的回应?(24~25节)

 

思考与默想

 

3. SHEN 差主的使者在梦中向约瑟显现的原因是什么?
 

个人感受

4.看到约瑟顺从 SHEN 的话,将马利亚娶过来,并且没有和她同房,直到她生了儿子,我有什么感想?
 

决心与应用

5.我何时曾凭着信心顺从 SHEN 看似难以理解的呼召?

6.为了感谢 YS 所带来的救/恩,预备主再来的道路,我决定要怎么做?

丈夫(19节)、妻子(20节):犹太人的订婚和结婚有着同等效力,除非犯了奸淫,否则不可悔婚,因此马太称订婚但还没有正式结婚的约瑟和马利亚为丈夫和妻子。

灵/修指南

圣诞节是记念 YS 道成肉身降世为人的喜乐日子,然而当初约瑟得知自己的未婚妻马利亚怀孕的时候,应该没有喜乐,只有惧怕。倘若让人知道马利亚不是从约瑟怀的孕,马利亚恐怕性命难保。因此, SHEN 差主的使者在梦中向约瑟显现,告诉他马利亚是从 SHENG LING 怀的孕,她所要生的儿子要将自己的百姓从罪恶里救出来。又告诉他,以赛亚先知所预言的“以马内利”,即“ SHEN 与我们同在”这一应许,要透过 YS 的诞生得以成就。这些话照着人的理性实在是难以理解,然而约瑟醒来之后,就立刻信靠并顺从了 SHEN 的话。这一信心的顺从为 YS 第一次来到这个世界预备了道路,如今,需要我们透过信心的顺从来预备主再来的道路。盼望我们效法约瑟的信心,即便是难以理解的呼召,也要凭着信心全然信靠和顺从,如此,才能成为 SHEN 圣洁的同工。
 

内室dao告

愿我成为 SHEN 国圣洁的同工,预备主 YS 再来的道路。
