Feb 6【每日活水】在祷告中得着力量

 

马可福音1:35~45

在加利利各会堂传道
路4‧42-44
35  次日早晨,天未亮的时候,耶稣起来,到旷野地方去,在那里祷告。 
36  西门和同伴追了他去, 
37  遇见了就对他说:「众人都找你。」 
38  耶稣对他们说:「我们可以往别处去,到邻近的乡村,我也好在那里传道,因为我是为这事出来的。」 
39  于是在加利利全地,进了会堂,传道,赶鬼。
洁净长大麻风的人
太8‧1-4路5‧12-16
40  有一个长大麻风的来求耶稣,向他跪下,说:「你若肯,必能叫我洁净了。」 
41  耶稣动了慈心,就伸手摸他,说:「我肯,你洁净了吧!」 
42  大麻风即时离开他,他就洁净了。 
43  耶稣严严地嘱咐他,就打发他走, 
44  对他说:「你要谨慎,什么话都不可告诉人,只要去把身体给祭司察看,又因为你洁净了,献上摩西所吩咐的礼物,对众人作证据。」 
45  那人出去,倒说许多的话,把这件事传扬开了,叫耶稣以后不得再明明地进城,只好在外边旷野地方。人从各处都就了他来。
Jesus Prays in a Solitary Place
35  Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. 
36  Simon and his companions went to look for him, 
37  and when they found him, they exclaimed: “Everyone is looking for you!”
38  Jesus replied, “Let us go somewhere else—to the nearby villages—so I can preach there also. That is why I have come.”
39  So he traveled throughout Galilee, preaching in their synagogues and driving out demons.
Jesus Heals a Man With Leprosy
40  A man with leprosy came to him and begged him on his knees, “If you are willing, you can make me clean.”
41  Jesus was indignant. He reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,”he said. “Be clean!”
42  Immediately the leprosy left him and he was cleansed.
43  Jesus sent him away at once with a strong warning: 
44  “See that you don’t tell this to anyone. But go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”
45  Instead he went out and began to talk freely, spreading the news. As a result, Jesus could no longer enter a town openly but stayed outside in lonely places. Yet the people still came to him from everywhere.
 

内容观察

1. 耶稣在天亮之前起来做什么?(35节)

2.耶稣如何治好嘛疯病人?(41~42节)

 

思考与默想

 

3.耶稣为什么在忙碌的事工当中,也不忘在天亮之前到旷野去祷告?
 

个人感受

4.祷告与神交通能带下属天的力量、帮助人专心完成使命,对此我有什么感想?
 

决心与应用

5.我何时曾在祷告中经历属天的力量,以致专心完成使命?

6.为了与神建立亲密的交通,我决定要怎么做?

旷野地方(35节):远离人群,适合与神安静交通的场所。
嘛疯病人(40节):当时的麻疯病人要剃发、撕裂衣服,使人远远看见就能避开。其他人看到他们的时候,也要大喊“不洁净”,以防他们传染给其他人。
千万不可告诉任何人(44节):耶稣担心神迹的传闻只会引发人们好奇、单单寻求肉体的医治,却没有带来灵性的改变。
 

灵修指南

耶稣将忙碌的事工摆在一边,在天亮前到旷野独自祷告(35~36节)。耶稣透过行动告诉门徒,他作为“人”,需要时常借着祷告与父神连结,领受属天的能力,以持守神对他的旨意。之后,耶稣走遍全加利利传讲福音和赶鬼时,有一个麻疯病人来求耶稣洁净他(40节)。耶稣对他动了慈心,伸手摸他,他就得着医治(41~42节)。然而,耶稣特别叮嘱他不得散布这件事,因为他要专心完成救恩的计划。面对繁忙的事工,耶稣坚持透过祷告与父神交通,得着力量以专心完成神的托付。盼望我们学习像耶稣一样,在祷告中与神交通得着力量,并忠心完成神所托付的使命。
 

内室祷告

愿我时刻透过祷告与神建立亲密的交通,领受属天的力量来完成神所托付的使命。
