Feb 27【每日活水】在旷野的光景下经历神的大能

 

马可福音 6:30~44

耶稣给五千人吃饱

30 使徒聚集到耶稣那里,将一切所做的事、所传的道全告诉他。

31 他就说:「你们来,同我暗暗地到旷野地方去歇一歇。」这是因为来往的人多,他们连吃饭也没有工夫。

32 他们就坐船,暗暗地往旷野地方去。

33 众人看见他们去,有许多认识他们的,就从各城步行,一同跑到那里,比他们先赶到了。

34 耶稣出来,见有许多的人,就怜悯他们,因为他们如同羊没有牧人一般,于是开口教训他们许多道理。

35 天已经晚了,门徒进前来,说:「这是野地,天已经晚了,

36 请叫众人散开,他们好往四面乡村里去,自己买什么吃。」

37 耶稣回答说:「你们给他们吃吧。」门徒说:「我们可以去买二十两银子的饼给他们吃吗?」

38 耶稣说:「你们有多少饼,可以去看看。」他们知道了,就说:「五个饼,两条鱼。」

39 耶稣吩咐他们,叫众人一帮一帮地坐在青草地上。

40 众人就一排一排地坐下,有一百一排的,有五十一排的。

41 耶稣拿着这五个饼,两条鱼,望着天祝福,擘开饼,递给门徒,摆在众人面前,也把那两条鱼分给众人。

42 他们都吃,并且吃饱了。

43 门徒就把碎饼碎鱼收拾起来,装满了十二个篮子。 44吃饼的男人共有五千。

Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand

30 The apostles gathered around Jesus and reported to him all they had done and taught.

31 Then, because so many people were coming and going that they did not even have a chance to eat, he said to them, “Come with me by yourselves to a quiet place and get some rest.”

32 So they went away by themselves in a boat to a solitary place.

33 But many who saw them leaving recognized them and ran on foot from all the towns and got there ahead of them.

34 When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them, because they were like sheep without a shepherd. So he began teaching them many things.

35 By this time it was late in the day, so his disciples came to him. “This is a remote place,” they said, “and it’s already very late.

36 Send the people away so that they can go to the surrounding countryside and villages and buy themselves something to eat.”

37 But he answered, “You give them something to eat.”
They said to him, “That would take more than half a year’s wages! Are we to go and spend that much on bread and give it to them to eat?”

38 “How many loaves do you have?”he asked. “Go and see.”
When they found out, they said, “Five—and two fish.”

39 Then Jesus directed them to have all the people sit down in groups on the green grass.

40 So they sat down in groups of hundreds and fifties.

41 Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to his disciples to distribute to the people. He also divided the two fish among them all.

42 They all ate and were satisfied,

43 and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces of bread and fish.

44 The number of the men who had eaten was five thousand.

 

内容观察

1.耶稣吩咐门徒给众人食物,门徒如何回答?(37节)

2.耶稣用五饼二鱼行了怎样的神迹?(41~44节)

 

思考与默想

 

3.为什么耶稣在行神迹之前,先对门徒说“你们给他们吃吧”?
 

个人感受

4.耶稣希望门徒信靠祂使不可能变为可能的大能,对此我有什么感想?
 

决心与应用

5.我何时曾没能信靠主,以致无法经历主的大能?

6.为了在有如旷野的生活中经历神的大能,我决定要怎么做?

怜悯他们(34节): 指有如肝肠寸断般痛苦,显明耶稣向需要听见福音得救的灵魂怀抱悲悯的心肠。
两百个银币(37节):相当于当时一个工人200天的工价。
望着天祝福(41节):耶稣在行五饼二鱼神迹时倚靠神的大能。
五千(44节):若将女性和孩童包含在内,则至少超过一万人。

灵修指南

耶稣和门徒为了从忙碌的事工抽身出来休息,就往旷野去(31节)。众人为了见到耶稣,也往同样的地方去(33-~34节)。天色已晚,耶稣吩咐门徒给众人食物,门徒回说需要许多资金,才能购买足够食物喂饱这些人(37节)。耶稣当然知道这一点,可是祂这样问是希望门徒明白自己的局限和无助,以致全心信靠并倚赖祂的大能。最终耶稣再次展现了神的大能,祂以孩童所带的五饼二鱼使五千名成年男性吃饱(41节)。如今,我们不免也会面对如同旷野的生命光景,但愿我们都能在其中更深信靠主,仰望并经历祂荣耀的工作。
 

内室祷告

愿我在有如旷野般的光景下,能够更深信靠主,仰望并经历祂荣耀的工作。
