Mar 10【每日活水】借着圣经的话语来胜过试探

 

马太福音4:1~11

耶稣受试探

(可1‧12-13;路4‧1-13)
1  当时,耶稣被圣灵引到旷野,受魔鬼的试探。 
2  他禁食四十昼夜,后来就饿了。 
3  那试探人的进前来,对他说:「你若是 神的儿子,可以吩咐这些石头变成食物。」 
4  耶稣却回答说:「经上记着说:
人活着,不是单靠食物,
乃是靠 神口里所出的一切话。」
5  魔鬼就带他进了圣城,叫他站在殿顶上, 
6  对他说:「你若是 神的儿子,可以跳下去,因为经上记着说:
主要为你吩咐他的使者
用手托着你,
免得你的脚碰在石头上。」
7  耶稣对他说:「经上又记着说:『不可试探主-你的 神。』」 
8  魔鬼又带他上了一座最高的山,将世上的万国与万国的荣华都指给他看, 
9  对他说:「你若俯伏拜我,我就把这一切都赐给你。」 
10  耶稣说:「撒但,退去吧!因为经上记着说:
当拜主-你的 神,
单要事奉他。」
11  于是,魔鬼离了耶稣,有天使来伺候他
Jesus Is Tested in the Wilderness
1  Then Jesus was led by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. 
2  After fasting forty days and forty nights, he was hungry. 
3  The tempter came to him and said, “If you are the Son of God, tell these stones to become bread.”
4  Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”
5  Then the devil took him to the holy city and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. 
6  “If you are the Son of God,” he said, “throw yourself down. For it is written:
“ ‘He will command his angels concerning you,
and they will lift you up in their hands,
so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’”
7  Jesus answered him, “It is also written: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’”
8  Again, the devil took him to a very high mountain and showed him all the kingdoms of the world and their splendor. 
9“All this I will give you,” he said, “if you will bow down and worship me.”
10  Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’”
11  Then the devil left him, and angels came and attended him.

灵修指南

耶稣受了约翰的洗礼后,被圣灵引导到犹大旷野,在那里受魔鬼的试探(1节)。当时,耶稣禁食四十昼夜,如同摩西领受十诫时禁食四十昼夜一样(参出34:28)。这样的处境下,耶稣的身体想必非常疲倦(2节)。接着,魔鬼前来试探耶稣。前两个试探,是要求耶稣证明自己是神的儿子(3.6节),最后一个试探,是以换取世上的荣华来引诱耶稣向魔鬼下拜(9节)。耶稣用旧约中记载的话语来回应这三个诱惑,并借以宣告神的应许和命令(4,7,10节)。
耶稣借着旧约圣经中所启示的话语来胜过试探,证明神的话语具有属神的权柄及能力。并且,这也是要向人揭示,耶稣来到世上,就是为了要成就神的话语。因此,基督徒必须相信圣经所彰显话语的力量。愿我们都能靠着主的话语,胜过生命中的试探。
 

内室祷告

愿我坚定承认圣经话语的权柄及能力,靠着神的话语胜过试探。。
