【双语灵修】愿你的旨意成就Your Will Be Done

音频

“‘我们在天上的父,愿人都尊你的名为圣。愿你的国降临。愿你的旨意行在地上,如同行在天上。’” - 太6:9–10

当我们祷告说“愿你的旨意行在地上,如同行在天上。”时,我们是在祈求神帮助我们去效法在天上忠心事奉神的天使和其他活物的榜样(参看启示录 4-5章)。活在世上时,身为神国的子民,我们祈求我们会得到力量和引导——在此时此地——来遵行神的旨意。作为神的儿女,我们愿意甘心乐意地事奉祂。

然而,任何曾被试探的人,都知道由撒但统领的强大权势也同时存在,它们尝试引诱神的子民离开神和参与它们的叛逆。在以弗所书 6:12保罗这样说:“因我们并不是与属血气的争战,乃是与那些执政的,掌权的,管辖这幽暗世界的,以及天空属灵气的恶魔争战。”

凡藉着基督得蒙救赎的人,都得到新的和永远的生命。然而我们仍需继续倚靠住在我们里面基督的圣灵的能力,忠心地为神的荣耀和祂的国度过每一天。

这就是我们祈求:“愿你的国降临…”的原因。

你如何在今天遵行神的旨意呢?

祷告

天父啊,求你帮助我今天遵行你的旨意。惟愿我所有的意念、言语、和行为,都符合你的国民的身份!奉耶稣名祈求,阿们。

马太福音 6:9-13

9“所以,你们祷告要这样说:‘我们在天上的父,愿人都尊你的名为圣,
10愿你的国降临,愿你的旨意行在地上,如同行在天上。
11我们日用的饮食,今日赐给我们。
12免我们的债,如同我们免了人的债。
13不叫我们遇见试探,救我们脱离凶恶。因为国度、权柄、荣耀,全是你的,直到永远。阿们。’

Your Will Be Done

"Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven." - Matthew 6:9-10

When we pray, "Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven," we are asking God to help us follow the example of the angels and other creatures who serve God faithfully in the heavenly realms (see Revelation 4-5). We are praying that we may have the strength and the guidance to do God's will as we live here on earth, as citizens of God's kingdom—here and now. As God's children, we want to serve him willingly and cheerfully.

But as anyone who has been tempted knows, there are also powerful forces, led by Satan, that try to lure God's people away to join them in rebellion. Paul writes in Ephesians 6:12, "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms."

All who have been redeemed through Christ are given new, eternal life. Yet we continue to rely on the power of the Holy Spirit of Christ living in us to live faithfully each day for the glory of God and his kingdom.

That is why we pray, "Your will be done.... "

In what ways are you doing God's will today?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, help me to do your will today. May my every thought, word, and deed be fitting for a citizen of your kingdom! In Jesus' name, Amen.
