15-23節--牧者的禱告

以弗所書 第1章

保羅一直記掛著那些他帶領信主的信徒,他盼望他們在信主之後,在每天的生活中都能繼續跟從主。他經常為他們代禱;在今天所讀的經文中,我們便看見他的其中一個禱告。他向神祈求甚麼呢?他的祈求包含了多方面,但今天我們只抽取其中一點來討論,那就是:保羅祈求神使信徒「知道他[神]向我們這信的人所顯的能力,是何等浩大」。

保羅告訴我們,神的能力是何等浩大。他指出,神昔日使耶穌基督從死裡復活的大能,今天仍然在信徒身上顯明,信徒可以在生活中體認這種能力。

你曾否想過,神使基督復活的大能,究竟是怎樣的一種大能?耶穌的身體已經被放進墓裡,墓口有大石封住,外面更有士兵看守。而且,耶穌已死去三天。可是,當神的能力臨到耶穌身上,耶穌便從死裡復活;祂不用把墓石滾開或越過士兵的看守,就離開了墓穴。保羅在這裡正是指出,使耶穌復活的這種能力,就是我們信徒今天在生活和事奉中可經歷到的能力。

我們若說:「是的,我曉得神有能力使耶穌基督從死裡復活,可是,神卻沒有能力來幫助我勝過試探!」這豈不是很可笑?神每時每刻都與我們同在,而祂的能力也永不改變。祂當然願意幫助我們,祂只是等候我們向祂求助。我們若然失敗跌倒,就只怪我們沒有求祂在我們的生命中顯出大能吧了!

趕快向神禱告吧!讓我們向祂祈求說:「父啊,我相信你的大能。求你在我的生命中顯出你的大能和成就你的旨意。」

A PASTORS PRAYER FOR HIS PEOPLE

Paul was always anxious that those who came to know Christ through him should go on with Christ in daily living. He prayed very often for them all and here in these verses is one of those prayers. What did he ask God for? Let’s take just one point and talk about it today. Paul prays ‘that you might know the greatness of God’s power’.

Paul tells us how great God’s power is. He says that the power that God used when he raised Jesus Christ from the dead is still available and active today and we can know its strength in our lives.

Can you think about God’s power that raised Christ? His body was in a sealed tomb and over the doorway was a huge stone. Soldiers were standing guard. Jesus had been dead for three days. Yet when God reached down and touched the body of Jesus with new life, he came out of the tomb without even rolling away the stone or being stopped by the guards. And Paul says that same power can be known by us in our lives and service today.

How foolish we would be if we said, ‘Yes, I know God raised Jesus Christ from the dead, but he can’t help me fight against temptation!’ God is with us today and his power is the same. He is waiting for us to ask him to help us. He is willing to do it. If we fail it’s because we haven’t allowed him to use his mighty power in our lives.

Why not pray today, ‘Father, I believe in your great power. Please help me to allow you to do what you want to do in my life today.’
