19-34節--看看施洗約翰的三天事奉

約翰福音 第1章

施洗約翰是一個極不尋常的人。不僅是舊約聖經早已預言了他的事奉，他工作了短短十八個月，就似乎影響了整個猶太國。我們今天從經文中所看到的三天，其實已接近他事奉的尾聲。

第一天

眼見約翰身邊聚集了愈來愈多的群眾，一些宗教領袖便派人來問他兩個問題：「你究竟是誰？」和「你為何替人施洗？」。他們等候約翰的回覆。約翰給了他們一個謙卑的答案：「我只是曠野的呼聲，為要給將來的一位預備道路。」

第二天

「約翰，你說的那個人在哪裡？」「看哪，就是祂了！」約翰指著耶穌說：「祂正是我們一直等候的那個人。祂將會滿足我們最深切的需要。祂將會永遠除去我們的罪孽。」

約翰的工作，也就是我們今天不斷要做的工作--介紹身邊的人認識耶穌基督，直截了當地告訴他們：「祂能夠滿足你的一切需要。祂真的可以，而且，祂就在你的身邊。」

第三天

約翰的門徒逐一地離開他，轉而跟從基督(39至40節)。約翰一定感到難受，然而，他卻能夠說出這樣的一句話：「我這喜樂滿足了」(三29)。當我們聽見別人讚賞其他人勝於自己時，我們會有甚麼感受呢？我們很容易產生妒忌的心。當我們一直渴望承擔某項工作，但最後，被委以重任的卻是另一個人，我們會有甚麼反應呢？約翰最後留下的其中一句話，是「祂必興旺，我必衰微」；我們每個人都應該以此作為人生的座右銘。

禱告：

主啊，求你像昔日帶領人到約翰面前那樣，今天帶領人來到我這裡，讓我懂得像約翰一樣，引領人認識耶穌。

Three Days with John the Baptist

Bible Reading: John 1:19-34

John the Baptist was a remarkable man. Not only was his ministry foretold in the Old Testament, but in the short period of eighteen months, he seems to have moved the whole Jewish nation. The three days we look at were probably toward the end of his lifes work.
The First Day

As the crowds around John increased, the religious leaders sent men to him with two questions - Who are you? and Why do you baptise?. They wanted for an answer. Johns humble reply was I am only a voice that is preparing the way for someone else.

The Second Day

Where is this "someone else", John? There he is, said John, pointing to a man walking slowly toward them. Theres the one weve been waiting for. Theres the one who will meet our deepest needs. He will take away our sin for ever.

This is still our work today - to point men and women to Jesus Christ and simply say, Theres the one who can meet your every need. He can do it and he is right here beside you.

The Third Day

The next day Johns disciples began to leave him and follow Christ (v. 39-40). To watch this happen would not have been easy for John. Yet he was able to say later My joy is fulfilled (John 3:29). How do we feel when people speak more of someone else than they do of us? Jealousy can show up so quickly in all of us. What is our reaction when someone else is asked to do what we wanted to do? Almost Johns final words were He must increase, I must decrease. That phrase would make a great life motto for everyone of us.

A Prayer for Today:

Lord, please lead someone to me today as you led people to John. Help me to point them to Jesus as he did.
