双语灵修丨葛培理布道团:胜过试探(2020.02.20)

我将你的话藏在心里,免得我得罪你。(诗119:11)

Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.  —Psalm 119:11

当试探来临的时候,我强烈建议你祈求上帝加给你力量,并且指引你走在他为你预备的道路上。另外我需要提醒你,不要把自己放在容易被试探的位置上。我们每个人会有不同的弱点和试探。对一些人来说,酒精是一种试探;对另外一些人来说,不洁的思想行为是一种试探;还有一些人贪婪、偏激不友善等。总之,不管面临怎样的试探,要知道撒旦肯定在软弱处试探你,而不是在刚强处。那么,如何抵挡魔鬼的试探,神已经为我们做了一个榜样。当他在旷野被魔鬼一次次试探的时候,他都是借着圣经的话语击败撒旦的诡计。

When temptations come, let me suggest that you ask God for strength-and also to show you the way He has prepared for your escape. One other word of counsel; be very sure that you do not deliberately place yourself in a position to be tempted. All of us are not subjected to the same weaknesses and temptations. To one, alcohol may be the temptation; to another, it may be impure thoughts and acts; to another, greed and covetousness; to another, criticism and an unloving attitude. Regardless of what it may be, be sure that Satan will tempt you at your weak point, not the strong. Our Lord has given us an example of how to overcome the devil’s temptations. When He was tempted in the wilderness, He defeated Satan every time by the use of the Bible.

今日祷告:
全能的主啊,有圣经做盾牌,我将勇敢胜过试探!

Prayer for the day: With the shield of Your Word, I will face temptation, almighty God.
