今日佳音

真正的大能首先为众人

寻求一个公义、医治，和修复的生命。

这种方式的生活最不可能让你被关注，

也不会让你

在别人的心目中占据首位。

做仆人的力量

Servant Power

“你们知道外邦人有君王为主治理他们，有大臣操权管束他们。只是在你们中间不可这样。你们中间谁愿为大，就必作你们的用人。” - 太 20:25-26

“You know that the rulers of the Gentiles . . . exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant.” — Matthew 20:25-26

西庇太一家有个计划。耶稣渐渐出名了，有关祂的神迹和教导的话正在四处传播。西庇太兄弟雅各和约翰曾是最先跟随耶稣的人，现在他们想确保自己在耶稣的国中占据首位。但耶稣却不以为然。

The family of Zebedee had a plan. Jesus was gaining a reputation. Word was getting around about his miracles and teachings. The Zebedee brothers, James and John, had been among the first to follow Jesus, and now they wanted to make sure they would have top positions in Jesus’ kingdom. But Jesus was not impressed.

人们总是花很多精力去寻求建立自己，努力证明自己的价值，寻求最大的利益和回报。但耶稣却对伟大和能力有着极其不同的理解。真正的伟大所呈现的，是一种仆人的样式，并降服于神的旨意。在神的国中，真正的伟大，是承认藉着耶稣的死和复活，我们的救恩是稳妥的，我们的罪已被赦免。我们没有做任何事来赚取它，我们也不能做任何事来配得上它。

People spend a lot of energy seeking to establish themselves, trying to prove their worth, and seeking the best possible benefits and rewards. But Jesus teaches a radically different understanding of greatness and power. True greatness takes on the form of a servant, submitting to the will of God. True greatness in the kingdom of God recognizes that our salvation is secure and our sins are forgiven through Jesus’ death and resurrection. We have done nothing to earn it, and we can’t do anything to deserve it.

在神国中，真正的大能不会在意被人关注和占据领先的需要。真正的大能首先为众人寻求一个公义、医治，和修复的生命。这种方式的生活最不可能让你被关注，也不会让你在别人的心目中占据首位。它乃是一种行公义，好怜悯，存谦卑的心，与神同行的生活（弥迦书6:8），它有着福音那赐人生命的大能。

True power in the kingdom of God lets go of the need to be noticed and the need to be first. True power seeks first a life of righteousness, healing, and restoration for all. This way of life will most likely not get you noticed. Neither will it make you first in people’s minds. But a life lived doing justice, loving mercy, and walking humbly with God (Micah 6:8) has the life-giving power of the gospel.

🙏 祷告

主耶稣，祢透过祢的生、死，和复活向我们启示祢的伟大和慈爱，愿我们的生命能彰显这些。求祢使我们成为公义的仆人、和平的器皿，奉祢的名求，阿们。

Prayer

Lord Jesus, may our lives reflect the power, greatness, and love you revealed to us through your life, death, and resurrection. Make us servants of justice and instruments of peace, we pray. Amen.
