Be Alert Against The Enemy’s Underhanded Tactics
2019-02-21 in GAMEtime Sharing /by meilingHi GAMErs,
There are many lessons we can learn from today’s passage, 1 Kings 2:13-27. Let’s go!
1 Kings 2:17 (NIV)
17 So he continued, “Please ask King Solomon–he will not refuse you–to give me Abishag the Shunammite as my wife.”
On verses 13-18: Here Adonijah goes to Bathsheba the king’s mother with a request: he asks for Abishag the Shunammite as his wife. Why? It’s not because Adonijah was in love with Abishag, as beautiful as she was. Rather it was a political move. Remember that Abishag was effectively David’s last concubine. Abishag lived with David, took care of David, slept in the same bed as David, though she never had sexual relations with David (see 1 Kings 1:3-4). Back in David’s time, whoever controlled the king’s harem was viewed as controlling the kingdom.
夢想成真
2019-02-21 in 每日親近神 /by meiling馬太福音7: 24-27_夢想成真
24 「所以,凡聽見我這話就去行的,好比一個聰明人,把房子蓋在磐石上。 25 雨淋,水沖,風吹,撞著那房子,房子總不倒塌,因為根基立在磐石上。 26 凡聽見我這話不去行的,好比一個無知的人,把房子蓋在沙土上。 27 雨淋,水沖,風吹,撞著那房子,房子就倒塌了,並且倒塌得很大。」
在這世界上有許多人希望自己的夢想成真。有的人靠著白手起家,有的人想走捷徑發財,有的人天天去買彩票,希望只要有錢在手就可以夢想成真。但是真的有錢就能使夢想成真嗎?輕易得來的錢財雖然可以使一個人的夢想成真,但是那種夢也破滅得特別快。
有一位愛爾蘭婦人在六年前中了彩票,一夕之間搖身一變為三間公司的老闆。但是因為不善經營,不但公司倒閉,之後的她比先前更加潦倒。我有時也夢想一朝醒來,手指彷彿被點了神仙水,可以在鋼琴鍵盤上飛翔奔跑,所過之處都蹦跳出美麗的音樂。幸好我的夢想沒有成真,不然很多鋼琴老師都要氣壞了,沒有學生上門,大家都作夢去了。
神不給我們這樣的滿足,靠著暴財或夢想或短暫的努力就可以夢想成真。祂要我們腳踏實地,經過艱難和持續的努力,才能夢想成真。為何說,小時了了,大未必佳呢?為何說,起初速得的產業,終久卻不為福(箴20:21)?
假牧者和教師
2019-02-21 in 每日親近神 /by meiling馬太福音7: 15-23_假牧者和教師
15 「你們要防備假先知。他們到你們這裡來,外面披著羊皮,裡面卻是殘暴的狼。 16 憑著他們的果子就可以認出他們來。荊棘上豈能摘葡萄呢?蒺藜裡豈能摘無花果呢? 17 這樣,凡好樹都結好果子,唯獨壞樹結壞果子。 18 好樹不能結壞果子,壞樹不能結好果子。 19 凡不結好果子的樹就砍下來,丟在火裡。 20 所以,憑著他們的果子就可以認出他們來。 21 凡稱呼我『主啊,主啊』的人不能都進天國,唯獨遵行我天父旨意的人才能進去。 22 當那日,必有許多人對我說:『主啊,主啊,我們不是奉你的名傳道,奉你的名趕鬼,奉你的名行許多異能嗎?』 23 我就明明地告訴他們說:『我從來不認識你們。你們這些作惡的人,離開我去吧!』
最近不僅是天主教的神父和聖職人員多有性醜聞,基督教的牧者也不遑多讓。更可怕的是在這些領袖做了惡事之後,其他的領袖知道後不但不嚴懲,反而包庇掩蓋,要求當事人原諒了事。讓受害者承受諸多方面的壓力和痛苦,得不到公義的對待。而那些戴著羊面具的狼就繼續吞噬可憐,不受保護的羊。
耶穌在這裡警告我們,不是每一個牧者或教師都是屬祂的人。有一位性侵教友長達數年的牧者,甚至在受訪時宣稱終止教內性騷擾是他的第一要務。這些牧者或教師都是大聲奉主名傳道,有的還奉主名趕鬼,行異能,表現得很有能力,彷彿是神重用的僕人,使人不敢不聽他的話。但是他們暗中所行的,主都知道。保羅說像這樣的人暗中所行的,提起來也是可恥的(弗5:12)。
Setting Up Your Next Generation for Success
2019-02-20 in GAMEtime Sharing /by meilingHi GAMErs,
Today’s passage is 1 Kings 2:1-12. Let’s go!
1 Kings 2:2-3 (NIV)
2 “I am about to go the way of all the earth,” he said. “So be strong, show yourself a man,
3 and observe what the LORD your God requires: Walk in his ways, and keep his decrees and commands, his laws and requirements, as written in the Law of Moses, so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you go,
On verses 1-3: Here David is on his deathbed. David’s last words to King Solomon his son are “be courageous, be a man, and obey God’s commands.” (v2-3) After all the experiences David had accumulated over his lifetime — his unprecedented victories, his heartbreaking losses, and all the lessons he learned from both his successes and his mistakes — the most important lesson David could tell Solomon is: trust and obey God. “Do this,” David says, “so that you may prosper in all you do and wherever you go” (v3).
How Do You Know Who Your True Friends Are
2019-02-19 in GAMEtime Sharing /by meilingHi GAMErs,
Today’s passage is 1 Kings 1:41-53. How Do You Know Who Your True Friends Are (Plus, Don’t Make Promises You Can’t Keep) Let’s go!
On verses 41-49: Having heard that King David has officially made Solomon king instead of Adonijah, all of Adonijah’s guests — who were supposedly Adonijah’s closest friends and supporters — disperse and flee from Adonijah.
What can we learn from this? It’s in the tough times when you can especially tell who your real friends are. When things are going well for you, everyone is happy to be your friend. But it’s in the tough times that you tend to notice which of your friends are truly loyal and truly love you for you, and which friends are friendly toward you for a more selfish reason.
進窄門
2019-02-19 in 每日親近神 /by meiling馬太福音7: 13-14_進窄門
13 「你們要進窄門。因為通往滅亡的門是寬的,路是大的,進去的人也多; 14 通往生命的門是窄的,路是小的,找到的人也少。」
有一次有位名廚去紐約某間餐館作秀,我兒子也去拿到一個位置。他非常高興,因為好多人都訂不到位。那個位置價錢不菲,可惜他後來很失望,因為名廚做出來的東西不如宣傳的好吃,也不特別。剛剛過完年,可能有不少人過年時在外面的餐廳吃飯。當你選擇餐廳時,你會選擇一間很少人去,或是很多人去的餐廳? 大多數人有一種看法,只要排長龍的,就認定那間一定不錯。我們總是喜歡往人多的地方擠,往往擠進去了,卻又覺得早知如此就不花那個時間去擠去排隊去等了。
過年過節時,百貨公司的門特別寬,有各樣的減價向人招手。但是結局往往也令人失望,一來可能選到幾樣減價品,可是付錢時排隊好長;二來是看來看去都沒有真正需要的,浪費時間;三呢,一不小心被價錢所騙,買了一大堆不需要的東西回家變垃圾。所以有很多人去的地方,並不表示他們的選擇也必須是你的選擇。因為我們要選擇的是通往生命的門。
天主教和東正教也有永生的生命嗎?

2019-02-19 in 每日親近神 /by meiling馬太福音7: 12_EQ金律
12 所以,無論何事,你們願意人怎樣待你們,你們也要怎樣待人,因為這就是律法和先知的道理。
以前我們都覺得智商IQ很重要,所以很注重知識的灌輸和學習,但是後來發現教育程度高的人不一定會成功,因為他的人際關係不好,所以人家不喜歡和他合作,處處碰壁。有這個發現以後,就有人開始提倡EQ,也就是情緒指數,人際關係。而耶穌的這句教導便是EQ的金律。
主耶穌把祂的教導從理論拉向實際的操作,人和人的關係,第一不要論斷,第二就是你們願意人怎樣待你們,你們也要怎樣待人。假如在生活中你能做到這兩方面,那麼我相信你必是一個很受人歡迎的人。
You Got the King on Your Side
2019-02-18 in GAMEtime Sharing /by meilingHi GAMErs,
Today’s passage is 1 Kings 1:28-40. Let’s go!
1 Kings 1:28-31 (NIV)
28 Then King David said, “Call in Bathsheba.” So she came into the king’s presence and stood before him.
29 The king then took an oath: “As surely as the LORD lives, who has delivered me out of every trouble,
30 I will surely carry out today what I swore to you by the LORD, the God of Israel: Solomon your son shall be king after me, and he will sit on my throne in my place.”
31 Then Bathsheba bowed low with her face to the ground and, kneeling before the king, said, “May my lord King David live forever!”
