慕安德烈每日靈修 God's Best Secrets by Andrew Murray

耶穌

經文: 「你要給祂取名叫耶穌，因祂要將自己的百姓從罪惡�救出來。」（馬太福音一：21）

因為耶穌也是個人子，因此祂也有個名字，祂的母親，祂的朋友叫祂耶穌，但他們很少想到這名字的意思，絕大多數的基督徒，也極少人明白這名字所包含極寶貴的意義——祂要將祂的百姓從罪惡中拯救出來。

許多人想到祂釘死在十架上，許多人想到祂在天上為我們守望代禱，但我們可曾想到祂在天上每天所渴望的，就是要盡其所能的向我們顯示祂自己，並且渴望每天得到我們的愛與讚美。

基督徒常禱告求上帝將他們從罪惡中拯救出來，卻不知道這工作要怎樣做成。事實上，又真又活的耶穌，要向我們顯現祂自己，藉著祂愛的力量與吸引，我們變得喜愛真理，恨惡罪惡，就是這樣藉著與祂每天親近，才得以脫離罪惡的捆綁。也就是說，我們帶著罪惡的本相，存著誠心來到這位聖潔的上帝面前，這位救主要以祂愛的力量，驅逐我們心中的黑暗與罪惡。就在我們與上帝相交親近時，聖靈就動工在心中，讓我們明白上帝的心意，賜下得勝罪惡的力量。

喔，親愛的弟兄姐妹，每天要殷勤撥時間到主的面前來，你會嚐到與聖潔的上帝在一起的甘甜，並視耶穌慈愛的邀約，為一天最美好的時光；若你能每天按時地與耶穌單獨相處，你會經驗到祂的同在，使你一整天都能行在祂的旨意中，並且愛祂、服事祂，藉著這樣不間斷的溝通，你將學會屬靈生命成長的祕訣。


JESUS

Scripture: "Thou shalt call His Name Jesus, for He shall save His peo¬ple from their sins."—MATT. i. 21

As the Lord Jesus was a person, He had His own individual name. His mother, His disciples, all His friends called Him by this name—Jesus. But they probably thought little of what that name meant. And how little do the majority of Christians know what a treasure is contained in that name—Jesus— "He shall save His people from their sins."
Many think of His death on the cross, they think of His work in heaven as Intercessor, but do they, or do we, realize that He is a living Person in heaven, who thinks of us each day, and longs to reveal Himself ? And He desires us each day to bring Him our love and adoration.
Christians pray to Christ to save them from their sins, but they know very little how the blessed work is done. The living Christ reveals Himself to us, and through the power of His love the love of sin is expelled. It is through personal fellowship with Him that Jesus saves from our sins. I must come as an individ¬ual, with my heart and all the sin that is in it to Jesus as an Al¬mighty personal Saviour, in Whom God's holiness dwells. And as He and I commune together in the expression of mutual love and desire, by the work of His Holy Spirit in my heart, His love will expel and conquer all the sin.
O Christian, learn the blessedness of each day in fellowship with Jesus finding the secret of happiness and holiness. Your heart will long for the hour of prayer as the best hour of the day. As you learn to go apart with Him alone each day, you will ex¬perience His presence with you, enabling you all through the day to love Him, to serve Him, and to walk in His ways. Through this unbroken fellowship you will learn the secret of the power of a truly godly life.
