双语灵修（葛培理牧师）：9月13日 圣灵全能

圣灵全能

愿主耶稣基督的恩惠，神的慈爱，圣灵的感动，常与你们众人同在。

哥林多后书13:14

圣灵在每一方面都与圣子和圣父等同。圣经教导我们，圣灵与圣父同等；也与圣子同等。圣经还说，圣灵是有位格的。祂永远不能被称为“它”。祂不仅是一位中介，也不仅是一种影响力，祂是一位大能者，是神的圣灵。

圣经告诉我们，祂无所不能，这意味着祂拥有一切能力。

圣经告诉我们，祂无所不在​​。这意味着祂同时在任何地方。

圣经告诉我们，祂无所不知。这意味着祂拥有一切知识，祂知道我们所做的一切——祂看顾着我们。“祂看顾麻雀”，若圣灵看顾麻雀，祂更是时时刻刻看顾着我们。

祂看到我们内心的想法和意念，祂深入我们的心思，探究我们的想法，洞察我们灵魂的意图，祂知道我们的一切，因祂无所不知。圣经说，我们所做的每一件事，祂都记在册子上，有一天，这些记录将在神的大审判中被拿出来作为证据。

圣经教导我们，圣灵是永恒的、圣洁的。新约中，称祂为圣灵一百次——绝对神圣、绝对纯洁、绝对公义。

这对我意味着什么呢？让我和十七世纪英国圣公会的大主教杰里米·泰勒同声说：“一个人如果记得帮助他的保惠师是全能的，就不至于绝望。”

今日祷告：

父啊，求祢的圣灵充满我们，使我们常住在祢的面前；祷告奉耶稣的名，阿们。

OUR OMNIPOTENT HELPER

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ,and the love of God,and the communion of the Holy Ghost,be with you all.2 Corinthians 13:14

God the Holy Spirit is equal with the Son and with the Father in every respect.The Bible teaches that He is co-equal with God the Father and co-equal with God the Son.The Bible also teaches that the Holy Spirit is a Person.He is never to be referred to as“it.”He is not just an agent;He is not just an influence.He is a mighty Person,the Holy Spirit of God.

The Bible tells us that He is omnipotent.That means that He has all power.

The Bible tells us that He is omnipresent.That means that He is everywhere at the same time.

The Bible tells us that He is omniscient.That means that He has all knowledge.He knows everything that we do-He watches us.“His eye is on the sparrow,”and if God the Spirit is watching the sparrow,how much more He is watching us every moment.

He sees the thoughts and intents of our hearts.He delves into our minds,into the things we think,into the intents of our souls.He knows all about us.He knows everything.The Bible says that everything we do He writes down in a book,and someday it shall be brought out as evidence at the great Judgment of God.

The Bible teaches that the Holy Spirit is eternal.The Bible tells us that He is holy.He is referred to in the New Testament alone one hundred times as the Holy Spirit-absolute holiness,absolute purity,absolute righteousness.

What should this mean to me?With the seventeenth century Anglican bishop Jeremy Taylor,I can say,“It is impossible for that man to despair who remembers that his Helper is omnipotent.”

Pray for the Day:

Father,fill us with Your Holy Spirit,that we will dwell always in Your presence;in Jesus’Name,Amen.
