【读圣经学英语】庄稼的主

马太福音-Matthew 9章37~38节

9:37 于是对门徒说,庄稼固多,工人却少;
  Then He said to His disciples, The harvest is great, but the workers few;
9:38 所以要祈求庄稼的主,催赶工人收割祂的庄稼。
  Therefore beseech the Lord of the harvest that He would thrust out workers into His harvest.

Enlightenment:

We all need to see a vision of the Lord Jesus as the Lord of the harvest. In verse 38 the Lord told us to beseech the Lord of the harvest that He may thrust out workers into His harvest. Firstly, in His economy, God has a plan to accomplish. Then His economy requires His people to beseech, to pray, for it. In answering their prayer, He will accomplish what they have prayed concerning His plan. Many times when we sense the need for workers, we sound out the call for help. But from now on, whenever you sense the need for workers, you must firstly pray to the Lord of the harvest, saying, “Lord, here is Your harvest. You are the Lord of the harvest. We call on You to thrust out some reapers. Lord, send more reapers into Your harvest.” Praying like this will make a difference. To pray like this means that we have seen a vision that our Christ, the kingly One, the Shepherd, is the Lord of the harvest.

亮光

我们都需要看见主耶稣是庄稼之主的异象。在三十八节主告诉我们,要祈求庄稼的主,催赶工人收割祂的庄稼。首先,神在祂的经纶里,有一个计画要完成;然后,需要祂的子民为此祈求、祷告。祂要答应他们的祷告,成就他们为祂的计画所求的。许多时候我们觉得需要工人,就发出求助的呼声。但从现在起,每当你觉得需要工人,你必须先向庄稼的主祷告说,“主阿,这里有你的庄稼。你是庄稼的主,我们呼求你催赶一些收割的人。主阿,差遣更多的人收割你的庄稼。”这样祷告会不一样。这样祷告的意思是我们看见了异象,我们的基督,君王,牧人,乃是庄稼的主。
