经文:约翰福音18:28-40
默想小帮手:
衙门(28节):罗马巡抚为了执行公务,在耶路撒冷的临时官邸。
他们自己......染了污秽(28节):按照犹太人的规矩,若进到外邦人的家,就会让自己在礼仪上不洁净。
我们没有杀人的权柄(31节):当时犹太人在罗马帝国的统治下,所以权力受限,公会并无执行死刑的权柄。
18: 28-32耶稣站在彼拉多面前
耶稣的死是成就神的话语。因着犹太人的控告,耶稣站在罗马巡抚彼拉多面前。犹太人要求彼拉多判耶稣死刑,耶稣至终被钉十字架而死。约翰记载说,这应验了耶稣指着自己将要怎样死去而说的话(32节)。这句话是耶稣对自己所作的预言(约12:32-33)。因为父与子原为一(约10:30),耶稣的话语成就,就等于神的话语成就。耶稣虽被罗马的政治力量和犹太人的诡计杀害,但这是在神的旨意里成就,也是神话语的成就。
18:33-40不属这世界的王
耶稣并非世界之王,而是神国度的王。从彼拉多的审问内容可知,犹太人起诉耶稣的罪名为祂自称犹太人的王。彼拉多可能以为耶稣是反抗罗马的政治领袖,便问耶稣是否为犹太人的王。然而耶稣所说「我的国」,并非众人所期待的政治王国,而是真理的国度。凡属于真理的人,都能成为该国度的百姓。彼拉多立即明白,耶稣不是图谋政治王国的人。耶稣被钉十字架,为要建立真理的国度;所有接受此事实的人,都能成为神国的百姓。

Scripture:
John 18:28-40
Meditation
Helper:
Two-Faced
Religion (18:28–32)
Following
the questioning by the high priest, Jesus is taken to the palace of Pontius
Pilate, who is forced to come out to meet the Jews who refuse to enter his
palace out of fear of becoming ceremonially unclean. Here we are given a prime
example of religious hypocrisy: these men take careful measures to preserve
their own religious piety while at the same time demanding the murder of an
innocent man! As believers, we must not let ourselves be satisfied with only an
outward appearance of holiness, but always strive for pure, authentic faith.
Let us look to Jesus, the author and prefect of our faith, to guard us and
purify us from all kinds of religious hypocrisy.
Pilate
and the One True King (18:33-40)
Because
the Sanhedrin lacks the authority to sentence someone to death, the crowd turns
to the Roman governing powers to carry out their evil plans. They accuse Jesus
of claiming kingship, thereby framing Him with treason against the Roman state.
As governor, Pilate wants answers, but Jesus cryptically responds by saying
that His kingdom is not of this world. Though Pilate does not understand, Jesus
has declared His true identity: He is not a mere rival to Caesar; He is the one
true King who rules the cosmos. Pilate walks away confused, while the crowd
continues to demand Jesus’ execution. The world may not accept who Jesus is,
but the truth remains unchanged: Jesus is the King of kings and the Lord of
lords.

《March《Prayer Requests》Raised our hands as we called on God
together as one!
1.Pray for
Malaysia:
Proverbs 21: 1 In the Lord’s hand
the king’s heart is a stream of water, that he channels toward all who
please him.1 Timothy 2:1I urge, then, first of all,
that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made for all
people— 2 for kings and all those in
authority, that we may live peaceful and quiet lives in all
godliness and holiness. 3 This is good, and
pleases God our Savior,
-Pray for Malaysia: Heavenly Father, we declare
Lord Jesus have the absolute legal sovereignty over Malaysia! Malaysia is
accelerating towards the will of God for her!
Malaysia is forever one with Jesus Christ! Anyone who stands in the way
or trying to separate Lord Jesus’s dominion over Malaysia will surely fall by
the wayside!
-Pray for the
political situation: Father God, the one who crowns and dethrones Kings, the
Kingmaker! We beseech God to intervene into Malaysia’s political scene, raise
up righteous Daniels to establish the country’s prayer altars, placing God
fearing workers in the various strategic departments, to realign Malaysian
government laws with God’s decree, so when the day of judgement comes, this
country will be seated at the right hand side of God who blesses His flock.
-Pray against acts of injustice towards
society: Lord, you are the head of Malaysia, doing great things, we come in
your mighty name against the acts of terrorism, human trafficking, drug
smuggling and racial tension in the land, we declare all the above social
monstrosities to be totally uprooted. We declared in the name of the Lord, the
precious blood of Jesus to cover over the lands of Malaysia, cleansing away the
tainted innocence blood spilled by racial conflicts, manifest your
righteousness and just so that the people will have revered fear of God,
resulting in a peaceful and harmonious atmosphere.
-Pray for the church: Together with God to
awaken a new generation of worship team. The eastern islands will be the
first of the new generation of worship teams, leading the worship team from the
wilderness of Kedar (Arab) and Shiraz
(Jordan &Palestine), when they give praise in unison to Jehovah: “The Lord will
march out like a champion, like a warrior he will stir up his zeal; with a
shout he will raise the battle cry and will triumph over his enemies.”
Isaiah 42:13, bestowing the churches the vigour of a heavenly life, focusing
solely on God, being one with God, to be filled by the Holy Spirit,
establishing the prayer altar together. Raising up many more intercessor brides
to watch and pray, dynamically impacting the government and society at large,
becoming a blessing to the country, region and ethnic group. Continuingly
changing the spiritual atmosphere over Malaysia, making Malaysia a country that
is a country for Jesus, ushering and fulfilling His will.
-We ask God to grant us a repentance spirit, so
that more souls can be saved, putting their trust in Jesus to walk down the
path of an eternal life!
2. For the revival and destiny of the Chinese,
we declare in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ:
1 Confess, Repent, and Cleansing:
Everyone will be getting close to God and facing God deeper in the inner room.
Truly deal with oneself in a real way to enter into deep confession, repentance
and cleansing. For the nation of China, family, school, church, market,
business, hospital and all levels of society, the blood of Jesus will wash away
and forgive all sins! (1 John 1: 9)
-Salvation and Healing: The
blood of the Lord Jesus and the power of the Holy Spirit will destroy the
plagues of the night, the poisonous disease that kills people at noonday, and
any artificial biochemical virus. Those who are anxious will receive peace by
the punishment Jesus took for us. The sick will be healed by Jesus’
stripes. (Isaiah 53: 5)
-Prayer of Unity: By
Chinese’s corporate fast, weeping, and mourning, rent our hearts to cry out for
God’s grace and mercy, and turn back to God with one heart. The prayers of the
people became one voice of unity reaching the throne of God to transform Malaysia, China,
Taiwan, Hong Kong, and Macau into the godly cities and nations that please
God! (Joel 2: 12-13)
-Fulfilling the Destiny of Chinese: The
powerful love and redemption of the Lord Jesus remove the fear, shame, and
little faith of the Chinese, so that the Chinese can boldly followed Jesus’
footsteps, and fulfilled the destiny of the Chinese- “Let my people go
and serve me.” (Ex. 8: 1) Help the Chinese church enter the
mission of the last-day gospel army, let the wind of the harvest blow on the
threshing fields of all nations, and draw millions of people to return to the
kingdom of God.
-Now, we are entering this
historical moment, the Chinese family is face to face with the fear of death,
and the bride of Christ is having a face to face encounter with the end
time forces. The enemy knows its time is running out, so its ferocity is
ever increasing. However, in the end the Son of God appears
to destroy the works of the devil. (1 John 3: 8) Chinese people
around the world must rise to watch and pray, not only to overcome this plague
battle, but also to enter into the same destiny given to the Chinese by God
since the creation of the world, to spread the gospel to all nations all the
way to Jerusalem, and to welcome the returning of the glorious King.
Pray for “New Coronavirus” Outbreaks In Various
Countries
-Jehovah Is Good: Father God, please
show Your lovingkindness and mercy to every virus-infected country even they
are not yet aligned with You. We declare that “Jehovah is good, and His love
endures forever.” Oh, Your love and mercy will be released through the voice of
Your people to stand in the gap, so that other countries will not suffer the
attempt of the enemy at this moment to steal, kill, or destroy it. Father!
Please release the bums of Gilead for them to have a miraculous healing and
recovery. (1 Chron. 16:34 , Jer. 8:22)
-Restore The Glory of The Land of China:
O Lord, You are the God of the Chinese, and the descendants of the Yellow
Emperor. Father God! We are clay, and You are the potter. We are the work of
Your hand. Do not be angry without measure. Lord, do not remember our sins
forever. Look on us, we are all Your people. We and our nation have offended
You. We ask for Your mercy, forgive us, heal us, and heal this contaminated
land of China. We pray that You can restore the glory and beauty of the land of
China. China will be raised to become a nation that blesses the nations. The
Chinese will be sent to every corner of the world to preach the gospel of the
kingdom of heaven and honor Your name. Although China is weeping throughout the
night, joy comes in the morning, Behold! The King of Glory is coming! (Isaiah
64: 8-9)
