To The Father 来到父面前
Ephesians 2:17-18 He came and preached peace to you who were far away and peace to those who were near. For through Him we both have access to the Father by one Spirit.
以弗所书 2:17-18 并且来传和平的福音给你们远处的人,也给那近处的人。因为我们两下藉着祂被一个圣灵所感,得以进入父面前。
Through Jesus, you have access to the Father. You can come boldly to the throne of the Father in times of your need at all times (Hebrews 4:16). You are reconciled back to the Father. You can simply cry out ‘Abba Father!’ (Romans 8:15) and He attends to you. Jesus preached peace to you. That is, you are to be assured that you are at peace with God. God is not angry with you. God is not far away from you. Indeed, He is at peace with you. He loves you. He is near you. When you call to Him, He will answer you (Jeremiah 33:3). When you ask, He gives; When you seek, you find; When you knock on the door, the door will be opened for you (Matthew 7:7). Between you and God is peace, is love and is a relationship. Enjoy getting near Him and you will realize that as you draw to Him, He will surely draw near to you.
藉着耶稣,你得以来到父面前。你可以坦然无惧的来到祂的施恩宝座前,作随时的帮助(希伯来书4:16)。你已经与祂和好,你可以呼叫‘阿爸父’(罗马书8:15),祂时刻与你同在。耶稣向你传了和平的福音。那就是,你可以很肯定你已经与父和好了,祂不再怀怒于你。祂不是离你很遥远的神;祂却是与你同在;祂爱你,祂要与你亲近。当你求求告祂,祂就应允你(耶利米书33:3)。当你祈求,祂就给你;寻找,你就寻见;叩门,祂就给你开门(马太福音7:7)。神与你之间是和好的,是一份爱的关系。你只需要单单享受与祂亲近,当你亲近祂,祂必定亲近你。
