QT 03/08/2025 Sun. Ezekiel 13. God Will Deliver His People
READ http://www.esv.org/eze13

Scripture: Ezekiel 13:21–23 (ESV)
"Your veils also I will tear off and deliver my people out of your hand, and they shall be no more in your hand as prey, and you shall know that I am the LORD. Because you have disheartened the righteous falsely, although I have not grieved him, and you have encouraged the wicked, that he should not turn from his evil way to save his life, therefore you shall no more see false visions nor practice divination. I will deliver my people out of your hand. And you shall know that I am the LORD."

Reflection:
In this passage, God confronts false prophets—specifically, those who prophesied peace when there was none, and comforted the wicked while oppressing the righteous. These were not innocent mistakes; they were willful lies that led people away from repentance and truth.

But here’s the hope: God intervenes to rescue His people. He promises to tear off the veils—the symbols of deception—and deliver His people from the grip of spiritual manipulation. The false voices will be silenced. The confusion will be cleared. And in the end, both the deceivers and the delivered will know who truly reigns: “You shall know that I am the LORD.”

Application:
We live in a world full of noise—half-truths, spiritual counterfeits, and misleading comfort. But God still speaks. His Word cuts through the fog, delivering the weary, correcting the wayward, and anchoring the faithful.

As followers of Christ, we are not left prey to deception. Through the truth of His Word and the presence of His Spirit, He delivers us from lies that dishearten the righteous and excuse sin.

Let this be a call to discernment. Let it be a reminder that God's justice does not ignore false teaching. And above all, let it be a comfort: God fights for His people—and when He does, there is no mistaking who He is.

Prayer:
Lord, open our eyes to see Your truth clearly. Deliver us from the lies that discourage righteousness and comfort sin. Silence every voice that twists Your Word, and let Your Spirit lead us in truth. Thank You that You fight for us, and that in You we find our deliverance. We proclaim today: You are the Lord. In Jesus’ name. Amen.

经文 : 《以西结书》13:21-23
21 我必扯下你们的头巾,救我的子民脱离你们的手,使他们不再被你们的手猎取;你们就知道我是耶和华。22  我没有使义人灰心,你们却用谎言使他们灰心,又坚固恶人的手,使他们不转离恶道而得拯救。23 因此,你们不得再见虚假的异象,也不得再行占卜的事;我要救我的子民脱离你们的手。你们就知道我是耶和华。

反思:
在这段经文中,上帝面对的是假先知,特别是那些在没有和平的时候预言和平,在欺压义人的时候安慰恶人的人。这些都不是无辜的错误;它们是蓄意的谎言,使人们远离悔改和真理。

但希望就在这里: 上帝会出手拯救祂的子民。祂承诺会撕下象征欺骗的面纱,将祂的子民从精神操纵的控制中解救出来。虚假的声音将被压制。混乱将被清除。最终,欺骗者和被拯救者都将知道谁才是真正的统治者: "你们就知道我是耶和华。"

应用:
我们生活在一个充满噪音--半真半假、精神伪装和误导性安慰的世界里。但上帝仍在说话。祂的话语拨开迷雾,拯救疲惫的人,纠正迷途的人,锚定忠诚的人。

作为基督的跟随者,我们不会被欺骗。通过祂话语的真理和祂圣灵的同在,祂将我们从谎言中解救出来,这些谎言让公义的人灰心丧气,为罪恶开脱。

让我们以此为号召,明辨是非。让它提醒我们,上帝的公义不会无视错误的教导。最重要的是,让它成为一种安慰: 神为祂的子民而战--当祂为子民而战的时候,祂是谁是不会错的。

祷告:
主啊,求你开启我们的眼睛,让我们看清你的真理。救我们脱离那些阻碍公义、安慰罪恶的谎言。让所有歪曲您话语的声音安静下来,让您的圣灵引领我们进入真理。感谢您为我们而战,在您里面我们找到了解脱。我们今天宣告你是主。奉耶稣的名。阿门。
