QT 12/06/2026 Fri Acts 26 Standing Firm in God’s Plan
READ http://www.esv.org/acts26
Imagine standing before kings, accused and chained… yet instead of defending yourself, you boldly proclaim Jesus. What gave Paul that kind of courage? In Acts 26, we discover the power of a life sustained by God and centered on the risen Christ. Let’s dive in.
Scripture: Acts 26:22–23 (ESV)
“To this day I have had the help that comes from God, and so I stand here testifying both to small and great, saying nothing but what the prophets and Moses said would come to pass: that the Christ must suffer and that, by being the first to rise from the dead, he would proclaim light both to our people and to the Gentiles.”
Devotional Thought:
Paul stands boldly before King Agrippa, not relying on his own wisdom, eloquence, or strength, but on the help that comes from God. His defense is rooted in Scripture, demonstrating that the gospel is not a new or man-made idea—it is the fulfillment of God’s promises from Moses and the prophets.
Notice the confidence and clarity of Paul’s testimony: he doesn’t exaggerate, manipulate, or fear the “small” or “great” audiences. His mission is clear—Christ’s suffering, resurrection, and the light brought to all peoples, Jew and Gentile alike. This reminds us that our calling is not to seek applause or approval, but to faithfully testify to God’s truth wherever we are, knowing He empowers us.
Reflection Questions:
(a) Do I rely on God’s help when sharing my faith, or do I depend on my own words and abilities?
(b) Am I confident in speaking God’s truth, even when it challenges the people around me?
(c) How can I point others to the “light” of Christ in my everyday life?
Application
This week, choose one situation—at work, school, or home—where you can speak or act in a way that reflects the truth of Christ’s resurrection. Trust that God will give the help you need, just as He did for Paul.
Prayer
Lord, thank You for equipping me with Your Spirit to stand firm in truth. Help me to speak boldly and faithfully, pointing others to the hope of Christ’s suffering, resurrection, and salvation. May my life and words reflect Your promises, bringing light to those who are lost. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
QT 12/06/2026 星期五. 使徒行传 26在神的计划中站立得稳
阅读 http://m.bbintl.org/bible/ncv/act/26/
试想，你站在君王面前，身陷指控、身陷囹圄……然而，你没有为自己辩护，反而大胆地宣扬耶稣。是什么给了保罗这样的勇气？在《使徒行传》26章中，我们发现了由神维系、以复活的基督为中心的生活所蕴含的力量。让我们深入探讨。
经文：《使徒行传》26:22–23
“22 然而，我得到 神的帮助，直到今日还是站得稳，向尊卑老幼作见证，我所讲的都是众先知和摩西所论的将来必成的事，23 就是基督必须受难，并且从死人中首先复活，把光明的信息传报给这人民和外族人。”
人作见证，所讲的无非是先知和摩西所预言必将发生的事：就是基督必须受苦，并且作为从死里复活的首位，他要向我们本族的人和外邦人传扬光。
灵修思考：
保罗在亚基帕王面前站立得如此刚强，并非倚靠自己的智慧、口才或力量，而是倚靠来自神的帮助。他的辩护根植于圣经，表明福音并非什么新奇或人为的构想——它是神借着摩西和先知所应许之事的应验。
请留意保罗见证中的自信与清晰：他既不夸大其词，也不耍弄花招，更不因听众是“小”群体还是“大”群体而畏缩。他的使命明确——基督的受难、复活，以及带给万民（无论犹太人还是外邦人）的光。这提醒我们，我们的呼召不是为了寻求掌声或认可，而是无论身在何处，都要凭着对神的信实见证真理，深知祂必赐给我们力量。
反思问题：
(a) 在分享信仰时，我是依靠神的帮助，还是依赖自己的言语和能力？
(b) 即使神的真理会挑战周围的人，我是否仍能自信地传讲它？
(c) 在日常生活中，我该如何引导他人认识基督的“光”？
实践应用
本周，请选择一个场合——无论是工作、学校还是家庭——通过言语或行动来彰显基督复活的真理。相信神会赐给你所需的帮助，正如祂帮助保罗一样。
祷告
主啊，感谢祢赐下圣灵装备我，使我能在真理中站立得稳。求祢帮助我勇敢且忠实地传讲，引导他人认识基督受苦、复活与救赎所带来的盼望。愿我的生活与言语彰显祢的应许，为迷失的人带来光明。奉耶稣的名祷告。阿们。
