各位弟兄姊妹平安，
我們今天來到了《路加福音》第十一章，一開始就是我們耳熟能詳的主禱文。這段經文在《路加福音》和《馬太福音》裡面都有記載，其中《馬太福音》的版本更為完整一些，但《路加福音》的版本同樣清楚表達了核心。
主禱文總共只有短短七句話，卻是一個極其奇妙和完整的禱告。當你仔細去思想這個禱文，你會發現它將人生中所有禱告的核心元素，都包含在裡面。
今天，我們就簡單來看主禱文中每一句話的含義，幫助大家在日後可以更深去反思和禱告時使用。
1️.「我們在天上的父，」我們在天上的父
這一句話表明了我們跟上帝的關係。祂待我們如兒女，我們可以愛祂如父親。
當我們理解這一個關係的時候，我們就脫離了所有錯誤宗教裡面可能所產生的誤區。
無神論者說，我們只是偶然的巧合，沒有意義。相信輪迴的人說，你只是你前世所積的功德或者是你所經歷的失敗。多神論者說，你跟這些神沒有關係，只能敬鬼神而遠之。
只有基督教把我們跟上帝的關係擺在最正確、最親密的位置：祂是愛我們的天父。你跟神不需要感到陌生，你跟神不用再感到有距離，祂是你的父親。可能，我們肉身的父親不完美，可能缺席，可能傷害你。但這一位天上的父，祂愛你，他也不放棄你，不遠離你。
2. 「願人都尊你的名為聖。願你的國降臨。願你的旨意行在地上，如同行在天上。」我們所看見的人類歷史之中，充滿了戰爭、充滿了彼此廝殺、充滿了傷害。我們用來形容一個最大、最慘的災區的詞就是「War zone」——戰區。所以，真正造成最大災害的，從來都不是天災，而是人禍。其實人類的問題，都是我們自己搞出來的。
當「願人都尊你的名為聖，願你的國降臨，願你的旨意行在地上如同行在天上」這句話實現出來的時候，你會發現，地上就有了成為美好國度的可能性。
但是，如果人堅持要掌權，堅持用自己的方式，這件事情就永遠不會實現。
所以當我們宣告的時候，我們看見的是：願上帝的旨意成就，因為祂的確是美善的。
3. 「我們日用的飲食，天天賜給我們。」這句話表明了一件很重要的事情——我們可以將我們肉身的需求帶到祂面前來求。我們需要的飲食、生活中所需的一切，都可以向祂祈求。祂會天天賜給我們，按著我們所求、所想、所需要的，上帝會按照祂的旨意來供應我們。我們沒有說要把「一生的飲食」一次全部賜給我們，上帝給的是「每天正好夠用的」。不會太多，也不會太少。是剛剛好的恩典。
4 「赦免我們的罪，因為我們也赦免凡虧欠我們的人。」這裡的關鍵在於「我們也赦免凡虧欠我們的人」。
當我們向神尋求赦免時，我們也要同時問自己：我們是否有赦免那些冒犯、虧欠我們的人？如果我們認為自己理當被赦免，卻不願意赦免別人，那麼我們向神求的赦免也是虛假的，因為我們的心中並沒有真正的寬恕他人。
上帝是真正為我們的罪付上了代價，祂無條件赦免了我們，因此，我們也當用同樣的心赦免他人。這樣的赦免，不只是饒恕別人，也是帶給我們內心平安與安慰的禱告。
5 「不叫我們遇見試探。」求神保守我們不陷入誘惑和罪中，賜力量勝過試探。這一句話，是關於我們一生中心理上會面對的各樣挑戰。
無論是金錢的誘惑、情欲的誘惑，或者是名聲、地位、權力上的誘惑，這一切都可能成為我們生活中的試探。就如同耶穌在曠野中被魔鬼試探四十天之久，祂成功地勝過了這一切的誘惑。今天，當我們向祂禱告時，我們相信祂同樣可以幫助我們去勝過試探，保守我們心中的平安與安穩。
當我們把上帝放在生命中的首位，我們面對試探時，就會有從祂而來的力量去抵擋，不被誘惑所動搖。
6 「救我們脫離凶惡。」英文裡翻譯為「Deliver us from the evil one」，意思是拯救我們脫離那惡者的手。
我們都知道，在人生當中，我們必然會受到攻擊，因為惡者不會善罷甘休。他不會因為我們已經得救、屬於神，就從此遠離不來干擾。正如魔鬼在試探耶穌之後，經文說他是暫時離開，尋找更好的時機再來攻擊祂。
這也是每一個基督徒必須面對的現實——惡者總是在伺機而動，想要拉我們跌倒，想要破壞我們與神之間的關係。
所以我們禱告求神救我們脫離兇惡之後，心裡不能是空空的狀態。我們必須被聖靈充滿，被上帝的話語充滿。當我們被真理充滿，惡者才沒有立足之地，才能真正遠離我們。
英文有句話：
An apple a day keeping the doctor away
一天一蘋果，醫生遠離我
我換一句：Read bible every day, keeping the evil away
每天都讀經，惡者遠離我
7. 「因為國度，權柄，榮耀全是你的，直到永遠，阿門。」
這句話讓我們回到上帝面前，再一次確立：祂是天地的主，祂是我們生命的主宰，祂掌管宇宙萬有，一切都是屬於祂的，直到永遠。
這同時也是一個宣告：上帝不會輸，上帝不會被打敗，祂不會離開我們，祂的主權沒有終止的一天。
因此，我們可以坦然無懼地把我們人生所有的一切—— 我們的家庭、事業、健康、未來—— 全然交在祂手中， 因為國度、權柄、榮耀，全都屬於祂，而祂，是愛我們、看顧我們的天父。
這七句話短短幾十字，卻是耶穌親自教導的禱告模型，涵蓋了敬拜、順服、依靠、認罪、饒恕、保守和拯救。當你明白這禱文背後的深意時，你會發現，每次禱告時用心去默想這幾句話，都是重新對齊我們與神的關係，也是調整我們人生優先次序的重要時刻。
讓我們學習不只是背誦主禱文，而是每一次都用心去禱告這七句話，讓這成為我們信仰生活中最寶貴的禱告榜樣。感謝各位的聆聽，我們明天繼續分享十一章的其他故事。願上帝祝福各位。
Peace to all brothers and sisters,Today we have come to the Gospel of Luke, chapter 11. At the beginning of this chapter is the Lord’s Prayer, which we are all very familiar with. This passage is recorded both in the Gospel of Luke and in the Gospel of Matthew. The version in Matthew is a bit more complete, but the version in Luke just as clearly expresses the core.
The Lord’s Prayer has only seven short lines, yet it is an incredibly wonderful and complete prayer. When you carefully think about this prayer, you will find that it contains all the core elements of prayer that we need for life.
Today, we will briefly go through each line of the Lord’s Prayer and its meaning, to help everyone reflect more deeply and use it in your prayers in the future.
1️. "Our Father in heaven,"Our Father in heaven —This line shows the relationship between us and God. He treats us as His children, and we can love Him as a father.When we understand this relationship, we break away from all the misunderstandings that may arise from other religions.Atheists say we are just a coincidence, with no meaning.Those who believe in reincarnation say you are just the result of your past life’s merits or failures.Polytheists say you have no relationship with those gods and that you should stay away from them.Only Christianity places the relationship between us and God in the most correct and intimate place: He is our loving heavenly Father.You do not need to feel distant from God; you do not need to feel like a stranger to Him — He is your Father.Maybe your earthly father is not perfect, maybe he was absent, maybe he hurt you. But this heavenly Father loves you, will not give up on you, and will not leave you.
"Hallowed be your name. Your kingdom come. Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven."
In human history, what we see is full of wars, killing, and harm.
The word we use to describe the most severe disaster area is "war zone."
So the biggest disasters have never been natural disasters but man-made disasters. In fact, human problems are all caused by ourselves.
When the prayer "Hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done on earth as it is in heaven" is realized, you will see that the earth has the possibility of becoming a beautiful kingdom.
But if people insist on taking control and insist on doing things their own way, then this will never happen.
So when we declare this, we see: may God’s will be done, because He is indeed good.
"Give us each day our daily bread."
This sentence expresses something very important — that we can bring our physical needs before Him and ask.
All that we need for food and in daily life, we can ask from Him. He will give to us daily, according to what we ask, think, and need. God will supply according to His will. We are not asking Him to give us "a lifetime of provision" all at once. God gives us "just enough for today."
Not too much, not too little — it is just the right grace.
"Forgive us our sins, for we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us."
The key here is: "for we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us."
When we seek forgiveness from God, we also need to ask ourselves: have we forgiven those who have offended or wronged us?
If we think we deserve forgiveness but are unwilling to forgive others, then the forgiveness we ask from God is false, because in our hearts we have not truly forgiven.
God has paid the price for our sins; He has forgiven us unconditionally. Therefore, we should also forgive others with the same heart.
This kind of forgiveness is not just letting go of others, but it also brings peace and comfort to our own hearts.
"And lead us not into temptation."
We ask God to protect us from falling into temptation and sin and to give us strength to overcome temptation.
This sentence is about the various challenges we face in life.
Whether it is the temptation of money, lust, fame, status, or power — all of these can become temptations in our daily lives.
Just as Jesus was tempted by the devil for forty days in the wilderness, and He overcame all these temptations,
today, when we pray to Him, we believe He can also help us overcome temptations and keep our hearts at peace and secure.
When we place God first in our lives, we will have strength from Him to resist temptation and not be shaken.
"But deliver us from evil."
In English, it is translated as "Deliver us from the evil one," meaning to save us from the hand of the evil one.
We all know that in life, we will inevitably face attacks, because the evil one will not give up easily.
He will not stop bothering us just because we have been saved and belong to God.
Just like after the devil tempted Jesus, the Scripture says he left temporarily, looking for a better time to attack Him again.
This is also a reality that every Christian must face — the evil one is always looking for opportunities to pull us down and damage our relationship with God.
So after we pray for God to deliver us from evil, we cannot leave our hearts empty.
We must be filled with the Holy Spirit and with God’s Word.
When we are filled with truth, the evil one will have no place and will truly stay away from us.
There’s a saying in English: "An apple a day keeps the doctor away."
I will change it a little: "Read the Bible every day, keeps the evil away."
"For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours, forever. Amen."
This sentence brings us back before God and once again affirms:
He is the Lord of heaven and earth,
He is the Lord of our lives,
He rules over all things in the universe,
Everything belongs to Him, forever.
This is also a declaration:
God will not lose,
God will not be defeated,
He will not leave us,
His sovereignty has no end.
Therefore, we can confidently entrust everything in our lives — our families, careers, health, and future — completely into His hands.
For the kingdom, the power, and the glory all belong to Him.
And He is our loving heavenly Father who cares for us.
These seven short lines, just a few dozen words, are the prayer model that Jesus Himself taught.They cover worship, submission, dependence, confession, forgiveness, protection, and deliverance.
When you understand the deeper meaning behind this prayer, you will realize that every time you pray and meditate on these words with your heart, it realigns your relationship with God and helps you adjust your life’s priorities.
Let us learn not only to recite the Lord’s Prayer but to pray these seven lines with sincerity every time, making it the most precious prayer model in our lives of faith.
Thank you all for listening.Tomorrow we will continue sharing the other stories in chapter
May God bless you all!
