1:1 基督耶穌的僕人保羅和提摩太寫信給凡住腓立比、在基督耶穌裏的眾聖徒，和諸位監督，諸位執事。 Paul and Timothy, servants of Christ Jesus,To all the saints in Christ Jesus at Philippi, together with the overseers (\f1 1:1 Traditionally|i bishops|d) and deacons:
1:2 願恩惠、平安從 神我們的父並主耶穌基督歸與你們！ Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 1:3 我每逢想念你們，就感謝我的 神； I thank my God every time I remember you. 1:4 每逢為你們眾人祈求的時候，常是歡歡喜喜的祈求。 In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy 1:5 因為從頭一天直到如今，你們是同心合意地興旺福音。 because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now, 1:6 我深信那在你們心裏動了善工的，必成全這工，直到耶穌基督的日子。 being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. 1:7 我為你們眾人有這樣的意念，原是應當的；因你們常在我心裏，無論我是在捆鎖之中，是辯明證實福音的時候，你們都與我一同得恩。 It is right for me to feel this way about all of you, since I have you in my heart; for whether I am in chains or defending and confirming the gospel, all of you share in God's grace with me. 1:8 我體會基督耶穌的心腸，切切地想念你們眾人；這是 神可以給我作見證的。 God can testify how I long for all of you with the affection of Christ Jesus. 1:9 我所禱告的，就是要你們的愛心在知識和各樣見識上多而又多， And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, 1:10 使你們能分別是非〔或譯：喜愛那美好的事〕，作誠實無過的人，直到基督的日子； 0 so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, 1:11 並靠著耶穌基督結滿了仁義的果子，叫榮耀稱讚歸與 神。 filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ--to the glory and praise of God. 1:12 弟兄們，我願意你們知道，我所遭遇的事更是叫福音興旺， Now I want you to know, brothers, that what has happened to me has really served to advance the gospel. 1:13 以致我受的捆鎖在御營全軍和其餘的人中，已經顯明是為基督的緣故。 As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard(\f2 1:13 Or|i whole palace|d) and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ. 1:14 並且那在主裏的弟兄多半因我受的捆鎖就篤信不疑，越發放膽傳 神的道，無所懼怕。 Because of my chains, most of the brothers in the Lord have been encouraged to speak the word of God more courageously and fearlessly. 1:15 有的傳基督是出於嫉妒紛爭，也有的是出於好意。 It is true that some preach Christ out of envy and rivalry, but others out of goodwill. 1:16 這一等是出於愛心，知道我是為辯明福音設立的； The latter do so in love, knowing that I am put here for the defense of the gospel. 1:17 那一等傳基督是出於結黨，並不誠實，意思要加增我捆鎖的苦楚。 The former preach Christ out of selfish ambition, not sincerely, supposing that they can stir up trouble for me while I am in chains. (\f3 1:17 Some late manuscripts have verses 16 and 17 in reverse order.) 1:18 這又何妨呢？或是假意，或是真心，無論怎樣，基督究竟被傳開了。為此，我就歡喜，並且還要歡喜； But what does it matter? The important thing is that in every way, whether from false motives or true, Christ is preached. And because of this I rejoice. Yes, and I will continue to rejoice, 1:19 因為我知道，這事藉著你們的祈禱和耶穌基督之靈的幫助，終必叫我得救。 for I know that through your prayers and the help given by the Spirit of Jesus Christ, what has happened to me will turn out for my deliverance. (\f4 1:19 Or|i salvation|d) 1:20 照著我所切慕、所盼望的，沒有一事叫我羞愧。只要凡事放膽，無論是生是死，總叫基督在我身上照常顯大。 I eagerly expect and hope that I will in no way be ashamed, but will have sufficient courage so that now as always Christ will be exalted in my body, whether by life or by death. 1:21 因我活著就是基督，我死了就有益處。 For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain. 1:22 但我在肉身活著，若成就我工夫的果子，我就不知道該挑選甚麼。 If I am to go on living in the body, this will mean fruitful labor for me. Yet what shall I choose? I do not know! 1:23 我正在兩難之間，情願離世與基督同在，因為這是好得無比的。 I am torn between the two: I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far; 1:24 然而，我在肉身活著，為你們更是要緊的。 but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body. 1:25 我既然這樣深信，就知道仍要住在世間，且與你們眾人同住，使你們在所信的道上又長進又喜樂， Convinced of this, I know that I will remain, and I will continue with all of you for your progress and joy in the faith, 1:26 叫你們在基督耶穌裏的歡樂，因我再到你們那裏去，就越發加增。 so that through my being with you again your joy in Christ Jesus will overflow on account of me. 1:27 只要你們行事為人與基督的福音相稱，叫我或來見你們，或不在你們那裏，可以聽見你們的景況，知道你們同有一個心志，站立得穩，為所信的福音齊心努力。 Whatever happens, conduct yourselves in a manner worthy of the gospel of Christ. Then, whether I come and see you or only hear about you in my absence, I will know that you stand firm in one spirit, contending as one man for the faith of the gospel 1:28 凡事不怕敵人的驚嚇，這是證明他們沉淪，你們得救都是出於 神。 without being frightened in any way by those who oppose you. This is a sign to them that they will be destroyed, but that you will be saved--and that by God. 1:29 因為你們蒙恩，不但得以順服基督，並要為他受苦。 For it has been granted to you on behalf of Christ not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for him, 1:30 你們的爭戰，就與你們在我身上從前所看見、現在所聽見的一樣。 since you are going through the same struggle you saw I had, and now hear that I still have. 本模組中文化由長島基督福音教會的Jack起始。多次經本人修改，2025年11月由AI協助更改加入朗讀功能，2026年加入搜尋「中、英」字皆可，顯示「黃底紅字」歡迎大家使用！！ 荒漠甘泉五合一■ 中文荒漠甘泉（01月05日）
一月五日 「耶和華阿，惟有您能幫助……」歷代志下十四章11節 讓我們提醒神，叫祂負完全的責任。「惟有您能幫助……」。攻擊亞撒的有士兵百萬、戰車三百。亞撒和猶太人要抵擋古實王的大軍似乎是不可能的一回事。沒有聯盟軍隊去援助他；所以，他惟一的盼望是神。或許你也有這般可怕的難處逼你放棄你平時所有的依據，而專一投靠全能的神。 亞撒的信心看見耶和華站在那耀武揚威的謝拉和毫無力量的自己中間。他並沒有錯誤。我們看見古實人果然敗在耶和華和他軍隊面前，所以猶太人只要跟在後面收集掠物就是了。我們的神是萬軍之耶和華，祂能隨時召集援軍來拯救祂的子民。相信祂站在你和你的難處中間，無論甚麼困難都會在祂面前逃跑，如雲在疾風面前被吹散一般。 ─梅爾 富堡壘碎成瓦礫， 正是你無所依恃 除了神以外，一無可靠， 這正是信主之時。 在你我所行這條路口， 信心比眼見更可依仗， 雖然茫茫夜色黑暗， 信是信心能放光亮。 亞伯拉罕信神，對眼見說：「退去！」對自然的定律說：「不要作聲！」對疑懼的心說：「閉口，你這謊言的誘惑者！」他信神。 ─派克約瑟

January 5 "Lord, there is none beside thee to help."(2 Chron. 14:11, R. V.) ＲEMIND God of His entire responsibility. "There is none beside thee to help." The odds against Asa were enormous. There was a million of men in arms against him, besides three hundred chariots. It seemed impossible to hold his own against that vast multitude. There were no allies who would come to his help; his only hope, therefore, was in God. It may be that your difficulties have been allowed to come to so alarming a pitch that you may be compelled to renounce all creature aid, to which in lesser trials you have had recourse, and cast yourself back on your Almighty Friend. Put God between yourself and the foe. To Asa's faith, Jehovah seemed to stand between the might of Zerah and himself, as one who had no strength. Nor was he mistaken. We are told that the Ethiopians were destroyed before the Lord and before His host, as though celestial combatants flung themselves against the foe in Israel's behalf, and put the large host to rout, so that Israel had only to follow up and gather the spoil. Our God is Jehovah of hosts, who can summon unexpected reinforcements at any moment to aid His people. Believe that He is there between you and your difficulty, and what baffles you will flee before Him, as clouds before the gale. ─F. B. Meyer. "When nothing whereon to lean remains, When strongholds crumble to dust; When nothing is sure but that God still reigns, That is just the time to trust. "Tis better to walk by faith than sight, In this path of yours and mine; And the pitch-black night, when there's no outer light Is the time for faith to shine." Abraham believed God, and said to sight, "Stand back!" and to the laws of nature, "Hold your peace!" and to a misgiving heart, "Silence, thou lying tempter!" He believed God. ─Joseph Parker.

一月五日 信心 「只要信。」馬可福音五章36節 這裡有一個極重要的功課，就是當我們單獨在內室裡獻上我們祈求的時候，我們必須全然信靠神的愛和主耶穌的權能。請先問問你自己：對於神的愛，你的心是否滿了極大而又牢靠的信心？如果不是這樣的話，請不要立刻開始禱告。信心是不會自己來的，要安靜的思想：神是真實的。祂在無限量的愛裡已經預備好了，要來給你祝福。請讀一些關於啟示神的能力、信實，和愛心的聖經章節。把這些話引到你自己身上，並且說：「主阿！是的，我要在您和您的大愛裡，用堅固的信心來禱告。」 把「信心」這一個詞句只限制在赦罪和蒙悅納作神的兒女上面，乃是一件錯誤的事。信心所包含的遠超過這些。對於一切神所要為我們作的事上，我們都必須有信心。我們必須相信祂要照著我們每天的需要供給我們。神的偉大和能力是無限量的；基督的恩典也足彀應付我們每天新的需要，所以我們也應當照著每天的需要運用活的信心。 當你進入內室開始禱告之前，請問一問你自己：「我真是相信神是在這裡與我同在麼？也相信主耶穌要幫助我禱告麼？也相信我能夠在這蒙福的時間來和我的神有交通麼？」 主耶穌常常教導祂的門徒，如果要有真實的禱告，信心是絕對不可缺少的！所以祂照樣也要教導我們學這個功課。你要停留在祂的交通中，求祂用祂超然的能力，剛強你的信心。基督要對你我說當初祂對馬大所說過的話：「我不是對你說過，你若信，就必看見神的榮耀麼？」

一月五日 有力量的生命的果效 「我所去的地方，你現在不能跟我去；後來卻要跟我去。」約翰福音十三章36節 說了這話，就對他說：「你跟從我吧。」「跟從我」一語，是三年前耶穌對彼得說的。彼得也很爽快地跟從了祂；那時，因為他的身上還有耶穌的吸力，不需要聖靈的幫助，就可以這麼做。及至否認耶穌的場合，他的心深深地創痛。及至獲得聖靈以後，耶穌又向他說：「跟從我。」這時不像從前那麼關切耶穌的危險。第一次「跟從」，並沒有甚麼神秘，不過是一種表面的追隨；可是此時的追隨，卻是一種內心的追隨，甚至願以身殉。（參約廿一18） 在彼得發誓與否認耶穌兩個時期之間，直到後來，他才不知有己，滿懷謙虛，覺得自己毫不足恃；就在這種絕望之中，他才從復活的主領受賜與。主「向他們吹一口氣，說：『你們受聖靈。』」（約廿21）切莫關心神怎樣改變你們，也莫依賴那些改變，只要仰仗主耶穌基督和祂賜與聖靈，去建立、去創造，就可以了。 我們一切的誓詞和決志，終結是無用的，因為我們沒有力量去實行。只有在我們真真束手無策的時候，才能接受聖靈。「你們受聖靈」，這種接受是被動的。此後在你們的生命中，還有一顆唯一的星光──主耶穌基督。

一月五日 「我眷顧他，為要叫他遵守我的道」創世記十八章19節 神需要一些值得祂信賴的人，祂提到亞伯拉罕時，能說：「我眷顧他，使我所應許亞伯拉罕的話都成就了。」雖然神是可交託的，但祂要我們有決心、信靠且穩定。這也是有信心的真正意思。神一直在找一些人，一些能讓祂全心付出祂所有的愛，給予能力以及託付應許的對象。當神找到這樣的一個人時，祂會為這個人做任何一件事。神的力量強烈到能拉動任何的重擔，為要我們與祂緊緊地繫在一起。然而可惜的是，將我們與神繫在一起的繩索，往往弱得連我們禱告的重量都支持不了。所以神不時地訓練、管教和磨練我們，為得是要使我們在信心的生活中有定力及確據。讓我們來學習這些課程，並且堅定地站穩腳步。 對那些極少數敢於接受考驗的人， 神為他們預備了最好的一切。 為那些得不到最高祝福的人， 神也賜給他們次好的選擇。 然而神啊，求您賜我最高的祝福。 儘管他人可以得到其餘的一切， 那些好處卻對我毫無吸引力， 因為我已得到您至上的祝福。
