我们要以行动来传达耶稣的爱，活出神的使命，成为世界的光和盐。
撒但以耶稣的饥饿为由，试图让祂将石头变为食物。我们会发现，魔鬼的试探常是在我们有急需或
有困难之时，就来叫我们离开神，另谋出路。牠要引诱我们与世界妥协，以消解艰难的环境（石
头），使我们的身心得着饱足和舒适（变成食物）。
我们看见耶稣用圣经的话语回应并且得胜：“人活着不是单靠食物，乃是靠神口里所出的一切
话。”
魔鬼熟悉圣经，既然主耶稣靠着神的话得胜，魔鬼就引经据典地对付祂，张口就是「因为经上记着 说」。主耶稣并不与撒但辩论，而是直截了当地向魔鬼宣告「不可试探主你的神」（申6：16）。
撒但向耶稣展示世上的万国与荣华，要求祂俯伏拜他。撒但其实很常利用「万国的荣华」来诱惑人 心，引人追求并事奉神之外的事物，借此来抵挡神、对抗神。然而，主耶稣用天国之王的权柄胜过 了世界之王，斥责牠：「撒但，退去吧」！耶稣向我们显明了一条胜过试探的得胜之路，让一切跟 随祂的人来效法
现代生活充满了追求财富和物质享受的引诱，广告、社交媒体、购物平台不断吸引我们。基督徒要 学会分辨，知道真正的价值在于天国的产业。因此，基督徒的首要使命是与世界的罪恶和试探抗 争，活出圣洁的生活。耶稣在这里以身作则，示范了当我们在面对试探时该如何依靠神的话语。
耶稣回到加利利，开始传道并宣告“天国近了，你们应当悔改。”这是祂公开事工的开始，预示着
教会要活出这使命——宣扬天国的福音，并呼召人归向神。
因此，让我们将传福音看成是我们每一位基督徒的使命，勇敢地面对任何环境。在生活中，我们要
抓住机会，为周围的人带来福音的好消息
。
耶稣呼召了彼得、安得烈、雅各和约翰，邀请他们成为祂的门徒。这不仅是个人的呼召，更是在建 造一个群体。教会使命的核心之一是呼召人进入信仰，形成一个彼此关怀、成长、支持的属灵大家 庭，并且培育信徒，使他们成为‘得人如鱼’的工人。
耶稣不仅传讲天国的道理，也在加利利各地治病赶鬼，施行神迹。这让我们看到神的国度是带来全 面救赎的地方。因此，教会的使命包括医治和关怀，让人经历神的爱。因为我们要行耶稣所行的 事，带下神的医治和怜悯 。

Living out God’s mission
GK611 Morning Devotion

The Morning Devotion Speaker: Ps Stella
We must convey the love of Jesus through actions, live out God’s mission, and become the light and salt of the world.
Satan used Jesus' hunger as an excuse to try to get Him to turn stones into bread. We
will find that the devil's temptations often come when we are in urgent need or
difficulty, telling us to leave God and find another way out. It tempts us to
compromise with the world in order to dissolve difficult circumstances (stones) and
make our bodies and minds full and comfortable (turn into food).
We see Jesus respond and prevail with the words of the Bible: “Man shall not live by
bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.”
The devil is familiar with the Bible. Since the Lord Jesus gained victory by relying on God’s words, the devil used scriptures to deal with Him, saying “because it is written”. The Lord Jesus did not argue with Satan, but directly declared to the devil, " You shall not tempt the Lord your God as you tempted Him in Massah" (Deuteronomy 6:16).
Satan showed Jesus all the kingdoms and splendors of the world and asked Him to fall down and worship Him. In fact, Satan often uses the "glory of the nations" to seduce people's hearts and lead them to pursue and serve things other than God, thereby resisting and fighting God. However, the Lord Jesus used the authority of the King of Heaven to defeat the King of this world and rebuked him: “Get away, Satan”! Jesus shows us a way of victory over temptation for all who follow Him to follow.
Modern life is full of temptations to pursue wealth and material comfort. Advertising, social media, and shopping platforms continue to attract us. Christians must learn to discern and know that the real value lies in the inheritance of the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, the primary mission of Christians is to live a holy life by fighting against the sins and temptations of the world. Jesus here provides an example of how we can rely on God’s Word when we face temptation.
Jesus returned to Galilee and began to preach and declare, "Repent, for the kingdom of
heaven is at hand." This was the beginning of His public ministry, which foreshadowed
the church's mission to live out - to preach the gospel of the kingdom of heaven and
call people to return to God.
Therefore, let us regard evangelism as the mission of every Christian and face any
environment with courage. In life, we are to seize opportunities to bring the good news
of the gospel to those around us.
Jesus called Peter, Andrew, James, and John and invited them to become His disciples. This is not only a personal calling, but also building a community. One of the core missions of the church is to call people into faith, to form a spiritual family that cares, grows, and supports each other, and to cultivate believers so that they can become workers who are like fishers of people.
Jesus not only preached the truth about the kingdom of heaven, but also healed diseases, cast out demons, and performed miracles throughout Galilee. This allows us to see the Kingdom of God as a place that brings total redemption. Therefore, the mission of the church includes healing and caring so that people can experience God’s love. Because we are to do what Jesus did and bring God’s healing and mercy with us.
