本週經文Scriptures:以弗所書5:15-21 Ephesians
15 你們要謹慎行事,不要像愚昧人,當像智慧人。 16 要愛惜光陰,因為現今的世代邪惡。 17 不要作糊塗人,要明白主的旨意如何。 18 不要醉酒,酒能使人放蕩;乃要被聖靈充滿。 19 當用詩章、頌詞、靈歌彼此對說,口唱心和地讚美主。 20 凡事要奉我們主耶穌基督的名常常感謝父 神。 21 又當存敬畏基督的心,彼此順服。
15 Be very careful, then, how you live—not as unwise but as wise, 16 making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil. 17 Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is. 18 Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit, 19 speaking to one another with psalms, hymns, and songs from the Spirit. Sing and make music from your heart to the Lord, 20 always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 21 Submit to one another out of reverence for Christ.

We also pray Your blessings upon the relationships between China, the U.S., Russia, and Ukraine, among other nations. You are the mediator between nations. In the name of Jesus Christ, we declare that all division, strife, and confusion shall depart from these countries. May the angels of peace surround and guard them.
