🪧 引言

亲爱的弟兄姐妹，我们正处在一个考验人“持久力”的时代。
生活的压力、信仰的冲击、服事的疲乏——都在不断消耗我们的“属灵电量”。但今天，神要对我们说：
• “坚持下去。”
• “靠主的力量，站立得稳。”
• “你们的劳苦在主里面不是徒然的。”

今天我们要思想的是：属灵的耐力（Stamina）。
我们将从《帖撒罗尼迦前书》中学习：如何在信心、爱心与盼望中持守到底，直到主再来的日子。

⸻

📖 一、三根属灵耐力的支柱（帖前1:3）

“因信心所作的工，因爱心所受的劳苦，因盼望我们主耶稣基督所存的忍耐。”

1️⃣ 信心带来行动
• 信心不是概念，而是行动的动力。
• 帖撒罗尼迦信徒初信就受逼迫，却没有退缩。

2️⃣ 爱心产生牺牲
• 爱心推动他们彼此服事，甘愿受苦劳。
• 真爱不只是情感，而是愿意流汗、流泪，甚至流血。

3️⃣ 盼望支撑忍耐
• 他们之所以能坚持，是因为相信主必再来。
• 有目标的等待，是充满力量的耐力。

⸻

🛡️ 二、耐力需要勇气与属灵伙伴（帖前2:2；3:5）

“我们靠神的帮助，在大争战中放胆讲道。”
“我打发人去，要晓得你们的信心如何。”• 保罗不是一个人在战斗，而是与教会彼此托举。 • 属灵的耐力不是单打独斗，而是属灵同盟、彼此代祷、彼此坚固。 • 他担心信徒被“那诱惑人的”击倒——因为仇敌最想让我们中途放弃。

⸻

🌱 三、耐力需要圣洁生活与日常操练

（帖前4:1–8；5:16–18）

（1）圣洁让我们不被罪耗尽力量

“神召我们，本不是要我们沾染污秽，乃是要我们成为圣洁。”• 属灵滑落常从生活妥协开始。 • 远离淫乱，节制情欲，是属灵耐力的基础。

（2）属灵操练让我们补充力量

“要常常喜乐，不住地祷告，凡事谢恩。”• 喜乐是选择的态度，而非环境反应。 • 祷告是灵魂的呼吸，感恩是属灵的免疫力。 • 每日操练让我们重新得力。

⸻

⛰️ 四、靠主再来的盼望奔到底

（帖前4:16–18；5:8）

“主必亲自从天降临……我们就要与主永远同在。”• 保罗以主再来作为书信的高潮，不是为了制造惧怕，而是点燃盼望。 • 属灵的耐力不是靠人意志力，而是靠永恒眼光与将来的荣耀。 • 我们不放弃，是因为我们知道： • “这不是结局。” • “主还要来！”

⸻

🪔 结语与呼召

亲爱的弟兄姐妹，你今天是否感到疲惫？是否想放弃服事、信仰或盼望？
主今天藉着《帖撒罗尼迦前书》鼓励我们：
• 有信心，就继续去行动；
• 有爱心，就继续去服事；
• 有盼望，就继续去忍耐。

主再来的日子近了——愿我们披戴光明，持守到底，成为属灵的马拉松勇士！

⸻

🙏 结束祷告

主啊，
我们承认，我们有时会疲惫软弱，甚至想放弃。
但祢今日借着祢的话语，赐下了新的盼望、爱心与信心。

求祢坚固我们的手，使我们不停止服事；
坚固我们的脚，使我们不停止奔跑；
坚固我们的心，使我们不停止盼望。

直到祢荣耀再来的日子，
我们愿靠着祢，不灰心，不丧志，勇敢奔走天路！

奉主耶稣基督的圣名祷告，阿们。

Spiritual Stamina: Lessons from 1 Thessalonians

📅 Date: June 11, 2025

⸻

🪧 Introduction

Dear brothers and sisters, we are living in a time that truly tests our spiritual stamina.
Life’s pressures, challenges to our faith, and fatigue in ministry are all draining our “spiritual battery.” But today, God speaks to us:
• “Keep going.”
• “Stand firm in the Lord’s strength.”
• “Your labor in the Lord is not in vain.”

Today, we reflect on spiritual stamina—the strength to endure in faith.
From 1 Thessalonians, we will learn how to remain steadfast in faith, love, and hope until the day of Christ’s return.

⸻

📖 I. Three Pillars of Spiritual Stamina (1 Thessalonians 1:3)

“Your work produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope in our Lord Jesus Christ.”

1️⃣ Faith That Leads to Action
• Faith is not just a concept—it moves us to act.
• The Thessalonian believers faced persecution right after believing, but they did not back down.

2️⃣ Love That Leads to Sacrifice
• Love drove them to serve one another and endure hardship.
• True love is not just emotion—it’s willingness to sweat, to weep, even to bleed.

3️⃣ Hope That Sustains Endurance
• They could persevere because they believed in the Lord’s return.
• Waiting with purpose becomes strength-filled endurance.

⸻

🛡️ II. Stamina Requires Courage and Spiritual Companions

(1 Thessalonians 2:2; 3:5)

“With the help of our God we dared to tell you his gospel in the face of strong opposition.”
“I sent to find out about your faith…”• Paul was not fighting alone—he stood with the church in mutual support. • Spiritual stamina isn’t a solo battle; it’s a spiritual alliance, marked by prayer, encouragement, and accountability. • Paul feared the tempter might have shaken their faith—because the enemy often targets our endurance.

⸻

🌱 III. Stamina Requires Holiness and Daily Spiritual Disciplines

(1 Thessalonians 4:1–8; 5:16–18)

(1) Holiness Keeps Sin from Draining Us

“God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life.”• Spiritual decline often begins with moral compromise. • Avoiding sexual immorality and living in self-control are foundations for stamina.

(2) Spiritual Disciplines Renew Our Strength

“Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances.”• Joy is a choice, not just a reaction. • Prayer is the breath of the soul. • Gratitude is spiritual immunity. • These practices refill our strength daily.

⸻

⛰️ IV. Stamina Runs on the Hope of Christ’s Return

(1 Thessalonians 4:16–18; 5:8)

“The Lord himself will come down from heaven… and so we will be with the Lord forever.”• Paul ends this letter not with fear but with hope. • Spiritual stamina is not fueled by willpower, but by an eternal perspective and the glory to come. • We do not give up because we know: • “This is not the end.” • “The Lord is coming again!”

⸻

🪔 Conclusion & Call

Dear brothers and sisters, are you weary today?
Have you considered giving up on your ministry, your faith, or your hope?

God speaks to us through 1 Thessalonians:
• If you have faith, keep acting.
• If you have love, keep serving.
• If you have hope, keep enduring.

The day of the Lord’s return is near—may we put on the armor of light, press on, and become spiritual marathoners who finish the race.

⸻

🙏 Closing Prayer

Lord,
We confess that we sometimes grow tired and weak—even wanting to give up.
But today, through Your Word, You have given us new hope, love, and faith.

Please strengthen our hands so that we do not stop serving.
Strengthen our feet so that we do not stop running.
Strengthen our hearts so that we do not stop hoping.

Until the day of Your glorious return,
We choose to rely on You—to not lose heart, to not give up, but to run the heavenly race with boldness.

In the name of our Lord Jesus Christ we pray, Amen.
