我們的人生並非完美無缺,但是 神賜給我們一個恩典,就是在我們裡面有一個不是從天然人而來的信心,使我們可以不(一直)定睛於失敗和痛苦,並且轉向 神的所是和所做 ,進而自然而然的向祂發出讚美。「讚美」來自於神所賜的信心,同時也是我們要用意志所揀選的行動,來宣揚 神的自己並祂大能的作為,把祂當得的榮耀歸給祂。 同樣的,感恩也不是因為我們外在的環境盡如人意,乃是新造的人在信心和意志裡對 神的回應。

We can hardly live a perfect life, but we can live a surpassing one with the heavenly faith received through God’s grace. Through faith we will be able to turn our eyes from difficult circumstances and focus on who He is and what He has done. Once we turn our eyes back to God, our praise to Him will flow out of us naturally. However, it is usually not our habit to do so. We ought to exercise our will consciously and intentionally to praise Him. May the Spirit help us to proclaim His name and wonderful deeds, and “ascribe to Him the glory due His name”.

Month of Praising - Day 19

Day 19
1 CHRONICLES 29:10-13
10 Therefore David blessed the Lord before all the assembly; and David said:“Blessed are You, Lord God of Israel, our Father, forever and ever.11 Yours, O Lord, is the greatness,The power and the glory,The victory and the majesty;For all that is in heaven and in earth is Yours;Yours is the kingdom, O Lord,And You are exalted as head over all. 12 Both riches and honor come from You,And You reign over all.In Your hand is power and might;In Your hand it is to make greatAnd to give strength to all. 13“Now therefore, our God,We thank You And praise Your glorious name.
When David saw that the whole nation of Israel was in love with God and dedicated to building the Temple, he greatly rejoiced and praised the Lord. First, David knew very well the sovereignty of the Lord, and that the Lord is exalted as head over all; His is all that is in heaven and in earth, the kingdom, the glory and the power. Second, David knew very well the relationship between Israel and the Lord, as he said "Lord God of Israel, our Father". The God Most High is our Heavenly Father, who gives us abundance and makes us strong. So David and the people gratefully give thanks to the Lord, and praised His glorious name.
Hallelujah ... Today, in Christ, we are forgiven, we are delivered from the power of death, and become the children of the God Most High! All of this is because of the love and the grace of God. As it is written, "He raises the poor from the dust, And lifts the beggar from the ash heap, To set them among princes, And make them inherit the throne of glory." (1 Samuel 2:8a) Therefore, we should praise our God loudly with great joy and a grateful heart, Who is exalted as head over all and the Heavenly Father that so loves us. "For Yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever." (Mathew 6:13)


第19天
代上29:10-13
10 所以,大衛在會眾面前稱頌耶和華說:「耶和華,我們的父以色列的神,是應當稱頌直到永永遠遠的! 11 耶和華啊,尊大、能力、榮耀、強盛、威嚴都是你的,凡天上地下的都是你的,國度也是你的,並且你為至高,為萬有之首。 12 豐富、尊榮都從你而來,你也治理萬物。在你手裡有大能大力,使人尊大、強盛都出於你。13 我們的神啊,現在我們稱謝你,讚美你榮耀之名。
當大衛看到以色列舉國上下都因愛神,而樂意奉獻為神建造聖殿時,就大大歡喜稱頌耶和華。一是大衛非常認識神的主權,知道耶和華神為至高、為萬有之首;天上地上、國度、榮耀、權柄、能力都是屬祂的。二是大衛非常認識以色列與神的關係,說“耶和華,我們的父以色列的神”;這位至高神更是賜豐富給我們、使我們強盛的天父;因此大衛和眾人都心存感恩的稱謝耶和華,讚美神榮耀之名。
哈利路亞…今天我們在基督裡過犯得蒙赦免、脫離死的權勢,成為至高神的兒女!這一切都是神的愛、神的恩典;如經上說:“他從灰塵裡抬舉貧寒人,從糞堆中提拔窮乏人,使他們與王子同坐,得著榮耀的座位”。 (撒上2:8a) 所以我們要在喜樂中大大的張口,心存感恩的來讚美我們為至高、為萬有之首的神,就是愛我們的天父。因為國度、權柄、榮耀全是祢的,直到永遠。(路6:13)
