تأملات فى آيــة اليوم...
أخبر الله سليمان أن المعبد سيكون مكان يستطيع شعبه أن يأتوا فيه ضامنين ان صلواتهم سوف تُسمع إذا سعوا إلى الله بصدق وإتضاع. هذا الوعد لا يزال حقيقي، حتى يومنا هذا، بينما معبد الله المادي ليس موجود، لكن معبده الروحي موجود في تجمع شعبه (راجع كورنثوس الأولى 16:3؛ متى 20:18). يا لها من بركة عظيمة وهبة قوية لنا اليوم! علمنا انه عند تجمعنا مع المؤمنين بإتضاع أمام الله ونسعى لوجوده فسوف يسمعنا. عوضاً عن إنتظار بدأ مجهود عالمي ، لما لا نجتمع سوياً بانتظام مع الآخرين الذين سوف ينضموا لنا في مجهود الصلاة هذا؟
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
God told Solomon that the Temple would be a place where his people could come and be assured that their prayers would be heard if they honestly and humbly sought God, turned from their wicked ways, and returned to His way of grace, mercy, protection, and love; then He would hear them. This promise remains true to this very day, for while God's physical Temple isn't standing, His spiritual one is found in the gathering of His people (1 Corinthians 3:16; Matthew 18:20) and in each of their bodies (1 Corinthians 6:19-20). What a great blessing and what a powerful gift for us today! The Father will hear us when we gather with believers and humble ourselves before him, turning from our selfish ways and seeking his presence. Rather than waiting for a grandiose, worldwide effort to begin humbling ourselves and turning toward God, why not gather regularly with others who will join us in this prayer effort? Let's initiate a global revival, renewal, and transformation by starting with prayer and turning to God within us!
صلاتي
أبي المحب، انا أسعى جدياً لوجودك الآن. من فضلك سامحني على خطيتي. من فضلك استخدمني لأكون مؤثراً بالخير في زمني. والأكثر يا أبي، من فضلك تحرك لتجلب الإحياء والشفاء لزمننا، وشعبنا، وأرضنا. نحن بحاجة شديدة لإرشادك، وبركتك، وشخصيتك في حكومتنا وبين شعبنا. في اسم يسوع اصلي. آمين.
My Prayer...
Loving Father, we earnestly seek your presence. Please forgive us for our sins as we renounce all powers and influences that hold our hearts captive and distract us from you and your will. Please use us, Jesus' disciples, to influence this turn toward you in our day. O, dear Father, please bring revival and healing to our time, among your people, and to this world. We desperately need your guidance, blessing, grace, and character in our governments and among all peoples. We pray this, together, agreeing in Jesus' name with a commitment to live for you. Amen.
