تأملات فى آيــة اليوم...
بطرس الأولى 2 يذكرنا اننا هنا كشهود "لكي نخبر بفضائل الذي دعانا من الظلمة إلى نوره العجيب." لقد رأينا واختبرنا عمل الله. وتلقينا بركاته. فنحن الشعب الذى ينتظر تحريره و خلاصه العظيم. كيف يمكننا ان نظل صامتين؟ كيف يمكننا ان نظل نشعر بالمرارة، والتشاؤم والتثبيط؟ ان الاله الذى جعل القبر فارغ واقام جسد يسوع ربنا الحي و الممجد هو إلهنا. هو يستطيع أن يخلص. هو مخلصنا!
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Peter reminded us that we are here as God's chosen people, his witnesses, to "declare the praises of him who has called us out of darkness into his wonderful light" (1 Peter 2:9). We have experienced God's saving work in our lives. We have experienced God's saving work in our lives. We know he is the Lord. We are the recipients of his blessings and grace. We know our God is the true God. We are the people who anticipate his mighty deliverance yet to come. Our God is the God of the first and the last, the one who is and was and is to come. So, how can we remain silent? How can we remain bitter, pessimistic, or discouraged? The God who made the tomb empty and made the corpse of Jesus our living and exalted Lord is also our Father in heaven. He is mighty to save. We are witnesses that he alone is God!
صلاتي
يا الله، اعترف انى انزلق فى الروتين اليومى ولا استطيع الاستمتاع بخلاصك. اجعلنى ارى بوضوح واتكلم بجرأة عن افعالك المجيدة، واعمالك العظيمة ووعودك المستجابة. اؤمن بأنك تقودنى لمجد، لذا ساعدنى ان اشارك هذا المجد مع الذين لا يعرفونك كإله، ومخلص وملك. في اسم يسوع المسيح مخلصى اصلى. آمين.
My Prayer...
O Mighty God, I confess that I slip so easily into my day-to-day rut and sometimes grow immune to the joy and excitement of your salvation. Please give me fresh eyes to see and a bold voice to declare your glorious deeds, your mighty works, and your answered promises. I believe you are leading me to glory, so help me show and share that glory with those who do not yet know you as God, Savior, Lord, and King. In the name of Jesus Christ, my Savior, I pray. Amen.
