对今日诗句的想法

我们在神的国里领受着神荣耀的得胜。我们将同众天使和圣徒们,在得胜与不止息的喜乐中永远与天父同住。神的国并非等主耶稣再来才开始。神的国在教会和神百姓中,以及那些寻求并顺服神旨意的人当中已经开始了。以色列的圣洁的神谦卑自己,让耶稣来救赎我们,使我们归给他成为圣洁的子民。因此,我们敬拜时要存着一颗敬畏之心。我们还能做什么呢?唯有带着满心的感恩和惊奇献上敬拜。

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

We are receiving the triumphant and glorious victory of God in his Kingdom. We will join with the angels and the saints of old and live with the Father forever in victorious and never-ending joy. But this Kingdom doesn't just begin when Jesus returns. God lives enthroned on the praises of his people (Psalm 22:3 ESV). His Kingdom has started now in his Church, his people, those in whom God's will is cherished and obeyed. So our worship should be filled with awe that the holy God of Israel is also the lowly God who came to us in Jesus, redeemed us, and made us a holy people unto himself, people who enjoy bringing him praise and living with purpose for him. What else can we do but worship God with our daily lives* as our heartfelt thanksgiving and wonder-struck awe? And this worship isn't just in a church building, but in all of life!


* Many have tried to make our verse for today about worship in Christian assembly. However, Hebrews 13:1-16 details what true worship is, in parallel to Romans 12:1-2!

我的祷告

圣洁、公义的天父啊,万有都是你的。感谢你在主耶稣里赐下你的祝福、应许、盼望和得胜。求你帮助我,使我在不信主的朋友面前活出感恩和得胜的生命,好使我成为我孩子的榜样,使他们也能够分享你荣耀的国度和最终的得胜。奉主耶稣权能的圣名求,阿们!

My Prayer...

Holy and Righteous Father, all things are yours. Thank you for sharing your blessings, promises, hope, and victory with us in Jesus. Please help us, and please help me, to live a more thankful and victorious life before my unbelieving friends and family as an example, so they may come to share in your glorious Kingdom and ultimate victory. And please, dear Father, shape my language to be the language of thanksgiving and praise, not the language of authority, pessimism, hate, or spitefulness. May it reflect the redemptive way Jesus spoke to others. In Jesus' mighty name, I pray this to your praise and glory. Amen.
