Размышление над стихом дня
Наше сокровище и наша истина находятся в Писании. Писание – это Божье руководство, как нам избежать опасных ловушек сатаны и жить под Божьим благословением. Вместо того, чтобы смотреть на Божье Слово, как на нечто ограничивающее нас, нам следует видеть в нем дар любви и ценить его больше всех богатств.
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Our treasure and our truth come from God's holy Scriptures. The Scriptures are God's guidance for us and his treasures, given to us as the Holy Spirit leads us to understand and apply them as we reach to become more like Jesus (1 Corinthians 2:10-12). They teach us how to avoid the evil one's harmful traps and to live God's blessed life (2 Timothy 3:14-17). Rather than seeing God's Scriptures as limiting us in this life, we need to see them as a gift of love to bless us, to prevent us from falling into the traps of this life, and to lead us into life forever with God. We can come to value them more highly than riches, for in them we will find our great reward, both in this life and the life to come (Psalm 19:11).
Моя молитва
Святой Боже, благодарю Тебя за Твое написанное Слово, Писание Твоего народа. Пусть Твоя истина оживет в моей жизни, также, как и в моем сердце и разуме. Во имя Твоего Сына Иисуса я молю. Аминь.
My Prayer...
Holy God, thank you for your written Word, the Scriptures, and your "living" Word, also the Scriptures when used by the Holy Spirit.* May your truth come alive in my life just as it does in my heart and mind. In the name of your Son Jesus, your living Word who fulfilled the Scriptures, I pray. Amen.
* Hebrews 4:12; 1 Peter 1:23-25. Of course, Jesus himself was the incarnated Word of God (John 1:1-8) and fulfilled, or as some have suggested, "filled up" the meaning of the Law God gave to Moses (Matthew 5:17).
