(453) 「灵粮主题 TODAY’s Topic」：神怜悯祂的仆人和百姓 God Have Compassion on His Servants and People

「灵粮经节 TODAY’s Verses」：「大卫王赞美神说： 耶和华啊，你的名存到永远！耶和华啊，你可记念的名存到万代！耶和华要为他的百姓伸冤，为他的仆人後悔；King David Praises God and said: Your name, LORD, endures forever, your renown, LORD, through all generations. For the LORD will vindicate his people and have compassion on his servants. 」 {诗篇 Psalm 135: 13-14 节）

「灵粮分享 TODAY’s Sharing」： 今晨在「荒漠甘泉 Wells of Grace」里，读到考门夫人牧师 Rev. Lettie Cowman 写了一篇， “亚伯兰的誓约” 的分享。牧者引用创世纪 Genesis 15:13-14 节，在经节里，神提醒被召的仆人亚伯兰说， “你要的确知道，你的後裔必寄居别人的地，又服事那地的人；那地的人要苦待他们四百年。并且他们所要服事的那国，我要惩罚，後来他们必带着许多财物从那里出来。” 也就是灵粮主题要分享的 “神怜悯祂的仆人和百姓”。牧者解释道，神给我们的祝福中间，常有两个是我们最不欢迎的：（1）一是迟延;（2）一是苦难。神给亚伯兰的誓约尚未实现，又给了他的后裔另一个誓约，看起来让人难以推测忍耐。然而，这些誓约虽然迟延，最后却都实现了。以色列人出埃及时，摩西在出埃及记 Exodus 12:36 节里告诉我们，当摩西带领以色列人离开埃及，神的仆人摩西和神的子民们果然 “把埃及人的财物都夺取带了出来” 。神常用迟延和苦难来试验我们，但这一切中间却有神的誓约 — 我们的救恩，也就是他在基督里与我们所立的新约，拯救我们这世界罪人，离弃了罪的死亡惩罚，得有永生的赏赐。所以就让我们学像今日灵粮经节里的大卫王一样，既然承受神的迟延与苦难，他还是依然信靠赞美神，因为这是神给的试炼，最终神还是给了我们祂的祝福。大家星期五开心，周末愉快！

「灵粮祷告 TODAY’s Prayer」：今日灵粮也就引用罗马书 Romans 8: 33 节，和大家在主的爱里相互勉励与祷告，使徒保罗在经节里鼓励我们说， “谁能控告神所拣选的人呢？有神称他们为义了 “。 求神怜悯帮助我们的信心坚定，因为祂是信实的：”神怜悯祂的仆人和百姓“。因此，我们都得忍耐等候神的承诺和祂给的伸冤，一生当信赖耶和华，倚靠他的恩典。祷告奉主名求的。阿门 !

In "荒漠甘泉 Wells of Grace" this morning, I read the sharing of "Abram's Oath" written by Rev. Lettie Cowman. Pastor quoted Genesis 15:13-14, in which God reminded Abram, the called servant, "Know for certain that for four hundred years your descendants will be strangers in a country not their own and that they will be enslaved and mistreated there. But I will punish the nation they serve as slaves, and afterward they will come out with great possessions.” This is also the theme of this spiritual food to share about, that is, "God Have Compassion on His Servants and People." Pastor Cowman explained that among the blessings God gave us, there are often two that we least welcome: (1) delay, and (2) suffering. God's oath to Abram has yet to be fulfilled, yet another oath has been given to his descendants, which seems hard to speculate and endure. However, these vows, although delayed, were finally fulfilled. When the Israelites came out of Egypt, Moses in the Bible told us in Exodus 12:36 that when Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt, Moses, the God's servant with his God’s chosen people really "took all their possessions and wealth of the Egyptians and brought them out. " Although God tries us often with delay and suffering, in all of this he grants us with his grace - our salvation, that is the new covenant for us in Christ, our savior who delivers us as sinners of this world from death penalty in sin, and reward us with an eternal life. So let us learn from King David and praise the Lord still for his delay and suffering, because this is a trial given by God, and ultimately his blessing to us. Happy Friday everyone and happy weekend!

To this end, 今日灵粮 Spiritual Food Today would like to quote Romans 8: 33, citing this verse from Apostle Paul and his teaching in the verse to encourage us and pray for each other in the love of our Lord that, " Who will bring any charge against those whom God has chosen? It is God who justifies. " Grant us with your mercy, God and help us stay firm in our faith, because He is faithful: "God Have Compassion on His Servants and People". Therefore, let us wait patiently for God's promises and his vengeance, and rely on his grace all our lives. Pray in the name of the Lord. Amen!
