上帝的幫助

上帝的幫助
聖經閱讀：詩篇121:1-8
2012年11月14日(三)

我喜歡欣賞群山峻嶺，它們是如此美麗！今天的詩篇談到「山」，第1節說：「我舉目觀望群山；我的幫助從哪裏來？」 　「山」是大而且堅固的，當感到軟弱時，我想也許能從某一個堅強的東西得著力量。但是，「山」並不能幫助我們，當我們沮喪、孤單和軟弱時，只有上帝能真正幫助我們。 　今天的詩篇繼續談到上帝的大能和幫助，第3節說：「他不會讓你跌倒；你的保護者不會打盹。」上帝總是準備好要幫助我們，祂一天24小時都等著我們，我們可以永遠信靠祂。 　現今有很多人依靠藥物、酒精，或者靠人脈關係來得到幫助，但是真正有用的幫助來自上帝。今天，你要祈求上帝保護你，並且賜給你面對問題的力量。—ECW 「你進你出，上主都保護你，從現在直到永遠。」 詩篇121:8 禱告：上帝，我願永遠仰望祢，使我得著力量與保護。今天，謝謝祢幫助我。奉耶穌的名，阿們！ (EHI譯/台南聖教會英語團契)

God’s Help
Bible Reading: Psalm 121:1-8
Wednesday, November 14, 2012

I love to look at mountains and hills. They are so beautiful! Our psalm today talks about hills. Verse 1 says, “I look up to the hills for help. But where will my help really come from?” 　Hills are big and strong. When I feel weak, I might think that I can receive strength from something that is strong. But hills or mountains cannot help us. Only God can truly help us when we are depressed and lonely and weak. 　This psalm continues to talk about God’s power and help. “God will not let you fall. Your Protector will not fall asleep” (verse 3). God is always ready to help us, twenty-four hours a day. We can always depend on Him. 　Many people today look for help from drugs, alcohol or relationships. But real help comes from God. Ask Him to protect and give you strength to face your problems today. —ECW “The Lord will protect your soul. The Lord will help as you come and go. The Lord will help you now and forever!” Psalm 121:8 PRAYER: God, I want to always look to You for my strength and protection. Thank You for helping me today. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
