聖經閱讀：詩篇137:1-9
2012年11月8日(四)
昨天我們學到了如何在讚美、敬拜與開心時使用弦樂器，今天，我們要學習弦樂器的其它用途。詩篇49:4說：「我的耳朵要傾聽比喻；我要彈琴闡明其中的意義。」有時候，樂手會在他們分享信息或是解釋謎語時彈奏豎琴。此外，撒母耳記上16:23告訴我們，大衛為了讓掃羅王舒服一點而彈奏豎琴，它說：「從那時起，每當上帝差來的邪靈附在掃羅身上時，大衛就拿他的豎琴來彈，邪靈立刻離開掃羅，掃羅就覺得暢快舒服。」 今天的經文談到以色列人被抓去巴比倫當俘虜的情況。那時，他們很傷心，因為他們無法在聖殿裡敬拜上帝，所以，「在河邊的柳樹上，我們把豎琴掛了起來。」（第2節） 這些經文提醒我，要為著今天能夠敬拜、榮耀上帝而感恩。 —DF 「我有生之日要歌頌他；我要一生一世歌頌我的上帝。」 詩篇146:2
禱告：天父，我感謝讚美祢。奉耶穌的名，阿們！

Bible Reading: Psalm 137:1-9

Yesterday we learned how stringed instruments were used for times of praise, worship and happiness. Today we will learn about other ways that stringed instruments were used. Psalm 49:4 says, “I myself listened to the stories. And now, with my harp, I will sing and reveal that message to you.” Sometimes musicians would play the harp as they shared a message or told the meaning of a riddle. And, 1 Samuel 16:23 tells us that David played the harp to make King Saul feel better. “Any time the bad spirit from God came on Saul, David would take his harp and play it. The bad spirit would leave Saul and he would begin to feel better.” Our Bible Reading today talks about the time when the Israelites were in captivity in Babylon. They were sad because they could not worship God in the temple. So, they hung their “harps on the willow trees nearby” (verse 2). These verses remind me to be thankful that I can worship and honor God today. —DF “I will praise the Lord all my life. I will sing praises to him all my life.” Psalm 146:2
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, I praise and thank You! In Jesus’ name. Amen. |
