【诗109:26–27】耶和华我的神啊，求你帮助我，照你的慈爱拯救我，使他们知道这是你的手，是你耶和华所行的事。【Psa 109:26–27】Help me, O LORD my God; save me in accordance with your love. Let them know that it is your hand, that you, O LORD , have done it.



灵修默想

这是大卫的诗篇。大卫呼求神的帮助与拯救，他的信心不是建立在，自己为神做了多少好事上，而是建立在神的慈爱（Hesed）之上。This is a psalm of David. David cries out to God for help and deliverance. His faith is not based on how much good he has done for God, but on God’s steadfast love (Hesed).

面对逼迫他的人，他呼求神的公义，不是为了报复或让自己好过，也不是为了证明逼迫他的人是坏人、而自己是好人；而是为了“使他们知道这是你的手，是你耶和华所行的事”——好让人能认识神，并得着救恩。When he faces those who persecute him, he calls on God’s justice, not to take revenge, make himself feel better, or prove that those who persecute him are bad while he is good; rather, it is so that “they may know that this is Your hand, that You, Lord, have done it”—so that people may come to know God and receive salvation.

诗篇 109 篇所叙述的景况，在新约中最终都应验在主耶稣身上。主耶稣被骂不还口，受害不说威吓的话，只将自己交托给按公义审判的主。The situation described in Psalm 109 is ultimately fulfilled in the Lord Jesus in the New Testament. When He was insulted, the Lord Jesus did not retaliate; when He suffered, He made no threats, but entrusted Himself to the One who judges justly.最后，神使基督从死里复活，好让世人都知道：“这是祢的手，是祢耶和华所行的事”——由此展现了神终极且不渝的爱，并带来了这宝贵的救恩。In the end, God raised Christ from the dead, so that the world might know: “This is Your hand; You, Lord, have done it.” In this way, God revealed His ultimate and unfailing love and brought about this precious salvation.

祷告Prayer

亲爱的天父：Dear Heavenly Father:

早晨我来到祢的面前。当我默想祢这段话语时，感谢祢的光照。This morning I come before You. As I meditate on this passage of Your Word, I thank You for shining Your light on me.我向祢悔改，因为在不知不觉中，我从信心恩典里坠落了，开始走上一条靠自己行为，做好人好事称义的道路。I repent before You, because without realising it, I have fallen away from living by faith and grace and started walking down a path of relying on my own works and trying to justify myself by being a good person and doing good deeds.

当别人夸赞我，我就高兴；当别人说我不好，我就生气、发怒——我竟把信心建立在了自己的行为上。When others praise me, I feel happy; when others say something negative about me, I become angry and upset—I have actually built my faith on my own behaviour.如今，我向祢回转，我也向祢呼求：求祢照祢的慈爱拯救我，带领我走上十字架舍己的道路，把我从靠自己、高举、塑造自己、骄傲、论断与不饶恕中拯救出来。Now I turn back to You and cry out to You: please save me according to Your steadfast love. Lead me onto the way of the cross and self-denial, and deliver me from relying on myself, exalting myself, building up my own image, pride, judgement, and unforgiveness.

求祢帮助我认识我旧人的败坏，在环境里操练否定自己。Please help me recognise the corruption of my old self and practise denying myself in every circumstance.在被否定的过程中，心里难受的时候，快快转向神，靠圣灵背起自己的十字架，跟我里面各种不服、顶撞、辩解、自保的声音争战，向我旧人死，不断地丧掉旧生命。When I am being denied and feel hurt inside, help me quickly turn to God, rely on the Holy Spirit, take up my cross, and fight against every voice within me that resists, argues back, makes excuses, and tries to protect myself. Help me die to my old self and continually let go of my old life.在环境里操练爱神的命令，去爱人，让基督不断在我里面增大，成为我的生命，在我里面掌权。In every circumstance, train me to obey Your command to love You and to love others, so that Christ may continually increase within me, become my life, and reign within me.

奉主耶稣的名祷告，阿们。In the name of the Lord Jesus, Amen.
