【诗篇 112:7】他必不怕凶恶的信息；他心坚定，倚靠耶和华。【Psa 112:7】He will have no fear of bad news; his heart is steadfast, trusting in the Lord.

诗篇112篇描绘一个敬畏耶和华、喜爱祂命令之人的生命。Psalm 112 describes the life of a person who fears the Lord and delights in His commands. 这样的人并不是不会遇见困难，也不是听不到凶恶的信息，而是在坏消息临到时，他的心仍然坚定，因为他的信心不是建立在环境上，而是建立在耶和华身上。This does not mean that he will never face difficulties or hear bad news. Rather, when bad news comes, his heart remains steadfast because his faith is not built on circumstances, but on the Lord.

生活中，我们常会面对突如其来的坏消息、危险、损失和未知。事情一发生，我们很容易被惧怕抓住，不断猜测、反复思想最坏的结果。In life, we often face unexpected bad news, danger, loss, and uncertainty. When something happens, it is easy for us to be gripped by fear, constantly wondering what might happen and repeatedly imagining the worst possible outcome.很多时候，使我们失去平安的，不只是事情本身，更是我们对未知的恐惧。Very often, what causes us to lose our peace is not only the situation itself, but also our fear of the unknown.

惧怕也显明我们真正倚靠的是什么。Fear also reveals what we are truly relying on.我们口里说相信神，但坏消息临到时，却常常先相信自己的眼见、耳闻和判断，把问题越看越大，以致忘记神仍然掌权。We may say that we trust God, but when bad news comes, we often first believe what we see, hear, and judge for ourselves. We focus more and more on the problem until it seems bigger than everything else, and we forget that God is still in control.

诗人却把我们的眼目从“凶恶的信息”转向耶和华，从惧怕转向坚定倚靠。信心的争战，不是忽略坏消息，而是不让其成为我们心里的主。Yet the psalmist turns our eyes away from “bad news” and back to the Lord, from fear to steadfast trust. The battle of faith is not about ignoring bad news, but about refusing to let it rule our hearts.当惧怕起来时，我们要停止不断预演最坏的结果的思想，转而把心带回神面前，把惧怕和不确定交给祂，数算祂过去的恩典，记念祂的慈爱与信实，让神的话重新掌管我们的心。When fear rises, we need to stop replaying the worst possible outcomes in our minds and instead bring our hearts back before God, surrendering our fears and uncertainties to Him, remembering His grace in the past, reflecting on His lovingkindness and faithfulness, and allowing His Word to rule our hearts again.

真正倚靠神的人，不是从来没有惧怕，而是在惧怕出现时，一次又一次选择神。A person who truly trusts God is not someone who never feels afraid, but someone who chooses God again and again whenever fear arises.不怕凶恶的信息，不是因为我们刚强，而是因为我们敬畏神、倚靠祂。Having no fear of bad news is not because we are strong, but because we fear God and trust in Him.

祷告Prayer:

天父，求祢赦免我常因未知而惧怕，听见坏消息时，先相信自己的眼见和想象，却没有先来到祢面前。Heavenly Father, please forgive me for so often being afraid of the unknown. When I hear bad news, I first believe what I see and imagine instead of coming before You first.求祢使我悔改，不再让惧怕辖制我的心。Please lead me to repentance and help me no longer allow fear to rule my heart.

求祢坚固我的信心，使我在凶恶的信息临到时，仍然倚靠祢，定睛在祢的信实和应许上。即使环境没有改变，也让我选择信靠祢，相信祢仍然掌权。Please strengthen my faith, so that when bad news comes, I may still trust in You and keep my eyes fixed on Your faithfulness and promises. Even if my circumstances do not change, help me choose to trust You and believe that You are still in control.让我记得，洪水泛滥之时，祢仍坐着为王；祢掌管明天，所以我的心可以安稳，我的生命可以有盼望。Let me remember that even when the floodwaters rise, You still sit enthroned as King; You hold tomorrow in Your hands, so my heart can be secure and my life can be filled with hope.

奉主耶稣基督的名祷告，阿们。In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.
