28 Nov 2016, Psalm 7 诗篇 7, Cry for Justice 为公义呼求

Scripture Reading  : Psalm 7

Theme                       : Cry for Justice

 

Pray for Protection (1–2).

The believer is in trouble from evil people and prays to God for protection.

Confession of Innocence (3–5).

The believer knows he has not done anything evil against these people for these people to afflict life threatening evil against him.

Plead for God to Act Justly (6–17).

The believer knows God is righteous and will judge evil. God is angry every day against evil because He is a righteous God. At the same time, God is patient and waits for the ungodly to repent. If the ungodly does not repent, God will judge him in righteousness. Often times, the ungodly will fall into the very pit he had dug for the righteous (Esther 7:9; Dan. 6:24).

 

Praying the Scripture

God is a righteous God, but He is also a patient God who waits for the ungodly to repent. If you are suffering injustice from the ungodly, cry out to God and He will deliver you. Trust God and don’t give up praying (Luke 18:1-8).
 
 
 
 

经文:诗篇7

主题:为公义呼求

 

求神保护(1-2)。

这位信徒因恶人陷入困境,并祈求神的保护。

承认自己的无辜(3-5)。

这位信徒晓得他没有向那些人行恶,叫他们因此用恶威胁他的生命。

求神按公义而行(6-17)。

这位信徒晓得神是公义的,必要审批罪恶。神天天向罪恶发怒,因为祂是公义的神。与此同时,神有耐心,等待不义之人悔改。不义之人若不悔改,神将按祂的公义审判他。很多时候,不虔不义之人会掉入他自己为义人所挖的坑(帖7:9;但6:24)。

用经文祷告

神是公义之神,但也是个等候不义之人悔改的耐心之神。你若遭受不敬虔之人不平的对待,要向神呼求,祂必搭救你。要信靠神,不要放弃祷告(路18:1-8)。
