8月31日 诚心自洁

代下29:34
但祭司太少、不能剥尽燔祭牲的皮、所以他们的弟兄利未人帮助他们、直等燔祭的事完了、又等别的祭司自洁了、因为利未人诚心自洁、胜过祭司。
But the priests were too few, so that they could not flay all the burnt offerings: therefore their brothers the Levites helped them, until the work was ended, and until the priests had sanctified themselves; for the Levites were more upright in heart to sanctify themselves than the priests.
主耶稣!人若自洁,脱离卑贱的事,就必作贵重的器皿,成为圣洁,合乎主用,预备行各样的善事。祭司太少,利未代职。主啊!牧师太少,庄家熟透,求祢兴起信徒,诚心自洁,甘心为作主门徒,奋起代职,也算我一份,直到见主面。

8月30日 敬虔的母亲

代下29:1-2,4-5
希西家登基的时候、年二十五岁、在耶路撒冷作王二十九年.他母亲名叫亚比雅、是撒迦利雅的女儿。希西家行耶和华眼中看为正的事、效法他祖大卫一切所行的。他召众祭司和利未人来、聚集在东边的宽阔处、对他们说、利未人哪、当听我说、现在你们要洁净自己、又洁净耶和华你们列祖神的殿、从圣所中除去污秽之物。
Hezekiah began to reign when he was twenty-five years old; and he reigned twenty-nine years in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Abijah, the daughter of Zechariah. He did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, according to all that David his father had done.
He brought in the priests and the Levites, and gathered them together into the broad place on the east, and said to them, "Listen to me, you Levites! Now sanctify yourselves, and sanctify the house of Yahweh, the God of your fathers, and carry out the filthiness out of the holy place.
主耶稣!亚哈斯王不敬畏神,但,因王后亚比雅在耶和华神面前的敬虔,养育了希西家王行神眼中看为正的事。主啊!求祢赐智慧给敬畏神的母亲,赐苏醒的灵给不敬畏神的父亲,赐受教的心给每一个作儿女的。

8月29日 传承敬畏神的信念

代下28:1-3
亚哈斯登基的时候、年二十岁、在耶路撒冷作王十六年.不像他祖大卫行耶和华眼中看为正的事,却行以色列诸王的道、又铸造巴力的像.并且在欣嫩子谷烧香、用火焚烧他的儿女、行耶和华在以色列人面前所驱逐的外邦人那可憎的事.
Ahaz was twenty years old when he began to reign; and he reigned sixteen years in Jerusalem: and he didn't do that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, like David his father;but he walked in the ways of the kings of Israel, and made also molten images for the Baals. Moreover he burnt incense in the valley of the son of Hinnom, and burnt his children in the fire, according to the abominations of the nations whom Yahweh cast out before the children of Israel.
主耶稣!约坦王传承王位,却忽略了要传承最重要,最珍贵的,就是敬畏神的信念。主啊!圣经都是 神所默示的,于教训,督责,使人归正,教导人学义,都是有益的。如今,我得到了启示,要专心竭力传承敬畏神的信念给下一代。

8月28日 神使我强盛

代下27:6
约坦在耶和华他神面前行正道、以致日渐强盛。
So Jotham became mighty, because he ordered his ways before Yahweh his God.
主耶稣!耶和华神已经将他的训诲吩咐我们,为要我们殷勤遵循,凡遵行的便为有福。主啊!有人靠强者而强盛,然而,我靠的是祢, 我看重你的一切命令、就不至于羞愧。我且要在神的面前行正道,神必使我强盛,我也不再畏惧强敌的威吓,可以放胆见证主的名。

8月27日 神阻挡骄傲的人

代下26:16-18
他既强盛、就心高气傲、以致行事邪僻、干犯耶和华他的神、进耶和华的殿、要在香坛上烧香。祭司亚撒利雅率领耶和华勇敢的祭司八十人、跟随他进去。他们就阻挡乌西雅王、对他说、乌西雅阿、给耶和华烧香不是你的事、乃是亚伦子孙承接圣职祭司的事.你出圣殿吧、因为你犯了罪.你行这事耶和华神必不使你得荣耀。
But when he was strong, his heart was lifted up, so that he did corruptly, and he trespassed against Yahweh his God; for he went into Yahweh's temple to burn incense on the altar of incense. Azariah the priest went in after him, and with him eighty priests of Yahweh, who were valiant men: and they resisted Uzziah the king, and said to him, "It isn't for you, Uzziah, to burn incense to Yahweh, but for the priests the sons of Aaron, who are consecrated to burn incense. Go out of the sanctuary; for you have trespassed; neither shall it be for your honor from Yahweh God."
主耶稣!神和人的相助使乌西雅王强盛,但是,他却将强盛归功于自己,还要夺取祭司的权证。主啊!有时候,我也犯了乌西雅王骄傲自满的思想,想夺取他人的权证,我需要更加谦卑,因为神阻挡骄傲的人,赐恩给谦卑的人。

8月26日 定意寻求神

代下26:5
通晓神默示撒迦利亚在世的时候、乌西雅定意寻求神、他寻求耶和华、神就使他亨通。
He set himself to seek God in the days of Zechariah, who had understanding in the vision of God: and as long as he sought Yahweh, God made him to prosper.
主耶稣!乌西雅王决定要以耶和华为神,喜爱神的律法。主啊!我决定在生活和生计上以耶和华神的原则和法则为标准,我看重祢的一切命令,就不至于羞愧。我要在做法上寻求神的指引,并且和通晓神默示的仆人同行,好叫神在我身上一切的美旨都可以成就。

8月25日 敬畏神由心而发

代下25:2,14
亚玛谢行耶和华眼中看为正的事、只是心不专诚。亚玛谢杀了以东人回来、就把西珥的神像带回、立为自己的神、在他面前叩拜烧香。
He did that which was right in the eyes of Yahweh, but not with a perfect heart. Now it happened, after that Amaziah had come from the slaughter of the Edomites, that he brought the gods of the children of Seir, and set them up to be his gods, and bowed down himself before them, and burned incense to them.
主耶稣!亚玛谢亲近神、用嘴唇尊敬神、心却远离神,敬畏神,不过是领受人的吩咐。主啊!我要专心敬畏他,专心事奉他,专一跟随他,仍是从心而发,不是受人吩咐。

8月24日 三大工程

代下24:15-16
耶何耶大年纪老迈、日子满足而死.死的时候、年一百三十岁. 葬在大卫城列王的坟墓里.因为他在以色列人中行善、又事奉神、修理神的殿。
But Jehoiada grew old and was full of days, and he died; one hundred thirty years old was he when he died. They buried him in the city of David among the kings, because he had done good in Israel, and toward God and his house.
主耶稣!耶何耶大完成三大工程,日子满足而死,圆满人生,我效法的榜样。主啊!愿行善,事奉神,修理神的殿,成为我的喜乐,也是我的尊荣。我渴想听见,主说:孩子,你是忠心良善的仆人,来!与我一同坐席。

8月23日 欢乐又安静

代下23:20-21
又率领百夫长、和贵冑、与民间的官长、并国中的众民、请王从耶和华殿下来、由上门进入王宫、立王坐在国位上。国民都欢乐、合城都安静。众人已将亚他利雅用刀杀了。
He took the captains of hundreds, and the nobles, and the governors of the people, and all the people of the land, and brought down the king from the house of Yahweh: and they came through the upper gate to the king's house, and set the king on the throne of the kingdom. So all the people of the land rejoiced, and the city was quiet. Athaliah they had slain with the sword.
主耶稣!祢从死里复活,胜过死亡, 祢坐作为王,万国万民都要欢乐。又因祢的公义显明,合城都安静站立在祢的宝座前。主啊!我愿祢快回来。

In the seventh year Jehoiada strengthened himself, and took the captains of hundreds, Azariah the son of Jeroham, and Ishmael the son of Jehohanan, and Azariah the son of Obed, and Maaseiah the son of Adaiah, and Elishaphat the son of Zichri, into covenant with him. All the assembly made a covenant with the king in God's house. He said to them, "Behold, the king's son shall reign, as Yahweh has spoken concerning the sons of David.
主耶稣!耶何耶大奋勇自强,冒生命的危险,做神所要成就的事。主啊!我不再胆怯为祢作见证,我不再找借口推卸责任,我要奋勇自强,高举主耶稣基督的名,见证天父的爱,传扬主的圣名。

8月21日 恶人受审要避开

代下22:7-8
亚哈谢去见约兰就被害了、这是出乎神.因为他到了、就同约兰出去攻击宁示的孙子耶户.这耶户是耶和华所膏、使他剪除亚哈家的。耶户讨亚哈家罪的时候、遇见犹大的众首领、和亚哈谢的众侄子服事亚哈谢、就把他们都杀了。
Now the destruction of Ahaziah was of God, in that he went to Joram: for when he had come, he went out with Jehoram against Jehu the son of Nimshi, whom Yahweh had anointed to cut off the house of Ahab. It happened, when Jehu was executing judgment on the house of Ahab, that he found the princes of Judah, and the sons of the brothers of Ahaziah, ministering to Ahaziah, and killed them.
主耶稣!亚哈谢王的糊涂,恶人受审时,还领家人前往,招来杀身之祸。主啊!当耶和华神向恶人施行审判时,求圣灵在我的心中动工,敏锐神的作为,避开凶境。

8月20日 谁是我身边的谋士

代下22:2-4
亚哈谢登基的时候年四十二岁.在耶路撒冷作王一年.他母亲名叫亚他利雅、是暗利的孙女。亚哈谢也行亚哈家的道.因为他母亲给他主谋.使他行恶。他行耶和华眼中看为恶的事、像亚哈家一样.因他父亲死后有亚哈家的人给他主谋、以致败坏。
Forty-two years old was Ahaziah when he began to reign; and he reigned one year in Jerusalem: and his mother's name was Athaliah the daughter of Omri. He also walked in the ways of the house of Ahab; for his mother was his counselor to do wickedly. He did that which was evil in the sight of Yahweh, as did the house of Ahab; for they were his counselors after the death of his father, to his destruction.
主耶稣!亚哈谢因身边的谋士不认识耶和华神,以致败亡。主啊!今天,我要谨慎思考,重新对我周围的谋士给予定位。有那些是有聪明和才能,但,却不敬畏耶和华神。我决定要以敬畏神的人为我的谋士。

8月19日 耶和华神向大卫王守约施慈爱

代下21:7
耶和华却因自己与大卫所立的约,不肯灭大卫的家,照他所应许的,永远赐灯光与大卫和他的子孙。
However Yahweh would not destroy the house of David, because of the covenant that he had made with David, and as he promised to give a lamp to him and to his children always.
主耶稣!耶和华说,我要恩待谁,就恩待谁。要怜悯谁,就怜悯谁。耶和华神向谁立约,那人是有福的。主啊!谢谢祢,因为祢的救赎恩典,使我得以承受耶和华神与亚伯拉罕所立的约,叫我不至灭亡,反得永生,且在世上得怜悯,受恩待。

主耶稣!约沙法王与亚哈王相亲,良善与邪恶妥协带来家破人亡的悲剧。主啊!不从恶人的计谋,不站罪人的道路,不坐亵慢人的座位。宁愿失去商机,我坚决不与任何恶人联名做事。

8月17日向恶妥协的毛病

代下20:35-37
此后犹大王约沙法与以色列王亚哈谢交好.亚哈谢行恶太甚。二王合伙造船要往他施去.遂在以旬迦别造船。那时玛利沙人、多大瓦的儿子以利以谢、向约沙法预言、说、因你与亚哈谢交好、耶和华必破坏你所造的。后来那船果然破坏、不能往他施去了。
After this Jehoshaphat king of Judah joined himself with Ahaziah king of Israel. The same did very wickedly: and he joined himself with him to make ships to go to Tarshish; and they made the ships in Ezion Geber. Then Eliezer the son of Dodavahu of Mareshah prophesied against Jehoshaphat, saying, "Because you have joined yourself with Ahaziah, Yahweh has destroyed your works." The ships were broken, so that they were not able to go to Tarshish.
主耶稣!约沙法王忘了之前与亚哈王结亲差点丧命的经历,现在又与作恶的亚哈谢王合作。主啊!感谢祢提醒我有向恶妥协的老毛病,我有利用神赦罪恩典的思维,求主赦免我的过犯,也求主加添我力量,使我对神的法则坚守不渝。

8月16日 敬畏神的明证

代下20:20-21
次日清早众人起来、往提哥亚的旷野去.出去的时候、约沙法站着说、犹大人和耶路撒冷的居民哪、要听我说、信耶和华你们的神、就必立稳.信他的先知就必亨通。约沙法既与民商议了、就设立歌唱的人、颂赞耶和华、使他们穿上圣洁的礼服、走在军前赞美耶和华、说、当称谢耶和华.因他的慈爱永远长存。
They rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, "Listen to me, Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem! Believe in Yahweh your God, so you shall be established! Believe his prophets, so you shall prosper." When he had taken counsel with the people, he appointed those who should sing to Yahweh, and give praise in holy array, as they went out before the army, and say, Give thanks to Yahweh; for his loving kindness endures forever.
主耶稣!约沙法王在先知,百姓面前的谦卑順服的信心是敬畏神的明证。主啊!求圣灵常光照和启示,好叫我的生命有敬畏神的明证。

代下20:15-17
他说、犹大众人、耶路撒冷的居民、和约沙法王、你们请听、耶和华对你们如此说、不要因这大军恐惧、惊惶、因为胜败不在乎你们、乃在乎神。明日你们要下去迎敌.他们是从洗斯坡上来.你们必在耶鲁伊勒旷野前的谷口遇见他们。犹大和耶路撒冷人哪、这次你们不要争战、要摆阵站着、看耶和华为你们施行拯救.不要恐惧、也不要惊惶.明日当出去迎敌.因为耶和华与你们同在。
and he said, "Listen, all Judah, and you inhabitants of Jerusalem, and you king Jehoshaphat. Thus says Yahweh to you, 'Don't be afraid, neither be dismayed by reason of this great multitude; for the battle is not yours, but God's. Tomorrow go down against them. Behold, they are coming up by the ascent of Ziz. You shall find them at the end of the valley, before the wilderness of Jeruel. You will not need to fight this battle. Set yourselves, stand still, and see the salvation of Yahweh with you, O Judah and Jerusalem. Don't be afraid, nor be dismayed. Go out against them tomorrow, for Yahweh is with you.'"
主耶稣!赐百般安慰的神,安慰以色列民,同时要以色民接受,面对挑战,并且应允以以色列民同在。主啊!有祢的应许:与我同在。我要勇敢面对生命中的每一个挑战,不再逃避,我的焦点不是胜败,我只要一个焦点就是:专注神的吩咐,照神的指示,讨神喜悦,荣耀天父。

有人来报告约沙法说、从海外亚兰〔亚兰又作以东〕那边有大军来攻击你、如今他们在哈洗逊他玛、就是隐基底。约沙法便惧怕、定意寻求耶和华.在犹大全地宣告禁食。于是犹大人聚会、求耶和华帮助.犹大各城都有人出来寻求耶和华。
Then some came who told Jehoshaphat, saying, "A great multitude is coming against you from beyond the sea from Syria. Behold, they are in Hazazon Tamar" . Jehoshaphat was alarmed, and set himself to seek to Yahweh. He proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah. Judah gathered themselves together, to seek help from Yahweh. They came out of all the cities of Judah to seek Yahweh.
主耶稣!约沙法王听见敌人来攻打,第一时间的反应是我要效法的。主啊!叫我在和平,安祥的日子,操练感恩的敬拜,在动荡不安,惧怕的时刻,我可以像约沙法王,即刻定意吩咐家人一同寻求耶和华,宣告禁食,进入神的殿,寻求神的帮助,叫神得荣耀。

8月13日 忠心诚实办事

代下19:6-7,9
对他们说、你们办事应当谨慎.因为你们判断不是为人、乃是为耶和华.判断的时候、他必与你们同在。现在你们应当敬畏耶和华.谨慎办事.因为耶和华我们的神没有不义、不偏待人、也不受贿赂。约沙法嘱咐他们说、你们当敬畏耶和华、忠心诚实办事。
and said to the judges, "Consider what you do: for you don't judge for man, but for Yahweh; and he is with you in the judgment. Now therefore let the fear of Yahweh be on you. Take heed and do it: for there is no iniquity with Yahweh our God, nor respect of persons, nor taking of bribes." He commanded them, saying, "Thus you shall do in the fear of Yahweh, faithfully, and with a perfect heart.
主耶稣!约沙法王得了教训,蒙耶和华神留下他的生命,便将耶和华神摆在面前,更加认真敬畏神。主啊!我是蒙恩得救的人,所以无论作甚么,都要从心里作,像是给主作的,不是给人作的。谨慎办事,忠心诚实办事,成为我为主而活的标志。

Also in the third year of his reign he sent his princes, even Ben Hail, and Obadiah, and Zechariah, and Nethanel, and Micaiah, to teach in the cities of Judah; They taught in Judah, having the book of the law of Yahweh with them; and they went about throughout all the cities of Judah, and taught among the people.
The fear of Yahweh fell on all the kingdoms of the lands that were around Judah, so that they made no war against Jehoshaphat.
主耶稣!耶和华的律法全备,能苏醒人心,凡照书上的吩咐去行的人,敌人都会感到不安,站立不住。主啊!我和我家都渴望得到律法书的教训,求祢的话,教训和管教,每天都临到我全家,使我家健壮

8月10日 爱上遵行耶和华神的道

代下17:3-5
耶和华与约沙法同在、因为他行他祖大卫初行的道,不寻求巴力,只寻求他父亲的神遵行他的诫命、不效法以色列人的行为。所以耶和华坚定他的国、犹大众人给他进贡.约沙法大有尊荣资财。他高兴遵行耶和华的道.并且从犹大除掉一切丘坛、和木偶。
Yahweh was with Jehoshaphat, because he walked in the first ways of his father David, and didn't seek the Baals, but sought to the God of his father, and walked in his commandments, and not after the doings of Israel. Therefore Yahweh established the kingdom in his hand; and all Judah brought to Jehoshaphat tribute; and he had riches and honor in abundance.
His heart was lifted up in the ways of Yahweh: and furthermore he took away the high places and the Asherim out of Judah.
主耶稣!因为祢的轭是容易的,祢我的担子是轻省的。因为祢的命令是清洁的,祢的法则是光明的。祢的真理叫我得自由。主啊!我爱上遵行耶和华的道。

8月9日 人软弱却没有求耶和华

代下16:10,12
亚撒因此恼恨先见、将他囚在监里。那时亚撒也虐待一些人民。亚撒作王三十九年、他脚上有病、而且甚重.病的时候没有求耶和华、只求医生。
Then Asa was angry with the seer, and put him in the prison; for he was in a rage with him because of this thing. Asa oppressed some of the people at the same time. In the thirty-ninth year of his reign Asa was diseased in his feet; his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he didn't seek Yahweh, but to the physicians.
主耶稣!我看到亚撒王起初敬虔的生命,但是,他在软弱的时刻,不听先知的劝导,一错再错,选择靠自己,不求耶和华,结果败在自己的手中。主啊!我晓得肢体中另有个律、和我心中的律交战,把我掳去叫我附从那肢体中犯罪的律。感谢神,靠着我们的主耶稣基督,我在软弱中求告耶和华,就能脱离犯罪的律。

主耶稣!心存诚实是神所喜悦的,不诚实是愚蠢的。主啊!谢谢祢的教诲,诚实人有智慧,诚实胜过一切的金银,胜过名利,大过名誉,我决定要在诚实上竭力虔心,以心灵诚实敬拜耶和华。

主耶稣!亚撒王不看祖母的情面,该除的必除。主啊!我需要一个果敢的心,不会为了顾虑人的感受,为了看人的情面,为了讨人的喜悦,而失去了方向。若是有神所不喜悦的,并且吩咐我去拔除的,我决不妥协,直到事情成就。

Saturday, August 5, 2017

8月6日 认真寻求神

代下15:12-15
他们就立约、要尽心尽性地寻求耶和华他们列祖的神. 凡不寻求耶和华以色列神的、无论大小、男女、必被治死。他们就大声欢呼、吹号吹角、向耶和华起誓。犹大众人为所起的誓欢喜.因他们是尽心起誓、尽意寻求耶和华、耶和华就被他们寻见、且赐他们四境平安。
They entered into the covenant to seek Yahweh, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and with all their soul; and that whoever would not seek Yahweh, the God of Israel, should be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. They swore to Yahweh with a loud voice, and with shouting, and with trumpets, and with cornets. All Judah rejoiced at the oath; for they had sworn with all their heart, and sought him with their whole desire; and he was found of them: and Yahweh gave them rest all around.
主耶稣!王与百姓向神认真,尽心尽力寻求神,做该做的事,耶和华神就被他们寻见。主啊!我也要向神认真,在所要做的事上寻求神,像使徒保罗一样认真,以认识基督为至宝,为基督丢弃万事,为要得着神在基督里从天上召我来的奖赏。

8月5日 不要手软

代下15:7-8
现在你们要刚强、不要手软.因你们所行的、必得赏赐。亚撒听见这话、和俄德儿子先知亚撒利雅的预言、就壮起胆来、在犹大、便雅悯全地、并以法莲山地所夺的各城、将可憎之物、尽都除掉.又在耶和华殿的廊前、重新修筑耶和华的坛。
But you be strong, and don't let your hands be slack; for your work shall be rewarded." When Asa heard these words, and the prophecy of Oded the prophet, he took courage, and put away the abominations out of all the land of Judah and Benjamin, and out of the cities which he had taken from the hill country of Ephraim; and he renewed the altar of Yahweh, that was before the porch of Yahweh.
主耶稣!关于神看为正为义为公的事,我都要勇敢去作,绝不放弃,不会因为别人的眼光,言语,行为而改变。主啊!我在奉献的事上也不手软,求主悦纳我的献祭。

8月4日 神在等人回转

代下15:1-3
神的灵感动俄德的儿子亚撒利雅.他出来迎接亚撒、对他说、亚撒和犹大便雅悯众人哪、要听我说、你们若顺从耶和华、耶和华必与你们同在.你们若寻求他、就必寻见.你们若离弃他、他必离弃你们。以色列人不信真神、没有训诲的祭司、也没有律法、已经好久了.
The Spirit of God came on Azariah the son of Oded: and he went out to meet Asa, and said to him, "Hear me, Asa, and all Judah and Benjamin! Yahweh is with you, while you are with him; and if you seek him, he will be found by you; but if you forsake him, he will forsake you. Now for a long time Israel was without the true God, and without a teaching priest, and without law.
主耶稣!以色列人虽然好久已经不信真神,也没有律法,耶和华神仍在等候以色列人回转。主啊!求感动亚撒利雅的圣灵,也感动在政界,商界,教育界,和影视传媒界有影响力的基督徒,激动他们,勇敢的说话,吩咐在上有权柄的都要听耶和华神的话。

8月3日 不怕敌人的惊吓

代下14:11-12
亚撒呼求耶和华他的神、说、耶和华阿、惟有你能帮助软弱的、胜过强盛的.耶和华我们的神阿、求你帮助我们.因为我们仰赖你、奉你的名来攻击这大军。耶和华阿、你是我们的神、不要容人胜过你。于是耶和华使古实人败在亚撒和犹大人面前.古实人就逃跑了。
Asa cried to Yahweh his God, and said, "Yahweh, there is none besides you to help, between the mighty and him who has no strength. Help us, Yahweh our God; for we rely on you, and in your name are we come against this multitude. Yahweh, you are our God. Don't let man prevail against you." So Yahweh struck the Ethiopians before Asa, and before Judah; and the Ethiopians fled.
主耶稣!敌人的军队比亚撒的军队多出一倍,亚撒向耶和华神呼求的祷告,宣告耶和华神是以色列的神,奉神的名攻击仇敌。主啊!我心中有祢,不怕对方有多强大的势力,多雄厚的财力。我宣告,耶和华是我的神,我仰赖祢和圣灵的的同在,我必得胜有余。

8月2日 耶和华赐平安

代下14:2-4,6
亚撒行耶和华他神眼中看为善为正的事.除掉外邦神的坛、和丘坛、打碎柱像、砍下木偶,吩咐犹大人寻求耶和华他们列祖的神、遵行他的律法、诫命...又在犹大建造了几座坚固城.国中太平数年、没有战争、因为耶和华赐他平安。
Asa did that which was good and right in the eyes of Yahweh his God,  for he took away the foreign altars, and the high places, and broke down the pillars, and cut down the Asherim,
and commanded Judah to seek Yahweh, the God of their fathers, and to do the law and the commandment....He built fortified cities in Judah; for the land was quiet, and he had no war in those years, because Yahweh had given him rest.
主耶稣!亚撒王行耶和华神眼中看为善为正的事,国家太平。这也是我们所渴望的太平和平安。主啊!我们当行的是除去心中的偶像,除掉柱像木偶,寻求并遵行耶和华神的律法,我们必然从祢那里得心灵的平安,我的祖国,我的家也会太平。
