你必得能力-第327章
“你们要靠主常常喜乐。我再说,你们要喜乐”(腓4:4)。[1]

Rejoice in the Lord alway: and again I say, Rejoice.Philippians 4:4.{YRP 334.1}[1]
你必得能力-第327章
务要祷告,恳切而不住地祷告,但也不可忘记了赞美。上帝的每个儿女都当辩证祂的品性。你们可以尊主为大;你们可以表扬扶持之恩的大能。千万的人们不感激上帝的大爱及耶稣的神圣慈怜。在救赎计划上所表现无比的恩典,竟被千万的人们看轻。一切同得这伟大救恩的人,现今还不明白这件事。他们没有培养感恩的心。但救赎的主题乃是天使也愿意详细察看的;是永恒不息的岁月中得赎之民的诗歌与科学。难道这事现今不值得详细思考研究吗?我们岂可不用心灵及声音来赞美“祂向人所行的奇事”呢(诗107:8)?{YRP 334.1}[2]
你必得能力-第327章
Pray, pray earnestly and without ceasing, but do not forget to praise. It becomes every child of God to vindicate His character. You can magnify the Lord; you can show the power of sustaining grace. There are multitudes who do not appreciate the great love of God nor the divine compassion of Jesus. Thousands even regard with disdain the matchless grace shown in the plan of redemption. All who are partakers of this great salvation are not clear in this matter. They do not cultivate grateful hearts. But the theme of redemption is one that the angels desire to look into; it will be the science and the song of the ransomed throughout the ceaseless ages of eternity. Is it not worthy of careful thought and study now? Should we not praise God with heart and soul and voice “for His wonderful works to the children of men” (Psalm 107:8)?{YRP 334.2}[2]

当在主子民的会中赞美祂。古时当主的话传给希伯来人时曾命令说:“愿众民都说,阿们。”当约柜运进大卫城,扬起快乐得胜之歌时,“众民都说,阿们,并且赞美耶和华”(代上16:36)。这种热烈的响应是证明他们明白那所说的话,并且参加敬拜上帝。{YRP 334.2}[3]

Praise the Lord in the congregation of His people. When the word of the Lord was spoken to the Hebrews anciently, the command was: “And let all the people say, Amen” (Psalm 106:48). When the ark of the covenant was brought into the city of David, and a psalm of joy and triumph was chanted, “all the people said, Amen, and praised the Lord” (1 Chronicles 16:36). This fervent response was an evidence that they understood the word spoken and joined in the worship of God.{YRP 334.3}[3]

今日在我们的宗教聚会上,太过于拘泥形式了。主甚愿祂的传道人在讲道时有祂圣灵之助而活泼起来;也愿听众不要昏昏欲睡坐着漠不关心,或是茫然呆视,对所说的话毫无反应。这种印象不会使非信徒喜欢基督的宗教。这些迟钝粗心的自称为基督徒者在从事世俗事务时,并不欠缺雄心和热情;可是对于有关永恒重要之事,倒不深受感动。上帝藉其使者所发之声,也许是一首动听的诗歌;但其中的圣洁警告,责备,及鼓励,却全未受人注意。属世的心意已麻木了他们。圣经的真理是传给发沉的耳朵,及刚硬无反应的心了。教会应当大大警觉活跃起来,鼓励及支持基督的传道人,在救灵之工上赞助他们。教会若行在光明中,就必时常有那愉快的诚心响应,和欢乐的赞美之声了。(5T 317,318){YRP 334.3}[4]
你必得能力-第327章
There is too much formality in our religious services. The Lord would have His ministers who preach the Word energized by His Holy Spirit; and the people who hear should not sit in drowsy indifference, or stare vacantly about, making no responses to what is said. The impression that is thus given to the unbeliever is anything but favorable for the religion of Christ. These dull, careless professed Christians are not destitute of ambition and zeal when engaged in worldly business; but things of eternal importance do not move them deeply. The voice of God through His messengers may be a pleasant song; but its sacred warnings, reproofs, and encouragements are all unheeded. The Spirit of the world has paralyzed them. The truths of God’s Word are spoken to leaden ears and hard, unimpressible hearts. There should be wide-awake, active churches to encourage and uphold the ministers of Christ and to aid them in the work of saving souls. Where the church is walking in the light, there will ever be cheerful, hearty responses and words of joyful praise.—Testimonies for the Church 5:317, 318.{YRP 334.4}[4]
