《今日靈修默想》:「聖哉!聖哉!聖哉!主神是昔在、今在、以後永在的全能者!」(啟4:8)

默想一:三一真神為什麼配得我們的敬拜、讚美與感謝?因為祂是至聖至潔、無所不能、永存永在的神。主再來之前,天地都要廢去,世界都要變成過去,地上所有的活動將消失,但我們對真神的敬拜是直到天上還會持續到永永遠遠,這是神造我們的目的。

默想二:每到主日上教會才算敬拜神嗎?真正的敬拜不在乎禮拜儀式,也不在主日規定的時間裡,乃是在每日的生活裡。我們平常做在神身上的任何事就是我們對神的敬拜,這就是敬拜是事奉的意義。我們所信的是全知、全能、全在的神,無論何時何地,只要我們用心靈和誠實敬拜,祂必悅納(約4:24)

禱告:天父上帝,感謝祢。因祢創造、救贖與啟示,讓我因信耶穌基督成為敬拜祢的兒女。求祢教導我如何操練平日的敬拜生活,也操練與眾教會的弟兄姊妹一起敬拜,因為到時在神國裡,我們將與萬國萬民齊來敬拜讚美主。奉耶穌基督的名禱告,阿們!

《Today’s spiritual meditation》:  “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who was, and is, and is to come.” (Rev 4:8)

Meditation one: Why is the Triune God worthy of our worship, praise and thankfulness? It is because He is the God who is holy and pure, almighty, and eternal. Before the Lord returns, the heavens and earth will pass away, the world will be abolished, and all the activities on the earth will perish, but our worship of the true God will last all the way to the heaven forever and ever. This is the purpose that God created us.

Meditation two: Does worshiping God only happen every Sunday at church? True worship is not limited to the forms or the designated hours of the Lord’s Day, but happens in every day’s life. Anything we usually do for God is our worship of God. This is the meaning of ministry as worship. What we believe in is the God Who is omniscient, almighty, and all. Whenever and wherever, as we worship in spirit and truth, He will be pleased. (Joh 4:24)

Prayer: God heavenly Father, thank You. Because of Your creation, salvation, and revelation, I become Your child and worship You through my faith in Jesus Christ. Please teach me how to exercise my daily worship life, and to exercise the worship with the brothers and sisters of all the churches. In the kingdom of God, we will come to worship and praise the Lord with people from all nations and tribes. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!
