詩 96:1-7
1你們要向耶和華唱新歌!全地都要向耶和華歌唱!
2要向耶和華歌唱,稱頌他的名!天天傳揚他的救恩!
3在列邦中述說他的榮耀!在萬民中述說他的奇事!
4因耶和華為大,當受極大的讚美;他在萬神之上,當受敬畏。
5外邦的神都屬虛無;惟獨耶和華創造諸天。
6有尊榮和威嚴在他面前;有能力與華美在他聖所。
7民中的萬族啊,你們要將榮耀、能力歸給耶和華,都歸給耶和華!
Psalm 96:1-7
1Oh, sing to the Lord a new song!Sing to the Lord, all the earth.
2 Sing to the Lord, bless His name;Proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day.
3 Declare His glory among the nations,His wonders among all peoples.
4 For the Lord is great and greatly to be praised;He is to be feared above all gods.
5 For all the gods of the peoples are idols,But the Lord made the heavens.
6 Honor and majesty are before Him;Strength and beauty are in His sanctuary.
7 Give to the Lord, O families of the peoples,

The poet couldn’t help but singing a new song of praise to our Lord when thinking about the amazing works the Lord has done - He reigns and has renewed everything. More than that, the poet also eagerly invites all the beloved children of God to sing and praise God together with him (“Bless His name; proclaim the good news of His salvation from day to day. Declare His glory among the nations; His wonders among all peoples.”)
Are we like the poet, whose heart is full of praises and thanksgivings for the amazing love and grace of our Lord? Are we willing to lift up His Holy name and proclaim the good news of His salvation anytime and anywhere?
Hallelujah! Jehovah is the only true God above all gods. He is greatly to be praised!
此篇詩人想到耶和華 神的奇妙作為 ── 祂作王掌權了,祂也使一切都更新了,詩人就情不自禁地向 神唱出這首讚美的新歌,而且他熱切地邀請所有蒙恩、蒙愛的兒女,一起來歌唱、讚美 神 ──「稱頌祂的名,天天傳揚祂的救恩,在列邦中述說祂的榮耀!在萬民中述說祂的奇事!」。
我們是否也像詩人一樣,對 神的奇恩妙愛,心中充滿了感激和讚嘆呢?我們是否願意隨時隨處,高舉耶和華的聖名;宣揚祂的救恩呢?
哈利路亞!惟有耶和華是獨一的真 神,在萬 神之上,當受大讚美!

我們的人生並非完美無缺,但是 神賜給我們一個恩典,就是在我們裡面有一個不是從天然人而來的信心,使我們可以不(一直)定睛於失敗和痛苦,並且轉向 神的所是 (Who He is)和所做 (What He has done),進而向祂發出讚美。「讚美」是我們要用意志揀選的行動,來宣揚 神的自己並祂大能的作為,把祂當得的榮耀歸給祂。
We can hardly live a perfect life, but we can live a surpassing one with the heavenly faith received through God’s grace. Through faith we will be able to turn our eyes from difficult circumstances and focus on who He is and what He has done. Once we turn our eyes back to God, our praise to Him will flow out of us naturally. However, it is usually not our habit to do so. We ought to exercise our will consciously and intentionally to praise Him. May the Spirit help us to proclaim His name and wonderful deeds, and “ascribe to Him the glory due His name”.
