敬拜让上帝如同居家

Nov 30, 2024

你(上帝)的宝座设立在以色列人的颂赞之上。(诗篇22:3)

你所住之地是你的家,或称为“居所”。因此,当你赞美上帝,你是在说:“主啊,把这当成家。”上帝住在哪里?祂有很多不同的地址,其中之一就是“赞美”。如同我们与一起生活的家人享受更深的亲密关系一样,赞美创造了我们与上帝之间亲密感的氛围。就像爱和感激的话能吸引两人在一起,赞美的话能使你更加靠近上帝。《圣经》说:“你是圣洁的,你的宝座设立在以色列人的颂赞之上。”请留意“设立宝座”这一词组。日本人将此解释得很有意思。回忆起当年皇帝曾坐在被人抬着的宝座上,四围群臣停下俯伏跪拜,他们说:“我们敬拜上帝时,就是制作一个座位,祂就会下来就坐。”在两节相连的经文中,作者五次命令我们“要颂赞”上帝。“要颂赞,颂赞上帝!要颂赞,颂赞我们的君王!因为上帝是普天下的君王,要向祂唱赞美的乐章。”(诗篇47:6-7)上帝之所以在两节经文里三番五次地重申,是因为祂要确保你明白这个信息。你可能会说:“我五音不全呀。”那就请你听听赞美的音乐,一边跟着哼唱。《诗篇》作者写道:“你的慈爱比生命更宝贵,我的嘴唇要赞美你。我一生都要赞美你,奉你的名举手祷告。”(诗篇63:3-4)
