Where the Blessing Is.”(축복이 있는 곳)

♡ “오늘의 성경”(Today's Scripture) ♡

1. 읽을말씀 : 시편 133편 1절~3절
(Psalm 133:1~3, AMP)

“1 보라 형제가 연합하여 동거함이
어찌 그리 선하고 아름다운고

2 머리에 있는 보배로운 기름이 수염 곧 아론의 수염에
흘러서 그의 옷깃까지 내림 같고

3 헐몬의 이슬이 시온의 산들에 내림 같도다 거기서
여호와께서 복을 명령하셨나니 곧 영생이로다”

“1 Behold, / how good / and how pleasant /
it is for brethren / [to dwell together / in unity]!

2 It is like the precious ointment /
[poured / on the head], / [that ran down
/ on the beard, / even the beard / of Aaron
/ [the first high priest]], / [that came down
/ upon the collar / and skirts / of his garments
/ [consecrating the whole body]].

3 It is like the dew / of [lofty] Mount Hermon
/ and the dew / [that comes / on the hills /
of Zion] ; for there / the Lord has commanded
the blessing, / even life forevermore
/ [upon the high and the lowly].”

2. 제목 : “Where the Blessing Is.”(축복이 있는 곳)

So many people today desire God’s blessing in their lives which is great! However, did you know that He commands blessing on us when we are at peace with the people around us?

오늘날 많은 사람들이 삶에서 하나님의 축복을 원합니다. 정말 좋은 일입니다! 하지만 주변 사람들과 평화롭게 지낼 때 하나님께서 우리에게 축복을 명령하신다는 것을 알고 계셨나요?


As believers, we are called to work together in unity so that we can fulfill God’s purposes. We are called to serve one another in love and serve together in the house of the Lord. Is there someone in your life that you don’t quite get along with? The Bible says to pray for that person and go out of your way to be a blessing to them. It isn’t easy, but the reward
is eternal. His blessing is everlasting.

신자로서 우리는 하나님의 목적을 성취하기 위해 연합하여 함께 일하도록 부름을 받았습니다. 우리는 사랑으로 서로를 섬기고 주님의 집에서 함께 섬기도록 부름을 받았습니다. 당신의 삶 속에 잘 지내지 못하는 사람이 있습니까? 성경은 그 사람을 위해 기도하고 그들에게 축복이 되기 위해 최선을 다하라고 말합니다. 쉽지는 않지만 보상은 영원합니다. 그분의 축복은 영원합니다.

Make the decision today to live in peace and unity with the people around you. Look for common ground. Even if the only thing you can agree on is Jesus, focus on that! Focus on the love you have for God and for seeing people come to know Him. Live together in unity and open the door to see His blessing in every area of your life.

오늘 주변 사람들과 평화롭고 연합하여 살기로 결정하세요. 공통점을 찾으세요. 당신이 동의할 수 있는 유일한 것이 예수님뿐이라 하더라도, 그것에 집중하세요! 하나님과 사람들이 그분을 알게 되는 것을 보는 것에 대한 사랑에 집중하세요. 연합하여 함께 살고 삶의 모든 영역에서 그분의 축복을 볼 수 있는 문을 여세요.


3. '오늘'을 위한 '기도' (Prayer for Today)

“Father in heaven, search my heart today and see if there is anything that is keeping me from walking in unity with other believers. I choose love today. I choose peace. Help me to be an example of love to those around me in Jesus’ name. Amen. God Bless You!”
“하늘에 계신 아버지, 오늘 제 마음을 살펴보시고 다른 신자들과 연합하여 걷는 것을 막는 것이 있는지 살펴보십시오. 저는 오늘 사랑을 선택합니다. 저는 평화를 선택합니다. 예수님의 이름으로 주변 사람들에게 사랑의 모범이 되도록 도와주세요. 아멘. 신의 축복이 있기를!”
