【向神回转求主复兴】

主讲: 李洪兴牧师 + 陈炎明牧师

30/12/2021


引言:

本篇诗人亚萨四次呼求回转,三次是使我们回转的祷告3,7,19节,一次是求神转向我们。求神彰显大能,拯救选脱离仇敌。

一、向神回转求神拯救(V1-3)

回转:原文有复兴之意。 使你的脸发光 :是恩待和宠爱的象征。

求你使我们回转: 向我们显明你的爱,这里不单是民族复兴的呼求,更是灵里的复兴,

二、向神回转求神息怒(V4-7)

「万军之神」原文是「众多军队的神」,形容神是大能的神。神的百姓被掳走,绝不是偶然,更不是神不能、不愿「眷顾」而是神向悖逆的百姓「发怒」(V4)的结果。

三、向神回转求神垂看(V8-16)

葡萄树是指以色列人说的:赶出外邦人,把这树栽上。指神领以色列人进迦南占领了整个迦南。

「为何拆毁这树的篱笆,任凭一切过路的人摘取」12节因他们不信服耶和华——随从虚无的神,效法周围的外邦人祭拜偶像,还为自己铸了两个牛犊的像,立了亚舍拉,敬拜天上的万象,事奉巴力,又使他们的儿女经火,(王下十七14-17)。

因此只有当神「拆毁这树的篱笆」(V12)、撤去祂的保护的时候,离弃神的百姓才能知道自己靠不住、偶像靠不住、盟国也靠不住,唯有神是他们的保障。

四、向神回转得见神面(V17-19)

「回转」是圣灵的工作圣灵催逼「回转」的人,但是人也要认识靠自己,「立志为善由得我,只是行出来由不得我」(罗七18),凭着肉身想回转的时候,很快有许多难处拦阻我们:肉体的败坏、世界的诱惑、撒但的阻挠,只有靠着圣灵的大能来到神的面前。

总结:

诗人亚萨描述百姓犯罪遭受管教,落入苦难的环境。诗人看到这种光景呼吁百姓回转归向神不要白白受苦,帮助百姓从苦难中学到教训,不能白白受苦丢掉生命。还告诉我们,当我们经历了苦难时,要求“神啊,求你回转!从天上垂看”使你的脸发光,光照我们便要得救。

Psalm 80: Turn to God and ask the Lord for revival
GK611 Morning Devotion
30/12/2021
Speaker: Rev Moses Li + Rev David Tan

Introduction:

The psalmist Asaph cries out four times in this Psalm, three times in the prayer to turn us back in verses 3, 7, and 19, and once in the prayer to ask God to turn to us. Ask God to show His power and save the chosen ones from the enemy.

1. Turn to God and Ask Him to Save (V1-3)

Restore: the original text has the meaning of revival. [Cause Your face to shine]: a symbol of favor and affection. Turn us back: show us your love. Here is not only a cry for national revival, but also spiritual revival.

2. Turn to God and Ask Him to calm His anger (V4-7)

The original word “Lord God of Hosts” means “God of many armies”, which describes God as a mighty God. The captivity of God’s people was not an accident, nor was it the result of God’s inability or unwillingness to “look out for” the rebellious people (v 4).

3. Turn to God and Ask God to watch (V8-16)

The vine refers to the Israelites who said, "Cast out the Gentiles and plant this tree. It refers to God leading the Israelites into Canaan to occupy all of Canaan. "Why have You broken down her [g]hedges, So that all who pass by the way pluck her fruit?" verse 12 because they did not believe in the LORD their God. - they followed idols, became idolaters, and went after the nations who were all around them,made for themselves a molded image and two calves, made a wooden image and worshiped all the host of heaven, and served Baal. 17 And they caused their sons and daughters to pass through the fire, (2 Kings 17:14-17).

Therefore, it was only when God " broken down her hedges," (v. 12), and removed His protection, that the people who had forsaken God knew that they could not rely on themselves, nor on their idols, nor on their allies, but that God alone was their security.

4. Turn to God to See the Face of God (V17-19)

Turning back" is the work of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit compels those who "turn back", but man must also recognize that he depends on himself, "for to will is present with me, but how to perform what is good I do not find." (Rom. 7:18). When we try to turn back in the flesh, there are many difficulties that soon stop us: the corruption of the flesh, the temptation of the world, and the obstruction of Satan, and we can only come to God by the power of the Holy Spirit.

Conclusion:

The psalmist Asaph describes the circumstances in which the people sinned and suffered discipline, and fell into misery. The psalmist saw this situation and called the people to turn to God and not to suffer in vain, and helped them to learn from their suffering that they should not suffer and lose their lives in vain. He also tells us that when we go through suffering, we should ask, "O God, turn back! Look down from heaven" so that Cause Your face to shine,And we shall be saved!
