호성기 목사님 QT나눔_9월 6일 QT_심판자 주님께 맡기고 기다려라 (시 119:73–88)
‘심판자 주님께 맡기고 기다려라’
1. 본문 관찰과 묵상
민족적인 바벨론 포로의 고통을 겪은 시편기자 는 개인적인 원수들의 공격에도 “토라” 인 말씀만 의지 한다. 주의 구원을 사모하며 수치를 당해도 주님께 맡기고 끝까지 기다린다.
2. QT를 통해 듣는 주님의 음성
포기하고 싶을 때가 바로 “토라” 를 믿고 주님께 염려 근심을 맡길 때다. 주가 수치에서 구원하신다.
3. 결단과 적용
풀무불에 던져졌던 3친구는 하나님이 구원하실 줄 믿었으나 “그리 아니 하실지라도” 의 믿음으로 주님께 삶을 맡겼다. 4번째의 사람, 예수 그리스도가 함께 함으로 구원하였다.
오늘의 기도
“아무것도 염려하지 말고 다만 모든 일에 기도와 간구 로 너희 구할 것을 감사함으로 하나님께 아뢰라 그리하면 모든 지각 에 뛰어난 하나님의 평강이 그리스도 예수안에서 너희 마음과 생각 을 지키시리라” (빌 4:6-7). 예수님의 이름으로 기도합니다. 아멘.
‘Wait until the Lord judges’
Ps. 119:73–88
1. Observation and meditation on the text
The psalmist, who may have lived during the Babylonian captivity as a member of the Jewish community, was also suffering because of his personal enemies. Nevertheless, he continued to rely on God’s Word—the Torah, or the Pentateuch. Despite the insults, ridicule, and persecution he endured, he declared that he would wait for God’s salvation and remain fully dependent on His law.
2. I hear the voice of the Lord through QT
The Lord reminds me that I must rely on His Word, especially when I am tempted to give up. Even when I experience shame, criticism, or discouragement, I can trust that the Lord will sustain me and ultimately deliver me.
3. Decisions and applications
The three friends who were thrown into the fiery furnace trusted that God was able to deliver them. Yet they also declared, “Even if He does not, we will not serve your gods” (Daniel 3:18). Their faith did not depend on the outcome; they chose to serve the Lord alone and remain faithful to Him. The fourth man, who looked like a son of the gods and was understood to be a manifestation of Jesus Christ, appeared with them in the fire and delivered them. Like these three faithful servants, I will rely on the Lord alone and wait patiently for His timing and salvation.
Today's Prayer
“Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:6–7). Lord, help me to trust Your Word and wait for Your deliverance. When I feel discouraged or tempted to give up, strengthen my faith and keep my heart steadfast. Help me to serve You faithfully, regardless of the circumstances or outcome. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.
