552 中翻英 (252)        David is a man after God's heart.    大衛是合乎上帝心意的人.      10/15/2023  

十月十五日的晨曦默思顯示大衛為什麼犯重罪後, 仍為信靠基督的人稱為他是"合乎上帝心意的人."  雖然他在年老時犯肉體情慾, 及殺人等罪, 為何仍能在聖經中記載稱為"合乎上帝心意的人."    

「 ...... 我主大衛王的國位 ....」（王上   1:37 新國際版）

以色列民滿了情感的來稱呼：「我王大衛」。這是因為大衛全人的每一部份都滿有王的气質。當他在曠野牧養他父親羊群的時候，他奉耶和華的名赶逐獅子和熊，這表現說出他在曠野時已經是王了。以后歌利亞前來罵陣，恐嚇以色列民，甚至連掃羅也惊惶失措，百姓則更不用說了（撒上17:11）；但大衛卻仍然毫無恐懼，一個君王的心，該是沒有懼怕的。他還有更超越的表現，就是當他在曠野逃難的時候，忽然發現那追赶他的掃羅落在他的手里，但他卻堅決的拒絕殺害他，而宁愿犧牲一個可能獲得迅速自救的机會。這實在是作王的表現。因凡不能管治自己之靈的人，就不能作王。一個真正的王，乃在任何環境之下，都有王者的表現。他無論在何處，都是掌權的。

"..... The throne of my lord King David ...." (1 Kings 1:37 NIV)

The people Israel with full emotion called him,  "My beloved king David." This is because every part of David’s charateristic was filled with kingly qualities. When he was tending his father's flock in the wilderness, he drove out lions and bears in the name of the Lord, which showed that he was already a king in the wilderness. Later, Goliath came to threaten the Israelites. Even Saul was terrfied, and more to Israelites (1 Sam. 17:11); but David still had no fear. The heart of a king should be nothing to fear. He also had showed more transcendent performance, when he was fleeing from Saul  in the wilderness, by chance he found Saul falling into his hands once, but he decided not to kill him, preferring to loss a chance that he might be able to quickly save himself.  This shows him truly a kingship. For whoever cannot rule his own spirit cannot be a king to reign his country. A true king behaves ecverthings as he is a king in anyway.  He reigns in wherever he is.
