WORD
信息
When David was a shepherd boy, his father asked him to take lunch to his brothers out on the battlefield. When he arrived, he heard Goliath taunting and challenging the people of God. David asked the men standing around, “What is the prize for defeating this giant?” They said, “The reward is one of the king’s daughters in marriage and no more taxes.” That got David’s attention. He knew this was a battle worth fighting.
When David’s older brother, Eliab, heard him talking about fighting the giant, he tried to embarrass him. In front of all those men Eliab said, “David, what are you doing out here? And what have you done with those few sheep our father left you with?” He tried to make him feel small. He was saying, “David, you’re not important. You’ll never do anything great.” But I love the way David responded. The Scripture says that David turned and walked away from Eliab. I believe one of the main reasons that David was a champion is because he knew which battles to fight. He knew to turn away from discouraging voices so he could focus his energy on the real battle.
Today, what are the discouraging voices coming against you? Choose to turn away from those distractions so you can turn toward the victory God has in store for you!
當大衛還是牧羊童時，他父親吩咐他帶午餐到戰場給哥哥們。當他到達時，聽到歌利亞正在辱罵和挑戰上帝的子民。大衛詢問站在身旁的人說，"打敗這巨人的獎賞是什麼？"他們說，"獎賞是與王的其中一個女兒結婚和免稅。"那吸引了大衛的注意。他知道這是值得戰鬥的戰役。
當大衛的哥哥，以利押，聽到他說要與巨人打鬥時，便試圖使他難堪。在眾人面前，以利押說："大衛，你在這裡做什麼？你怎麼安置父親留下與你在一起的那幾隻羊？"他試圖讓大衛覺得渺小。他說："大衛，你不要狂妄自大。你絕不會做任何大事。"但是我喜歡大衛的反應方式。經上說大衛轉身離開以利押。我相信大衛為優勝者的主要原因之一是因為他知道打那一種戰。他知道要轉離令人沮喪的聲音以便能將精力專注在實際的戰役。
今日，什麼樣令人沮喪的聲音對你不利呢？選擇轉離分散注意的事物，如此你就能朝向上帝為你所儲備的勝利！
