Victorious King David
全新四年樂活讀經
經文: 歷代志上 18:13-17 大衛在以東地設立防營，以東人就都歸服他。大衛無論往那裡去，耶和華都使他得勝。大衛作以色列眾人的王，又向眾民秉公行義。洗魯雅的兒子約押作元帥；亞希律的兒子約沙法作史官；亞希突的兒子撒督和亞比亞他的兒子亞希米勒作祭司長；沙威沙作書記；耶何耶大的兒子比拿雅統轄基利提人和比利提人。大衛的眾子都在王的左右作領袖。
默想: 本段經文讓我們看到大衛王必須經過南征北討的慘烈戰爭，才能過建立他富強的國度。大衛王得到耶和華的祝福與保守，讓他每次出師都凱旋而歸。大衛王所統治的版圖也因此擴展，大衛在各個被他征服的地區設立防營。大衛在國內治理百姓是秉公行義。大衛王還授權他手下的文武百官、宗教歷史，都有人負責。如此才能夠建立一個可強可久的國度。求主幫助和平教會，能夠學習大衛的榜樣，奮力拓展上帝的國度，依照個人的恩賜，建立完善的組織制度。好讓和平教會能夠在上帝面前，蒙神悅納與祝福。
題目: 彌迦書說「伸張正義，實行不變的愛，謙卑地跟我們的上帝同行。」(彌6:8)而大衛正是「秉公行義」治理以色列民(v14)。試問平民百姓的我們，如何實踐這裡所說的「秉公行義」？
18:1 此後，大衛攻打非利士人，把他們治服，從他們手下奪取了迦特和屬迦特的村莊；
