一个地方教会在一段困难时期得到了巨大的财务捐赠的祝福。这个教会的领袖感到神通过他们的会友给予他们极大的祝福，他们知道他们必须走出去，与周围的社区分享这种祝福。他们开始给当地的无家可归者收容所和其他他们认为可能需要援助的事工和机构打电话。很快就有几个机构能与有需要的人分享这些祝福，这是神的荣耀。
得到经济资源或健康的祝福并不是跟随神的保证。祂从未应许我们会在这个世界上过上健康和富裕的生活。但是，当神祝福我们的时候，我们就被呼召去分享祂给我们的东西，并祝福他人。当神第一次呼召亚伯拉罕时，神应许要祝福他，说因着他，全地的人都会得到祝福（创12：1-3）。
诗篇67篇是一个祷告，求神祝福祂的子民，并藉着这祝福，世界上的其他国家将因神的救赎而得到祝福，并敬畏祂。在这种情境下，敬畏被描述为对神的认识、敬拜和尊崇。这个祷告是求神祝福祂的子民，好使所有的人都能认识神，并为祂所做的一切而敬拜祂。愿这也成为我们今天的祷告。
乐意赐福的神，求你赐福与你的百姓，不是因我们的缘故，而是为了让我们能与他人分享，使所有人都能认识你，尊崇你。阿们。
诗篇 67
1愿神怜悯我们，赐福于我们，用脸光照我们，（细拉）
2好叫世界得知你的道路，万国得知你的救恩。
3神啊，愿列邦称赞你，愿万民都称赞你！
4愿万国都快乐欢呼，因为你必按公正审判万民，引导世上的万国。（细拉）
5神啊，愿列邦称赞你，愿万民都称赞你！
6地已经出了土产，神，就是我们的神，要赐福于我们。7神要赐福于我们，地的四极都要敬畏他。
"May God bless us still, so that all the ends of the earth will fear him." - Psalm 67:7
A local congregation was blessed by great financial giving throughout a difficult time. The leaders of this church felt so blessed by God through their members that they knew they had to reach out and share this blessing with the community around them. They began calling local homeless shelters and other ministries and organizations that they thought might need assistance. And soon several organizations were able to share those blessings with people in need—to the glory of God.
Being blessed with financial resources or good health isn’t a guarantee from following God. He never promises that we will live healthy and wealthy lives on this earth. But when God does bless us, we are called to share what God has given us and bless others. When God first called Abraham, God promised to bless him, saying that through him all the peoples on earth would be blessed (Genesis 12:1-3).
Psalm 67 is a prayer asking God to bless his people so that through that blessing, the other nations of the world would be blessed with God’s salvation and fear him. In this setting, fear is described in terms of knowledge, worship, and adoration of God. This prayer asks God to bless his people so that all people may come to know God and worship him for all he has done. Let that be our prayer today as well.
Blessing God, bless your people not for our sake but so that we can share with others, that all may come to know and honor you. Amen.
