Let God's Salvation Save You from Fear
Let God's Salvation Save You from Fear
让神的救赎从恐惧中拯救你
"The Lord is my light and my salvation. I will fear no one." (Psalm 27:1 GNT)
耶和华是我的亮光，是我的拯救， 我还怕谁呢？ 耶和华是我性命的保障， 我还惧谁呢？诗篇27：1
I love the way my wife Kay watches horror movies. If something like Alien comes on television, she turns on every light in the room and sometimes pulls up the comforter to cover her eyes. Would she watch a horror movie in the total dark? Absolutely not. Many of you won't, either, because light helps you see things more clearly.
我喜欢我妻子看恐怖电影的方式。如果有什么像《异形》这样的电影在电视里播放，她会打开房间里的每个灯并且有时拉起被子遮住她的眼睛。她会总在黑暗里看恐怖电影吗？绝对不会。许多人也不会，因为光能使我们看事情更加清楚。
David says in Psalm 27:1, "The Lord is my light and my salvation. I will fear no one" (GNT). God is described in two ways: as light and as salvation.
大卫在诗篇27：1说“ 耶和华是我的亮光，是我的拯救， 我还怕谁呢？ ”神被描绘为亮光和拯救。
Yet many Christians live their lives in fear of rejection, completely ignoring the fact that if God is our salvation, then we have nothing to fear - not even losing the approval of those around us.
然而许多的基督徒他们生活在害怕被拒绝的恐惧中，完全的忽略了神是我的拯救这样的事实，所以我们没有使命害怕的—甚至失去我们身旁的人认可也无需害怕。
Living for the approval of others is a miserable way to live. It will cripple your life.
生在他人的认可中是可怜的生活方式。他会削减你所生命。
But God is your light and salvation!
神是你的亮光和救赎！
Light does three things: It illuminates and lets you see things more clearly. It protects and provides a source of security. And, it energizes you.
光可以做三件事：照明和让你更清楚的看清事。保护你是你安全的保障。还有，它激励你。
David is saying in Psalm 27 that his relationship with God has the same three effects as light, so he's not going to be afraid. Do you have a relationship with God like that? If you don't, you're probably susceptible to the fear of rejection.
大卫在诗篇27篇说他和神的关系如同光的三种作用一样，这样他就不再惧怕。你和神的关系是这样的吗？如果不是，你可能很容易害怕被拒绝。
To overcome the fear of rejection, you have to realize that the Lord is your light and salvation, not anyone else. Don't look for anybody else to brighten up your day. Don't look for anybody else to save your life. The Lord is your light and salvation. Don't be afraid!
要战胜害怕被拒绝，你必须认识到神是你的亮光和救赎，不是其他的。不要指望别人来照亮你的每一天。不要指望任何人来拯救你的生命。神是你的亮光和救赎。不要害怕！
What does God save you from? Psalm 119:39-42 says, "Save me from the insults I fear ... I want to obey Your commands ... Show me how much you love me, Lord, and save me according to your promise. Then I can answer those who insult me."
神从什么里面拯救你？诗篇119：39-42说“求你使我所怕的羞辱远离我， 因你的典章本为美。 我羡慕你的训词； 求你使我在你的公义上生活！耶和华啊，愿你照你的话，使你的慈爱， 就是你的救恩，临到我身上。”
Here's the thing: There is no fear in love. When you understand how deeply God loves you, it will simplify your life. It will illuminate, protect, and energize you. Bask in the light of God's love. Let it save you from a lifetime of fear.
这就是“在爱中没有惧怕。当你懂得神如何深深的爱你时，它会简化你的生活。它会光照，保护和鼓励你‘。沐浴在神的爱中，让它救你终身的恐惧。
Talk About It
思考一下
* If you trusted your salvation to save you from daily fear, what would that look like in your life?
* 如果你相信你的救赎从你每天的恐惧中拯救你，你的生命会如何？
* When you make decisions this week, ask yourself, 'Am I making this decision through my fear, or am I making it through my trust of Jesus'?
* 当你在这周做决定时，问问你自己，“我做这样的决定时是否带着恐惧，或者我做这样的决定是我相信耶稣？”
