对今日诗句的想法
神将这个承诺赐给了处在危难中的子民，而正是神允许这场危难的发生，为的是要带领他们悔改。他们的土地正因干旱、瘟疫和歉收而呈现荒芜、败坏。神却在这时应许：只要他们全心归向神，便会祝福他们。耶和华——与以色列民立约的神，会因着他们的悔改和自己的大能行奇事，拯救自己的民。土地都可以尽情欢乐，他的子民当然也应如此！我们也是！我们知道“主已为我们成就了大事”，因为——主耶稣！
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
This reassurance from God is given to a people facing desperate times — times which God caused to lead his people to repent of their evil ways. Their land was desolate and decimated by drought, plagues, and poor harvests. However, God promised to bless them if they would return to him with all their hearts. The Lord, the covenant God of Israel, promised to do great things to bring his people to deliverance through their repentance and because of God's gracious power. The land would be able to rejoice and be glad. So would his people! So should we! Part of the fulfillment of this prophecy happened in Acts 2 on the day of Pentecost when the church was born (Acts 2:22-47). We know that "the Lord has done great things" for us based on this promise.
