WHAT SHALL
I RENDER UNTO THE LORD FOR ALL HIS BENEFITS TOWARD ME?
PSALMS 116:12 “What
shall I render unto the Lord [for] all his benefits toward me?”
Introduction:
a. Render – to lay down; to bring back; to deliver; to give
b. Napakagandang halimbawa ang pagpapahayag ni Haring David ng kanyang
malaking pagnanais na magbalik sa Diyos ng maraming dakilang kabutihan sa
kanyang buhay.
c. Kung lahat ng Kristiyano sana ay kagaya ni Haring David, napakaganda
ng patotoo ng iglesya lokal sa kanilang komunidad na kinalalagyan sapagkat ang
Kristiyano ay magpapakita at magbabalik sa Diyos ng maraming mabubuting bagay
dahil sa mga dakilang pagpapala na tinanggap nila sa Diyos.
PSALMS 116:12 “What
shall I render unto the Lord [for] all his benefits toward me?”
Maraming mabubuting bagay ang maaari nating ibalik sa lahat ng kabutihan
ng Diyos sa ating buhay:
1. WE CAN RENDER OUR FAITHFULNESS TO WORSHIPING GOD
PSALMS 122:1 “I was
glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord.”
a. Magandang huwaran si Haring David sa kanyang pagiging masigla at
masaya sa kanyang pagsamba sa Panginoon.
b. Lalong nagpakita nang lubos-lubos na katapatan sa pagsamba ang
iglesya lokal ng Jerusalem dahil sa kanilang araw-araw na pananambahan sa
Diyos.
ACTS 2:46 “And
they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from
house to house, did eat their meat with gladness and singleness of heart,”
c. Lalong pinagpapala ang matatapat at nagpapakita na inuuna nila ang
Diyos sa kanilang buhay.
MATTHEW 6:33 “But
seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things
shall be added unto you.”
2. WE CAN RENDER OUR FAITHFULNESS IN GIVING TO GOD.
MALACHI 3:10 “Bring
ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house,
and prove me now herewith, saith the Lord of hosts, if I will not open you the
windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that [there shall] not [be
room] enough [to receive it].”
a. Maraming Kristiyano ang nasusumpungan na hindi matapat sa Panginoon
kagaya ng bayan ng Israel na laging nagkakasala sa hindi pagsasauli ng ikapu sa
Diyos.
MALACHI 3:8 “Will a
man rob God? Yet ye have robbed me. But ye say, Wherein have we robbed thee? In
tithes and offerings.”
b. Mas lalong natutuwa ang Diyos sa mga Kristiyano na lalong nagtatapat
sa pagbibigay.
ACTS 20:35 “I have
shewed you all things, how that so labouring ye ought to support the weak, and
to remember the words of the Lord Jesus, how he said, It is more blessed to
give than to receive.”
c. Lalong nagiging malapit ang puso ng Diyos sa mga Kristiyanong
nagbibigay mula sa kanilang puso.
2 CORINTHIANS 9:7 “Every
man according as he purposeth in his heart, [so let him give]; not grudgingly,
or of necessity: for God loveth a cheerful giver.”
3. WE CAN RENDER OUR FAITHFULNESS IN OUR SERVICE TO GOD
HEBREWS 3:5 “And
Moses verily [was] faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of
those things which were to be spoken after;”
a. Hinangaan ng Diyos si Moises dahil sa kanyang katapatan sa
paglilingkod.
b. Inihalintulad ng Diyos ang katapatan sa paglilingkod ni Moises sa
katapatan ng Panginoong Hesus. Ang katapatan ng Kristiyano ay maaaring
maihalintulad sa ating Panginoon.
HEBREWS 3:1-2 “Wherefore,
holy brethren, partakers of the heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High
Priest of our profession, Christ Jesus;
Heb 3:2 Who was faithful to him that
appointed him, as also Moses [was faithful] in all his house.”
4. WE CAN RENDER OUR FAITHFULNESS IN PRAYER TO GOD
DANIEL 6:9-13 “Wherefore
king Darius signed the writing and the decree.”
Dan 6:10 Now when Daniel knew that
the writing was signed, he went into his house; and his windows being open in
his chamber toward Jerusalem, he kneeled upon his knees three times a day, and
prayed, and gave thanks before his God, as he did aforetime.
Dan 6:11 Then these men assembled,
and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God.
Dan 6:12 Then they came near, and
spake before the king concerning the king’s decree; Hast thou not signed a
decree, that every man that shall ask [a petition] of any God or man within
thirty days, save of thee, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions? The
king answered and said, The thing [is] true, according to the law of the Medes
and Persians, which altereth not.
5. WE CAN RENDER OUR FAITHFULNESS IN FULFILLING THE GREAT COMMISSION OF
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
MATTHEW 28:19-20 “Go ye
therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and
of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Mt 28:20 Teaching them to observe
all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway,
[even] unto the end of the world. Amen.”
a. Dakilang huwaran ang ating Panginoong Jesucristo.
LUKE 19:10 “For the
Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.”
1 CORINTHIANS 9:19-22 “For
though I be free from all [men], yet have I made myself servant unto all, that
I might gain the more.”
* God bless you all*
