Four Truths About God That Should Bring Us Comfort
关于神四个应许带给我们安慰的真理

Nineveh and Assyria, were the top regional powers at that time and Nahum was called to prophesy against them, but he was much more than a bringer of doom and gloom, his name means comfort and his prophesy about the end of these two godless powers, was to bring great comfort to Judah.
尼尼微和亚述当时是地区霸主，那鸿蒙召向他们说预言，但他远不止是带来厄运与阴郁的人，他的名字意为“安慰”，他关于这两个不敬虔政权灭亡的预言，正是要带给犹大极大的安慰。

Now you probably wont find many devotions on the book of Nahum, these are the clean pages of the bible, but this verse is so wonderful.
你可能找不到太多关于那鸿书的灵修，这些是圣经里“干净”的书页，但这一节经文却如此美好。

It teaches us four truths:
它教导我们四个真理：

God is good, don’t we know it. Every day he showers us with blessings
神是良善的，我们岂不知吗？每天他都将祝福如雨倾倒在我们身上。

Psalm 68
诗篇 68

Blessed be the Lord, who daily loadeth us with benefits, even the God of our salvation. Selah.
每日担当我们重担的主，就是救我们的神，是应当称颂的。细拉。

James 1:17
雅各书 1:17

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
各样美善的恩赐和各样全备的赏赐都是从上头来的，从众光之父那里降下来的；在他并没有改变，也没有转动的影儿。

His goodness is so amazing, we need to realise how good God truly is.
他的良善如此奇妙，我们需要认识到神真是何等良善。

Secondly, he is our stronghold, whenever we are in trouble, we can run to him.
其次，他是我们的保障，每当我们遭遇患难，就能奔向他。

诗篇 18 说得何等美好：

2 The Lord is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
耶和华是我的岩石、我的山寨、我的救主、我的神、我的磐石，我所投靠的；他是我的盾牌，是拯救我的角，是我的高台。

3 I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
我要求告当赞美的耶和华，这样我必从仇敌手中被救出来。

Whenever we are in trouble, our Lord is there, he has placed the comforter, the Holy Spirit in our hearts.
每当我们遭遇患难，我们的主就在那里，他已将保惠师——圣灵——安置在我们心中。

Thirdly, He knows us, Psalm 139 tells us, he knows us from head to toe and not only that his knows us as his children.
第三，他认识我们，诗篇 139 告诉我们，他从头到脚都认识我们，不仅如此，他还认识我们是他的儿女。

能被称为万王之王的儿女是何等奇妙的事，我认为这是世上最大的尊荣。你同意吗？

Lastly, we can trust in him, why because he is absolutely and totally trustworthy.
最后，我们可以信靠他，因为他绝对、完全可信。

God is and always will be faithful to us, we are often faithless, but he abideth faithful.
神对我们永远信实，我们常常失信，但他仍然信实。

13 If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
我们纵然失信，他仍是可信的，因为他不能背乎自己。
