Romans 4:3 because the Scripture says, "Abraham believed God and God accepted Abraham's faith, and that faith made him right with God."
어떤 믿음을 가져야 하는가? → 하나님께서 받아들이는 믿음
바울은 로마서 4:3에서 창세기 15:6 말씀을 인용하면서 아브라함의 믿음을 말했습니다. 즉 아브라함은 하나님을 믿었고 하나님께서는 아브라함의 믿음을 받아들이셨으며 그 믿음은 하나님께서 그를 옳다고 인정하는 자가 되도록 하셨습니다(3절).
오늘 말씀을 보며 아브라함이 행했던 믿음은 하나님께서 받아들이시는 믿음으로 연결된 것이 새로웠습니다. 우리가 믿음으로 산다는 말을 하며 그와 같은 생활을 한다고 하지만 그러나 모든 믿음이 하나님께 인정받고 받아들이시는 믿음이 되는 것은 아닌 것 같습니다. 따라서, 믿음을 가지고 있다고 할 때 내가 인정하며 주변 사람이 인정하는 믿음이 아니라 하나님께서 받아들이시는 믿음이 되어야 함을 보게 되었습니다.
그렇다면 하나님께서 받아들이시는 믿음은 어떤 것일까요? 바로 아브라함이 나타내었던 믿음인 것입니다. 유명한 아브라함의 일화에서 보듯이 창세기 12장 1-3절에서 갈 바를 알지 못하는 상황에서도 하나님의 말씀을 따라 떠나갔던 삶을 살았던 아브라함의 믿음이 그중 하나일 것입니다. 저도 오늘을 살아가며 정말 믿음에 의한 삶을 살았으면 좋겠습니다. 제가 믿음을 가졌다고 하면서도 늘 일상의 눈에 보이는 삶에 매여 살아가고 있으나 믿음에 의한 삶을 살아서 하나님께서 받아들이시는 믿음의 삶을 살아갔으면 좋겠습니다.
주여, 제가 오늘을 살면서 믿음에 의한 삶, 눈에 보이는 것이 아니라 믿음에 의한 삶을 살기 위해 일상에서 숨기도를 통하여 하나님을 인식하고 인정하며 하나님께 찬양드리는 삶을 살아갈 수 있기를 기도드립니다. 주여, 제가 오늘 이러한 적용에 깨어서 부디 믿음에 의한 숨기도, 숨기도에 의한 믿음의 삶을 한 번이라도, 한 순간이라도 살아갈 수 있게 되길 간절히 기도합니다. 예수님의 이름으로 기도합니다. 아멘!

What kind of faith should we have? → Faith that is acceptable to God
In Romans 4:3, Paul quotes Genesis 15:6 to speak of Abraham's faith: Abraham believed God, God accepted Abraham's faith, and that faith made him someone God recognized as right (v. 3).
It was refreshing to see in today's passage that Abraham's faith was connected to God's acceptance of his faith. We say that we live by faith, and we claim to live by faith, but it seems that not all faith is recognized and accepted by God. Therefore, when we say that we have faith, we see that it should be the faith that God accepts, not the faith that we recognize and that others recognize.
So, what kind of faith does God accept? It's the kind of faith that Abraham showed, as we see in the famous story of Abraham, who lived a life of following God's word even when he didn't know where he was going in Genesis 12:1-3. I hope that I can live a life of faith today, too. I hope that I can live a life of faith that God accepts by living a life of faith, even though I say that I have faith, but I'm always caught up in the visible life of everyday life.
Lord, I pray that as I live today, I may live a life of faith, a life by faith, not by sight, that I may live a life of recognizing, acknowledging, and praising God through hidden prayer in my daily life. Lord, I pray that I will be awakened to this application today and that I will be able to live a life by faith, a life of faith by hidden prayer, even if it is just for a moment. I pray this in the name of Jesus. Amen!
