The Lord Will Do Nothing
Without Revealing to His Prophet
W5 2010-10-08 (摩3:1-4:13)
經文: 阿摩司書 4:12 以色列啊,我必向你如此行;以色列啊,我既這樣行,你當預備迎見你的神。
默想: 求主讓我在一生的遭遇當中,看出上帝的作為。求主也幫助我,讓我預備好迎見天父上帝。
題目:耶和華採用那些方法來懲治以色列人,以色列人卻不知悔改呢?

For the rebellion Israel, the Lord summoned her neighboring countries Ashdod and Egypt to witness their great evil. Also, an enemy overran her land, pull down her strongholds and plunder her fortresses.
回覆刪除The Lord destroyed the altars of Bethel, which means He dismissed the religious system of Israel with contempt. God tore down the houses and mansions in Israel. Yet, the Israelites were still stubborn, not willing to return to Him. Disasters such as famine, drought, blight, mildew, and plagues could not wake them up.
The Israelites were indifferent to the signs or warnings from God so they had to face Him at the trial.
大家平安
回覆刪除旱風、霉爛、瘟疫、傾覆城邑,「......你們仍不歸向我。這是耶和華說的。」(4:9-11)
小孩被處罰時,正常的情況是小孩會渴求父母的原諒與接納,並會承諾"下次不再犯"(能否做到是另一回事);"無動於衷"的反應,可能比所犯的錯更令人生氣。
求主幫助我、提醒我,留意神在我身上的作為,心思意念歸向神。
Dear All, Peng An,
回覆刪除Sometimes, punishment only can change ones behavior but cannot change ones heart. The only one way to chang ones heart is to touch his heart and replace the old one with new one. It needs a lot of time for waiting. Only God can have such love to wait the man to change his heart. May Lord teach me to have such love for waiting the change.
Stephen
