標  題: 神的應許都是是的

經  節: 神的應許,不論有多少,在基督都是是的。所以藉著祂也都是實在的,叫神因我們得榮耀。(哥林多後書一章20節)

神遵守祂所應許的每個諾言。當我們親密地與神同行,我們確信可以得到神在聖經中所給的每個應許。這個真理給我們動力,去尋找經文中的每個應許,好默想如何應用到我們的現實生活中。耶穌應許,當你按著祂的心意求,祂會賜給你所求的東西(約翰福音十六:23下)。這個應許是給每個基督徒的。如果你問神這個應許是否可應用到你的生活,祂的答案是肯定的。如果你到現在還沒有這樣的經驗,也不會改變神曾應許的事實。你可能需要尋求神,以清楚祂的應許尚未實現的因由。保羅宣稱他在自己的生活中,已經檢驗到神每個應許都是豐富及真實的。這就是為甚麼保羅提及「在基督耶穌裡向我們所施的恩慈」(以弗所書二:7下),以及「基督那測不透的豐富」(以弗所書三:8下)。保羅已經查找神應許的豐盛,並且享受祂那豐盛的恩典。如果你在生活中還不曾經歷神全備的應許,不要沮喪或沒有耐心。神可能要裝備你,好向你顯示祂為你所預備那更大的真理。緊緊地與神同行。時候一到,你將會看到神的應許豐富地實現在你的生命中。


God’s
Promises Are Yes

For
all the promises of God in Him are Yes, and in Him Amen, to the glory of God
through us. (2 Corinthians 1:20)

God keeps every promise He makes. When we
walk in intimate fellowship with Christ, we have the assurance that every
promise God has made in Scripture is available to us. This truth should
motivate us to search the Scriptures for each promise in order to meditate upon
its potential for our life.

Jesus promised that when you ask for
something in His will, He will give you what you ask (John 16:23b). This
promise is available to every Christian. If you ask God if this promise applies
to your life, His answer is yes. If you are not now experiencing this promise,
it does not change the fact that God has said it. You may need to seek God’s
answer for why His promise has not yet reached maturity in you.

Paul claimed he had tested each of these
promises in his own life and found them all to be abundantly true. That’s why
he could speak of the “exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us
in Christ Jesus” (Eph. 2:7b) and the “unsearchable riches of Christ” (Eph.
3:8b). Paul had found a wealth of God’s promises and enjoyed them all in
abundance.

Don’t become discouraged or impatient if
you are not experiencing to the fullest all of God’s promises in your life. God
may want to prepare you to receive some of the great truths He has made
available to you. Walk closely with your Lord and, in time, you will see Him
bring His promises to fruition in your life.
