标  题: 没人能禁止你

经  节: 其中惟有嫩的儿子约书亚和耶孚尼的儿子迦勒仍然存活。(民数记十四章38节)

他人的决定与不顺服,不会废除神在你身上的旨意。其他人的行为会影响你,但没有人能够阻止神在你身上的作为。约书亚和迦勒相信神,然而,因着其他人的惧怕与悖逆的连累,他们被迫在旷野漂流四十年。

你是否曾经觉得某人阻挠了神在你身上的旨意?也许是某人阻挡你得到一份新工作,或挡住你升迁的机会。也许政府不批准你的申请,或委员会不同意你的建议。你是否相信人真的可以阻挠神成就在你身上的计划?

神的旨意行在约书亚和迦勒的身上。祂给他们主要的任务,不是进入应许之地,而是作属灵的领袖,来事奉那些百姓。约书亚和迦勒不可能自己置身于应许之地,而同时又带领那些漂流旷野的百姓。神把领袖们放在一个位置,好叫他们在自己国家的百姓中,可以发挥属灵的影响力。结果他们成为后世后代属灵领袖的榜样。就算如此,神最后还是把约书亚和迦勒带入应许之地,诚如当初祂自己所应许的。他们的确延迟了进入应许之地的时间,但是他们没有受到阻挠。要记住:没有人能够阻挠神成就在你身上的计划。凡神所谋定,必作成,没人可以阻挡祂的计划。


No One Can Prevent You

But Joshua the son of Nun and Caleb the son of Jephunneh remained alive,
of the men who went to spy out the land. (Numbers 14:38)

The decisions and disobedience of others will not cancel God’s will for
you. Other people’s actions will affect you, but no one can prevent what God
wants to do in and through you. Joshua and Caleb trusted God and yet were
forced to wander in a wilderness for forty years because of the fear and
disbelief of others.

Have you ever felt that someone was thwarting God’s will for you?
Perhaps someone kept you from getting a job or earning a promotion. Perhaps the
government would not approve your application or a committee disagreed with
your recommendation. Do you believe that mere man can stop God from
accomplishing His purposes in your life?

God did everything He intended to do in the lives of Joshua and Caleb.
His primary assignment for them had not been to enter the Promised Land but
rather to serve as godly leaders for their people. Joshua and Caleb could not
lead the people if they were in the Promised Land by themselves while the
people were still wandering in the wilderness! God kept these leaders in a
position where they could exert a godly influence upon their nation, and, as a
result, they became models of spiritual leadership for generations to come.
Even so, God ultimately brought Caleb and Joshua into the Promised Land just as
He had said. They had been delayed but not thwarted. Be assured of this: No one
can hinder God from carrying out His plans for your life. Once God sets
something in motion, no one can stop it (Isa. 46:11).
