3月18日 每日經歷神


318

標  題: 神的供應帶來榮耀

經  節: 並要在患難之日求告我;我必搭救你,你也要榮耀我。(詩篇五十章15節)

知道嗎?當你面臨苦難,求告神會為神帶來榮耀。神應許,若是你轉向祂,祂必拯救你。每回遭遇困難,你不求神的幫助,就是拒絕榮耀神。有時候,神允許讓你有某種需求,所以非得求告神不可。如此一來,世人可以看到神在祂兒女身上的作為,是何等不同。如果神從未讓你有需求的經驗,那麼你周遭的人可能永遠沒有機會,親眼看到神是如何豐盛供應基督徒的生活所需。如果從未面對短缺,你可能會自以為能自給自足,不需要神每日供應你的需要。

驕傲使你自以為不需要神的幫助,自尊使你以為靠著自己的聰明才智、資產及努力,就可以處理任何困境。驕傲也會奪取神的榮耀,並且把榮耀歸於自己。不要讓你的驕傲竊取神的榮耀。求告你的主,單單等候祂的拯救,然後,歸所有祂應得的榮耀給祂。

自給自足的觀念可能會大大地阻擋你經歷神的能力,並把榮耀歸給神。下回面臨苦難時,要求告神!


God’s
Provision Brings Glory

Call
upon Me in the day of trouble; I will deliver you, and you shall glorify Me.
(Psalms 50:15)

Did you know that you bring glory to God
by calling upon Him when you are in distress? God promised He would deliver you
if you turned to Him. You deny the Lord honor that is rightfully His every time
you find yourself in difficulty and you fail to call upon Him for help! There
may be times when God allows you to reach a point of need so that you can call
upon Him, and thus let Him demonstrate to a watching world the difference He
makes in the lives of His children. If God never allowed you to experience
need, people around you might never have the opportunity to witness God’s
provision in the life of a Christian. If you never faced a shortfall, you might
be tempted to feel self-sufficient and without any need of God in your daily
life.

Pride will tempt you to think that you do
not need to seek God’s assistance. Self-regard will seek to convince you that
you can handle your dilemma through your own wisdom, resources, and hard work.
Pride will also rob glory from God and seek to give it to you. Don’t allow your
pride to take what rightfully belongs to the Lord. Call upon your Lord and wait
exclusively upon Him to rescue you. Then give Him the glory that He deserves.

Self-sufficiency can greatly hinder your
ability to experience God and bring Him honor. The next time you are in
distress, turn to Him!
