3月31日 每日經歷神


331

標  題:主行在你前面

經  節:「但我復活以後,要在你們以先往加利利去。」(馬可福音十四章28節)

耶穌永遠不會把你孤孤單單地丟在某個處境不管你。祂總是比祂的孩子先行一步,誠如當年祂白日以雲柱、夜晚以火柱帶領以色列的兒女一樣。你不會作祂的先鋒部隊,置身於陌生的逆境中。祂總是在你所遇的任何環境先行一步。你的遭遇不會使神大驚小怪,因為祂早已先到達那兒。祂早已預備好要滿足你每個需要,因為祂早就走在你的前面,祂知道你人生所有需求(申命記卅一:8)。

神不但走在你的前面,祂也在你的四周環繞你、保護你、安慰你(詩篇一三九:712)。耶穌知道門徒會因自己的十字架受難、而張皇失措,所以,祂先向他們保證自己會比他們先行一步,無論發生什麼事、去任何地方,門徒都可以放心前進。保羅也曾親身經歷這個保證(使徒行傳十八:9,廿三:11)。無論你處在任何慌亂的處境,你的主在那裡!

如果你正經歷困惑的逆境,要知道你的主已經走在你的前頭,祂與你同在。祂完全瞭解你所面對的苦境,祂主動地回應你的需要。不可能有個地方是你能去,而基督不走在你前頭等待你加入祂。即使當你面對死亡,你可以確信祂已先你戰勝死亡。作為神的兒女,要安息,因為你的救主已經走在你的前面,祂會與你同行一生。


Your
Lord Precedes You

“But
after I have been raised, I will go before you to Galilee.” (Mark 14:28)

God never sends you into a situation
alone. He always goes before His children, as He did with the children of
Israel when He led them with a cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night. You
do not serve as His advance troops in a foreign and hostile situation. He
always precedes you in any situation you encounter. God is never caught by
surprise by your experience; He has already been there. He is prepared to meet
every need because He has gone before you and knows exactly what you will need
for your pilgrimage (Deut. 31:8).

Not only does God go before you, but He also
stands beside you and behind you, to provide protection and comfort (Ps.
139:7–12). Jesus knew His disciples would be totally bewildered by His
crucifixion, so He assured them in advance that no matter what happened, no
matter where they went, they could go in confidence that He had already gone
before them. Paul, too, experienced this assurance (Acts 18:9; 23:11). In the
most bewildering circumstances, his Lord was there!

If you are going through a difficult or
confusing time, know that your Lord has gone before you and He is present with
you. He is fully aware of what you are facing, and He is actively responding to
your need. There is nowhere you can go that you will not find Christ waiting
for you to join Him. Even when you face death, you can be assured that He has
gone before you in triumph. As a child of God, rest in the knowledge that your
Savior preceded you, and He will walk with you through each experience of your
life.
