標  題:神的法則

經  節:祂使摩西知道祂的法則,叫以色列人曉得祂的作為。(詩篇一○三篇7節)

你是否僅僅知道神的作為就心滿意足,或是你想要知道祂的法則?作為與法則,兩者之間有很大的分別。在以色列兒女的生命與摩西的生命中,這個區別表明得十分清楚。以色列人親眼看見神行的奇跡,他們與摩西一同走過紅海幹地,與摩西一同吃由天而降的嗎哪與鵪鶉。他們滿足於神的供應,卻不認識神自己。摩西的視野則超越神的供應,他看到這位神。其他人像埃及術士也會行超自然的奇跡,但是沒有一個人的作為能像神的法則(出埃及記七:1112)。神作為的法則為我們開啟了一扇窗戶,認識神的本性。如果摩西以神的權能為滿足,他大可接受讓天使帶領的安排,反正他可以得到個人的勝利(出埃及記卅三:15)。然而,摩西要更深刻地經歷神自己,不僅是神的作為。

今日有些人也像以色列人一樣。他們滿足于經歷神的作為,卻不認識神自己。他們是禱告回應的接收者,卻從來沒有想要認識那位供應者。神護佑他們的家庭、財產、工作,他們很滿足,卻不想認識那賜福的源頭。他們享受神保護的恩澤,卻沒有逐漸認識他們的守護者。

你是否親身經歷神,更認識祂?當你觀看神的作為時,你是否更進一步看到祂個性的啟示(創世記廿二:14;約翰福音六:35)?


God’s Ways

He made known His ways to Moses, His acts to the children of Israel. (Psalms 103:7)

Are you satisfied with merely knowing the acts of God, or do you also want to know His ways? There is a difference. This difference is illustrated in the lives of the children of Israel as compared to Moses. The Israelites witnessed the miracles God performed; they walked across the dry Red Sea just as Moses did. They ate the manna and quail from heaven even as Moses did. They were content to receive God’s provision without ever knowing God Himself. Yet Moses saw beyond the provision of God to the person of God. Others, such as the Egyptian magicians, might perform miraculous acts, but no one else did things the way God did (Exod. 7:11–12). The way God acted provided a window into His nature. If Moses had been content with only God’s power, he could have accepted the presence of an angel and been victorious in his efforts (Exod. 33:15). But Moses wanted to experience more. He wanted to experience God Himself, not just God’s activity.

Some today, like the Israelites, are content to experience God’s activity without ever coming to know God. They are the recipients of answered prayer, yet they never come to know the Provider. They are blessed by God’s providential care over their families, their homes, and their jobs, yet they are satisfied not knowing the One from whom the blessings come. They benefit from God’s protection, yet they never become acquainted with the Protector.

Have you come to know God more personally as a result of your experiences with Him? As you observe the acts of God, look beyond them to the revelation of His character (Gen. 22:14; John 6:35).
