標  題:把他們交付你的手裡

經  節:耶和華對約書亞說:「不要怕他們;因為我已將他們交在你手裡,他們無一人能在你面前站立得住。」(約書亞記十章8節)

再也沒有比確定自己行在神的旨意中,更讓基督徒放心、有自信的了。神不會命令你去做一件事,卻不保證你能成功。神向約書亞保證,當他與迦南人爭戰時,沒有什麼可懼的。神允許以色列人打這些戰役,在他們拾起武器之前,早已決定戰役的勝負了。在他們打仗時,這一點的保證,帶給他們何等的自信!雖然他們的敵人毫不留情地攻擊,約書亞的軍隊早已勝券在握。

神並沒有保證你所計劃的每一件事,都能夠得到勝利,但是,祂曾經應許你,只要你順服祂的旨意,你必定成功(申命記廿八:725)。

是否有人妨礙你順服神的旨意?要安息,要確信神不會允許任何人事物,阻撓祂兒女完成祂的計劃。要謹慎,要以神的方式來評估勝利。當你陷入困境,神要做的也許就是賜下平安在你的心中。當你被人苛待,神要做的也許就是創建你一顆饒恕的心。也許祂現在正要除去你生命中的罪惡。如果你以世人成功的標準來評估自己,你會覺得挫敗。倘若你看的,是神要藉著當前的處境完成什麼事,你會發現神是成功的。如果你確定自己行在神的旨意中,而你正面對高漲的反對勢力,要有信心,神必完成祂手上的工。


Delivered into Your Hand

And the LORD said to Joshua, "Do not fear them, for I have delivered them into your hand; not a man of them shall stand before you." (Joshua 10:8)

No greater confidence will ever come to you or to any other Christian than the confidence of knowing you are doing God’s will. God will not commission you to do anything without ensuring your success. God assured Joshua that there was no reason to fear as he prepared to battle the Canaanites. God would allow the Israelites to fight the battle, but the outcome was settled before they ever picked up their weapons. What confidence this gave them as they fought! Even though their enemies fought relentlessly, Joshua’s army was certain of eventual victory.

God does not promise you victory in every task you devise, but He does promise that you will be successful whenever you follow His will (Deut. 28:7, 25). Does it appear that people are keeping you from obeying God’s will? Rest assured that God will not allow anyone or anything to prevent His children from accomplishing His purposes.

Be careful to evaluate success in the way that God does. Perhaps He is working to produce His peace in your heart as you face troubling times. Perhaps He is working to develop a forgiving spirit in you when others mistreat you. Perhaps He is working to eliminate a particular sin in your life. If you accept the world’s understanding of victory, you may feel defeated. If you look to see what God is accomplishing through your situation, you will find that He is succeeding. When you face opposition but know you are doing what God has asked, have confidence that He will accomplish everything that He desires.
