標  題:祂在你的右邊

經  節:我將耶和華常擺在我面前,因祂在我右邊,我便不致搖動。(詩篇十六篇8節)

將主「常擺在你的面前」是什麼意思?這句話是指,你願意以自己對神的信心,來看周遭發生的每一件事。你全心所注意的人事物,成為支配你生活的動力。你可能是基督徒,然而如果你總是專注於自己的問題,你的問題會決定你人生的方向。如果你的專注點是人,那麼人們會決定你的思想與作為。在聖經時代,右手是最重要的席位,通常是保留給參謀長和主要的擁護者。當你選擇專注於基督,你就是邀請祂在你生活佔有最重要的席位,成為你的策士和保衛者。

每當面對一個新的經驗,你應當轉向祂,向祂諮詢見解及支取力量。當人們侮辱你或錯待你,你應該向你的策士徵詢何為合宜的反應。當你面對危機,應當向你右手的那一位支取力量。當你有所需求,應當在自己付出行動時,詢問策士的意見。當你面對可怕的處境,應該向你右手邊的保衛者支取勇氣。你做的所有事情,都落入你與基督關係的範疇之內。

神的恩典實在令人難以置信,基督就站在你的身旁指引你、勸導你、並且保護你!基督就在你的右手邊,你怎能因為環境而變得憂心沮喪?祂就在你的右手邊,會帶給你何等的信心!


He Is at Your Right Hand

I have set the LORD always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved. (Psalm 16:8)

What does it mean to set the Lord always before you? It means that you choose to relate everything you encounter to your trust in God. What you choose to focus on becomes the dominant influence in your life. You may be a Christian, but if your focus is always on your problems, your problems will determine the direction of your life. If your focus is on people, then people will determine what you think and do. In biblical times, the right hand was the most distinguished position, reserved for one’s chief adviser and supporter. When you choose to focus on Christ, you invite Him to take the most important position in your life as Counselor and Defender.

Every time you face a new experience, you should turn to Christ for His interpretation and strength. When people insult you and mistreat you, you should seek direction from your Counselor regarding the right response. When you face a crisis, you should receive strength from the One at your right hand. When you experience need, you should consult your Counselor before you react. When you face a fearful situation, you should take courage from the Advocate at your right hand. Everything you do is in the context of your relationship to Christ.

What an incredible act of God’s grace that Christ should stand beside you to guide you and counsel you and defend you! How could you ever become dismayed over your situation with Christ at your right hand? What confidence this should give you!
