安全保障 The Safest Shelter

經文: 「必有一人像避風所和避暴風雨的隱密處。」(以賽亞書卅二︰2)
|
我們都知道這個人是誰,除了從天而降,道成肉身的人子耶穌,還會有誰﹖祂是信徒的避難所,因為祂掌管風雨,所以我們可以在上帝的翅膀下,找到避風港。藉此,我們可以逃避上帝的震怒,也可以躲避人的怒氣,摒除生活的煩惱,以及死亡的威脅。我們既有這等可靠的避難所,我們何苦淒慘地忍受風吹雨淋?趕快進來吧,躲在上帝懷中,那是最平安穩妥的避難所! 常常不怎樣的風,會演變成狂風驟雨,把地面的一切看得見的都吹跑;同樣地,本來看似堅固穩妥的事物,會因我們軟弱的信心而動搖垮掉。我們的主耶穌,榮耀的上帝,是我們的避難所,永遠不會倒塌垮掉,只要隱藏在祂裡面,即使外面風狂雨暴,我們內心仍有說不出的寧靜和平安。 今天就讓我們躲在上帝的蔭疪下,自在地坐著,唱著信心的詩歌,稱頌祂的保護,奇妙的主啊,我們真是愛祢,因為祢是我們暴風雨中的避難所!
Scripture: "And a Man shall be as an hiding-place from the wind and a covert from the tempest"(Isaiah 32:2).
|
Who this Man is we all know. Who could He be but the Second Man, the LORD from heaven, the man of sorrows, the Son of Man? What a hiding place He has been to His people! He bears the full force of the wind Himself, and so He shelters those who hide themselves in Him. We have thus escaped the wrath of God, and we shall thus escape the anger of men, the cares of this life, and the dread of death. Why do we stand in the wind when we may so readily and so surely get out of it by hiding behind our LORD? Let us this day run to Him and be at peace.
Often the common wind of trouble rises in its force and becomes a tempest, sweeping everything before it. Things which looked firm and stable rock in the blast, and many and great are the falls among our carnal confidences. Our LORD Jesus, the glorious man, is a covert which is never blown down. In Him we mark the tempest sweeping by, but we ourselves rest in delightful serenity.
This day let us just stow ourselves away in our hiding place and sit and sing under the protection of our Covert. Blessed Jesus! Blessed Jesus! How we love Thee! Well we may, for Thou art to us a shelter in the time of storm. |
