耶利米書29章8-14節
神的小僕人
經文:
8 萬軍之耶和華以色列的神如此說:
9 因為他們託我的名對你們說假預言,我並沒有差遣他們,
10 耶和華如此說:為巴比倫所定的七十年滿了以後,我要眷顧你們,
11 耶和華說:我知道我向你們所懷的意念,是賜平安的意念,
12 你們要呼求我,禱告我,我就應允你們。
13 你們尋求我,若專心尋求我,就必尋見。
14 耶和華說:我必被你們尋見,我也必使你們被擄的人歸回,
從這段經文我們看到:神清楚的告訴以色列人,是祂把以色列人帶進被擄為奴之地,
有的時候我們感覺好像活在外邦,生活不如意,又或面對挑戰,
禱告:
神啊!祢是賜平安的神,祢的旨意是賜平安,並不是降災禍,
Jeremiah 29:8-14
The Lord clearly told the Israelites that He carried them to captivity. Yet when they turned back to seek the Lord, God would set them free and bring them back to their land. The plan of our God is to proper us, not to harm us.
How often we live like a foreigner, our life turns against us, and there are challenges. God is waiting for us to turn back to Him and to seek Him. We learn to listen, to follow and obey in adverse circumstances, through which we experience God and His protection.
His plan is to prosper us not to harm us. Let us seek Him and call upon Him.
