Oct 16 【每日活水】祈求每日需用的饮食和恩典

 

出埃及记 16:1~8

吗哪和鹌鹑
1  以色列全会众从以琳起行,在出埃及后第二个月十五日到了以琳西奈中间、的旷野。 
以色列全会众在旷野向摩西亚伦发怨言, 
说:「巴不得我们早死在埃及地、耶/和/华的手下;那时我们坐在肉锅旁边,吃得饱足。你们将我们领出来,到这旷野,是要叫这全会众都饿死啊!」
耶/和/华对摩西说:「我要将粮食从天降给你们。百姓可以出去,每天收每天的分,我好试验他们遵不遵我的法度。 
到第六天,他们要把所收进来的预备好了,比每天所收的多一倍。」 
摩西亚伦以色列众人说:「到了晚上,你们要知道是耶/和/华将你们从埃及地领出来的。 
早晨,你们要看见耶/和/华的荣耀,因为耶/和/华听见你们向他所发的怨言了。我们算什么,你们竟向我们发怨言呢?」 
摩西又说:「耶/和/华晚上必给你们肉吃,早晨必给你们食物得饱;因为你们向耶/和/华发的怨言,他都听见了。我们算什么,你们的怨言不是向我们发的,乃是向耶/和/华发的。」
Manna and Quail
The whole Israelite community set out from Elim and came to the Desert of Sin, which is between Elim and Sinai, on the fifteenth day of the second month after they had come out of Egypt. 
In the desert the whole community grumbled against Moses and Aaron. 
The Israelites said to them, “If only we had died by the Lord’s hand in Egypt! There we sat around pots of meat and ate all the food we wanted, but you have brought us out into this desert to starve this entire assembly to death.”
Then the Lord said to Moses, “I will rain down bread from heaven for you. The people are to go out each day and gather enough for that day. In this way I will test them and see whether they will follow my instructions. 
On the sixth day they are to prepare what they bring in, and that is to be twice as much as they gather on the other days.”
So Moses and Aaron said to all the Israelites, “In the evening you will know that it was the Lord who brought you out of Egypt, 
and in the morning you will see the glory of the Lord, because he has heard your grumbling against him. Who are we, that you should grumble against us?” 
Moses also said, “You will know that it was the Lord when he gives you meat to eat in the evening and all the bread you want in the morning, because he has heard your grumbling against him. Who are we? You are not grumbling against us, but against the Lord.”

在出埃及之后第二个月十五日(1节): 指出埃及过了一个月又十五天,即四十五天之后。
到了晚上,你们就知道……早晨,你们要看见……(6~7节): 这两句话是平行的,意指以色列人在晚上和早晨将经历 SHEN 荣耀的大能。
 

灵/修指南

以色列人进人西奈山之前到了汛的旷野,在那里他们因为粮食问题,再次向摩西和亚伦发怨言(1~2节)。他们忘记了先前在埃及为奴的痛苦,反而美化过去,也忘记 SHEN 已经将他们从为奴之地解放出来、得着自由的恩典。实际上,以色列人抱怨的不是摩西和亚伦,而是 SHEN 。可是,当 SHEN 听到他们的抱怨, SHEN 却没有惩罚他们,而是从天降下食物喂饱他们(4,8节)。由此可见, SHEN 实在是乐意将恩典赐给他的百姓,而从天降下的食物,最终也指向作为生命之粮的 YS JI DU 。盼望我们以信心胜过所有的抱怨和不满,并时常省察自己是否被 SHEN 的爱充满,好能活出得胜及丰盛的生命。
 

内室dao告

愿我以信心胜过一切的抱怨和不满,又被 SHEN 的爱充满,活出得胜与丰盛。
