Sep 08【每日活水】天下万民都会惊慌惧怕

申命记2：16~25

16「兵丁从民中都灭尽死亡以后，

17耶和华吩咐我说：

18『你今天要从摩押的境界亚珥经过，

19走近亚扪人之地，不可扰害他们，也不可与他们争战。亚扪人的地，我不赐给你们为业，因我已将那地赐给罗得的子孙为业。』

20那地也算为利乏音人之地，先前利乏音人住在那里，亚扪人称他们为散送冥。

21那民众多，身体高大，像亚衲人一样，但耶和华从亚扪人面前除灭他们，亚扪人就得了他们的地，接着居住。

22正如耶和华从前为住西珥的以扫子孙将何利人从他们面前除灭、他们得了何利人的地、接着居住一样，直到今日。

23从迦斐托出来的迦斐托人将先前住在乡村直到迦萨的亚卫人除灭，接着居住。

24你们起来前往，过亚嫩谷；我已将亚摩利人希实本王西宏和他的地交在你手中，你要与他争战，得他的地为业。

25从今日起，我要使天下万民听见你的名声都惊恐惧怕，且因你发颤伤恸。」

16Now when the last of these fighting men among the people had died,

17the Lord said to me,

18“Today you are to pass by the region of Moab at Ar.

19When you come to the Ammonites, do not harass them or provoke them to war, for I will not give you possession of any land belonging to the Ammonites. I have given it as a possession to the descendants of Lot.”

20(That too was considered a land of the Rephaites, who used to live there; but the Ammonites called them Zamzummites.

21They were a people strong and numerous, and as tall as the Anakites. The Lord destroyed them from before the Ammonites, who drove them out and settled in their place.

22The Lord had done the same for the descendants of Esau, who lived in Seir, when he destroyed the Horites from before them. They drove them out and have lived in their place to this day.

23And as for the Avvites who lived in villages as far as Gaza, the Caphtorites coming out from Caphtor destroyed them and settled in their place.)

Defeat of Sihon King of Heshbon

24“Set out now and cross the Arnon Gorge. See, I have given into your hand Sihon the Amorite, king of Heshbon, and his country. Begin to take possession of it and engage him in battle.

25This very day I will begin to put the terror and fear of you on all the nations under heaven. They will hear reports of you and will tremble and be in anguish because of you.”

灵修指南

以色列人经过以东人(5节)、摩押人(8节)的土地时，神吩咐以色列百姓不要和他们争战。同样，面对罗得的子孙亚扪人，神也嘱咐以色列人不可侵犯他们的土地(19~21节)，因为神已经将这些土地赐给他们。然而，当他们来到亚摩利人希实本王的土地，神却告诉百姓，他们将会打败希实本王，得着亚摩利人的土地(24节)。神在百姓进人迦南之前，把争战得胜的盼望赐给他们，并让天下万民因此惊慌惧怕(25节)。神会成就的应许(参创15:18,21)，解决百姓的担忧和遭遇的所有难题。所以，让我们相信这位信实的神，抓住祂所赐给我们的应许，无论将会遇到什么样的挑战，靠着神所赐的信心勇敢迈步，必能得着胜利。

内室祷告

求主不让我惧怕，乃是倚靠神的话语，放胆前行。
