Sep 10【每日活水】高墙阻挡不了神的应许

申命记3:1~11

击败巴珊王噩
民21‧31-35
1「以后,我们转回,向巴珊去。巴珊和他的众民都出来,在以得来与我们交战。 
2 耶和华对我说:『不要怕他!因我已将他和他的众民,并他的地,都交在你手中;你要待他像从前待住希实本亚摩利西宏一样。』 
3 于是耶和华-我们的 神也将巴珊和他的众民都交在我们手中;我们杀了他们,没有留下一个。 
4 那时,我们夺了他所有的城,共有六十座,没有一座城不被我们所夺。这为亚珥歌伯的全境,就是巴珊王的国。 
5 这些城都有坚固的高墙,有门有闩。此外还有许多无城墙的乡村。 
6 我们将这些都毁灭了,像从前待希实本西宏一样,把有人烟的各城,连女人带孩子,尽都毁灭; 
7 惟有一切牲畜和城中的财物都取为自己的掠物。 
8 那时,我们从约旦河东两个亚摩利王的手将亚嫩谷直到黑门山之地夺过来
( 9黑门山西顿人称为西连亚摩利人称为示尼珥), 
10 就是夺了平原的各城、基列全地、巴珊全地,直到撒迦以得来,都是巴珊国内的城邑。
( 11利乏音人所剩下的只有巴珊。他的床是铁的,长九肘,宽四肘,都是以人肘为度。现今岂不是在亚扪人的拉巴吗?)」
Defeat of Og King of Bashan
1 Next we turned and went up along the road toward Bashan, and Og king of Bashan with his whole army marched out to meet us in battle at Edrei. 
2 The Lord said to me, “Do not be afraid of him, for I have delivered him into your hands, along with his whole army and his land. Do to him what you did to Sihon king of the Amorites, who reigned in Heshbon.”
3 So the Lord our God also gave into our hands Og king of Bashan and all his army. We struck them down, leaving no survivors. 
4 At that time we took all his cities. There was not one of the sixty cities that we did not take from them—the whole region of Argob, Og’s kingdom in Bashan. 
5 All these cities were fortified with high walls and with gates and bars, and there were also a great many unwalled villages. 
6 We completely destroyed them, as we had done with Sihon king of Heshbon, destroying every city—men, women and children. 
7 But all the livestock and the plunder from their cities we carried off for ourselves.
8 So at that time we took from these two kings of the Amorites the territory east of the Jordan, from the Arnon Gorge as far as Mount Hermon. 
9 (Hermon is called Sirion by the Sidonians; the Amorites call it Senir.) 
10 We took all the towns on the plateau, and all Gilead, and all Bashan as far as Salekah and Edrei, towns of Og’s kingdom in Bashan. 
11 (Og king of Bashan was the last of the Rephaites. His bed was decorated with iron and was more than nine cubits long and four cubits wide. It is still in Rabbah of the Ammonites.)

决心与应用

5. 你对神的话语有多认真,是否真实以此为基准来生活?

巴珊(1节):该地肥沃,位于约旦河东北边,以茂密的森林和牧业出名。

利乏音人所剩下的只有巴珊王噩(11节):利乏音人又被称为散送冥族,他们被形容像亚衲人一样高大,所以又有巨人之称,但透过经文我们得知利乏音人全数被灭,仅剩巴珊王噩。

灵修指南

以色列百姓战胜希实本王西宏后,紧接着征服了基列,之后来到巴珊。巴珊王噩率领众百姓,出来与以色列百姓在以得来争战(1节)。此时神对摩西说,不要惧怕巴珊王噩,因为将如同先前一样带领百姓战胜这些敌对他们的人,让他们明白与他们同行的是全能的神(2节)。神的应许果然没有落空,巴珊王噩和他的百姓皆被以色列人灭尽(3节)。摩西和以色列百姓取得胜利后,占领了包括巴珊地在内的60座城邑(4~5节)。神让自己的百姓经历的大能,不致动摇。这让我们看见,如同经上说,神的应许绝不落空,纵使筑起高墙,也阻挡不了神实现自己的应许。尽管属灵的争战未曾休止,但我们对祂的话语和承诺有多认真?以致能在生活中紧抓住的应许呢?
 

内室祷告

求神让我紧抓住祢所赐的应许,让我在属灵争战中得胜。
