May 8【每日活水】活出仰望交托的人生

 

撒母耳记上26:1~12

大卫又饶扫罗的命

1 西弗人到基比亚见扫罗,说:「大卫不是在旷野前的哈基拉山藏着吗?」
2 扫罗就起身,带领以色列人中挑选的三千精兵下到西弗的旷野,要在那里寻索大卫。
3 扫罗在旷野前的哈基拉山,在道路上安营。大卫住在旷野,听说扫罗到旷野来追寻他,
4 就打发人去探听,便知道扫罗果然来到。
5 大卫起来,到扫罗安营的地方,看见扫罗和他的元帅尼珥的儿子押尼珥睡卧之处;扫罗睡在辎重营里,百姓安营在他周围。
6 大卫对赫人亚希米勒和洗鲁雅的儿子约押的兄弟亚比筛说:「谁同我下到扫罗营里去?」亚比筛说:「我同你下去。」
7 于是大卫和亚比筛夜间到了百姓那里,见扫罗睡在辎重营里;他的枪在头旁,插在地上。押尼珥和百姓睡在他周围。
8 亚比筛对大卫说:「现在  SHEN 将你的仇敌交在你手里,求你容我拿枪将他刺透在地,一刺就成,不用再刺。」
9 大卫对亚比筛说:「不可害死他。有谁伸手害耶/和/华的受膏者而无罪呢?」
10 大卫又说:「我指着永生的耶/和/华起誓,他或被耶/和/华击打,或是死期到了,或是出战阵亡;
11 我在耶/和/华面前,万不敢伸手害耶/和/华的受膏者。现在你可以将他头旁的枪和水瓶拿来,我们就走。」
12 大卫从扫罗的头旁拿了枪和水瓶,二人就走了,没有人看见,没有人知道,也没有人醒起,都睡着了,因为耶/和/华使他们沉沉地睡了。
David Again Spares Saul’s Life
1 The Ziphites went to Saul at Gibeah and said, “Is not David hiding on the hill of Hakilah, which faces Jeshimon?”
2 So Saul went down to the Desert of Ziph, with his three thousand select Israelite troops, to search there for David.
3 Saul made his camp beside the road on the hill of Hakilah facing Jeshimon, but David stayed in the wilderness. When he saw that Saul had followed him there,
4 he sent out scouts and learned that Saul had definitely arrived.
5 Then David set out and went to the place where Saul had camped. He saw where Saul and Abner son of Ner, the commander of the army, had lain down. Saul was lying inside the camp, with the army encamped around him.
6 David then asked Ahimelek the Hittite and Abishai son of Zeruiah, Joab’s brother, “Who will go down into the camp with me to Saul?” “I’ll go with you,” said Abishai.
7 So David and Abishai went to the army by night, and there was Saul, lying asleep inside the camp with his spear stuck in the ground near his head. Abner and the soldiers were lying around him.
8 Abishai said to David, “Today God has delivered your enemy into your hands. Now let me pin him to the ground with one thrust of the spear; I won’t strike him twice.”
9 But David said to Abishai, “Don’t destroy him! Who can lay a hand on the Lord’s anointed and be guiltless?
10 As surely as the Lord lives,” he said, “the Lord himself will strike him, or his time will come and he will die, or he will go into battle and perish.
11 But the Lord forbid that I should lay a hand on the Lord’s anointed. Now get the spear and water jug that are near his head, and let’s go.”
12 So David took the spear and water jug near Saul’s head, and they left. No one saw or knew about it, nor did anyone wake up. They were all sleeping, because the Lord had put them into a deep sleep.

灵/修指南

属犹大支派的西弗人将大卫的藏身之处报告给扫罗。扫罗随即带领三千精兵下到西弗旷野去追捕大卫,并在哈基拉山的路旁安营(1—3节)。大卫得知此事,就派人去打探虚实,确认了扫罗在军营里。大卫就和亚比筛进入军营,而扫罗因熟睡,处在毫无防备的状态。对此,亚比筛提议趁此机会杀死扫罗,然而大卫不许,因为大卫相信扫罗是 SHEN 的受膏者,自己无权左右他的性命。因此,将主权全然仰望交托给 SHEN ,不僭越 SHEN 所定下的界限,对属 SHEN 的人来说是至关重要的。要记得,当我们试图用自己的能力和方法去解决问题,就有可能打乱 SHEN 的旨意,因此我们要学会分辨 SHEN 的心意。试问自己,我的目光是停留在问题上,还是仰望找寻 SHEN 的旨意?
 

内室dao告

求 SHEN 帮助我不要过度关注问题本身,而是学会仰望交托,懂得分辨 SHEN 的旨意。
