《SCRIPTURE 经文》：耶和华说：”我的意念非同你们的意念；我的道路非同你们的道路。”“天怎样高过地，照样，我的道路高过你们的道路；我的意念高过你们的意念。雨雪从天而降，并不返回，却滋润地土，使地上发芽结实，使撒种的有种，使要吃的有粮。我口所出的话也必如此，决不徒然返回，却要成就我所喜悦的，在我发他去成就（或译: 所命定）的事上必然亨通。” “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the LORD. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts. As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.” (以赛亚书 Isaiah 55:8-11)
《SHARING 分享》: 今日灵粮 Spiritual FOOD TODAY 今天我们分享的经文是以赛亚书 Isaiah 55:8-11，先知以赛亚传达并强调天父的想法与我们的想法完全不同。我们至高无上的神对我们生活中发生的每一件事都有不同的看法。同样，祂对我们困境的解决方案也不同于我们的期望。当你信靠主时，神会为你做最好的事。
在 “神知道什么对你是最好的” 的讲道中，鲍勃牧师和黛比加斯夫人 Rev. Bob & Mrs. Debby Gass 引用了箴言 Proverbs 19:21 来解释 “我们可能并不总是理解事情发生的原因” 的情况。这句箴言向我们揭示了人心有许多计划，但只有主的旨意才能实现。鲍勃牧师继续解释说： “魔鬼会引诱我们陷入细节。” 然而，对于我们这些被神救赎的孩子来说，祂会深入细节来拯救我们！当你下定决心做某件事却没有成功时，感到失望是人的本性。在这种情况下，你需要记住两件事：1. 你总是在有限的信息下工作。你可能知道你想要的最终结果是什么，但神知道什么对你最好，并会相应地制定计划，正如先知在以赛亚书 Isaiah 46:9-10 中向我们传达神的话一样，祂说：“… 我是神 … （1） （我）从起初知道结局 … 我的目的必成就，我的目的必成就”；（2）试图在神的旨意之外行事就像试图用叉子挖穿一堵坚固的墙。如果你强行做你想做的事，那么你就不是在挖一条出狱的路，而是在挖一条进入监狱的路。你真的想执行神未命定的计划吗？你能依靠神知道什么对你最好吗？正如先知在以赛亚书 Isaiah 14:27 中向我们的信徒保证的那样： “万军之耶和华有一个计划，谁能阻止呢？他的手已经伸出，谁能转回呢？”
暂时的失望总比最终的结果无法控制还要好。以旧约中的以色列人为例。以色列人出埃及的故事记载了这一点：“祂 … 神从仇敌手中救赎他们 … 那时他们信了祂的话，歌颂祂。然而，他们很快就忘记了祂的作为，不愿等候祂的指引。他们 … 在旷野试探神。正如诗篇 Psalm 106:10、12-15 所记载的，神应允了他们的祈求，却降瘟疫在他们中间。” 因此，我们必须信靠神，祂会给你最好的。幸运的是，我们有这位天父，祂知道什么对我们最好。祈求大家都能跟随主、信靠主到底，也求神怜悯施恩典我们，按着箴言 Proverbs 3:5-6 神的话来引导自己，也得要圣灵的带领，接受能得到神恩赐的地方：“你要专心仰赖耶和华，不可倚靠自己的聪明，在你一切所行的事上都要认定他，他必指引你的路。”
今日灵粮 Spiritual FOOD TODAY the verse we are sharing today is Isaiah 55:8-11, where the prophet Isaiah conveys and emphasizes that our God Father’s thoughts are completely different from our thoughts. Our sovereign God has a different view of everything that happens in our lives. Likewise, His solution to our dilemmas is different from what we expect. When you trust the Lord, God will do what is best for you.
In their sermon “God Knows What’s Best for You,” Rev. Bob & Mrs. Debby Gass quoted Proverbs 19:21 to explain the situation where “We May Not Always Understand Why Things Happen.” This proverb reveals to us that the human heart has many plans, but only the Lord’s will can be realized. Rev. Bob went on to explain, “The devil will tempt us into the details.” However, for us, God’s redeemed children, He will go into the details to save us! It is human nature to feel disappointed when you set your mind to do something and it does not work out. In this case, you need to remember two things: 1. You are always working with limited information. You may know what you want the end result to be, but God knows what is best for you and will plan accordingly, as the prophet conveys God’s words to us in Isaiah 46:9-10, saying, “... I am God … (I) I know the end from the beginning ... My purpose will come to pass, my purpose will be accomplished”; (2) Trying to act outside of God’s will is like trying to dig through a solid wall with a fork. If you force your way into doing what you want, then you are not digging a way out of prison, but a way into prison. Do you really want to carry out God’s unordained plans? Can you rely on God to know what is best for you? As the prophet assured us believers before in Isaiah 14:27: “The LORD of hosts has a plan, who can stop it? His hand is stretched out, who can turn it back?”
It is always better to be disappointed temporarily than to end up in an outcome that is beyond our control. Take the example of the Israelites in the Old Testament. The story of the Israelites' Exodus from Egypt records this: "He ... God redeemed them from the hands of their enemies ... Then they believed his words and sang praises to him. However, they soon forgot his deeds and were unwilling to wait for his guidance. They ... tested God in the wilderness. As recorded in Psalm 106:10, 12-15, God answered their request but sent a plague among them." Therefore, we must trust God and He will give you the best. Fortunately, we have this heavenly Father who knows what is best for us. Pray that everyone can follow and trust in the Lord to the end, and continue pray that God will have mercy and grace on us to guide ourselves according to God's words in Proverbs 3:5-6, receive the guidance of the Holy Spirit, and accept the places where God's gifts can be received: "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight."
