司布真每日靈修(日) Morning by Morning

一月三十日

經文: 「你聽見桑樹梢上有腳步的聲音，就要急速前去。」(撒母耳記下五：24)

基督徒應常保持儆醒禱告的心，時刻祈求聖靈膏抹他們的心，並求上帝的國度早日降臨，也就是「願您的旨意行在地上，如同行在天上」(太六：10)上帝似乎特別喜歡錫安，對他們而言，蒙喜的日子，有如聽到桑樹上有腳步聲。
<BR> 我們必須比以往格外的火熱禱告，格外地殷勤服事主，因為五旬節的聖靈要澆灌在渴慕聖靈的信徒身上。基督徒們，在你們的靈程中，總有一些時候，你們會特別聽到桑樹梢的聲音；你的禱告特別有能力，你特別感到聖靈同在的喜樂，聖經成為一本活的書，上帝的應許成為隨時可支取的支票，你行走在上帝的面光中，與耶穌有親密的溝通，中間毫無隔閡攔阻。信徒們，現在正是奮起的時刻，現在正是消除惡習的時候，上帝的靈要幫助你化軟弱為剛強，化冷淡為積極火熱。


Morning, January 30

Scripture: "When thou hearest the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees, then thou shalt bestir thyself."(2 Samuel 5:24)

The members of Christ's Church should be very prayerful, always seeking the unction of the Holy One to rest upon their hearts, that the kingdom of Christ may come, and that his "will be done on earth, even as it is in heaven;" but there are times when God seems especially to favour Zion, such seasons ought to be to them like "the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees." We ought then to be doubly prayerful, doubly earnest, wrestling more at the throne than we have been wont to do. Action should then be prompt and vigorous. The tide is flowing—now let us pull manfully for the shore. O for Pentecostal outpourings and Pentecostal labours. Christian, in yourself there are times "when thou hearest the sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees." You have a peculiar power in prayer; the Spirit of God gives you joy and gladness; the Scripture is open to you; the promises are applied; you walk in the light of God's countenance; you have peculiar freedom and liberty in devotion, and more closeness of communion with Christ than was your wont. Now, at such joyous periods when you hear the "sound of a going in the tops of the mulberry trees," is the time to bestir yourself; now is the time to get rid of any evil habit, while God the Spirit helpeth your infirmities. Spread your sail; but remember what you sometimes sing—

"I can only spread the sail;
Thou! Thou! must breathe the auspicious gale."
Only be sure you have the sail up. Do not miss the gale for want of preparation for it. Seek help of God, that you may be more earnest in duty when made more strong in faith; that you may be more constant in prayer when you have more liberty at the throne; that you may be more holy in your conversation whilst you live more closely with Christ.
