外來的幫助

經文: 「我必幫助你。」(以賽亞書四十一：10)

昨天的應許給了我們力量去面對、克服一切的困難，今天的金句則應許我們在孤軍作戰時，能得到幫助。主說：「我必幫助你。」內心的力量，因外來的幫助，更形堅固。上帝可以興起同伴和我們並肩作戰，這是好的；然而，祂若沒賜下人的幫助，祂自己就站在我們身邊，豈不更好？全能的上帝畢竟比有限的人強得多！

祂的幫助總是適時的，尤其我們正陷入困境時；祂的幫助總是智慧的，因祂知道怎樣的幫助對我們最好。人的幫助往往有限，但祂的幫助郤大有果效，而且祂擔當我們重擔，並供應我們一切所需。「上帝若幫助我們，我們還怕誰呢？」

因為祂一向幫助我，我就深信從現在到永遠，祂一定幫助我到底。我的禱告是：「主是我的幫助。」我的經驗是：「聖靈亦幫助我的軟弱。」我的期望是：「我要舉目望山，我的幫助從造天地的耶和華而來。」因此我要唱得勝的凱歌：上帝必幫助我。


Help from Without

Scripture: "Yea, I will help thee"(Isaiah 41:10).

Yesterday's promise secured us strength for what we have to do, but this guarantees us aid in cases where we cannot act alone. The LORD says, "I will help thee." Strength within is supplemented by help without. God can raise us up allies in our warfare if so it seems good in His sight; and even if He does not send us human assistance, He Himself will be at our side, and this is better still. "Our August Ally" is better than legions of mortal helpers.
His help is timely: He is a very present help in time of trouble. His help is very wise: He knows how to give each man help meet and fit for him. His help is most effectual, though vain is the help of man. His help is more than help, for He bears all the burden and supplies all the need. "The LORD is my helper, I will not fear what man can do unto me."
Because He has already been our help, we feel confidence in Him for the present and the future. Our prayer is, "LORD, be thou my helper"; our experience is, "The Spirit also helpeth our infirmities"; our expectation is, "I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, whence cometh my help"; and our song soon will be, "Thou, LORD, hast holpen me."
