10月10日 我怎知道?

父啊,天地的主,我感谢你!因为你将这些事向聪明通达人就藏起来,向婴孩就显出来。(太十一25)

在属灵的关系上,没有渐长这回事;有就有,没有就是没有。神并不是愈来愈洗清我们的罪,而是我们若行在光中,一切罪就除掉了。问题是顺服与否,若顺服,那关系就随即完全了。只要一秒钟不顺服,黑暗与死亡就随即作工。

神所有的启示全都是隐密的,不能靠哲学或思想开启;只有靠顺服,才向我们开启。一顺服,亮光就来。不是牵肠挂肚地要进入真理,乃是要浸在真理中,好叫他能在你里面作工。要认识真理,就只有靠重生,而不是靠追寻。顺服神告诉你的事,下一步他就会向你显明。关于圣灵的工作,我们可以读万卷书,但只要有五分钟的完全顺服,事情就明朗如目光。“我想总有一天会明白的。”其实你如今就可以明白,不是靠研究,乃是靠顺服。一点点的顺服,就能打开天门,神深奥的真理就立即属于你了。你若尚未顺服神向你启示的真理,他不会再向你显示更多真理。要当心变得“聪明通达”。“人若立志遵着他的旨意行,就必晓得...”(约7:17)

祈祷◆噢,主啊,愿我从肉体和心灵的各种污秽中自洁;除去属灵生命中所有的粗糙品质,以致我可以在满足的喜乐中,在你里面居住。

October 10 Whereby Shall I Know?

“I thank Thee, 0 Father . . . because Thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.” Matthew 11:25

In spiritual relationship we do not grow step by step; we are either there or we are not. God does not cleanse us more and more from sin, but when we are in the light, walking in the light, we are cleansed from all sin. It is a question of obedience, and instantly the relationship is perfected. Turn away for one second out of obedience, and darkness and death are at work at once.

All God's revelations are sealed until they are opened to us by obedience. You will never get them open by philosophy or thinking. Immediately you obey, a flash of light comes. Let God's truth work in you by soaking in it, not by worrying into it. The only way you can get to know is to stop trying to find out and by being born again. Obey God in the thing He shows you, and instantly the next thing is opened up. One reads tomes on the work of the Holy Spirit, when one five minutes of drastic obedience would make things as clear as a sunbeam. “I suppose I shall understand these things some day!” You can understand them now. It is not study that does it, but obedience. The tiniest fragment of obedience, and heaven opens and the profoundest truths of God are yours straight away. God will never reveal more truth about Himself until you have obeyed what you know already. Beware of becoming “wise and prudent.”
