2024-08-17 周六 神的眼目看顾这地

经文:你们要过去得为业的那地,乃是有山、有谷、雨水滋润之地。是耶和华你神所眷顾的,从岁首到年终,耶和华你神的眼目时常看顾那地。(申十一11-12)

美地上有这么丰富的水,是从那里来的呢?是从谷中,是从山里流出来的。但是谷和山又从那里得到水呢?申命记十一章十一至十二节说到,这地乃是饮天上的雨水。山和谷并不是那源头,天才是源头。所有的活水,所有的水流,都是从天上来的,源头是在天上。为什么是从天上来的呢?同一段圣经告诉我们,这地乃是神所寻找之地,『是耶和华你神所眷顾的。』眷顾的希伯来文就是寻找。神是寻找要得着这地。从岁首到年终,神的眼目时常看顾那地。哦,当你接触基督,享受经历基督,以致祂的生命从你里头涌流出来的时候,你对于神的同在就有何等深的感受!神的同在对你是太真实了。你要看见你是神要寻找的人,也是神所看顾的人。你要经历祂的眼目从岁首到年终,时常看顾你。因为你是在基督里,你在享受基督,你在经历基督。因着你是实际的联于基督,你就不仅经历基督作活水,并且你要享受神的同在。神的眼目要一直看顾你。神所要寻得的就是这块美地。你必须住在这美地上,享受其中的丰富;然后你才能因神的眼目而得着神的同在。

神为这地供应雨水,神的眼目也常在这地,这表征神的同在一直和我们同在,只要我们享受基督作活水,在谷和山中涌流。如果我们在基督里经历享受基督,就可感受到神的喜悦,与祂持续不断的同在。我们若对一个人不高兴,可以把眼目掉转不看他。神也是这样。但是当我们享受基督作这样一块地时,从岁首到年终,神的眼目必一直看顾你;你要一直享受神的同在。神的面光要随着你,因为你经历基督作你的活水,因为你居住在美地。阿利路亚!这就是美地,这地的水是丰富的。

God’s Eyes Are Upon This Land — Deut. 11-11-12

There was so much water in this good land. Where did it come from? It flowed from the valleys and the mountains. But where did the valleys and mountains get the water? Deuteronomy 11:11-12 says that this land drank rain from heaven. Mountains and valleys were not the source, heaven was the source. All living and flowing water came from heaven, and its source was in heaven. Why did it come from heaven? The same passage of Scripture tells us that this land was a land sought by God, which is “the favor of the Lord your God.” The Hebrew word for favor is to seek.

God is seeking to possess this land. From the beginning of the year to the end, God’s eyes are always on the land. Oh, how deeply you feel the presence of God when you contact Christ and enjoy experiencing Christ so that His life flows out of you! God’s presence is all too real for you. You need to see that you are the person God is looking for and the person God cares about. You will experience His eyes always watching over you from the beginning of the year to the end of the year. Because you are in Christ, you are enjoying and experiencing Christ. Because you are related to Christ in a practical way, you will not only experience Christ as the living water, but also enjoy the presence of God. God’s eyes will always be on you. It is this good land that God is looking for. You must live in this good land and enjoy its riches, then you may have God’s presence through His eyes.

God provides rain for this land, and His eyes are always on this land. This means that God’s presence is always with us, as long as we enjoy Christ as the living water flowing in the valleys and mountains. If we experience and enjoy Christ in Christ, we can feel the joy of God and be with Him continuously. If we are unhappy with someone, we can turn our eyes away from him. So is God. But when we enjoy Christ as such a land, God’s eyes will always be on you from the beginning of the year to the end of the year, and you will always enjoy God’s presence. The light of God will follow you because you experience Christ as your living water and because you live in the good land. Hallelujah! This is good land and the water in this land is abundant.
