– 教会的分歧 教会的分歧: 民数记 32 篇，诗篇 114 (刘美莲姐妹) 研读: 民数记 32 篇，诗篇 114 观察: 在民数记 32 中，吕便人和迦得人看到雅谢和基列的土地适于放牧，并希望在那里定居，而不是在应许之地。 诗篇 114 让我想起我们全能的上帝，出埃及记——以色列人穿越红海和约旦河。 我还观察到上帝的所有创造物——海洋、河流、山脉和丘陵都敬畏他。 尽管如此，我们无所不能的慈爱和仁慈的上帝将永远在那里平息我们混乱的局面并给我们平安。    应用: 虽然神可能会显明祂对我们的计划，一步一步带领我们，但我们现在通常看不到最后美好完美的结果，因为这些步骤在我们眼中可能看起来很艰难，就像要过约但河去接管迦南人的财产一样。 一路上，我们可能会遇到几乎立竿见影的“收获”，就像适合吕便人和迦得人牲畜的雅谢和基列地一样。 一路上我们需要耐心等待上帝的带领，即使旅途可能很艰难。 我们不应该气馁，也不应该被短期利益所诱惑。 行为: 我需要花时间祷告，在我的决定中寻求上帝的指引。 我需要相信上帝的计划总是更好，因为祂的道路和意念比我的更高。 我需要顺服并全心全意地跟随他，对祂有耐心，以经历祂为我安排的最终完美结果。 祈祷: 亲爱的天父，祢确实是全能的、威严的、信实的，值得我信赖。 父神，我祈求祢继续保守我的心、意念和作为，让我不被短期的“收益”所诱惑，而是全心全意地遵循祢完美的旨意。 父神，当我身处混乱的处境时，我祈求祢的平安。 奉耶稣的名，阿门！
