沒有風浪是神無法平靜!!!

            我靈修時，我讀民數記21章，第4-5節說: "他們從何珥山起行，往紅海那條路走，要繞過以東地。百姓因這路難行，心中甚是煩躁，就怨讟神和摩西說: 你們為甚麼把我們從埃及領出來，使我們死在曠野呢？這裡沒有糧 (麵包)，沒有水，我們的心厭惡這淡薄的食物。" 我們很容易進入負面想法，然後它進入我們的心，之後，我們的嘴唇就敵擋神而犯罪，說一些不是真的，只是抱怨。負面的想法對我們的魂是不益的，我們需要相信神和祂對我們的應許，不要看環境。

        以賽亞書55章10至11說: "雨雪從天而降，並不返回，卻滋潤地土，使地上發芽結實，使撒種的有種，使吃的有糧。我口所出的話也必如此，決不徒然返回，卻要成就我所喜悅的，在我發他去成就 (或譯所命定) 的事上必然亨通。"
 

神的話語使我得到鼓勵，你們呢?

No wave, God can not Calm!!!

        I just read Numbers chapter 21 for my devotion, verses 4-5 say, ".... But the people grew impatient on the way, they spoke against God and against Moses, and said, "Why have you brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? There is no bread! There is no water! And we detest this miserable food!"" We are so easy to enter negative mind, then it enters our hearts, our lips sin against God, which is no true, just complaim!!! It is not good to our souls, we need to believe God and His promise to us, not bad situation.

 

          As Isaiah 55: 10-11 said, "As the rain and the snow come down from heaaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater, so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it." 

I am encouraged by God's Words. How about you?

Why did Balaam not obey God first time?

           I read Numbers 22, it talked about Balak summons Balaam who was greed, he has asked God, verse 12 said to Balaam, "Do not go with them. You must not put a curse on those peope, because they are blessed." Then Balak offered more, verse 20 said, "Since these men have come to summon you, go with them, but do only what I tell you." Then best scripture verses 21-34, Balaam's donkey saw the angel of the Lord who wanted to kill Balaam, but his donkey saved his life for three times, he beated it for three times. Third time, his donkey lay down under Balaam, and he was angry. (v 27) I saw the donkey was so scared under his master Balaam. It is LOL for that photo, then the Lord opened his donkey mouth, it could defend itself (v 28), then the Lord opened Balaam's eyes, and he saw the angel of the Lord standing in the road with his sword drawn. (v31) Then Balaam made agreement with God, "he must speak only waht God puts in my mouth." (v38)  

 

         Why did Balaam test God? When God said first time, not go with them, he had to ask God again. The result his donkey saved his life that day, but Isrealites still killed him later!!! Love money or things are the root of evil. We must be careful to do things which we can please him who has command to us. We don't need God who said over and over, then we listened.

 

Why do we not listen first time?
