0716 寻求我圣灵的印证
当你凡事都先寻求我时，你必将面临挑战。有时，你会受到诱惑，听从周围人的建议，而不是听从那在你里面升起、我圣灵的智慧。你必须始终谦卑受教，尊重我放在你生命中作为领袖的人；但你也必须与我建立亲密的个人关系。我的声音必须是你的决定性因素；我的话语必须是你的根基。
事实是，你不可能取悦所有人，你不可能总是得到他人的认可。有些问题太过深奥，他人无法理解。我给你的某些指示，除了你之外，没有人能够明白。有时，甚至连你自己也无法明白！众多的咨询师能为你提供安全感，很多时候，我也会藉着他们来引导你。然而，有时宗教性限制会试图压制我的声音。这就是为什么你必须先与我建立关系。在寻求他人的建议之前，先奔向我；呼求我的智慧，寻求我的引导，胜过任何其他人的指引，我必会使你的脚步清楚明白（或：我必为你指明方向）。跟随你内心的平安，以及我圣灵的带领。
惟愿你们今天能听从祂的声音。不要像在旷野悖逆时那样，硬着心肠惹祂发怒。——希伯来书 3:15
0716 Seek the confirmation of my Spirit.
As you seek me first in all things, you will be challenged. At times, you will be tempted to heed the counsel of those around you instead of the wisdom of my Spirit that rises within you. You must always be humble and teachable, honoring those I’ve placed in your life as leaders, but you must also have an intimate, personal relationship with me. My voice must be the deciding factor. My Word must be your foundation.
The truth is, you cannot please everyone. You cannot expect to always have man’s approval. Some issues are too deep for others to understand. Some instructions that I give you won’t make sense to anyone but you. Sometimes they won’t even make sense to you! There is safety in the multitude of counselors, and very often I guide you through them. However, sometimes the restrictions of the religious will try to suffocate my voice. This is why you must have a relationship with me first. Run to me before you run to the counsel of man. Cry out for my wisdom, for my guidance more than any other, and I will make your steps plain. Follow the peace within and the leading of my Spirit.
If only today you would listen to his voice. Don’t make him angry by hardening your hearts, as you did in the wilderness rebellion. –HEBREWS 3:15
