时刻需要神的带领
诗篇三十二篇
1得赦免其过、遮盖其罪的，这人是有福的！
2凡心里没有诡诈、耶和华不算为有罪的，这人是有福的！
3我闭口不认罪的时候，因终日唉哼而骨头枯干。
4黑夜白日，你的手在我身上沉重；我的精液耗尽，如同夏天的干旱。〔细拉〕
5我向你陈明我的罪，不隐瞒我的恶。我说：“我要向耶和华承认我的过犯。”你就赦免我的罪恶。〔细拉〕
6为此，凡虔诚人都当趁你可寻找的时候祷告你；大水泛溢的时候，必不能到他那里。
7你是我藏身之处，你必保佑我脱离苦难，以得救的乐歌四面环绕我。〔细拉〕
8我要教导你，指示你当行的路；我要定睛在你身上劝戒你。
9你不可像那无知的骡马，必用嚼环辔头勒住牠，不然，就不能驯服。
10恶人必多受苦楚；惟独倚靠耶和华的，必有慈爱四面环绕他。
11你们义人应当靠耶和华欢喜快乐；你们心里正直的人都当欢呼。
信息分享
但我们却要知道以下这几个要点：
1. 神已应许，祂必带领祂的儿女。
2. 每个基督徒都不仅有一位人生向导（圣灵），还有一部人生指南（圣经）。
3. 神的带领，绝不会与祂的话语相违。
4. 当神带领我们作决定后，我们的内心必有平安。倘若你仍忐忑不安，就不要先行动。
请留意，我们除了在跟从神的带领时会得到平安；当我们等候神，让祂按自己的时间和方式向我们显明祂的心意时，也同样会得着平安。
我们在生活上的每一方面，都要配合神的时间，只是我们并不觉察而已。许多时候，神已向我们显明祂的心意，但是当我们行动时，却发现大门紧闭。当神的时间一到，大门就会打开，祂的旨意就要成就。当祂的旨意与祂的时间配合，神就会很快行动。
我们最需要在日常生活中寻求神的带领，这是我们行事的根据。约翰卫斯理说过：「一般而言，神的带领方式是让我想到许多如此行事的理由。」
我们还要记着，神对他人的心意，未必就是对你的心意。神给你的朋友开绿灯，却可能给你亮红灯。你当然要为你的朋友们祷告；但同时却要为自己的生命寻求神的旨意。这是最重要的。
每天早上，当你将生命交托给主的时候，祈求祂带领你度过一天，然后便安静信靠祂的带领。到日之将尽，回望一天的时候，无论你察觉神的带领与否，都该为当天所经历的一切，感谢祂的带领。
GUIDANCE -OUR CONTINUING NEED
Psalm 32
1 Blessed is he whose transgression is forgiven,
Whose sin is covered.
2 Blessed is the man to whom the LORD does not impute iniquity,
And in whose spirit there is no deceit.
3 When I kept silent, my bones grew old
Through my groaning all the day long.
4 For day and night Your hand was heavy upon me;
My vitality was turned into the drought of summer. Selah
5 I acknowledged my sin to You,
And my iniquity I have not hidden.
I said, “I will confess my transgressions to the LORD,”
And You forgave the iniquity of my sin. Selah
6 For this cause everyone who is godly shall pray to You
In a time when You may be found;
Surely in a flood of great waters
They shall not come near him.
7 You are my hiding place;
You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah
8 I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go;
I will guide you with My eye.
9 Do not be like the horse or like the mule,
Which have no understanding,
Which must be harnessed with bit and bridle,
Else they will not come near you.
10 Many sorrows shall be to the wicked;
But he who trusts in the LORD, mercy shall surround him.
11 Be glad in the LORD and rejoice, you righteous;
And shout for joy, all you upright in heart!
Message
But there are several points we need to recognise:
1. God has clearly promised to be a guide for his children.
2. As Christians, we not only have a Guide (the Holy Spirit) but we also have a Guide Book (the Bible).
3. God will never guide us contrary to his Word.
4. God's guidance will never bring inner conflict after the decision is made. Never act if you do not have peace concerning the decision made.
Please note however - while peace follows God's guidance you can also have peace while waiting for God to reveal his will in his own time and way.
God's timing is also involved in our lives. This is something we don't always realise. He often reveals his will to us but the door for action remains closed. Then in God's time the door does open and his will is fulfilled. When his will and his time coincide, God can act very quickly.
However it is guidance in every day circumstances we seem to need the most. Here is where 'sanctified common sense' comes in. John Wesley said: 'God generally guides me by presenting reasons to my mind for acting in a certain way.'
Remember also that what may be God's will for someone else may not be God's will for you. A green light for your friend may be a red light for you. While naturally you will pray for your friends, it is God's will for your own life you are seeking. This is most important.
As you commit your life to the Lord each morning, ask him to guide you through that day. Then quietly trust him to do it. At the close of the day as you look back over it, thank him for leading you, consciously and unconsciously in all you have done during the day.
