19/05/2022
引言:
神终必审判残暴傲慢者,使祂的子民苦尽甘来。所以,神的百姓都要称谢这位信实施恩的神!
一、称谢神信实的作为 (V1-5)
1. 神应许的必要成就(V1-3)
神在‘古时所定’的就是祂永不改变的祸福原则。不论那些不敬畏神的外邦人是何等的富贵,但最终都要被神审判,要敬畏降服于大能的神。
真正信靠神的人,是确信神的应许必要成就的人!
2. 神作贫困人的保障(V4-5)
神是恶人的审判者,却是贫穷困乏人的保障与避难所!那些信靠神的困苦者,神应许必会保护他们! 神能叫强暴的变成软弱。靠势行恶的人,最终神会使他们好像热气被云影消化。
在我们刚强的时候,要保持谦卑爱主的心,就会一直蒙福。因为主就是福气的源头。
二、称谢神奇妙的救恩(V6-9)
1. 因神救恩欢喜快乐 (V6,9)
这段经文是讲神为万民预备奇妙的救恩!以赛亚预言神在圣山上为万民摆设筵席。所有神拣选的儿女,有一天将要与神同在,享受永恒的欢乐筵席。
今天我们能够有得救的盼望,能够在这地上享受天国的满足喜乐,全是因着神的救恩!
2. 因神救恩得胜死亡 (V6-8)
神的筵席也是庆祝‘死亡’被吞灭的胜利。万民无法逃脱的死亡命运,在这里预言神将要结束死亡! 因为主耶稣的复活要得胜死亡!所有相信主的也要得到胜过死亡的胜利!并且一切眼泪也会被擦去,所有羞辱痛苦和无知,也要被除去!
三、称谢神公义的审判(V10-12)
这里让我们看到,V10 神的手按在在祂的子民身上,祂的脚却践踏在摩押身上。是要让我们记得,在末世的时候神既有恩典也有审判,神是施恩也是公义的神。因为摩押是骄傲抵挡神的代表。骄傲的人不要参加神的筵席,不领受神的恩典,就只能掉入粪堆,在粪池中挣扎。
神公义的审判提醒我们,不管怎么坚固,神都能倾倒拆平,神都要审判除掉!这是神命定的!
总结:称谢信实施恩的神!
因为神应许的必要成就!因着神的救恩,我们得以欢喜快乐地永远与神同在! 得以享受神国永恒丰盛的筵席!
Isaiah 25: Praise God for His Grace and Faithfulness
GK611 Morning Devotion

Speaker: IP Daniel Kew
Introduction:
God will judge the tyrannical and arrogant, and bring sweetness to His people who have suffered. Therefore, God's people should praise this God who is gracious and faithful.
I. Praise God for His Faithful Deeds (V1-5)
1. The fulfilment of God's promises (V1-3)
What God has "ordained in ancient times" is His unchanging principle of good and bad. No matter how rich and noble those Gentiles who do not fear God are, they will eventually be judged by God, and they must fear and surrender to the mighty God.
Those who truly trust God are those who are confident that God's promises will be fulfilled!
2. God being the protection of the poor (V4-5)
God is the judge of the wicked, but the protection and refuge of the poor and needy! Those who trust God but in distress, God promises to protect them! God can make the strong become weak. Those who rely on power to do evil, God will eventually make them as if the heat is absorbed by the shadow of the cloud. When we are strong, if we keep our hearts in humility and love the Lord, we will always be blessed. Because the Lord is the source of blessings.
II. Praise God for His wonderful salvation (V6-9)
1. Rejoice in God’s salvation (V6, 9)
This verse speaks of the wonderful salvation that God has prepared for all nations! Isaiah prophesied that God would prepare a feast for all nations on the holy mountain. All of God's chosen children will one day enjoy an eternal feast of joy with God.
Today we can have the hope of being saved and enjoy the fullness and joy of the kingdom of heaven on this earth, all because of God’s salvation!
2. Victory over death by God's salvation (V6-8)
God's feast is also a celebration of the victory over death. The inescapable fate of death prophesied here that God will end death! Because the resurrection of the Lord Jesus will overcome death! All who believe in the Lord will also have victory over death! And all tears will be wiped away, all shame, pain and ignorance will also be taken away!
III. Praise God for His righteous judgment (V10-12)
Here we see that V10 God's hand is on His people, but His foot is trampled on Moab. It is to remind us that in the last days, God has both grace and judgment, and God is a God of grace and justice. Because Moab’s arrogant was a representation of against God. Proud people should not participate in the feast of God, and if they do not receive God's grace, they can only fall into the dunghill and struggle in the cesspool.
God's righteous judgment reminds us that no matter how strong it is, God can topple it and tear it down, and God will judge and remove it! This is ordained by God!
Conclusion: Praise God for His Grace and Faithfulness!
Because what God has promised must be fulfiled! Because of God's salvation, we can be joyfully with God forever! To enjoy the eternal feast of the kingdom of God!
