引言:

箴言总是在对比义人的福和恶人的祸。进入箴言28章,让我们从一个正面的角度去看义人所要承受的祝福!

一、义人始终站立的祝福

1.得平安(V1)
义人因行在正路,所以他就活在平安中,刚强壮胆没有惧怕。

2.得完全(V5,10,21,28)
义人因看中神的公义,就不愿引人行恶,徇私枉法,所以他的生命就从得救进入到了完全!

3.得尊荣(V12,23,24)
义人因着敬畏神,他就不愿活在虚晃中,愿意讲出实话的他,最终必得着尊荣。

4.得怜恤(V13)
神眼中的义人并不是不会犯错的人,而是愿意承认自己过犯,并愿意悔改的人,这样的人必蒙神蒙人的怜恤。

5.得拯救(V14,17,18,26)
敬畏人的义人在一切的患难中,必蒙神的拯救!

二、义人谨守律法的祝福

1.世代有传承(V2,7)
君王能够把神的律法传承下去,国家就必能够长存下去;孩子能够谨守神的话语,就必能够传承父母所为他存留的产业。

2.不随波逐流(V4)
谨守神话语的人不会随波逐流,对人阿谀奉承,而是会为了真理而争战到底!

3.祷告蒙垂听(V9)
谨守神话语的人祂就拥有大的属灵权柄,所以他就按着神的心意去祷告,而最终他的祷告必要蒙神垂听。

三、义人必不缺乏的祝福

1.领受转移来的财富(V8)
在末后,神要把财富转移给那些愿意祝福别人的人身上。

2.有能力去怜恤穷人(V3,15,27)
义人必蒙神赐福,有能力去祝福贫穷人,而不至于因为缺乏而去欺压他人。

3.有充充足足的智慧(V6,11)
义人不一定大富大贵,然而神必赏给他充充足足的智慧。

4.过踏实安稳的生活(V19,20,22)
义人明白赚取钱财不能急功近利,他会踏踏实实地工作和生活,所以他能够活出安稳。

5.没有贪婪心中喜乐(V16,25)
义人心中没有贪婪,所以他能够在神所赐给他的一切里满足,并活出一个平安和喜乐的生命。

总结:

箴言4:18但义人的路,好像黎明的光,越照越明,直到日午。

义人的路虽有挑战,然而神必充充足足地供应给他所需用的一切,使他能够战立得住。而且对于义人的生命,最终不单是他自己蒙神所赐福而已,他也要把这一份祝福带给下一代,让下一代也能够来承接神所赐给他的一切丰盛的产业!

Proverbs 28: The blessings that the righteous will receive
GK611 Morning Devotion
24/2/2023
Speaker: IP Moses + Rev David Tan

Introduction:

Proverbs is always contrasting the blessings of the righteous with the woes of the wicked. Enter Proverbs 28 and let's get a positive perspective on the blessings the righteous will endure!

1. The blessing that the righteous always stand

(1) To have peace (V1)
The righteous man lives in peace, strong and courageous without fear, because he walks in the right way.

(2) To be perfected (V5,10,21,28)
The righteous man, because he sees the righteousness of God, does not want to lead others to do evil or to show favoritism, so his life passes from salvation to perfection!

(3) To be honoured (V12,23,24)
The righteous man who fears God does not want to live in vanity, but is willing to tell the Truth, will ultimately be honoured.

(4) Receive mercy (V13)
The righteous man in the sight of God is not a man who does not sin, but a man who is willing to confess his faults and repent, and such a man will receive God's mercy from all men.

(5) Receive salvation (V14,17,18,26)
The righteous man who fears man will be saved by God from all his troubles!

2. The blessing of the righteous to keep the law

(1) Inheritance from generation to generation (v2,7)
If a king can pass on the law of God, the nation will endure; if a child can keep the Word of God, he will be able to pass on the inheritance his parents have reserved for him.

(2) Not to follow the crowd (V4)
He who keeps the Word of God does not follow the crowd and flatter people, but fights for the Truth to the end!

(3) Prayers are heard (V9)
He who keeps God's Word has great spiritual authority, so he prays according to the heart of God, and ultimately his prayers will be heard by God.

(4) To live a steady and stable life (V19,20,22)
The righteous man understands that he cannot be in a hurry to earn money, but he works and lives in a practical way, so he can live in peace.

(5) Joy in heart without greed (V16,25)
The righteous man has no covetousness in his heart, so he can be content in all that God has given him, and live a life of peace and joy.

Conclusion:

Proverbs 4:18 But the path of the just is like the shining sun, that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day.

The path of the righteous has its challenges, but God will provide him with all he needs to be able to stand. And the life of a righteous man is not only blessed by God for himself, but he will also bring this blessing to the next generation, so that the next generation may also receive all the abundant property that God gives!
