If you are overtaken by the darkness of night, discouraged and distressed, and want to give up your dedication to God, then learn from Isaiah 41:14. Know your insignificance, trust God’s promised strength, and discard your fear. Behold our universe. If we know we are just insignificant specks, we will shrink in awe at how the Almighty still cares for us (Isaiah 41:14, Psalm 8:4). We are incompetent little worms. God can cast us into total misery just by touching one of our nerves. In pain and sorrow, we see how small and low we are. But this little worm can accomplish anything because the Lord said, “I will help you” (Isaiah 41:14). If we rely on God’s promises, then nothing is beyond us. But God will not help those who think highly of themselves. God’s help comes in times of need. Fear of God brings blessing. However, the fear of man is a snare, trips us, and makes us unfaithful to God. When we doubt our Lord, we deem our omnipotent, faithful, and merciful God as breaking His oath, and we dishonor Him. Cast out fear because fear weakens and torments us. Trust that God will help you (Isaiah 41:14). Confidently follow our Lord with trust and quietly wait for Him to defy the world. You will put a crown on His head. Plant your foot on the immovable rock. Don’t be afraid to attempt great things, for God is with you. Be brave, and you will overcome great challenges. God is faithful to keep His promises to His children. He will help you as He has done before. The more you trust Him, the higher you go, and there is no limit what you can do. However, if you have done big things, be careful. We love flattery and praise, so it’s important to remember He who made your success possible. Be amazed that God has enabled such a worm to achieve accomplishments. Rejoice that He is your God and praise Him (Isaiah 41:15-16). The more you see God’s glory, the more humble you’ll become. Always remember: Not by might, nor by power, but by God’s Spirit (Zechariah 4:6). What an honor it is to be helped by God. 不要惧怕
每当你被黑夜笼罩,灰心丧气,想要放弃对上帝的忠心时,请学习以赛亚书41章14节。认识自己的卑微,相信神所应许的力量,除去自己的恐惧。 放眼我们四围的宇宙。 如果知道自己只是微不足道的尘埃,思想到全能者仍然顾念我们,敬畏之心就会油然而生(以赛亚书41:14,诗篇8:4)。 我们不过是无能的小虫, 上帝只需触动一根小小的神经,就能让我们陷入彻底的悲哀。 在痛苦和悲伤中,人会看到自己是多么渺小和低微。 然而,因为主说:“我会帮助你” (以赛亚书 41:14),这条小虫却能完成任何事。 如果依靠上帝的应许,没有什么不能做到。 但上帝不会帮助那些骄傲的人。 祂的帮助在有需要的时候临到。 敬畏上帝带来祝福, 但对人的恐惧却让我们落入圈套, 绊倒扑地,使我们对上帝不忠。 怀疑主,认为全能、信实和仁慈的上帝违背了祂的誓言时,就是在羞辱祂。 驱除恐惧,因为它使我们软弱,并且折磨我们的身心。 相信上帝会帮助你(以赛亚书 41:14)。 满怀信心地跟随主,安静地等侯祂来挑战这世界,如此就将冠冕戴在祂头上。 当将我们的脚踏在不可动遥的磐石上。不要害怕尝试伟大的事,因为上帝与你同在。 要刚强壮胆, 就可以克服巨大的挑战。神对祂儿女的应许是信实的。 祂会像过去那样帮助你。 越信靠祂,就攀登得越高,再高的山峰都能征服。 但如果你成就了一件大事,要小心谨慎。 人都喜爱奉承和赞美, 所以要记住是上帝让你的成功变为可能。 当为上帝使自己这小虫取得如此成就而惊讶, 因祂是你的上帝而喜乐并赞美祂(以赛亚书 41:15-16)。 越看到上帝的荣耀,你就会变得越谦卑。 总要记得: 不是倚靠势力,不是倚靠才能,乃是倚靠上帝的灵方能成事(撒迦利亚书4:6)。 能得到上帝的帮助何等荣幸!
