 360  中翻英  (60)        "Yet you refused to come to me and have life" (John 5:40)                                                                          然而你們不肯到我這里來得生命。」（約5:40）        4/18/2023

四月十八日曠野筵席上有道極度鮮味的菜餚---到主那裡去得生命。但是我們這罪人却不肯來到主那裡。主內的訪友請放下世上的誘惑，帶著主復活的大能去作見證，見證主如何使您我藉由祂的大愛及大能使我們得到新生命。 

「她對儿子說, "器皿都滿了，再給我拿器皿來。" 儿子回答，"再沒有器皿了。" 油就止住了。」  （列王記下 4:6  新國際版）

上帝的大能是甘受我們的容器度量所限制的。聖靈的膏油是按著人為祂所預備的量度容器而涌流。上帝的祝福，是根据人信道的心志來限量而賜下。先知以利沙在另一處曾如此說,「要在這谷中滿處挖溝，因為主如此說，你們雖不見風，不見雨，但在祂眼中這谷必滿了水，這還算為小事，祂也必將摩押人交在你們手中。」（王下 3:16-18）人沒有力量去多得祂定規所賜的那一份祝福，但人卻可以自己定規去少取他可能獲得的祝福。「然而你們不肯到我這里來得生命。」（約5:40）

" ' The vessels were full, "

' she said to her son, ' Bring me another vessel.'  Her son answered, 'There is no more vessel.'  The oil stopped." (2 Kings 4:6)

God's power is willing to be limited by our measured capacity. The anointing oil of the Spirit of God flows according to the measured container which man has prepared for Him. God's blessings are bestowed according to the limits of human faith.  In another placeof the Bible, the prophet Elisha said, "Dig ditches all over this valley, for thus says the LORD, although you see neither wind nor rain, this valley will be filled with water, and this is a small thing in the eyes of the LORD, He will also deliver Moab into your hands." (2 Kings 3:16-18) Man has no power to get more of what God has determined to give, but a man can make his own determination to take less of what he may get bless. "Yet you refused to come to me and have life" (John 5:40)
