Streams In the Desert for April 2
"They looked....and behold, the glory of the Lord appeared in the cloud."(Exod. 16:10.
GET into the habit of looking for the silver lining of the cloud and when you have found it, continue to look at it, rather than at the leaden gray in the middle.
Do not yield to discouragement no matter how sorely pressed or beset you may be. A discouraged soul is helpless. He can neither resist the wiles of the enemy himself, while in this state, nor can he prevail in prayer for others.
Flee from every symptom of this deadly foe as you would flee from a viper. And be not slow in turning your back on it, unless you want to bite the dust in bitter defeat.
Search out God's promises and say aloud of each one: "This promise is mine." If you still experience a feeling of doubt and discouragement, pour out your heart to God and ask Him to rebuke the adversary who is so mercilessly nagging you.
The very instant you wholeheartedly turn away from every symptom of distrust and discouragement, the blessed Holy Spirit will quicken your faith and inbreathe Divine strength into your soul.
At first you may not be conscious of this, still as you resolutely and uncompromisingly "snub" every tendency toward doubt and depression that assails you, you will soon be made aware that the powers of darkness are falling back.
Oh, if our eyes could only behold the solid phalanx of strength, of power, that is ever behind every turning away from the hosts of darkness, Godward, what scant heed would be given to the effort of the wily foe to distress, depress, discourage us!
All the marvelous attributes of the Godhead are on the side of the weakest believer, who in the name of Christ, and in simple, childlike trust, yields himself to God and turns to Him for help and guidance. --- Selectred.
On a day in the autumn, I saw a prairie eagle mortally wounded by a rifle shot. His eye still gleamed like a circle of light. Then he slowly turned his head, and gave one more searching and longing look at the sky. He had often swept those starry spaces with his wonderful wings. The beautiful sky was the home of his heart. it was the eagle's domain. A thousand times he had exploited there his splendid strength. In those far away heights he had played with the lightnings, and raced with the winds, and now, so far away from home, the eagle lay dying, done to the death, because for once he forgot and flew too low. The soul is that eagle. This is not its home. It must not lose the skyward look. We must keep faith, we must keep hope, we must keep courage, we must keep Christ. We would better creep away from the battlefield at once if we are not going to be brave. There is no time for the soul to stamplede. Keep the skyward look, my soul; keep the skyward look!
"Keep looking up --- The waves that roar around thy feet, Jehovah-Jireh will defeat, When looking up.
"Keep looking up --- Though darkness seems to wrap thy soul; The Light of Light shall fill thy soul, When looking up.
"Keep looking up ---
When worn, distracted with the fight; Your Captain gives you conquering might, When you look up."
荒漠甘泉 4月2日
“他们…观看，不料，耶和华的荣光在云中显现”（出埃及记十六章10节）黑云当空时，当养成一个习惯：一直看它银色的夹里，不去看它黑色的面子。事情无论怎样糟，不可落到失望的地步。人失望简直等于无望。因为一个失望的人，既不能抵抗仇敌的攻击，又不能为人发出有效的代祷。当逃避这样可怕的仇敌——失望，——尤如逃避一条致命的毒蛇一般。不要在它面前慢慢地转身，除非你愿意一败涂地。在神前搜寻他的应许。既得着了，就用指头指着它说：“神，你曾说过这个。这应许是给我的。”若是你仍感觉怀疑或失望，向神倾心吐意地求他为你斥责欺侮你的仇敌。一等到你全心离开不信和失望，圣灵立刻要复活你的信心，将属天的能力吹入你里面去。起先你也许不觉得有甚么动静，可是你只要决心抵抗每一个偏于疑惑和失望的倾向，你就会看见黑暗的势力败退。哦，巴不得我们的眼睛能看见在黑暗势力后面的神的权能，我们就不会惧怕仇敌的狡猾，恶魔欲使我们落入悲伤，抑郁，灰心，气馁等的各种欺骗，将不值得一顾了。——选。一天，我看见草场上躺着一只重伤的老鹰。它的眼睛仍在射出光来。他慢慢地转过它的头来，再望一望它所渴幕的天空。它以前常在那里疾驰高飞。这美丽的天空是它心目中的老家。它曾千万次在那里表演它的勇力。它曾在高处与闪电同玩，与疾风竞走；现在呢，离家这么远，只因一次不小心飞得太低，就在这里等死。啊，让我们拿老鹰来比我们的心：世界并不是我们的老家。虽然我们在世上受了创伤，但是我们的心还得向着天家。我们应该守住信心，守住盼望，守住勇气，守住基督。如果我们没有勇气，我们还是早些离开战场的好。我的魂哪，你当仰望天！——选。

Streams In the Desert for April 3

"Glorify ye the Lord in the fires."(Isa. 24:15.)

MARK the little word "in" ! We are to honor Him in the trial?in that which is an affliction indeed and though there have been cases where God did not let His saints feel the fire, yet, ordinarily, fire hurts.

But just here we are to glorify Him by our perfect faith in His goodness and love that has permitted all this to come upon us.

And more than that, we are to believe that out of this is coming something more for His praise than could have come but for this fiery trial.

We can only go through some fires with a large faith; little faith will fail. We must have the victory in the furnace. --- Margaret Bottome.

A man has as much religion as he can show in times of trouble. The men who were cast into the fiery furnace came out as they went in?except their bonds.

How often in some furnace of affliction God strikes them off! Their bodies were unhurt?their skin not even blistered. Their hair was unsinged, their garments not scorched, and even the smell of fire had not passed upon them. And that is the way Christians should come out of furnace trials?liberated from their bonds, but untouched by the flames.

"Triumphing over them in it." (Col. 2:15.)

That is the real triumph?triumphing over sickness, in it; triumphing over death, dying; triumphing over adverse circumstances, in them. Oh. believe me, there is a power that can make us victors in the strife. There are heights to be reached where we can look down and over the way we have come, and sing our song of triumph on this side of Heaven. We can make others regard us as rich, while we are poor, and make many rich in our poverty. Our triumph is to be in it. Christ's triumph was in His humiliation. Possibly our triumph, also, is to be made manifest in what seems to others humiliation. --- Margaret Bottome.

Is there not something captivating in the sight of a man or a woman burdened with many tribulations and yet carrying a heart as sound as a bell? is there not something contagiously valorous in the vision of one who is greatly tempted, but is more than conqueror? Is it not heartening to see some pilgrim who is broken in body, but who retains the splendor of an unbroken patience? What a witness all this offers to the enduement of His grace! --- J. H. Jowett.

"When each earthly prop gives under, And life seems a restless sea, Are you then a God-kept wonder, Satisfied and calm and free?"

《荒漠甘泉》4月3日

　　“因你们要在火中荣耀耶和华”（以赛亚书二十四章15节直译）。注意这小字“在”！我们要在火中——试炼中（彼得前书四章12节）——荣耀他。虽然那里是一个受苦的地方，我们要用信心来荣耀他。正是在这里，我们要通过我们完全的信来荣耀他，这信相信正是他的良善和大爱，才允许这一切临到我们。不仅如此，我们更相信试炼过后，我们会有更多赞美和感谢的根据。只有大信心才能通过火的试炼，小信必注定失败，让我们争取烈火中的得胜！——濮登。在困难中的人才能表现他的信心坚决。被投入烈焰中的叁个少年人（但以理的同伴），他们从火焰中出来的时候，和被投进去的时候只有一点不同——他们的捆绑已经解除了。神使他们经过了炉火的试炼，结果毫无损伤——身体不伤，头发不焦，衣裳不变色，也没有火燎气味。前后不同的就是身上缺了捆绑，脸上添了荣光。难怪亵渎神的尼布甲尼撒不得不屈服来赞美荣耀神了。今天基督徒从试炼的炉中出来的时候，也该这样了——脱了捆绑，添上荣光，丝毫不受火的影响。——选。“就仗着十字架夸胜。”（西二：15）这是真正的得胜，从疾病中战胜病魔，从奄奄一息中战胜死亡，从逆境中战胜。必需相信，在奋斗中，有一种使我们胜利的力量。要从试炼之中去获取胜利。基督在他的屈辱中得到胜利。我们的胜利，或许也要从别人认为屈辱的境遇中去发现。——濮登。有许多人压着最重的担子，心中仍满了喜乐，岂非可奇？有许多人在仇敌逼迫攻击之下，仍能得胜有余，岂非可敬？有许多人身体破碎，仍保持着完好的信心，岂非可羡？他们的见证何等美好！——乔怀德（J.H.Jowett）

Streams In the Desert for April 4

"Elisha prayed, and said, Lord, I pray thee, open his eyes, that he may see." (2 Kings 6:17.)

THIS is the prayer we need to pray for ourselves and for one another, "Lord, open our eyes that we may see"; for the world all around us, as well as around the prophet, is full of God's horses and chariots, waiting to carry us to places of glorious victory. And when our eyes are thus opened, we shall see in all events of life, whether great or small, whether joyful or sad, a "chariot" for our souls.

Everything that comes to us becomes a chariot the moment we treat it as such; and, on the other hand, even the smallest trial may be a Juggernaut car to crush us into misery or despair if we consider it.

It lies with each of us to choose which they shall be. It all depends, not upon what these events are, but upon how we take them. If we lie down under them, and let them roll over us and crush us, they become Juggernaut cars, but if we climb up into them, as into a car of victory, and make them carry us triumphantly onward and upward, they become the chariots of God. --- Hannah Whitall Smith.

The Lord cannot do much with a crushed soul, hence the adversary's attempt to push the Lord's people into despair and hopelessness over the condition of themselves, or of the church. It has often been said that a dispirited army goes forth to battle with the certainty of being beaten. We need to understand more of these attacks of the enemy upon our spirits and how to resist them. If the enemy can dislodge us from our position, then he seeks to"wear us out"(Daniel 7:25) by a prolonged siege, so that at last we, out of sheer weakness, let go the cry of victory.

《荒漠甘泉》4月4日

　　“以利沙祷告说，耶和华啊，求你开这少年人的眼目，使他能看见”（列王记下六章17节）这一个祷告，也是我们需要为己为人求神的，“耶和华啊，开我们的眼目，使我们能看见”；因为在我们四围，和当日神人一样，都是火车火马，等待带领我们进入荣耀的胜利。当我们的眼目开启了以后，我们就能看见生活中所有的事情——无论大小，无论顺逆——都是我们进入胜利的“火车”。山一般大的难处，也可以做我们的“火车”，只消我们看它是我们的“火车”；反而言之，芥菜子那样的小事也可以做我们的“极轧闹车”。（印度教中费熙奴偶像所乘之车谓之“极轧闹车”。当车出行时，教徒躺身于地，任轮滚过伤命）。这是我们各人自己定规的。这并不在事情的大小，乃在我们如何去看它。如果我们躺下来，任其滚过，顶小的难处也是我们的“极轧闹车”；如果我们爬上去，乘在上面，天大的难事也是神的“火车”，带领我们进入胜利的。——司密斯（H.W.Smith）神不能重用一个失望的人，因为仇敌的诡计就是尽力将神的子民推入绝望的境地去。常有人说：“垂头丧气的军队出去打仗，结果是稳败的。”这句话一点不错。今天我们需要知道仇敌怎样在我们的里面施行攻击，我们应当怎样去抵挡他。如果仇敌能把我们逐出阵地，他就能“折磨”（但以理书七章二十五节）我们，叫我们全然失败，失去胜利的呼声。所以我们应当怎样小心站牢我们的阵地啊！——选。

Streams In the Desert for April 5

"Thou shalt shut the door upon thee and upon thy sons."(2 Kings 4:4.)

THEY were to be alone with God, for they were not dealing with the laws of nature, nor human government, nor the church, nor the priesthood, nor even with the great prophet of God, but they must needs be isolated from all creatures, from all leaning circumstances, from all props of human reason, and swung off, as it were, into the vast blue inter-stellar space, hanging on God alone, in touch with the fountain of miracles.

Here is a part in the programme of God's dealings, a secret chamber of isolation in prayer and faith which every soul must enter that is very fruitful.

There are times and places where God will form a mysterious wall around us, and cut away all props, and all the ordinary ways of doing things, and shut us up to something Divine, which is utterly new and unexpected, something that old circumstances do not fit into, where we do not know just what will happen, where God is cutting the cloth of our lives on a new pattern, where He makes us look to Himself.

Most religious people live in a sort of treadmill life, where they can calculate almost everything that will happen, but the souls that God leads out into immediate and special dealings, He shuts in where all they know is that God has hold of them, and is dealing with them, and their expectation is from Him alone.

Like this Widow, we must be detached from outward things and attached inwardly to the Lord alone in order to see His wonders. --- Soul Food.

In the sorest trials God often makes the sweetest discoveries of himself. --- Gems.

"God sometimes shuts the door and shuts us in, That He may speak, perchance through grief or pain, And softly, heart to heart, above the din, May tell some precious thought to us again."

《荒漠甘泉》4月5日

　　“关上门，你和你儿子在里面”（列王记下四章4节）他们必须关上门，与世隔别，专一亲近神；因为他们不是靠自然的定律，不是靠世人的方法，不是靠教会的帮助，不是靠先知的神迹；他们必须从可借助的人们，从可靠的环境，从可信的理由中出来，专一到密室中去亲近神。这里就是神课程中的一段，每一个信徒在隔离的密室中操练祷告和信心是非常有效果的。许多时侯，许多地方，神特地在我们四周围一层神秘的墙来环绕我们，不让我们和人的计谋和办法接触；在那里神要我们依靠一个新而出乎常情的办法；绝非旧环境所能适合，在没有进入这个环境之先，亦非事先可以料想；换一句话说，就是在那里神替我们裁一件新式的服装，叫我们穿了像他自己。多数的信徒都过着刻板文章一般的生活，他们知道甚么事情在甚么时侯发生，该用甚么方法对付；但是神抱有特别盼望的信徒，常被神圈在一个隔离的处境中，和一切常情向例断绝，使他们知道只有神在维护他们，他们的希望也惟有仰望于神。让我们像这个寡妇一样：外面与世隔离，里面与神亲近；这样，我们就会看见神的神迹了。——译自《灵食》（SoulFood）　　在最痛的试炼中，神常给你他的最甜。——选。
