• 找出妨碍我们进入安息的因素

• Identify the factors that hinder us from entering rest

1、预期与现实的差别：不要被冒犯

The gap between expectations and reality: do not be offended

历代志下(2 Chronicles) 15:18 亚撒将他父所分别为圣、与自己所分别为圣的金银和器皿都奉到　神的殿里。

15:18 And he brought into the house of God the things that his father had dedicated, and that he himself had dedicated, silver, and gold, and vessels.

历代志下(2 Chronicles) 16:1 亚撒三十六年，以色列王巴沙上来攻击犹大，修筑拉玛，不许人从犹大王亚撒那里出入。

16:1 In the six and thirtieth year of the reign of Asa Baasha king of Israel came up against Judah, and built Ramah, to the intent that he might let none go out or come in to Asa king of Judah.

16:2 于是亚撒从耶和华殿和王宫的府库里拿出金银来，送与住大马士革的亚兰王便哈达，说：“

16:2 Then Asa brought out silver and gold out of the treasures of the house of the Lord and of the king's house, and sent to Ben–hadad king of Syria, that dwelt at Damascus, saying,

16:3 你父曾与我父立约，我与你也要立约。现在我将金银送给你，求你废掉你与以色列王巴沙所立的约，使他离开我。”

16:3 There is a league between me and thee, as there was between my father and thy father: behold, I have sent thee silver and gold; go, break thy league with Baasha king of Israel, that he may depart from me.

历代志下(2 Chronicles) 16:9 耶和华的眼目遍察全地，要显大能帮助向他心存诚实的人。你这事行得愚昧，此后，你必有争战的事。”

16:9 For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to shew himself strong in the behalf of them whose heart is perfect toward him. Herein thou hast done foolishly: therefore from henceforth thou shalt have wars.

16:12 亚撒作王三十九年，他脚上有病，而且甚重。病的时候没有求耶和华，只求医生。

16:12 And Asa in the thirty and ninth year of his reign was diseased in his feet, until his disease was exceeding great: yet in his disease he sought not to the Lord, but to the physicians.

2、同行伙伴的重要性

The importance of companions along the journey

亚撒的儿子约沙法的信心

20:20 次日清早，众人起来往提哥亚的旷野去。出去的时候，约沙法站着说：“犹大人和耶路撒冷的居民哪，要听我说：信耶和华你们的　神，就必立稳；信他的先知，就必亨通。”

20:20 And they rose early in the morning, and went forth into the wilderness of Tekoa: and as they went forth, Jehoshaphat stood and said, Hear me, O Judah, and ye inhabitants of Jerusalem; Believe in the Lord your God, so shall ye be established; believe his prophets, so shall ye prosper.

20:21 约沙法既与民商议了，就设立歌唱的人颂赞耶和华，使他们穿上圣洁的礼服，走在军前赞美耶和华说：“当称谢耶和华，因他的慈爱永远长存！”

20:21 And when he had consulted with the people, he appointed singers unto the Lord, and that should praise the beauty of holiness, as they went out before the army, and to say, Praise the Lord; for his mercy endureth for ever.

帮助恶人，遭受损失

历代志下(2 Chronicles) 19:2 先见哈拿尼的儿子耶户出来迎接约沙法王，对他说：“你岂当帮助恶人，爱那恨恶耶和华的人呢？因此，耶和华的忿怒临到你。

19:2 And Jehu the son of Hanani the seer went out to meet him, and said to king Jehoshaphat, Shouldest thou help the ungodly, and love them that hate the Lord? therefore is wrath upon thee from before the Lord.

3、学习种子的忍耐

Learning the patience of a seed

但以理书(Daniel) 3:16 沙得拉、米煞、亚伯尼歌对王说：“尼布甲尼撒啊，这件事我们不必回答你。

3:16 Shadrach, Meshach, and Abed–nego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.

3:17 即便如此，我们所侍奉的　神，能将我们从烈火的窑中救出来。王啊，他也必救我们脱离你的手；

3:17 If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.

3:18 即或不然，王啊，你当知道我们决不侍奉你的神，也不敬拜你所立的金像！”

3:18 But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.

马太福音(Matthew) 26:39 他就稍往前走，俯伏在地祷告说：“我父啊，倘若可行，求你叫这杯离开我；然而，不要照我的意思，只要照你的意思。”

26:39 And he went a little further, and fell on his face, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.

4、见证 Testimony
