标 题： 神永恒计划的一部分
经 节： 又说：“我是你父亲的神，是亚伯拉罕的神，以撒的神，雅各的神。”摩西蒙上脸，因为怕看神。（出埃及记三章6节）
神总是用前人的经历，来对我们说话。当神遇到摩西，祂交给他的任务并没有超越前人的任务。在几百年前，神曾给亚伯拉罕、雅各和约伯应许，现在祂要摩西参与祂的事工，实现祂向摩西先祖所应许的约。
这位曾经带领摩西、借着以利亚作工、指示保罗、引领世代男女的神，与现在邀请你参与祂事工的神，是同一位神。你是否感到这份重要性？你是神大能计划中的重要一部分！
我们倾向于只想到现在，我们要马上看到结果，缺乏对永恒的意识。我们的行为，就好像神在邀请我们之前，一点也没有动工。我们期待神透过自己所做的事工，能够完全成就、看到结果。当神要其他人或其他世代，来完成我们所开始的事工，我们会变得没耐心。
摩西了解，自己的事工是承继神几百年来的圣工。当摩西与曾引领自己先祖的神面对面时，他非常谦卑。你是否感受到，自己的生命是神永恒计划的一部分？
A Part of
Somthing Bigger
Moreover He
said, “I am the God of your father–the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac,
and the God of Jacob.” And Moses hid his face, for he was afraid to look
upon God. (Exodus 3:6)
God always speaks to you in the context of what He has done in the lives
of those who have gone before you. When God encountered Moses, He did not give
him an assignment independent of what He had done through those who had
preceded him. God had made promises to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob hundreds of
years earlier, and He was now going to involve Moses in His ongoing activity to
fulfill the covenant He had made with Moses’ forefathers.
The God who led Moses, who worked through Elijah, who directed Paul, who
guided each man and woman of God through the centuries, is the same God who
approaches you to become involved in His work. Do you sense the significance of
that? You are a vital part of something much bigger than yourself!
We tend to think only of the present. We want immediate results and lack
a sense of eternity. We often act as if God had not been working at all where
we are before He approached us. We expect that anything God does through us
will be completed while we can see the results. We become impatient if God
intends to complete what He began in us through another person or even another
generation.
Moses came to understand that his involvement in God’s work was in the
context of hundreds of years of divine activity. When Moses came face to face
with the same God who had guided his forefathers, he was deeply humbled. Do you
sense that your life is a part of God’s eternal purposes?
