标 题：神与你同在
经 节：万军之耶和华如此说：在那些日子，必有十个人从列国诸族中出来，拉住一个犹大人的衣襟，说：“我们要与你们同去，因为我们听见神与你们同在了。”（撒迦利亚书八章23节）
神渴望以祂自己的灵充满祂的百姓，好叫其他人可以在祂的百姓身上，认出祂大能的同在。在信徒的生活中，神的同在应该是十分明显的。当全能神的灵充满信徒，信徒不可能继续过著从前的日子，而其他人也会因之看到神。
神借着先知撒迦利亚晓谕祂的百姓，祂的同在会改变他们的生命。如果神的百姓紧密地与神同行，列国诸族会听说他们是一群认识神的百姓。在地上，人们会从各国到祂的百姓中间寻找真神。如果人们看到神其中的一个儿女，他们会渴望自己能与他或她在一起，因为如此就能与神在一起。神给了十个人想亲近一个信徒的鲜明画面，他们渴望找到神。
基督的同在应该清楚地彰显在你的生活中，以至于你周遭的人想亲近你。他们会让自己的儿女与你的儿女在一起，因为你的儿女是在敬虔的环境下成长。你的雇主应该非常欣赏你；人们会想找你作领袖，因为知道你在神的面前持守正直。你的生活与家庭应该如吸引人的磁铁，因为人们感受到神与你及你的家人同在。如果你允许自己的生活中，更显明地有基督的同在，就会有更多人亲近你，寻求神。
God Is with You
Thus says the LORD of hosts: “In those days ten men from every language of the nations shall grasp the sleeve of a Jewish man, saying, ‘Let us go with you, for we have heard that God is with you.’ ” (Zechariah 8:23)
God’s desire is to fill His people with His Spirit so that others recognize His powerful presence in them. The presence of the Lord in a believer’s life ought to be obvious. When the Spirit of almighty God fills a believer, the believer cannot go on living as before. Others will see God.
God told His people through the prophet Zechariah that His presence ought to make a difference in their lives. If God’s people walked closely with Him, people from every language and every part of the world would hear that they were a people who knew God. People would come from every nation on earth to find the true God among His people. If the people saw a child of God, they would long to be with him or her because in so doing they would be with God. God gave the vivid picture of ten people clinging to one believer, hoping to find God.
Christ’s presence ought to be so evident in your life that the people around you are drawn to you. They should want their children to be with your children because your children are being raised with a godly influence. Employers ought to want you in their workplace; people should seek you for their leader because they know you as someone of integrity before God. Your life and your home ought to be a magnet for people as they sense God’s presence with you and your family. The more you allow Christ to make His presence evident in your life, the more people will draw near you and find Him.
