Jehoshaphat king of Judah (猶大王約沙法)

Mesha king of Moab (摩押王米沙)

1.困境中的出路:

1. 王下3:11約沙法說：「這裏不是有耶和華的先知嗎？我們可以託他求問耶和華。」以色列王的一個臣子回答說：「這裏有沙法的兒子以利沙，就是從前服事以利亞的（原文是倒水在以利亞手上的）。」

   But Jehoshaphat asked, “Is there no prophet of the Lord here, through whom we may inquire of the Lord?” An officer of the king of Israel answered, “Elisha son of Shaphat is here. He used to pour water on the hands of Elijah.
2. 林前10:13你們所遇見的試探，無非是人所能受的。神是信實的，必不叫你們受試探過於所能受的；在受試探的時候，總要給你們開一條出路，叫你們能忍受得住。

   No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.

2.困境中的讚美

1. 王下3:15現在你們給我找一個彈琴的來。」彈琴的時候，耶和華的靈（原文是手）就降在以利沙身上。

   But now bring me a harpist.” While the harpist was playing, the hand of the Lord came on Elisha.” 
2. 哈3:17-19雖然無花果樹不發旺，葡萄樹不結果，橄欖樹也不效力，田地不出糧食，圈中絕了羊，棚內也沒有牛；然而，我要因耶和華歡欣，因救我的　神喜樂。主耶和華是我的力量；他使我的腳快如母鹿的蹄，又使我穩行在高處。

   Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no grapes on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my Savior. The Sovereign Lord is my strength; he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, he enables me to tread on the heights. For the director of music. On my stringed instruments.
3. 詩37:3-5你當倚靠耶和華而行善，住在地上，以他的信實為糧；又要以耶和華為樂，他就將你心裏所求的賜給你。當將你的事交託耶和華，並倚靠他，他就必成全。

   Trust in the Lord and do good; dwell in the land and enjoy safe pasture. Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the Lord; trust in him and he will do this.

3.困境中的順服

1. 王下3:16-17他便說：「耶和華如此說：『你們要在這谷中滿處挖溝；因為耶和華如此說：你們雖不見風，不見雨，這谷必滿了水，使你們和牲畜有水喝。』 

    and he said, “This is what the Lord says: I will fill this valley with pools of water. 17 For this is what the Lord says: You will see neither wind nor rain, yet this valley will be filled with water, and you, your cattle and your other animals will drink.
2. 王下3:18在耶和華眼中這還算為小事，他也必將摩押人交在你們手中。

   This is an easy thing in the eyes of the Lord; he will also deliver Moab into your hands.
3. 加6:9我們行善，不可喪志；若不灰心，到了時候就要收成。

   Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

4. 今天的行動,

   將會為我們打開明天機會的門.

   (Our Action today open the

    doors of opportunity tomorrow)
5. 珥2:23-25錫安的民哪，你們要快樂，為耶和華─你們的　神歡喜；因他賜給你們合宜的秋雨，為你們降下甘霖，就是秋雨、春雨，和先前一樣。禾場必滿了麥子；酒醡與油醡必有新酒和油盈溢。我打發到你們中間的大軍隊，就是蝗蟲、蝻子、螞蚱、剪蟲，那些年所吃的，我要補還你們。

   Be glad, people of Zion,    rejoice in the Lord your God, for he has given you the autumn rains    because he is faithful. He sends you abundant showers,  both autumn and spring rains, as before. 24 The threshing floors will be filled with grain;    the vats will overflow with new wine and oil. 

   25 “I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten—  the great locust and the young locust, the other locusts and the locust swarm— my great army that I sent among you.

   )
6. 林後6:2 因為他說：「在悅納的時候，我應允了你；在拯救的日子，我搭救了你。」看哪，現在正是悅納的時候！現在正是拯救的日子.

   For he says, “In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.
