Intimacy With God – 与上帝的亲密关系

Intimacy With God

与上帝的亲密关系

“And they heard the voice of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God amongst the trees of the garden. And the Lord God called unto Adam, and said unto him, where art thou? …Genesis 3:8-9.”

“他们听见耶和华上帝走在园子里的声音在起了凉风的日子里，亚当和他的妻子就躲在园子的树林里，躲避耶和华上帝的面。耶和华神呼唤亚当，问他说，你在哪里呢？…创世记 3：8-9。

The call of God throughout the bible is one of Intimacy. God knew man had sinned but still, he wanted intimacy with his creation. God is not lonely, he doesn’t need company but desires and wants it with his creation.

贯穿圣经的上帝呼召是亲密的呼召。上帝知道人犯了罪，但他仍然希望与他的创造物亲密。上帝并不孤独，他不需要陪伴，而是渴望并希望与他的创造物在一起。

All of God’s choicest saints in both the Old Testament and New Testament, had a deep and intimate relationship with God, Look at some of them and think how would:

在旧约和新约中，上帝所有最拣选的圣徒都与上帝有着深厚而亲密的关系，看看他们中的一些人，想想会怎样：

Joseph have coped with betrayal and prison

Moses have coped with the children of Israel’s complaining

David coped with the uprising of his own son

Daniel coped with the lion’s den

约瑟应对了背叛和监狱 摩西应付了以色列后代 得抱怨，大卫应付了他自己儿子的起义 ，但以理应付了狮子坑，原因是他们与上帝有着深厚而亲密的关系。

The reason is that they had a deep and intimate relationship with God. They didn’t hide from God as Adam and Eve but ran to God (Read Jeremiah 33:3).

他们没有像亚当和夏娃那样躲避上帝，而是跑到上帝面前（请读耶利米书33：3）。

Men and women who sinned in the Old Testament did so because they lost that intimacy with God. Look at David, Moses, and others. They took their eyes off the Lord and fell headlong into sin and failure. As we go into the New Testament we see people like Peter failing because he lost that intimacy with God, for a short time.

在旧约《圣经》中犯罪的男人和女人之所以犯罪，是因为他们失去了与上帝的亲密关系。看看大卫、摩西和其他人。他们把眼光从主身上移开，一头扎进罪恶和失败中。当我们进入新约《圣经》时，我们看到像彼得这样的人失败，因为他在短时间内失去了与上帝的亲密关系。

It is not enough to go to church on Sunday. The Christian life is a deep, intimate relationship with God. As the Holy Spirit lives in you, your holiness will increase as He works in your heart.

星期天去教堂是不够的。基督徒的生活是与上帝建立深厚、亲密的关系。当圣灵住在你里面时，当他在你心中工作时，你的圣洁就会增加。

Daily and minute by minute intimacy with God happens when you take everything to God in prayer. You can cast all your care upon him because He cares for you. God promises to come and have deep and intimate fellowship with those, who open the door of their lives. James 4:8 says, “Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. God is calling you and wanting to have a deep and intimate fellowship with you.

当你在祷告中把一切都带到上帝面前时，每一天和每一分钟与上帝的亲密关系就会发生。你可以把所有的关心都卸给他，因为他关心你。神应许会来，与那些打开他们生命之门的人有深厚而亲密的团契。雅各书4：8 说：“你们要亲近神，神也必亲近你们。”上帝在呼唤你，并希望与你有深厚而亲密的团契。
