The Sound On Top Of Mulberry Tree
全新四年樂活讀經
經文: 歷代志上 14:14-16 大衛又求問神。神說：「不要一直地上去，要轉到他們後頭，從桑林對面攻打他們。你聽見桑樹梢上有腳步的聲音，就要出戰，因為神已經在你前頭去攻打非利士人的軍隊。」大衛就遵著神所吩咐的，攻打非利士人的軍隊，從基遍直到基色。
默想: 大衛帶領以色列人與非利士人打仗，非利士人在利乏音谷擺陣。大衛求問耶和華。耶和華指示大衛，他的軍隊可以給與非利士人迎頭痛擊。耶和華幫助大衛與以色列人打了一個大勝仗。大衛把榮耀歸給耶和華。不久之後，非利士人又來在利乏音谷擺陣，大衛並沒有因為上次勝利的經驗，以及這次情境的類似，就憑著既往的經驗依樣畫葫蘆，直接給與非利士人迎頭痛擊。大衛還是先到耶和華面前求問。結果是耶和華這次給大衛不同的指示。耶和華這次要大衛王採取迂迴戰術，繞到非利士人背後，從桑林對面攻擊非利士人。耶和華且會先派遣天軍在以色列軍隊面前，去擊殺非利士人。大衛遵行耶和華的指示，又打了一個大勝仗。求主幫助我，在服侍時，不要依靠自己過去成功的經驗，而是每次都要謙卑的到耶和華面前禱告，尋求並順服耶和華的啟示與帶領。
題目: 上主告訴大衛「你一聽到樹梢有腳步的聲音，立刻進攻，因為我已經走在你前面去攻擊非利士的軍隊了。」(v15)試想，你曾經歷與神同工時，神卻已在前面為你舖路嗎？
