പഠനം

   

1 Tada Mojsije s Izraelcima zapjeva ovu pjesmu Jahvi u slavu: "U čast Jahvi zapjevat ću, jer se slavom proslavio! Konja s konjanikom u more je survao.

2 Moja je snaga, moja pjesma - Jahve jer je mojim postao izbaviteljem. On je Bog moj, njega ja ću slaviti, on je Bog oca moga, njega ću veličati.

3 Jahve je ratnik hrabar, Jahve je ime njegovo.

4 Kola faraonova i vojsku mu u more baci; cvijet njegovih štitonoša more crveno proguta.

5 Valovi ih prekriše; poput kamena u morske potonuše dubine.

6 Desnica tvoja, Jahve, snagom se prodiči; desnica tvoja, Jahve, raskomada dušmana.

7 Veličanstvom svojim obaraš ti protivnike; puštaš svoj gnjev i on ih k'o slamu proždire.

8 Od daha iz tvojih nosnica vode narastoše, valovi se u bedem uzdigoše, u srcu mora dubine se stvrdnuše.

9 Mislio je neprijatelj: 'Gonit ću ih, stići, plijen ću podijelit', duša će moja sita ga biti; trgnut ću mač, uništit' ih rukom svojom.'

10 A ti dahom svojim dahnu, more se nad njima sklopi; k'o olovo potonuše silnoj vodi u bezdane.

11 Tko je kao ti, Jahve među bogovima, tko kao ti sija u svetosti, u djelima strašan, divan u čudima?

12 Desnicu si pružio i zemlja ih proguta!

13 Milošću svojom vodio si ovaj narod, tobom otkupljen, k svetom tvom Stanu snagom si ga svojom upravio.

14 Kada to čuše, prodrhtaše narodi; Filistejce muke spopadoše.

15 Užas je srvao edomske glavare, trepet je obuzeo moapske knezove i tresu se svi koji žive u Kanaanu.

16 Strah i prepast na njih se obaraju; snaga tvoje ruke skamenila ih je dok narod tvoj, Jahve, ne prođe, dok ne prođe narod tvoj koji si otkupio.

17 Dovest ćeš ih i posaditi na gori svoje baštine, na mjestu koje ti, Jahve, svojim učini Boravištem, Svetištem, o Jahve, tvojom rukom sazidanim.

18 Vazda i dovijeka Jahve će kraljevati."

19 Kad su faraonovi konji, njegova kola i konjanici sašli u more, Jahve je na njih povratio morske vode pošto su Izraelci prošli posred mora po suhu.

20 Tada Aronova sestra, proročica Mirjam, uze bubanj u ruku, a sve žene pridruže joj se s bubnjem u ruci i plešući.

21 Mirjam je začinjala pjesmu: "Zapjevajte Jahvi jer se slavom proslavio! Konja s konjanikom u more je survao."

22 Pokrene Mojsije Izraelce od Crvenog mora i pođu na put kroz pustinju Šur. Tri su dana putovali pustinjom, a vode nisu našli.

23 Dođu k Mari, ali nisu mogli piti vode kod Mare jer je bila gorka. Stoga se i zove Mara.

24 Narod je mrmljao na Mojsija i govorio: "Što ćemo piti?"

25 A on zazva Jahvu. Jahve mu pokaže neko drvo. Baci on to drvo u vodu i voda postane slatka. Tu im Jahve postavi zakon i pravo i tu ih stavi u kušnju.

26 Zatim reče: "Budeš li zdušno slušao glas Jahve, Boga svoga, vršeći što je pravo u njegovim očima; budeš li pružao svoje uho njegovim zapovijedima i držao njegove zakone, nikakvih bolesti koje sam pustio na Egipćane na vas neću puštati. Jer ja sam Jahve koji dajem zdravlje."

27 Zatim stignu u Elim, gdje je bilo dvanaest izvora i sedamdeset palma. Tu se, uz vodu, utabore.

Does God Use Commitment Devices?

വഴി Todd Beiswenger


നിങ്ങൾ ശ്രവിക്കുമ്പോൾ ബ്രൗസിംഗ് തുടരാൻ, ഒരു പുതിയ വിൻഡോയിൽ ഓഡിയോ പ്ലേ ചെയ്യുക.

Ever heard of a commitment device? Basically it is a method of ensuring we succeed in an area where we would otherwise fail. A common one is to buy an expensive gym membership as a way of motivating us to go to the gym. I came across one example of a commitment device that was where a general set up his army with their backs to a body of water, thus preventing them from retreating. He was committing them to an attack. And it worked. The story reminded me of God parting the Red Sea for the Children of Israel... and made me wonder, "Does God use commitment devices?" I think He does. And I'll tell you why.

6472. The nature of the influx of both kinds of life - the life of thought and the life of the will coming from the Lord - has been made known to me through revelation. That is to say, I have been shown that the Lord flows in in two ways - indirectly by way of heaven, and from Himself directly - and that the influx from Himself is both into the rational levels of a person's mind, which are his interior ones, and into the natural levels of it, which are his exterior ones. What flows in from the Lord is the good of love and the truth of faith, for what goes forth from the Lord is Divine Truth holding Divine Good within it. But the way a person receives them varies, that is to say, his particular character determines how they are received.

[2] The Lord does not compel a person to accept what flows in from Himself but leads him in freedom; and so far as the person allows He leads him by means of freedom to good. Thus the Lord leads a person in accordance with his delights. He also leads him in accordance with his illusions and resulting false assumptions; but from these He gradually leads him away, though it seems to the person as though he leads himself away. Thus the Lord does not shatter those assumptions, for that would violate the person's freedom, which must of necessity exist if a person is to be reformed, 1937, 1947, 2875, 2876, 2881, 3145, 3146, 3158, 4031. The fact that the Lord flows into a person in this way - not only indirectly by way of heaven, but also from Himself directly, both into the interior levels of a person's mind and into the exterior ones - is an arcanum that has remained unknown up to now.
