【诗114:8】祂叫磐石变为水池，叫坚石变为泉源。 【Psa 114:8】Who turned the rock into a pool of water, the flint into a spring of water.

诗篇 114 篇是赞美神带领以色列人出埃及并引导他们经过旷野的伟大作为的诗篇。当祂的子民在旷野没有水喝时，神成就了不可能的事，就是祂使水从磐石中涌出来。Psalm 114 celebrates God’s mighty acts in bringing Israel out of Egypt and leading them through the wilderness. When His people had no water, God did the impossible—He brought water out of a rock. 祂使坚硬的岩石变成了源源不绝的水泉，在神子民眼中看来是绝不可能的事，在神却是绝对的可能。The hard flint became a flowing spring. What was impossible for His people was completely possible for God. 这位叫磐石出水的神今天依然与我们同在。当我们看不到前面的道路时，我们可以相信，在祂没有难成的事。The same God is with us today. When we cannot see a way forward, we can trust that nothing is too hard for Him.

新约圣经开启了更深层的含义。The New Testament gives this picture an even deeper meaning. 保罗说，以色列人“都喝了一样的灵水；所喝的，是出于随着他们的灵磐石；那磐石就是基督”（哥林多前书 10:4）。 Paul says that Israel “drank from the spiritual rock that accompanied them, and that rock was Christ” (1 Corinthians 10:4). 基督是我们的磐石，是我们生命的源头。Christ is our Rock and the source of the life we need. 耶稣也应许说，信祂的人，从他腹中要流出“活水的江河”来，这是指着圣灵说的（约翰福音 7:38–39）。Jesus also promised that whoever believes in Him will have “rivers of living water” flowing from within, referring to the Holy Spirit (John 7:38–39).

因此，艰难的境遇不仅可以叫我们经历神的大能与供应，更可以叫我们得以被更新和改变。Therefore, difficult circumstances are not only places where we experience God’s power and provision; they can also become places of transformation. 借着艰难环境，我们里面的惧怕、忧虑、负面的想象，猜疑，判断、失望，和那些凭自己的想法都会暴露出来。Through them, God exposes fear, worry, negative imagination, pre-judging, disappointment, and thoughts that are independent of Him. 当我们把愿意这些不属于祂的心思意念钉上到十字架并信靠祂时，圣灵就会更新我们的心思意念，神要借此训练我们能像祂儿子耶稣基督一样去想问题和行动。As we bring these thoughts to the Cross and trust Him, the Holy Spirit will renew our minds and trains us to think and act like Christ.那些看似艰难和干旱的环境，恰恰可以成为我们更深认识基督、让祂的生命从我们里面更自由地流淌出来的机会。The very situations that seem dry and difficult can become places where we know Christ more deeply and His life flows more freely through us.

祷告 | Prayer

主啊，祢是使不可能变为可能的神。Lord, You are the God who makes the impossible possible. 当我面对看似艰难和绝望的境况时，求祢帮助我祷告与恐惧、忧虑、负面的像想、预先判断、失望，和每一个凭自己想出来的意念争战，并将它们钉在十字架上When I face situations that seem hard and hopeless, help me to push back fear, worry, negative imagination, pre-judging, disappointment, and every thought that is independent of You, and nail them to the Cross. 求祢帮助我坚信在祢凡事都能。 Help me to trust that You are able. 在每一个艰难的境况中，求祢带领我操练转离旧有的思维模式，信靠祢的话语，学会像祢的儿子基督一样去想和行动。Through every hard situation, train me to turn away from my old ways of thinking, trust in Your Word, and learn to think and act like Your Son, Christ. 圣灵啊，求祢用祢的活水充满我心中每一个干旱的地方，更新我，让祢的生命活水从我里面流淌出来，给他人带来供应与祝福。 Holy Spirit, fill every dry place in my heart with Your living water, change me, and let Your life, Your living water, flow through me to bring refreshment and blessing to others.

奉基督的名祈求，阿们。In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
