Rev Daniel Xi An Poon

神在我們未爭戰之前，已經為我們預備道路。祂要我們先用「火石刀」——祂的話語，割除屬肉的、潔淨內裡的，讓心重新屬祂。真正的得勝，不是靠兵器，而是從敬拜開始。當我們降服、脫鞋、敬拜，神就親自成為我們的元帥，引領前行。

今天奉主名砍斷一切埃及的羞辱、破除自我掌控與恐懼，讓神的話語進入，餵養我們的靈人，使我們得醫治、得自由、得更新。

這只是簡化的版本。要領受「原汁原味」的信息，請清晨準時參加天父餐桌分享，讓神的話語每天先喚醒你的靈。

約書亞記 5

約旦河西亞摩利人的諸王和靠海迦南人的諸王，聽見耶和華在以色列人前面使約旦河的水乾了，等到我們過去，他們的心因以色列人的緣故就消化了，不再有膽氣。

2 那時，耶和華吩咐約書亞說：「你製造火石刀，第二次給以色列人行割禮。」 3 約書亞就製造了火石刀，在除皮山那裡給以色列人行割禮。 4 約書亞行割禮的緣故，是因為從埃及出來的眾民，就是一切能打仗的男丁，出了埃及以後都死在曠野的路上， 5 因為出來的眾民都受過割禮，唯獨出埃及以後，在曠野的路上所生的眾民都沒有受過割禮。 6 以色列人在曠野走了四十年，等到國民，就是出埃及的兵丁，都消滅了，因為他們沒有聽從耶和華的話。耶和華曾向他們起誓，必不容他們看見耶和華向他們列祖起誓應許賜給我們的地，就是流奶與蜜之地。 7 他們的子孫，就是耶和華所興起來接續他們的，都沒有受過割禮。因為在路上沒有給他們行割禮，約書亞這才給他們行了。 8 國民都受完了割禮，就住在營中自己的地方，等到痊癒了。 9 耶和華對約書亞說：「我今日將埃及的羞辱從你們身上滾去了。」因此那地方名叫吉甲，直到今日。

10 以色列人在吉甲安營。正月十四日晚上，在耶利哥的平原守逾越節。 11 逾越節的次日，他們就吃了那地的出產，正當那日吃無酵餅和烘的穀。

12 他們吃了那地的出產，第二日嗎哪就止住了，以色列人也不再有嗎哪了。那一年，他們卻吃迦南地的出產。

13 約書亞靠近耶利哥的時候，舉目觀看，不料，有一個人手裡有拔出來的刀，對面站立。約書亞到他那裡，問他說：「你是幫助我們呢，是幫助我們敵人呢？」 14 他回答說：「不是的，我來是要做耶和華軍隊的元帥。」約書亞就俯伏在地下拜，說：「我主有什麼話吩咐僕人？」 15 耶和華軍隊的元帥對約書亞說：「把你腳上的鞋脫下來，因為你所站的地方是聖的。」約書亞就照著行了。

Joshua 5

So it was, when all the kings of the Amorites who were on the west side of the Jordan, and all the kings of the Canaanites who were by the sea, heard that the Lord had dried up the waters of the Jordan from before the children of Israel until we had crossed over, that their heart melted; and there was no spirit in them any longer because of the children of Israel.

2 At that time the Lord said to Joshua, “Make flint knives for yourself, and circumcise the sons of Israel again the second time.” 3 So Joshua made flint knives for himself, and circumcised the sons of Israel at the hill of the foreskins. 4 And this is the reason why Joshua circumcised them: All the people who came out of Egypt who were males, all the men of war, had died in the wilderness on the way, after they had come out of Egypt. 5 For all the people who came out had been circumcised, but all the people born in the wilderness, on the way as they came out of Egypt, had not been circumcised. 6 For the children of Israel walked forty years in the wilderness, till all the people who were men of war, who came out of Egypt, were consumed, because they did not obey the voice of the Lord—to whom the Lord swore that He would not show them the land which the Lord had sworn to their fathers that He would give us, “a land flowing with milk and honey.” 7 Then Joshua circumcised their sons whom He raised up in their place; for they were uncircumcised, because they had not been circumcised on the way.

8 So it was, when they had finished circumcising all the people, that they stayed in their places in the camp till they were healed. 9 Then the Lord said to Joshua, “This day I have rolled away the reproach of Egypt from you.” Therefore the name of the place is called Gilgal to this day.

10 Now the children of Israel camped in Gilgal, and kept the Passover on the fourteenth day of the month at twilight on the plains of Jericho. 11 And they ate of the produce of the land on the day after the Passover, unleavened bread and parched grain, on the very same day. 12 Then the manna ceased on the day after they had eaten the produce of the land; and the children of Israel no longer had manna, but they ate the food of the land of Canaan that year.

13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, a Man stood opposite him with His sword drawn in His hand. And Joshua went to Him and said to Him, “Are You for us or for our adversaries?”

14 So He said, “No, but as Commander of the army of the Lord I have now come.”

And Joshua fell on his face to the earth and worshiped, and said to Him, “What does my Lord say to His servant?”

15 Then the Commander of the Lord’s army said to Joshua, “Take your sandal off your foot, for the place where you stand is holy.” And Joshua did so.
