【有神保护谁也伤不了】

主讲: 陈惠菁传道

引言：保护令

一、神透过人施行保护（v1-17）

1.约拿单的使人和睦（v1-7）

当扫罗公然的表明要杀大卫后，约拿单身为大卫的知己，除了通知大卫藏身以外，他也挺身而出的向父亲扫罗替大卫说好话。并强而有力地指出父亲要杀死大卫，在神面前是流无辜人的血，自己取罪的行为。扫罗也听了约拿单的劝诫，起誓不杀大卫。

当危机临到，在必要时刻，神是会兴起人来成为我们的帮助，使我们脱离仇敌的吞噬和杀害。此外，我们更要效法约拿单，当看到弟兄姐妹有冲突，或当有人来向你投诉某某人时，要作为神使人和睦的桥梁。使人和好并修复关系。

2.米甲血气肉体的爱（v11-16）

当大卫又再大败非利士人时，扫罗又被恶魔辖制。派人在大卫的房屋那里窥探他，再扬言要杀大卫。大卫的新婚妻子米甲很爱大卫，因此违背父亲的命令，将大卫从窗户里缒下去；大卫就开始了逃亡的生涯。米甲虽然爱夫心切，却是一个属肉体的人。她以家中的神像用被遮盖在床上，骗扫罗说大卫生病了。当父亲责问时，她又因为惧怕而一再的说谎，实际上是不恰当的行为。

弟兄姐妹，我们会不会为了爱某些人而在真理上妥协呢？或当遇到压力或惧怕时，就失去了当有的原则，做出不符合真理，出于血气和体贴肉体的决定？

3.撒母耳的属灵遮盖（v17）

大卫被扫罗追赶，来到拉玛投靠撒母耳。神借着撒母耳在大卫逃难时给了他属灵的遮盖。圣灵也亲自保护大卫，免受扫落的追杀。属灵权柄的遮盖是神在地上给属祂的儿女所赐给下的保护之一。

二、透过圣灵亲自保护（v8-10，19-24）

1. 避开恶魔的攻击（v8-10）

大卫虽知道扫罗想置他于死地，依然忠心的服事他。不止继续除灭非利士人，就是当恶魔又降在扫罗身上，大卫还是希望能用手弹琴为他驱魔。试问这样忠心善良的人，神怎么会不保护呢？因为有神的保护，v10扫罗用枪想要刺透大卫，可是枪却刺入墙内，钉在墙上，伤不了大卫。

2. 圣灵使仇敌羞愧（v19-24）

扫罗被自己想要杀大卫欲望所冲昏了头脑。纵然所派去的3批人已经被神的灵拦阻了杀大卫的计划，他依然没有认清对手是谁？亲身往拿约去，结果他不但也受感说预言，更是自己脱了衣服，一昼一夜赤身露体的躺卧在那里，自取其辱。

当一个人不断抗拒神的旨意时，最终是会自食其果的自取羞辱。反之，如果我们是敬畏神，走在神的心意里。纵使被欺负，受委屈。就如神的灵亲自拯救陷在困境中的大卫一样，我们要相信圣灵也必为我们伸张公义，还我们公道的。

此外，充满嫉妒、仇恨、邪恶中的扫罗，却能说预言，所以一个很有恩赐的人，不代表他的属灵生命就很成熟。但成熟的生命会使恩赐发挥得更有果效。所以，我们要渴慕恩赐，更是要追求生命。

总结：选择被神保护

神已经赐下了属天，100%的保护令来保护我们。关键是要被神100%的保护，我们就要选择让生命对齐神。更是要像约拿单、撒母耳那样，成为桥梁，让神的保护令能够延伸到有需要的人身上。让我们所爱的人也有神保护，谁也伤害不了！

1 Samuel 19 With God's protection, no one can hurt you

Introduction：Personal Protection Order

1. God's protection through man (v1-17)

(1) Jonathan's Reconciliation (v1-7) When Saul openly stated that he wanted to kill David, Jonathan, as David's confidant, not only told David to hide, but he also stood up to his father Saul and spoke favourably of David. And he forcefully pointed out that his father's intention to kill David was an act of shedding innocent blood and taking his own sin before God. Saul also listened to Jonathan's admonition and swore not to kill David.

When a crisis arrives, God will raise up people to be our helpers in the necessary moments to save us from being devoured and killed by our enemies. Furthermore, we are to follow Jonathan's example and act as God's bridge of reconciliation when we see our brothers and sisters in conflict or when someone comes to you with a complaint about someone. It is to reconcile and restore relationships.

(2) Michal's blood and fleshly love (v11-16)

When David again defeated the Philistines again in another great defeat, Saul was again under the dominion of the devil. He sent men to spy on David at his house and threatened to kill him again. Michal, David's new wife, loved David so much that she disobeyed her father's order and let David down through the window; David was on the run. Although Michal loved her husband, she was a carnal person. She lied to Saul that David was sick by covering his bed with clothes and the idol of the house. When her father rebuked her, she lied again and again out of fear, which was actually inappropriate behaviour.

Brothers and sisters, do we compromise on the truth in order to love certain people? Or when under pressure or fear, do we lose our principles and make decisions that are not in accordance with the truth and are made out of blood and flesh?

(3) Samuel's spiritual covering (v17)

David was pursued by Saul and came to Samuel at Ramah. God through Samuel gave David spiritual covering as he fled. The Holy Spirit also personally protected David from Saul's pursuit. Spiritual covering is one of the protections that God gives to His children on earth.

2. Personal Protection through the Holy Spirit (v8-10, 19-24)

(1) Avoiding Demonic Attacks (v8-10)

David served Saul faithfully even though he knew that Saul wanted to kill him. Not only did he continue to destroy the Philistines, but when the demons came back upon Saul, David still wished to play the harp with his hands to deliver him. How could God not protect such a faithful and kind man? Because of God's protection, v10 Saul tried to pin David with his spear, but the spear went into the wall and was nailed to the wall and could not hurt David.

(2) The Holy Spirit puts enemies to shame (v19-24)

Saul was overwhelmed by his desire to kill David. Even though the 3 groups of men he had sent had been stopped by the Spirit of God from killing David, he still did not recognize who his opponent was? He went to Naioth himself, and as a result, not only was he also inspired to speak prophetically, but he also stripped himself and lay there naked for a day and a night, making a fool of himself.

When a person continually resists God's will, they end up with a self-inflicted self-humiliation. On the contrary, if we are God-fearing and walk in the will of God. Even if we are bullied and aggrieved. Just as the Spirit of God Himself saved David from his predicament, we must believe that the Holy Spirit will do justice for us and return justice to us.

Furthermore, Saul, who was full of envy, hatred and evil, was able to prophesy, so a very gifted person does not mean that his spiritual life is mature. But a mature life makes the gifts more fruitful. Therefore, we need to desire the gifts, but even more so, we need to pursue the life.

Conclusion: Choose to be protected by God

God has given a heavenly, 100% protection order to protect us. The key is to be 100% protected by God, we have to choose to align our lives with God. More than that, we have to be bridges like Jonathan and Samuel, so that God's protection order can be extended to those in need. Let those we love also have God's protection and no one can hurt them!
