В Библии в Притчах 10:3, we read that the Lord will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish. What does it mean that the soul of the righteous shall not hunger?
The soul of the righteous shall not hunger
The Lord will not suffer the soul of the righteous to famish (hunger): but He casts away the substance of the wicked (Пословицы 10:3)
As long as the righteous walk in воля Господня, душа праведника не будет голодать. In most Bible translations, the word ‘soul’ has been left out. In these translations, Написано следующее: 'The Lord will not allow the righteous to hunger'. But if you read it that way, then most believers will think that it means, that the Lord will provide food for the body.
We all know that God is Иегова Ире; the Lord that provides. He will always provide for the spirit, душа, и тело. But you have to be careful that the provisions and assets of life will not become the main purpose in your life.
Do not worry about your life
Иисус говорит, that you shouldn’t be worried about your life. You shouldn’t worry about what you will eat, or drink, nor about your body, to what you will wear. Потому что Иисус говорит, that the gentiles; those who live without God, seek all these things.
The life of the wicked revolves around material things, being successful, и процветание. They are carnal and therefore they are ruled by their flesh; жадность, похоть, и желания. Because of the fact that they are carnal and feed their soul from their flesh, they will never be satisfied.
They sow in their flesh and therefore they will also reap the fruit of the flesh. Which will result in the fact, that their lusts, жадность, and cravings will only increase. The Lord despises this way of living, and therefore He casts away the substance of the wicked.
Ищите прежде всего Царства Божьего и Его праведности
Иисус говорит, that you shouldn’t be worried about a thing. Но….there is something you have to do first, и то есть:
Seek ye first the kingdom of God, и Его праведность; и все это приложится вам (Мэтью 6:33)
The entrance to the Father, and to His Kingdom is through Jesus Christ. When you come to Him and believe in Him, your soul shall no longer hunger, or thirst, because Jesus is the Bread of life (Джон 6:35)
When you find the Kingdom of God, by His grace, через Иисуса Христа, and when youродиться заново в духе, you shall belong to the Kingdom of God. The next step is to seek His righteousness. This means to get to know His will, so that you will walk in His will; doing His will instead of yours.
You have been made holy and righteous by the blood of Jesus. Because you have been made holy and righteous, you should also walk in holiness and righteousness.
The righteous shall not hunger
When you take His words, ты будешь питать свой дух. Словом, вы узнаете Его волю, and shall learn how to walk.
Если выwalk after His will, you shall automatically walk in His commandments, в святости и праведности. Если вы люби Бога превыше всего, like you say you do, you shall please Him by соблюдая Его заповеди. You shall apply His words to your life. Your actions prove if you really love Him or not.
Если ты любишь меня, соблюдай Мои заповеди (Джон 14:15)
As long as you seek those things which are above, instead of seeking the things of this world, and feed yourself with the Word of God, и делайте то, что Слово велит вам делать, then your soul will not hunger.
As long as you do the воля Иисуса, что также является волей Отца, in your life and do His work, your soul will not hunger.
In the mean while his disciples prayed Him, говоря, Владелец, есть. But He said unto them, I have meat to eat that ye know not of. Therefore said the disciples one to another, Hath any man brought him ought to eat? Иисус говорит им, My meat is to do the will of Him that sent Me, and to finish His work (Джон 4:31-35)
Когда вы рожденный свыше верующий your spirit shall not hunger anymore. Your spirit shall reign in your life and your soul shall be controlled by the spirit, instead of the flesh. The soul shall be satisfied and filled because the Lord shall not permit that the soul of the righteous shall hunger.
