PROSPERITY ｜ 亨通

ENPROSPERITY. Its self-trusting, God-forgetting effect: Ps. 30:6. And in my prosperity I said, I shall never be moved. Ps. 55:19. Because they have no changes, therefore they fear not God. Jer. 22:21. I spake unto thee in thy prosperity; but thou saidst, I will not hear. Jer. 48:11. Moab hath been at ease from his youth, and he hath settled on his lees. Hos. 13:6. According to their pasture, so were they filled; they were filled, and their heart was exalted; therefore have they forgotten Me. Other hurtful results: Eccl. 5:12. The sleep of a laboring man is sweet, whether he eat little or much: but the abundance of the rich will not suffer him to sleep. Ps. 73:3. For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked. How prosperity is to be received: Eccl. 7:14. In the day of prosperity be joyful, but in the day of adversity consider (literally, "In the day of good, be in good"—that is, use it as it should be used).

BSBEcclesiastes 7:14 In the day of prosperity, be joyful, but in the day of adversity, consider this: God has made one of these along with the other, so that a man cannot discover anything that will come after him.

中亨通。它使人自恃、忘记神的效应：诗篇 30:6 —— 至于我，我凡事平顺，便说：我永不动摇。55:19 —— 因他们没有改变，所以不敬畏神。耶利米书 22:21 —— 你兴盛的时候，我对你说话；你却说：我不听。48:11 —— 摩押自幼年以来常享安逸，如酒在渣滓上澄清。何西阿书 13:6 —— 这些民照我所赐的食物得了饱足；既得饱足，心就高傲，忘记了我。其他的害处：传道书 5:12 —— 劳碌的人不拘吃多吃少，睡得香甜；富足人的丰满却不容他睡觉。诗篇 73:3 —— 我见恶人和愚妄人享平安，就心怀不平。当如何领受亨通：传道书 7:14 —— 遇亨通的日子，你当喜乐；遭患难的日子，你当思想。（直译作『在好的日子里，就在好中』——意即当照其本当的用法去用它。）

ENSecret of true prosperity: 1 Kings 2:2, 3. Be thou strong therefore, and shew thyself a man; and keep the charge of the Lord thy God, to walk in His ways, to keep His statutes, and His commandments, and His judgments, and His testimonies, as it is written in the law of Moses, that thou mayest prosper in all that thou doest, and whithersoever thou turnest thyself. Job 36:11. If they obey and serve Him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures. Prov. 3:13-18. Happy is the man that findeth wisdom . . . Length of days is in her right hand; and in her left hand riches and honor. Her ways are ways of pleasantness, and all her paths are peace. Divine caution and counsel: Deut. 6:10-12. When thou shalt have eaten and be full; then beware lest thou forget the Lord, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt. Deut. 32:46, 47. Set your hearts unto all the words which I testify among you this day, which ye shall command your children to observe to do, all the words of this law. For it is not a vain thing for you; because it is your life: and through this thing ye shall prolong your days.

BSBProverbs 3:17 All her ways are pleasant, and all her paths are peaceful.
