 2 ) THE BENEFITS OF KNOWING GOD

Key Verse: “Submit to God and be at peace with Him; in this way prosperity will come to you.” (Job 22:21)

21“अब परमेश्‍वरका अधीनमा हुनुहोस्‌

र उहाँसित मिलाप गर्नुहोस्‌। यसरी तपाईंको सुदिन फर्केर तपाईंकहाँ आउनेछ।

In Job 22:21-29, which section of scripture is introduced by our key verse, we are told of the good, the blessing, the benefits which will come to us if we really know God. Of course, there is a great difference between knowing God and simply knowing about Him. Millions of people know about Him who do not really know Him. There is a theoretical and an experiential knowledge of God, and it is the experiential knowledge of Him which is so vital.

How do we know God? The words “return” and “receive”, in verses 22 and 23 in the Authorised Version, give us the answer. Notice that we return once – that is a crisis; but we go on receiving continually – that is a process.

21“अब परमेश्‍वरका अधीनमा हुनुहोस्‌

र उहाँसित मिलाप गर्नुहोस्‌। यसरी तपाईंको सुदिन फर्केर तपाईंकहाँ आउनेछ।

22उहाँको मुखबाट शिक्षा लिनुहोस्,

र तपाईंले आफ्‍नो हृदयमा उहाँका वचनहरू सञ्‍चय गर्नुहोस्‌।

23नम्रसित तपाईं सर्वशक्तिमान्‌तिर फर्केर आउनुभयो भने,

तपाईंलाई पुनर्स्‍थापना गरिनेछ,

तपाईंले आफ्‍नो घरबाट खराबी त्‍यागिदिनुभयो भने,

24तपाईंले आफ्‍ना सुनका ससाना ढिकाहरू धूलोमा मिलाउनुभयो भने,

ओपीरको सुनलाई खोल्‍साको ढुङ्गासरह मान्‍नुभयो भने,

25सर्वशक्तिमान्‌ नै तपाईंको निम्‍ति सुन हुनुहुनेछ,

र उहाँ नै तपाईंको निम्‍ति सबैभन्‍दा असल चाँदी हुनुहुनेछ।

26तब सर्वशक्तिमान्‌मा नै तपाईंले आनन्‍द पाउनुहुनेछ।

र तपाईंले आफ्‍ना नजर परमेश्‍वरतिर उठाउनुहुनेछ।

27तपाईंले उहाँलाई प्रार्थना गर्नुहुनेछ,

र उहाँले सुन्‍नुहुनेछ, र तपाईंले आफ्‍नो भाकल पूरा गर्नुहुनेछ।

28तपाईंले जे निर्णय गर्नुहुनेछ, त्‍यो पूरा हुनेछ,

तपाईंको बाटोमा ज्‍योति चम्‍कनेछ।

29जब मानिसहरू होच्‍याइन्‍छन्‌ र तपाईंले भन्‍नुहुनेछ, ‘यिनीहरूलाई उचाल्‍नुहोस्,’

र उहाँले होच्‍याइएकालाई बचाउनुहुनेछ।

  1. RETURN – (verse 23). We have wandered from Him (Isaiah 53:6; 6हामी सबै भेड़ाझैँ बरालिएका छौं। हामी हरेक आफ्‍नै बाटोतिर लागेका छौं, र परमप्रभुले उसमाथि हामी सबैको अधर्म हालिदिनुभएको छ। ....................................................... START FROM ........................................
  2. Luke 15:13), and by nature we are “far off”; therefore our first need is to return and be reconciled to Him, to be “brought near” (Ephesians 2:13; 1 Peter 2:25). There is only one way back to God – look up Isaiah 55:6-7.
  3. RECEIVE – (verse 22). Having returned to the Lord we must then receive Him and trust Him as our personal Saviour (John 14:6; Hebrews 7:25; Revelation 3:20). Then we must receive His law and obey His commandments (Joshua 1:8; John 14:15 and 21). Only thus shall we really get to know Him, not only as our Saviour but as our Friend (John 15:14-15); our Sanctifier (1 Corinthians 1:30); our Supplier (Philippians 4:19); and our Keeper (Jude 24) – that is, we shall get to know Him as our all in all (Colossians 3:11).

There are degrees of knowing God. Compare John 14:9 with what Paul said thirty years later – look up Acts 9:4-6 and Philippians 3:10. The measure in which we know God is determined by the measure we receive from Him. The more we receive (hear, obey, “live out”) His Word, the more we shall know Him. What, then, is the good that comes by knowing God? What are the benefits of knowing God?

1. WE SHALL BE BUILT UP

Verse 23 tells us this. In other words, by knowing Him we become spiritually strong, virile, robust men and women – look up Ephesians 6:10. Have you returned to God by receiving Christ as your own personal Saviour? – then look up Colossians 2:6-7 and 2 Peter 3:18. There is no need to be a weak, anaemic Christian. Be the Daniel 11:32 kind!

2. WE SHALL DEAL DRASTICALLY WITH SIN

Verse 23 tells us this. Our bodies are the temples (tabernacles) of God (1 Corinthians 6:19), and when and as we really know God we shall share His hatred of sin and we shall deal with it – look up 2 Corinthians 7:1. A Christian who has light views of sin certainly does not know God very intimately. But, “your tent” may refer not only to the body but to the home and the business. Have we dealt drastically with all sin and every doubtful thing in these “tents”? – look up 2 Chronicles 29:16-17, and compare Psalm 51:6.

3. WE SHALL BE GREATLY ENRICHED

( समृद्ध बनाउनु )

Verses 24 and 25 tell us this. Notice verse 25, “…then the Almighty will be your gold, the choicest silver for you”, so to know Him is to become enriched indeed – gold and silver in abundance – look up Colossians 2:9, and verse 10! If you are a true believer, you are an heir of God and a co-heir with Christ (Romans 8:16-17). Possess your possession (Obadiah 17), and you will experience perfect peace (John 14:27); fullness of joy (John 15:11); power to witness (Acts 1:8); and grace sufficient (2 Corinthians 12:9).

4. WE SHALL DELIGHT IN THE LORD HIMSELF

Verse 26 tells us this. This means that we shall be weaned away from earthly and temporal things, for which we may be very grateful but which will always disappoint, and we shall find our true satisfaction in the Lord Himself, who never changes and who will never disappoint (Hebrews 13:8). As we get to know God, our delight increases in His gifts, His service, His house, but most of all, in Himself! Also, we begin to find a new desire for the things which give Him pleasure – look up Psalm 37:4.

5. WE SHALL RECEIVE ANSWERS TO PRAYER

Verse 27 tells us this. Prayer is the great privilege of every Christian, even the youngest; but the testimony of the whole Bible and of experience proves that it is the people who really know God intimately who receive answers to their prayers – look up 1 John 3:22 and 5:14-15.

6. WE SHALL HAVE A FRUITFUL TESTIMONY

Verses 28 and 29 tell us this. The people who are effective witnesses for the Lord, by life or by lip, are the people who really know Him.

Look at verse 28. If we really know God and are working according to His gracious will, none of our work will be lost – look up Mark 14:8-9; 1 Corinthians 15:58; and Galatians 6:9.
Look at verse 29. What a glorious promise of “results” in our work! – look up Psalm 107:2 and John 3:14-15.

7. WE SHALL HAVE GOD’S SMILE UPON OUR LIFE

Verse 28 tells us this: “and light will shine on your ways”. That speaks of His good pleasure, of His guidance, of His blessing – look up Numbers 6:24-26; Psalm 90:17; Proverbs 4:18 and 10:22. How wonderful!


( 1 ) HOW TO FIND TRUE GOD

Series 1

Key Verses: “For a long time Israel was without the true God, without a priest to teach and without the law. But in their distress they turned to the LORD, the God of Israel, and sought Him, and He was found by them.” (2 Chronicles 15: 3-4)

3धेरै समयसम्‍म त इस्राएल साँचो परमेश्‍वर, सिकाइदिने पूजाहारी र व्‍यवस्‍थाविना थियो। 4तर जब आफ्‍नो कष्‍टमा तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरतिर फर्केर उहाँलाई खोजे, तब तिनीहरूले पाऊन्‌ भनी उहाँ स्‍वयम्‌ प्रकट हुनुभयो।

In this series we are to consider some of the Secrets of Successful Living. Of course, no one can begin to live successfully without knowing God, and first of all we must understand how we can come to know Him for ourselves. The subject is brought before us in 2 Chronicles 15:1-19, and it is pin-pointed in the above key verses.

2 CHR 15:1-19,

1परमेश्‍वरका आत्‍मा ओदेदका छोरा अजर्याहमाथि उत्रनुभयो। 2तिनी आसालाई भेट गर्न निस्‍केर तिनलाई भने, “हे आसा, सबै यहूदा र बेन्‍यामीन, मेरा कुरा सुन। जब तिमीहरू परमप्रभुसँग हुन्‍छौ तब उहाँ पनि तिमीहरूसँग हुनुहुनेछ। तिमीहरूले उहाँलाई खोज्‍यौ भने, उहाँ तिमीहरूबाट भेट्टाइनुहुनेछ। तिमीहरूले उहाँलाई त्‍याग्‍यौ भने उहाँले पनि तिमीहरूलाई त्‍याग्‍नुहुनेछ। 3धेरै समयसम्‍म त इस्राएल साँचो परमेश्‍वर, सिकाइदिने पूजाहारी र व्‍यवस्‍थाविना थियो। 4तर जब आफ्‍नो कष्‍टमा तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरतिर फर्केर उहाँलाई खोजे, तब तिनीहरूले पाऊन्‌ भनी उहाँ स्‍वयम्‌ प्रकट हुनुभयो। 5मानिसहरू आ-आफ्‍ना काममा आउने-जाने गर्दा तिनीहरू सुरक्षित थिएनन्‌। सारा देशका बासिन्‍दाहरूले हुनसम्‍मको कष्‍ट भोग्‍नुपर्‍यो। 6एउटा राष्ट्रले अर्कोलाई अत्‍याचार गर्दै थियो, एउटा सहरले अर्को सहरलाई किनभने परमेश्‍वरले तिनीहरूलाई सबै किसिमका दु:ख दिएर सताउनुभएको थियो। 7तर अब तिमीहरू शक्तिशाली होओ, र तिमीहरूको साहस नघटोस्‌। किनभने तिमीहरूका कामको प्रतिफल तिमीहरूले पाउनेछौ।”

8जब आसाले यी कुरा र ओदेद अगमवक्ताका छोरा अजर्याहको अगमवाणी सुने, तब तिनको साहस बढ़्यो। तिनले सारा यहूदा र बेन्‍यामीन र तिनले कब्‍जा गरेका एफ्राइमका पहाड़ी देशका सहरहरूबाट घिनलाग्‍दा मूर्तिहरू सबै हटाइदिए। तिनले परमप्रभुको मन्‍दिरका दलानको अगि भएको परमप्रभुको वेदी पनि मरम्‍मत गरे।

9त्‍यसपछि तिनले सारा यहूदा र बेन्‍यामीन र एफ्राइम, मनश्‍शे र शिमियोनबाट तिनीहरूसँग बस्‍न आएकाहरूलाई भेला गरे। किनभने परमप्रभु तिनका परमेश्‍वर तिनीसँग हुनुभएको देखेर इस्राएलबाट धेरै संख्‍यामा मानिसहरू तिनीतर्फ आएका थिए।

10आसाका राजकालको पन्‍ध्रौँ वर्षको तेस्रो महिनामा तिनीहरू यरूशलेममा भेला भए, 11अनि त्‍यस बेला तिनीहरूले ल्‍याएको लूटका मालबाट सात सय साँढ़े र सात हजार भेड़ाबाख्रा बलिदान चढ़ाए। 12तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना सारा हृदय र प्राणले परमप्रभु तिनीहरूका पुर्खाहरूका परमेश्‍वरलाई खोज्‍न करार बाँधे। 13अनि परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरलाई नखोज्‍ने सबै ठूला र साना, स्‍त्री र पुरुषलाई मार्ने तिनीहरूले निश्‍चय गरे। 14ठूलो सोरले चिच्‍च्‍याएर तुरही र नरसिङ्गा बजाउँदै तिनीहरूले स्‍वयम्‌ परमप्रभुको शपथ खाएर बाचा बाँधे। 15सारा यहूदा यो शपथ खाएकाले गर्दा आनन्‍दित भए, किनभने तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना पूरा मनले परमेश्‍वरलाई यत्‍नपूर्वक खोजेका थिए। अनि उहाँ पनि तिनीहरूले पाऊन्‌ भनी स्‍वयम्‌ प्रकट हुनुभयो। यसैले परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई चारैतिरबाट सुरक्षित गर्नुभयो।

16आसा राजाले आफ्‍नी बज्‍यै माकालाई पनि राजमाताको पदबाट हटाइदिए, किनभने अशेरा देवीको घिनलाग्‍दो मूर्ति तिनले राखेकी थिइन्‌। आसाले त्‍यो काटेर ढालिदिए, र त्‍यसलाई धूलोपीठो पारेर किद्रोन खोल्‍सामा जलाइदिए।  17डाँड़ाहरूमा भएका अल्‍गा थानहरू इस्राएलमा रहन दिए तापनि आसा आफ्‍नो जीवनकालभरि नै परमप्रभुका विश्‍वासी भइरहे। 18तिनले आफ्‍ना पिता र तिनी आफैले अर्पण गरेका सुन, चाँदी र पवित्र भाँड़ाकुँड़ाहरू परमप्रभुको मन्‍दिरमा ल्‍याए।

19आसाको राजकालको पैँतीसौँ वर्षसम्‍म कुनै युद्ध भएन।

There is only one true God, the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ (2 Corinthians 1:3), and the greatest blessing which anyone can experience in this life is to find the true God, but the greatest tragedy is to pass through life without ever finding Him. In our key verses we have a brief description of one phase of Israel’s history, but it also describes thousands of people throughout the world. Notice how this brief portion of scripture unfolds to give us a sequence of teaching.

2 COR 1:3,  3हाम्रा प्रभु येशू ख्रीष्‍टका परमेश्‍वर तथा पिता, करुणामय पिता, र सबै सान्‍त्‍वनाका परमेश्‍वरलाई प्रशंसा होस्‌। 

 

1. THEY WERE WITHOUT THE TRUE GOD

Verse 3 tells us that this had been true of them “for a long time”. They were Godless, less God – look up Ephesians 2:12. This is a perfect description of multitudes of people today; they are living without God. He does not enter into their thoughts, except in times of emergency, and He has not been welcomed into their lives. The Israelites still believed in the existence of God, and they experienced and benefited from His providences, but for all that they were “without the true God”. We are not told they were without a god, for everyone worships a god of some kind – the god of self, money, pleasure or ambition. These words in verse 3, therefore, are descriptive of many people – “for a long time…without the true God”.

EPH 2:12,  12याद राख, तिमीहरू त्‍यस बेला ख्रीष्‍टबाट अलग, इस्राएलका नागरिक हकबाट बाहिर भएका थियौ, र प्रतिज्ञाका करारहरूबाट बिराना, आशा नभएका र यस संसारमा परमेश्‍वररहित थियौ।

 

2. THEY WERE WITHOUT A TEACHING PRIEST

A “teaching priest” was one whose duty it was to teach the people the truth of God. Who are the teaching priests today? Every faithful preacher and teacher of the Word of God is one of God’s teaching priests. But the majority of people are outside the influence of these teachers and preachers; they do not attend church or listen to an exposition of the scriptures, and they do not read the Bible or the kind of literature which would inform them about the truths of God. In consequence of this, there is an appalling ignorance of the things of God, and the average person knows nothing of God’s way of salvation – look up Ephesians 2:8-10. Many have experienced a taste of “churchianity” or “religiosity”, but very few know the way of salvation as it is revealed in the person of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ – compare

John 14:6 - येशूले तिनलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “बाटो, सत्‍य र जीवन म नै हुँ। मद्वारा बाहेक कोही पनि पिताकहाँ आउन सक्‍दैन।

Acts 4:12 - 12अरू कसैमा मुक्ति छैन, किनकि हामीले मुक्ति पाउनलाई स्‍वर्गमुनि मानिसहरूमा अर्को कुनै नाउँ दिइएको छैन।”

Romans 1:16. - 16किनकि सुसमाचारसँग म शर्माउँदिनँ। किनभने विश्‍वास गर्ने प्रत्‍येकका मुक्तिको निम्‍ति यो परमेश्‍वरको शक्ति हो, पहिले यहूदीहरूका निम्‍ति र अन्‍यजातिहरूका निम्‍ति पनि।

 

3. THEY WERE WITHOUT LAW

Verse 3 tells us this. The priests were the guardians of the law, and to be without a priest meant, therefore, to be without the law. If anyone wanted to know the law in those days he had to go to a priest; but today, thank God! we have His law, His Word, in the Bible. However, the majority of people do not read the Bible, and therefore they are “without (the) law”. The law is God’s standard of what is right and wrong, but the vast majority of people take their standard from the media: (1) the newspaper; (2) the radio; (3) the television; (4) the cinema. Therefore, because God’s standard has been rejected and the world’s, or man’s or the Devil’s standard has been substituted, our civilisation has become increasingly corrupted. The great need today is to get back to the Bible, the true standard, the only book which contains the authentic revelation of God and of His love, His grace, His Son and of His way of saving men and women.

 

4. WHEN TROUBLE CAME THEY TURNED TO THE LORD

Verse 4 tells us this, and from verses 5 and 6 we find that the trouble came because they had left God out of their reckoning and out of their lives. Trouble will always come to nations and to individuals if they reject the Lord. Notice that it was the Lord who sent the trouble; it was His judgment on sin and His loving method of causing them to turn back to Him – see what it says at the end of verse 6. Does God work like this today? He does! He often sends trouble into a man’s life in order that that man, who for many years has lived only for himself, might turn back to the Lord and find Him. The Prodigal had to come to himself before he was ready to come to his father (Luke 15:11-24). For a further illustration of this truth read Psalm 106, where we see that when these people had been severely chastened they turned to the Lord. Then what happened?

(Luke 15:11-24).

11उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “कुनै मानिसका दुई छोरा थिए। 12कान्‍छोचाहिँले बाबुलाई भन्‍यो, ‘पिताज्‍यू, मेरो भागमा पर्ने धन-सम्‍पत्तिको हिस्‍सा मलाई दिनुहोस्‌।’ तब तिनले आफ्‍नो सम्‍पत्ति तिनीहरूलाई बाँड़िदिए।

13 “धेरै दिन बित्‍दा नबित्‍दै सबै धन-सम्‍पत्ति बटुलेर कान्‍छो छोरो टाढ़ा देशमा गयो, र त्‍यहाँ भोग-विलासमा आफ्‍नो सम्‍पत्ति उड़ायो। 14त्‍यसले सबै रुपियाँपैसा खर्च गरिसकेको थियो। त्‍यसै बेला त्‍यस देशमा ठूलो अनिकाल पर्‍यो, र त्‍यसलाई अभाव हुन थाल्‍यो। 15त्‍यो गयो, र त्‍यस देशको एक जना नागरिककहाँ त्‍यसले काम माग्‍यो। उसले त्‍यसलाई आफ्‍नो खेतमा सुँगुरहरू चराउन पठायो। 16सुँगुरले खाने चारोले त्‍यसले आफ्‍नो पेट भर्न चाहन्‍थ्‍यो, अनि कसैले त्‍यसलाई केही दिँदैनथियो।

17 “जब त्‍यसको चेत खुल्‍यो, त्‍यसले भन्‍यो, ‘मेरा बाबुका धेरै ज्‍यालादारी चाकरहरू भरपेट खाएर उबार्ने गर्छन्, तर मचाहिँ भोकले मरिरहेछु। 18म उठेर आफ्‍ना बाबुकहाँ जानेछु, र उहाँलाई भन्‍नेछु, “बुबा, मैले स्‍वर्गको विरुद्धमा र तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा पाप गरेको छु। 19अब उप्रान्‍त म तपाईंको छोरो भनिने योग्‍यको छैनँ। मलाई तपाईंका ज्‍यालादारी चाकरहरूमध्‍ये एउटासरह तुल्‍याउनुहोस्‌’।” 20तब त्‍यो उठेर आफ्‍ना बाबुकहाँ गयो।

“तर त्‍यो धेरै टाढ़ा छँदा त्‍यसका बाबुले त्‍यसलाई देखे, र तिनी दयाले भरिए, र दौड़ेर गई त्‍यसलाई अँगालो हालेर त्‍यसलाई चुम्‍बन गरे।

21 “छोराले तिनलाई भन्‍यो, ‘बुबा, मैले स्‍वर्गको विरुद्धमा र तपाईंको दृष्‍टिमा पाप गरेको छु। म फेरि तपाईंको छोरो भनिने योग्‍यको छैनँ।’

22 “तर बाबुचाहिँले आफ्‍ना कमाराहरूलाई भने, ‘झट्टै सबैभन्‍दा असल वस्‍त्र ल्‍याएर यसलाई पहिराइदेओ। यसको हातमा औँठी, र खुट्टामा जुत्ता लगाइदेओ, 23र पुस्‍टाइराखेको पशु मार, र हामी खाएर आनन्‍द मनाऔं। 24किनकि यो मेरो छोरो मरेको थियो, फेरि जीवित भएको छ, हराएको थियो, र पाइएको छ।’ तब तिनीहरू आनन्‍द मनाउन लागे।

 

5. THEY FOUND THE TRUE GOD

In verse 4 there are three words which tell us how to find God, or, more correctly, how to be found of Him. We must:

TURN from sin and from self (1 Thessalonians 1:9);

किनकि जुन किसिमले हाम्रो स्‍वागत तिमीहरूकहाँ भयो, अनि जीवित र साँचो परमेश्‍वरको सेवा गर्न तिमीहरू मूर्तिहरूबाट परमेश्‍वरतर्फ फर्क्‍यौ, सो त मानिसहरूले नै बताउँछन्‌।


SEEK the Lord and His pardon (Isaiah 55:6-7); 

6जबसम्‍म परमप्रभुलाई पाउन सक्‍छौ उहाँलाई खोज। उहाँ नजिक हुनुहुँदा नै उहाँलाई भेट। 7दुष्‍टले आफ्‍नो बाटो र अधर्मीले आफ्‍नो विचार त्‍यागोस्, र परमप्रभुतिर फर्कोस्, र उहाँले त्‍यसमाथि कृपा गर्नुहुनेछ। हाम्रा परमेश्‍वरतर्फ त्‍यो फर्कोस्, र उहाँले त्‍यसलाई सित्तैमा क्षमा गर्नुहुनेछ।


FIND the true God (2 Chronicles 15:2,4 and 15).

2तिनी आसालाई भेट गर्न निस्‍केर तिनलाई भने, “हे आसा, सबै यहूदा र बेन्‍यामीन, मेरा कुरा सुन। जब तिमीहरू परमप्रभुसँग हुन्‍छौ तब उहाँ पनि तिमीहरूसँग हुनुहुनेछ। तिमीहरूले उहाँलाई खोज्‍यौ भने, उहाँ तिमीहरूबाट भेट्टाइनुहुनेछ। तिमीहरूले उहाँलाई त्‍याग्‍यौ भने उहाँले पनि तिमीहरूलाई त्‍याग्‍नुहुनेछ।

(2 Chronicles 15:4,  तर जब आफ्‍नो कष्‍टमा तिनीहरूले परमप्रभु इस्राएलका परमेश्‍वरतिर फर्केर उहाँलाई खोजे, तब तिनीहरूले पाऊन्‌ भनी उहाँ स्‍वयम्‌ प्रकट हुनुभयो।

(2 Chronicles 15:15, सारा यहूदा यो शपथ खाएकाले गर्दा आनन्‍दित भए, किनभने तिनीहरूले आफ्‍ना पूरा मनले परमेश्‍वरलाई यत्‍नपूर्वक खोजेका थिए। अनि उहाँ पनि तिनीहरूले पाऊन्‌ भनी स्‍वयम्‌ प्रकट हुनुभयो। यसैले परमप्रभुले तिनीहरूलाई चारैतिरबाट सुरक्षित गर्नुभयो।
How wonderfully this little bit of ancient history ends – “He was found by them” (2 Chronicles 15:4 and 15)!

Have you found Him?

– look up Proverbs 8:17.

17मलाई प्रेम गर्नेहरूलाई म प्रेम गर्छु, मलाई खोज्‍नेहरूले मलाई भेट्टाउँछन्‌। ........................................
