12权柄的祷告是与作得胜者有关系的。基督徒如果不知道这个,就不能作得胜者。我们要记得,坐在宝座上的是神,是我们的主耶稣,服在宝座下面的是仇敌。唯有祷告能转动神的能力。神的能力没有一个能够转动它,只有祷告。所以祷告是顶需要的。如果不祷告的话,就不能好好地作得胜者。知道什么是权柄的祷告,才知道什么是祷告。得胜者最要紧的工作,就是把宝座上的权柄带到地上来。今天只有一个宝座—神的宝座—是掌权的,是远超过一切的。要有分于那权柄,就必须祷告;所以祷告是十分需要的。凡能动宝座的,就必定能动一切。我们必须看见基督升天是远超过一切的,我们必须看见万有都服在祂的脚下,因此我们可以用这宝座的权柄来管理一切,因此我们每一个都必须学会这权柄的祷告(倪柝声文集第二辑第二册,二三○至二三三页)。
12Prayer with authority has much to do with the overcomers. If a Christian does not know this, he cannot be an overcomer. We have to remember that God and the Lord Jesus are on the throne, while the enemy is under the throne. Only prayer can activate the power of God. Nothing can activate God’s power except prayer. This is why prayer is indispensable. If one does not pray, he cannot be an overcomer. Only after one knows to pray with authority will he know what prayer is. The most important work of the overcomers is to bring the authority of the throne to earth. Today there is a throne, the throne of God. This throne is ruling, and it is far above everything. In order to have a share in this authority, one must pray. Hence, prayer is very necessary. Those who can move the throne can move everything. We must see that Christ’s ascension has made Him far above all things, and we must see that all things are under His feet. For this reason, we can rule over all things with the authority of the throne. All of us have to learn to pray with authority. (CWWN, vol. 22, “The Prayer Ministry of the Church,” pp. 196-198)
