13在主的名里祷告,就是指着你这个祷告的人是与主联合的,你祷告就是主祷告。你在主的名里祷告,就是主和你一同祷告。……弟兄姊妹,有相当多的时候,我们虽然是在那里祷告,但是不能说,我们是在主的名里祷告。因为你知道那不过是你那样祷告,主并不那样祷告。……所以末了结束的时候,你应该说,“神啊,我是在自己的名里祷告,因为根本是我自己在神面前祷告,不是主在我里面祷告。”真实在主的名里祷告,必须是你在主里面祷告,当你这样祷告的时候,主也在你里面祷告。
13To pray in the name of the Lord means that you, the praying one, are in union with the Lord. When you pray in the name of the Lord, the Lord prays together with you. Brothers and sisters, when we have prayed, many times we were unable to say that we prayed in the name of the Lord, for we know that it was just our prayer; the Lord would not have prayed that way. So, at the end we should have said, “O God, we are praying in our own name,” for in practice, it is we ourselves, not the Lord praying in us. In order to be in the reality of praying in the Lord’s name, we need to be praying in the Lord. And when we pray thus, the Lord also prays in us.
