纲目
1陆 我们要据有包罗万有的基督作美地的实际,并在祂里面行事为人,就需要在我们的生活和事奉上有多而彻底的祷告,借此在祭司职分的实际里生活并事奉—彼前二59西四2 :
1
2一 召会是不是活的、新鲜的、丰富的,就在于这件事:我们要一直被那灵充满;我们要一直被那灵充满,就需要是乐意、倒空并祷告的人—2节,腓二13太五38路一53弗五18
2
3二 建造召会的尊贵工作所需的智慧、悟性、知识和技巧,必须是对我们成了那灵的神自己;惟有神的灵才能借着我们建造祂自己的居所—出三一1~3亚四6
3
4三 如果各召会里的众圣徒都坚定持续的祷告,主的恢复就会大大的得着丰富并拔高;不仅如此,众圣徒也会享受主,享受主的同在和祂即时并常时的膏油涂抹;他们会终日享受主的笑脸,并且基督活的人位会成为他们的经历和享受。

5出三一3 我〔耶和华〕也已经以神的灵充满他〔比撒列〕,使他有智慧,有悟性,有知识,能作各样的工。
5Exo. 31:3 And I [Jehovah] have filled him [Bezalel] with the Spirit of God, with wisdom and with understanding and with knowledge and with all kinds of workmanship.
6西四2 你们要坚定持续地祷告,在此儆醒感恩。
6Col. 4:2 Persevere in prayer, watching in it with thanksgiving.
7出埃及记的记载……非常强调神的灵的充满。……帐幕……是神亲自设计的,但……帐幕不是神直接建造的。帐幕乃是神的子民建造的;他们被祂所充满,就是被祂的灵所充满。
7The record in Exodus stresses strongly the infilling of the Spirit of God… The tabernacle was designed by God Himself. Yet…the tabernacle was not built by Him directly. It was built by His people who were filled with Him, that is, with His Spirit.
8神的灵就是神自己。……神的灵……就是神临及我们。当祂临及我们,这位临及的神就是那灵(李常受文集一九八三年第一册,九八至九九页)。
8The Spirit of God is God Himself…The Spirit of God…is God reaching us. When He reaches us, the very reaching God is the Spirit. (CWWL, 1983, vol. 1, “Practical Talks to the Elders,” pp. 71-72)

9神无法独自建造祂的居所,祂只能借着乐意且倒空的器皿来建造。召会是不是活的、新鲜的、丰富的,就在于这件事:我们要一直被三一神充满。亲爱的弟兄,为此我们首先需要乐意,其次需要倒空。……我们所需要的第三件事是随时、不住的祷告。我们必须祷告。……我们需要倒空自己,因为知道我们所能作的都不算数;这不仅是神所弃绝的,甚至也是神所定罪的。……我们必须认识这一点。然后我们就会看见我们需要神,并且会随时、不住地祷告。
9God cannot build His dwelling place by Himself; He can do it only through willing and empty vessels. Whether the church is living and fresh and enriched depends on this one thing: that we are being filled continuously with the Triune God. For this, dear brothers, we need first the willingness and second the emptiness. The third thing that we need is the instant, constant prayer. We must pray…We need to empty ourselves, knowing that whatever we can do is not counted; it is not only rejected but even condemned by God…We have to realize this. Then we will see our need of God and will pray constantly and instantly.
10长老在召会中不是特殊阶级;他们没有特殊的地位。……长老只是正常的信徒;他们不过是建立榜样给其余的信徒跟随。……因此,圣经既告诉我们,众信徒应该不住地祷告(帖前五17),长老就该作榜样。凡是新约吩咐信徒所要作的,长老都该作。……既然是你领头,凡神所吩咐的,你就都该实行;信徒未必都能这么作,你却应当这么作。
10Elders in the church are not a special class; they do not have a special rank…Elders are just normal believers; they simply set a pattern for the rest of the believers to follow. Thus, when the Bible tells us that all believers should pray unceasingly (1 Thes. 5:17), the elders should set an example. All that the New Testament charges the believers to do, the elders should do… Since you are taking the lead, you should carry out all that is commanded by God; all believers may not be able to do this, but you should.
11倘若你不乐意、不倒空、不祷告,我就无法帮助你;你也无法对别人有帮助。……〔我们应当祷告:〕“主,靠着你的怜悯,我是乐意的。因着你的恩典,我是倒空的。我完全倒空地向你敞开。我不愿持守已往的经历,我要新鲜。”你随时、不住地祷告,被祂充满,你就会经历智慧、悟性、知识像潮水一般临到你。神圣的智慧、神圣的悟性和神圣的知识会涌流到你身上。你会知道如何以神圣的性情接触圣徒,如何以基督供应他们,如何以基督的救赎和神的审判建造他们。你也会有一种内里的能力,在变化里并在召会生活里建造圣徒;不是仅仅在性格上建造他们,乃是把他们建造成为神的居所。
11If you are short of willingness, short of emptiness, short of prayer, I cannot help you. Nor can you be of help to others…We should pray, “Lord, by Your mercy I am willing. In Your grace I am empty. I am open to You with utter emptiness. I do not want to hold on to anything of my past experiences. I want to be fresh.” All the time, unceasingly, pray to be filled with Him. Then you will experience wisdom, understanding, and knowledge coming to you like a tide. You will be under the flooding of divine wisdom, divine understanding, and divine knowledge. You will know how to contact the saints with the divine nature, how to supply them with Christ, how to build them up with the redemption of Christ and with God’s judgment. You will also have an inner ability to build up the saints in transformation and in the church life; not just to build them in character but to build them up as a dwelling place for God.
12无论在什么地方,长老们极缺乏的就是不住地祷告。你们缺少祷告,所以你们缺少那灵。乃是当你们在祷告中完全被定罪时,你们对于环境、对于人、对于召会,才能得着主的智慧和真正的领会。……基督徒的生活乃是祷告的生活(李常受文集一九八三年第一册,一○二至一○四、一○七页)。
12The crucial lack is this continuous prayer on the part of all the elders, whatever the locality. You are short of prayer, so you are short of the Spirit. It is when you are fully condemned in your prayer that you receive wisdom and the real understanding of the Lord concerning the situation, concerning people, and concerning the church. The Christian life is a life of prayer. (CWWL, 1983, vol. 1, “Practical Talks to the Elders,” pp. 74-75, 77)
13论到坚定持续的祷告,我盼望……说……,我们要乐意和主办交涉,甚至向祂许愿说,我们要作祷告的人。如果各召会里的众圣徒都和主办这样的交涉,主的恢复就会大大地得着丰富并拔高。不仅如此,众圣徒也会享受主,享受主的同在和祂即时并常时的膏油涂抹。他们会终日享受主的笑脸。我们坚定持续地祷告时,基督活的人位就成了我们的经历和享受(歌罗西书生命读经,七二六页)。
13Concerning persevering in prayer, I wish to say…that we need to be willing to make a deal with the Lord, even to make a vow to Him, that we will be a praying people. If all the saints in all the churches make such a deal with the Lord, the recovery will be greatly enriched and uplifted. Furthermore, the saints will enjoy the Lord, His presence, and His instant and constant anointing. All day long, they will enjoy the smile of the Lord’s face. As we persevere in prayer, the living person of Christ becomes our experience and enjoyment. (Life-study of Colossians, second edition, pp. 573-574)

今日要点
15主题:看见并经历在祭司职分里生活并工作这个管制原则,以据有基督作美地
15
16引经:出三一3西四2
16
171.借着在祭司职分里生活并工作,而据有基督作美地
17
18a.我们要据有包罗万有的基督作美地的实际,并在祂里面行事为人,就需要看见,在旧约,百姓需要周五所说,主的同在(云柱、火柱)作为引导,也需要有祭司体系(乌陵、土明)作为决断,祭司不仅双手被祭物所表征的基督充满,也借着祭司职分使百姓在消极的问题中有神的决断。
18
19b.我们要在我们的生活和事奉上有多而彻底的祷告,借此在祭司职分的实际里生活并事奉,在旧约,借着大祭司的乌陵和土明,就可以在百姓的失序中作决断。
19
202.祭司需要被神所充满:
20
21a.在今天的召会中,我们需要一直被那灵所充满,乐意、倒空并祷告,使召会是活的、新鲜的、丰富的,出埃及记的记载非常强调神的灵的充满,帐幕是神亲自设计的,但帐幕不是神直接建造的,帐幕乃是神的子民建造的,神无法独自建造祂的居所,祂只能借着乐意并且倒空的器皿建造,他们被祂所充满,就是被祂的灵所充满。
21
22b.因为建造召会的尊贵工作所需要的智慧、悟性、知识和技巧,必须是对我们成了那灵的神自己,在出三一3,神以祂的灵充满比撒列,所以,若召会中的众圣徒都操练西四2,坚定持续的祷告,主的恢复就会大大的得着丰富并拔高,众圣徒也会享受主,享受主的同在和祂即时并常时的膏油涂抹,因而终日享受主的笑脸,并且基督活的人位会成为他们的经历和享受。
22
23应用:我们应当祷告:“主,靠着你的怜悯,我是乐意的,因着你的恩典,我是倒空的,我完全倒空的向你敞开,我不愿持守以往的经历,我要新鲜。”这样,我们就会被祂充满,经历智慧、悟性、知识像潮水一样临到,使我们知道当如何接触圣徒,如何与圣徒同被建造。
