14我请求你们众人下定决心,靠主的恩典天天为三件事祷告。首先,为你自己祷告:“主,天天提醒我,要在你里面行事为人,经历你,并在日常生活中凡事应用你。”……我们需要在日常生活中,以这样的方式经历基督并应用祂。……第二,我们需要为众圣徒祷告,不单为着同我们在一起的人,还要为远处的圣徒祷告。要记念他们,为他们祷告,也为全召会祷告。第三,祷告求主恢复在祂的众儿女当中,……对祂旨意的认识与经历。要为你们自己、为众召会并为着恢复祂的旨意祷告;祂的旨意乃是关于包罗万有的基督和祂真正的彰显。这乃照着主的心意。……神永远的旨意乃是要使基督作我们的一切。这样我们就会认识神的旨意,知道我们所追求的是什么,并且知道如何为全召会祷告。不仅如此,我们也就会知道,神要在这时代恢复对祂永远定旨、计划和旨意的认识与经历。我们仰望主天天加给我们负担,为我们自己、为众圣徒并为着在这末后的日子恢复这件事而祷告(李常受文集一九六一至一九六二年第四册,一六八至一六九、六五三至六五四页)。
14I would ask you all to make a decision that by the grace of the Lord, you would pray every day for three things. First, pray for yourself: “Lord, day by day remind me to walk in You, experience You, and apply You to everything in my daily life.”…We need to experience Christ and apply Him in such a way in our daily life…Second, we need to pray for the saints, not only for those who are with us but also for those who are far away. Remember them and pray for them and for the whole church. Third, pray that the Lord would recover the knowledge and experience of His will among all His children…Pray for yourself, for the churches, and for the recovery of His will concerning the allinclusive Christ and His genuine expression. This is according to the Lord’s mind…The eternal will of God is that we would have Christ as everything to us. Then we will know God’s will, know what we are pursuing, and know how to pray for the whole church. Moreover, we will know that God will recover the knowledge and experience of His eternal purpose, plan, and will in this age. We look to the Lord to burden us every day to pray for ourselves, for the saints, and for the recovery of this matter in these last days. (CWWL, 19611962, vol. 4, pp. 489-490)
