第二周 周一
纲目
2壹 我们要学习主的榜样,独自上山去祷告而过隐藏的生活——太十四23,参路六12
2
3一 主没有与群众在一起留在所行神迹的结果里(指除了妇女孩子,食饱五千人的神迹),乃是离开群众,在山上独自在祷告中与父在一起——太十四14~23
3
41 主催门徒离开,祂好有更多的时间独自祷告父——22~23节。
4
52 祂需要独自祷告祂在诸天之上的父,好叫祂在地上为着建立诸天之国,无论作什么,都能与父是一,并有父与祂同在;祂不是在野地,乃是在山上祷告;祂离开群众,甚至离开门徒,为要独自与父接触。
5
6二 我们应当宝贝这三句话:“与父在一起”、“在山上”、“在祷告中”:
6
71 与别人一起祷告是很好的,但通常我们需要独自祷告;我们与别人一起祷告时,无法像我们独自向主祷告时享受主那样深。
7
82 甚至主耶稣也告诉我们,我们祷告时,要私下关上门,向那在隐密中察看我们的父祷告(六6);这样,我们就会感觉到祂与我们是何等亲,我们与祂是何等近。
8
93 我们必须学习离开群众、家庭、朋友和召会里的圣徒,去到更高一层的“高山”;我们需要达到更高一层,离开群众和属地的事物,独自与父在一起,隐密地与祂有亲密的交通。

10太十四23 既解散了群众,祂就独自上山去祷告。到了晚上,只有祂单独在那里。
10Matt. 14:23 And after He sent the crowds away, He went up to the mountain privately to pray. And when night fell, He was there alone.
11路六12 那些日子,耶稣出去上山祷告,整夜祷告神。
11Luke 6:12 And in these days He went out to the mountain to pray, and He spent the whole night in prayer to God.
12在行了〔食饱五千人的〕神迹后,主就独自上山去祷告。
12After performing the miracle [of feeding five thousand], the Lord went up to the mountain privately to pray.
13主没有与群众在一起留在所行神迹的结果里,乃是离开他们,在山上独自在祷告中与父在一起。我们若到一个地方去,有了极大的成功,我们会立即离开,还是会留下来享受这个大的成功?我们必须看见并跟从主耶稣的榜样。祂没有留在所行大神迹的结果里。祂独自上山去祷告。“独自”这辞很有意义。这意思是说,祂不让人知道祂去祷告;否则,他们会跟着祂。祂离开他们,独自在祷告中与父在一起。我喜欢这三句话:“在山上”、“在祷告中”、“与父在一起”。我们应当从主在这里的榜样学,操练在山上在祷告中与祂在一起。祂望着天,意思是祂不信靠自己。祂上山去,意思是祂要在祷告中与父在一起(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第三册,七○九至七一○页)。
13The Lord did not remain in the issue of the miracle with the crowds but went away from them to be with the Father privately on the mountain in prayer. If we go to a certain place and have a great success, would we leave right away, or would we remain in this big success to enjoy it? We need to see and follow the pattern of the Lord Jesus. He did not remain in the issue of the great miracle that He performed. Instead, He went up to the mountain privately to pray. The word privately is very meaningful. This means He did not let the people know that He was going to pray. Otherwise, they would have followed Him. He went away from them to be with the Father privately in prayer. I like these three phrases: to be with the Father, on the mountain, and in prayer. We should learn from the Lord’s pattern here by exercising to be with Him on the mountain in prayer. His looking up to heaven means that He had no trust in Himself. His going up to the mountain means that He wanted to be with the Father in prayer.

14与别人一起祷告是很好的,但通常我们需要独自祷告。我们与别人一起祷告时,无法像我们独自向主祷告时享受主那样深。甚至主耶稣也告诉我们,我们祷告时,要私下关上门,隐密地向那在隐密中察看我们的父祷告(太六6)。这样,我们就会感觉到祂与我们是何等亲,我们与祂是何等近。我们必须学习离开群众、家庭、朋友和召会里的圣徒,去到更高一层的“高山”。我们必须上得更高,远离较低一层属地的事物,独自与父在一起,隐密地与祂有亲密的交通。这就是“上山祷告”的意义。
14To pray with others is good, but often we need to pray by ourselves. When we pray with others, we cannot enjoy the Lord as deeply as when we pray to the Lord privately. Even the Lord Jesus told us that when we pray we should enter into our private room and shut our door and pray to the Father who sees in secret (Matt. 6:6). Then we have the sensation of how intimate He is to us and how close we are to Him. We have to learn to leave the crowds, our family, our friends, and the saints in the church to go to a higher level on a “high mountain.” We have to go higher, far away from the earthly things on a lower level. We need to get to a higher level, separated from the crowd, to be with the Father privately and secretly to have intimate fellowship with Him. This is the significance of being on the mountain in prayer.
15我们需要来看,主耶稣为什么在这神迹之后,立即到山上去〔十四23〕。约翰六章二十七节告诉我们这个理由。这一节说,主在行了神迹之后说,“不要为那必坏的食物劳力,要为那存到永远生命的食物劳力,就是人子要赐给你们的,因为祂是父神所印证的。”主告诉那些得着祂喂养的人,不要寻求那必坏的食物,乃要寻求那存到永远生命的食物。我信主耶稣到山上,是这样祷告:“父啊,在你的祝福下,我向你祷告。你借着祝福喂养了五千人;但是父啊,他们只是寻求那必坏的食物。我仰望你祝福他们,使他们寻求那存到永远生命的食物。父啊,你知道我是你所差遣的那一位;只有我能给他们那存到永远生命的食物,但他们不是这样认识我。他们只知道我能行神迹,用物质的食物喂养他们。但他们却不知道,唯有我能给他们永远生命的食物。”
15We need to consider why the Lord Jesus went to the mountain right after this miracle [14:23]. John 6:27 gives us the reason. [It] says that after performing the miracle, the Lord said, “Work not for the food which perishes, but for the food which abides unto eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you; for Him has the Father, even God, sealed.” The Lord told the ones whom He fed not to seek the food that perishes but to seek the food that abides unto eternal life. I believe the Lord Jesus went to the mountain to pray in this way: “Father, I pray to You under Your blessing. Through Your blessing, You fed the five thousand, but Father, they are just seeking for the food that perishes. I do look unto You that You would bless them that they would seek the food that abides unto eternal life. Father, You know that I am Your sent One. Only I can give them the food that abides unto eternal life, but they do not know Me in this way. They know only that I can perform a miracle to feed them with physical food. But they do not know that it is only I who can give them food that is of the eternal life.”
16在约翰六章,主启示祂是从天上来的粮,也就是生命的粮。至终,祂告诉我们,这粮就是祂的话。“我对你们所说的话,就是灵,就是生命。”(63)三章三十四节说,祂是那说神的话并无限赐给那灵的一位。要这样认识祂,需要有启示,因此祂独自到山上为他们祷告(李常受文集一九九四至一九九七年第三册,七一○至七一二页)。
16In John 6 the Lord revealed that He is the bread out of heaven, the bread of life. Eventually, He said that this bread is just His word. “The words which I have spoken to you are spirit and are life” (v. 63). John 3:34 says that He is the One who speaks the word and gives the Spirit not by measure. To know Him in this way requires a revelation, so He prayed for them privately on the mountain.

今日要点
18主题:学习主的榜样,过隐藏的生活
18
19引经:太十四23路六12
19
201.主的榜样:
20
21a.要活在神国的实际里,我们需要学习主的榜样,独自上山去祷告而过隐藏的生活,在太十四章,五饼二鱼食饱五千的事例之后,主没有与群众在一起留在所行神迹的结果里,乃是离开群众,在山上独自在祷告中与父在一起,太十四23说,『既解散了群众,祂就独自上山去祷告。到了晚上,只有祂独自在那里』,这里『独自』一词很有意义,意思是,主甚至不让人知道祂去祷告,甚至不让门徒跟着祂去祷告。
21
22b.我们需要进一步探讨主这么作的原因,主行了神迹之后,祂要那些得主餧养的人,不要为那必坏的食物劳力,要寻求那存到永远生命的食物,并且这食物就是主对他们所说的话,就是灵,就是生命,事实上,要这样认识主,需要启示,为此,主催促门徒离开,乃是使祂有更多的时间上山为他们祷告。
22
232.以主为榜样,过隐藏的生活:
23
24a.主独自祷告父,好实行诸天之上父的旨意,叫祂在地上为着建立诸天的国,无论作什么,都与父是一,并有父与祂同在,我们应当宝贝这三句话:『与父在一起』、『在山上』、『在祷告中』,与别人一起祷告是很好的,但不仅要与人祷告,更需要独自祷告,我们与人一同祷告,无法像我们独自向主祷告时享受主这样深。
24
25b.我们必须以主为榜样,向主学,路六12说,『那些日子,耶稣出去上山祷告,整夜祷告神』,不是说我们要关闭自己,但的确有时该离开群众、家庭、朋友、和召会里的圣徒,去到更高一层的山上,远离较低一层属地的事物,关上门,向那在隐密中查看我们的父祷告,并且脱离群众,上到高山,与父在一起,在祷告中隐密的与父在一起。
25
26应用:每天操练使用闹钟,提醒我们该停下来,好能划出固定时间,远离一切人事物,用功朝见主面,使我们能够不仅更深的享受主,也与主建立更深的关系,在其中听见祂的指教和指引,使我们受引导过国度的生活。
