7启四11 ……你创造了万有，并且万有是因你的旨意存在并被创造的。
7Rev. 4:11 …You have created all things, and because of Your will they were, and were created.
8罗十二2 ……借着心思的更新而变化，叫你们验证何为神那美好、可喜悦、并纯全的旨意。
8Rom. 12:2 …Be transformed by the renewing of the mind that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and well pleasing and perfect.
95 我们这许多人，在基督里是一个身体，并且各个互相作肢体，也是如此。
95 So we who are many are one Body in Christ, and individually members one of another.
10神创造之工的基础，乃是神的意愿和计划（弗一10~11）。启示录四章十一节说，万有是因神的旨意被创造的。神是一位有定旨的神，有一个出自祂自己喜悦的意愿。祂为自己的旨意（意愿）创造了万有，好成就并完成祂的定旨。……照着那个意愿和计划，〔神〕创造了万有，好使祂能得着召会（新约总论第七册，一四页）。
10The basis of God’s work in creation was God’s will and plan (Eph. 1:10-11). Revelation 4:11 says that all things were created according to God’s will. God is a God of purpose, having a will of His own pleasure. He created all things for His will that He might accomplish and fulfill His purpose…According to [His] will and plan, He created all things so that He may have the church. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, p. 2056)
11神的旨意……这种子由主耶稣在马太七章二十一节撒下，在罗马十二章二节发展。……按照十二章的上下文，神的旨意很清楚，乃是有身体生活，召会，或者我们可以说是国度。国度乃是神的旨意，而召会就是国度（李常受文集一九七二年第二册，五○五页）。
11The will of God [as a] seed is sown by the Lord Jesus in Matthew 7:21 and is developed in Romans 12:2 …According to the context of Romans 12, it is clear that the will of God is to have the Body life, the church, or we may say the kingdom. The kingdom is the will of God, and the church is the kingdom. (CWWL, 1972, vol. 2, “The Kingdom,” pp. 392-393)

12我们若活在诸天之国的实际里，就要实行天上父的旨意。我们在这里不是为着别的，乃是为着实行父的旨意。要实行父的旨意，我们需要走狭路，就是那引到生命的路。我们的父有一个旨意要成就，但我们唯有借着祂的生命才能成就这旨意。所以，我们需要活在天父的生命里，凭着祂的生命而活。这样的生活乃是为着实行父的旨意。
12If we live in the reality of the kingdom of the heavens, we shall do the will of the Father who is in heaven. We are not for anything other than doing the will of the Father. We are here for the accomplishment of the Father’s will. In order to do the will of the Father, we need to walk in the constricted way, the way that leads to life. Our Father has a will to accomplish, but we can accomplish it only by His life. Therefore, we need to live in the life of the heavenly Father and by His life. This kind of living is for doing the Father’s will.
13在马太十六章我们看见，父的旨意是要将召会建造在子这磐石上。这在使徒行传、书信和启示录里得着完全的发展。新约启示出父那神圣、永远的旨意，乃是要建造召会。那些活在诸天之国实际里的信徒，团体地经历神圣三一的分赐，要走那引到生命的路，并要接受基督的话作他们生活工作的根基，以实行父的旨意，建造召会作三一神团体的彰显（新约总论第六册，一八一页）。
13In chapter 16 of Matthew we see that the Father’s will is to build the church upon the Son as the rock. This is fully developed in the Acts, the Epistles, and the book of Revelation. The New Testament reveals that the Father’s divine, eternal will is to build up the church. Those believers who live in the reality of the kingdom of the heavens, corporately experiencing the dispensing of the Divine Trinity, will take the way which leads to life and will take the words of Christ as the ground for their living and work to do the will of the Father to build up the church for the corporate expression of the Triune God. (The Conclusion of the New Testament, pp. 1725-1726)
14若是〔我们〕里头有主的宝座，主是在宝座上作王，从这羔羊的宝座就会有生命水流出来。……从宝座流出生命水的河（启二二1）。我们要看见，宝座一设立在我们里面，生命就涌流，变作我们里面的供应，变作我们里面的能力；我们就满足、刚强、明亮并且丰富了。祂在我们里面掌权，祂的旨意就得着通行，祂的荣耀也就得着彰显。到这时，祂不只是在天上得高举，更是在你我里面得高举。祂不只在宝座上得着国度，更在你我里面得着国度。你我就是祂的国度，你我里面有祂的掌权。我们就在祂的生命里，活在祂的国度里。
14If the Lord’s throne is in us and the Lord is reigning on the throne, then from the throne of God and of the Lamb the water of life will flow…Out of the throne proceeds a river of water of life (Rev. 22:1). We need to see that once the throne is set up in us, life will flow, and this flow will become our inward supply, our inward strength. We will then be satisfied, strengthened, enlightened, and enriched. When Christ reigns in us, His will, will be done, and His glory will be expressed. As a result, He will be exalted not only in heaven but also in us. He will obtain His kingdom not only on the throne in heaven but also in us. We will be His kingdom, and we will have His rule in us. We will be in His life and will live in His kingdom.
15若是如此，我们就在祂的荣耀里，这个光景会带进祂的国度，带进祂的掌权，会把祂从天上带下来。祂要从天上带着荣耀，带着权柄，带着国度回到地上，明显地设立祂的国度。祂要以你我为根基，以你我这些让祂掌权的人为根基，使祂能在地上建立祂的国。当祂在地上设立祂的国度之先，祂乃是先在你我里面设立祂的国度。
15When this is our experience, we will be in His glory, and this will bring in His kingdom, His reigning, and will bring Him down from heaven. He will come back to the earth with His glory, authority, and kingdom to openly establish His kingdom. He will take us, those who allow Him to reign, as the base for Him to establish His kingdom. Before He establishes His kingdom on the earth, He must first establish His kingdom in us.
16这位主今天在圣灵中进到我们里面，设立祂的宝座，作我们的君王，我们必须服在祂的权柄之下，承认祂是我们的君王，接受祂的管治。若是我们都活在这样的光景中，从我们里面的这个宝座，就要流出生命的活水，供应人的需要（李常受文集一九五七年第二册，六一二至六一三页）。
16Today the Lord as the Spirit has entered into us to establish His throne in us and become our King, and we must submit to His authority, acknowledge Him as our King, and receive His ruling. If we live in such a condition, from the throne within us will flow the living water, the water of life, which will supply the need of others. (CWWL, 1957, vol. 2, “What the Kingdom Is to the Believers,” p. 438)

今日要点
18主题：活在宝座掌权之下，过身体生活，使身体得着建造
18
19引经：启四11，罗十二2，罗十二5
19
201.认识神的旨意与神的国有关：
20
21A. 神爱子的国乃是神旨意的一个重要方面，我们这些国度的子民，若活在神爱子的国里，就要在地上实行父的旨意，神是一位有定旨的神，有祂自己喜悦的旨意，启四11说，『…你创造了万有，并且万有是因你的旨意存在并被创造的』，祂为自己的旨意创造了万有，好成就并完成祂的定旨。
21
22B.在马太十六章，我们看见父的旨意乃是要将召会建造在子这磐石上，那些活在诸天之国实际里的信徒，团体的经历神圣三一的分赐，要走那引到生命的路，并要接受基督的话做他们生活工作的根基，以实行父的旨意，建造召会作三一神团体的彰显，所以我们若活在神国的实际里，就要实行天上父的旨意，使我们走狭路，引到生命，并建造召会。
22
232.神的旨意乃是要建造召会作基督的身体：
23
24A.事实上，神的旨意这种子是由主耶稣在马太七章撒下，并在罗马十二章发展，在2节说，『…借着心思的更新而变化，叫你们验证何为神那美好、可喜悦、并纯全的旨意』，5节说，『我们这许多人，在基督里是一个身体，并且各个互相作之体，也是如此』，按着上下文，神的旨意很清楚，乃是有身体生活，召会，或者说是国度，国度乃是神的旨意，而召会就是国度。
24
25B.要有国度的实际，我们里面要有主的宝座，主是在宝座上作王，从这羔羊的宝座就会有生命水流出来，从宝座流出生命水的河，当我们下宝座，让主登宝座，宝座一被设立，生命就会永留，变作我们里面生命的供应和能力，祂在我们里面掌权，祂的旨意就得通行，祂的荣耀就得彰显。
25
26应用：每天早晨，我们都该亲近主，向主说，主啊，我爱你，我愿意向宝座投下所有冠冕，使我们一早就经历生命活水的运河，从宝座流出来，不仅滋润我们，解除我们的干渴，更能流向我们所接触，职场的同事、家人、邻居，使人也能得着滋润和满足。
