18当我们在基督的身体里,我们实际上不是在进行属灵的争战,乃是在享受属灵的争战。我们不是在奋斗苦战,反而争战成了一种享受。因着我们在灵里祷告,应用基督作军装的每一面,所以属灵的争战成了一种享受。……诗篇二十三篇五节说,“在我敌人面前,你为我摆设筵席。”这指明战场是摆设筵席的地方。我们在仇敌面前享受筵席,享受基督作实际、义、和平、信、救恩以及神活的话。借着在灵里祷告,我们享受祂并应用祂(以弗所书生命读经,九八一至九八二、九八六页)。
18When we are in the Body, we actually do not carry on the spiritual warfare; we simply enjoy it. Instead of struggling in the battle, the battle becomes an enjoyment. Because we pray in spirit to apply all the aspects of Christ as the armor, spiritual fighting becomes an enjoyment…Psalm 23:5 says, “You spread a table before me / In the presence of my adversaries.” This indicates that the battlefield is a place of feasting. We feast in the presence of the enemy, enjoying Christ as reality, righteousness, peace, faith, salvation, and the living word of God. We enjoy Him and apply Him by praying in spirit. (Life-study of Ephesians, pp. 793-794, 796)
