晨兴-纲目|outline-听抄-目录

读经:可十一20~24

壹 我们要以神为我们的信来祷告,就需要认识祷告的意义─太六9~10,二一22,约壹五14~15:

I. In order to pray with God as our faith, we need to know the meaning of prayer—Matt. 6:9-10; 21:22; 1 John 5:14-15:

一 祷告乃是神与人的交流,神与人彼此的接触。

A. Prayer is the flowing between man and God and the mutual contact between man and God.

二 祷告真实的意义,乃是我们在灵里和神接触,并吸取神自己─弗六18。

B. The real significance of prayer is to contact God in our spirit and to absorb God Himself—Eph. 6:18.

三 一个祷告的人乃是与神合作,与神同工,让神从他里面,借着他把神自己和神的心意发表出来。

C. A praying person will cooperate with God, work together with God, and allow God to express Himself and His desire from within him and through him.

四 真实的祷告叫我们这个人与神完全调和,也使神与我们调和─林前六17。

D. Real prayers cause our being to be wholly mingled with God and God to be mingled with us—1 Cor. 6:17.

五 我们越祷告,就越被神充满,越在神面前服下来,越被祂得着。

E. The more we pray, the more we will be filled with God and the more we will surrender to God and be gained by Him.

六 祷告就是看见自己一无所是,一无所能─可九28~29。

F. To pray means to realize that we are nothing and that we can do nothing—Mark 9:28-29.

七 我们祷告的管治原则应当是:祷告总是把我们带到神里面;正确祷告的果效,就是我们发现自己在神里面─路十一1~13。

G. The governing principle of our prayer should be that prayer brings us into God; the issue of proper prayer is that we find ourselves in God—Luke 11:1-13.

八 祷告乃是信徒与神合作,与神同工,让神借着他们发表祂自己,而成就祂的定旨─罗八26~27,雅五17。

H. Prayer is believers cooperating and co-working with God, allowing God to express Himself through them, and thus accomplish His purpose—Rom. 8:26-27; James 5:17.

贰 主耶稣在咒诅无花果树(以色列国的象征─耶二四2、5、8)而使其枯干的事上,教导门徒要凭信心祷告─太二一18~22,可十一20~24:

II. In cursing the fig tree, a symbol of the nation of Israel (Jer. 24:2, 5, 8), so that it dried up, the Lord Jesus taught His disciples to pray by faith—Matt. 21:18-22; Mark 11:20-24:

一 主在这里的教导是按照神所要成就的旨意,以完成祂的经纶─启四11,弗一5、9,五17:

A. His teaching here was according to God's will, which is to be accomplished for the fulfillment of His economy—Rev. 4:11; Eph. 1:5, 9; 5:17:

1 没有多少人看见,主关于祷告的教训是与神的经纶有关,而神的经纶是借着祂忠信的子民遵行祂的旨意才得以完成。

1. Not many see that the Lord's teaching on prayer is related to God's economy, which is to be accomplished by His faithful people doing His will.

2 要有这样的祷告,我们这个人必须是对的,遵行神的旨意─就是神要完成祂经纶的伟大旨意─启四11。

2. To pray such a prayer, we must be right persons doing God's will—His great will for the accomplishment of His economy—Rev. 4:11.

3 我们应当是实行神旨意,以完成神经纶的人─就是要为着祂的喜悦产生一个生机体─弗一5、9、22~23。

3. We should be those who are carrying out God's will to accomplish His economy—to produce an organism for His good pleasure—Eph. 1:5, 9, 22-23.

二 主耶稣在神眼中是对的,知道神的心,所以祂对无花果树的咒诅,乃是照着祂对神要完成祂经纶之旨意的认识,祂知道神要放弃腐败的以色列国─太二一19。

B. The Lord Jesus, who is right in the eyes of God, knows God's heart, so His cursing the fig tree was according to His knowledge of God's will in the fulfillment of God's economy to give up the rotten Israel—Matt. 21:19.

三 根据这个背景,主耶稣教导门徒凭着信心祷告,好按照神的经纶,执行祂的旨意─21~22节。

C. Based upon this background, the Lord Jesus taught His disciples to pray for executing God's will according to His economy by faith—vv. 21-22.

四 我们的祷告该成就神的旨意,就是要得着基督的身体,终极完成新耶路撒冷─弗一9、22~23,启二一2。

D. Our prayer should carry out God's will to have the Body of Christ, which will consummate the New Jerusalem—Eph. 1:9, 22-23; Rev. 21:2.

叁 我们需要以神为我们的信来祷告─可十一20~24:

III. We need to pray with God as our faith—Mark 11:20-24:

一 在马可十一章二十至二十四节,主耶稣教导祂的门徒,凭信为着执行神的旨意而祷告。─引用经文

A. In Mark 11:20-24 the Lord Jesus taught His disciples to pray by faith for executing God's will.

二 当祷告者与神调和,并与神成为一时,神就成为他的信;这就是信神(在神里面有信心)的意思─22节。

B. When the praying one is mingled with God and is one with God, God becomes his faith; this is what it means to have faith in God—v. 22.

三 祷告者能在神里面有信心,毫不疑惑,并且信他所求的已经得着了,就必得着。

C. The praying one can have faith in God without doubting, but believing that he has received what he asked for, and he will receive it.

四 主耶稣在二十四节说,“凡你们祷告祈求的,无论是什么,只要信已经得着了,就必得着”:

D. In verse 24 the Lord Jesus said, "All things that you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and you will have them":

1 二十四节中最重要的辞就是“已经得着”;信就是信我们已经得着所求的。─引用经文

1. Received is the crucial word in Mark 11:24; faith is believing that we have received what we have asked for.

2 这节圣经的应许非常包罗,因为这里说到“凡……的”。

2. The promise in this verse is comprehensive because it speaks of "all things."

3 马可十一章二十四节不仅说到信心的必需,也说到信心的性质;信心指向过去,而非指向将来的什么。─引用经文

3. Mark 11:24 speaks not only of the necessity of faith but also of the nature of faith; faith refers to the past, not to anything in the future.

4 按照主的话,我们该相信我们已经得着了,不是我们将要得着─24节。

4. According to the Lord's word, we should believe that we have received, not that we will receive—v. 24.

5 盼望是将来的事,相信乃是看事情已经完成了。

5. To hope means to expect something in the future; to believe means to consider something as having been done.

6 信心不但相信神能、神肯,并且相信神已经作了。

6. Faith is not only believing that God can or will do a certain thing but also believing that God has done that thing already.

五 我们若按着神的旨意祷告,以完成祂的经纶,我们就与神是一,并且也有确信,我们已经得着我们所求的─太六9~10:

E. If we pray according to God's will for the fulfillment of His economy, we are one with God and have the assurance that we have received what we have prayed for—Matt. 6:9-10:

1 如果我们求主,要得着一些满足我们愿望的东西,我们就绝不会在神里面有信心,相信我们已经得着我们所求的;这是因为我们的祷告不是按照神的旨意,以完成神的经纶。

1. If we ask the Lord for things that satisfy our desire, we can never have the faith in God to believe that we have received what we asked for; this is because our prayer is not according to God's will for the fulfillment of God's economy.

2 我们若完全与神是一,我们就有神作我们的信心,并且能按着我们对神旨意的认识祷告,以完成祂的经纶,并且我们信已经得着我们所求的,就必得着─可十一24。

2. If we are absolutely one with God, we can have God as our faith and pray according to the knowledge of God's will for the fulfillment of His economy, and we will believe that we have already received the things that we asked for and will receive them—Mark 11:24.

肆 马可十一章二十至二十四节的祷告是权柄的祷告─23节:

IV. The prayer in Mark 11:20-24 is a prayer with authority—v. 23:

一 最重要、最属灵的祷告,乃是权柄的祷告─太十八18,可十一20~24。

A. The most important prayer and the most spiritual prayer is the prayer of authority—Matt. 18:18; Mark 11:20-24.

二 权柄的祷告乃是用权柄来吩咐─赛四五11,可十一20~24:

B. The prayer of authority is a command based on authority—Isa. 45:11; Mark 11:20-24:

1 权柄的祷告乃是吩咐的祷告─赛四五11。

1. The prayer of authority is a commanding prayer—Isa. 45:11.

2 我们若真要祷告在神面前有分量、有价值,就必须能在神面前发出权柄的命令来─可十一23。

2. If we wish to have weighty and valuable prayers before God, we need to be able to give out some authoritative commands before God—Mark 11:23.

三 权柄的祷告就是马可十一章二十至二十四节里的祷告:─引用经文

C. Praying with authority is praying the prayer of Mark 11:20-24:

1 权柄的祷告,不是求神作什么,乃是用神的权柄,把神的权柄拿来对付难处,对付那该除去的事─23节,亚四7,太二一21。

1. A prayer with authority does not ask God to do something; rather, it exercises God's authority and applies this authority to deal with problems and things that ought to be removed—v. 23; Zech. 4:7; Matt. 21:21.

2 权柄的祷告不是直接向神求,乃是直接用神的权柄来对付难处─出十四15~27。

2. A prayer with authority is not asking God directly; rather, it is dealing with problems by directly applying God's authority—Exo. 14:15-27.

四 权柄的祷告是与作得胜者极有关系的;每一个得胜者都必须学习对“这座山”说─可十一23:

D. Prayer with authority has much to do with the overcomers; every overcomer must learn to speak to "this mountain"—Mark 11:23:

1 神派定我们命令祂所已经命令的事,吩咐祂所已经吩咐的事─太十七20。

1. God has commissioned us to command what He has commanded and give orders to what He has given orders to—Matt. 17:20.

2 这种祷告不是对神说,乃是对“这座山”说。

2. This kind of prayer is directed not toward God but toward "this mountain."

3 得胜者最要紧的工作,就是把宝座上的权柄带到地上来;我们若要作得胜者,就必须学会权柄的祷告,对山说话─启十一15,十二10。

3. The most important work of the overcomers is to bring the authority of the throne to earth; if we want to be an overcomer, we must learn to pray with authority and speak to the mountain—Rev. 11:15; 12:10.
