296 中翻英(36) Lord, Have a Mercy on me。 主阿, 憐憫我, 求寬恕我犯的罪。 2/13/2023
我們大有恩典憐憫的上帝, 求祢的靈充滿我, 使孩子知道自己是多麼污濊, 不知道感恩, 却佔別人的便宜。 我要悔改, 不要再做這樣使祢蒙羞的卑鄙下賤的事。求主再一次憐憫饒恕, 賜孩子機會向祢認罪。奉主耶穌基督的聖名禱告。阿們。
今天送上的二月十三日的曠野筵席懇請品嚐。
"我實實在在地告訴你們， 你們在地上捆綁的，在天上也要捆綁；你們在地上釋放的，在天上也要釋放”（馬太福音 18:18）。
「我實在告訴你們，凡你們在地上所捆綁的，在天上也要捆綁，凡你們在地上所釋放的，在天上也要釋放。」（馬太福音
18:18 新國際版 ）
上文那「凡」字太寶貴了。圣經在這里指出：天上執行的尺度是依隨地上的求索而實現，但因天上的能力和供應總是遠超地上的祈求，所以不論捆綁或釋放都必超過我們在地上所求的。為什么我們的禱告往往僅顧到祈求脫罪，或只苦求自己能得著從上頭來的能力呢？是的，「愿你的旨意行在我身上」這樣的禱告，的确已屬一個很好的開端；但不能停在這里，必須住前進到「愿你的旨意行在全地上」。今天神儿女的禱告太過注意微小瑣碎的事，而不知道他們的禱告乃是為著要帶下并釋放，天上許多權能巨大的偉業。為個人需要的祈禱，必須推進到為國度的禱告。從這一角度來看，教會就自然是天上施工的對象，是天上能力流過的管子，也是成全神偉大計划的憑借。天上現今有許多工作堆積如山，都是因為神在地上還沒有找到祂的出口、教會尚沒有釋放該有的禱告。
The
word "凡(都是)
‘everything’ " above is very precious. The Bible points out here: the measure
of execution in heaven is actually according to the request on earth, but
because the power and supply of heaven is always far exceeding the request on
earth, so whether it is bound or loosed, it will exceed what we ask on earth.
Why do our prayers often only focus on asking for forgiveness of sins, or asking ourselves to receive power from above? Yes, prayers such as "Your will be done" are indeed a very good start; but we cannot stop there, we must move on to "May your will be done on the whole earth". The prayers of God's children today are so focused on the small and trivial things that they do not realize that their prayers are meant to bring down and release the great and mighty giants of heaven. Prayers for personal needs must advance to prayers for the kingdom. From this perspective, the church is naturally the object of construction in heaven, the channel through which the power of heaven flows, and the basis for the fulfillment of God’s great plan. There are many jobs piled up in heaven today, all because God has not yet found His outlet on earth, and the church has not yet released the prayers it should have.
