117 環境是不知不覺中的聖地

萬事都互相效力,叫愛神的人得益處。(羅八28

信徒的際遇是神所命定的,信徒生命中沒有偶然那一回事。神在他的旨意中,預備一些你不明白的環境,但神的靈卻明白。他把你帶到某些地方,叫你遇到某些人,遭遇某些事,為使聖靈的代求透過你,行在某一道路上。切勿在環境中說:“我要自己作主;我要當心這個,小心那個。”一切環境都在神手中,所以不必為所處的環境滿腹狐疑。你代求的責任,不是要千辛萬苦,乃是用神給你日常的生活際遇,把神安排給你碰到的人帶到他座前,讓你裡面的聖靈有機會為他們代求。這樣,神就能透過聖徒得著整個世界。

我是否無目的,叫聖靈難以工作?我是否要代替聖靈來工作?在代求的事上,我要盡上人的本分,這是指我所處的環境,和我接觸的人。我得把這有知覺的生命作聖靈的聖地,把不同的人帶到神面前,讓聖靈為他們代求。你的代求不能代替我的,我的代求也不能代替你的,只有聖靈在我們個別生命中代求。沒有這代求,人的生命就必受到虧損。

祈禱◆主啊,我投向你,因著你大能的救贖,我以那偉大的勝利禱文來作祈禱:“我們若照他的旨意求什麼,他就聽我們,這是我們向他所存坦然無懼的心。”


November 7 The Undetected Sacredness Of Circumstances

All things work together for good to them that love God.” Romans 8:28

The circumstances of a saint's life are ordained of God. In the life of a saint there is no such thing as chance. God by His providence brings you into circumstances that you cannot understand at all, but the Spirit of God understands. God is bringing you into places and among people and into conditions in order that the intercession of the Spirit in you may take a particular line. Never put your hand in front of the circumstances and say – I am going to be my own providence here, I must watch this, and guard that. All your circumstances are in the hand of God, therefore never think it strange concerning the circumstances you are in. Your part in intercessory prayer is not to enter into the agony of intercession, but to utilize the common-sense circumstances God puts you in, and the common-sense people He puts you amongst by His providence, to bring them before God's throne and give the Spirit in you a chance to intercede for them. In this way God is going to sweep the whole world with His saints.

Am I making the Holy Spirit's work difficult by being indefinite, or by trying to do His work for Him? I must do the human side of intercession, and the human side is the circumstances I am in and the people I am in contact with. I have to keep my conscious life as a shrine of the Holy Ghost, then as I bring the different ones before God, the Holy Spirit makes intercession for them.

Your intercessions can never be mine, and my intercessions can never be yours, but the Holy Ghost makes intercession in our particular lives, without which intercession someone will be impoverished.
