经 节：那时，敬畏耶和华的彼此谈论，耶和华侧耳而听，且有纪念册在祂面前，记录那敬畏耶和华、思念祂名的人。（玛拉基书三章16节）
在神的国度中，神的心意是让同属基督一灵的基督徒们可以合一。遇见另一位基督徒与你有相同的忧心与负担，是令人极其兴奋的！神通常会带领另一位信徒到你的身边，帮助你的服事，及关心神放置在你心中的负担。
当神的儿女全心全意因着神的国度合一时，神会在祂的儿女身上，释放祂大能的同在。圣经告诉我们，只要地上有两、三个基督徒在一起，敬虔地讨论有关神的事工，神会很高兴倾听他们，并且回应他们所关心的事物。当两、三位信徒在一起，同心合意为某事祷告时，神以自己大能的同在，来回应他们同心合意的祈求（马太福音十八：19～20）。当两个门徒在路上走着，讨论基督被钉死在十字架上的困惑，耶稣添加他们，并且帮助他们了解当时所发生事件的意义（路加福音廿四：13～32）。
如果你正为自己的家人、教会或朋友忧心，求神带来与你有相同看法的基督徒，分享你的负担，并且能够与你同心为此事祷告。不要企图单独扛起这个重担。你可以单独为此事祷告，然而，你会失去与一群基督徒同心合意彼此代祷，及享受神同在的祝福。神编织进入祂国度的每个事件，都是要促进我们彼此相依，而不是要鼓励个人主义。当你面对忧虑时，慎重地寻找可以与你同担的基督徒。
The
Lord Hears
Then
those who feared the LORD spoke to one another, And the LORD listened and heard
them; So a book of remembrance was written before Him For those who fear the LORD
And who meditate on His name. (Malachi 3:16)
God
has designed His kingdom so that Christians with kindred spirits join together.
It is exciting when you find another Christian who shares the same concerns and
burdens that you do! Often, God will graciously bring another believer
alongside you who will undergird you in the work and concerns God has placed on
your heart. God releases a powerful dimension of His presence to His children
when they unite in heart and mind regarding His kingdom. The Bible says that
when two or more Christians meet and reverently discuss matters concerning the
Lord, God is pleased to listen to them and to respond to their concerns. When
two or three believers agree in prayer, God chooses to respond to their unity
by making His powerful presence known in their midst (Matt. 18:19–20). When two
people walked together and discussed the confusing events of Christ’s
crucifixion, Jesus joined them and helped them understand the events of their
day (Luke 24:13–32).
If
you are carrying concerns about your family or your church or your friends, ask
God to bring like-minded believers around you to share the burden with you in
conversation and in prayer. Don’t attempt to bear your load of cares on your
own. You may pray about them, but you will miss the blessing of uniting
together with a group of believers who join together to intercede for one
another and to enjoy God’s presence. Everything God has woven into the fabric
of His kingdom promotes interdependence, not individualism. As you face your
concerns, deliberately seek out other believers with whom you can stand and
share your load.
