5月29日 无法阻止的关系
到那日，你们要奉我的名祈求……父自己爱你们。（约十六26-27）
“到那日，你们要奉我的名祈求”，就是依神的本性祈求，并不是“用我的名作为符咒”，乃是“你既与我如此亲密，就必与我合而为一”了。“那日”不是将来的某一日，而是指此时此地。“父自己爱你们”－－那合一是如此的完整与绝对！主并非说，人生从此就没有逆境；而是他深知父神的心意，便借着圣灵的洗，把我们提升到天上，在那里将神的旨意显明给我们。
“你们若向父求什么……”“那日”，是神与圣徒的关系不受拦阻的日子。耶稣如何站在父神面前，洁白无暇，我们也借着圣灵的洗所产生的大能功效，同样被提升到那关系里去－－“使他们合而为一，像我们一样。”
“……他就必因我的名，赐给你们。”耶稣说，父神知道我们的祷告。何等大的挑战！因着耶稣复活升天的大能，并神所差下来的圣灵，我们得以进到与父神至高的旨意联合。在耶稣基督放我们在这高贵的地位上，我们得以奉他的名，以他的性情祷告；这性情也就是圣灵赐给我们的。
耶稣说：“你们奉我的名，无论向父求什么，他就赐给你们。”耶稣基督至尊的品德，是经得起他自己话语的考验的。
祈祷◆噢，主啊，今天是大施恩福的日子。为着你伟大的计划，我感谢你；噢，主啊，以你的能力和恩典来推行你的计划。
May 29 Undisturbed Relationship
“At that day ye shall ask in My name . . .” “The
Father Himself loveth you.” John 16:26, 27
“At that day ye shall ask in My name,” i.e., in My nature. Not – “You
shall use My name as a magic word,” but – “You will be so intimate with Me that
you will be one with Me.” “That day” is not a day hereafter, but a day meant
for here and now. “The Father Himself loveth you” – the union is so complete
and absolute. Our Lord does not mean that life will be free from external
perplexities, but that just as He knew the Father’s heart and mind, so by the
baptism of the Holy Ghost He can lift us into the heavenly places where He can
reveal the counsels of God to us.
“Whatsoever ye shall ask the Father in My name. . . .” “That day” is a
day of undisturbed relationship between God and the saint. Just as Jesus stood
unsullied in the presence of His Father, so by the mighty efficacy of the
baptism of the Holy Ghost, we can be lifted into that relationship – “that they
may be one, even as We are One.”
“He will give
it you.” Jesus says that God will recognize our prayers. What a challenge! By
the Resurrection and Ascension power of Jesus, by the sent-down Holy Ghost, we
can be lifted into such a relationship with the Father that we are at one with
the perfect sovereign will of God by our free choice even as Jesus was. In that
wonderful position, placed there by Jesus Christ, we can pray to God in His
name, in His nature, which is gifted to us by the Holy Ghost, and Jesus says –
“What soever ye shall ask the Father in My name, He will give it you.” – The
sovereign character of Jesus Christ is tested by His own statements.
