Prayer for the Lord to preserve and use the United States for the preparation of His bride
祷告求主继续保守美国,好预备祂的新妇,并使圣徒担负活基督的责任,有基督作实际,作召会生活的实际内容,好让身体生活达到罗马十二章的实际,自然而然预备基督的新妇,迎接祂的再来(腓一21上,罗十二1~2,5,启十九7)。
腓一21上 - 因为在我,活着就是基督
Rom. 12:1-2, 5—I exhort you therefore, brothers, through the compassions of God to present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, well pleasing to God, which is your reasonable service. And do not be fashioned according to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of the mind that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and well pleasing and perfect…So we who are many are one Body in Christ, and individually members one of another.
启十九7 - 我们要喜乐欢腾,将荣耀归与祂;因为羔羊婚娶的时候到了,新妇也自己预备好了。
