2这事例是九个事例中的第三个,启示垂死的人需要医治。这事例说到一个大臣的儿子快要死了。人类首先需要重生,其次需要满足,第三需要医治。我们多多少少都需要医治。就某种意义说,我们都在活著;但就另一种意义说,我们都在渐渐死去。一个刚出生的婴儿,他母亲会想到他是在渐渐长大,其实这婴儿是在渐渐死去。地上每个人都在渐渐死去。你若年轻,还不到三十岁,也许不觉得你是在渐渐死去。但是到了六、七十岁,你就领悟你是在渐渐死去。七十年的人生可比作七十块钱,活一年就等于花一块钱。你活到六十岁,就花了六十块钱。你到了六十九岁,就是说你只剩下一块钱了。这一块钱花去了,你就到了尽头。所以,表面看来人是在活著,实际上却是在死去。这就是我不要我的儿孙为我庆生的缘故,因为生日告诉我,我是在渐渐死去。请告诉我,你的年岁是在增加,还是在减少?我们活著的日子是越过越少。我不愿作过了七十岁的人,我希望不要再老,但是没有办法。我们都需要医治。我们已经重生;我们可以日复一日接触主这活的灵,作我们的满足。此外,我们还需要医治。我们都病了,是快要死的人。我们是堕落的人,软弱、脆弱、垂死,需要主的医治。你若得著主耶稣的医治,你的死就要变成活。让我告诉你们我向主私下的祈祷。我告诉主说,『主阿,你来的时候近了。求你恩待我,让我不见死。主,我要面对面和你相会。让我活到你来。』阿利路亚,祂即将来临!当祂来临时,祂就要施行医治。当祂还在途中时,就在医治我们的灵、魂、身体。倘若你要健康,就需要享受耶稣的医治。耶稣是真正的保健食品店,来就耶稣,接触祂,并享受祂。你若不断有分于耶稣,就会得到上好的食物,真正的保健食品。我们何等需要神圣生命的医治!
2This case, the third among the nine, reveals the dying people’s need of healing. This case concerns the son of a royal official who was about to die. Mankind firstly needs regeneration, secondly satisfaction, and thirdly healing. We all need a certain amount of healing. In a sense, we are living; in another sense, we all are dying. When a baby is newly born, his mother would think that he is growing. Actually the baby is dying. Everyone on earth is dying. If you are young, still under thirty years of age, you may not have the sense that you are dying. However, when you reach the age of sixty or seventy, you realize that you are dying. A life span of seventy years may be likened to seventy dollars. Each year that is lived is the equivalent of spending a dollar. Once you have lived sixty years, you have spent sixty dollars. When you reach the age of sixty-nine, it means that you have only one dollar left. Once that dollar has been spent, you will be exhausted. So, human beings are apparently living, but actually dying. This is why I do not ask my children or grandchildren to celebrate my birthday, for my birthday tells me that I am dying. Tell me, is your age increasing or decreasing? The longer we live, the less time we have to live. I do not want to reach the age of seventy. I would like to stay back, but I cannot do it. We all need healing. We have been regenerated and, day by day, we may contact the Lord, the living Spirit, for our satisfaction. In addition to this, we need healing. We are all sick and dying people. We are fallen people, weak and fragile, who are dying and who need the Lord’she al ing. If you have the healing of the Lord Jesus, your dying will become living. Let me share with you my secret prayer to the Lord. I have told the Lord, “Lord, the time of Your coming is near. Do me a favor—keep me from seeing death. Lord, I want to see You physically face to face. Keep me living until You come.” Hallelujah, He is coming! While He is coming, He is healing. While He is on His way, He is healing our spirit, soul, and body. If you want to be healthy, you need to enjoy the healing of Jesus. Jesus is the real health food store. Come to Jesus, contact Him, and enjoy Him. If you participate in Jesus continually, you will have the best food, the real health food. How we need the healing of the divine life!
