基督徒里面有一个奥秘，不只有奥秘的生命，不只有奥秘的救主，还有一个奥秘的国度。在他们里头有一个奥秘的政府，有一个奥秘的宝座，有一个奥秘的权柄，有一个奥秘的掌权，在他们里头有一套奥秘的故事。今天你若是一个得救的人，你若是理会你里头这个奥秘的故事，你就常常会经历国度的掌权在你里面。当你要和妻子争执时，因着你里头有这个权柄，你就不争了。我信弟兄们都有这样的经历。
你若是和妻子起争执，有一件事是铁定的，就是不必争太多，只要说上几句话，你回房间后就不能祷告了。可能你有一些叹息，但你无法有真实的祷告。可能连第二天早晨的读经也读不下去了。为什么？因为你里面颠三倒四，你里面的宝座给你推翻了，你没有服权柄，没有守那个次序，你里头的次序乱了。这个颠三倒四的情形，可能要过了三、四天，才慢慢恢复。这时，你要对主说，‘主阿，赦免我，我实在是个软弱的人，我这一次又失败了。’
主就要对你说，去向妻子认错，说你不该和她争吵。这时，你会觉得脸皮拉不下来。你是作丈夫的，怎么到她面前认错？这在一般男人的感觉里，真是觉得不能顺服。这一个不能顺服，就叫你晚上又不能祷告了，即使有祷告，也是没有生命供应的祷告。为什么？因为你里面的宝座被推翻了，你里面是颠三倒四的。然而，你若是顺服，快快的向妻子认错，说，‘我实在是失败，请你原谅我。’这时，你再回到房里，立即能赞美，里头的灵也活了。
这些都是很小的事，但却是个很大的原则。这位荣耀的主、浩大的王，今天乃是卑微的住在你我里面，要在你我里面设立祂的宝座，设立祂的国度。可惜，我们常常似知不知，忽略了这个启示和事实。我们里面的这一位，不仅是救主，是生命，还是君王，是万王之王；不仅是在十字架上，更是在宝座上。今天，祂乃是带着宝座进到我们里面；因此，整个宇宙的权柄，天上地上的权柄，整个神的国度都在我们里面了。

Christ Is Reigning in Us – Dan. 7:14
There is also a mysterious kingdom.Within it there is a mysterious government, a mysterious throne, a mysterious authority, a mysterious ruling and a mysterious story. If you are a believer and pay attention to this mysterious story within you, you will often experience the reign of the kingdom within you. For instance, when you try to argue with your wife, you are unable to argue with her due to this inward authority. I believe some brothers have had this kind of experience.
If you have an argument with your wife, one thing is for sure: you don’t have to argue too much, just say a few words, then you won’t be able to pray after you return to your room. You may have some sighs, but you cannot have real prayers. It is possible that you can’t even read the Bible the next morning. Why is that? Because you are in a state of confusion inwardly, the throne within you has been overthrown, you have not submitted to authority to kept the order, and the order within you has been messed up. It may take three or four days for this topsy-turvy situation to slowly recover. At this time, you have to say to the Lord, “Lord, forgive me. I am really a weak person and failed again this time.”
The Lord may tell you to admit your mistake to your wife and say that you should not have quarreled with her. At this time, you may feel that you can’t lose your face. As a husband, how can you admit your mistake in front of her? From the perspective of ordinary men, this is unacceptable. If you are unable to obey this, you will probably not be able to pray at night. Even if you pray, it is a prayer without the supply of life. Why is that? Because the throne within you has been overthrown and you are topsy-turvy within. However, if you are submissive, quickly admit your mistake to your wife, and say, “I’m a real failure, please forgive me.” When you return to the room, you will immediately be able to praise and the spirit within you will be alive.
These are all small things, but there is a major principle. This glorious Lord and mighty king lives humbly in you and me today to establish his throne and his kingdom within. Unfortunately, we often seem to know it, but ignore this revelation and fact. The one within us is not only the Savior, the life, but also the king, the king of kings; not only on the cross, but also on the throne. Today he has entered into us with the throne. Thus, the authority of the entire universe, the authority in heaven and on earth, and the entire kingdom of God are within us.
