The typical tradition of Korean Church that is not found in other countries in the world is the Early Morning Prayer Meeting. 韩国教会的典型传统, 是清晨祷告会, 在世界上, 沒有在其他国家发现。
The Korean Church was planted and grew up through the dawn prayer meeting. 韩国教会的建立與增长，是通过黎明清晨祷告会。
Furthermore, the dawn prayer meeting contributed to the founding of the nation and its economic growth. 此外，黎明清晨祷告会, 貢獻了韩国的創建和韩国的经济增长。
However, one of the main reasons for the decline of the Church in these days can be found in the decline of dawn prayer meeting. 然而，近期教会走下坡，发现主要原因是黎明清晨祷告会下降。
Therefore, it is necessary to establish the theology of dawn prayer and apply it to the gospel ministry as well as to the individual Christian life. 因此，有必要建立黎明祈祷的神学, 和应用到福音事工，以及个别基督徒的生活。
As I think of this subject, I found it is best to learn from the early morning prayer of Jesus. 当我想到这个问题，我发现最好是从耶稣清晨祷告的学习。
This led me to begin my preaching from Jesus. 这使我开始我的传講, 从”耶稣”講起。
1. Jesus, Seeking God in the Early Morning. 耶稣在清晨寻求 神。
耶稣的晨祷（马可福音1:35-38） 次日早晨、天未亮的時候、耶穌起來、到曠野地方去、在那裡禱告。西門和同伴追了他去。遇見了就對他說、眾人都找你。耶穌對他們說、我們可以往別處去、到鄰近的鄉村、我也好在那裡傳道．因為我是為這事出來的。

Jesus, Having Communion with God in the Morning 耶稣清晨與天父上帝交通
Jesus’ purpose to go out to the lonely place early in the morning was to pray. 耶稣的目的是, 走出去到偏僻的地方, 清早就是祈祷。
Prayer is a meeting with God and having communion with Him. 祷告是与神相會, 并与祂交通。
In prayer we meet him, listen to his voice, and pour out our heart to make ourselves known to him. 在祷告中，我们與祂相會，听祂的声音，傾倒着自己的心去知道祂。
This leads us to say that the prayer is a dialogue with God. 这引領我们去说，祈祷是与上帝的对话。
The dialogue is the most important element in communion. 对话是在交流中最重要的元素。
Through communion we come to share ourselves with each other and make our friendly relationship developed and accumulated. 通过交流，我们来彼此分享自己，让我们的友好关系发展和积累。
Without communion, no affection is found. 没有交流，感情没有被发现。
The relationship without communion is dead relationship. 没有交流的关系是死的关系。
We human being is created to have communion with God. 我们人类被创造是与神交流。
God made man to have relationship with him. 上帝造人與祂有关系。
In Eden God made Adam to respond to him when he called him. 在伊甸园上帝创造亚当, 回应祂, 当祂呼叫他時。
Man is not created to support himself. 人类受造不是为了供應自己。
Man was created to have relationship with God, the source of life and supported by him all the necessary elements and resources to maintain his life. 人类受造是与神，生命本源的关系，并供應他的所有所需要素, 和资源, 来维系他的生命。

He chose death instead of life. 他选择了死亡，而不是生命。The core of communion is a dialogue. 交流的核心是对话。

One of the main reasons to seek the quiet place in the morning is to listen to the Word of God carefully. 在清晨寻求安静的地方, 其中一个主要的原因，是仔细地听神的话。
If the one side talk is a dialogue with God, there will be no need to find a quiet place to pray to God. 如果單方谈话是与上帝的对话，就没有必要找一个安静的地方，向上帝祈祷。
Since the Lord is the God of omniscience and omnipresence, he has a power to listen and discern what we are saying even in the market places. 由于主是无所不知, 和无所不在的神，祂有权柄能力垂听和辨别我们说的是什么，即使在市场的地方。
The key point of prayer is to listen carefully to the Word of God. 祷告的关键是仔细聆听神的话语。
Jesus said, “I gave them the Words that you gave me.”(John 17:8). 耶稣说:“因為祢所賜給我的道、我已經賜給他們…….。” （约翰福音17：8）
When God gave him the Word to Jesus? 何時上帝將祂的话语给耶稣？

Not only he received the Word from God, but also he wants his disciple to ask God what they need. 他不仅从上帝得到了話，但他也希望祂的門徒求问上帝, 他们需要的是什么。
Thus he taught them how to pray. 因此，他教他们如何祷告。
It is also necessary for us to learn how to go before the Lord with a proper manner. 这也是需要我们来学习, 如何在主面前行走, 以一个正確的方式。
We need to be dressed up to meet the King and we need to use the noble speech with the learned style. 我们需要穿戴整齊朝見国王，我们需要用高貴的說話, 以所学到的型態。
It is naïve to keep demanding. 这是天真的, 保持高要求的。
Jesus seemed to wash his and be dressed up to meet the Father and knelt down in his presence. 耶稣似乎洗清潔和穿戴整齊，與父相會, 在祂面前跪下来。
The communion is a bilateral dialogue. 交流是双向對話。
One must speak and express himself as he listens to his counterpart. 一個人必须说话表达自己，當听聆他的对方時。
It is not personal and normal relationship only to listen and not to open his heart. 这不是个人的正常关系，只有倾听，而沒有打开他的心。
Likewise we also should open our mind and talk whatever we want him known and ask what we want from him. 同样，我们也应该敞开我们的思想和谈话, 任何我们想让他知道的，與求问我们想从祂得什麼。

Here As if one pours out water on the ground, she poured her soul before the Lord. 在这里，好像一个人倒出水在地上，她傾倒了她的灵魂在主面前。
Hannah poured out her affliction, frustration, sorrow and bitterness before the Lord. 哈拿倾诉她的苦情，挫折，悲伤和痛苦在主面前。
She did not pour it on her husband but on the Lord. 她没有傾倒在她的丈夫，但是倒給主。
We cannot pray to anyone. 我们不能祈求任何人。
We can pray only to God who can understand our situation and has power to help us in need.我们可以祈求, 只有神能够理解我们的处境，并有能力来帮助我们需要的人。
In spite of the love, comfort and encouragement of her husband, Hannah could not be satisfied, because he did not have an ability or power to solve her fundamental problems. 尽管她的丈夫爱，安慰和鼓励，哈拿不能满足，因为她的丈夫没有能力或权柄，解决哈拿根本的问题。
However, God can do it. 然而，神能做到。
God can do it because he is omniscience and omnipotent. 上帝能做到这一点，因为他是无所不知，无所不能。
Since we have this faith, early in the morning we can go to him and pour out our heart and confess our love and ask his help. 既然我们有这个信心，清晨我们可以去, 傾倒我们的心，承认我们的爱，并要求祂的帮助。
It is not written in the text what did Jesus hear and what did he ask to God. 在經文中不是写著耶稣怎样聆听 ?和他怎么问神?
But the following event suggests us that Jesus talked very important things with God. 但是，下面的事件向我们表明，耶稣谈到与神，非常重要的事。
