a Christian = a God-man

Like Daniel and his companions in chapter 5 of Daniel, we need to be victorious over the ignorance concerning the result of the debauchery before God and the insult to His holiness; instead of exalting ourselves before man and God, we need to exercise our spirit and have an excellent spirit, humble ourselves and honour God, for our very breath is in His hand. Lord Jesus, we love You, we worship…

Like Daniel and his companions, we need to be victorious over the covering that hinders people from seeing the ruling of the heavens by the God of the heavens; God administrates the universe to fulfill His purpose which is to give Christ preeminence in all things both outwardly and in our personal universe. Lord Jesus, we praise You and we honor You today. We give You the first place in all…

Like Daniel and his companions, we need to be victorious over the seduction of idol worship, realising that whatever is not the true God in our regenerated spirit is an idol replacing God; when we’re in the fire of suffering and persecution, the Lord is with us to make the fire a pleasant place to walk about. Lord Jesus, we love You and we serve You! Amen, Lord, we choose to worship You and serve…

We believers in Christ need to be victorious over the demonic diet given to us by the ruler of this age by eating Jesus for the building up of the church, and we need to be victorious over the devilish blinding preventing people from seeing the great human image and the crushing stone as the divine history within human history. Lord Jesus, make us Your overcoming saints today. May we be those who…

By building the church and entering into the church life, we are saved from God’s judgment on today’s evil generation and separated from this generation to usher in a new age; may we not be afraid to be different but remain in the divine revelation and minister the building and builded God into others for the building up of the church. Lord Jesus, we give ourselves to You today to just enjoy You,…

Noah’s life was a life that changed the age, and Noah’s work was a work that changed the age; he received an all-inclusive revelation of what God’s intention is, he saw God’s desire, and he worked with God to build the ark, we need to build the church as the ark to end this age and bring in the kingdom. Lord Jesus, we want to have a life and work that changes this age and brings in the age of the…

As believers in Christ, we need to find grace in the eyes of the Lord, for it is His grace that works in us, does everything in us, and makes us His age-turners; His word is the word of grace, we experience the grace of life as we meet with the saints, we enjoy Christ as our all-sufficient grace, we labor by the power of His grace, and we do everything by grace to live out righteousness, for…

As Noah walked with God, God showed him the true situation of the corrupt age in which he lived, and Noah found grace in the sight of Jehovah; we need to come to the throne of grace and find grace in the eyes of God, for grace is the presence of God enjoyed by us to do everything for us, and we enjoy this presence by loving the Lord. Lord Jesus, we want to be those who walk with God today. Unveil…

Noah’s life was a life that changed the age, and if we prayerfully consider his life, we see that this life inherits the godly ways of the forefathers: Adam’s way of salvation, Abel’s way of offering to please God, Enosh’s way of calling on the name of the Lord, and Enoch’s way of walking with God. Lord Jesus, we want to have a life that changes the age we live in today! We love You and we give…

In Genesis 6 we see that Noah believed in God, walked with God, pleased God, and enjoyed all that God is; in the midst of that crooked and perverted generation, Noah found grace in the sight of Jehovah and changed the age, and today we need to find grace in the eyes of the Lord to cooperate with Him to change this age. Lord Jesus, we love You! We open to You from the depths of our being. Speak to…

In the book of Job we see that sufferings may not be God’s judgment but rather that God wants to consume us so that we may gain God more, for His intention is to dispense Himself in Christ by the Spirit into us to be our life and everything so that we become His expression; we live and work in this principle by doing everything by the Spirit. Lord Jesus, unveil us to see God’s intention with…

In the book of Daniel we see that we need to redeem the time to enjoy Christ as the supreme preciousness of God for us to be constituted with Him to be men of preciousness, even preciousness itself, as His personal treasure; we need to see a vision of the excellent Christ to be encouraged, stabilised, and consoled, even to be infused with Him to become precious like Him. Lord Jesus, we want to…

We need to go on through the Spirit to the Son and even to the Father to enter into the intimate experience of our dear Father, and we need to realise that light shines from above, from heaven, for there’s one revelation and one vision through the one New Testament ministry. Lord Jesus, we want to go on with You. Take us on in our experience and enjoyment of the Triune God so that we may also…

As he lived in the wicked age at his time, Noah found grace in the sight of Jehovah; we need to come forward to the throne of grace in our spirit to receive mercy and find grace for timely help, and we need to walk with God so that He may mingle Himself with us for God’s building, for Him to gain a corporate God-man, the mingling of God and man. Lord Jesus, may we be those who find grace in the…

It is amazing to see how the lives of Noah, Daniel, and Job reveal the Triune God dispensing Himself into us to fulfill His eternal economy; with Noah we see God the Father in His faithfulness to dispense Christ into us, with Daniel we see Christ the Son as coming as the crushing stone to end this age and bring in God’s kingdom, and with Job we see God the Spirit transforming His people to make…

Noah, Daniel, and Job are patterns revealing how we can live an overcoming life on the line of life to fulfill the economy of God, that is, how can we live and work according to the vision of the age to change the age; with Noah in particular we see God’s faithfulness to keep His eternal covenant and dispense Christ into us to make us His wise exhibition. Lord Jesus, we want to be Your overcomers…

The Lord is coming back soon, and we say, Amen, Come, Lord Jesus; at the same time, we want to be watchful and be prepared for His coming to be His built-up Body and prepared Bride by growing unto maturity and being built together so that He may gain what He is after before He returns! Amen, come Lord Jesus! Come soon, dear Lord! We are here for You. We live for You and unto You. We give…
