a Christian = a God-man

God’s intention is to have persons who are on the line of life, those who eat the tree of life, live on the line of life, and do not rely on their own natural abilities, uprightness, or skills but fully depend on God as life to express God and represent God; for this, He allows a certain measure of suffering to strip us and reconstitute us with Himself. Lord Jesus, we give ourselves to You for…

The two trees – the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil – are two sources issuing in two ways of life and two principles of living which consummate in two ends; we want to eat the tree of life to live in the way of life according to the principle of life to consummate the New Jerusalem, God’s city of life. Lord Jesus, unveil us to see the tree of life and the tree of the…

In the divine revelation there are two trees, two sources, two ways, two principles, and two consummations; we need to see a vision of the two trees – the tree of life and the tree of the knowledge of good and evil – and reject any knowledge, good, and evil apart from God Himself in Christ as the tree of life. Lord Jesus, grant us to see a vision of the tree of life. May we see that God in Christ…

In Daniel 6 we see how the enemy frustrates the prayer for God’s move, for Daniel prayed three times a day, and Satan wanted to stop this time of prayer; we can bring God’s economy into fullness and into fulfilment except by prayer, and we need to overcome to pray and pray to overcome. Lord Jesus, we give ourselves to pray, even to pray consistently. Make us those who pray one with You and one…

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…
