Jacob’s prophesying with blessing in Genesis 49 applies both to the twelve tribes of Israel (his twelve sons) and to our Christian experience today in the church. In his blessing of the first three sons we don’t see many positive things – Reuben lost the birthright and didn’t receive the blessing because he indulged in […]
Building an Altar at Bethel and Realizing God’s All-Sufficiency in the Church Life
September 24, 2014 by Leave a Comment
At his second coming to Bethel, Jacob built an altar there and called it El-Bethel, and God appeared to him and said to him, “I am the All-sufficient God” (Gen. 35:11). Previously, Jacob built an altar at Shechem, where he also pitched his tent and was settled for a while, having a life of ease. […]
Today’s Nazarites Overcome Death and Natural Affection; They Bless Others with God!
August 30, 2014 by 1 Comment
Today the Lord needs Nazarites, those who are consecrated to Him for His purpose. All the believers in Christ are His priests, but they have failed Him in accomplishing His purpose. Therefore, God is looking for those who willingly consecrate themselves to Him, separating themselves unto Him and sanctifying themselves for His purpose. These have […]

A consecrated person is a Nazarite, one who voluntarily separates and sanctifies himself unto the Lord for His purpose. God has a provision for those who love Him and want to give themselves to Him for His purpose: even though you may not have been born of Aaron’s family in the tribe of Levi, you […]
Taking Christ as our Burnt Offering to Have an Upper Room Consecration and Become Ashes
August 27, 2014 by 2 Comments
The church life began when a group of people had an “upper room consecration” to become a corporate burnt offering to God for His satisfaction; this triggered and drew God’s blessing, and many were “burnt” and attracted to Christ by their corporate testimony. In our Christian life we need to never “let the fire on […]
Laying our Hands on Christ as our Burnt Offering to be Identified with Him and Live Him
August 26, 2014 by 1 Comment
In looking into the matter of consecration we need to see that, no matter how much we love the Lord and pursue Him, we are NOT absolute for God and we are NOT fully consecrated to Him. There is only ONE Person that ever lived a life of being absolute for God and His purpose, […]
