The goal of God’s salvation, provision, and revelation as seen in the book of Exodus is His building, the tabernacle; as believers in Christ, we need to go on with the Lord and experience Him as reality of all the furnishings of the tabernacle so that we may be part of His building, His heart’s […]
Dwelling in God’s House by Praising Him and Having the Highways to Zion in our Heart
Being Produced as Overcomers, the Eternal Mount Zion as the New Jerusalem Today
The New Jerusalem is not only the consummation of the city of God but also of the Mount Zion, the overcomers, who are the elevation and the beauty of God’s city.

bless the Lord now, all you servants of the Lord! Jehovah bless you from Zion!
Psalm 134 is the conclusion of Psalm 133, and Psalm 133 is the continuation of Psalm 132. At the end of Psalm 132 we see that God enters into His rest and we are satisfied in the habitation of God. As a continuation, Psalm 133 describes the sweet and wonderful church life in oneness under […]
the situation of the overcomers in Zion, the place where God is fully at rest
Psalm 132 is the praise of David in his going up to Zion concerning Jehovah’s habitation and rest in Zion. God desires Zion and He finds rest here, and David also desires God’s dwelling place!

We need to take a strong decision to be on the highways to Zion today – we need to pray that the Lord would produce us as His overcomers today! The Holy of Holies is Zion, the place where God is, His presence – and this is what we aim for! We are not satisfied to be “in Jerusalem”, in the general church life, but we want to be on the highways to Zion, on a journey toward Zion, by experiencing the Triune God internally for the Body of Christ in all His consummations! Today, in the church age, we need to be the God-men who are perfected and matured to be Zion, the overcomers, the vital groups within the churches. [read more online]
the victorious Christ will return to recover the earth when He gains Zion, those fully open to Him!
Before the Lord Jesus can come as the King, He needs to have in all the local churches the reality of Zion – He needs to have His overcomers as His bride ready! In Psalm 51 we see how the goal of our repentance and confession marrying God’s forgiveness is that it amazingly produces a burden for the building up of Zion. The Lord needs to gain Zion, the aspect of the church that is fully open to Him, the overcomers who will hasten His return!
