According to the entire Bible, a priest is not one who mainly does things for God to serve Him but one who is absolutely and thoroughly mingled with God. When a priest entered into the tabernacle and passed through the Holy Place to enter the Holy of Holies in God’s presence, he was “smoked” with […]
A Priest is in the Process of being Mingled with God in his Daily Christian Life
Being Renewed Day by Day to have God’s Element Added to us and Live in Resurrection
In order for us to live in resurrection, we must be renewed day by day with the fresh supply of resurrection life (2 Cor. 4:16). God is new, His life is new, resurrection is new, and everything about God is new; we are old, getting older, and dying, and nothing we can do in and […]
Being Self-Sacrificing Persons with the Spirit of Martyrdom for God’s Satisfaction
Daniel and his three companions are a pattern to us as self-sacrificing person with a spirit of martyrdom. They didn’t care for the king’s decree of the punishment if they don’t obey him – they loved God more and feared more of offending God than offending the king. Daniel went to his room and prayed […]
What does it mean to give the Lord the preeminence, the first place, in everything?
To give the Lord the first place in our life practically means to repent and do the first works. Rev. 2:5 warns us that if we don’t repent and do the first works, the Lord will remove the lampstand. These works issue from our first love for the Lord – they are a work issuing from a heart filled with zeal for the Lord’s love, and this is precious in the Lord’s eyes. We love the Lord so much that we just do the first works – and they come out of our zeal, our love for Him! In that day, when we will stand before God at His judgement seat, He will appreciate how much of what we have done out of love for Him. Only those things we do motivated by our love for the Lord are considered gold, silver, and precious stones. If we don’t do these works, the Lord will take the lampstand! Whatever we do in the church life, we need to love the Lord and do the first works – and we will be a corporate expression of the Triune God everywhere on the earth as the golden lampstands!

contact the Lord whenever you have a spare moment! (sharing from the yp conference in Poland)
Dear saints, in this past winter young people’s conference in Lipowiec, Poland, we got into the subject of the very beginning of the book of Genesis. Gen 1:1 says, In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Who was in the beginning? God! In the beginning of everything there is God. The question is […]
although we have been positioned to drink of the Spirit, we need to be thirsty for God to drink of Him!
Many times we think that God wants some super-hard-and-complicated things from us to do for Him, and so we feel really powerless…. even to “express God in all that He is” – by and in ourselves – seems so impossible and unattainable! Yet God’s way to accomplish His purpose of having an expression on the […]
