Hallelujah, Christ is our Sabbath rest, and before we could do anything for God and with God, we need to enjoy Christ, be satisfied with Him, and enjoy rest and satisfaction with Him! In Exo. 31:12-17 we see that, after a long record concerning the building up of God’s dwelling place, there is a repetition […]
We need to Express God and Represent Him to be His Kingdom to Receive God’s Blessing
May 14, 2020 by Leave a Comment
Our God is a God of blessing and we can receive God’s blessing; He wants to bless His people, and when His people become His kingdom as a sphere of God’s authority, He blesses us. After Moses put before the children of Israel the laws, statutes, ordinances, and judgements by respeaking the law in Deuteronomy, […]
The Church today is God’s House for His Expression and God’s City for His Dominion
April 4, 2020 by Leave a Comment
God’s purpose is fulfilled in the church as the God’s house and the God’s city; His house speaks of His dwelling place for His expression, and His city speaks of His representation with His authority in His kingdom.

![The third step of God’s procedure in fulfilling His purpose was to work Himself into man to make man His complement. Adam here [in Genesis 2:18] typifies God in Christ as the real, universal Husband, who is seeking a wife for Himself (Rom. 5:14; cf. Isa. 54:5; John 3:29; 2 Cor. 11:2; Eph. 5:31-32; Rev. 19:7; 21:9). Adam’s need for a wife typifies and portrays God’s need, in His economy, to have a wife as His complement.

In Genesis 2 we see a picture of Christ and the church in the types of Adam and Eve; God wants not only Christ (as typified by Adam) but also the church – God wants Christ and the church. Christ is the mystery of God, He is the explanation and expression of God, and He […]

Seeing the Vision, Hearing God’s Word, and Having God’s Hand upon us to Meet His Need
February 16, 2017 by 6 Comments
Whenever a man on earth is fully open to God and is willing to be one with Him, the heavens are opened to him, he sees visions of God, he hears God’s words, and God’s hand is upon him to lead and direct him, causing him to take action to meet God’s need. Unfortunately, we […]
