Ministering to the Lord not by Human Effort or Sweat but in God’s Rest and Blessing
According to Ezek. 44:17-18, those who minister to the Lord should not wear woolen but linen garments, so that they would not sweat; this means that as we serve the Lord we should do a work with no sweat, no human effort, a work under God’s blessing. We want to be those who minister to […]
Dwelling in our Spirit and in Christ, and being a Chaste Bride for the Lord Today
![In the Lord Jesus, Satan as the ruler of the world had no ground, no chance, no hope, no possibility in anything....Here is a man of prayer who said that Satan, the ruler of the world, had nothing in Him [John 14:30]....Christ was a man of prayer, a man who is one with God, lives in the presence of God continuously, trusts in God in His suffering and persecution, and in whom Satan has nothing.

Don’t let your pride hinder you from being saved daily! (college age conference sharing)
What is life? John 14:6a says, Jesus said to him, I am the way and the reality and the life. Life is the source that causes us to realise Christ. This realisation causes us to be in reality which puts us on the way! What does this life do for us? John 4:14 says, But […]
we need to pass through Gilgal, Bethel, Jericho, and the river Jordan – for the new creation!
