Ministering to the Lord not by Human Effort or Sweat but in God’s Rest and Blessing

October 18, 2017 by aGodMan 7 Comments

Linen garments signify a daily living and walk in the life-giving Spirit by the life of Christ; such a living and walk is pure, clean, and fine. Woolen garments would cause the priests to sweat (v. 18), a sign of fallen man laboring under God’s curse, without God’s blessing, by his own energy and strength (Gen. 3:19). The work that causes sweat is the work that comes out of human effort without the blessing from God the Father; everyone ministering to the Lord must do a work that causes no sweat, a work without human effort and fleshly strength - Isa. 30:15a. Crystallization-Study of Ezekiel (2), outline 9

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 […]

Ministering to the Lord by Drawing Near to Him and Spending Time with Him in Prayer

October 17, 2017 by aGodMan 7 Comments

Whatever we do in the Lord’s service should be for the Lord’s sake; it should be for His satisfaction, His heart’s desire, His happiness, His goal, His pleasure, and His glory.

The Lord desires us to minister to Him by drawing near to Him, spend time before the Lord and pray more, and wait for His will to be revealed to us and infused into us, so that we may minister not only to His house but to the Lord Himself. In Ezek. 44 the Lord […]

Ministering to the Lord by Giving Him the First Place and by Focusing only on Him

October 16, 2017 by aGodMan 10 Comments

Are we really ministering to the believers or to Him? Is the focus of our work really on the work or on the Lord? There is a great difference. Ministering to the house is extremely different from ministering to Jesus Christ. We can see many today ministering and serving, but they are only in the outer court. They have not come near to the table...The ministering that the Lord is after—the ministering that He is continually after—is to minister to Him. His desire is not for us to do His work. Laboring is certainly important, plowing the fields is important, and feeding the cattle is also important, but the Lord does not look at these things. Rather, He is after the ministering to God and the serving of God. He wants His slaves to minister to Him and to serve Him. Oh, how happy are those who are able to minister to Him. Watchman Nee, Ministering to the House or to God?

This week in our morning revival time with the Lord we come to the matters of Ministering to the Lord to enjoy Him as the hidden manna, the budding rod, and the law of life. We need to be those who minister not just to the house of God but minister to the Lord. We […]

We need to Live the Body Life and Keep every Principle of the Body in the Church Life

October 14, 2017 by aGodMan 10 Comments

Eph. 4:16 Out from whom all the Body, being joined together and being knit together through every joint of the rich supply and through the operation in the measure of each one part, causes the growth of the Body unto the building up of itself in love.

If we cannot pass the test of the Body life, our spirituality is not genuine, for the Body life is the greatest test of our spirituality, and we as members of the Body need to live in the Body and keep every principle of the Body. As those living in the church age, we need […]

The Cross Leads us to the Body and the Cross Operates in the Sphere of the Body

1 Cor. 12:27 Now you are the Body of Christ, and members individually.

The cross and the experience of the cross is not an end in itself; the cross leads us to the Body of Christ, the cross operates in the sphere of the Body, and in the Body of Christ we cannot go on without the cross. The cross of Christ and the experience of the cross […]

Living a Life under God’s Blessing and Eliminating any Barriers that would Hinder it

September 12, 2017 by aGodMan 10 Comments

The normal life of a Christian is a life of blessing, and the normal work of a Christian is a work of blessing.

As believers in Christ, we need to treasure God’s blessing; our normal Christian life should be a life of blessing and our Christian work should be a work of blessing, enjoying God’s blessing and being under God’s blessing. Our God is not only the One who created us, redeemed us, and came into us to […]

As the I AM, Christ is Everything to us for our Experience and Enjoyment Every Day

September 8, 2017 by aGodMan 19 Comments

John 8:12 ...Jesus spoke to them, saying, I am the light of the world; he who follows Me shall by no means walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

The name of the Lord Jesus, who is Jehovah, is the I am; as the I am, Christ is everything to us for our experience and enjoyment, for His being I AM means “I am whatever you need”. When God appeared to Moses and sent him to deliver His people from Egypt, He said, I […]
