Hallelujah for Christ as the Unique Replacement of everything else with Himself in God’s economy! In Isaiah, we see another full type of Christ in the person of Eliakim who is set by God to replace Shebna, to be the steward in the house of the king. But it’s not just that: in only 3 […]
practical points: no idol worship, flee fornication, stay away from division, and the exposing of our ambition!
This week I was considering some practical points that some brothers shared with us in the crystallization study of Isaiah(1), some points that are so exposing and yet so true. We need to enjoy the Lord every day and drink Him in as the living water by calling on His name. We also need to have […]
God fires us and replaces us with Christ organically, we are being re-constituted with Christ daily!
I love this verse in Galatians 2:20, which says, I am crucified with Christ, and it is no longer I who lives, but it is Christ who lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live in faith, the faith of the Son of God, who loved me and gave […]

Yet God’s way to accomplish His purpose of having an expression on the […]
The processed and consummated Triune God as the flowing living water is our practical salvation

take the rod (apply the death of Christ to your situation) and speak to the rock(speak to Christ in faith)!
This week we’re getting into the message entitled, Drawing Water with Rejoicing from the Springs of Salvation – in the Crystallization-study of Isaiah(1). Today I was reminded of the fact that most of the problems and murmurings in the church life are due to the shortage of the Spirit of life. The people of Israel […]
only by coming to God as the fountain of living waters can we be satisfied fully and become His expression today!
In Isaiah and in Jeremiah we see God dealing with His people, and many times we have the impression that “God wants to punish Israel” – all those judgements, wars, etc. But there is a verse in Jeremiah that sheds some fresh light on what God desires from His people, how does He want to […]
