How much we need to have a clear sky between us and the Lord! Before we were saved, our spiritual sky was dark, cloudy, and even foggy – we couldn’t see God, we could not see the light, and everything was in darkness. But one day the Lord touched us and we repented, we confessed […]
God needs us not to do great works for Him, but rather He needs us to eat Him and to drink Him
God desires that we would just enjoy Him! We see this clearly in the picture presented at both ends of the Bible: in the beginning, in Genesis, we see a man before the tree of life, and there’s a river that waters all the garden and reaches out to the whole earth! At the end […]
today in the church life we’re taking the lead to be headed up in Christ in all things by growing in the divine life
This morning I was encouraged by this verse in Eph. 1:10 which says, Unto the economy of the fullness of the times, to head up all things in Christ, the things in the heavens and the things on the earth, in Him. God’s desire is to head up all things in Christ. The whole universe, […]

we need to take Christ as our Head in order for the church as the house of God to be the kingdom of God
This morning I realized that there is so much more to Christ than we ever imagined! Our Christ is so much! He came so that we may have life, and may have it abundantly (John 10:10) – so now Christ is our life (Col. 3:4). When we enjoy Christ as our life, we as the […]
We need to know the crystallized significance of the Body of Christ – the church in the One God and Father of All
We need to know the crystallized significance of the Body of Christ, especially that the church is in God the Father (see 1 Thes. 1:1). Also, when Paul speaks about the church in Ephesians 4, he says in verse 6, One God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in […]
