For us to enter into a new revival, we need to see a vision of God’s eternal economy and the high peak of the divine revelation, we need to rise up to pray that God would give us a new revival, and we need to live the life of a God-man for the corporate expression of God on the earth.
Lord Jesus, we open to You. Grant us to have a vision of God’s eternal economy, the mystery hidden deep in God’s heart for generations. Oh Lord, may we see why did God create all things, what is His purpose in doing all things, and what is the goal in His dealing with us, especially through sufferings. May we realise that God became man so that man may become God in life and in nature but not in the Godhead for God to obtain a corporate expression of Himself! Amen!
On His side, God went through a process – God became man through incarnation so that He may participate in man’s humanity. On our side, we are now going through a process – we become God in life and nature through transformation by participating in God’s divinity. Wow!
This is the essence of what the Bible is talking about. God’s original intention was to dispense Himself into man as life so that man would express God in His image and represent Him with His dominion.
But man fell, so God had to come and become a man to open the way for man to enter into God.
Even as believers in Christ, however, we who are regenerated by God with His life and nature, we still are not fully transformed. Worse still, many times we are in darkness, we are degraded, and we are in desolation.
Especially in the world today with all its enticing things, and especially as the whole trend of Christianity is toward degradation, we are all affected by this.
In each one of us there is an aspiration to be revived. We desire to be refreshed, restored, renewed, and revived. There is a prayer in us that the Lord would revive us.
According to the divine revelation in God’s word, God wants to gain a new revival not in an outward way for all men to see but inwardly, within the core of man’s being spreading to man’s living and work.
First, we need to see the vision of God’s economy and arrive at the highest peak of the divine revelation given to us by God – the revelation of the eternal economy of God.
When we see a vision of God’s economy and realise that God’s only goal in time is to dispense Himself into us, we will simply open to Him, give ourselves to Him, and allow Him to dispense Himself into our being for the fulfilment of His purpose. Amen!
See the Central Revelation of God and of the Lord’s Recovery and Rise up to Pray that God would Give us a New Revival!
God’s economy is so vast and immense, and there is more than one way to define what the eternal economy of God is.
The first way we can enter into a new revival is by arriving at the highest peak of the divine revelation, the eternal economy of God.
The economy of God is the central revelation of God and of the Lord’s recovery.
This central revelation is God becoming the flesh (John 1:1, 14), the flesh becoming the life-giving Spirit (1 Cor. 15:45b), and the life-giving Spirit becoming the sevenfold intensified Spirit (Rev. 1:4; 3:1; 4:5; 5:6) to build up the church (Matt. 16:18) that becomes the Body of Christ (Eph. 4:15-16) and that consummates the New Jerusalem (Rev. 21:2, 9; 22:17a; cf. Gen. 2:22; John 19:34). Hallelujah!
If we unpack this long sentence, we are filled with revelation, we are emboldened and encouraged, and we are infused with more of what God is!
The central revelation and the Lord’s recovery is simply God becoming the flesh, the flesh becoming the life-giving Spirit, and the life-giving Spirit becoming the sevenfold intensified Spirit to build up the church, becoming the Body of Christ that consummates the New Jerusalem.
Why did God became man? Why did God in the flesh become the Spirit? Why did Christ produce the churches? Why are the churches the Body of Christ? It is all for God’s economy, for God’s eternal purpose.
God became a man through incarnation; the Word became flesh and tabernacled among us, full of grace and reality, and the disciples beheld His glory, glory as of the Only begotten from the Father. Amen!
Then, as a man in the flesh, Christ became a life-giving Spirit. The first man, Adam, was a man in the flesh who fell, but the last Adam became a life-giving Spirit. Hallelujah!
Even more, as seen in Revelation 1-5, the one Spirit of God has been intensified sevenfold to become the seven Spirits of God, the sevenfold intensified Spirit.
This is so that He may build up the churches, produce the overcomers, and bring forth the New Jerusalem!
Now, as a result of the process God went through to become the life-giving Spirit and the sevenfold intensified Spirit, we who believe into Him are regenerated and become the church.
We are the church as the Body of Christ, the organism of Christ to express Him corporately. We now live the church life as the Body of Christ, and we live Christ for the expression of Christ. Praise the Lord!
We are opening to the Lord as the sevenfold intensified Spirit to produce us as His overcomers who build up the church, consummating the New Jerusalem!
We even pray that the Lord would intensify us and intensify His organic salvation in us for His Body. amen!
Eventually, God and man will become one entity, and that one entity is the mingling of divinity with humanity, which will consummate in the New Jerusalem as the conclusion of the entire Bible (Rev. 21:3, 22, 2, 9; cf. Lev. 2:4-5; Psa. 92:10).
God in Christ as the Spirit mingles Himself with us little by little, day by day, and produces us to be the members of the Body of Christ for the corporate expression of Christ.
We are being mingled with Christ in a gradual way, and eventually, we will become the New Jerusalem, the ultimate mingling of God and man. Hallelujah!
When we see this central revelation of God, when we see a vision of the eternal economy of God, we will not only be impressed and enlightened, but there is a prayer rising up in us.
As we see the central revelation of God and the Lord’s recovery, we will rise up to pray that God would give us a new revival! Amen, we want a new revival, something that will refresh and renew us and will also satisfy God.
We pray that the Lord will give us a new revival that has never been recorded in history!
The highest peak of the divine revelation is not merely for us to know it, recite it, and memorise it; we need to live a particular kind of life according to the highest peak of the divine revelation.
First, we see the vision, and then this vision affects our daily living.
May we all see that the Lord’s recovery, what He is doing today on earth, is God becoming the flesh, the flesh becoming the life-giving Spirit, and the life-giving Spirit becoming the sevenfold intensified Spirit to build up the church that becomes the Body of Christ and that consummates the New Jerusalem.
May we rise up to pray that the Lord would give us a new revival that will end this age, based on the vision He has shown us!
Lord Jesus, unveil us to see what is the central revelation of God and of the Lord’s recovery. May we see a clear and controlling vision of God’s eternal economy, and may this vision govern and direct our heart. Praise the Lord for God becoming the flesh, the flesh becoming the life-giving Spirit, and the life-giving Spirit becoming the sevenfold intensified Spirit! Hallelujah, we believers in Christ receive and enjoy God in Christ as the Spirit, even as the sevenfold intensified Spirit for us to be produced and built up as the church that becomes the Body of Christ and that consummates the New Jerusalem! Hallelujah, God and man will become one entity, and that one entity is the mingling of divinity with humanity! Amen, Lord, mingle Yourself with us more today. We open to You: more mingling today! Mingle Your divinity with our humanity. Gain the church as the Body of Christ today and consummate the New Jerusalem! Yes, Lord, may we see this revelation and may we rise up to pray that God would give us a new revival! Lord, Amen, give us a new revival, even a revival that has never been recorded in history, a revival that will bring You back! Amen!
See the High Peak of the Divine Revelation and Live a God-man Life in the Church Life Today
In the world and even in Christianity today, the more you know, the more you are proud, for much knowledge makes you proud and causes you to feel superior to others who do not have such vast knowledge.
But when it comes to the vision of God’s eternal economy, when we speak of the highest peak of the divine revelation given by God to us, and when we touch the central revelation of God and of the Lord’s recovery, this should not be the case.
The vision and knowledge of the highest peak of the divine revelation should not cause us to be more proud; rather, it should issue in a prayer that God would grant us a new revival and we would live the life of a God-man.
What we see affects our daily living.
For example, when you see the importance and preciousness of a particular electronic device, if you have the vision of what an electronic device can do to you to help you, you will live a certain kind of a way, you will pay the highest price to get it and maintain it, and you will improve your daily living because of it.
This is an imperfect example of how we are affected in our daily living when we see a vision of the eternal economy of God.
Especially as we live the church life with the saints, meeting together, serving together, coordinating together, and doing many things together, our living, work, and being need to be governed by a vision of God’s eternal economy.
We cannot serve and coordinate as before. We cannot serve in ourselves and according to our natural being. We need to have a change.
The Lord called us and assigned us to do something for Him, and now we do everything according to the vision of God’s eternal economy we see in spirit.
We pray that the Lord would grant us a genuine, real revival in His recovery so that we may live in a certain way according to the vision we see.
Seeing the vision of God’s economy will usher us into living the life of a God-man. We simply live according to the vision we see.
If we practice living the life of a God-man, spontaneously a corporate model will be built up, a model living in the economy of God (Psa. 48:2 and footnote 1; Rev. 3:12, 21).
If we truly see a vision of God’s eternal economy and allow this vision to govern us and control us, we will live the life of a God-man, which is the reality of the Body of Christ.
Such a living is not individual but corporate, for there will be a corporate model being built up. This is a model living in the economy of God, and this model will be the greatest revival in the history of the church to bring the Lord back. Hallelujah!
This is not beyond our reach, and this is not only for the more mature and spiritual among us.
We all need to come to the Lord in His word and in the ministry and allow Him to impress us with a clear vision of His eternal economy, the central revelation of God and of the Lord’s recovery.
When we see such a vision, our living will spontaneously follow and issue out.
We will no longer live in the vanity of the mind as those around us. We will not participate with them in the same flood of dissoluteness. We will not remain in any degradation.
Rather, we will pray that God would give us a new revival, a genuine revival, and that Christ would live in us.
If all the churches live in such a way, there will be a model built up on the earth of the God-man living, and this will be a prevailing testimony, even the new revival!
Lord Jesus, may a clear and controlling vision of Your eternal economy direct our heart and burn in us until our spirit is wholly set afire! We open to You, Lord, and we come to You in Your word and in the ministry that opens up the word of God. Grant us a vision of God’s eternal economy, the highest peak of the divine revelation given to us by God. May we see the central revelation of God and of the Lord’s recovery. Amen, Lord, as we see this vision, we pray that You would give us a new revival, even a genuine and ultimate revival that will bring You back! May this vision affect our daily living. May we practice living the life of a God-man, which is the reality of the Body of Christ! Amen, Lord, live in us today. We want to live Christ, express Christ, and allow Christ to be manifested in us. Gain a corporate model of living the life of a God-man on earth today. Amen, Lord, gain a model of living in the economy of God! Gain the greatest revival in the history of the church to bring You back! Amen!
