As believers in Christ who see something of what is on the Lord’s heart, we need to be very pure and aggressive for the Lord and His interest; we need to allow our ability and capacity to go through death and resurrection to be useful to the Lord for His move and work. Nehemiah […]
We need to be Pure in Heart to See God, be Transformed and be Useful to Him in Service
We need to be pure in heart, having the single goal of accomplishing God’s will for His glory, so that we may see God, that is, gain God and receive God to be constituted with God and be one with God. As those in the process of being purified by the Lord and cooperating […]
Beware of Setting up a Divisive Center of Worship after being Successful in Gaining Christ
The story of the apostasy of Dan in Judg. 17-18 is a warning to us all today, for it is common in Christianity for someone to set up a different center of worship under the guise of the worship of God, therefore not abiding by God’s ordination concerning the unique place of worship to God. […]
It is time to rise up and say, Lord Jesus, Step On Me! Use me! (2011 winter school of truth)
We need to rise up and say: “Lord, step on me!” This is our opportunity! We should go, bear fruit and speak about the Lord. What are we waiting for? We’re here to express God! Jesus wants our consecration so we have to be determined and exercise our spirit. The church needs our function. Every day we have a new beginning, each sunrise brings new opportunities and new possibilities. Sometimes we just need little turn to our spirit. We are different than the people in the world – we have a better life because Christ is our life! We have to trust God because at every step the Midianites want to attack us – they’re waiting all the time and everywhere to destroy what God made in us, and to destroy the place which Lord gained in us. [sharing by a sister from Poland from her impression in the 2011 Winter School of Truth]
Lord, make me a stepping stone for Your return! Lord, I’m willing, use me in 2012!
About the new year, 2012… Lord, make me that someone who rises up and allows You to use me as a stepping stone for Your move! O, Lord, I am willing – use me! Do NOT pass me by! I don’t want to miss this opportunity! Lord, I want to count the cost and allow You to deal and break through anything that still resists You in me. Lord, what is holding me back? What idols are still there in my heart? Lord, break through in anything that holds You back in me – I want to pay the price to be filled within and clothed without with the Spirit!

a trainee’s testimony – learning to put myself aside and enjoy the Lord with the saints!
In my individual dealing with my ‘self’ I have been learning to put myself aside, especially when we go out on the campus to preach the gospel or to nourish our contacts. Many times I have been busy with my own things, I felt tired, and I didn’t even have any willingness to go out; however, the Lord has been reminding me to seek first His Kingdom (Matt. 6:33) and put Him first in any kinds of situation. I must exercise my will to choose what the Lord wants and rather forget about myself, my own feelings, and my own needs. It’s a privilege to be out on the campus and speak to people and take care of those that have already been captured by the Lord! It’s wonderful to be with the saints and the students. Plus I loved going to Uxbridge where sister Gloria bakes the most delicious cakes for every Friday night meeting!
