We are now in the Crystallization Study of the Minor Prophets, and this morning I was impressed with the fact that Christ is the centrality and universality in God’s economy and in His move to accomplish His economy. If you read the Minor Prophets (from Hosea to Malachi) you may be impressed with a lot […]
we are being made one in the reality of the Father’s sanctifying word
July 13, 2012 by 2 Comments
In the Lord’s prayer in John 17 we see that there are three levels of oneness, or three increasingly important ways for us as believers in Christ to be one. Firstly, we are one in the Father’s name and by the Father’s divine life (John 17:6-13). Secondly, we are one in the reality of the […]
entering into our private room and praying to the Father who is in secret
June 16, 2012 by 3 Comments
The Lord Jesus set a good pattern before us – He as the first God-man prayed to the Father much time in secret! Even after He fed the crowds by making a miracle, He went away and went up to the mountain to pray, and He spent the whole night in prayer alone with the […]

In psalm after psalm we see how God’s intention is clearly to recover the earth and bring it under His rule – read how Psalms 2-22 and Psalms 24-89 show us that Christ will possess the earth and will rule through the church over the whole earth. The subject of the Psalms can be incapsulated […]

When we read Psalm 119 carefully we realize how much the psalmist loved the word of God, the law, the precepts, the ordinances, and the commandments. Yes, on the one hand, the law of God / the word of God exposes us of our sin and preserves us unto Christ, but on the other hand, […]
