Jacob’s Dream at Bethel was a Dream of God’s Goal, the Dream of the House of God

In our Holy Word for Morning Revival, we are now getting into a Crystallization-Study of Genesis (the third part), focusing mainly on the lives of Jacob and Joseph. Jacob was chosen by God even from his mother’s womb, but even though he knew this, he still struggled, cheated, and did things to steal the birthright […]

Living in the Principle of the Nazarite by Overcoming Worldly Enjoyment and Rebellion

We are not our own: we belong to God, He has bought us with the high price of the death of His Son, and now it is an honor and a privilege for us to consecrate ourselves to the Lord to live to Him and no longer to ourselves (2 Cor. 5:15). All those who […]

The church is the most precious thing in God’s eyes, and Christ gave Himself up for the church to redeem her and bring her to Himself. We need to see a vision of the preciousness, importance, and practicality of the church: the church is very important to God, and the church is both universal and […]

God’s Purpose for the Church is to Head up All Things in Christ Through the Church

The church as the mystery hidden in God’s heart is the most precious thing to Him.
