Like Balaam – a Gentile prophet who was brought into a vision – we also need to see the vision of the All-sufficient One and have a divine view of God’s people, having God’s view of things and of His people. This week in our crystallization-study of Numbers we come to Num. 23-24, and the […]
Staying away from Wandering Stars and Following the Living Stars in the Church Life
On the positive side, we need to follow Christ as the Star and also follow the living stars He has put in the churches, and on the negative side, we need to beware of wandering stars. When the Lord was born a star rose up in the heavens, and heathen magi from the east saw […]

The goal of prophesying in the church meetings is the building up of the Body of Christ; we need to live a life of prophesying by being revived every morning and living an overcoming life every day, and prepare to prophesy in the meetings of the church.
