Learn Christ as the Reality is in Jesus to be Molded into the Pattern of Christ

The desire of God’s heart is that the reality in Jesus would be duplicated in us, the many members of the Body of Christ by the Spirit of reality to become the reality of the Body of Christ for a new revival; we have been put into Christ as the mold, and now we are learning Christ as the reality is in Jesus to live a God-man life.

Lord Jesus, thank You for putting us in Christ so that we may learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus. Amen, Lord, we open to You, and we come to You. Reality is only in You. Reality is in Your living. We come to You in Your word to be infused with You as the pattern of living a God-man life. We want to learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus. Oh Lord, may the living of Christ as seen in the four Gospels be duplicated in us today by the Spirit of reality to become the reality of the Body of Christ! Amen!

This week in our prayerful consideration of how can we enter into a new revival, we come to the topic of the Go-man Living for a New Revival.

The Lord wants to gain a genuine revival that will end this age and bring the Lord back. May we give ourselves to the Lord to just love Him and enjoy Him. He died for us, His life must be our life, and we just need to love Him.

All spiritual experiences start with love in the heart. The Lord gave us a new heart and a new spirit; He gave us a new heart to love Him and a new spirit to contact Him, receive Him, and contain Him.

Thank the Lord for our new heart. Our heart is composed of our mind, emotion, will, and conscience.

Thank the Lord that He gave us a new heart for us to love the Lord and contact Him in love. By means of the new heart and new spirit, we can walk in His statutes and do His will, for we love Him with all of our heart and we contact Him in our spirit.

May we daily be those who love the Lord so that we may have fresh, new, living, spiritual experiences of Christ.

May we daily exercise our spirit to contact the Lord, be in His word, and allow Him to work Himself into us. If we do not love the Lord, it is impossible to receive any kind of spiritual experience.

For us to have the living of a God-man, for us to live the life of a God-man, we need to love the Lord and exercise our spirit.

May we be the crazy lovers of the Lord who enjoy Him, love Him, and contact Him daily, and may we let Christ live in us.

Thank the Lord that we have a spirit of power, of love, and of sobermindedness to be a crazy lover of Jesus. Amen, may we let the Lord live in us and be expressed through us!

Learn Christ as the Reality is in Jesus to be Molded into the Pattern of Christ and Live Christ

The desire of God’s heart is that the reality in Jesus (Eph. 4:21), the actual condition of the God-man living of Jesus as recorded in the four Gospels, would be duplicated in us, the many members of Christ’s Body by the Spirit of reality to become the reality of the Body of Christ, the highest peak of God’s economy, for a new revival (vv. 20-24).

The New Testament shows us that we believers Christ need to live Christ; Paul declared that to us, to live is Christ (Phil. 1:21). Paul also said in Ephesians 4:20 that we have learned Christ.

Christ is our life and He is also an example to us (John 13:15; 1 Pet. 2:21; Rom. 8:29). He told us to learn from Him (Matt. 11:29) according to His example; we learn from Him not by our natural life but by Him as our life.

On the one hand, He is in us as our life; on the other hand, we learn from Him as our pattern.

The Lord Jesus didn’t just come and accomplish redemption and then become the Spirit; rather, He lived a perfect human life on earth and set up the pattern of a God-man by His living and work.

He set up a mold, a model, and the four Gospel clearly show us the mold of the life that can satisfy the desire of God and fulfill His purpose.

The New Testament shows us a unique biography of the Lord Jesus written from four directions. He set up the pattern, He prepared a mold, and we today are learning Christ as the reality is in Jesus.

After Christ set up the pattern revealed in the Gospels, He was crucified on the cross, and then He entered into resurrection; in resurrection, He comes into us to be our life.

When we believe into the Lord Jesus, we are joined to Him organically, and by baptism into Him, we are put into Christ.

As we see in 1 Corinthians 1:30, if is of God that we are in Christ Jesus; we are put into Christ as the mold, and we need to learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus.

We are to be conformed to the image of Christ, the Firstborn among many brothers (Rom. 8:29).

We are conformed to the image of Christ by being molded; we learn the mold just as the dough learns the mold into which it is placed when someone bakes a cake.

Thank the Lord that, by means of baptism, God put us into Christ as our pattern. We were buried into Christ (Rom 6:3; Gal. 3:27), and we are now in Christ to learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus.

We have been brought out of Adam and the old creation; we have put off the old man and have put on the new man. Now Christ is our life and our pattern, and we are learning Christ as the reality is in Jesus.

The Lord Jesus wants us to learn from Him, that is, to learn to live the same kind of life that He lived, for only His life was pleasing to God and satisfied God.

The actual condition of the God-man living of Jesus as recorded in the four Gospels needs to become our reality today.

We are learning Christ not in an outward way but inwardly, subjectively, by enjoying Him. We learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus by being put into Christ and by Christ being put into us.

Christ established the pattern, then He was crucified, and He entered into resurrection, becoming a life-giving Spirit (1 Cor. 15:45).

Now as the Spirit, He comes into us to be our life. On the one hand, He is our life within us, and on the other hand, we are in Him by being baptised into Christ.

We are in Him, He is in us, and we are learning Christ as the reality is in Jesus so that we may live the same kind of life today, the life of a God-man.

May we be those who learn Christ as the realty is in Jesus. Reality is only in Jesus; He is the way, the reality, and the life (John 14:6), and His living is reality.

If we read the four Gospels we see the pattern of the life that God desires, the mold of the life that can satisfy God and fulfilled His purpose.

The Lord Jesus lived a life in which He did everything in God, with God, and for God, God was in His living, and He was one with God.

For us to learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus is to be molded into the pattern of Christ, to be conformed to the image of Christ.

We need to pray for this to happen in us. We need to allow the Lord to live in us, live through us, live by us, and live with us. We need to let the Lord live Himself through us, for He is the solution to all our problems.

When He lives in us, we learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus, and our life will be a repetition of the God-man living seen in the four Gospels.

May we open to the Lord concerning this and be one with him for such a living, for the living of a God-man life is the reality of the Body of Christ, a new revival that will bring the Lord back.

Lord Jesus, we want to be one with You today. We want to live the same kind of life that You lived. Cause us to live a life in which we do everything in God, with God, for God, and in oneness with God. Amen, Lord, we want to do everything in God, with God, and for God. Guide us as the Spirit of reality into having a living where God is our living and we are one with God! Thank You for putting us in Christ so that we may learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus. Hallelujah, we are in Christ and Christ is in us as the life-giving Spirit! Amen, Lord, live in us today. Live Thyself, Lord Jesus, through us! We want to learn from You and follow Your pattern by allowing You to live in us and be expressed through us. May we be molded into the pattern of Christ and be conformed to the image of Christ. Hallelujah, Christ is our pattern, and He lives in us! Praise the Lord, we can live the life of a God-man by learning Christ as the reality is in Jesus! Amen, Lord, live in us today! Reproduce Your human living in our human living today!

We’re Being Perfected by the Lord to be God-men Living by the Divine Life by Denying our natural Life According to the Model of Christ as the First God-man

When people look at the life and living of the Lord Jesus in the Gospels, both unbelievers and believers aspire to have such a life and do such things, even to have such behaviour and react in the same way that He did.

Especially we as believers in Christ have an aspiration to live like the Lord Jesus, and many times we try and miserably fail, for in ourselves we cannot live such a life.

We need to realise that we have been put into Christ as the mold and He has come into us as the life-giving Spirit, and now we learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus.

We are being perfected by the Lord to be God-men, living by the divine life by denying our natural life according to the model of Christ as the first God-man (Matt. 11:29a; 17:5b; 1 Pet. 2:21).

To this we were called, because Christ also suffered on our behalf, leaving us a model so that we may follow in His steps.

We may think that we should imitate Jesus, and many try to do this. But the fact that Christ is our model means that He is an underwriting for us as students to trace and learn to write.

He already lived the life of a God-man, and now we copy Him by being molded into His image. He is the underwriting, and we copy exactly what we see by putting ourselves as a blank piece of paper on top and tracing His living. Amazing analogy!

The more we contact the Lord, read the Bible, fellowship with the Lord and with the saints, and are in the meetings of the church, the more we learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus, and we trace the human life and living of Jesus to copy it in our human life.

The Lord Jesus in His life set up a pattern, as revealed in the four Gospels. Then, He was crucified and resurrected to become the life-giving Spirit so that He might enter into us to be our life (1 Cor. 15:45; Col. 3:4).

Now Christ is our life and we are put into Christ as the mold. We learn from Christ according to His example not by our natural life but by Him as our life in resurrection.

Amen, our Christian life is a life in Christ and a life of Christ in us; our Christian life is the life of Christ lived out in us, allowing Christ to live in us and be expressed through us.

We are in Christ as the mold, and He is in us as our life. We are being perfected to be God-men and live the same kind of life as He did by learning Christ as the reality is in Jesus.

As we live such a life, the Lord has a way to gain the reality of the Body of Christ (1 Cor. 1:30; 2 Cor. 5:17; 12:2a; Col. 1:27; Gal. 2:20; Rom. 8:10), which is a new revival that will end this age and will bring the Lord back.

On the one hand, we have learned Christ, for we were placed into Christ as the mold. On the other hand, we are still learning Christ.

May we see what our Christian life is, and may the Lord save us from trying to cultivate an outward imitation of Christ, which leads at best to the improvement of the self and at worst to giving up trying to live the Christian life, for it ends in failure.

We can’t copy Christ in ourselves, by our natural life, or according to our effort. It is a mistake to think that we can imitate Christ by the exercise our natural life.

May we let the Lord perfect us to be God-men, those who live the divine life by denying their natural life according to the model of Christ as the first God-man.

He lived a life of denying Himself and taking God as His life; we live the same kind of life today. May we pray this to the Lord.

May we read the Word and pray it to Him so that He may work it in us. May we be those who cooperate wth Him in prayer and by means of prayer, especially as we fail and realise that we can’t do it.

Lord Jesus, perfect us to be God-men today, those who live a God-man life. Amen, Lord, we want to live the divine life by denying our natural life according to Your model as the first God-man. Thank You for living the life of a God-man to set up a model! Thank You for calling us to come and follow You and learn from You. We take Your life and living as a pattern today. May we learn from You to live the divine life by denying our natural life so that Christ may live in us. Amen, Lord, we do not want to live by our natural life but by You as our life in resurrection! May our Christian life be a life of Christ, the living of Christ in us. Live in us today, Lord Jesus! We want to learn Christ as the reality is in Jesus so that we may live the life of a God-man for the reality of the Body of Christ! Amen, Lord, we love You and we come to You in Your word! Infuse us with Your pattern. Live in us the same kind of life that You lived while on the earth! Perfect us to live as God-men, a life that expresses God!
