To Labor on Christ is to Exercise our Spirit in our daily life to Experience Christ

December 29, 2021 by aGodMan Leave a Comment

If we do not labor on Christ and live by Christ, we will have nothing of Christ in our hand. Even if we understand how to exercise our spirit, we may have the technique but not the material. When we come to the meeting, our spirit may be positive, active, living, on the alert, and ready to exercise, but we may be poor and empty-handed, not having anything of Christ to minister. If this is so, we are worshipping in spirit but not in reality; we are in Jerusalem, but we do not have a surplus in our hands. Therefore, the church life depends on our daily exercise of the spirit and also on our daily walk in Christ. We have to labor on Christ, walk in Christ, live by Christ, and have many experiences of Christ. Then we will be rich in Christ and with Christ. When we come to the meeting, we will know how to exercise our spirit, and we will have much surplus of Christ. Serving in the Meetings and in the Gospel, Chapter 1, by Witness Lee

Be Patterns of the Flock, Contact God in Prayer, and Care for the Feeling of the Body

December 22, 2021 by aGodMan Leave a Comment

If you pray and fellowship, you honor the Lord, and you will also have the assurance that it is the Lord who is leading you. Then after you move to a certain place, you will have the assurance that the Lord sent you there, and you will never regret your move, no matter what the outward situation may be. You will be so assured that your being there is the Lord's will and leading that you will be ready to die there. You will not only have the assurance; you will also be strengthened and endued with authority. You will be able to say, “Affliction and persecution, stay away. We have been sent here by the Lord of heaven and earth.” Because you have been sent by the Lord, not by any man, you will have the authority to pray. I hope you can all see the difference between being sent by the Lord and being sent by man. The Spirit and the Body, Chapter 1, by Witness Lee
