Learning to Grasp the Framework

Greetings, everyone. Let us delve into the Book of Exodus together. We have previously studied Genesis, Deuteronomy, Numbers, and Leviticus. Having examined numerous resources on these books, I believe my approach to Bible study is the most effective. Why do I think so highly of my method? Because I have grasped the author's intended meaning, and only by understanding the author's intent can we be correct.

I believe we should all be filled with joy, for we have truly established a church where God dwells. Divine revelations are continually manifested among us, and God's Word is constantly revealed to us. Through studying Deuteronomy, we have clarified the concepts of curses and blessings. Through studying Numbers, we have made clear that "only those who can fight count." The theme of Leviticus is holiness, and Genesis speaks of faith. So, what is the theme of Exodus? One of my hallmarks in preaching is to first establish a framework for everyone. The theme of Exodus is the army of Jehovah came out of Egypt.

Genesis speaks of faith, and thus we see the faith of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, and Joseph in this book, with their faith continually advancing on different levels. Deuteronomy speaks of blessings and curses: obedience to God's Word brings blessings, while disobedience brings curses. Leviticus speaks of holiness, the holy priests. Numbers speaks of only those who can fight count; those who cannot fight all die in the wilderness.

Why do we need to grasp the theme today? Because without a theme, we will be scattered, unable to accomplish anything. Isn't Numbers about counting? But those who cannot fight do not count! Exodus is about the army of Jehovah coming out of Egypt. The entire Book of Exodus revolves around this statement. We seem to be on the right track, but often feel we are not quite there. So, what does it mean to be on the right track?

Then the cloud covered the tent of meeting, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. Moses could not enter the tent of meeting because the cloud had settled on it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle. (Exodus 40:34-35)

In Exodus, after the Israelites built the tabernacle, the Spirit of God descended, and His glory filled it. Today, whether we are on the right track is seen in whether God's glory is manifested in the church. If we rely on divine revelation each time, and build according to God's instructions, His glory will surely fill the church. This is the army of God. The most important evidence of God's army is God being among us. If God is not among us, what are we doing?

Today, I met two friends, each with their own church. But I do not believe their churches are built according to God's Word. They cannot cast out demons, cannot solve problems, and do not even want to solve problems. There are many such churches, yet they feel they are doing well. Later, I told them, "You are all shortchanging yourselves!" When one is in a church that does not overcome, in an army that does not prevail, that is shortchanging oneself!

Is a church without God still a church? This is a big question. How do we know God is with us? Can singing, preaching, Bible study, and chatting solve problems? This makes me feel deeply! People feel they must be loyal to their church. But Moses built a tabernacle filled with God's glory. If you build a small shed in your home, can that be called a tabernacle? If you carve the Ten Commandments on a few stone tablets, arrange some fruit, and erect a memorial tablet, is that God's tabernacle?

I want everyone to gradually understand that when we build God's army according to His Word, we are a victorious army. When we build God's church according to His army, we are a powerful church. When we build God's church according to His Word, this church is like the tabernacle built by Moses, filled with God's presence and glory! Do you understand?

Before we begin Exodus, let me give an introduction, an overview. This way, everyone will know the outline of the entire Book of Exodus, and it will be easier to study further. The theme of Exodus is: The army of Jehovah God came out of Egypt. Let us go through Chapter 1 to Chapter 40 to see how Moses discusses this theme.

After we finish Exodus, along with the previously studied Genesis to Deuteronomy, we will have completed the most foundational books of the Gospel, the five books of Moses. In the New Testament, from Matthew to Revelation, we have almost finished studying. We have also completed Paul's epistles and the prophetic books of Daniel and Isaiah.

How Did the Army of Jehovah Come Out of Egypt?

Exodus is very important because it speaks of the army of Jehovah coming out of Egypt. How did the army of Jehovah come out of Egypt? It was because a group of Israelites were persecuted in Egypt! Among us, if you have not been persecuted or suffered enough, I do not think you would want to come out of Egypt.

If you are living in luxury, with plenty of money, getting everything you want, you would not want to build God's church, because it is too comfortable! Almost all of us have returned after eating our fill of pig swill in the world. It was hard then! Exodus begins with the hardship of the Israelites.

Let me tell you a joke. Sometimes I get angry because I see some brothers and sisters eating not pig swill but pig excrement! The difference is too great! Think about it, pigs can eat pig swill and absorb the nutrients, but pig excrement is inedible! It has no nutrition at all! If people cannot wake up from eating pig swill, they need to eat some pig excrement.

The Israelites suffered greatly in Egypt! It is hard for us to understand this! But we really want to understand: "God, you made a covenant with Abraham, you were so good to Abraham, but you told Abraham, 'Your descendants will be enslaved in Egypt and mistreated there for 430 years.' Why?" The reason is that God wanted to bring His army out of Egypt.

I will not ask God so many whys, because even if God tells you, you will not understand. Because God is that kind of God, we just do as God commands! I think this is God's wonderful work. This work of God transcends our wisdom. People cannot use their own wisdom to measure God's wisdom! This is God's wisdom, and God will do it this way!

Do you still want to control God, to advise God? Do you dare to demand that God do this or not do that? Once you become that kind of Christian, you have eaten the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. I see that you have not only eaten the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, but also gnawed the bark and even eaten the roots. How deeply poisoned you are! We call this kind of thing speculation. Speculation cannot build God's army, cannot build God's glorious church.

We need to know that persecution is a very typical mark on a person. People who are not persecuted or do not suffer will not believe in God. From a young age, I had some understanding of the spiritual realm, but it was hard for me to really find a God to worship properly. I truly believed in God when I was about to jump off a building, feeling that I really could not live on, it was very hard!

I believe our brothers and sisters can understand. You see, I am not stupid, so why am I so unlucky? Actually, being unlucky is good! It can tear down the worldly dreams inside us! Then people begin to not want to live, feeling that life is meaningless. Those who find living very meaningful will find it difficult to enter the army of Jehovah God. I have been speaking for so long to explain why the Israelites were persecuted in Egypt.

One thing is very miraculous: the more the Israelites were persecuted, the more prosperous and stronger they became, filling the land. Although persecuted, the Israelite women were as strong as oxen, working while pregnant, without miscarriages or difficult births, and without any morning sickness. They just worked all day, with no time to feel uncomfortable. Because the Egyptian whip made everything work.

Today, our brothers and sisters should not blame the Egyptians. The Egyptians did a good thing, making the Israelites prosperous and strong, so that they could build God's army. If you do not get whipped in Egypt, you cannot break the worldly logical system. Our brothers and sisters must have eaten a lot of pig swill in this world and experienced a lot of hardship.

God Prepares Vessels to Lead the Israelites Out of Egypt

The Israelites were slaves in Egypt, and it was very hard, so they began to thirst for and call upon God. Among those who are persecuted, God will surely do a miraculous thing, which is to prepare His leaders. At this time, Moses was born. He was supposed to be killed, because all boys were to be killed, but Moses survived. In that era, countless Israelites were killed by the Egyptians. Where could they go to reason? There was nowhere to reason!

Did God know that the Israelites were being mistreated by the Egyptians? God knew! Israelite women gave birth to boys who were killed one after another. In Moses' era, only Moses survived. We need to know that Moses came into this world with a Mingding Destiny. Although we do not know if we came into this world with a Mingding Destiny, we are certain of one thing: only those who come with a Mingding Destiny can survive.

We must not think that this was just the Israelites being disciplined there. In fact, it reflects the state of people living in this world. It is normal for people to be born and die, whether they die in car accidents, drown, die in tsunamis, die in earthquakes, starve to death, die from illness, die from the coronavirus, or die from cancer, the result is death. Our brothers and sisters need to know that God sees these things differently from us. In God's eyes, how one dies is the same.

That is to say, those without a Mingding Destiny die the same way, but those with a Mingding Destiny will live forever. At that time, only Moses survived, because God wanted to prepare Moses as a vessel to lead the Israelites out of Egypt. Moses' mother was an Egyptian princess. He lived gloriously for the first forty years, growing up in the palace like a prince, learning much of Egyptian knowledge, and was very powerful!

When Moses prepared to bring the Israelites out of the hands of the Egyptians, the Pharaoh of Egypt wanted to kill him. Moses realized that his ability was not as good as the Pharaoh's sword. As a result, Moses fled Egypt at the age of 40 and became a shepherd. What I want to say is that God will prepare a vessel to accomplish His plan. We must remember, never put your plan above God's plan, your plan can only lead you to the grave.

Today, we are talking about the theme of Exodus: The army of Jehovah came out of Egypt. God used the Egyptians to persecute the Israelites, and the Israelites began to call upon God, and God prepared a vessel. This vessel was a prince in Egypt. Because the Pharaoh wanted to kill him, he fled from the Pharaoh and ended up in Midian, becoming a shepherd, and he shepherded for forty years.

God's preparation of vessels is beyond our imagination! Moses shepherded for forty years, thinking that he had no more Mingding Destiny, and that was it! Forty years later, Moses was already 80 years old, and God called him. Moses went to Egypt on a mission to bring the Israelites out. God uses Moses to make us understand that God wants to build His army and choose His vessels. So, everyone must not think that they are too old and cannot do it. The vessels that God wants to prepare have nothing to do with age.

Guess what, what did this vessel take to tell the Israelites: Our God of Israel spoke to me? Actually, nothing could be said. Only miracles can speak! God taught Moses to perform several miracles, and when he arrived in Egypt and told the Israelites, it was amazing:

Then the Lord said to him, “What is that in your hand?” “A staff,” he replied. The Lord said, “Throw it on the ground.” Moses threw it on the ground, and it became a snake, and he ran from it. Then the Lord said to him, “Reach out your hand and take it by the tail.” So Moses reached out and took hold of the snake and it turned back into a staff in his hand. (Exodus 4:2-4)

The Lord said to him, “Put your hand inside your cloak.” So Moses put his hand into his cloak, and when he took it out, it was leprous, like snow. “Now,” the Lord said, “put your hand back into your cloak.” So Moses put his hand back into his cloak, and when he took it out, it was restored, like the rest of his flesh. Then the Lord said, “If they do not believe you or pay attention to the first sign, they may believe the second sign. (Exodus 4:6-8)

This is not a joke. Today, brothers and sisters need to know that miracles are crucial in building the church today! Miracles did not start today, miracles have existed since there was God. I think brothers and sisters are young, and it is good to have a heart to serve God, but God's plan for you is definitely not your own plan. We cannot plan anything ourselves! We still have to follow God's plan.

God's plan is: when a person feels they cannot do it, God will use you; when you feel you are very powerful, are a prince of Egypt, and know many languages, it is difficult for God to use you. That is why God used Moses when Moses felt he could not do it. When we feel we are not good enough, God will use us.

The Army of Jehovah Must Destroy the Worldly Logical System

How does God call Moses to build God's army? It is actually to destroy the things inside people. When we destroy the worldly things inside us, we can be used by God. We are all like this! I would not actively destroy the things inside me. I used to think that eating the church's food was like being a kept man. But today I think it is great to be such a pastor, because this is God's army.

Moses spoke to the Pharaoh of Egypt with strength, and this strength was performing miracles. God performed 10 miracles in Egypt through Moses, which severely punished the Egyptians, and many people died. If we calculate based on a family of 5, about 20% died. Many people will say that God is ruthless enough. To be honest, the God I know in the Bible is different from the God many people know. The God many people know is not a God who kills, but the God I know is a God who often kills. So you must fear Him!

Moses brought the Israelites out of Egypt to lead them to the wilderness for a three-day journey to serve God. God told Moses to tell Pharaoh that Israel is my firstborn son, and my firstborn son must come out of Egypt to serve me. Today, our brothers and sisters need to start thinking about it. If you become a Christian and your hope is not to serve God, then forget it.

If you are playing games with God, you will end up in a very miserable situation, which is fatal. God brought the Israelites out to build them into the army of Jehovah God to serve God. If you are a Christian, God calls you and saves you from a very miserable situation, it is not to let you continue to live a good life. If you think it is to let you live a good life, it is impossible, because that is not God's plan.

God wants to call you, bring you out of the land of Egypt, give you freedom, and let you choose to serve God or serve other gods. You can also choose to serve yourself, your husband, wife, business, work, boss, etc. But God's purpose is to let us come out of the land of Egypt to become the army of Jehovah God.

There is a small episode in between, which I thought of after reading the Bible carefully. Because some people often advise me, why not compromise, and give me many examples. But serving God cannot be compromised! So I told them about Moses.

In fact, many people have never read carefully: Moses was taking his wife and children to Egypt to bring the Israelites out of Egypt. God had only asked Moses to circumcise his child, and had not said to offer his child to God, but Moses' wife disagreed. Because Moses was afraid of his wife, he did not do it, so God was going to kill Moses.

If a person wants to become God's army, to become a general or warrior in God's mighty army, he must choose between God and his wife. If you choose to obey your wife and disobey God, then God will kill you! Do you think it is a matter of life and death? This is dealt with according to military law, not civil law. In the army, violating military regulations is judged by a military court, not a civil court.

God's purpose is immediately revealed! God wanted Moses to return to Egypt to bring the Israelites out, to make Moses become God's army, the commander of the Israelites. If you are afraid of everything before and after, would that not be troublesome? God wanted to kill Moses not according to what ordinary people understand, but according to the rules of the army. These Israelites were trained like demons in Egypt and after leaving Egypt, because God wanted to train God's army. As a result, when they left Egypt, God brought the Israelites out with a mighty arm.

Today, I will give a brief explanation of Exodus. Next week, we will start studying chapter by chapter. Today's theme is "The army of Jehovah came out of Egypt." This explains many phenomena that people do not understand and find strange. Why go down to Egypt? Why be enslaved in Egypt for 430 years? Why suffer under the Egyptians? It is all because God wants to train His army. Everyone must know that army training is not playing video games there, it is not a joke.

When the Kuomintang was defeated and retreated to Taiwan, Chiang Kai-shek summarized it in one sentence: Mao Zedong is good at training the army. The Kuomintang failed because it did not train the army properly. From then on, Chiang Kai-shek began to train the Taiwanese army like a demon. He learned this from Mao Zedong, and he admired Mao Zedong alone in his life.

God's army is not about eating and drinking well! If you want to eat and drink well, it is better to be a puppet soldier or traitor in Manchukuo. Those who are greedy for life and afraid of death, and cater to the flesh, cannot be God's army! This is how God implements His plan. God does not care about the death of so many people! If each Egyptian family had five members, and each family lost a firstborn son, then 20% of the Egyptians died, including the Pharaoh's firstborn son.

God killed these people in one night, and He does not care at all! You may have doubts: Is God not a righteous God? Is this not righteous enough? Who told you to hinder God's plan? Do not argue with God, can you argue with God? Look at your small arms and legs, look at your insignificant strength, how can you argue? Do not hinder God's plan!

Today we need to know that those who follow God's plan will prosper, and those who go against God's plan will perish! Therefore, who dares to hinder God from building His army? But how many churches today are built according to God's army? Not to mention according to the army, they cannot even be built according to the guerrillas. They are all a bunch of rabble, can they fight? They are beaten by demons! They have no ability to cast out demons, but they have great ability to be driven out by demons!

So today I will not say nice things to you, because nice things are useless. Recently, I heard a pastor scolding his sheep, scolding them very fiercely, even more fiercely than me! They should be scolded, otherwise how can they grow up? They just received a little blessing and want to live their own good lives, can they live it? Can demons let you live a good life? Demons want to ruin you.

Brothers and sisters, we must prepare ourselves. When we become God's army, we can plunder the enemy. So when the Israelites came out of Egypt, they took the gold and silver treasures of the Egyptians. At that time, every family in Egypt was dying, and every family was holding a funeral. 20% of the people died, how could they line up to the crematorium? Would not they all stink? Every family was filled with crying!

When family members die and people cry, their minds become confused. Money and things are not important anymore, so they stuffed all the money in their homes to the Israelites. That is called plundering the enemy! Everyone must not forget that it is not a loss to be a victorious army, to build a victorious church, and to be a mighty warrior in a victorious army!

But if you are a failed army, such as during the Qing Dynasty, when China failed in the war with the Eight-Nation Alliance, there was the Boxer Indemnity, the signing of the Treaty of Xin Chou, etc., a bunch of crap, both shameful and annoying! What to do? What else can you do if you lose the war? So brothers and sisters must remember one thing, when choosing a church, you must choose a church where God is present! Choose a victorious church! Choose to be a victorious elite soldier in a victorious church! This is God's plan!

Is money a problem? Money is not a problem at all! Among our brothers and sisters today, there are almost none who are not blessed financially! A few days ago, a sister testified that her husband is a scientist who was supposed to receive a bonus, but it was delayed for a long time. She came among us not long ago, and God let him receive it. Because God is in control, it is easy for God to bless people.

The Army of Jehovah Deals with the Flesh

The Israelites had no water to drink in the wilderness; this was a training to see if you diligently observe and follow God's word. If a person lives only to live, to drink water, eat, pee, poop, sleep, then they cannot be an army of Jehovah God! Without water to drink, people cannot endure it. Actually, not having water to drink is God's training; it's okay for us to be trained by God!

Brothers and sisters must be able to endure training! Commonly known as "enduring hardship"! In the army, you must be able to endure training. If others can walk ten kilometers, we can also walk ten kilometers! If others can carry ten kilograms, twenty kilograms, we can also carry ten kilograms, twenty kilograms! Training is: if others can get up, we can also get up! So everyone must know that God's plan is to build His army. It's normal to have some trials, tests, and training, to practice on the training ground and endure some hardship! Why? Because on the battlefield, we can trample on the devil and the enemy.

After the Israelites entered the wilderness, God established many rules for them to keep festivals to Jehovah God. When these festivals arrived, all work stopped, shopping malls did not open, factories did not operate, and everyone stopped to be close to God and read God's word. The army of Jehovah God is built on the rock of Jesus Christ, and the rock is the truth of God. To be an elite soldier in the army of Jehovah God, one cannot be ignorant; ignorant people have no way to win battles.

Learning started from the time of Moses. From that time on, the Israelites began to read God's word, observe various festivals in the wilderness, and be trained in the wilderness. What did they eat and drink in the wilderness? They ate manna in the wilderness. People don't know that with God, there is food; with God, there is bread; with God, there is money; with God, there is everything! Many people don't know this and always think that eating is more important than God! Work is more important than God! Everything is more important than God! Thinking that God is invisible and intangible is foolish!

The Israelites spent forty years in the wilderness without planting or harvesting, yet they lacked nothing because they relied on God! I will not tell you about the events that the Israelites experienced after leaving Egypt according to the chapters, because we will study the scriptures chapter by chapter later. The first battle the Israelites fought in the wilderness was against the Amalekites.

The Amalekites were descendants of Esau, Jacob's brother. Two brothers fighting, one spiritual and one carnal. The Amalekites are representatives of the flesh, and if the Israelites want to become the army of Jehovah, they must first fight a battle with the flesh. In a battle with the carnal, the carnal will definitely persecute the spiritual, and the spiritual will also persecute the carnal. The two cannot be reconciled.

Therefore, to become the army of Jehovah, the first thing to deal with is Esau's logical system. Today's Christians are full of Esau's logical system. This is cursed! What I just talked about are some basic spiritual principles that our church diligently observes and follows.

The Army of Jehovah Must Implement According to God's Word

After the Israelites fought with the Amalekites, they arrived at Mount Sinai, and then Moses began to train his leaders, establishing commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds, and God promulgated His law on Mount Sinai. The Ten Commandments were promulgated on Mount Sinai. To be God's army, the most important thing is to diligently observe and follow God's statutes, ordinances, and commandments, and the greatest commandment is to love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength!

So I preached a sermon called "God is a Jealous God." A jealous God is: those who hate me, I will punish their children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation. Many people say, I want to cut off the curses from my ancestors. Cut what? No need to cut! Love God well and trust God well! Many people don't know how to love God? But if you clearly know how to love money, then use that energy to love God.

We think that cursing three to four generations is very powerful, but how can it be more powerful than loving God! God says that those who love me and keep my commandments, I will show them love to a thousand generations! Which do you want? In God's army, either love God or hate God! Hating God means that even if you cut off all the curses, you can still reconnect them! Cut and reconnect, reconnect and cut, endlessly.

Not only will the curses of your ancestors for three to four generations be attached to you, but also your own curses. Your own curses alone are enough for you to handle. The key is whether you want to be God's army or not. So love God! This is the Ten Commandments. Everyone should gradually understand that building God's army is about these things.

Another most important thing is to build God's sanctuary, to build God's tabernacle. Moses went up the mountain to receive instructions on how to build God's tabernacle. Maybe you will ask, can the tabernacle fight battles? Don't be mistaken, only by building the tabernacle correctly can you be victorious in the spiritual realm. In the tabernacle, there is the Holy Place, the Most Holy Place, the altar, the lampstand, and so on, all made according to the heavenly pattern.

Heaven is the spiritual realm. Some people talk about the fourth dimension; how do they know about the fourth dimension? Who knows how many dimensions there are? All of these are called the spiritual world. If the army of Jehovah God does not win battles in the spiritual world, it is impossible to win battles on earth. So we must build the tabernacle according to the heavenly pattern.

Building that tabernacle was very complicated, with many purple and scarlet tassels, sealskins, and a lot of other things. Where could sealskins be found in the wilderness? Can walrus skin be used? They both have the word "sea," but walruses and seals are very different. Can seal skin be used? If there is seal skin, let's just use it for now! Is that okay? No, God requires sealskins.

Today, we don't even know why sealskins must be used? We don't need to ask why it's sealskins and not sea lions, seals, or walruses? No need to explain so much, no need to study so much. God's tabernacle is not based on biology; God's tabernacle is based on the heavenly pattern. If God says it's sealskins, then it's sealskins. God says how to build it, then build it that way!

I believe that when Moses was building the tabernacle, if he needed 50 pegs, he would not say, why 50? I have 45 here, let's just forget about the other 5! No! Let me take the baptism of brothers and sisters as an example. Originally, Jesus went to the Jordan River to ask John the Baptist to baptize him. It was a long way from Jerusalem to the Jordan River, taking three days. It was even further from Galilee to the Jordan River.

Today, when churches baptize, they initially look for a river, sea, or ocean to baptize in, then they changed to a big vat, and then to a basin, and then the basin became a bowl, just to save trouble. If you build a church and save here and save there, in the end, you will save God's glory, and that cannot be victorious! Jesus did not use a small bottle and a twig to sprinkle water for baptism; that was done by Guanyin Bodhisattva.

I am surprised that using this way of cutting corners, bridges collapse when built, buildings collapse when built, airplanes fall down, and may not even be able to fly. If you make a car like a tin can, and a bird flies over and hits a hole in the roof, can you drive it? So building a church cannot be done by cutting corners! God says how to do it, then do it that way!

God said how to light the lamp, and Moses did it accordingly. Moses never asked why, and we shouldn't ask so many whys! When I first started in management, there was a young employee who had just come out of school and didn't understand anything. His supervisor came to me and told me that this person was not doing things according to the requirements. I called him over and asked him, and he asked me why he had to do things according to the requirements. I was so angry that I almost fainted.

I told him: following the requirements is your job! Even if I explain it to you, you wouldn't understand with your level! There is no why, just do it! So, doing it accordingly is crucial! Why does the Book of Exodus say everything so specifically? Because when these specific things are done, God's glory fills them.

Being a Victorious Elite Soldier in God's Army

Today I met two friends, one of whom had a tumor on his neck. I am very moved! The church he faithfully followed could not heal his illness. But because he is my friend, I am willing to pray for him every day from now on. Actually, it is not difficult to be healed of this disease at all.

Why would a person faithfully offer sacrifices on an altar where God is not present? Why would they faithfully serve in a church where God is not present? Why would they faithfully be a soldier in an army that does not fight? That is not an army at all! Not even a guerrilla force! Even a guerrilla force can cause some damage to the Japanese devils.

Today's Christians lack the concept of an army. If a person is in an army that does not win, then they are really shortchanging themselves, but they must still be faithful. Being faithful to God is important! Can we be strong? Be determined to be a mighty warrior in God's army! Serve God in God's glory! Start attacking the devil and the enemy in a glorious church, in a victorious army.

Some people say to me, you are so great? I said I am not great, but my God must be great! I wish all churches were a victorious army, and I wish all churches knew the truth revealed in the Book of Exodus. God wants His army to come out of Egypt.

How many churches are still in the land of Egypt today? Still in the house of slavery in Egypt? Don't shortchange yourself anymore. If you are not a victorious elite soldier, a mighty warrior in God's army, then you are shortchanging yourself! You must be trained in a victorious army. As long as people are willing, we will train them.

You will find that sometimes I am unwilling to say too deeply, because after I finish speaking, you will be hurt, and I will be hurt. But have you read God's word? After reading it, has God's Spirit moved you? Has it rebuked you? You have come among us and started to see God's blessings because there is a group of people here who are willing to be elite soldiers in Jesus Christ's mighty army, fighting and winning in the spiritual world.

Today I often promote offerings, I just want people to know that only those who offer willingly are pleasing to God. It's not that God needs money, nor do I need this money. I don't need it at all, because God will surely provide for me, just like the Israelites in the wilderness for 40 years, lacking nothing to eat, lacking nothing to wear, lacking nothing. Where God is present, nothing is lacking.

Summary

If you are among us and have not seen blessings, I will tell you a very simple reason, which is not being victorious! How to be victorious? First, we must tear down the worldly logical system within us; second, we must begin to deal with our own flesh; third, we must begin to implement according to God's word. These words are deep and difficult! God's word is abundant, but it is systematic.

I often have a deep expectation that God's glory will never leave us. Here there is always God's altar, and the fire on the altar will never be extinguished; here there is God's lampstand, and the lamp on God's lampstand will never be extinguished; here there is God's revelation, and God's revelation will never cease. Because we build God's army according to God's word, and the most core part of this army is: God's presence, God's tabernacle, God's altar, God's sanctuary.

In God's sanctuary is stored the Ark of the Covenant, which is God's covenant with us. Inside the Ark of the Covenant are the two stone tablets and the manna that the Israelites ate in the wilderness. The two stone tablets represent the covenant we have made with God. I know that in this generation, God's intention is to build a victorious church.

The victorious church is His temple, the dwelling place of God's Spirit, which is also the place where God rests. The church will rely on God to constantly fight and win, plunder the enemy, and manifest His glory in this generation. The key is whether we build according to God's word. Today we are talking about "The Army of Jehovah Came Out of Egypt," which is an outline of the entire Book of Exodus.

Although I did not divide it into points, my thinking is clear. It is to build according to God's word. Brothers and sisters, in the days to come, when we study the Book of Exodus chapter by chapter, do not forget this theme, and continue to push forward around this theme, to a deeper understanding of God's truth. May God bless everyone!
