1. Review of Previous Sermons
Blessings and curses run throughout the Bible. It is one thing for us to be blessed, but quite another for us to be a blessing to others. Reviewing previous sermons, we must be freed from religious constraints. What should we do after gaining freedom? To become a blessing to many people. What we need to consider most is whether we can be a blessing to others while we are alive.
I have a friend who, although not a believer, said to me, What you are doing is good. Because I have seen many religions that keep saying, Bless me, bless me, while you are asking for Bless others, bless others. He saw something essential. What should we do after we are blessed, get a job, and become responsible? Not to indulge our carnal desires, but to be people who bless others, to be a blessing to others, which can satisfy our hearts.
Many people come to church after getting sick and are healed, and then return to their original lives, living their original days. I just ask, how do you know that you won't fall back into illness in the future?
It is understandable for people to desire to be rich and blessed. But after being blessed, becoming a blessing to others, that is the meaning of our being blessed. When I return to my hometown, I often sigh at how beautiful it is. I have a desire in my heart to become a blessing to this land that birthed and raised me. And today, I am qualified to be a blessing to this land because I have become a person of God. I have become a blessing to myself and also a blessing to others. When I become a blessing to others, I am more joyful than when I am blessed myself.
Start praying now, pray for the land where the soles of your feet tread. The captives shall be released, and the oppressed shall be set free. This is the blessing.
Three things are very important: wisdom, intelligence, and wit. What is wisdom? Wisdom is seeing the essence of life and death. The Bible says God is wisdom, and wisdom is God. You must see the essence of life to have wisdom. Some people who have died were very arrogant when they were alive. If they had seen the essence of life when they were alive, they would not have been arrogant. Intelligence is seeing the laws of development of things. People like Zhuge Liang, Sun Tzu, and Cao Cao were all intelligent, but they did not see the essence of life. Wit is the flexible application of the laws of development of things.
Today, I would like to lead everyone into the realm of wisdom.
2. Scripture: Genesis 12:1-3
Now the Lord had said to Abram: “Get out of your country, from your family and from your father’s house, to a land that I will show you. I will make you a great nation; I will bless you and make your name great; and you shall be a blessing. I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse him who curses you; and in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.” (Genesis 12:1-3)
3. Prayer
Lord, we thirst for you, to be Abram of this generation. We thirst to be a blessing to all nations and peoples on earth. May you personally speak and let us know that we are Abraham of this generation, a blessing of this generation. Let us know that through faith in Jesus Christ, we have all entered into the blessing of Abraham. Lord, shape us and use us to be a blessing to this generation, to the land where the soles of our feet tread. In the name of the Lord Jesus, Amen!
4. Abram's Philosophy of Life
Abram's philosophy of life. We need to take a closer look at the people around us now. Ah, I really want this, and when I get it, I feel it's meaningless. Abram was very good at business, but later he felt it was meaningless.
What is the essence of living? Is it just living and then dying? Abram saw that people live and then die, and he began to think about the essence of living. Abram's philosophy of life is very simple. Abram began to seek when he didn't know.
God wants people to start seeking Him. It is a tragedy when people do not seek God. How many problems can people solve in their lifetime? We cannot solve the problems of disease and disaster. Natural and man-made disasters cannot be solved! Believing in God and seeing the essence of things can solve them. I believe many people disagree with my view. Abram sought hard to find out what life is all about. I only knew the meaning of life after I believed in the Lord. You want to make your name great, make you a great nation, and God curses those who curse you, how can such a person not live well? You are to be a blessing to all nations and peoples! The most important truths in a person's life are all in these words that God gave to Abram! Do you want to live well? Do you want to be rich? Then you must know this sentence, pushing everyone into Mingding Doctrine is for everyone's blessing.
How can you be blessed? This is very important. Don't think that saying Bless me, bless me will bring blessings. Where is the way? The way is in your willingness to become a blessing to others! How can you not be blessed? God is looking for such people! Some time ago, I was thinking hard about how to preach the gospel? Believe in Jesus and have eternal life, go to heaven is that how it is? Why do some people say that I have been saved and I can go to heaven! God gave me a revelation: No Mingding Doctrine, no blessing! Finding the meaning of living is called Mingding Doctrine, to become a blessing to all nations and peoples. I pray and read the Bible with real seriousness.
How can you live well? Enter into the blessing of Mingding Doctrine, that is the real evangelism! Believing in Jesus to become a blessing to many people, that is the key! We have only one motivation in our pursuit: to become a blessing to all nations and peoples. When I get to heaven, God will say that you have already become a blessing to many people on earth, you are a faithful servant, come and enjoy eternal life in the kingdom of heaven with me. Don't live in selfishness. Is eating well, buying a house, and working the purpose of human life? No! Want to live well? You must become a blessing to others. Whom have you served? Start serving today. You are only being served, your testimony doesn't count!
Without an Abraham's philosophy of life, a Christian philosophy of life, a philosophy of life with Mingding Doctrine, cannot be established, and then you cannot be a true Christian.
The matter about the meaning of our life is what I care about. I don't care too much about what I eat, something simple is enough. Is eating enough the purpose of human life? Is working the purpose of human life? Is buying a house the meaning of human life? Brothers and sisters, let us enter into the blessing of Abraham today, which is to become a blessing to others. If you have not served others today, start participating in service. Brothers and sisters, we must change our inner concepts today and become a blessing to others. A depressed child, through our service, had his illness healed and also found a good job. It is useless if a person lives a meaningless life. Abraham was a person who lived with a philosophy of life, so the blessing God gave him was to be like the stars in the sky and the sand on the seashore.
Become a blessing to others, the God who blesses you will bless him, and whoever curses you, God will curse her. Whoever curses me today, God will curse him. Becoming a blessing to others is the key to you and me living a good life. What is a blessing? We Chinese like to do one thing, that is, during the New Year, everyone likes to say to others, Happy New Year, Congratulations and get rich. Is this a blessing? Blessing is very real. In the Bible, in Deuteronomy:
The Lord will establish you as a holy people to Himself, just as He has sworn to you, if you keep the commandments of the Lord your God and walk in His ways. Then all peoples of the earth shall see that you are called by the name of the Lord, and they shall be afraid of you. And the Lord will grant you plenty of goods, in the land which He swore to your fathers to give you, in the fruit of your body, in the increase of your livestock, and in the produce of your ground. The Lord will open to you His good treasure, the heavens, to give the rain to your land in its season, and to bless all the work of your hand. You shall lend to many nations, but you shall not borrow. And the Lord will make you the head and not the tail; you shall be above only, and not be beneath, if you heed the commandments of the Lord your God, which I command you today, and are careful to observe them, and if you do not turn aside from any of the words which I command you today, to the right or the left, to go after other gods to serve them. (Deuteronomy 28:9-14)
Real blessings, today we have the ability to bless this generation, and our speed of healing and deliverance has also had a great breakthrough. Many who are wounded in heart and oppressed by demons are healed among us. This is a real blessing. Encourage everyone to take brothers and sisters to listen to the 201 course we developed, to know what the meaning of living is.
What I give you is the word of God, the truth of the Bible, which makes people live in freedom. Seeing through life and death and gaining freedom, is this not a blessing? Those who were previously depressed are no longer depressed, those who were worried are no longer worried. The blessing we speak of is a real blessing, and we must become a blessing to this land. I saw a Singapore news report before, there is an opposition party, a permanent opposition party, what are these people doing? They like to create unrest, protests, and demonstrations. What are we doing? We are starting to make those who are depressed and unhappy in society become joyful through the word of God and the teaching of truth. We are permanent supporters of the government, and turmoil can never solve problems. We Christians pursue God's justice, become a stabilizing factor in society, constantly climb spiritual heights, and become a blessing to others. If our views are the same as God's views, we will not care much about these, and we will not care about these momentary and light afflictions.
Think about what you did last week and last month? Shouting a slogan is useless, we must really do it, really become a blessing of this era. Brothers and sisters among us who have not yet participated in the healing and deliverance prayer ministry, I encourage everyone to participate as soon as possible. Just like Brother Joshua who gave testimony just now, his nine-year-old son prayed for him, and he was healed. Trampling on the devil enemy in the spiritual world, as soon as you start praying, you will defeat the devil, and the devil will be afraid when he sees you.
