Adhering to and Obeying God's Word Concerning Blessings and Curses

We will delve into the second part of attaining Mingding Destiny to become a blessing. If you briefly recall my previous discourse on shepherding the church or last week's discussion on attaining Mingding Destiny to become a blessing, you will notice that both revolve around one matter: adhering to and obeying God's Word or not adhering to and obeying God's Word.

It is a great tragedy in life if a person does not know that blessings come from God and calamities also come from God! A great tragedy in life is not knowing; if you do not know, it will be troublesome. Therefore, you must be aware of everything you do. If you are a Christian and do not know about blessings and curses, what kind of Christian will you be? In my heart, I am firmly convinced that a Christian should be a resounding Christian! A lawyer should be a resounding lawyer! An engineer should be a resounding engineer! If one is an accountant, be a resounding accountant! If one is a salesperson, be a resounding salesperson!

But where does the problem lie? When being a Christian, do you still have the thought of being a resounding Christian? Where does this resounding Christian come from? It comes from adhering to and obeying God's Word. Why do many people not adhere to and obey? Because, simply put, they do not quite believe in God's Word. I once gave an example: I said that if you come here at 3:30 a.m. tomorrow, I will give you $1,000. As a result, the next morning, I waited here, but no one came. Why? Because they did not believe I would give them $1,000. If someone did come, and I really gave them $1,000, the next day, everyone would come and say, Really? You really gave it! Everyone would regret it.

Why? Actually, we know God has given us many promises in the Bible. There are many graces and blessings; these blessings come from God, and calamities also come from God. Adhering to and obeying God's Word will bring blessings. What if one does not adhere to and obey? If you are a Christian, you would be in a dire situation, receiving curses.

Blessings and Curses Are Important Lessons in Life

Blessings and curses are a major theme in life. I wrote a book called Blessings and Curses, in two volumes, both quite thick. What are these two volumes about? They are about Deuteronomy. I wrote more than 30 chapters, not copying from books but interpreting Deuteronomy. After interpreting it, I named it Blessings and Curses. The two volumes sold quite well. Perhaps I advertised a bit, but then again, if one truly reads this carefully, I tell you, you will truly be blessed.

Rarely does anyone examine the Bible as I do. Why? Because I want to be a resounding Christian. Whatever God says, that is what we believe. For example, many cancer patients dislike my speaking because I believe cancer is a curse. I do not believe cancer is a blessing in disguise. A curse is a curse, and a blessing is a blessing. What is a blessing in disguise? If you hear this and it applies to you, I am sorry, please do not blame me; I am only saying what God said.

Recently, as we were praying, I saw one of our leaders ministering there. I sat next to her and listened for a while, and I was quite moved. I heard the person on the other end of the phone say, In my church, I am very eager to hear God's Word, but there is none! Coming here, I have finally found spiritual food! What does that church have? I tell you, in Singapore's churches, direct selling is rampant, or you might say multi-level marketing, anyway, that kind of thing. Do not blame me for not telling you; if you are a pastor involved in direct selling, be careful because those things do not come from God.

Living to Be a Blessing to Others

Someone said that their knee had been hurting for many years, but it got better after praying with us; others had stomachaches and got better after praying with us. If you get better, notify me so I can receive some encouragement! I am very happy to see many people healed; it is better than eating a plate of braised pork! Why? Because so many people are healed through me; how can I not be happy?

My face is all smiles because I am happy! Some people do not understand, Can you live like this? People are healed, and you are so happy? Because this is the meaning of my life. I hope many people are blessed through me. I have paid a painful price for this, and now I finally see the fruit coming out; I am really happy!

It is like a farmer who plants a field and, when autumn comes and the harvest is plentiful, does not think about who will eat the rice or the noodles. But when he sees the wheat and rice in the field, the ears bending the stalks, and that one acre can yield so much grain, he is happy! How is this fruit produced? It is planted with hard work. Brothers and sisters, you must know that when a person puts in enough effort, when the fruit comes out, it is a very joyful thing!

I like to get things done. From the beginning when I established the church, I put in enough effort to build a victorious church. Until today, seeing the church becoming more and more victorious, more and more capable, and more and more like what the Bible says, I tell you, it is exhilarating! Really very exhilarating! Is it tiring? Actually, it is. I often have a saying to encourage myself, I was born for this, and I will die for this. This is my goal in life. So how can I not be happy? Since I was born for this, and I live for this, this is my fate! This is my destination!

People say, Look at you, you do not lack money, you do not lack anything, are you just bored? I say, Precisely because I am full and have nothing to do, I cannot find the meaning of living! How can living be meaningful when you are full and have nothing to do all day? Many people think being full and having nothing to do is very meaningful, but I think it has no meaning at all.

Now, diabetes, hyperlipidemia, and hypertension are all caused by overeating. So I have no interest in eating, and I have no interest in playing. I only have one interest, which is to have many people receive blessings. If you can receive blessings through me, I am happy; that is what I do. So how can God not hear my prayers? Why do I do this? Because God's Word tells me to do this.

Hearing God's Word and acting on it solves the problem of why people live. I also wrote a book called Recognizing the Empty Life, which is an exposition of Ecclesiastes. I really like Ecclesiastes; I read it once when I have nothing to do, and I listen to it once when I have nothing to do. Why? Because listening to it makes me sober. If you do not understand what you are living for today, I tell you, you are really living in vain! This book says: How a man lives, so does a beast live; there is not much difference between man and beast.

When I read these words, I said, Oh my God, I do not want to live like a beast! If I live like a beast, would that still be called a man? Isn't it? Beasts also forage for food, and so do you; beasts also have children, and so do you. Do not think that your destiny is to take care of your own family and live your own life. If you think this is what God said, you probably do not understand God's Word.

Solving why a person lives is a matter of life and death. What exactly are you living for? If you live for money, there is a saying that man dies for wealth, and birds die for food. So the problem lies here: What does man live for? If this cannot be solved, everything else is useless.

A Person's Core Interests Determine Their Value System

Some time ago, when someone listened to my sermon, they found my words a bit harsh because I really dislike making trouble. I do not like going to the streets to make noise, to stir things up. What is the point of stirring things up? I do not really like it. Why? Because that is not my purpose in living. My purpose in living is to be a blessing to many people. Many people like to participate in politics; they have this political stance, that political stance. There are many stances. There are red ones, blue ones, green ones, yellow ones, and even orange ones. There are many colors. What is my stance? I do not participate in this stuff. Why do I participate in this stuff? I came into this world, why would I do that?

I came into this world to adhere to and obey God's Word. I have seen through the trivial matters of this life. Why would I do that? In this life, I want to set the captives free and let the oppressed go free. If you let me serve these people, releasing them from the dominion of the power of darkness, then my spirits will rise immediately! If you let me go to the streets to make noise, I am sorry, I am not interested in that stuff.

Someone said, Why don't you like it? We are also fighting for freedom! The freedom you want and the freedom I want are not the same freedom. I am sorry, I just do not like it. Someone else said, What do you like? I like serving God. Do you like money? I do not like money. I only like serving God. This is my fate, you know? So, regarding political stances, who knows what a political stance is? My political stance is that I do not want to make trouble. I just want to be a blessing to people. I just want to cast out demons, heal, and deliver, and preach God's Word. Actually, God's Word also tells us not to make trouble, right? What is the point of making trouble?

Actually, this is a matter of core interests. What did Jesus say when He came into this world? Jesus said, My kingdom is not of this world. Look at what He said. If My kingdom were of this world, I would have fought with soldiers long ago, and I would have defeated them all. But when Jesus was beaten, He did not argue for Himself. When He was sentenced to death and crucified, He did not say a word to defend Himself. Can you understand why? I can understand because Jesus did not live for that stuff.

Even if he got to be a king in this world, what could he do? Eventually, what awaits him is a coffin. If it is done well, it will be a crystal coffin; if it is not done well, it will be a wooden coffin. Anyway, it is meaningless. This is a matter of core interests. This involves your core interests: Are they the core interests of this life or the core interests of eternal life?

Our view of living really determines many things. What exactly is your view of living? Why do so many people like to do these things? Because they feel that this is their core interest. Since it is their core interest, they must protect it! To protect their interests, they will go to the streets and fight for them.

Then good luck to you, anyway, I do not like this stuff. What do I like? I like adhering to and obeying God's Word. Because the heart of the king is also in God's hand. Is there any authority in the world that does not come from God? So let's not do these things, let's not touch these things. Since our core interest is eternal life, then it is okay to suffer a little loss in this life.

Actually, the matter of core interests has long been made clear in the Bible. Do not think that just because someone is a Christian, they really understand God's Word. There are many Christians that I am really surprised by. They do not really understand God's Word. Are they really like Jesus? If they are, then we will submit. But when have you ever seen Jesus organizing people to march in the streets? There is no such thing.

So it is a matter of core interests. Even if Jesus Christ's life was taken away, He did not care because He did not live for Himself. This was His purpose in coming into this world, to be crucified for mankind, to be the redemption for mankind, to be a sample of the path we should take, so that we can imitate His example and see through the things of this world.

So what exactly is our core interest? This is very important. What does it determine? It determines whether we have a worldly logical system or a godly logical system. Many Christians live in a worldly logical system, so of course they are very concerned about the things of the world, but I am not concerned. Actually, when I was young, I felt that living was not very meaningful, but at that time I did not believe in Jesus and did not know what to live for. Later, after believing in Jesus, I desperately read the Bible. To be frank, to offend everyone a little, many Christians really do not know what they are living for. It would be good if they knew.

Why do we listen to God's Word? Because we believe that our core interest is the kingdom of God. The kingdom of God is in heaven, it is eternal, not of this life, so it does not matter if we suffer a little loss in this life. Our family once had a small dog. I gave it a bone, but it did not know that I had given it the bone. When I took the bone from its mouth, it bared its teeth at me, which was quite scary. Why? Because that bone was its core interest.

So today, try many Christians out. Try what? Touch their core interests and see how they react. Once you touch it, you will know, Oh no, I can't. Once you touch it, they will bare their teeth. So you say, Then let me touch your core interest? Then touch it. My core interest is the kingdom of God. If you can touch it, then you are lucky. You are amazing!

So what exactly is a logical system? It is our core interests, plus a whole set of ideas that evolve through our core interests. If our system is an eternal logical system, then there is nothing in this world that we value. I am not interested in making a lot of money, so I do not take the bait. It is a bit difficult for scammers to scam me because I am not interested in that stuff. Why are people scammed? Because they have that desire in their hearts. So what is my desire? My desire is to be a blessing to many people.

It is more blessed to give than to receive. Someone asked me, Why do you minister with such a high price? Actually, sometimes ministering is really tiring. To put it bluntly, it is exhausting, very tiring and difficult. But why do I still minister with such a high price? Because I live for this, this is my destiny. So can such a person not be blessed? Recently, a sister was having problems with her eyes. I felt very sad. In one of her eyes, everything suddenly became blurry, all hazy, and she could not see anything. Even when she put her phone in front of her eyes, she could not make out the outlines.

The day before yesterday, I finally recovered a bit of energy, so I prayed with her. Not long after, her eyes began to see the outlines of things and became clearer and clearer. This sister is very blessed. There are not many people I can directly minister to in this situation, and I am very indebted to everyone. I really want to be able to be in many places at once. But if I really could be in many places at once, I would still have to spend my time on training, being able to train more people like me.

So I eagerly hope for those who are willing to lay down their lives for God, not for their own interests, but to be a blessing to others. Not to cause social unrest, but to contribute to social stability. But whether society is stable or not is not our biggest concern. Our biggest concern is to be a blessing to people. Think about it, if a person is poor because they are under the curse of poverty, giving them more money will not solve the problem. If a person is filthy, you can clean their house, but it will be filthy again in a few days. So how do you solve it? You have to solve the root problem.

So poverty is the curse of poverty, and disease is the curse of disease. If we want to be a blessing to people, we must strive to bring people to God's Word, so that people can hear God's Word and act on it, adhering to and obeying everything that comes out of God's mouth, and then you will find that they will be blessed. Destiny is to solve the problem of why people live. If you attain this destiny, you will be like me; if someone's eyes are about to go blind, but they get better with prayer.

Do you think I take money from those who are healed through me? No. If they are unwilling to give offerings, I don't even want their offerings. If they don't understand the meaning of giving offerings, what does the church need your offerings for? You are not worthy to give offerings. Because we have seen through the things of this world, what does money mean to us? So I want to let brothers and sisters come out of this delusion. Does building a church need money or people? It needs neither. Building a church needs God's presence and a group of people who adhere to and obey God's Word, willing to be disciples of Jesus Christ.

Willing to lay down their lives for Jesus Christ, willing to see through all the things of living, to see through life and death, willing to establish a godly logical system, willing to have an eternal logical system, willing to take adhering to and obeying God's Word as our core interest, willing to take the kingdom of God as our core interest. Does it sound a bit esoteric? Actually, it is not esoteric at all. You see, it is so good that I believe in the Lord like this, right? Like my mother, for example, my mother's two years of Alzheimer's have been healed. I took my mother out for a walk. In a shop, the proprietress said, Oh, your mother is very healthy!

My mother had Alzheimer's for two years. How was she healed? I healed her. How did I heal her? I took her to cast out demons! It is so good to take people to heal and deliver. I thank my God. I long to be a blessing to others. I long to attain destiny, to attain the meaning of living. I do not want to live like an animal. I want to live like Jesus Christ. As a result, God blessed me. What grace and mercy!

Let me tell you, two years ago, a person came among us. At that time, his eyes were completely blind. When he called me, I was driving, so I had a simple chat with him. Oh, I was heartbroken, really heartbroken. As a result, for more than a year, I used my time to change his value system. What was the result? His eyes got better, and now he is working normally.

At that time, not only could he not see, but his eyes also hurt, hurting to the point of death. Once he prayed, the pain disappeared, and then it was constantly repeated. I tell you that in this process, breaking down a person's worldly system is really a collision and a conflict! But in the end, I became his blessing. When I knew his eyes were healed, I thanked my God. How happy I was! A person who is blind, how will they live their days in the future? But God, through me, made me his blessing. God, through me, let him be healed, so I really thank God!

Why should I do this? Because this is my life, because this is my destiny! Actually, who doesn't know it's tiring? Everyone knows it's tiring, right? After being tired, what do you do? In this generation, there is a most commonly used word: pressure. After pressure comes depression. Do we have pressure when we serve God? Yes! These burdens are on us every day, but it doesn't matter, because this is the purpose of our living!

Obtaining Mingding Destiny to Be a Blessing: Starting from Genesis

Why do I feel this way? When I first started reading the Bible, I couldn't understand much of it; it was all a blur, truly vexing. Recently, I saw a sister in conversation with her pastor, saying that she used to listen to the Book of Joshua and couldn't understand it no matter how hard she tried. But a few days ago, this leader of ours led her through healing and deliverance, prayed to cast out demons, and broke down the worldly value system within her. Then, this sister said that now when she reads the Book of Joshua, she understands it immediately, and that she can now quickly understand things her boss used to give her that she could never figure out before! Isn't this being blessed?

It was the same when I first read the Bible—tough, hard to understand, and then I had to explain it to others. What was I explaining? Nonsense? I desperately read the Bible until I found a character very interesting, a man named Lot. This Lot formed a stark contrast with Abraham. Who was Lot? Abraham's nephew, the son of Abraham's brother. Lot's father died relatively early, so Abraham took him in and raised him as his own son, eventually bringing him to the land of Canaan. Both he and Lot became very wealthy. Where is this written? In Genesis chapter 13.

Do you know what I'm explaining? I'm explaining how obtaining Mingding Destiny and becoming a blessing comes about. It comes from reading Genesis. Genesis is very important. Why? Because it is the foundation of the entire Bible. You may not accept it, but I believe this is the case. The first eleven chapters of Genesis are the foundation of the entire book. The first three chapters of Genesis are the foundation of the first eleven chapters. The first chapter of Genesis is the foundation of the first three chapters. Genesis is so well-written!

As a result, I read the story of Lot and Abraham. These uncles and nephews were both very wealthy, and they began to argue about separating. Abraham said to Lot, Lot, you choose first. If you go to the east, I will go to the west; if you go to the south, I will go to the north. Lot chose a very fertile land called the plain of the Jordan. That place was like the garden of Jehovah, very lush, and like the land of Egypt. What is Egypt? Egypt represents the world.

Lot gradually moved and eventually settled in the city of Sodom. Living in Sodom, life must have been more comfortable than Abraham's. There were toilets, showers, a good night's sleep, and a good bath. How terrible was Abraham's living situation? Cows and sheep everywhere, making noise, living in tents, with no sanitation. Going to the toilet meant digging a hole outside the tent, like a rural outhouse. Could the hygiene be good?

Life is interesting. Lot was captured. When Abraham heard that his nephew had been captured, he, interestingly enough, led 318 men from his household, defeated the enemy, and rescued Lot. Before that, four kings had defeated five kings, but Abraham defeated these four kings. This Abraham was quite capable! After being rescued by Abraham, Lot returned to Sodom. Later, what happened? God was going to destroy Sodom.

God told Abraham about this plan. Abraham discussed it with God. Two angels went to Sodom, rescued Lot, his wife, and his two daughters from the city. After they were rescued, God sent fire down and burned the entire Sodom and the plain of the Jordan. Later, Lot was ruined. To make a long story short, after reading it, I was shocked. How did Lot end up ruined? Sad, isn't it?

But Abraham lived quite well. Later, I gradually understood that Lot's core interest was to live a better, more comfortable life. As a result, he moved to Sodom. Didn't Abraham know that life could be more comfortable in Sodom? He knew. How could he not know? But living a better life was not Abraham's core interest. Abraham's core interest was to carefully obey God's word and become a blessing to many people. This is what is said in Genesis chapter 12.

Later, Abraham kept moving his tent around, which was very hard. Abraham lived in tents his whole life, which was very difficult. But from what perspective should you see it? Abraham had long seen through the matters of life and death. He had a Godly logical system within him, a system of eternal life. This logical system within him was the hope of becoming a blessing to many people, so that all the peoples on earth would be blessed through him. Do you see it from this perspective? If you don't understand it, you will think, Oh, this old man is living so hard! But Abraham didn't care about this matter.

Losing Mingding Destiny, Living a Meager Life Is a Curse

Why was Lot ruined? He left an Abraham who had Mingding Destiny. Not only did he leave an Abraham who had Mingding Destiny, but he also abandoned his own Mingding Destiny. Jesus never praised Lot. Jesus said, Consider this: In the end times, it will be like Sodom and Gomorrah. Consider Lot and his wife. Why? Because we know that Lot was a man who lost his Mingding Destiny. Even today, many people say that Lot was a righteous man, and let them say it. Even if you say Peter said it, it's fine, but Lot's example isn't pretty. He was captured, his uncle rescued him, and he didn't even say thank you. He dusted himself off and went back to Sodom to continue his life.

Brothers and sisters, know that if living a meager life is your Mingding Destiny, I tell you, you will become a Lot who has lost his Mingding Destiny. So I think this example gives us a deep revelation. What are you pursuing? What kind of Christian do you want to be? Do you want to be a Lot-like Christian? He almost got burned by the fire from heaven. Lot had accumulated quite a bit of property in Sodom; he bought many houses, all of which were valuable. What happened in the end? All gone.

Don't you think life is very empty? If people knew in advance that they would be ruined in Sodom, left with only two daughters and a pot of wine, wouldn't it be better if people could see through the emptiness of life in advance? Later, Lot got drunk and had children with his two daughters. That was Lot—alas, alas. If you want to live a meager life, I tell you, that itself is a curse.

I've met many Christians who like to live a meager life, and they glorify it by saying it is our Christian responsibility. Is a Christian's responsibility to live a meager life? Living a meager life is like Lot. So, brothers and sisters, I want to bring you a shock. If you want to obtain blessings, you can only become a blessing to others. Becoming a blessing to others is obtaining Mingding Destiny.

If you want to become a blessing to others, you will pay the price for Jesus Christ. You will not be upset by sacrificing your own interests or your own comfort. Next, among us, everyone, big and small, will experience a small test: when your core interests are touched, what will you do? Are you desperately pursuing things in the world, hoping that God will bless you greatly, so that you can buy more houses...? When Lot bought houses, he thought it was God's blessing! When he was ruined, alas, all that was left was that pot of wine, which he drank in sorrow!

God never said to Lot, I will make you a blessing to all the peoples on earth; I will let all the peoples on earth be blessed through you. No. Lot lived a meager life, especially his wife. When she came out of Sodom, she looked back and turned into a pillar of salt. They had told her not to look back, but she couldn't let go of those things in her heart, so she looked back and turned into a pillar of salt. Isn't this person foolish? If a person lives only for the things of this world, then your ultimate goal is a coffin. So later I will give a sermon specifically on the theme of counting everything as rubbish in order to gain Jesus Christ as the most precious treasure.

This is Lot and Abraham. Actually, Jesus didn't praise Lot, and the Apostle Paul didn't praise Lot either. But the Apostle Peter liked to say how righteous Lot was... I think since Jesus didn't say much about it, and the Apostle Paul didn't say much about it, and Jesus even said that you should consider Lot and his wife, what should you consider? Don't lose your Mingding Destiny! So we must not imitate Lot.

You will gradually discover that some people are sons of Abraham, but one with Mingding Destiny, and one without Mingding Destiny. Abraham had two sons, one was Isaac, and one was Ishmael. Ishmael lived by his own hands and swords. What happened? Those who live by their own hands and swords are cursed. That is to say, Abraham's two sons, one was Hagar's son named Ishmael, and one was Sarah's son Isaac. What does the Bible say? Only Sarah's son can inherit the inheritance.

Understand? I think this is why Isaac was willing to offer himself willingly. When Abraham offered Isaac, Isaac was able to carry a thick bundle of wood, and that bundle of wood could be built into an altar. Then Abraham bound Isaac, put him on the wood, and was about to set him on fire. Isaac was willing to offer himself, and Abraham was willing to offer him. Finally, God told Abraham not to touch the child. As a result, Isaac came back alive.

Are you and I willing to offer Isaac like Abraham? Are you and I willing to offer ourselves willingly like Isaac? Isaac was willing to offer himself and lived a very peaceful life. Abraham suffered far more trials than Isaac. This is because there was a Mingding Destiny inside Isaac: he was to live for God, sacrificing his own life if necessary. Such a person is extraordinary! When it came to Isaac's two sons, Esau and Jacob, it also revolved around Mingding Destiny. I tell you, the entire Genesis, all the way to Esau and Jacob, and Joseph, is talking about Mingding Destiny.

Some pastors say about Jacob: Oh, Jacob is a liar, so he was later deceived. This is nonsense. Where does the Bible say this? Where does it criticize Jacob like this? Today's people are all moral experts, and they don't know whether they are reading the Bible or the Daodejing. Did Jacob deceive Esau? Yes, but after deceiving Esau, we find it difficult to understand his father. His father was a bit silly. Isaac asked Jacob, Are you Esau? He said, I am. But the voice was Jacob's voice. Couldn't Isaac hear it? As a result, God made Isaac's eyes unable to see, and Isaac blessed Jacob.

After blessing Jacob, Jacob fled and fell asleep in one place. He dreamed of a ladder to heaven, and Jehovah God stood on it, declaring blessings to Jacob, the same blessings declared to Abraham and Isaac. When Jacob woke up, he said, How awesome is this place! Jacob's life was extraordinary. Jacob paid a very heavy price for his Mingding Destiny, fleeing to his uncle Laban's house, where he worked for over 20 years, 14 years of which were for nothing.

And Esau? Esau came back from the outside and asked his father, Isn't there any blessing left for me? His father said, No. Esau had to rely on the swords in his hands to live, which is a curse. Brothers and sisters, do you rely on the swords in your hands to live, or do you rely on God's blessing to live? If you rely on the swords in your hands to live, that is a curse. If you rely on God's blessing, I tell you, you are truly blessed. If we recognize God's blessing, we will value God's covenant and value our Mingding Destiny and identity in God.

What is a Christian? A Christian is a priest of the living God, a royal priest. Understand? A Christian is a child of the living God. We must not underestimate our position; we must value our Mingding Destiny well. We were originally children of the living God, and we should live out God's glorious image. If we are children of the living God, do we need to work so hard? No, no need. So this is Esau and Jacob. If you want me to talk more, I can, but I will stop here for now.

Later, when it came to Jacob's son Joseph, he was also a man with Mingding Destiny, and he also paid a painful price for his Mingding Destiny. In Genesis chapter 38, it talks about Tamar. Reading through the Bible to Tamar is even more puzzling. Tamar pretended to be a prostitute and deceived her father-in-law, not her husband, but her father-in-law, because her husband had died. Tamar wanted to have children, so she pretended to be a prostitute and deceived her father-in-law. As a result, she really got pregnant, just once, and she got pregnant. After reading it, we are shocked. Even in today's society, it is difficult to accept such a thing. But Tamar became a righteous person. Why? Because she spared no effort for her Mingding Destiny, which was to have children from the house of Judah.

Did she get it in the end? She did, and what she gave birth to were Shelah and Perez. If you read Matthew chapter 1, you will find that Judah begot Shelah and Perez by Tamar, becoming people in the genealogy of Jesus Christ. Tamar was also very beautiful and a good person. Why didn't she remarry? No matter what, she had to obtain the covenant God gave to Abraham. No matter what, she had to become a blessing to all the peoples on earth. This is Tamar.

Mingding Destiny Is the Main Axis of the Entire Bible

If you carefully analyze what is inside Tamar, you will find that what is inside Tamar is one thing, called Mingding Destiny. Mingding Destiny is a theme that runs through the entire Bible. It is a very critical backbone of God's system of words. If the main line of God's words is Mingding Destiny, then we will seize this Mingding Destiny, be a resounding Christian, and desire to become a blessing to all nations and peoples on earth! Where does this blessing come from today? This blessing comes from Jesus Christ, and the body of Jesus Christ is the church.

If you are a pastor and you do not build up God's church well, then you are not building up the body of Jesus Christ well. How can you become a blessing to people? Isn't it? What is the result? The result is a curse. Either be a blessed Christian, or be a cursed Christian. The Israelites have been tossed around among the nations for more than two thousand years. Why? Because the original plan God had for them was for them to take on a Mingding Destiny, but they lost their Mingding Destiny. For what? To live a meager life, for money, for family, for this and that... They were tossed around among the nations for more than 2000 years, so the history of the Jews is a very tragic history. In World War II, Hitler killed 6 million Jews, which was very tragic.

The loss of Mingding Destiny by the Israelites is an extremely sad thing. Do you want to receive a blessing? Do you want to become a blessing to others? This is the key. If you want to receive a blessing, but you don't want to become a blessing to others, then what is the blessing for? You are a selfish person, you are just a Dead Sea, and there won't even be a single fish in the Dead Sea. But if you want to become a blessing to others, God will surely make you a blessing to others, and God's blessing will surely come upon you. This is the main line of our reading the Bible.

The theme of the New Testament Bible is to build a victorious church. The church must overcome the powers of hell and overcome all spiritual powers of darkness. The church's responsibility is to release those who are captive, to release those who are oppressed, so that they can become living beings with a spirit, who can live out the image of Jesus Christ, and also become people with Mingding Destiny!

Summary

I challenge everyone again, do you want to become a blessed person? If you say I do, I dream about it, then the problem lies here. What do you live for? If you live for your own meager life, then forget it. If you want to be blessed, that is a dream. The ideal is very full, the reality is very bony, isn't it? But if you want to lay down your life for Jesus Christ, be a disciple of Jesus Christ, take on the Mingding Destiny of Jesus Christ in this generation, so that God's will can be manifested through you, I tell you, you cannot but be blessed. God's blessing will surely be poured out on you, because you are a person with Mingding Destiny.

So the topic I am talking about is called obtaining Mingding Destiny to become a blessing. Are you willing to be like us, so that many people can be healed through your hands, and many people can be blessed because of you? This is an extremely beautiful thing. I believe in what we are doing today, so no matter how many people label us this way or that way, I don't care much.

But I believe that in heaven and on earth, the angels in God's kingdom will rejoice and cheer for us, because we are going to become a blessing to many people. God will surely have his angels encamp around us. God will surely be our commander and lead us to constant victory, until we enter the promised land. Because this is our life! This is our Mingding Destiny!

May God bless everyone!
