Introduction

Today, the message from Rick Joyner has been a tremendous encouragement to me, because he spoke of a prophecy that seems to be pointing directly at us. For God's will is constantly revealed through such prophecies. God has used Rick Joyner to write many books, including The Final Quest. This book is actually the greatest revelation God has given to the church of this generation through Rick Joyner. Our church, over the past years, has been walking step by step according to the process described by Rick Joyner in The Final Quest. As to whether it is a coincidence, some things we did after reading, and some things we did without knowing, only to find similarities after reading.

Today, we are all ascending the mountain of the Lord, entering the house of the God of Jacob. In these last days, God is establishing a generation of victorious church that welcomes the Lord Jesus Christ to return to the world. This generation is our Chinese generation, and it is also the generation that receives the baton of the Gospel, continues to pass it on, and takes on its Mingding Destiny. I am very, very honored to be involved in this plan. As for how we got here, and why God chose me, I do not know. But I know one thing, that there is a victorious faith within me. There were many days filled with tears, coming through difficult times, yet there remains an unquenchable victorious faith within. Because there was a great hope within me, that the church should be like Jesus. The key is that the church should be like Jesus.

You can preach many theological doctrines, speaking eloquently, but what is the use if you are not like Jesus? Some years ago, I asked myself why the church is not like Jesus. The things Jesus did, the church does not do; the things Jesus did not do, the church does a lot. I was very surprised. I said, God, I want to build a church where You can manifest miracles through my hands and in my life, to build a church like You. I long for my service to be like Yours! But looking back, I see that I am not like Jesus at all. What Jesus did, I cannot do; what I can do seems to be what Jesus did not do. It does not seem right at all. But I know in my heart that as long as I have faith, God will accomplish it. Even if I have a faint faith, God will still accomplish it. I thank God that step by step, God's revelation has come to us time and again, allowing us to walk in God's will. So in this generation, as we draw closer to the victorious church, our hearts are once again stirred.

A few days ago, I went back to the place we used to use, because we needed to dismantle all the renovations we had done and restore it to its original state when we rented it. When I entered that place, there were too many memories. These memories were not of victory, but of how we were ravaged by the devil. We had experienced many, many failures, fighting battle after battle, but we have all come through. These defeats cannot extinguish the victorious faith within us. Often, we feel nothing inside, often there is no emotion in our hearts, but I have faith in my heart that we will definitely come through. When sharing with my colleagues, they told me that they did not see that state in me at the time. I said that I had faith in my heart, so the state I showed was a state of victory, even though I often faced defeat. Today, I want to share with you a topic called: Victorious Faith.

Victorious faith is the key to building a victorious church. If you do not have faith in your heart, God cannot use you to manifest His power. No matter what you do, you need faith. A scientist once conducted an experiment, dividing people into two groups to memorize a string of unfamiliar numbers. When asked three minutes later, they could all recite them fluently. But when asked again a week later, they found that those who believed they could remember still remembered the numbers, while those who did not believe they could remember had forgotten them. Faith has a profound effect on people's memory, not only in remembering numbers but in all things.

Recently, I trained our colleagues to start scraping plaster. What I saw was very surprising to me. I quickly mastered the techniques of scraping plaster and applying gypsum powder. The way my arm swung was like the way it looked in the video of scraping plaster. Swinging the arm far away makes it comfortable to scrape. Later, I fell in love with scraping plaster. Because every time I scraped the wall flat, I would stand there and enjoy the effect of my scraping. But when I watched my colleagues scrape, they would patch the uneven spots. Their movements did not look comfortable at all. I demonstrated to them, Scrape like this, do it like this, but when I saw them doing it, they were still applying it little by little. So I really wanted to know why this was happening.

Later, I realized that it was not a matter of attitude, because he was a brother with a very good attitude, with no problems at all. But later he found the key to the problem, because we had been discussing the key to the problem. It was that he did not believe that he could smooth the wall when he was doing it. I finally found the key to the matter. It turns out that faith is so important in the process of doing everything. When he began to regain confidence, believing that he could smooth the wall, he smoothed the wall, and he began to enjoy the feeling of scraping plaster like I did. If you are interested, I would really like to build a team of colleagues who can scrape plaster all over Singapore.

Smoothing the wall is an external manifestation of faith. This incident began to give me more confidence to promote something in the church, to let all our brothers and sisters do some things that can exercise faith. Of course, scraping plaster is a very direct way to exercise faith, because after you scrape, the wall is either flat or not flat. You can shout Hallelujah in the church for a long time and very loudly, but that does not require faith.

Later, I really found the basis in the Bible. The Bible showed me that the Apostle Paul was a person who made tents. He could do many things, and it did not delay him from building the church. Don't you think it is strange? Those who never do anything, only do things that involve talking in the temple, many of them became Pharisees in the years of Jesus. Today, we must know for sure that your faith must be exercised through your mouth and through your hands, and you must do things.

I have had a personality since I was a child. I am bragging about myself again, please bear with me. I have always wanted to know why I learn so well, because I believe that I can do everything well. When I am doing something, I believe that I can do it well. I finally found how I became such a person. It turns out that I have been willing to be a person of faith since I was a child. So when I build a church, in my faith, no matter how harsh or difficult the environment, building a glorious church has never changed, and my faith has never been extinguished.

When I read the Bible, I believe that I will understand the word of God, and then I really will understand it. When I work as an engineer, I believe that I will be a very excellent engineer. When I study, I believe that I will understand the book. Once, I read a book called The True God of the Trinity. After reading it, I could not understand it at all. Later, I concluded that it was because the author did not write it clearly at all. I did not believe that I could not understand it, because I have such faith in my heart. So I learned very well.

When I do education, I hope to be a well-known educationist; when I do management, I want to be the best manager; when I do church, I want to build the best church; when I do healing and deliverance, I want to do the best healing and deliverance, very much like Jesus; when I do business, I want to do a very prosperous business; when I do renovation, I do a very good renovation; when I do design, I become a design expert in the use of small spaces. I really understand how small spaces can improve their utilization rate. The Japanese are very good at it. I often watch those videos on the use of space, which is very impressive. I abstracted a letter called L, the L of hammer and the L of plane. Of course, today I am not talking about renovation, nor about space utilization.

When I started speaking English, I could not speak English at all when I came to Singapore, but today I do not think my English is inferior to many people, including Singaporeans. Recently, I have been preparing to start preaching in English and studying the Bible in English. This is a bit challenging, but I believe I can do it well, I believe I will do better and better. Some sisters said, Doing this and doing that, it seems a bit chaotic. But it does not matter, in my faith, those chaos will be removed.

Let me boast again today, now we have written 38 books. I have done so much. It is really very, very effective, and there is a lot of originality in these books. Many of the views are not copied from the Internet, but are revealed to us by God. To know God, we must constantly surpass ourselves, and believe that we will surpass ourselves. You will definitely take another step, two steps, three steps forward on your current foundation. This is our faith.

Having faith will be reflected in our patience and persistence in doing things. With patience and persistence, we will be constantly renewed in God. Our faith will be reflected in patience, persistence, and paying the price. The price I pay is very heavy. Among many pastors, I can say that I am a person who pays a heavy price. I work very, very hard. Many people do not deny this. Even if they are pastors, they do not deny that I work really hard, because I have faith in my heart, a victorious faith.

What God wants is a constantly renewed vessel. God does not want old wineskins. God wants to fill your new wineskin with new wine. The new wineskin is that you have a victorious faith inside, constantly being elevated and constantly being renewed, preparing yourself to be a new wineskin no matter what. Actually, looking back on these past years, I feel a little self-pity, but I am very happy, I am very happy, because after doing something, I get promoted, and after being promoted, I get promoted again. Every time after being promoted, I face new challenges, new problems, and new expansions. It is very hard.

So there is a reason why I rarely sleep before 2 a.m. in the past years, because you do something and then you get promoted again, and you are just getting familiar with the work and then you start getting promoted again, just getting familiar with the work, and every time it is a situation of expansion. That is to say, we must constantly expand and begin to become a new wineskin, new wine and new wineskin.

Today, do not think that our church will become a very traditional church. Because tradition will remain for a very, very long time, and then become very old, very old Pharisees. You say, Oh! It is too tiring to walk this way. You can find a comfortable place, but that is definitely not here. If you want to be a Christian among us, do not think about getting comfort, do not think about living a small life. You cannot do that here. You can only be constantly renewed among us. As long as you are willing, we will see the effect of your victory and see your exercise of faith. Let us look at today's scripture.

Scripture

He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he shall go out no more. I will write on him the name of My God and the name of the city of My God, the New Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God, and My new name.” He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” (Revelation 3:12-13)

Prayer

Lord Jesus, may You build us on Your rock, let us be built on the foundation of Your faith, to become a victorious church. Lord Jesus, we know that Your will is to build a victorious church, so we come to You with faith. Lord Jesus, please use us to accomplish Your will according to what we believe in our hearts. We believe that we can work with You to build a victorious church and become pillars in Your temple. You will also write Your name, that is, Your new name, on us. Our names will be connected with Your name. Lord Jesus, You will raise us up in this end-time era, build Your victorious church, and welcome Your return. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen!

God's Will is to Build a Victorious Church

The victorious church is the concept we constantly convey. God's will in the New Testament is the church. If we summarize a theme from the New Testament, it is the church. What kind of church is it? It is a glorious and victorious church. If you read Revelation carefully, from Revelation chapter 2, verse 1, to the last verse of chapter 3, it is constantly repeating one sentence: How the victorious church will be, how the victorious church will be. And then: He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

Do not think that God sees you building a non-victorious church, and you say that this is God's plan for us. No, this is not God's plan for you! God's plan for you is to build a victorious church, but to build a victorious church, you must have a victorious hope and a victorious faith in your heart. If you do not have a victorious faith in your heart, and you think, I am just like this, then the church I build will be like this, and this is God's will. Is this really God's plan? If that were really the case, the Bible would not say this: He who has ears, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.

Jesus said, “Truly I tell you,” Jesus said to them, “no one who has left home or wife or brothers or sisters or parents or children for the sake of the kingdom of God will fail to receive many times as much in this age, and in the age to come eternal life.” (Luke 18:29-30)

Many people read the same Bible as us, the same scriptures. But do they have the willingness and faith to build a victorious church in their hearts? Some people say as soon as they hear my words, Only you can do it! Actually, I really cannot do it. But I believe that my God will use me. When I am not victorious, I believe that is not God's will. When I am terribly bullied by the devil, I know that God's will is to lead me to victory. I will continue to hold on tightly, even with a faint faith, to grasp God.

I know the words the Bible tells us, I have heard them, and he who has ears should listen. But after I have heard them, I choose the victorious faith. Brothers and sisters, do you know that when we do healing and deliverance, I have a stubborn faith in my heart, not a stubborn unbelief. If a person is not healed, my brothers and sisters will inherit a character: that is, to keep serving until victory.

The key is to build the church according to God's revelation. Recently, we have been doing healing and deliverance training. Our healing and deliverance training team came up with an interesting topic: What is the key to building a victorious church? Many answers came out. Some answered: Overcoming oneself. That is not what I have said. The key to building a victorious church is to build according to God's revelation. If you do not build the church according to God's revelation, it is impossible to become a victorious church. If you build according to God's revelation, you will definitely become a victorious and glorious church. In the process of building a victorious church, there are many people who make many excuses for their unbelief. Until today, I am really surprised in my heart that so many things that do not conform to the Bible are circulating in the church.

A few days ago, I met a very lovely brother. I asked him, Which church are you in now? The brother said, I am in a certain church. I said, Then how are you now? The brother said, Our church is very good. Our church pursues balance. Family, work, and church must be balanced. I thought, How did I not read this concept of balance in the Bible? I flipped through the Bible from front to back and I did not find it.

But I found one thing: You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. Where does it say that you should love the church, family, and work with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength in balance? Can it be balanced? Where has God said to balance? God has never said: You must love me, and also love your wife as much as you love me. Is there such a word? There is only: You must love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength. To ask you to give up everything for God, forsake parents, children, wife, brothers, houses, and fields. What does it mean? No one thing can be elevated to be the same as God. Only God deserves to sit on the throne and be Lord in our lives.

You cannot say: Lord Jesus, You are my Lord, and my wife is also my lord. You cannot do this. You have only one Lord, who is our God. We must have a very clear understanding that our Mingding Destiny is to build God's glorious church. If the church is balanced with your work and your family, then what can you use to build God's glorious church?

When the church needs to call you to fight a spiritual battle, you say, Oh! I still have this and that! Jesus said: Follow me! You said: Let me go back and bury my father. Jesus said: Let the dead bury their own dead, but you must come and follow me. Which one does not forsake everything? Does the Bible teach us to balance? If you want to balance, then give your heart, soul, and strength to build His glorious church in God. If you seek the kingdom of God, other things will be added to you.

Some people said to me: Can you pray for my business? I said, Why should I pray for your business? Because my business needs prayer very much. I thought, if you seek the kingdom of God, all these things will be added to you. In our lives, if you understand a little bit of philosophy and management, you must grasp the most important thing! People often try to balance in their lives, and you cannot grasp anything important. Grasp the most important thing, and then grasp the second most important thing, and then grasp the third most important thing, and you will get everything. If you put the important thing and the unimportant thing together and grasp them together, you will accomplish nothing in your life!

There is a book called The One Thing. The most important thing is only one thing. If you grasp the most important thing, will other things be obtained? Yes. If you grasp the kingdom of God and forsake many things in the world, there is no one who will not receive a hundred times more in this life and eternal life in the age to come. Everyone must know that God's will is the victorious church. If you do not completely give yourself in the victorious church, and you pursue a balance, you will not be able to balance. What can you balance with the kingdom of God? If your business is balanced with the kingdom of God, your business will be cursed. If your family is balanced with the kingdom of God, your family will be cursed. If your own wealth is balanced with the kingdom of God, your wealth will be cursed. Today, we must know that our God is everything to us. God's will is not just a church, but a victorious church. Our Mingding Destiny is to build a victorious church.

The Key to Building a Victorious Church is Our Faith

‘The glory of this latter temple shall be greater than the former,’ says the Lord of hosts. ‘And in this place I will give peace,’ says the Lord of hosts.” (Haggai 2:9)

Now faith is confidence in what we hope for and assurance about what we do not see. (Hebrews 11:1)

Just now I shared with you that going back to see our original place, walking the original road, there was heartache, tears, and frustration, but I had a victorious faith in my heart. I knew that one day God's glorious church would be built among us. What you see today is only a little bit. The future victory and glory will be greater than the present. The latter glory will be greater than the former. Actually, at that time I told you that I had no feeling in my heart.

I have met some Christians many times, one of whom is my good friend. When he prays for people, if the hair on his body stands up, the person will be healed. If the hair on his body does not stand up, he will not pray for others. He said, I will wait until the hair on my body stands up before I pray for others. But the hair on my body never stands up. I have no feeling, as if God has not chosen me.

Some people ask me: Has God really chosen you? I said: God has chosen me. They said: How do you know? I said: I believe it! I am weak, and I really do not look like it! Not at all! But I still believe that God has chosen me. I still believe that God will use me to build His victorious church. I am a vessel used by God. Later I found the key basis in the Bible: Jacob waited for God for more than seventy years, with no feeling at all. He only had faith. He obtained the birthright from a secondary son, obtaining the covenant that his grandfather Abraham and father Isaac made with God. What evidence did he have? None. The evidence is faith itself!

The evidence is faith itself. Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. So you may look at yourself as I looked at myself at the time, you do not look like it at all. But it does not matter, you must have faith in your heart. I can definitely build a victorious group. I can definitely build a victorious pastoral district. I can definitely do a good job in shepherding. Because I believe! Faith is the assurance of victory. We have a victorious faith in our hearts, and you can be used by God.

If you count the past days, how many days were attacked by the devil, how many days were victorious, how many days did you feel like you could not persevere? But it was my faith that brought me out and made me walk out. People ask me: Why do you believe? I said: I just believe. I like to believe. I cannot live without believing! Whenever I do not believe, I feel so uncomfortable! That discomfort is really unbearable, but when I believe, my heart will be comforted. Faith is so wonderful, so I mention faith in all my sermons. If you hear that my sermon is the same old thing, faith is forever and ever, and you must always talk about faith!

Our God is searching in heaven and on earth for those who have faith. When He finds them, He treasures them, selling all He has to buy them, so that they may be pillars in God's temple, with their names linked to God's name. Some say, Oh, how many Abrahams are there? How many Isaacs? How many Jacobs? How many Josephs? Just one each. I say, No, there is another one, and that is me. The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, the God of Jacob, and then my God. My name will be linked with God's name.

Standing on the road we have traveled and looking forward, we are filled with challenges. I do not know if I can do it, but I believe I can. We must expand our English-speaking ministry, our Korean-speaking ministry, and our Cantonese-speaking ministry. Some will ask, Can you really do it? I cannot, but my God can, and I believe I can do it. It does not matter if I cannot; my God will surely make me victorious, my God will surely enable me to do it!

Mentioning the words Religious Reformation, these words sound too grand, don't they? A few days ago, I told a Singaporean friend that I was going to do a religious reformation, and he said, Ah? Isn't that a bit much? I asked, Is it too much? He said, Religious Reformation is what Martin Luther did! It does not matter, haven't we been doing it all along? In fact, God's truth has been constantly restored since Martin Luther's reformation. Every era has elements of religious reformation, and every era has elements of God's truth being constantly restored. What is so surprising about this?

I do not look like someone who is carrying out religious reformation, but it does not matter, I have faith within me. The difficulties before us are always greater than us, and what we face always seems like a giant. But it does not matter, we have God within us, and God will cause the giant's heart to melt before us, because we are going to possess the land. Those giants see us as grasshoppers, and when we look at those giants, we see ourselves as grasshoppers too. But it does not matter, we grasshoppers will gnaw those giants down; even ants can gnaw down an elephant bit by bit, and that is faith! We are going to do things that seem and sound too big; we like to do that, we like to find a giant and take him down.

Why do we do this? Not for any other reason, but because we have a glorious hope within us, and this glorious hope is precisely God's will. God is looking for those who will build a victorious church, God is looking for those who have victorious faith, to become vessels that can be used by Him. I said to God, God, this is too difficult, but what is impossible for me is possible for you! God, here I am, please use me. God, I am willing to give everything for you. God, this is my glorious Mingding Destiny, I will obtain it even if I die, I was born for this, and I came into the world for this. You are the God who makes me victorious. My faith is all in God, God you will surely regard me as precious, you will surely link your name with my name, and you will surely engrave your name on us, we must be raised up in this era to become a victorious group of people who clear away the erroneous concepts in the church!

It is not feeling, it is believing, just believing, just liking to believe. Believing when you have feelings, and believing even when you do not have feelings, serving when your hair stands on end, and still serving even when your hair does not stand on end—this is us! We are a group of brothers and sisters who build God's victorious church, we are a group of elite soldiers who build a victorious church, so that in this era, God's glory can be manifested through us. Doing such things requires courage! If you want to become a vessel used by God, you must have courage!

Faith is Courage

Faith is courage. Some years ago, I had a dream before God, a daydream with my eyes open. Some people ask me, Others like Joseph have dreams, Joseph can dream. What if I haven't had such a dream? I say, Can't you have a dream with your eyes open? Thinking of something in your mind with your eyes open is a dream. Can't I make up a dream? Some years ago, I made up a dream with my eyes open, a dream of a glorious church, and that was quite a courageous choice.

Timidity is not faith. All who are timid, as written in Revelation, will be thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur. Timidity is definitely not faith; you must have courage. When Caleb and Joshua saw the giants in the land of Canaan, what did they see? They also saw themselves as grasshoppers, and the giants also saw Joshua and Caleb as grasshoppers. It was not because of how they were themselves, looking at the guns in their hands, and then looking at the guns in the giants' hands, the weapons were much thinner and shorter than theirs, but our God does not care about guns, or swords, or the muscles on your body, or the horse under your crotch. We read ancient novels: a red rabbit horse under the crotch, and a bright silver spear in hand, very powerful. But our God does not rely on these at all. Our God only gives you a small stone, and you can take down a giant. No need for armor, no need for spears, all you need is a small stone! We do not have a red rabbit horse under our crotch, we have nothing, we only have the courage that God gives us to face the giants, and the giants will surely fall completely before us.

Courage is a choice; if a person has the courage not to fear death, he will surely be victorious. Why are we afraid? Because we care about too many things. Last night I was teaching a sister, and I told her not to care about so many things. Why care about so many things? What good does it do to care and care? In the past, when her husband was alive, he cheated on her, and she got so angry that she went deaf in one ear. To this day, she still wears a hearing aid, and her mind is often filled with negative things. Yesterday, I encouraged her, encouraged her to have faith, to choose the path of faith. Because according to the conditions, according to reality, according to the actual situation, we have no way to be victorious. Because according to the conditions, we are all humble people, we really do not look like the high class of society, we are all at the bottom of society. Not many are noble according to the flesh, and not many are capable, but we are all people of faith.

Yesterday there was a sister, I talked to her for a few words, because she suffered heavy losses in her investments. She borrowed 50,000 yuan, and after investing, she was left with 30,000 yuan. Others borrow 50,000 yuan, and after investing, 50,000 plus 50,000 becomes 100,000, 5,000 plus 5,000 becomes 10,000, but hers became 30,000, losing a lot in stocks and futures. I directly told her, Your inner qualities are not good, you have no faith inside, you have no courage inside. She made decisions based on timidity, and she asked me if she should continue to do it? I said, You can choose to continue to do it, and you can choose not to listen to me, but you must practice your inner qualities and become a person of faith. Of course, I do not encourage everyone to speculate, but we should all have the concept of investment inside, have courage, and have faith.

Do you know why people do not have faith? Because people care about too many things. If you care about money, you cannot invest. People who love money will basically not become wealthy, but people who love God will. If you love money, money will become your bondage, how can you invest well? You see some investment managers, they are very good at investing other people's money, but not so good at investing their own money. When investing their own money, their hands tremble when they click the keyboard, but when investing other people's money, they are very smooth, because it is not their money that is being lost, but when investing their own money, they lose everything, because their psychological qualities are not good. People often have a bottom line inside, and today we must remove that bottom line. If you have a bottom line, the devil will often destroy your bottom line, and you will go crazy and collapse when that bottom line is touched.

Inside me, there is only one thing, and that is faith, with no bottom line. The devil has nothing to touch. Inside me is God, is Mingding Destiny. Nothing can move my Mingding Destiny, and nothing can touch our God. I will love the Lord our God with all my heart, soul, and strength. Why does God not allow us to love our parents more than we love God? Because if you love your parents more than you love God, the devil will touch your parents, and that is harming them. If you love your children more than you love God, the devil will surely touch your children. Whatever makes you collapse, the devil will very clearly come to touch.

Today we must remove the bottom lines inside us. Your bottom line represents your spiritual height. If your spiritual height is not enough, there will be endless problems to solve. If your spiritual height is enough, your bottom line will become God. Your height is the key to solving your problems. If your height is not enough, your problems will never be solved well. Today we must all ascend the mountain of the Lord, constantly increase our spiritual height, and enter the temple of the God of Jacob, until we come to the temple of God.

If you want to be victorious, you must remove your bottom lines, remove what makes us timid, and increase our height to see through the essence of things. The practice of courage is practiced by doing things. The Lord Jesus told a parable: someone took one thousand taels, someone took two thousand taels, and someone took five thousand taels. Those who had courage invested the two thousand taels, and those who had five thousand taels invested them, while the timid buried the one thousand taels in the ground. Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. What you value is where your heart is.

Doing things, doing business, and investing are all practices of faith. Doing business requires a lot of faith. Working for someone else does not require much faith. What does working for someone else require? Going to work and getting off work every day. You do not need to worry about your employees' salaries every day. You only care about whether your boss will deposit your salary into your account when the time comes. You do not need much faith. If you are often there day after day, year after year, without practicing faith, will God not deal with you? God will surely deal with you. You need to come out of your comfortable environment and enter into the practice of faith. Only the practice of faith can please God. Our church is a church that practices faith in the midst of doing things.

Practicing Faith in the Midst of Doing Things

Investing is a very good practice of faith. Some time ago, I took the brothers and sisters to invest. We found a godforsaken place to invest, and I was praying to God every day, what if the price does not go up? Because I made the decision. If I made the wrong decision, they would blame me, and I am really afraid of being blamed by them. Later, the price went up, and that was because of the support of faith.

Why did God use the parable of one thousand, two thousand, and five thousand taels of silver? If you have two thousand yuan in your hand, do you want to invest? If you have five thousand yuan in your hand, do you want to invest? In the Bible, these people all took the money to do business. Some earned five thousand taels, and some earned two thousand taels. It turns out that there are many places in the Bible where God uses money as a parable, accounting for 30%. Because where your treasure is, what you value is, there your heart will be also.

Where your heart is, that is where you practice faith. Today I encourage the brothers and sisters among us to all take out their faith and constantly practice it. Those who have two thousand yuan, take out two thousand yuan to do business, and those who have five thousand yuan, do five thousand yuan of business, and those who have fifty thousand yuan, do fifty thousand yuan of business. You say I only have one copper coin, then do a one-copper-coin business. I heard that someone used a yo-yo to exchange for a seashell, then exchanged it for a bigger seashell, and then exchanged it for a sheep, then exchanged it for a cow... and exchanged it for a house. But some people exchanged a house for a cow, then exchanged it for a sheep... and in the end, only exchanged it for a glass ball.

In this world, people who trust in God start to build a victorious church, go out to do things, and God will surely bless you. Why can the five thousand and two thousand taels of silver be earned? Because God caused him to earn it. Today I feel how good God's presence is. Everything my hand touches prospers, because I am a person who builds God's victorious church. I am thinking about whether I should take my colleagues to do some business. But I do not want to spend a lot of time. Don't think that I am the kind of person who spends eight hours and then spends more than ten hours, and then does not sleep and gets cancer. I only spend three or four hours a day doing these things. I want my employees to be people who practice faith, and then the brothers and sisters they serve in the workplace will be like them, able to bring blessings to others.

When you face difficulties, you must face them and solve them. That is victorious faith. When you encounter difficulties, do you choose to retreat, or do you choose to face the chaotic and ambiguous state and look for answers? Gather information, digest it, understand it, master it, find the answers to solve the problem, and turn something chaotic into something orderly, that is the image of God.

In the past, I often heard people say that salvation is going to heaven when people die. I searched the entire Bible and found that salvation is restoring God's glorious image while we are alive. Of course, this is part of the Religious Reformation. A few days ago, a colleague showed me a video of Lei Jun speaking English, and I laughed so hard that I fell forward and backward. It was very funny. Lei Jun went to India to promote his Xiaomi phone. He meant to say, Do you like this Xiaomi 4 phone? In English, he said, Do you like me, four? I laughed out loud. But Lei Jun had victorious faith inside. He really dared to speak, really dared to say it.

Lei Jun's English was about the same as when I first came to Singapore. He said, Hello, everyone, are you OK? Actually, Are you OK? in English is used to describe someone who is sick, asking if they are feeling well. It is a bit inapt, but he is a person of faith, very remarkable, and I admire him wholeheartedly. He was able to build Xiaomi into its current scale, and that is because he is a person of faith! People with faith dare to speak even if they do not speak English well. The result was very good. What he said in English was turned into a song and put on the internet, and now it has become a very popular song called Are you OK, really great! You know, some of our brothers and sisters created Mingding Destiny music when they did not understand anything at first, and they created it. That is faith! The result of faith is miracles. What are miracles? It is when something that was originally impossible becomes possible. Do you like to turn impossible things into possible things, or turn possible things into impossible things? I will tell you the answer: turning inherently impossible things into possible things is a very enjoyable thing.

So, a person with faith enjoys being a pastor, a person with faith enjoys being a teacher, and a person with faith enjoys being a lawyer or whatever they are. But a person without faith is in trouble. Lei Jun's success is not because he is Lei Jun, but because he is a person of faith. If you look at those successful people in the business world today, no matter what their religious beliefs are, you will definitely find elements of faith in them. You cannot go on in business or investment without faith. If you are a person of faith, in God's eyes in this generation, you are a very important treasure. When you encounter difficulties that seem impossible, you can rush past them!

Being Pillars in the Temple of God

Practice your faith. Maybe at first your faith can only be like a matchstick, not to mention a pillar. But if your faith is like a mustard seed, the smallest of all seeds, you can move mountains! Because faith will grow. In the process of constant practice, you can practice a matchstick into a wooden stick, from a wooden stick into a wooden棒! A wooden棒 turns into a pillar, and a pillar turns into precious material in God's hand used in the temple to make foundation stones.

In the future, I have an expectation that God's name will be engraved on us: the God of brother WF, the God of sister YN, the God of sister ML, the God of sister LL, the God of sister Little Sun, our God! Your God is our God, and where you are, I will be! Did you hear that, how forceful these words are! God's name should always be known, and when people know our God because of you, your name will be linked to the name of our God, and the name of our God will be engraved on us.

If brother WF serves some brothers and sisters, these brothers and sisters will say, The God of teacher WF is really great! How is that? It is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, and later it becomes your God and my God. We look at ourselves and seem not so great, but it does not matter, we will persevere until God's glorious church is built. We will be leaders and pillars in the church, and God's name will be closely linked with your name.

The term Religious Reformation is a bit big, and we do not look like it, but it does not matter, we dare to say it. We will accomplish it by saying it, so we must always say it. Today we are not boasting, but we are boasting about a victorious church, well-trained Christians. Today brothers and sisters should not be afraid of being dealt with. If you want to be a pillar in the temple of God, you must be able to withstand all pressure. Pressure cannot overcome you.

What is pressure? We were born to be pillars that support pressure! If the church is big, it does not matter, I am here to support it with this pillar. You may say is this 牛皮 blown too big? Is that too big? The faith inside me is much bigger than that! We will start to be trained, constantly trained in faith! Constantly trained in healing and deliverance, constantly trained in spiritual warfare in God's kingdom. No matter how fierce, how evil, how powerful the opponent is, they can never stand before God. Our God will surely make us victorious!

Summary

Today we have written 38 books, putting all the revelations we have received from God into the books. Until today, I have asked some of my Christian friends in other churches about the situation of their churches studying Genesis, and they all said that they skipped it all, they dared not talk about Mingding Destiny, and they did not know that it was talking about Mingding Destiny, but we have clearly written all of these in the books. Tamar pretended to be a prostitute for the sake of Mingding Destiny, risking her life to obtain Mingding Destiny. It did not seem like it at all, but she became a very famous person in the genealogy of Jesus Christ. Judah begot Zerah and Perez by Tamar, and wherever the gospel is preached, the name of Tamar is praised. Whoever reads the Gospel of Matthew will read the passage that Judah begot Zerah and Perez by Tamar.

We do not care at all, we break through the rules and regulations, and we also break through this term Religious Reformation! We are willing to do this, and even if others put many strange hats on us, we do not mind wearing them, because we know that is God's will, and God's truth must be constantly restored. God began to restore the truth of being filled with the Holy Spirit in 1900, and later, in the 1940s and 1950s, He established a businessman's fellowship through an American businessman. His name is also constantly being praised. The Singaporean businessman's Christian fellowship once played a very important role in the Religious Reformation, promoting the filling of the Holy Spirit and promoting things that many churches had never touched. I know many friends in the businessman's fellowship, who are Christian brothers and sisters who love the Lord very much, but today God wants to raise us up to pass on constantly updated information. The truth of the Bible is constantly being restored! Knowing God is endless. Do not think that we have already known God enough in the past. It is never enough!

Religious Reformation is always needed. Martin Luther did not complete the Religious Reformation. The Religious Reformation has been continuing since Martin Luther. John Wesley made some reforms, John Calvin also made some reforms, and later Evan Roberts also made reforms. Later, many, many people were greatly used by God in the Reformation. Today we must constantly re-excavate the truths of the Bible. The truth of the Bible is an infinite treasure, and we have only excavated a little bit, but today we must continue to excavate, and this is called reformation.

China's reform and opening up has led to today's prosperous and strong China. Today's reform is to make the church regain its vitality, restore its life, and transform the inconspicuous people in society, who may be the scum of society and the burden of society, into talents of society. Then equip them with truth, arm them with faith, and let the faith inside them be rekindled! Let the power of God be manifested again through his life. His life must re-manifest the glorious image that God created him with. Everything that the devil has stolen must be repaid in double!

From now on, the name of our God will be forever linked with our names. We are the vessels used by God to be a blessing to this generation. Amen!

【精彩讲道】
今天我们所听到的雷克乔纳的信息,对我是一个极大的激励,因为他在讲一个预言,似乎这个预言正在指向我们。因为神的心意透过这样的预言不断地被彰显出来,神透过雷克乔纳写过很多本书,其中包括《末日决战》。《末日决战》这本书其实是神透过雷克乔纳,给这个世代的教会一个最伟大的启示。我们教会过去这么多年,是照着雷克乔纳在《末日决战》里所描述的过程一步一步走过来的。至于是不是巧合,有些是我们读了我们做了,有一些是我们不知道我们做了,我们读了之后发现跟里面是雷同。

今天我们都在登耶和华的山,进雅各神的殿,这是末后的日子,神要建立一个欢迎主耶稣基督再次回到世上的,得胜教会的世代。这样的世代是我们华人的世代,也是我们接过福音棒子,继续往下传递担起命定的世代。我非常非常地荣幸能够参与到这样的计划当中,至于是怎么样走过来的,至于神为什么拣选我,我不知道。但是我知道一件事情,就是在我的里面有得胜的信心。曾经有很多的日子是以泪洗面,从艰难的日子走过来,在里面仍然有一颗不被磨灭的得胜的信心。因为在我的里面曾经有极大的盼望,就是教会要像耶稣,**教会要像耶稣是关键。** 你可以把神学的道理讲很多,讲来讲去讲得头头是道,但是不像耶稣又有什么用?好些年前我问自己为什么教会不像耶稣,耶稣做的教会不做,耶稣不做的教会做一堆,我非常地诧异。我说:“神,我要建立一间教会,神你要透过我的手在我身上彰显神迹,建立一个像你的教会。我渴望我的服侍像你!”但是回过头来,眼睛看到自己身上一点也不像。耶稣做的我不能做,我能做的好像都是耶稣不做的,怎么看怎么不像。但是在我的里面我知道,只要我有信心,神就会成就。就算我有奄奄一息的信心,神也仍然会成就。我感谢神,一步一步走过来,神的启示一次又一次地临到,让我们走在神的心意当中。所以在这个世代,当我们越来越靠近得胜教会的时候,我们的心开始再次被激励。

前两天我回去我们所用过的地方,因为我们所用的地方需要把我们所装修的东西全部拆掉,还原成租的时候那个样子。我进到那个里面,那里面有太多的回忆。那个回忆根本不是得胜的回忆,而是如何被魔鬼摧残。曾经经历过非常非常多的失败,打了一场又一场的败仗,但是我们都走过来了。这些败仗不能够磨灭我们里面得胜的信心,常常我们里面什么感觉也没有,常常在我们的里面什么样的感动也没有,但是我里面有信心,这个信心就是将来一定可以走过来。跟我的同工分享的时候,他们跟我说,当时怎么看不到你那种状态?我说我里面有信心,所以我表现出来的状态是得胜的状态,虽然常常面对打败仗的光景。今天我想跟大家分享的题目叫做:得胜的信心。 **得胜的信心是建立得胜教会的关键**,如果你里面没有信心,神没有办法来使用你彰显祂的大能。无论你做什么,都需要有信心。曾经有个科学家做了一个实验,分了两波人记一串陌生的数字,三分钟之后问他们的时候,他们都能倒背如流。但是过了一个礼拜再问的时候,他们发现那些相信自己能记住的仍然能记住那些数字,那些不相信能记住的都忘记了。信心对人的记忆有深远的影响,不但在记数字上面,在各样的事情上面都是如此。

最近我训练我们的同工开始刮大白,我所看到的一种光景让我非常地诧异。我很快就掌握了刮大白和抹石膏粉的技巧,我的膀臂挥起来的样子,就像是视频里刮大白的样子。把膀子挥远了,刮起来的样子很舒服,后来我爱上了刮大白。因为我每次把墙刮平的时候,我就站在那里享受自己刮平的果效。但是我看我的同工刮的时候,哪里不平补一下,动作看上去非常地不舒坦。我就给他们做示范,是这样刮,这样弄,但是我看到他做起来的时候,还是一点一点地抹,我就非常地想知道为什么会这样。 后来我发现不是他态度的问题,因为他是一个态度非常好的弟兄,什么问题也没有。但是后来他找到问题的关键,因为我们两个一直商量问题的关键,就是他在做的时候不相信自己会把墙抹平。我终于找到事情的关键,原来信心在我们做所有事情的过程当中显得这么重要。当他开始恢复信心,恢复相信自己能够把墙刮平的时候,他把墙刮平了,他也开始跟我一样享受刮大白的感觉。有兴趣的话我真的很想建立一支刮大白的同工团队,刮遍新加坡。

把墙刮平是一个信心的外在的彰显,这件事开始让我更有信心在教会当中推动一件事,让我们所有的弟兄姐妹都做一些可以操练信心的事。当然刮大白是一个非常直接的操练信心的事,因为你刮完了之后墙是平的就是平的,不是平的就不是平的。你可以在教会里喊哈利路亚,喊得很久很大声,但是那不需要信心。 后来我真的找到了《圣经》的根据,《圣经》让我看到使徒保罗是一个支帐篷的人。他可以做很多的事情,结果没有耽误他建立教会,你不觉得很奇怪吗?那些从来什么事情也不做,只在圣殿里做动嘴巴的事情,后来很多的人在耶稣年间那些人变成了法利赛人。今天我们要确切地知道,你的信心要透过你的嘴巴、透过你的手操练出来,就要做事情。

我从小有一个性格,我又在吹我自己了,大家忍耐我一下。我就一直很想知道我为什么学习这么好,因为我相信我自己都能做好,我在做的时候我就相信我可以做好。我终于找到我自己一路走过来,我怎么会是这样的一个人,原来我从小就很愿意做一个有信心的人。那我建立教会,在我的信心里面不管环境多么苛刻,多么艰难,建立一个荣耀的教会,从来没有改变过,我这样的信心,也从来也没有熄灭掉。 我读《圣经》我就相信我会把神的话读明白,然后真的会读明白。我做工程师我相信我会做一个非常优秀的工程师。我读书我相信我会把书读明白,有一次,我读那个书名叫《三位一体的真神》这本书。我读完了,我怎么也读不明白,后来我总结出来,因为作者根本就没写明白。我不太相信我读不明白,因为我里面有这样的信心,所以我学习都学得非常好。 我做教育,我是希望做一个响当当的教育学家;做管理,我想做一个最好的管理者;做教会我想一个建立一个最好的教会;做医治释放,做一个最好的医治释放,非常像耶稣一样的医治释放;做生意,做到非常昌盛的生意;做装修就做非常好的装修;做设计,我都成了小空间使用的设计专家。我真的了解小空间怎样能够提升它的利用率;日本人非常厉害,我经常看那些视频是空间的使用,非常的厉害。我就抽象出来一个字母叫做L,锤子的L和平面的L,当然今天不是在讲装修,不是在讲空间利用。

我开始讲英文的时候,我来到新加坡根本不会讲英文,但是今天我不觉得我的英文会输给很多人,包括新加坡人。最近我在准备开动一个用英文讲道,用英文查经。这是稍微有点挑战,但是我相信我可以做得好,我相信我会越做越好。有一些姐妹说:“又做这个又做那个,好像有点乱。”但没关系,在我的信心的里面,那些乱象已经要被除去了。 今天再吹个牛,现在我们写的书,我算了一下,已经有38本了。我整了这么多。真的是非常非常地有效,而且这些书里面有很多的原创性,很多的观点不是在网上抄来的,是神启示给我们的。**我们认识神要不断地超越自己,要相信自己会超越自己**,你一定会在你现在的基础上,再往前迈一步、迈两步、迈三步,这是我们的信心。 有信心就会反应在我们做事的耐心和坚持上。有耐心和坚持,我们就会在神的里面不断地被更新。**我们的信心的反应就会有耐心,有坚持和付代价**,那我付的代价是非常地重,在很多的牧师当中我可以这么说,我是一个很付代价的人,我做事情非常非常地用功,很多人也不否认这件事情,就算他们是牧师,他们也不否认我做事情,真的是很用功,因为在我里面有信心,有得胜的信心。 神要的就是一个不断更新的器皿,神不要旧皮袋,神要用新酒充满你这个新皮袋,**新皮袋就是你里面有一个得胜的信心,不断地被提升,不断地被更新**,预备自己无论如何都做个新皮袋。其实过去这些年,想起来有点儿自怜,但是我很开心,我非常地开心,因为做一做就开始升职,升职了,再做一做又升职,每一次升职以后都面对新的挑战,新的问题,新的扩张,很辛苦的。 所以过去这些年很少两点之前睡觉是有原因的,因为你做做做就又升职了,升职了还刚刚做熟练了,又开始升职了,刚刚做熟练了,每一次都是一个扩张的局面。也就说我们要不断地扩张,开始成为一个新皮袋,新酒新皮袋。 今天大家不要以为我们教会会成为一个很传统的教会。因为传统就会保持到很久很久很久,然后变成很旧很旧很旧的法利赛人。你说,哎呀!这么走太累了,你可以找一个安逸的地方,那绝对不是我们这里。你要想在我们当中做一个基督徒,你也不要想得着安逸,不要想过小日子。在这里做不到,你只能在我们当中被不断地被更新。只要你愿意,我们就会看见你得胜的果效,就会看见你信心的操练。我们看今天的经文。

主耶稣,愿你把我们建立在你的磐石上,让我们站在你信仰的根基上被建造起来,成为一个得胜的教会。主耶稣我们知道你的心意是建立得胜的教会,我们就带着信心来到你里面。主耶稣,求你使用我们照着我们心中所相信的来成就你的心意。我们相信我们一定可以与你同工,建造得胜的教会,成为你神殿中的柱子,你也将你的名字,就是你的新名写在我们的上面,我们的名字和你的名字要连在一起。主耶稣,你要在这个末后的时代兴起我们,建造你得胜的教会,迎接你的再来,奉耶稣基督的名祷告,阿们!

得胜的教会是我们不断传递的观念。神的心意在新约《圣经》里是教会。如果把新约《圣经》总结出一个主题,就是教会,那是什么样的教会呢?是一个荣耀得胜的教会。如果在《启示录》里面你仔细去读,你从《启示录》的第二章第一节一直读到第三章最后一节,他都是不断地重复一句话,得胜的教会怎么怎么样,得胜的教会怎么怎么样?然后:圣灵向众教会所说的话,有耳可听的就应当听。 大家不要以为神看见你建了一个不得胜的教会,你说这是神在我们身上的计划。不,这不是神在你身上的计划!神在你身上的计划是建立得胜的教会,但是**建立得胜的教会,你的里面必须要有一个得胜的盼望和得胜的信心**。如果你里面没有一个得胜的信心,我就是这样,那我建立教会就是这样,这就是神的心意。这真是神的计划吗?如果真的是这样,《圣经》就不会这么说,圣灵向众教会所说的话有耳的就应当听。 耶稣说:“我实在告诉你们:人为 神的国撇下房屋,或是妻子、弟兄、父母、儿女,没有在今世不得百倍,在来世不得永生的。”(《路加福音》18:29-30)

很多人跟我们读的是同样的《圣经》,同样的经文。但是否里面有愿意建立得胜教会的意愿和信心呢?有的人一听我讲的话就说:就你行!其实我真的不行。但是我相信我的神会使用我。我在不得胜的时候我相信那不是神的心意。我在被魔鬼欺负的很惨的时候我知道神的心意是带领我得胜。我就继续紧紧地,凭着奄奄一息的信心也要抓住神。 我知道《圣经》告诉我们的话,我听见了,有耳的就应当听。但是我听见了以后我选择得胜的信心。我们在做医治释放的时候弟兄姐妹你们知道吗?我里面有的是一种倔强的信心,而不是倔强的不信。如果一个人不得医治,我的弟兄姐妹就都会传承一种性格:**就是会一直服侍,直到得胜为止。** **关键就是要照着神的启示建造教会。**最近我们在做医治释放的培训,我们医治释放的培训团队出了一个有趣的题目:建立得胜的教会关键是什么?结果出来了很多答案。有的人答:克服己身。那不是我曾讲过的。**建立得胜的教会关键是照着神的启示建造**,你不照着神的启示建造教会就不可能成为得胜的教会的。如果你照着神的启示建造你一定会成为得胜荣耀的教会。在建立得胜教会的过程当中,有很多人对自己里面的不信找了很多借口。直到今天我心里真的很诧异,怎么这么多不合乎《圣经》的东西在教会里头流传?

前几天我见到一个非常可爱的弟兄。我问他:“你现在在哪个教会呢?”弟兄说:“我在一个某某教会。”我说:“那你现在怎么样啊?”弟兄说:“我们教会可好了,我们教会很追求平衡,家庭、工作、教会三者都要平衡。我想:我怎么没有在《圣经》里读到这种平衡的观念呢?我就从前到后的地翻阅《圣经》我都没有找到。 但是我找到了一件事:你要尽心、尽性、尽力爱主你的神。哪里里讲了你要尽心、尽性、尽力在教会、家庭、工作当中平衡?能平衡吗?神哪里有说过平衡啊?神从来没有说:你要爱我,也爱你的太太跟爱我一样,有这样的话吗?只有:你要尽心、尽性、尽力爱主你的神。要你为神放下你的一切,撇下父母、儿女、妻子、弟兄、房屋、田产。什么意思啊?**没有任何一个东西可以高举到跟神一样,只有神配坐在宝座上在我们的生命当中做主**。 你不能说:主耶稣你是我的主,我老婆也是我的主。你不能这样做的,你只有一个主就是我们的神。**我们必须有一个很清楚的知道,我们的命定就是建立神荣耀的教会。**如果教会和你的工作和你的家庭平衡,你那什么东西可以建造神荣耀的教会呢?

教会需要招你来打属灵的仗的时候你说:哎呀!我还有这个那个呢!耶稣说:你来跟随我吧!你说:容我回去埋葬我的父亲。耶稣说:让死人埋葬死人吧!但是你要来跟从我。哪一个不是撇下自己的一切呢?《圣经》里头有教导我们平衡吗?如果要平衡,就在神那里尽心,尽性,尽力建造祂荣耀的教会。**你若追求神的国,其他的东西都回加给你。** 有一些人对我说:你能不能为我的生意祷告?我说:“我为什么要为你的生意祷告?”“因为我的生意很需要祷告。”我想了想,你若寻求神的国,这一切东西都要加给你们。在我们一生当中,你如果稍微懂得一点哲学、管理学,你一定要把那最重要的抓住啊!人一生当中常常搞平衡,你是抓不住什么重要的东西的。**抓住了最重要的东西,然后再抓住第二重要的,再抓住第三重要的,你就所有的一切都得着。如果你把那重要的和不重要的放在一起,一起来抓,你这一辈子会一事无成的!** 有一本书叫《最重要的只有一件》,最重要的事只有一件,你抓住了最重要的一件其他的事情会不会得着?会的。如果你抓住了神的国撇下了世上很多东西,就没有不在今生得百倍的,来世永生的。大家都要知道神的心意是得胜的教会。如果你不在得胜的教会里完全地摆上自己,你追求一个平衡你没有办法平衡。你拿什么东西跟神的国平衡呢?你的生意跟神的国平衡,你的生意会受咒诅。你的家庭跟神的国平衡,你的家庭会受咒诅。你自己的钱财跟神的国平衡,你的钱财要受咒诅。今天我们要知道我们的神才是我们的一切。神的心意不是一个教会,而是一个得胜的教会,**我们的命定就是建立得胜的教会。**

这殿后来的荣耀必大过选前的荣耀。(《哈该书》2:9) 信就是所望之事的实底,是未见之事的确据。(《希伯来书》11:1) 刚才我跟大家分享,回去看我们原来的地方,走过原来的路,有心酸,有泪水,有挫败,但是我里面有得胜的信心。我知道总有一天神荣耀的教会要在我们当中被建立起来。今天你所看见的仅仅是一点点,将来的得胜和荣耀要大过现在的。后来的荣耀要大过先前的。其实那个时候我告诉大家,我里面什么感觉也没有的。

我在很多的时候遇到过一些基督徒,其中有一个基督徒是我的好朋友。他给人祷告的时候,如果汗毛只要一立起来的时候,他给人一祷告病就好了。如果汗毛不立起来他就不为别人祷告。他说:“我要等我汗毛立起来的时候我才为别人祷告。”但是我的汗毛从来不立起来的,什么感觉也没有的,好像神也没有拣选我。 有些人问我:神真的拣选你了吗?我说:神拣选我了。他们说:你怎么知道呢?我说:我相信啊!我弱弱的,真的看起来不像啊!一点也不像啊!但是我仍然相信神已经拣选了我。我仍然相信神要透过我建立祂得胜的教会,我是神所使用的器皿。后来我在《圣经》里找到关键的依据:雅各等待神七十多年,什么感觉也没有,他只有信心。从一个次子得着长子的名份,得着他爷爷亚伯拉罕,父亲以撒跟神所立的约。他有什么凭据呢?没有的。凭据就是信心本身啊! **凭据就是信心本身**。信心是所望之事的实底,未见之事的确据。所以你看看你自己可能跟我当时看我自己一样,怎么看都不像。但是没有关系,你里面要有信心,我一定可以建立一个得胜的小组,我一定可以建立一个得胜的牧区。我一定可以把牧养搞好。因为我相信!**信心就是得胜的确据**。我们里面有得胜的信心,你就可以被神所使用。

如果数算过去的日子,有多少被魔鬼攻击的日子,有多少得胜的日子?有多少眼看着就坚持不下去的日子?但是是我的信心把我带出来,使我走出来的。人家问我:你为什么相信?我说:我就是相信,我喜欢相信,我不相信我活不下去啊!我什么时候不相信我什么时候就老难受了!那难受得真的是受不了,但是我相信的时候心里就会得安慰。信心太奇妙,所以我在所有的讲道里都提到信心。如果你听到我讲的道是same old thing(老调重弹),但信心是永远到永远,都要讲信心! 我们的神在天上人间所要寻找的就是有信心的人,寻找了祂就当做宝贝,变卖一切所有的把你买下来,让你在神的殿中做柱子,让你的名和神的名联系起来。有的人说:“哎呀,亚伯拉罕有几个呀?以撒有几个呀?雅各有几个?约瑟有几个?就一个啊。”我说:“不,还有一个就是我,亚伯拉罕的神、以撒的神、雅各的神,然后还有我的神。我的名字会跟神的名字连在一起。” 站在我们过去走过的路,再往前去看的时候充满挑战。我不知道我能不能做得到,但是我相信我能够做得到。我们要扩张我们讲英文的服侍,要扩张我们当中讲韩语的服侍,扩张我们当中讲粤语的服侍。有人会问:“你真的行吗?”我不行,但我的神行,我相信我可以做得到。我做不到没关系,我的神一定会使我得胜,我的神一定会使我做得到!

提到“宗教改革”这四个字,其实这四个字听起来太大了。是不是?前几天我跟一个新加坡的朋友说我要做宗教改革,他说:“啊?太过分了吧你?”我问:“过分吗?”他说:“宗教改革那是马丁路德做的事!”没关系,我们不是一直都在做吗?其实神的真理从马丁路德改教开始就不断地在恢复,每一个年代都有宗教改革的成分,每一个年代都有神的真理不断恢复的成分,这有什么好惊讶的? 我看自己一点也不像搞宗教改革的人,但是没关系,我里面有信心。摆在我们面前的困难永远比我们强大,我们所面对的永远像一个巨人。但是没关系,我们里面有神,神会使巨人的心在我们面前消化,因为我们要得那地为业。那些巨人看我们像蚂蚱,我们看那些巨人再看自己也像蚂蚱。但是没关系,**我们这些蚂蚱要把这些巨人啃掉,就是蚂蚁也要一口一口地把大象啃掉,那就是信心**!我们就是要做看起来、听起来都太大的事,我们喜欢这样做,我们喜欢找一个巨人来把他干掉。 为什么会这样做呢?不是因为别的,是因为我们里面有一个荣耀的盼望,这荣耀的盼望正是神的心意,神正在找建立得胜教会的人,神正在寻找有得胜信心的人,成为可以被祂使用的器皿。我就跟神说:“神,这事太难了,但是在我不能,在你凡事都能!神啊,我在这里,请你使用我。神啊,我愿意为你摆上一切。神啊,这是我荣耀的命定,我死都要得着,我为此而生,也为此而来到世上。你是使我得胜的神。我的信心都在神的上面,神你必看我为宝贵,你必将你的名字和我的名字连在一起,你也必将你的名字刻在我们的身上,我们必要在这个时代被兴起来,成为清除教会中错误观念的一群得胜的人!” 不是感觉,是相信,就是相信,就是喜欢相信。**有感觉的时候信,没感觉的时候也信,汗毛立起来服侍,汗毛没立起来也仍然服侍——这就是我们!**我们就是一群建立神得胜教会的弟兄姐妹,我们就是一群建立得胜教会的精兵,好在这个时代,让神的荣耀透过我们彰显出来。做这样的事需要胆量啊!你要想成为被神使用的器皿,你必须拥有胆量!

**信心就是胆量**,好些年前我在神面前做了一个梦,是睁着眼睛做的白日梦。有的人问我:“人家约瑟有梦,约瑟可以做梦。我又没做这样的梦那怎么办呢?”我说:“你不会睁着眼睛做一个梦吗?”睁着眼睛脑袋里想一个就是梦,我编一个梦不行吗?在好些年前我就睁着眼睛编了一个梦,编了一个荣耀教会的梦,那是挺有胆量的选择。 **胆怯不是信心**,凡是胆怯的,到《启示录》里所写的都要丢到硫磺火湖里。胆怯绝对不是信心,要有胆量。迦勒、约书亚看见迦南地里面巨人的时候,看到的是什么?也是看自己像蚂蚱,巨人看约书亚和迦勒也是看他们像蚂蚱。不是因为他自己怎么样,看他自己手里的枪,再看看巨人手里的枪,武器比人家细一大截、短一大截,但是我们的神根本就不在乎枪、不在乎刀、不在乎你身上的肌肉,也根本不在乎你胯下的马。我们读古代小说,胯下赤兔马,手中亮银枪,很厉害。但我们的神根本不靠这些,**我们的神只给你一块小石子,你就可以干掉一个巨人**。不需要盔甲,不需要长矛,需要的是一粒小石头而已!我们胯下没有赤兔马,我们什么也没有,我们只有神赐给我们的一个胆量就可以面对巨人,巨人必在我们面前全然倒下。

**胆量是一个选择,如果一个人拥有不怕死的胆量,他一定会得胜**。我们为什么会害怕呢?因为我们在乎太多的东西。昨天晚上我在教导一个姐妹,我让她不要在乎这么多的东西。为什么要在乎这么多的东西呢?在乎来在乎去,有什么好处呢?以前她老公活着的时候出轨,她一气就把耳朵气聋了,直到今天还戴着助听器,脑袋里想的常常是负面的东西。昨天我激励了她一把,激励她拥有信心,选择信心的道路。因为我们照着条件,照着现实,照着实际的状况,我们没有办法得胜。因为按条件我们都是卑微的人,我们看起来真的不是社会的高层,我们都会在社会的基层下面。按着肉身尊贵的不多,有能力的也不多,但是我们都是有信心的人。 昨天有个姐妹,我跟她谈了几句话,因为她投资损失很惨重。她借了5万块钱,投完资就剩3万块钱了。人家借5万块钱,投资5万加5万变10万,5千加5千变1万,但是她的变成3万,炒股炒期货赔了很多。我直接跟她说:“你里面的素质不行,你里面没有信心,你里面没有胆量。”她是凭着胆怯做决定,她问我要不要继续做下去?我说:“你可以选择继续做下去,你也可以不用听我的话,但是你必须操练你里面的素质,成为一个有信心的人。”当然我不鼓励大家投机,但是我们大家里面要有投资的理念,要有胆量,要有信心。

你知道人为什么会没有信心?因为人在乎的东西太多。你如果在乎钱,你没有办法做投资,**爱钱的人基本上不会成为富有的人,爱神的人才能**。爱钱的人,钱会成为你的捆绑,你怎么可能投资得好?你看有一些投资经理人,拿别人的钱投资他可厉害了,拿自己的钱投资就不厉害了。拿自己钱投资,点键盘的时候手就直发抖,拿别人的钱投资很顺当,反正赔钱也不是他赔,但投自己钱的时候都赔了,因为心理素质不好。人里面常常会有底线,今天要把底线除掉。如果你有底线,魔鬼就常常破坏你的底线,一碰没底线就抓狂,就会崩溃。 **在我里面只有一件事就是信心,没有底线。魔鬼没有东西可碰,在我里面的就是神,就是命定。什么也不能挪走我的命定,没有什么东西可以碰我们的神。我就尽心,尽性,尽力爱主我们的神**。神为什么不让我们爱父母过于爱神?因为你爱父母过于爱神,魔鬼就去碰你的父母,那是害他们啊。如果你爱儿女过于爱神,魔鬼一定碰你的儿女。什么东西使你崩溃,魔鬼就很清楚的要来碰。 今天要除去我们里面的底线,**你的底线代表你属灵的高度**。属灵的高度不够,就有解决不完的问题。如果你属灵的高度足够,你的底线就会变成神。**你的高度是解决你问题的关键**。如果你的高度不够,你的问题永远解决不好。今天我们都要登耶和华的山,不断提高属灵的高度,进雅各神的殿,直到来到神的殿中。

**你想要得胜,就必须除去底线,除去使我们胆怯的东西,必须提高我们的高度,看透事物的本质。胆量的操练是靠做事来操练的**。主耶稣讲了一个比喻:有人拿了一千两,有人拿了两千两,有人拿了五千两,有胆量的拿两千两投资了,有人拿五千两投资了,胆怯的拿一千两埋在地里。钱在哪里,人的心也在哪里。你看重的是什么,你的心也在那里。 做事、做生意、投资都是信心的操练。做生意很需要信心的。打工不太需要信心,打工需要什么?每天上班下班,你不需要每天为你员工的薪水发愁,你只在乎到了时间,你的老板会不会把薪水打到你的账户上,你不太需要信心。如果你常常在那里日复一日,年复一年,不操练信心,难道神不会对付你吗?神一定要对付你。你需要从安舒的环境中走出来,进到操练信心的里面。只有信心的操练才能够讨神的喜悦。我们的教会是一个在做事当中操练信心的教会。

投资是非常操练信心的。前一段时间,我带着弟兄姐妹们去投资。找到一个鸟不拉屎的地方去投资,我天天在祷告神,如果价钱不涨咋办呢?因为他们的决定是我做的。如果我做了错误的决定,他们就会怪罪于我,我真的很怕被他们怪罪的。之后涨价了,这是信心撑过来的。 为什么神用一千两、二千两、五千两银子来做比喻呢?你手里有两千块钱,你要不要投资?你手里有五千块钱,你要不要投资?《圣经》里这几个人都是拿去做生意,他们有的赚了五千两,有的赚了二千两。原来《圣经》里神用钱做比喻的地方非常多,占了30%。因为钱财在哪里,你看重的东西在哪里,你的心就在哪里。 你的心在哪里,哪里就是操练信心的地方。今天我鼓励我们当中的弟兄姐妹,都要拿出信心来,不断地操练。有两千块钱的,拿出两千块钱来,有五千块钱的做五千块钱的生意,有五万块钱的做五万块钱的生意。你说我只有一个铜板,那就做一个铜板的生意。我听说有一个人用一个溜溜球换了一个贝壳,再换了一个大的贝壳,然后又换一头羊又换一头牛……换着换着就换了一栋房子。但有的人一栋房子换了一头牛,再换了一头羊……到最后只换得了一个玻璃球。

**这个世界信靠神的人,开始建立得胜的教会,出去做事情,神一定会祝福你**。为什么五千两,两千两银子会赚呢?因为那是神使他赚的。我今天感受到神的同在有多好,只用是我手碰到的都兴旺,因为我是一个建立神得胜教会的人。我正在想,我要不要带我的同工做点什么生意,我不想花大把大把的时间,你不要以为我是那种花八个小时不够,再花十多个小时,然后就不睡觉得癌症那种做工方式,我一天只花三四个小时做这些事。我想让我们的员工是一个操练信心的人,然后他服侍的弟兄姐妹,在职场上也都跟他一样,能够让人蒙祝福。 **在你面对困难的时候,要面对困难解决困难,这是得胜的信心**。你遇到困难,是选择退下去,还是选择面对混乱模糊的状态当中寻找答案?收集信息,消化、了解、掌握信息,找到解决问题的答案,使一个杂乱无章的东西变成有秩序的东西,那就是神的形象。 过去我常常听人说,救恩是人死了上天堂。我查遍整本《圣经》,发现**原来救恩是我们活着的时候恢复神荣耀的形象**。当然,这是宗教改革的一部分。前几天,有个同工拿出雷军讲英文的视频给我看,我笑得前仰后翻的,很搞笑。雷军去印度推销他的小米手机,他意思说,你喜欢这小米4手机吗?英文说:“Do you like me,four?”(你喜欢我吗?)我哈哈大笑。但是雷军里面有得胜的信心,他真的敢开口说,真的很敢说。

雷军的英文跟我刚来新加坡的时候差不多。他说“Hello,everyone,are you OK?”其实英文的“Are you OK?”是形容一个人身体有病了,问人家状态还好吗?这有点词不达意,但是这是一个有信心的人,很了不起,我佩服得五体投地。他能够把小米公司建成现在的规模,那是一个有信心的人啊!有信心的人说不好英文也敢说。结果非常好,他这样的信心带来奇特的果效,有什么东西比这市场营销做得还好呢? 结果雷军在场说的这些英文被人变成一首歌挂到网上,现在成了一首非常火爆的歌《Are you OK》,真的非常棒!你知道我们当中的一些弟兄姐妹刚开始创作命定音乐的时候,啥也不懂,也创造出来了,这就是信心!**信心的结果是神迹**,什么是神迹?就是原本是不可能的事情变成可能,你喜欢把不可能的事情变成可能呢?还是把可能的事情变成不可能呢?我告诉你答案,把本来不可能的事情变成可能,那是非常令人享受的事情。 所以有信心的人做牧师是一种非常享受做牧师的感觉,有信心的人做老师会非常享受做老师的感觉,有信心的人做律师或者做什么师都是非常享受的感觉。但是没有信心的人那可就要命了,雷军的成功不是因为他是雷军,是因为他是一个有信心的人,你们今天去看那些商界里成功的人士,不管他是什么宗教信仰,你在他身上一定会找到信心的成分,做生意、投资没有信心是走不下去的,如果你是一个有信心的人,你在这个世代在神的眼里就是一个非常重要的宝贝,遇到了困难看起来不可能,但是都可以冲过去啊!

操练你的信心,可能一开始你的信心只能做一个火柴杆,谈不上柱子,**但是如果你的信心像芥菜种子,是百种当中最小的你就可以移山呐!因为信心是会涨的,你在不断的操练当中,就把火柴杆操练成木头棍,从木头棍变成一个木头棒子!木头棒变成一个柱子,一个柱子变成神手中所使用的一个殿中贵重的材料,用来做柱石。** 将来我有一个期盼,神的名字会刻在我们身上,WF弟兄的神、YN姐妹的神、ML姐妹的神、LL姐妹的神、小太阳姐妹的神,我们的神!你的神就是我们的神,你在哪里我就在哪里!听见了没有,这话讲得多铿锵有力啊!神的名字要常常被人知道,当人们因着你知道我们的神的时候,你的名字就跟我们的神的名字就连在了一起,我们的神的名字就会刻在我们身上。 如果WF弟兄服侍一些弟兄姐妹,这些弟兄姐妹就会说WF老师的神真棒!怎么样?就是亚伯拉罕的神、以撒、雅各的神,后来就变成了你的神和我的神,看看我们自己好像不太像,但是没有关系,我们会一直坚持到神荣耀的教会被建立起来,我们在教会当中做领袖、做柱子,神的名字跟你的名字紧紧的地连在一起。

宗教改革这个词有点大,看起来我们也不太像,但是不要紧我们就敢说啊,说一说我们就成就了啊,所以常常要说,我们今天吹的不是牛,是得胜的教会,训练有素的基督徒,今天弟兄姐妹不要害怕被对付,**你要在神的殿中做柱子,你是扛得住所有压力的,压力在你面前是不能胜过你的。 压力算什么?我们生来就是支撑压力的柱子啊!** 教会大了没关系,有我这根柱子撑着,你可能会说这牛皮是不是吹大了?这还大啊?我里面的信心比这大多了!我们就开始被训练,在信心上不断地被操练!在医治释放上不断地操练,在神的国度属灵争战上不断地操练,不管对手有多么凶猛、多么邪恶、多么强大,牠们在神面前永远不能站立得住,我们的神一定会使我们得胜!

今天我们已经写了38本书,把我们从神那里所领受的启示都写在书里,直到今天我问过一些其他教会我的基督徒朋友,他们在教会中查《创世记》的情况,他们都表示全部跳过去,不敢讲命定,也不知道那是讲命定的,但这些我们都在书里清清楚楚地写着,他玛是为了命定假装做妓女,冒着生命的危险,也要得着命定,看起来怎么都不像,但是她却成了耶稣基督家谱里非常有名的人,犹大从他玛生谢拉和法勒斯,凡是传福音的地方都传颂着他玛的名字,凡是读《马太福音》的人都会读到犹大从他玛生谢拉和法勒斯这段话。 根本就不在乎,冲破条条框框,就是宗教改革这个名词我们也冲过去!我们也在所不惜,就算别人给我们身上扣上很多奇怪的帽子我们也没关系戴上,因为我们知道那是神的心意,神的真理要不断地被恢复,神在1900年开始恢复圣灵充满的真理,后来四十年代,五十年代又透过一个美国的生意人建立了商人团契,他的名字也不断地被传颂,新加坡的商人基督徒团契曾经在宗教改革上扮演一个很重要的角色,推动了圣灵充满,推动了很多教会不曾碰的东西,我认识很多商人团契里的朋友,都是基督徒是很爱主的弟兄姐妹们,但是今天神要兴起我们来传递不断被更新的信息,《圣经》的真理正在不断地被恢复!认识神是无止尽的,不要以为我们过去认识神已经认识够了,不够永远都不够!

永远需要宗教改革,不是马丁路德完成了宗教改革,是宗教改革从马丁路德开始一直在持续,约翰·卫斯理搞了一些改革,约翰·加尔文也搞了一些改革,后来的伊凡·罗伯斯也搞了改革,后来很多很多的人都在改革当中被神大大地使用,今天我们要不断地把《圣经》的真理重新挖掘出来,《圣经》的真理是一个无限的宝藏,我们仅仅只是挖到了一点点,但是今天我们要继续不断地挖掘,这就叫做改革。 中国改革开放,成就了今天繁荣富强的中国,今天的改革要使教会重新恢复活力,恢复生气,把社会上看起来不起眼的,可能是社会的渣子,社会的负担,都要转化成社会的人才,**然后用真理来装备他们,用信心来武装他们,让他们里面的信心重新被眺旺起来!让神的能力透过他的生命重新被彰显出来,他的生命要重新彰显出神造他的时候荣耀的形象,魔鬼所盗取的都要加倍的偿还!** 从今以后,我们神的名字跟我们的名字永远连在一起,我们就是神所使用的器皿,成为这个世代的祝福,阿们!
