General Service in Malang, July 21, 2013 (Sunday Morning)
CHILD
SUBMISSION SERVICE
The
baby of Jesus is born in a pen to show the importance of a
shepherding.
- Jesus
as the Savior.
Matthew
1:21
1:21 And
she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name Jesus, for
He will save His people from their sins."
- Jesus
as the Shepherd.
Matthew
2:6
2:6 'But
you, Bethlehem, in
the land of Judah,
Are not the least among the rulers of Judah;For
out of you shall come a Ruler
Who will shepherd My people
Israel.'"
- Jesus
as the Heavenly bridegroom and King of kings.
Matthew
2:2
2:2
saying, "Where
is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star
in the East and have come to worship Him."
A
child must be brought to the shepherding pen to be able to experience
the ministry of Jesus as the Savior, Shepherd, and King of kings.
Jesus as the Savior will set us free from sins and justify our
life. Jesus as the Shepherd will care our body, spirit, and soul. He
will also lead us to a beautiful future until we enter the New
Jerusalem. Jesus as the Heavenly bridegroom will wash and renew us,
until we are as perfect as Him and become the heavenly bride who is
ready to welcome His second coming on the glorious clouds.
GENERAL
SERVICE
Peace
and grace in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Matthew
28:20b
28:20 ...
and lo, I am with
you always, even
to the end of the age." Amen.
It
is about the accompaniment of God to the end of the age. It means
that God accompanies us starting from now, until His second coming,
even until we sit together with Him on the throne of New Jerusalem.
Revelation
3:21
3:21 To
him who overcomes I will grant to sit with Me on My throne, as I also
overcame and sat down with My Father on His throne.
The
church of the Laodiceans who is in the worst condition can be lifted
up by God. Whatever our condition is, He is able to lift up our life.
We must struggle to win together with Him.
Proverbs
21:31
21:31 The
horse is
prepared for the day of battle,
But deliverance is
of the Lord.
The
hand of God determines the deliverance. All things in this world are
only tool to get the deliverance, but the hand of God determines it.
If we want to win until we sit on His throne, we must always be
within the hand of God.
Revelation
1:16
1:16 He
had in His right hand seven stars, out of His mouth went a sharp
two-edged sword, and His countenance was
like the sun shining in its strength.
To
live within the strong hand of God, we must become as the stars.
Thus, we will always win until we sit on His throne forever.
Who
is the star?
Revelation
1:20
1:20 The
mystery of the seven stars which you saw in My right hand, and the
seven golden lampstands: The seven stars are the angels of the seven
churches, and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven
churches.
The
star is the angel of the congregation or a pastor who shines and
becomes a pattern for the congregation, especially example in faith.
If a pastor lives in righteousness and has the true teaching Word,
true marriage, and true ministry, he becomes the star or example in
faith for the congregation. If a pastor becomes a star, the
congregation will be in a bright light.
Generally,
the star also refers to the servant of God, priests and kings, who is
used by God to glorify Him and become His witness.
Do
not grieve and shame God as people did during the days of Noah. The
consequence is the judgment of God.
Star
is the descendant of Abraham. Actually there are three types of the
descendant of Abraham as follows.
- As
the dust of the earth.
Genesis
13:16
13:16
And I will make
your descendants as the dust of the earth; so that if a man could
number the dust of the earth, then
your descendants also could be numbered.
The
dust of the earth refers to Christian lives who are only satisfied
with carnal matters, and they even sacrifice spiritual matters.
The
practices are as follows.
- Ministering
God for getting carnal matters, even stealing the possession of
God, that is the tithe and special offering.
- Being
unfaithful and leaving the ministry for looking for carnal matters.
It is as Esau who sacrifices spiritual matters to get the carnal
ones. He gets what he wants but he weeps forever.
Genesis
3:14
3:14 So
the Lord God said to the serpent:
"Because you
have done this,
You are
cursed more than all cattle,
And more than every beast of the
field;
On your belly you shall go, And you shall eat dust
All
the days of your life.
The
servant of God as the dust of the earth will be eaten by the
serpent.
- As
the sand on the seashore.
Genesis
22:17
22:17
blessing I will
bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the
stars of the heaven and as the sand which is
on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of
their enemies.
Matthew
7:26-27
7:26
"But everyone
who hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do them, will be like
a foolish man who built his house on the sand:
7:27
and the rain
descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that
house; and it fell. And great was its fall."
The
sand refers to Christian lives who like to hear the true teaching
Word but do not practice it, so they do not endure the temptation.
- The
rain descended from above refers to Satan with evil and unclean
spirit that makes the children of God fall in sins concerning
eating-drinking and marrying-being given in marriage.
- The
winds refer to false prophet with the spirit of lies and false
teaching. The consequence is lying, leaving the true teaching Word,
and following false teaching.
- The
floods refer to antichrist with the power of mammon or money, that
makes us stingy and greedy and become a thief as Judas.
The
consequence is the spiritual house of our life falls. The fall is
great and it cannot be built anymore.
- As
the stars of the heaven.
Genesis
22:17
22:17
blessing I will
bless you, and multiplying I will multiply your descendants as the
stars of the heaven and as the sand which is
on the seashore; and your descendants shall possess the gate of
their enemies.
The
stars refer to Christian lives who become light and blessing to the
others. One who is as the stars will not become a burden to the
others.
But we must be careful because the stars encounter the
tail of the dragon.
Revelation
12:4
12:4 His
tail drew a third of the stars of heaven and threw them to the
earth. And the dragon stood before the woman who was ready to give
birth, to devour her Child as soon as it was born.
The
process to become shining stars so we will not be thrown to the earth
is as follows.
- Working
out our salvation with fear and trembling.
Philippians
2:12
2:12
Therefore, my
beloved, as you have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but
now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear
and trembling;
In
the past, we were sinners. But we have been redeemed by the blood of
Jesus so we are saved and not judged. After being saved, we must
work out our salvation with fear and trembling, with faithfulness
and responsibility, as a branch abides on the true vine or as a
donkey bound to the true vine.
Genesis
49:11
49:11
Binding his
donkey to the vine,
And his donkey's colt to the choice vine,
He
washed his garments in wine, And his clothes in the blood of
grapes.
It
means we must be shepherded in the shepherding system. We are
obedient to the voice of the Shepherd and we persevere in three main
services as follows.
- Golden
Candlestick, that is perseverance in General Service as the drink
for the sheep.
- Table
of Showbread, that is perseverance in Bible Study Service with Holy
Communion as the food for the sheep.
- Golden
Altar of Incense, that is perseverance in Prayer Service as the
breathing of the sheep.
Thus,
we will experience spiritual growth. If our spiritual life grows,
the physical one will follow.
Job
39:5
39:5 "Who
set the wild donkey free?
Who loosed the bonds of the onager,
If
the Gentiles are not shepherded to the true teaching Word, they will
become onager, meaning entering the sins concerning eating-drinking
and marrying-being given in marriage.
The Gentiles who are
not shepherded will also become wild donkeys, which equal to insane
man at the tomb.
Mark
5:1-5
5:1 Then
they came to the other side of the sea, to the country of the
Gadarenes.
5:2
And when He had
come out of the boat, immediately there met Him out of the tombs a
man with an unclean spirit,
5:3
who had his
dwelling among the tombs; and no one could bind him, not even with
chains,
5:4
because he had
often been bound with shackles and chains. And the chains had been
pulled apart by him, and the shackles broken in pieces; neither
could anyone tame him.
5:5
And always, night
and day, he was in the mountains and in the tombs, crying out and
cutting himself with stones.
If
we are not shepherded, we will live at the tomb. It refers to the
place of the lengthening of the death, such as discotheque, movie
theatre, et cetera. But church can also become as the tomb. It is
when the church only magnifies carnal prosperity and entertainment
but does not present the true teaching Word.
Insane man also
cries out, meaning his words hurt the others. He also hurts himself
by cutting himself with stones. For example is husband who is rude
to his wife.
- Experiencing
intensive sanctification by the true teaching Word.
Philippians
2:14-15
2:14
Do all things
without complaining and disputing,
2:15
that you may
become blameless and harmless, children of God without fault in the
midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you shine as
lights in the world,
Sanctification
is started from within the heart that is the center of our spiritual
life.
Revelation
8:10-11
8:10
Then the third
angel sounded: And a great star fell from heaven, burning like a
torch, and it fell on a third of the rivers and on the springs of
water.
8:11
The name of the
star is Wormwood. A third of the waters became wormwood, and many
men died from the water, because it was made bitter.
We
must be sanctified from bitter heart, that is bitterness, envy, and
revenge. We must stay away from bitter lives, because they will
cause spiritual death.
The Gentiles must experience
sanctification of the heart from worry. Worry will make us
unrighteous and disobedient. It will also make us become a rebel.
The Gentiles must believe and put hope on God, so we can live in
righteousness and obedience.
Philippians
2:14
2:14 Do
all things without complaining and disputing,
The
sanctification is continued with sanctification of the lip, so we do
not complain, dispute, or lie, but we say only right word. Let "yes"
be "yes" and "no" be "no".
James
3:18,2
3:18
Now the fruit of
righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
3:2 For
we all stumble in many things. If anyone does not stumble in word,
he is
a perfect man, able also to bridle the whole body.
It
is until we do not stumble in word and only say "Alleluia".
Ephesians
4:11-12
4:11
And He Himself
gave some to be
apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and
teachers,
4:12
for the equipping
of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body
of Christ,
If
we are sanctified, God will give us the ministry and the gifts of
Holy Spirit in order to use us in the ministry of the building of
the perfect body of Christ.
- Holding
fast the true teaching Word that has become our life experience.
Philippians
2:16
2:16
holding fast the
word of life, so that I may rejoice in the day of Christ that I have
not run in vain or labored in vain.
Letting
go the sword of the Word means holding on the tail of the dragon and
one will be drawn and thrown to the earth.
Practicing the
Word equals to stretching out our hands to God, and He will also
stretch out His hands to us. We live in the merciful hands of God so
miracle happens, and we are renewed little by little until we become
the bride of God.
Esther means the star. Esther has no
father or mother. She lives with her relatives. She seems to have no
future, but she follows the process to become a star.
Esther
2:3
2:3 and
let the king appoint officers in all the provinces of his kingdom,
that they may gather all the beautiful young virgins to Shushan the
citadel, into the women's quarters, under the custody of Hegai the
king's eunuch, custodian of the women. And let beauty preparations
be given them.
Esther
is gathered into the women's quarters under the custody of Hegai.
This place refers to the sheepfold.
Esther
is also obedient. She holds fast the Word and only follows the voice
of the shepherd.
Ester
2:15
2:15 Now
when the turn came for Esther the daughter of Abihail the uncle of
Mordecai, who had taken her as his daughter, to go in to the king,
she requested nothing but what Hegai the king's eunuch, the
custodian of the women, advised. And Esther obtained favor in the
sight of all who saw her.
The
result is God holds out the golden scepter to Esther. It refers to
the grace and mercy of God.
We may do many efforts, but only the
golden scepter that decides.
The usefulness of the golden
scepter is as follows.
- Deciding
our death and life.
It means that our life in this world does
not depend on wealth, et cetera, but on the grace and mercy of God.
Only the merciful hands of God that can help to solve all our
problems and give us beautiful and good future.
- Taking
us to the New Jerusalem, to sit together with Jesus on His throne
forever.
Revelation
21:15
21:15
And he who
talked with me had a gold reed to measure the city, its gates, and
its wall.
God
blesses us.
