Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Revelation 22:5c, 3

22:5 ..., And they shall reign forever and ever.
22:3 And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him.

We become the priests and kings until reaching the heavenly kingdom. The inhabitants of the heavenly kingdom are the priests and kings. Therefore, we must be the priests and kings from now on in the world until reaching the New Jerusalem. Do not stop on the way or retire!

1 Peter 2:5 
2:5 you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

The duty of priests is being sent or used in the edification of the spiritual house or the perfect body of Christ.

Moses tried to serve to God through helping the Israelite before being sent by God because he felt great, clever, rich, powerful, able, having position, and so on. He used his fleshly mind, feelings, and ambition. Consequently, he failed totally and became a killer.

Therefore, we must wait for the will of God for sending us. Afterwards, we can minister to God until being successful and glorifying the name of God.

When is the time of being sent by God?

  1. When the king of Egypt died.
    Exodus2:23a 
    2:23 Now it happened in the process of time that the king of Egypt died...

    The time to be sent by God is when Satan does not control our life anymoreas follows:

    • We are set free from sins. We can live in righteousness and holiness.

    • We are not controlled by humanity or flesh, so we do not rely on the intelligence, riches, and power of the flesh. We feel small, powerless, and unable to do anything, so we are encouraged to fully surrender to God like the baby Moses crying to God.

    As a result, God sends us in the ministry for the edification of Christ's body and He works with His mercy and miracle.

    Do not commit the ministry which is not in line to the will, mercy, and goodness of God because it will fail and perish!

  2. When the Israelites were in the slavery and they cried out to God.

    Exodus2:23b
    2:23 .... Then the children of Israel groaned because of the bondage, and they cried out; and their cry came up to God because of the bondage.you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.

    It means the time when the sins and difficulties increase in the world for persecuting men until they cry out to God. At that time, God sends the priests and kings for ministering to Him and helping the men who are in sufferings. The examples are as follows:

    • Jonahwas sent by God to go to Nineveh when the sins there had come up before God.

      Jonah1:1-2
      1:1 Now the word of the LORD came to Jonah the son of Amittai, saying,
      1:2 "Arise, go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out against it; for their wickedness has come up before Me."


      Nevertheless, Jonah was not ready until he ran away to Tarshish. Consequently, God chastened him hard, but there was still His mercy, so Jonah could return to being sent by God to Nineveh. He could return to the will or mercy of God for glorifying Him and being glorified by Him.

    • God sends two angelsto Sodom and Gomorrah whose sins had come up before God.

      Genesis19:1, 12-14
      19:1 Now the two angelscame to Sodom in the evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot saw them, he rose to meet them, and he bowed himself with his face toward the ground.
      19:12 Then the men said to Lot, "Have you anyone else here? Son-in-law, your sons, your daughters, and whomever you have in the city -- take them out of this place!  
      19:13 "For we will destroy this place, because the outcry against them has grown great before the face of the LORD, and the LORD has sent us to destroy it."  
      19:14 So Lot went out and spoke to his sons-in-law, who had married his daughters, and said, "Get up, get out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city!" But to his sons-in-law he seemed to be joking.  


      The servants of God have been ready, but not the congregation, namely the sons-in-law who rejected the Word, until Sodom and Gomorrah became the lake of fire and brimstone or the perdition happened.

      Do not become disappointed or hopeless when God sends us, but we are rejected by the hard-hearted man! God keeps on accompanying us.

      It is better than being received by man, but rejected by God.

      Matthew7:21-23
      7:21 "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
      7:22 "Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?'
      7:23 "And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'


      Therefore, we must obey the Word and be sent for doing His will.

      John10:27-28
      10:27 "My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
      10:28 "And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish;
      neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.

      Our position is always in the hands of God's mercy and goodness which are great.

      As a result, there is the guarantee of assurance for the preservation of God physically and spiritually in the midst of the difficulties in the world.

      We have the victory over enemies. We do not fall in sins, but live in righteousness and holiness. God keeps on using us. We keep faithful and fervent in spirit in the service and ministry to Him until the end line. We keep on believing, hoping, and worshiping God.

      The door of heaven is opened for us and all doors in the world are too. There is solution of all impossible problems. There is beautiful successful future life in time of need.

      The more we are used by God, the more we are sanctified and changed until being perfect and we become the priests and kings in the New Jerusalem forever.

God blesses you.
