Peace and grace in the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Revelation 12:2
12:2 Then being with child, she cried outin labor and in pain to give birth.
There are two conditions of the church of God at the last age as follows:
What should the church do in that condition? "cried out"refers to crying out to give birth. It means that the church of God must cry out for being newborn baby or experiencing the life renewal from carnal man to spiritual one like Jesus.
Where does the church of God experience the life renewal?
We learn the second point.
The true worship prayer refers to the process of ripping the flesh with all wills and its lust, so we experience the life renewal that starts from our face.
The face renewal is like the heart renewal from the hard to the gentle one.
If the heart is gentle, the face will radiate the sunshine (the love of God).
If the heart is hard, the face is gloomy and there is no light.
The spiritual meaning of the sunshine is as follows:
The functions of the love of the sun or the Bride are as follows:
God blesses us.
Revelation 12:2
12:2 Then being with child, she cried outin labor and in pain to give birth.
There are two conditions of the church of God at the last age as follows:
- Verse 2, the church of God is like the woman being with child and in pain to give birth. It is the powerless condition.
- Facing the dragon. It refers to facing the darkness, the shaking, and crisis in all things in physical and spiritual life, and marriage.
Revelation 12:3
12:3 And another sign appeared in heaven: behold, a great, fiery red dragon having seven heads and ten horns, and seven diadems on his heads.
What should the church do in that condition? "cried out"refers to crying out to give birth. It means that the church of God must cry out for being newborn baby or experiencing the life renewal from carnal man to spiritual one like Jesus.
Where does the church of God experience the life renewal?
- We must see Jesus' side that was pierced, of which water and blood came out (It is explained in Bible Study Service and Holy Communion in Malang, November 17, 2020).
- The true worship prayer that is encouraged by the true teaching word and the anointing of the Holy Spirit.
Matthew 17:1-2
17:1 Now after six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, led them up on a high mountain by themselves;
17:2 and He was transfigured before them. His face shone like the sun, and His clothes became as white as the light.
We learn the second point.
The true worship prayer refers to the process of ripping the flesh with all wills and its lust, so we experience the life renewal that starts from our face.
The face renewal is like the heart renewal from the hard to the gentle one.
If the heart is gentle, the face will radiate the sunshine (the love of God).
If the heart is hard, the face is gloomy and there is no light.
The spiritual meaning of the sunshine is as follows:
- The sun rises in Zoar = the first love.
Genesis 19:17-23
19:17 So it came to pass, when they had brought them outside, that he said, "Escape for your life! Do not look behind you nor stay anywhere in the plain. Escape to the mountains, lest you be destroyed."
19:18 Then Lot said to them, "Please, no, my lords!
19:19 "Indeed now, your servant has found favor in your sight, and you have increased your mercy which you have shown me by saving my life; but I cannot escape to the mountains, lest some evil overtake me and I die.
19:20 "See now, this city is near enough to flee to, and it is a little one; please let me escape there (is it not a little one?) and my soul shall live."
19:21 And he said to him, "See, I have favored you concerning this thing also, in that I will not overthrow this city for which you have spoken.
19:22 "Hurry, escape there. For I cannot do anything until you arrive there." Therefore the name of the city was called Zoar.
19:23 The sun had risen upon the earth when Lot entered Zoar.
Lot came out from Sodom and Gomorrah. It means that we believe in Jesus and we are saved or we will not be punished, but we must run to the mountain, so we will not perish. It refers to the mountain of the New Jerusalem (the perfection).
In Tabernacle, the perfection is shown by the Ark of Covenant.
Lot confessed that he could not reach the mountain, so he pointed Zoar, the near and small city, but over there the sun rose and there were no fire and brimstone.
1 Corinthians 1:23
1:23 but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greeks foolishness,
Zoar refers to the cross or the sacrifice of Christ that sometimes man underestimate; even the servant of God belittles the cross.
The cross actually is the place for confessing and removing the sins and our weakness, so we will not be punished.
By the true worship prayer, we get the gentle heart. The gentle heart radiates the first love that encourages us to confess the sins to God and others, so we experience the forgiveness of sins. We are justified and saved; we are freed from the punishment of fire and brimstone.
After we are saved, we must watch two things, so we will not lose the first love as follows:- Do not look at the back like Lot's wife.
Looking at the back refer to disobedience. God had commanded to escape to mountain without looking at the back, but Lot's wife looked at the back.
When we disobey God, we commit the sin.
If we disobey God, we are unfaithful and leaving the ministry.
As a result, we become a pillar of salt. It refers to experiencing the persecution of Antichrist. If we are not strong, we will worship the Antichrist and perish forever.
The matter of not looking back refers to obedience and living in righteousness according to God's will. We stop sinning. After that, we can be faithful and fervent in ministry until the end line.
As a result, we are firm in the first love and it is added more. - Do not let the sun go down.
Ephesians 4:23-28
4:23 and be renewed in the spirit of your mind,
4:24 and that you put on the new man which was created according to God, in true righteousness and holiness.
4:25 Therefore, putting away lying, "Let each one of you speak truth with his neighbor," for we are members of one another.
4:26 "Be angry, and do not sin": do not let the sun go down on your wrath,
4:27 nor give place to the devil.
4:28 Let him who stole steal no longer, but rather let him labor, working with his hands what is good, that he may have something to give him who has need.
The meanings are as follows:- Do not lie.
- Do not get angry without reason. Do not get angry because emotion or hatred. The correct one is that we get angry because of the right reason, with love to help others' life that is sinful (Radiating the sunlight for the foolish people, so they can live in the light).
- Do not give opportunity for Satan to let the sun go down.
- Do not steal especially God's that is the tithe and special offering and others'. The right thing is that we feel more blessed to give than to receive until we can give whole our life to God.
It means that we are firm in the first love; even it is added more.
- Do not lie.
- Do not look at the back like Lot's wife.
- The love of the sun or the perfect love.
Matthew 5:43-45,48
5:43 "You have heard that it was said, 'You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.'
5:44 "But I say to you, love your enemies, bless those who curse you, do good to those who hate you, and pray for those who spitefully use you and persecute you,
5:45 "that you may be sons of your Father in heaven; for He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust.
5:48 "Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.
Psalm 19:4-6
19:4 Their line has gone out through all the earth, And their words to the end of the world. In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun,
19:5 Which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, And rejoices like a strong man to run its race.
19:6 Its rising is from one end of heaven, And its circuit to the other end; And there is nothing hidden from its heat.
The perfect love is the love of Bride.
The gentle heart radiates the love of Bride.
The facts found in receiving the perfect love are as follows:- Loving God more than anything, prioritizing God more than anything, and being willing to sacrifice for Him.
- Loving others like we love ourselves. We do the good deed, do not repay the evil with evil, but the kindness until we love the people who are against us.
- Loving God more than anything, prioritizing God more than anything, and being willing to sacrifice for Him.
The functions of the love of the sun or the Bride are as follows:
- The sunlight is the grace light and kindness of God that become the shield or protection for our life.
Psalm 84:11
84:11 For the LORD God is a sun and shield; The LORD will give grace and glory; No good thing will He withhold From those who walk uprightly.
We are protected from sins up to the peak, so we can live in righteousness, holiness, and the right, holy, one, perfect marriage.
We are protected from the false teaching, so we can hold fast the true teaching word.
Be careful, the false teaching is forceful!
We are protected from the crisis in this world until the Antichrist reigns, the doomsday, and the hell, so we experience the peace. Everything becomes easy and light. - The sunlight is the grace light and kindness of God that go through the darkness, the thick clouds, and the heavy rain (the rain of temptation), so the rainbow of God will appear for doing the things as follows:
- Caring our life miraculously up to abundance.
- Finishing all impossible problems in due time.
- Lifting us up from the falling and failure valley to become successful and beautiful.
- Changing us to become as glorious as God is. It starts from being honest and sincere.
21:11 having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal.
We become the house of prayer where Jesus always pass through. We confess our sin and weakness honestly and recognize other's superiority.
When Jesus comes a second time, we are changed to become perfect as He is to greet His second coming in the glorious clouds. We enter the New Jerusalem forever. - Caring our life miraculously up to abundance.
God blesses us.
