God Is With Me—Witnessing a Miracle Amidst Despair

December 7, 2018
By Zhao Zhihan, China


    As we journey through life, every one of us will experience some extraordinary events which become inscribed on our memory and will never be forgotten. The experience that has left me with the deepest impression was the time my husband was involved in a car accident, when no one knew whether he would pull through or not, and the days that followed, during which I felt at a complete loss and was at the end of my tether. But what was different for me was that, because God was with me and I had His guidance, I thus had a support, and through praying to God and relying on Him, I witnessed a miracle in the midst of my despair. During that disastrous time, what I gained more was understanding of God’s authority and sovereignty, and a true appreciation of God’s love …

The Mystery of the Incarnation (4) (Selection)



In the Age of Grace, Jesus did much of that work, such as healing sickness, casting out demons, laying His hands upon man to pray for man, and blessing man. However, to continue to do so would serve no purpose in the present day. The Holy Spirit worked in that way at the time, for it was the Age of Grace, and man was shown enough grace for enjoyment. Man did not have to pay any price and could receive grace as long as he had faith. All were treated very graciously. Now, the age has changed, and the work of God has progressed further; through His chastisement and judgment, the rebelliousness of man and the unclean things within man will be cast away. As it was the stage of redemption, God had to do such work, showing man enough grace for man to enjoy, so that He could redeem man from sin, and through grace forgive man their sins. This stage is done to reveal the iniquities within man through chastisement, judgment, the smiting of words, as well as the discipline and revelation of words, so that they may afterward be saved. This is work more in-depth than redemption. In the Age of Grace, man enjoyed enough grace and has already experienced this grace, and so it is no longer to be enjoyed by man. Such work is now out-of-date and is no longer to be done. Now, man is saved through judgment by the word. After man is judged, chastised and refined, his disposition is thereby changed. Is this not because of the words I have spoken? Each stage of work is done in line with the progress of all mankind and with the age. All work has its significance; it is done for the final salvation, for mankind to have a good destination in the future, and for man to be divided according to their kind in the end.

I Will Always Keep God's Love in My Mind



Church Hymn

I Will Always Keep God's Love in My Mind


1

Working in the flesh,You've suffered pain and shame.Worldly people slander and mock Your ways.Religious circles condemn and frame You.Chased by the red dragon, scorned by this age.Quietly enduring while expressing truths, doing it all 'cause You want to save man.Though innocent,You bear blame, defiance.Holy yet amongst sinners to save man.You do give without regret truth, life to humanity.Oh God, You are so lovely.Your words of life, forever in our hearts.Remembering Your request, we testify to Your kingdom's gospel.We will fulfill our duty, bear beautiful, great witness for You.I love You in my heart, God, forever keep Your love in my mind too.

The Word of God in the Last Days | "God Himself, the Unique (VI) God's Holiness (III)" (Part One)


Introduction

The Word of God in the Last Days | "God Himself, the Unique (VI) God's Holiness (III)" (Part One)


Almighty God says, "Satan uses fame and gain to control man’s thoughts until all they can think of is fame and gain. They struggle for fame and gain, suffer hardships for fame and gain, endure humiliation for fame and gain, sacrifice everything they have for fame and gain, and they will make any judgment or decision to both maintain and obtain fame and gain. In this way, Satan binds man with invisible shackles. These shackles are borne on people’s bodies, and they have not the strength nor courage to throw them off. So people trudge ever onward in great difficulty, unknowingly bearing these shackles. For the sake of this fame and gain, mankind becomes estranged from God and betrays Him. With each passing generation, mankind becomes more and more wicked, more and more darkened, and so in this way one generation after another is destroyed in the fame and gain of Satan."
