a poem by A.S. - 2nd poem ✍️
📖Rom. 9:18-23; Rev. 4:2-11

1⃣
O Sovereign Potter, shaping clay,
We are but dust in fleeting day.
Your hands alone, both firm and wise,
Mold hearts contrite, unveil our eyes.
2⃣
Eternal King, enthroned in light,
You rule in wisdom, pure and bright.
Your will, unshaken, stands supreme,
No mortal thought can shift Your scheme.
3⃣
Who are we to raise dispute,
Against Your voice, so absolute?
Like fragile dust, we break, we fall,
Yet in Your grace, You mend us all.
4⃣
Your throne of Jasper, burning fire,
Refines the soul from vain desire.
O Living One, our night disperse,
Defeat our pride, undo the curse.
5⃣
Your faithful hand redeems our clay,
Infuses breath, restores our soul.
Before Your Throne, let clay stand whole,
Subdued in love, renewed in mind.
6⃣
Expand Your rule within our soul,
Displace our throne, be manifest.
Let living flames, like creatures four,
Consume our blindness evermore.
7⃣
Sustaining Lord, in glory vast,
Your wisdom reigns, Your will is cast.
In mercy rich, our strength supply,
That we may kneel, yet never die.
8⃣
Your kingdom stands, the dawn is near,
No power contests Your law severe.
Break us, build us, with infusing eyes—
Reign sovereign still within our heart.

1⃣
O Potter, high upon Your throne,
We, fragile clay, are Yours alone.
Shaped by hands both just and wise,
Yet blind until You grant us eyes.
2⃣
You hold dominion without end,
The Kingdom’s scepter in Your hand.
Who dares contend, who dares complain,
Against Your will, so pure, so plain?
3⃣
We stumble weak, yet You are strong,
Your glory is an endless song.
Your life sustains, Your mercy calls,
Redemption lifts where weakness falls.
4⃣
Defeat us, Lord, dethrone our pride,
Let not the night within abide.
Scatter the veil that hides Your light,
And lead us back to truth and sight.
5⃣
O Living One, the Great, the True,
Instill in us a heart made new.
Expand Your rule, our souls refine,
Break us, mold us, make us Thine.
6⃣
Your appearance is Jasper, Sardius bright,
A fire of love, a piercing light.
May we reflect its holy glow,
And in Your presence humbly bow.
7⃣
Like four living creatures with watching eyes,
Teach us to see, and make us wise.
Within, without, may Your eyes spread,
That we may walk where You have led.
8⃣
Forever faithful, Lion-Lamb,
Prepare us, Lord, to see Your face.
And standing there, by mercy’s plea,
To reign with You eternally.

Every Bible reader must set aside a certain amount of time every day to study the Bible in a definite way. This should be done apart from his reading during "morning watch." Experience tells us that it is not altogether wise to allocate too much time to such study. When we allocate too much time, we usually cannot keep it up, and the result is not profitable. We should set a standard for ourselves that is reasonable to achieve. Servants of the Lord do not need to spend more than two hours every day to study the Bible. Nor should we spend less than one hour. Occasionally, when we have more time, we can extend our study to three hours. We have to make a decision about this after careful consideration. Once we have made a decision, we should adhere to it at least for a few years. We should not change our schedule after two or three months. We have to learn to restrict and discipline ourselves a little. Our reading cannot be too capricious. Such free, undisciplined, and "inspirational" reading should not be our pattern. Many people are too careless in their reading. They read a few hours one day and nothing the next day. This shows a lack of perseverance. It is a terrible habit. We should decide on what to do after careful consideration and prayer, and once we have made the decision, we should adhere to it wholeheartedly.

Ang bawat mambabasa ng Bibliya ay dapat maglaan ng isang tiyak na tagal ng oras araw-araw upang pag-aralan ang Bibliya sa isang tiyak na paraan. Dapat itong gawin bukod pa sa kanyang pagbabasa sa panahon ng "pag morning revival." Sang-ayon sa atin ng karanasan na hindi lubos na katalinohan na maglaan ng masyadong maraming oras sa naturang pag-aaral. Kapag naglalaan tayo ng masyadong maraming oras, kadalasan ay hindi natin ito mapapanatili, at ang resulta ay hindi gaanong nakakatulong. Dapat lamang tayo magtakda ng pamantayan para sa ating sarili na makatwirang nating makamit. Ang mga naglilingkod ng Panginoon ay hindi kailangang gumugol ng higit sa dalawang oras araw-araw upang mag-aral ng Bibliya. Hindi rin tayo dapat gumugol ng mas mababa pa sa isang oras. Paminsan-minsan, kapag mayroon tayong mas maraming oras, maaari naman nating pahabain ang ating pag-aaral sa tatlong oras. Kailangan nating gumawa ng desisyon hingil dito pagkatapos ng maingat na pagsasaalang-alang. Kapag nakapagdesisyon na tayo, dapat nating sundin ito kahit man lang sa loob ng ilang taon. Hindi natin dapat baguhin ang ating iskedyul pagkatapos ng dalawa o tatlong buwan. Kailangan nating matutong maghigpit at disiplinahin ng kaunti ang ating mga sarili. Ang ating pagbabasa ay hindi maaaring maging masyadong kapritsoso. Ang ganitong libre, walang disiplina, at "nakakainspirasyon" na klase ng pagbabasa ay hindi dapat maging tularan o pattern natin. Maraming tao ang masyadong pabaya sa kanilang pagbabasa. Nakapagbasa sila ng ilang oras isang araw at wala na sa susunod na araw. Ito ay nagpapakita ng kawalan ng tiyaga. Ito ay isang kakila-kilabot na ugali. Dapat tayong magpasiya kung ano ang nararapat na gagawin pagkatapos ng maingat na pagsasaalang-alang at panalangin, at kapag nagawa na natin ang desisyon, dapat nating sundin ito nang buong puso.

With joy in view, we lift our eyes,To Him who bore the shameful tree.We gladly tread where sorrow lies, Enduring all to faithful be.

In service pure, His grace supplies,Our strength to labor, firm and true.Not ours to boast, nor vainly rise,But faith in Him our works renew.

3⃣
The fleeting joys of earth decay,The soul-life bound in vain delight.Human affection must fade away,To gain His life, His radiant light.

4⃣
Through trials fierce and hate untold,Through bonds of creed that seek to bind,We lose our souls, our faith made bold,And in all the shame His joy we find.

5⃣
The cross we bear, the path is steep,Yet resurrection life it yields.His Body formed, His Church be built,A house of gold, a harvest field.

6⃣
Our utmost joy, His voice to hear:"Well done, My faithful one, arise!"To reign with Him in glory clear,Co-kings in triumph through the skies.

7⃣
To lose the soul-life now is gain,The church is formed by those who yield.Their hearts consumed in holy flame,His kingdom reign, their faith revealed.

8⃣
Not ours to trust in natural strength,But gaze on Him, our perfect Guide.The Faithful One leads forth His own,And we, through faith, make all complete.

After warning the disciples, the Lord went with them to Gethsemane (v. 36). 𝗚𝗲𝘁𝗵𝘀𝗲𝗺𝗮𝗻𝗲 means the 𝙥𝙡𝙖𝙘𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙤𝙞𝙡 𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨. 𝙏𝙝𝙚 𝙇𝙤𝙧𝙙 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙨𝙨𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙛𝙡𝙤𝙬 𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙤𝙞𝙡, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙎𝙥𝙞𝙧𝙞𝙩.

But it seemed to them that nothing was going to happen and that everything was peaceful. Perhaps the disciples fell asleep because they had been tired out by the Lord’s presence. According to the other Gospels, Peter and John were the ones sent ahead to prepare the room for the Passover. Perhaps they were tired from all the events of the day. Peter might have said to himself, “I would like to stay away from Jesus for a little while. Since I cannot get away from Him, let me take a little sleep. The Lord may need to pray, but I need to sleep.” 𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙖 𝙛𝙪𝙡𝙡 𝙚𝙭𝙥𝙤𝙨𝙪𝙧𝙚 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙛𝙖𝙘𝙩 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙋𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙪𝙣𝙖𝙗𝙡𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙢𝙖𝙠𝙚 𝙞𝙩 𝙞𝙣 𝙛𝙤𝙡𝙡𝙤𝙬𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙇𝙤𝙧𝙙. 𝙄𝙩 𝙞𝙨 𝙖𝙡𝙨𝙤 𝙖 𝙥𝙤𝙧𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙞𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙨𝙞𝙩𝙪𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣. We love the Lord, but like Peter we may get tired out from being in His presence. Although it is wonderful to have the Lord’s presence, sometimes we may get too weary to care for it.

According to verses 40 and 41, when the Lord came to the disciples and found them sleeping, He said to Peter, “So, you were not able to watch with Me one hour? Watch and pray that you may not enter into temptation; the spirit indeed is ready, but the flesh is weak.” In spiritual things our spirit is often ready or willing, but our flesh is weak. Notice that the Lord Jesus spoke this word specifically to Peter, for Peter was the “nose,” the one who was the most prominent.

When the Lord came back after praying the 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗱 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲, the disciples were still sleeping. In verses 36 through 46 we see a contrast between the life that is absolutely able for the kingdom and the life that is completely unable. We do not have the first life by our natural birth.

In the garden of Gethsemane, the Lord was pressed to be sorrowful and distressed, even unto death. After praying to the Father three times, He took the Father’s will and was prepared to be crucified for the fulfillment of the Father’s will.

Kung adunay bisan kinsa kanato nga nahulog gikan sa husto nga dalan, o mihunong sa pagdagan sa lumba, ug unya kini nadasig sa pagpadayon, kinahanglan nga dili siya magduhaduha o mangutana pa. Mopadayon na lang unta siya. Kon daghang mga tawo ang nadasig sa pagpadayon uban sa Ginoo, ang uban kanila nabalaka kon unsay ilang pagabuhaton sa dili pa sila makapadayon, nga nagapaminsar kon ang Ginoo mopasaylo ba kanila o magmalipayon uban kanila. Kung ingon ani ka, malisod alang kanimo sa pagpadayon sa Ginoo. Kalimti kon Siya mopasaylo ba kanimo o magmalipayon uban kanimo. Ayaw pag-usik ug panahon sa paghunahuna sa maong mga butang hangtod nga maabot nimo ang tumong ug maangkon ang ganti. Ayaw na kahibulong kung sakto ka ba o sayup - padayon lang. Kadtong nagpadayon sa labing maayo mao kadtong mga wala makahinumdom sa bisan unsa. Tagda ang mga magdadagan sa usa ka lumba. Samtang nagdagan sila, wala na silay panahon sa paghunahuna pa ug lain pa man. Usa ra ang ilang nahibaluan-ang pagdagan lang sa lumba.

Kung ang sinuman sa atin ay nalaglag mula sa tamang landas , o huminto sa pagtakbo sa karera, at pagkatapos ay napasigla itong magpatuloy, hindi siya dapat mag-alinlangan o magtanong. Dapat magpatuloy lang siya. Kapag maraming tao ang nahihikayat na magpatuloy sa piling ng Panginoon, ang ilan sa kanila ay nag-aalala sa kung ano ang dapat nilang gawin bago sila makapagpatuloy, nag-iisip kung patatawarin sila ng Panginoon o matutuwa ba sa kanila. Kung ganito ka, mahihirapan kang magkapag-patuloy sa Panginoon. Kalimutan mo ang tungkol sa kung patatawarin ka ba Niya o magiging masaya Siya sa iyo. Huwag paglaanan ng oras upang isaalang-alang ang mga bagay na ito hanggang sa maabot mo ang layunin at makamit ang gantimpala. Huwag mo nang ipagtataka kung tama ka ba o mali—ipagpatuloy mo lang. Ang mga nagpapatuloy sa pinakamahusay ay ang mga walang naaalala. Isaalang-alang ang mga mananakbo sa isang karera. Habang tumatakbo sila, wala silang oras na para makapag-isip ng kung ano-ano. Isa lang ang alam nila-ang pagtakbo sa karera.

如果我們中的任何一個人偏離了正確的軌道,或者在比賽中停止了奔跑,然後又繼續前進,他不應該猶豫或提出問題。他應該繼續下去。當許多人被激動要跟主往前的時候,有些人關心自己該做什麼才可以往前,徘徊主是否會饒恕他們,是否會喜悅他們。你若這樣,你就很難與主同行。忘記他是否會原諒你或對你感到滿意。在達到目標並獲得獎品之前,不要花時間考慮這些事情。不要懷疑你是對還是錯——繼續。那些過得最好的人是那些什麼都不記得的人。考慮一下比賽中的賽跑者。當他們奔跑的時候,他們沒有時間思考其他事情。他們只知道一件事——跑比賽。

📖Mat. 16:16-18;22-28;Rom.12:2d;12:3

1⃣
In Christ’s death, the pattern is clear,
A pathway laid, through blood and tear.
His sacrifice, the unique design,
To shape the Church, His body divine.
Not by might, nor by our own hand,
But through His death, the Church shall stand.

2⃣
Satan’s gates are subtle, deep, and wide,
Within the soul, the self, the mind’s pride.
To think too highly of our own esteem,
Is the root of division, a shattered dream.
The unrenewed mind, the culprit within,
Fosters division, the strife, the sin.

3⃣
In Him alone, the grace is shown,
His element wrought into us, unknown.
Through faith’s measure, His grace does flow,
To build the Church, His love to grow.
Our function not by self, but by grace,
A holy work in each sacred place.

4⃣
Unless our minds be transformed anew,
The reality of building is but a view.
Only in His death and resurrection’s light,
Can we see the true work, pure and bright.
For the Church is not built by hands alone,
But through hearts made His, and His alone.

5⃣
Treasure the innerman, who knows His voice,
The outerman broken, no longer our choice.
We must let go, be shaped and remade,
For in His work, the Church is laid.
The inner man, by His grace, takes His form,
In the brokenness, we are reborn.

6⃣
In the death of self, the life does spring,
The Church built on His life, its kingly domain.
The resurrection’s power, operates our days,
A living testimony, our testifying praise.
His life in us, our faith in His will,
Builds the kingdom, and we are still.

7⃣
Make us wide open, vessels of grace,
For His life to flow, in every space.
Let His death and resurrection be the way,
A daily life, in Him we pray.
For the Church is His, not ours to own,
In His life, His death, we are grown.

8⃣
Thus, we take the way, with humble heart,
The building of His Church, a sacred art.
Not by might, but by His life alone,
We are His Body, His Church, His Bride.
In Christ’s death, we find our call,
In resurrection, we stand, and all.

Brother Watchman Nee on; "How to deal our feelings"

A ᴛᴀʟᴋ ᴡɪᴛʜ ᴄᴏ-ᴡᴏʀᴋᴇʀꜱ ꜰʀᴏᴍ Hᴏɴɢ Kᴏɴɢ ᴀɴᴅ Cᴀɴᴛᴏɴ, Aᴜɢᴜꜱᴛ 1949 ᴀɴᴅ Nᴏᴠᴇᴍʙᴇʀ 21, 1949.

𝗪𝗮𝘁𝗰𝗵𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗡𝗲𝗲: We have to learn to deny living according to feelings. Our feelings may be right some of the time, but in essence they are deceptive. We should not look for truth among deceptions, because we can never find it. Satan can speak some truths, but we have to reject everything that comes from his mouth because in essence he is a liar. Even when he speaks the truth, he speaks it for the purpose of deceiving others. 𝙒𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙘𝙖𝙡𝙢 𝙙𝙤𝙬𝙣 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙥𝙡𝙚𝙩𝙚𝙡𝙮. 𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙨 𝙧𝙚𝙦𝙪𝙞𝙧𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙠𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙤𝙛 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙤𝙪𝙩𝙚𝙧 𝙢𝙖𝙣.

The spirit is surrounded by the soul, just as a hand is surrounded by a glove. A glove must be empty before a hand can get into it. If a glove has something in it, how can it receive a hand? Similarly, if our mind, emotion, and will are filled with thoughts, feelings, and opinions instead of being empty and available, when the spirit needs to use them, it will find itself bound. Under such circumstances, it is hard to have right judgments.

In order to have right judgments, we need to "let this mind be in [us], which was also in Christ Jesus" (Phil. 2:5). This means to have the mind of Christ. We can only improve in judgment when we take the mind of Christ as our own. 𝙄𝙣 𝙤𝙧𝙙𝙚𝙧 𝙩𝙤 𝙞𝙢𝙥𝙧𝙤𝙫𝙚 𝙤𝙪𝙧 𝙪𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙖𝙣𝙘𝙚, 𝙬𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙚 𝙚𝙣𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙚𝙙 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣. 𝙊𝙪𝙧 𝙞𝙣𝙣𝙚𝙧 𝙗𝙚𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙝𝙖𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙚 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙡𝙞𝙜𝙝𝙩.

If the foot is wearing the shoe, the foot will feel very comfortable. But if the shoe is "wearing" the foot, no one can take a step forward. The shoe must fit the foot; no one can trim the foot to fit the shoe. If feelings are improper, the spirit cannot be free, because the spirit will be bound by the feelings. Rather than being directed by the spirit, the soul will be directing the spirit.

Bro Lee about building the habit of reading the scriptures 📖

We must learn to change our way to read the word. Fifteen years ago I did not dare to tell this to people. Today, however, I have the full assurance that this is the right way. Do not say this is too slow or that it will take twenty years to finish the whole Bible. Leave that to the Lord. With this way, we will know the word better and more deeply, and we will enjoy it in a richer and more living way. When will we finish reading the Bible? Leave this to the Lord. Simply come to the word day by day. Do not ask, “When will I exhaust all the riches of America?” We cannot finish eating all the riches. They are too rich. Simply take care of your nourishment. Be nourished that you may grow and be strong. In the same principle, learn to spend at least half an hour with the Lord daily. During this half hour, do not pray for something else, such as the church, the gospel, the work, or the service. Forget about everything else. We need to first feed on the Lord through the word, taking the word as life and food. We need to learn how to practice reading in this living way.

The meaning of leadership in the Bible is completely different from our natural concept. What the Lord said about leadership in 𝙈𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙬 20:20-28 𝙖𝙣𝙙 23:8, 10, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 11 𝙨𝙝𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙝𝙪𝙢𝙖𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝𝙩 𝙤𝙛 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙥. According to the natural, human concept, a leader is higher than others. 𝘽𝙪𝙩 𝙞𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙨𝙚 𝙘𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙇𝙤𝙧𝙙 𝙨𝙖𝙮𝙨 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙬𝙝𝙤𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙙𝙚𝙨𝙞𝙧𝙚𝙨 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙚 𝙜𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙩 𝙖𝙢𝙤𝙣𝙜 𝙃𝙞𝙨 𝙥𝙚𝙤𝙥𝙡𝙚 𝙢𝙪𝙨𝙩 𝙗𝙚 𝙖 𝙨𝙡𝙖𝙫𝙚. Thus, the Lord's concept of leadership is the opposite of the natural concept. Yes, there is a need for leaders among the Lord's children today. These leaders, however, 𝙬𝙚 𝙣𝙚𝙚𝙙 𝙩𝙤 𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙯𝙚 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩, 𝙞𝙣 𝙂𝙤𝙙'𝙨 𝙉𝙚𝙬 𝙏𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙣𝙤𝙢𝙮, 𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙙𝙚𝙧𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙥 𝙢𝙚𝙖𝙣𝙨 𝙨𝙡𝙖𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙮.

If we are genuine and honest, we shall admit that we love leadership, but not slavery. Such is the human heart. Even the young sisters like to be leaders. If they cannot be number one, or at least be number two, they are disappointed. Do not bring the natural concept of leadership into your reading of the Bible. In the Bible, I repeat, leadership means slavery. If you are truly a slave among the Lord's people, you must be willing to clean the rest room, vacuum the floor, arrange the chairs, and serve as an usher. How different this is from the worldly view of leadership! In the Lord's recovery we should not ask for the janitor when we see the need for cleaning. Rather, we should all serve as janitors. Let us drop our natural concept of leadership and return to the pure Word.

𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗱𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻 𝘀𝗽𝗶𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝗰𝗮𝗽𝗮𝗰𝗶𝘁𝘆

In God's New Testament economy the leadership among His children is not official, permanent, or organizational. Rather, leadership depends upon spiritual capacity. The one with the greatest capacity is the leader. At one time that capacity may be with a certain brother, but at another time it may be with a different brother. On the day of Pentecost the greatest capacity was with Peter, but in Acts 15 it was with James.

The relationship between Barnabas and Paul further illustrates this principle. Acts 13:2 says, "As they were ministering to the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, Set apart for Me now Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them." Here we see that Barnabas is named before Paul (Saul). But when they were on their mission, Paul spontaneously took the lead (Acts 13:9) because he had the greater spiritual capacity. It was Barnabas who brought Paul to Antioch, and as long as they were in Antioch, he took the lead. But Barnabas did not argue with Paul when Paul took the lead on the mission. Barnabas did not say, "Paul, stand back. Don't forget that my name was mentioned first when we were called. Why are you taking the lead?" Because Barnabas realized that Paul's capacity was greater than his, he did not argue with him over taking the lead.

All these cases prove that the leadership among God's children today should not be official, permanent, or organizational. On the contrary, it depends always upon spiritual capacity. God ordained it this way in order to set aside the human concept of leadership. In the Old Testament the kings succeeded one another. There were never three or four kings at the same time. But in the New Testament the Lord appointed not one apostle but twelve. Later, He added others, such as Paul, Barnabas, and Timothy. I believe that there were many apostles. If not, in 2 Corinthians 11:13 how could there be false apostles? Moreover, in every local church there are always a number of elders.
