A Happy Life Starts From Knowing God’s Sovereignty

A Happy Life Starts From Knowing God’s Sovereignty

    Suqi was born into a not rich family and there were other four brothers and sisters within. However, only her father earned money to support the family. When she was in primary school, she envied the wealthy family’s children because they had better food and clothing than her. Later, finding that those elder brothers and sisters in her village who got into university and got a good job were respectable in the presence of others, she felt more envious. Therefore, she determined to put everything she had into her studies in order to test into a famous university, so that she could have good prospects and change the present life condition. After that, she was studying from early morning till late at night. From primary to high school, she always got the best grades and was the class cadre, so she often got the approval of her teachers and classmates. When she was in junior high school, the state would recruit a group of students to the secondary specialized school. Some classmates applied, but she didn’t. No one persuaded her because everyone believed that Suqi would get into a top university, and it was not worthwhile for her to enter a secondary specialized school. And that was what Suqi thought too.

Eastern Lightning | Live Out Wonderful Life That Belongs to Me

Live Out Wonderful Life That Belongs to Me

March 26, 2018
By Li Chen

    Once there was a little sparrow in the woods. Since the sparrow was young, it had gotten a great dream—to fly as high as the eagle when it grew up. For this, the little sparrow painstakingly practiced flying high in the sky every day. A swallow saw and tried to persuade it: You are born to be a sparrow. No matter how hard you practice, you won’t possibly make an eagle, so don’t waste your time. After hearing these words, the little sparrow felt defiant, thinking: When I can fly as high as the eagle one day, I will let you see. At that time, nobody dares to look down on me. Finally, the little sparrow set out. It flew over villages and rivers, and flew higher and higher. Just while it was going to reach the height it had dreamed of, it was exhausted. It looked down and could find nowhere to take a rest, because there was only a roaring river below. In the end, the sparrow ran out of its strength and fell straight into the water.

The “Prince Charming” in Yanzi’s Mind’s Eye

    While Yanzi studied at a junior middle school, a friend of her elder brother often came to play at her home, and then he became familiar with her little by little. Yanzi’s parents were out of health, so he did not waste words to help after knowing that her family met with difficulties. From Yanzi’s junior year of senior middle school to the end of the college entrance examination, he picked up and saw off her every night in all weathers. Then Yanzi went to an out-of-town university, and he always took good care of her family during her university years. They eventually married after she graduated from school. After that, he still showed her every consideration. When their baby was born, he was worried that it was hard for her to look after the baby, so he gave her a hand with the baby of his own accord in order that she could have more rest. At every party, Yanzi’s friends said to her enviously: “You are very lucky to have such a good husband.” At that moment, Yanzi thought her husband was like Fifth Prince (the fifth son of the Qianlong Emperor) in the television drama series “Princess Huanzhu (also known as My Fair Princess),” and she herself was like the princess, Little Swallow (Xiao Yanzi, who has a romantic relationship with Fifth Prince). And she considered that she was the happiest person in the world.

God's Intention of Saving ManWill Not Change"



God's Intention of Saving Man Will Not Change

     Now man knows a bit of God's dispositions, of what God has and is, of the works that He does.Yet most of their understandings are nothing more than words on a page, theories in mind.God doesn't want anyone to feel abandoned or left out in the cold.He wants to see a firm heart to follow the road of knowing God and seeking truth.

Eastern Lightning | Finding God Is True Happiness (Part 2)


Finding God Is True Happiness (Part 2)

Wang Kai

    After praying, I read some of God’s words: “‘Money makes the mare go’ is the philosophy of Satan and it prevails among every human society. You could say that it is a trend because it has been imparted to everyone and is now affixed in their heart. People went from not accepting this saying to growing used to it so that when they came into contact with real life, they gradually gave tacit approval to it, acknowledged its existence and finally, they gave it their own seal of approval. Is this right? (Yes.) Isn’t this process that of Satan corrupting man?” (“God Himself, the Unique V” in Continuation of The Word Appears in the Flesh).

Christian Song | Praise the God Full of Authority | "Only by Fearing God Can Evil Be Shunned"



Only by Fearing God Can Evil Be Shunned


God’s disposition is majestic and wrathful.

He’s not a lamb to be slaughtered by anyone.

He is not a puppet, played by anyone as they like.

Nor is He air, ordered around by people.

If you really believe in God’s existence,

you should have a heart that fears God.

God’s Words Led Me Out of the Woods


The Transformation of a Fallen Man

November 20, 20172

Tong Xin Fujian Province

    I was born in the countryside. I came from a line of humble farmers and on top of that our family was few in number, so we were often bullied. When I was 13 years old, there was a child beaten by someone from outside of our village. The villagers falsely accused my father of instigating it and they said they were going to search our house and confiscate our property, take away our pigs and even beat my father. There was also a time when another villager took our fishing net and kept it as his own. When my father went to get it back, the villager actually hit my father, relying on his own power and influence. My father had to just eat humble pie as he knew that he had neither money nor power. My mother told my brothers and me that we must fight for ourselves in the future, and never live a life of oppression like this. Being young and detesting the injustice in society, I was determined that in the future I would stand out from the crowd and earn their respect, and never be oppressed. So I studied very hard, but I wasn’t smart enough and I couldn’t get into any universities, so I chose to pursue development in the army and joined easily by going through connections.

Gospel Movie Clip "Faith in God" (6) - What Does True Faith in God Mean?



Gospel Movie Clip "Faith in God" (6) - What Does True Faith in God Mean?

Many people believe that a belief in God is a belief in the Bible, and that working painstakingly for the Lord is the reality of believing in God. No one in the religious world is able to thoroughly understand what true faith in God means. Almighty God says, "'Belief in God' means believing that there is a God; this is the simplest concept of faith in God. What's more, believing that there is a God is not the same as truly believing in God; rather, it is a kind of simple faith with strong religious overtones. True faith in God means experiencing the words and work of God based on a belief that God holds sovereignty over all things. So you shall be freed of your corrupt disposition, shall fulfill the desire of God, and shall come to know God. Only through such a journey can you be said to believe in God" (The Word Appears in the Flesh).

Gospel Movie clip (4) - Is Interpreting the Bible the Same as Exalting and Bearing Witness for God?



Most people throughout the entire religious world believe that those who are most able to explain the Bible are people who know God, and that if they can also interpret the Bible's mysteries and explain prophecies, then they are people who conform to God's will, and they exalt and bear witness to God. Many people, therefore, have a blind faith in this kind of person and they worship them. So do pastors and elders' explanations of the Bible really exalt and bear witness to God? Almighty God says, "Those who read the Bible in grand churches recite the Bible every day, yet not one understands the purpose of God’s work. Not one is able to know God; moreover, not one is in accord with the heart of God. They are all worthless, vile men, each standing on high to teach God. Though they brandish the name of God, they willfully oppose Him" (The Word Appears in the Flesh).

Love God With All My Heart | "I Will Love God to Eternity" (Official Music Video)


I Will Love God to Eternity

I
O God! Your words have led me back to You.

I accept training in Your kingdom day and night.
So many trials and pains, so many tribulations.
and many times have fallen into the trap of Satan.
Many times I shed tears and felt heart-stricken, But You have never departed from me.
Now I know that You have loved me.
You led me through many hardships, You kept me through many dangers.

A Hymn of God's Words "True Meaning of Faith in God" | Eastern Lightning


True Meaning of Faith in God

I
So many people believe, but so few understand what faith in God really means, what they need to do to beat with God's heart. So many know the word "God," know phrases like the "work of God," but they don't know Him, nor what He really does. No wonder their faith is blind. They're not serious about this because it's unfamiliar and strange. So they are far short of God's demands. If you don't know God and His work, can you be fit for His use? Can you fulfill the desire of God?

Worship God in Spirit and in Truth | A Cappella "The Result Achieved by Knowing God" (Music Video)



The Result Achieved by Knowing God

One day,
you will feel that the Creator
is no longer a riddle,
that the Creator has never been hidden from you,
that the Creator has never concealed His face from you,
that the Creator is no longer the One that you constantly long for in your thoughts but that you cannot reach with your feelings,
that the Creator is not at all far from you,
supplying your life, and controlling your destiny, controlling your destiny.

One day, I saw this following passage of God’s word in the piece “How Peter Came to Know Jesus”: “Over the time he followed Jesus, Peter observed and took to heart everything about His life: His actions, words, movements, and expressions. … From his time in contact with Jesus, Peter also realized that His character was different from that of an ordinary man.
