讓我帶你看看「約瑟一族」──即一小群完全奉獻的末世聖徒。他每天與主交通，他們生活中的每一細節都靠聖靈引導，而且就在此時他們正從極大的試探與試煉中走出來，進入啟示、智慧與多結果子之地。神正在他們中間工作，把祂的真理與知識賜給他們。祂就快要呼召他們出來了，正如祂對約瑟做的那樣！

約瑟一族！(The Joseph Company!) by David Wilkerson

我認識一位聖經學者，他從約瑟身上發現一百多個像耶穌基督的地方。是的，我不僅非常相信約瑟預表基督，我也相信他預表末世的餘民──神現在正興起一群聖徒以顯明祂的教會將如何突破其屬靈的饑荒！

讓我帶你看看「約瑟一族」──即一小群完全奉獻的末世聖徒。他每天與主交通，他們生活中的每一細節都靠聖靈引導，而且就在此時他們正從極大的試探與試煉中走出來，進入啟示、智慧與多結果子之地。神正在他們中間工作，把祂的真理與知識賜給他們。祂就快要呼召他們出來了，正如祂對約瑟做的那樣！

就是現在，耶穌基督的教會正變得越來越世俗、肉體、罪惡、冰冷。我們的事工接到許多牧師與平信徒來信，其中上萬封都講到他們因教會的光景而重擔壓身。很多人都抱怨聽不到指責罪惡、改變人生命的講道。牧師則抱怨幾乎沒人想聽真理。

在美國的確有些大有能力的「燈臺」教會──充滿神聖潔的榮光。那些牧師十分火熱，傳講公義，神的大能也在他們當中運行。

在網路上看到這篇陳終道的教導,使我想到這些年聖靈更新後的北美教會間很流行教導”分辨神的季節”,分辨季節有一個最有趣的部分是”等候”!

很多人都知道”曉得真理並得以自由”,但是跟隨神的道路上,有很多僕人是會經歷"關"的過程,例如挪亞,例如保羅(因基督緣故而被囚)例如約瑟(詩篇105:人用鐐傷他的•他被鐵鍊捆拘。耶和華的話試煉他、直等到他所說的應驗了。王打發人把他解開、就是治理眾民的、把他釋放•立他作王家之主、掌管他一切所有的•)

神有沒有可能”關”一個人呢?

這是個很有意思的疑問;若經歷神親手破碎的生命道路,那些人會更有感觸……有時候神使用”曠野”,有時候神常把要用的人”晾”在一邊,無論是"關"是"囚"…..其實只是語言修辭問題,但走在信仰的道路上,在"被囚"的階段臨到時,試驗的是真正等候神的生命,聽命(勝於獻祭)的生命(這說的等候神,不只是指靈修禱告中的等個幾分鐘幾小時)當然,端看個人生命經歷和神在這人身上的工作了!

關在方舟裡的挪亞 by陳終道
經文:創八1~19

Part 8: A Living Ark with Shekinah Glory
The next time David went out, he went back and the Levites took the Ark in. Isn’t that prophetic evangelism? Isn’t prophetic evangelism the living Ark with the Shekinah glory going through a whole city? Isn’t it the raw presence of God moving in our midst? The Jews wanted to rebuild the Temple because they don’t want an empty temple; they want to find the Ark of the Covenant. They want the raw fire of God to move in it.

We don’t want ministers that are simply empty shells. We don’t want to have home meetings that only offer a nice time. Will you let the living Christ, that gold glory to be in the depths of who you are? Will you let Him take off the lid of the Ark and let His fire start to consume you?

David brought the Ark into the city of Jerusalem. How much of His glory do you want? Are you willing to be a Braveheart? David was radical! He did something that had never been done before. He broke tradition because he loved the living God with all of his heart. Lord, we want more of You!!!

David was not able to build the Temple because he was a man of war. But God gave him divine blueprint plans, and he took those plans and gave them to his son, Solomon. What is the spiritual blessing you are passing on to your children? Is it that passion, that fire, the presence of Jesus? What a legacy that is for your offspring!

Part 7: David's Big Surprise

What was David’s greatest accomplishment? Was it that he was a great King? Was it that he was a shepherd boy who loved to sing? I feel part of the greatest accomplishment David ever had was that he had a revelation to make Jerusalem the Capitol of the known world where they would pray and worship the living God. He saw it so big; he had such a vision. There was such a cry in him. He knew he would die unless the Lord was with him. In the midst of your circumstances, is the living Christ with you like He was with David?

David understood that he had to bring the Ark there, so he gathered thirty thousand men and went to the Ark. They put it on the new cart, just like the Philistines had done, and were cheering, dancing, clapping and shouting. There was one problem though. David had not gone to God and asked Him how he should bring in God’s presence.

You see, the Lord never meant for it to be brought in on a new cart, or a new model. The Ark was to be carried on the shoulders of the Levites. “Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God.” We need that cry in our hearts to know Him, to see Him. The Levites would go through times of cleansing and repenting before they would pick up the Ark on the poles. There was a holy fear of the Lord in them.
