History is unfolding daily, and where do we find ourselves? Do we find the days harder and darker as the battle against the darkness grows stronger and the people of God suffer more distress? Or do we see another picture: The work of the Gospel prospering, the number of believers increasing as the work of God keeps expanding, bringing a great harvest and revival?

Which one is our reality?

It is true that the world we see is darker with increasing calamities which even God’s people can’t escape. However, it is far from a complete picture. Though days are tough, and darkness covers the whole earth, this doesn’t mean that only the enemies of God are working. The children of God and the earth are groaning, it may feel that the Holy Spirit does not exist. This of course is absolutely NOT possible. The Holy Spirit is still at work. In fact, God’s work has become greater as we approach the end times. The people of God are rising up to wage war and triumph over the darkness! We are to be salt and light to the world in this dark time, unleashing divine life.

This is what 611 has been experiencing and it is what we believe. God has called 611 to be a vibrant Tree of Life, bearing much fruit. Its leaves are for the healing of the nations to display the glory of God. Moreover, it is equipping many to become Trees of Life so that together we serve God. 611 Leadership Institute was born with this vision in mind, and it continues to move forward with this mission.

I wholeheartedly believe God is going to use the Bible School mightily. As the time gets closer to Jesus’ second coming, God’s people are to stay vigilant, come out of the enemy’s bondage and stop being trampled on. We are to be equipped, receive the power of the Holy Spirit, and serve God. Children of God arise! The Church shall arise! Let us all arise to be the servants of God.

It is heartbreaking to see churches going through distress as some pastors are worn-out and some members leave. However, we have great hope in Hong Kong, deeply believing that the kindness of God is everlasting. We must face the situation in faith, ushering in the power of God and displaying it to this generation.

Our faith does not change with the situation. Instead, our faith remains unchanged because God doesn’t change! God protects His people and His Church with his great power. We have this golden window of opportunity to spread the gospel! The time is now to receive the power of the Holy Spirit, to be equipped with the truth of God’s word and to be the servants of God! Do not hesitate any longer! Let us strive for the sake of God’s Kingdom together!
