At the beginning of the year, I have received the first message of the year: Launch 2025. God is going to do mighty work in our midst, how thrilling and exciting!
Since 2018 when God gave us the vision of the Tree of Life, He has been revealing to us what the Tree of Life is in concrete terms. We will turn 24 this year. We have been connecting with each other in the Tree of Life and after conducting fasting and prayer consecutively for five years, we are ready to respond to God. At the end of 2024, we held the Tree of Life conference in Taichung. It happened to mark 400 years of the Gospel reaching Taiwan. On our way back to Hong Kong, we saw a giant Tree of Life picture at the Hong Kong airport. There and then I knew, God had made the Tree of Life of ours to be in shape. In 2025, the Tree of Life shall be launched by God in His way and according to His will. Hence it shall grow rapidly.
Psalm 25 is our theme scripture this year. The twenty-two verses in the chapter are divided into three paragraphs. The first paragraph (V1-7) echoes the last (V16-22). The middle part includes verses 8-11 which corresponds to verses 12-15. Verse 8: “Good and upright is the Lord; therefore He instructs sinners in his ways”. And verse 12: “Who, then, are those who fear the Lord? He will instruct them in the ways they should choose.” These two verses are the beginning of two central parts, and verse 12 is the key verse. “Instruct” appears in both verses which means “to flow as water” in the original text. It means to be launched or pour like water. God shall instruct us, the sinners, to walk in His way, His covenant, and His redemption. God will launch us in the ways He chooses for us, which we also choose for ourselves. In the Bario Youth Revival Conference, our prophetesses prophesized that a rocket was seen to be launched into the sky from the ground. God will do mighty work speedily and He will give us keys to open many doors. In the new year, let’s launch, start, marshal, mobilize, and walk in God’s ways. God shall open doors to us in many areas and launch us on His trails so that the Tree of Life may continue to grow rapidly and be planted everywhere.
Verse 13: “They will spend their days in prosperity, and their descendants will inherit the land.” God launches us not by our strength but by His strength and hands that will bring us to fulfill His will. We shall surely spend our days in prosperity and our descendants will inherit the land. Though the economy and the world are in turmoil, God is determined to bless us. Verse 14: “The Lord confides in those who fear him; He makes his covenant known to them.” God will confide in us. He wants to win over the whole earth through the healing of the Tree of Life. His will shall be done in our lives.
In this new year, God will launch us and be with us. Let us enter “Launch 2025” full of expectations!■【2025.01.05】
