The Lord is pouring His Holy Spirit like never before during these last days.
It is the manifestation of the Godhead himself on earth today. He reveals what the Father and Son (Jesus) are saying and doing in His church today. Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary defines manifestation as “a sign of something existing or happening, appearance, something clearly shown through signs or actions.”
Thus, we see the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove at the baptism of Jesus (Matt.3:16); tongues of fire on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:3); a pillar of cloud and a pillar of fire in the wilderness (Exodus 13:21).
The Lord is calling His church to walk in a much higher level of awareness, obedience, understanding, and cooperation with the Holy Spirit. We are to actively engage the Holy Spirit in everything we do for the Kingdom, expecting to see, to hear and experience His manifestation in our presence. Just as in Genesis, He is still creating that which is spoken in Heaven by the Father. That which is spoken by the Father will be revealed by Jesus and then manifested upon the earth by the power of the Holy Spirit, as we walk in constant obedience and holiness unto the Lord.
The Lord clearly calls CKRM to exercise 1 Cor.2:4,5 - "And my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, that your faith should not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God." These are the modern days of Elijah where miracles, signs and wonders are supernaturally natural in CKRM meetings. It is the outpouring of the Holy Spirit that produces great manifestation of His Holy Spirit’s power in our midst, not giving fear but drawing us back to the first love of Christ when we first came to accept Jesus as our Lord and Saviour. So let us be prompt to recognize Him, thank Him and depend totally on His holy presence, constantly obeying Him and allowing the Holy Spirit of the Living God to move freely in His church.

圣灵的彰显-编辑撰文
(中文翻译由中国Sarah Shan博士完成)
主在末世正在前所未有地将祂的圣灵浇灌下来,这是祂的神性在地上的彰显。祂正在显明现今在祂的教会中父与子(耶稣)正在做什么。《剑桥高级英语学习词典》(Cambridge Advanced Learner’s Dictionary)对彰显一词的定义是“所存在或发生事物的标志,表现,事物通过记号或动作清楚地表现出来”
因此,我们在圣经中看到耶稣受洗的时候圣灵如鸽子降下(马太福音3:16),五旬节当日舌头如火焰显现(使徒行传2:3),旷野中有云柱火柱引领(出埃及记13:21)。
主正在呼召祂的教会走在更高的认识、顺服、理解及与圣灵同工中。我们在为国度所做的任何事情中,必须积极参与圣灵的行动,期待看到、听到、经历祂在我们当中的彰显。如创世记中一样,祂仍在按照父在天上所说创造着。当我们持续在主面前走在顺服与圣洁中,父所说的话要通过主耶稣启示,然后藉着圣灵的能力在地上彰显出来。
主清楚呼召CKRM操练哥林多前书2:4,5的经文,“我说的话,讲的道,不是用智慧委婉的言语,乃是用圣灵和大能的明证。”在CKRM的聚会中,如同是以利亚的日子,超自然的神迹、奇事成为自然。圣灵的浇灌使祂的能力在我们中间极大地彰显出来,不但没有使我们惧怕,反而将我们带回对基督起初的爱,如我们在起初接受耶稣为我们的主和救主的日子。让我们来渴慕认识祂、感谢祂、全然倚靠祂的圣洁同在、持续地顺服祂,让永生神的圣灵在祂的教会中自由运行。
