I can do all things through Him who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13
“We have sought to make it clear that Christian experience does not begin with walking, but with sitting. Every time we reverse the divine order, the result is disaster. The Lord Jesus has done everything for us, and our need now is to rest confidently in Him.
He is seated on the throne, so we are carried through in His strength. It cannot be too strongly emphasized that all true spiritual experience begins from rest. But it does not end there. Though the Christian life begins with sitting, sitting is always followed by walking.
When once we have been well and truly seated and have found our strength in sitting down, then we do in fact begin to walk. Sitting describes our position with Christ in the heavenlies. Walking is the practical outworking of that heavenly position here on earth.”
Watchman Nee or Ni Tuosheng (1903-1972) in Sit, Walk, Stand (Carol Stream: Tyndale House, 1977) 18.
I got good rest last night. I am so thankful as that is not always the case with international travel. Now I will take breakfast and walk to the subway station.
From there I will continue rich interaction with about 1,000 delegates from 120+ countries, with 5,000 Korean pastors, and another 2,000 Korean participants.
After you have taken rest, refreshed in body and renewed in spirit, is it time for your to walk in generous service? Imagine how this fresh perspective shapes your generosity.
