Joseph represents the
Congregation of God’s Bride who has the sign of veil of sun, moon, and stars.
Joseph also represents the Biblical Bridegroom Teaching.
PMA gives abundance of the Word before the famine comes. PMA is the food that
becomes our strength for living. The Church of God must experience rebirth so
that they are not killed by the Egyptian / the world (Exodus 1:8-14) . There
are three things that cause suffering of Israel:
1. Egypt / the world with all its appeal have already enslaved humanity.
2. Pharaoh / devil: Arrogance / searching for higher position or status.
3. Build Pithom and Rameses /store cities that supply for the needs of life /flesh: Due to covet something, then people are increasingly enslaved by work so that they get much suffering and they can not worship.
Tabernacle is worship that aim at perfection to be the Bride of God. If our worship is accompanied with a sense of inward sufficiency (physically), we will receive great and abundant gain (spiritually) (1Tim 6: 3-5).
Appreciate grazing! If we do not appreciate grazing, we will open up opportunity for other teachings to enter. We must keep the spirit of the PMA! Use our blessing to get the Word! Do not collect the treasure for the last days! (James 5:1 - 3) God will remove us from the suffering of Egypt (the world). Do not mix the spiritual with the world as what Lot has done. Scribes also mix the spiritual with the world to make one person to go to hell (Mat 23: 15).
Moses was sent by God to help the people of Israel from suffering. If we realize that we have been interested in the world and at the end we are full of suffering and we cry out to God , He will remember and pay attention to us to provide real help (Ex 2 :23 - 35, Ex3 :6 - 9). Israel belongs to God as His firstborn (Ex4 : 22-23 , Ex13 : 2 ) . If we belong to God, our cry must be heard by God. God wants to give birth to us in an atmosphere of Zion / Jerusalem through the PMA (Joel2: 32, Psalm87: 5). There will be a huge movement to find the Word so that people experience the new birth and are called the firstborn (Isaiah2: 3). Maintain the sign of new birth through the PMA. Do not let our spirituality dead by the world. Let us go up to the mountain of the Lord! What is told by Moses, the Israelites believed (Exodus 4: 10, 31). If we believe the PMA, we also believe that God sees our misery. Do not see the man who deliver His Word, but see His Word that will remove us from misery. God does not forget us (Isaiah49: 14-15, Isaiah 63:7-9). The firstborn children will enter Zion, the New Jerusalem to be the Bride of God (Herbrew12: 22-23). There is a sign of victory against the world, sin, and flesh, wiping out tear, removing from the distress and misery, and assisted by the Bridegroom of Heaven (Rev 21: 4, 7).

Worshipping in the pattern of Tabernacle
is highly desired by God, not worshipping in men's way. Egyptian atmosphere is
an atmosphere of idolatry. Israel must wake up out of Egypt to construct the
Tabernacle. Spiritual traits = traits of God = there are signs of new birth. Moses
owned spiritual characteristics so that Moses was beautiful in God's sight.
Moses is the symbol of the church that has a sign of new creation. ‘Moses’ means
taken out of water (Moses then brought the Israelites out of the Nile / water of
Egypt / the world). Moses
was educated in all the science of Egypt so that Moses became clever, wise, and
powerful in word and deed (Acts 7:22).
Herbrew11:24-27 à Opening of spiritual eyes is very important at the end of time especially in the PMA because by the opening of spiritual eyes, we can feel the blessings of teaching, not just the physical blessings. Faith is trusting in things that are not yet visible. We now have not seen the New Jerusalem, so we keep our faith in it. Later when we enter the New Jerusalem, our faith stop. Moses left the desires of world that have been obtained so that Moses earned eternal life (Moses got what he has yearned for). At the end of time more people love themselves. Our treasure is we are insulted because of Christ which is a grant. We're rich if we want to be insulted because of Christ. Do not be offended when you are insulted. Because of the power of the word, the desires to the world are reduced, so that we can focus on the PMA. Put PMA as the major. Let other things being adjusted to the PMA.
Moses was given the task by God to remove Israel from Egypt, but the One who released Israel from Egypt was God Himself (Exodus 3: 4-12). The devil, the flesh, and the world are what make Israel (Christians) suffer. Moses’ task was heavy because he had to release the Israelites from the three powers which were very strong. Moses symbolizes of Jesus (Deuteronomy 18: 15-19, Acts 3: 22, Acts 7:37). Appreciate grazing! Do not feel able to interpret the word by yourself because it will become spiritual pride. A prophet who would be raised by God who is like Moses is Christ. What is said by Moses (Christ), the Israelites must obey.
The similarities between Moses and Jesus: faithful in heading the house of God (Hebrews 3: 1-6). Our spiritual needs to be built as a spiritual house of God. We need to be built as one Body of Christ. Humans do many flaws in brotherly love (Philadelphia), because we are not perfect. But we do not need to worry because our builder is the Lord Jesus who certainly succeeds in doing everything. He cares for us faithfully. We must also serve Him faithfully and responsibly. We should be faithful till we are able to give our lives. If we gave up our lives, we will not lose our lives for the Lord Jesus will protect and maintain us. Christ always serves and strengthens us through worship. The Lord Jesus is able to get us out of Egypt and bless us for the construction of the Tabernacle.

Use our five senses to
worship and serve God so that our spiritual is healthy. God sharpens our
hearing to listen to the Word. God opens our spiritual eyes when we listen to
the Word to see cases that have not been visible. We can write the Word with
our hands and we can witness it with our mouths.
Tabernacle is the place where God is present permanently. Our worship has degrees, which is according to the pattern of the Tabernacle (the Yard, the Holy Place, and the Most Holy Place). The Most Holy Place is the perfect place that tells us about God's Bride. House of God on earth must have connection with the house of God in Heaven. Appreciate the presence of God in our midst, do not triffle in worship! We are also used by God to build up the body of Christ until it becomes perfect. God's way of working is not chaotic /messy. Moses is the symbol of the church of God and the Lord Jesus Himself. God is also willing to prepare us who are His church.
Moses died at the age of 120 years (Deuteronomy 34:5-7). Moses’ age: 120 years Jubilee year X 50 years = 6000 (the end of time). Just like Moses, Eyes of God's Bride is not blurry (her eyes are opened) and the hearing is not reduced to understand the Word at this end of time. We are healthy and strong until Jesus comes.
Moses’ age was divided into three periods (the first 40 years – the second 40 years - the third of 40 years). Acts 7: 20-29 àthe first 40 years, Moses was educated in all the wisdom of Egypt. The second 40 years, Moses had a spiritual vision. Moses did not seek success in Egypt (Hebrew 11: 24-27). If someone is looking for success in the world, it means he has not been spiritually immature. People who have infant spiritual boast outward matters (Hebrew 5:13-14, Hebrew 6: 4-6). Uninstall our self-esteem! Let the Church of God put their hope only in Christ Jesus, the Bridegroom of Heaven. Put to death worldly things so that we experience renewal (Col 3: 5-6). If someone is not spiritually mature, he will end up with apostasy (abandon his faith). The cross of Jesus is able to put to death the worldly matters. Paul, an apostle of Christ also faced suffering for Christ, because of preaching (Philippians 1: 12-13, 16).
When Moses was spiritually mature, he experienced wonderful renewal. Now we are facing a lot of struggle to get spiritual wealth. In God’s perspective, Lazarus had spiritual wealth. On the contrary, the rich man did not get water of life. God does not forget us because He wants to prepare us to be used by God. God’s guidance gives success and victory (Ex. 3: 12). Many of the Israelites did not believe in the use of Moses. Many people do not believe in PMA (Biblical Bridegroom Teaching). Hold out in PMA because God will reveal His glory in PMA.

1. Exodus 1-13: Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt à the Person of Jesus as Savior (Jesus became the Passover Lamb). Redemption: forgiveness of sins. God wants to buy us from the power of devil, sins, and flesh. With His blood we are redeemed and He brought us to victory.
2. Exodus 14-18: Moses led the Israelites in the wilderness àthe Person of Jesus as the Shepherd. A sheep is grazed if it knows its Shepherd’ sound. Through the Word, we are led by God so our spiritual is well-maintained, we are nourished spiritually.
We are grazed if we receive the Word of Biblical Bride Teaching (PMA). The challenge of God's church at the end of time is the devil will enter false teachings. We should know the true teaching so that we do not accept the false ones.
3. Exodus 19-40: Moses and the Israelites were at Mount Sinai. Moses led the spiritual of Israelites à the Person of Jesus as the Head. The One who can disconnect us from weakness, suffering, and sins is the Lord Jesus himself. To be able to release from the flesh of lust, it should be put to death at the Cross of Jesus.
Passoverà God wants us to experience renewal so that we are beautiful in God's eyes. Follow His footsteps, although there is suffering. The one who endures to the end will be safed. Moses is the symbol of the Church of God which is used by God in the end times. Church of God for the world is considered dead, but in fact the Church of God is appointed by God. Moses’ eyes weren’t blurred: experience the opening of spiritual eye. The time that we have is limited; let us use our time to prepare ourselves to be the Bride of God, to worship.
Three period of Moses’ age (Acts 7: 22 - ):
1. The first 40 years in Egypt
2. The second 40 years in Midian
3. The third 40 years, Moses brought the Israelites out of Egypt to build Tabernacle.
Stephen, the servant of God who suffered a lot, was used by God to speak about the Tabernacle, about the Bride.
Heb 11: 24-27 à If Christians still have fun with sins; it means they are still immature; they do not want to suffer. God is able to bless us so that our wealth can be used by Him.Wealth can be vanity. Moses left world matters which were pleasant in the flesh (1 Peter 4:1-4). If we suffer for Christ, our only hope is in Christ, there is no hope in the world again. Moses defended Israelites by killing the Egyptian, but he was rejected. Moses tried to reconcile the Israelites that were fighting but he was also rejected. Obeying God's way seems to be fail and we have to face suffering. Exodus 3:1-5 àMoses left Egypt and lived as a shepherd (the second 40 years). In the simplicity, Moses got a family. Moses was actually prepared by God to graze Israel while he was grazing his sheep. Suffering makes someone mature spiritually. God called you by your name to be used by Him.We are often not sensitive to the call of God whereas He has a great plan. The matters of world must be released to appreciate the holiness of God (removing sandalsfrom feet). Moses’ spiritual eyes were opened. Footprints: a willingness to preach the Word. God would use Moses to preach the Word. Isa 52: 7-12 àZion: Church of God, Assembly of God’s Bride. God wants to use us in the movement of PMA. PMA should be reported. We should support the movement of PMA. He, as the Head walked at the front. He becomes the rear guard to defend us so we do not walk alone.

The Word that we receive must be increased, up
to the perfection. Israel has ever wanted to return to the atmosphere of the
world when Moses went up on the mountain. The church can not be left for long, they
must be grazed continually. Moses grazed the people of Israel so that they were
strongly led. We are as the church / congregation / members of the Body of
Christ personally called by God with the name. God can give successes in the
world like Moses at the age of birth to 40 years. God wants us to be mature
spiritually (Heb11: 24-26). We should have grown up spiritually and can testify
to the others, but we are still a child who just wants to be served, do not
want to serve. In the last days, the ones which are still infants spiritually
will apostate/fall away. Do not allow ourselves to linger in the absence of
conversion because it makes us become infant spiritually (Heb 5: 11-12, Heb
6:4-6). We have to be dumb sheep. Do not talk much when we are angry (Heb 1:19
- 21). Speak curtly and do not want to love each other are included in crime.
Accept the Word with tender heart. Do not grumble and argue. Do not complain.
If we accept PMA enthusiastically, the blessing of PMA is effused to us. When
Moses was adult, he left pleasures of the world to suffer with the people of
Israel. Even Moses was insulted because of Christ (because of PMA), but it was
a wealth that exceeded the treasures of Egypt. Moses imitated Christ who was
despised and rejected by men by stripping of glory and humbling himself. We
have to struggle in PMA. In spiritual maturity, we are not looking for treasures
of Egypt anymore. Bride of God must be humble.Wife of Moses: Zipporah, Moses' children: Gershom and Eliezer. In Midian, Moses was taking care of the flock of Jethro (assist pastoral ministry). Exodus 3:1-5 àMoses has been directed to graze at Horeb / Sinai. Answer the call of Moses to God: "Here I am, Lord ". He turned aside to see the bush was on fire but was not burning up (this is a great vision). Bramble bush arouse when land is condemned (Adam was out of the Garden of Eden) (Heb 3: 17-19). Bramble bush is useless, condemned, and ends with the burning (Heb 6:7 - 8). Bramble bush is the world that is condemned by fire (Matthew 13:22). Worldly people are busy looking for the world's wealth whereas everything will be burned. The bush was not burning up àPeople should be condemned and punished, but they are not punished for the grace of God (2 Pet 3:7, 9). God still gives us a chance to turn back and to repent. Fire is the glory of God, a burning fire is the jealous God (God as the husband) (Ex 24 : 16-18, Deuteronomy 4:24). God will be jealous if the Church of God becomes friends of the world. Our worship should be done in earnest because God is present in our midst. Jesus loves us. He bore our curse on the cross (Gal 3:13). Do not reject the Word! Accept the Biblical Bridegroom Teaching! Do not triffle in worship! Our worship should be with respect and fear. Heb 12: 18-29 àMount Horeb is an overview of Zion, the New Jerusalem. God wants to delegate us in service.

Acts 7: 23-29
- The Egyptians persecuted the people of Israel
Christians who live in the world as a follower of Christ was hated because the world hates Christ. Associating with the world makes us being affected by the world. If we are not affected, on the contrary, the world will hate us. We associate with people from the world in moderation only. We must use our time to God because we are God's own possession (1 Peter 4:2-4). Use our belongings for worship and service (James 5: 1-3). Collect treasures in heaven (spiritual treasures / the Word) (Matthew 6: 19-21)! We gather treasures in each of our worship. If we are not present in one course of worship only, it has been a loss.
- The Israelites / Hebrews fight / maul each other
Wickedness should not be repaid by wickedness. There should be Philadelphia / brotherly love. If wickedness is repaid by kindness, the one who do kindness is blessed. If wickedness is repaid by wickedness, both are punished. Disputes within the church can not be resolved by the shepherd. Only the sacrifice of Christ can break down the dividing wall, that is, the hostility between us (Eph 2: 14-19). Christ as the Head feels our weakness and misery (Acts 9: 1-5, Hebrews 4: 15-16). If we are outside the church, Christ does not feel our weakness. If we throw away bitterness, wrath, anger, wrangle and slander, we can be friendly with others (Eph 4:31-32).
