In His hands, God holds the seven stars. He bears the seven Spirits, He has seven eyes, unlocks the seven seals and opens up the scroll. He wields the seven plagues and holds the seven bowls. The myriad of creatures He has fashioned and all the things He's brought to completion render praise and glory unto Him and raise His throne on high. Almighty God, glorious and true! You are everything!
God's wisdom never changes, God's wonder never changes, God's righteousness never changes, God's majesty never changes. God's substance never changes, and what He has and what He is shall never change.
Christian Praise Song | Love God Forever "I've Finally Beheld God" | Walk With God
I
I came to Your presence that day, my heart filled with yearnings so deep. While my eyes blurred with tears, Your hand caressed. Grief and sorrow poured out my heart. The past flashed before my eyes; grief and bitterness clashed in sighs. God, I give to You my love.
God has a 6,000-year management plan, split into three phases, each called an age. Age of Law first, then Age of Grace, and the Age of Kingdom is the final phase. While God's work differs in each, it all accords to what mankind needs, or to be more precise, it accords to the tricks used by Satan while battling Him. The purpose of God's work is Satan's defeat, to reveal God's wisdom and almightiness, and to expose all of Satan's tricks, thereby saving man from its domain, thereby saving man from its domain.
God’s Name Will Be Magnified Among the Gentile Nations
1. The purpose of God’s judgment is to encourage man’s obedience; the purpose of God’s chastisement is to allow for man’s transformation. Though God’s work is for His management’s sake, none of what He does isn’t good to man. God wants the lands beyond Israel to obey as the Israelites did, to make them into real men, so that in the lands beyond Israel God’s foothold shall be gained. This is the management of God. It’s His work in the lands of the Gentiles.
1. God’s work in passing judgment is not, in two or three words, to make clear man’s whole nature, but slowly to reveal, deal with, prune him over time. Such forms of treatment can’t be changed for common words, only for truth, which lies beyond man’s compass. Only such work is deemed judgment; only such judgment can make man obey God in heart and mouth, within, without, and truly come to know Him.
The Work of Judgment in the Last Days Is to End the Age
I The last days is but a name of an age, like the Ages of Law and Grace, not the last years or months, and differs a lot from those two ages. The last days' work isn't done in Israel, but it's carried out among the Gentiles. It is the conquest of all nations before God's throne. And God's glory will fill the whole cosmos. It will be proclaimed to all nations, and through all generations. Every creature will see the glory God has gained on earth.
II
The last days are a time of conquest, not the guidance of all people's life. But instead it is the conclusion of mankind's undying and endless suffering. The last days are not like the long years when God worked in Judea and Israel for several thousand years until His second incarnation, but rather brief. The people of the last days encounter the Redeemer coming back in the flesh, and receive God's personal working and words in those brief last days just before the end. The last days, final end of an era, the completion of God's 6000-year-plan. The last days, the end of man's journey, end of man's journey of suffering. But not all can enter a new age. Human life won't continue the same. For it is of no significance to God's great plans. For if mankind persisted, they'd be devoured by the devil, and their souls lost in Satan's hands. III The last days, the time is up. God will not continue longer; He won't delay. The last days, Satan's defeat. God will take back all His glory. He won't delay. God's work lasts but for six thousand years. Satan's control over all mankind shall persist no further than these six millennia. Every soul belonging to God will escape the sea of suffering, and God's entire work on earth will end. Never more will God become flesh on earth. Never more His Spirit work on earth. He will remake mankind, a holy mankind, into His faithful dwelling place on earth. The last days, final end of an era, the completion of God's 6000-year-plan. The last days, the end of man's journey, end of man's journey of suffering. But not all can enter a new age. Human life won't continue the same. For it is of no significance to God's great plans. For if mankind persisted, they'd be devoured by the devil, and their souls lost in Satan's hands. The last days, final end of an era, the completion of God's 6000-year-plan. The last days, the end of man's journey, end of man's journey of suffering. The last days. The last days. The last days.

The seven thunders roll, shaking up the world, rending through the sky, changing heaven and earth. Piercing is the sound. Where can man run and hide? Heaven and earth are changed by thunder and lightning. Man lies dying. A fierce storm rolls in across the universe, fast as thunderbolt; heavy rain pours in. Each corner of the earth is bathed in this storm and nothing impure remains, oh, oh. The whole world is washed and nothing unclean stands. Who can hide from the stormy rain? Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. When destruction comes, all enemies will fall, defeated helpless into the raging torrent. They're swiftly taken to their deserved end, defeated hopeless, rushed away to their death.
II
The seven thunders roll. God's purposes are clear. Evil will be punished with gusts of weeping. Some wake from their dreams, ponder their wicked schemes, only to hurry back to the foot of God's throne. They don't hesitate, hurry to God's throne. They do not indulge in their deceit and crime, but repent just in time. God is righteous and God is loving and God is merciful, oh, oh, God is trustworthy, He's God of majesty. Someday the earth will see, oh, oh, God is a burning fire. God is a burning fire. He will show no mercy, when judgment is in His path. From His royal throne God gazes down, searching deeply into hearts and minds, saving all those who seek after Him, sincerely seek after Him. Whoever loves God above other things, knows God's heart with understanding, follows Him all the way to the end, God will save him eternally.
III
The seven thunders roll all throughout the earth. Man gets salvation and comes to God's throne. They seek to survive in the light of life, come worship and bow down to God Almighty! The seven thunders roll, lightning flashes down, proclaiming to one and all judgment has begun. He who speaks not his heart, who's doubtful and careless, and refuses God's will, judgment surely awaits them, awaits them! God is righteous and God is loving and God is merciful, oh, oh, God is trustworthy, He's God of majesty. Someday the earth will see, oh, oh, God is a burning fire. God is a burning fire. He will show no mercy, when judgment is in His path. Let the whole universe know the truth, Almighty God is the only God worth bowing to. Who can fight against God or oppose Him? There is none who can judge or revile Him. Every heart and tongue will be allegiant. Every nation will surrender before God. Today and tomorrow and eternally, they will bow down to God forever! They will bow down to God forever! They will bow down, they will bow down, they will bow down to God forever!

"I Will Love God to Eternity" (Official Music Video)
I O God! Your words have led me back to You. I accept training in Your kingdom day and night. So many trials and pains, so many tribulations. Many times I shed tears and felt heart-stricken, and many times have fallen into the trap of Satan. But You have never departed from me. You led me through many hardships, You kept me through many dangers. Now I know that You have loved me.

So many people believe, but so few understand what faith in God really means, what they need to do to beat with God's heart. So many know the word "God," know phrases like the "work of God," but they don't know Him, nor what He really does.
The Truth Behind God's Work in the Age of Kingdom | Almighty God
I
If you remain in the Age of Grace, you will never know God's own disposition, or be free from corrupt disposition. And if you live in abundance of grace, but don't know how to know and please God, pitifully believe Him but never gain Him. After you read God's word, and you've experienced all His works in the Age of Kingdom, the dreams you held for many years will all come true. You'll feel you've finally seen God, face to face.
I
God is the source of the life of man; heaven and earth live by His power. Nothing alive can free itself from God's rule and authority. It doesn't matter who you are, everyone must obey God, submit to His dominion, to His control and commandments!
That God has become flesh shakes the religious world, upsets the religious order, and stirs up the souls of all who long for God's appearance. Who does not marvel at this? Who does not long to see God? God has spent years among man, but man is simply unaware of this. Today, God Himself has appeared to renew His old love with man.
II
After He left from Judea, God vanished without a trace. People long to see Him again, but never have they expected to reunite with Him here and today. How could this not bring back memories of the past? Two thousand years ago, Simon son of Jonah met Lord Jesus, and ate with the Lord at the same table. Years of following deepened his love for Him. He loved Jesus to the bottom of his heart. God has spent years among man, but man is simply unaware of this. Today, God Himself has appeared to renew His old love with man, to renew His old love with man.

I wanted to cry, but no place felt right.
I wanted to sing, but no song was found.
I wanted to express the love of a created being.
Searching high and low, but no words could say, could say just how I feel.
Practical and true God, the love inside my heart.
I lift my hands in praise, I rejoice that You came into this world.
Love is a pure emotion, pure without a blemish. Use your heart, use your heart to love and feel and care. Love doesn't set conditions or barriers or distance. Use your heart, use your heart to love and feel and care. If you love you don't deceive, grumble, turn your back, look to get something in return. If you love you'd sacrifice, accept hardship and be one with God in harmony.
