I.　The move of God to carry out His economy is by the high and awesome wheel—Ezek. 1:15-21:

A.　The wheel in Ezekiel 1 indicates a move with a purpose:

1.　The move by the wheel is not an ordinary but a special move with a purpose.

2.　If we express the Lord and have the proper coordination, the move of the Lord will be with us.

B.　If we would have the wheel, we need to be the proper living creatures:

1.　The four living creatures are not only for the expression of the Lord but also for the move of the Lord.

2.　The Lord moves on the earth by them.

C.　The wheels are at the side of the faces of the living creatures—v. 15:

1.　If we would have the Lord's move, we must first live out the Lord, expressing Him.

2.　If we live Christ and express Christ, we will have the wheel of God's move.

D.　The wheels have the appearance of beryl—v. 16a:

1.　In Daniel 10:6 beryl is the appearance of the Lord when He is moving.

2.　The move of the wheels is the appearance of the Lord.

E.　The wheels have the same appearance—v. 16b:

1.　Since all the moves bear the same appearance of the Lord, the appearance of all the wheels is the same.

2.　The move of God should have the same appearance in every church.

F.　The wheels go in four directions and are high and awesome—vv. 17-18a:

1.　The move in four directions indicates a move in coordination.

2.　The wheel in every church should be so high that it is awesome.

G.　The wheels are full of eyes—v. 18b.

1.　If we are one with the Lord for His move on earth, we will be full of eyes; that is, we will have insight and foresight.

2.　The more we are in the Lord's move, the more we will be enlightened and the more we will be able to see.

H.　The wheels look like a wheel within a wheel—v. 16c:

1.　This indicates that within our move there is the Lord's move.

2.　The inner wheel is the source of power for our moving.

I.　The wheels follow the living creature—v. 19:

1.　When the living creatures move, the wheels move.

2.　God's move depends on our moving.

J.　The Spirit is in the wheels—v. 20:

1.　The wheels follow the living creatures, the living creatures follow the Spirit, and the Spirit is in the wheels.

2.　This indicates that in God's move we are one with the Lord and He is one with us.

II.　The move of God by the wheels is with a clear sky, the throne, and a rainbow—Ezek. 1:22-28a:

A.　Above the four living creatures is a sky—a firmament, or an expanse—like a terrible crystal—v. 22:

1.　In our spiritual experience we should always have a clear, open, expanding, and stable sky.

2.　To have a clear sky means that there is nothing between us and God and between us and one another.

3.　If we would have a clear sky, we need to have thorough fellowship with the Lord vertically and clear fellowship with one another horizontally.

B.　Above the clear sky there is a throne, and the One sitting on the throne has the appearance of a man—vv. 26-27:

1.　Whenever we have a clear sky in our Christian life and in our church life, the throne will be there.

2.　The Lord's presence is with the throne; His presence cannot be separated from His throne.

3.　To have the throne in a clear sky means that in our spiritual experience we are completely submissive to God's authority and administration.

4.　If we have the throne above a clear sky, God will not only rule over us but will also accomplish His purpose in us, with us, and through us.

5.　The One sitting on the throne is the Man-God, the union of God and man.

C.　If we have a clear sky with the throne and if we experience the Man-God on the throne, we will have the appearance of a rainbow—a sign of God's faithfulness—v. 28:

1.　The primary colors of the rainbow are blue, red, yellow, which respectively signify God's righteousness, holiness, and glory.

2.　We need to have the reality of this rainbow wrought into us so that we will have the appearance of a rainbow bearing God's testimony and declaring God's faithfulness.

3.　The New Jerusalem has the appearance of a rainbow—Rev. 21:19-20.

4.　When this rainbow appears, God's eternal purpose will have been accomplished, and God will have the fulfillment of His heart's desire.
