Scripture Reading: Genesis 12:2-3
The word “synergy” comes from “syn,” meaning together, and “energy,” meaning power. It is the power of being together that saves others. We can do this (synergy) through the 25 answers. You should carefully refer to the messages from the recent Remnant Leader Retreat. You must also pray over these matters together.
▣ Introduction – Bartizan (Watchman)
Let us briefly examine a few things:
1. Covenant – Life, Work (Covenant)
God has given us the covenant. This must become the bartizan of my life, my studies, and my work. If other things have taken its place, we won’t even know why answers aren’t coming. This is called the Covenant.
2. Disaster (Vision)
Second, what we’ve shared with our remnants is the need to see disaster zones. You need a bartizan within you that can save disaster zones and overcome darkness. This is called Vision. It must always be within your prayer. Whether answers seem to come or not, you will receive the overall answer. That’s why all seven remnants saw this (disaster) and found the answer—they were unshaken. Simply put, Jesus took them to Mt. Olive and for 40 days spoke of Israel’s fall, Rome’s timeline, and all things. There was no reason to be shaken.
3. 24·25·Eternity (Dream)
Within this covenant and vision comes the 24 that is “being made.” Then follows the 25 and eternity—not something that disappears. This is called Dream. It’s different from the dreams unbelievers talk about. The dream of God’s covenant must be clear—24. We must help our remnants hold firmly to this. If your 24 is clear, the 25 will surely come. And then your studies and your work will remain in eternity. The dreams of the seven remnants were eternal—not passing things. “The day you apply the blood of the lamb, you will be set free”—that’s eternal.
4. Authority of the Air (Ephesians 2:2) (Image)
The fourth answer for our remnants: the forces of darkness have fully seized the authority of the air—Ephesians 2:2. They are creating cell phones, the metaverse—everything.
Universe
Now we and the remnants must open the age of the Universe that can save those under this authority of the air. How? By God’s power of creation. This is called Image. Just pray with this. For remnants, even just a little prayer in the morning after waking up and at night before sleeping will bring works. Why? Because the moments connected to the throne and penetrating the soul are important throughout the day—but especially in the morning and at night. One brain researcher even said that studying for 30 minutes before bed has greater effect than 8 hours of study during the day. For remnants and all of you, 10 to 30 minutes of prayer before sleeping can change the world.
5. Throne – Masterpiece (Practice)
The last part is important. “Heavenly power” is the power that comes from heaven. “Thronely power” is the power that comes from the throne. Right? It is eternal power—eternally. These three are very important. But this year’s theme is Thronely. With this power from the throne, we create masterpieces. How? Through prayer. Many people take prayer lightly, but prayer is the answer. Why? Because everything is imprinted within you. Your thoughts are the answer. Your level is the answer. Right? That’s why prayer is the answer. This is called Practice.
All of this (Introduction 1–5) is combined and referred to as CVDIP. This was the message given to Remnant Leaders so they can actually enjoy this through prayer and receive answers. It’s the same for adults—if you continue this prayer, works will arise. If you let go of the real things and hold onto the fake, you’ll end up serving unbelievers. Not just unbelievers—you’ll end up serving Satan. That makes no sense. So don’t worry—just hold onto this (introduction) covenant and begin praying now. From what I can see, things are urgent—so just go 24. Then the works will arise. Our remnants must absolutely hold to the covenant and move forward in victory.
▣ Main Message
1. Many People
When this is established, you can remain still and save many people. Right? Because there are answers. Isaac farmed for one year and reaped a hundredfold. Right? When others blocked and stole his well, God gave him the source of the spring. When many competitors attacked him out of jealousy, God gave him a vast land called Rehoboth. Why? Because world evangelization must be done. You must now stop everything else and enjoy this (introduction) 24 power. Starting now. When true answers come, you will be able to save many people.
2. Three Things
Second, what happens? If you possess this power, three kinds of answers come. How?
1) WITH
You receive the answer of God being with you. What could be greater than that?
2) Immanuel
Immanuel comes upon your field, your church, and your work.
3) Oneness
Even when something seemingly bad happens, whether good or bad, everything combines into Oneness and answers come. This is the answer you must receive.
3. [24] Prayer/Word
At this point, what begins to happen? When this blessing comes, you begin to enter into true (24) prayer. When 24 prayer begins, the Word begins to come alive. If a remnant enters into 24 prayer, they will survive anywhere. You don’t even need to worry about studies. Victory is guaranteed. Do not be deceived by lies anymore. If the remnant is in 24 prayer and Word, they are fine wherever they are. Just enjoy and wait. What happens then?
1) Together (Work)
To say this blessing is with me means that the Word and prayer will begin to work. “The word of the Lord came to Moses”—that’s it, right? “The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah”—finished.
2) Fulfillment
Then the Word will surely be fulfilled.
3) Witness
And without doing anything, you become a witness. You must possess this, and you must give it to the remnants. To what degree? To the point that unbelievers look at you and say, “God is alive. God is with your work.” That’s it. Right? People saw Joseph and said, “A man filled with the Spirit of the Lord!” Potiphar said, “The Lord is with you.” And not just that, but “The Lord is with you in all you do.”
Just enjoy this (introduction) and it will come. Don’t be deceived—how wonderful is it? When you enjoy this, health, answers, everything comes. Many people cling to the wrong things and run around, but there’s no need. If you enjoy this (introduction), everything follows. It’s truly unfortunate. People act like unbelievers, clinging to what doesn’t work, insisting it must. But what doesn’t work—doesn’t work. They bring back unreasonable theories they learned from unbelievers. “You can do it, just try harder.” That sounds right, but it’s not. There are things that just don’t work. If remnants hear this kind of talk, they’ll let go of the covenant and grab onto the wrong things.
Bartizan (Watchman)
Remnants must never be deceived. The covenant does not change. You must arise from within it. This (introduction) must become your bartizan. Only then can you be a watchman. You can’t shine the light if you have no bartizan, even if you’re capable. This (introduction) is the bartizan. God’s Word must become a bartizan within you. A vision that overcomes disaster must be firmly established in you. Right? Then the Dream that can be enjoyed 24, 25, and for eternity will take root. From then on, only two things remain. You gain power to overcome the authority of darkness. Soon, the age of the universe will come. You’ll see the power of the cosmos. And finally, you create masterpieces with the power of the throne.
You cannot accomplish world evangelization with anything else. At most, you’ll eat to survive. Right? Unbelievers do that too. If you struggle without salvation, you’ll eat and then die. But that’s not us. We must accomplish world evangelization. That’s how this (main point) comes out.
▣ Conclusion
Let’s conclude. Jesus concluded like this:
[1 Christ, 3 Kingdom, 8 Holy Spirit]
The resurrected Christ. In verse 3, the kingdom of God. In verse 8, only the Holy Spirit. “With this power, you will be My witnesses to the ends of the earth.”
John 14:26 [All Things]
What happens when this (introduction) bartizan is firmly set within you? He will remind you of all things. All things. When the bartizan is built, while you are praying, the Holy Spirit will guide you and remind you of all things.
John 16:13
John 16:13 says, “He will guide you into all truth.” That’s right. You don’t need to worry about the future. He will remind you. Others may say there’s a problem with your work, but God will reveal the future and give you the answer. It’s guaranteed.
Before I started the building project, what answer did I receive? The answer of the three courtyards: 237, Healing, Summit. That’s all we need to do. The world is now preparing this in full force. If our church prepares well, we can help many people. In the end, your work will become the three courtyards. Right? The 237 will come there. The 237 will be healed and raised as Summits.
As I mentioned during the session with the elders, we must pray for our nation. Korea’s public officials and politics move too slowly and are too underdeveloped. All developed countries have immigration policies—we don’t. Even when foreigners come, they can’t stay. Japan attracts global talent and holds onto them strategically. That’s smart. The U.S. tries to block illegal immigration, but it is a nation built on immigration. That’s a developed nation.
I gave up my green card, but I received it within three months of applying. They already knew who I was. When I returned it, I said I was living in Korea, and they said they knew. So I told them I’d give it up. I even persuaded Pastor Jung Eun-Joo: “Let’s give them up together.” Why? Because we had to lie. Every time we entered the U.S., we had to lie—say we were living there when we weren’t. They always asked me, “How long have you been in Korea?” I had to lie. “Two months.” Elder Jung said without blinking, “Two weeks.” I said, “Can we keep living like this? Even if the green card helps with world evangelization, this is wrong. Let’s return it.” Elder Jung said, “Let’s do it.” That’s how advanced their immigration policy is.
Our country doesn’t think things through. Foreign talents come, but they can’t stay. In Korea, to stay, they have to lie and force their way through. Their families can’t even come. They can’t see their kids. What kind of country is this? It’s so behind. It’s heartbreaking. We must pray and do something. How can we accomplish world evangelization like this? Since people don’t understand, God sends them as slaves. But our future generations must not be sent as slaves—they must go as missionaries.
The answer is simple. Even if you just pray properly during worship today, works will arise. If you properly hold onto God’s Word and covenant, works will arise. May today be a blessed day, and may it be God’s day. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ.
Prayer. God, we thank You. May the works of Your Word arise in every region, every district, every school, and every workplace today. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.
