Genesis 1:26-27. Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image, in our likeness, so that they may rule over the fish in the sea and the birds in the sky, over the livestock and all the wild animals, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.”
27 So God created mankind in his own image,
in the image of God he created them;
male and female he created them.
▣ Introduction – The 7 Journeys
It would be so good if you could meditate deeply on one of the 7 journeys each day. Isn’t the most important thing for you the answer to prayer? Then know that these 7 journeys did not come about randomly but were discovered through the entire field of evangelism in the Bible, so they are important to consider. At the very least, you should do it once a week. Or devote one Sunday to it properly. On Sundays, it is especially necessary to put aside other events and go deep into the Word and take time to organize and reflect.
1. Answer
When you do this, truly important answers come. Accurate answers come as evidence that you have seen the Word correctly and deeply.
2. Unprecedented-and-never-again
These aren’t just any answers, but unprecedented answers that others may not understand. Yet we tend to miss out on these and chase after other things—that’s a loss. You are important, so you must see the answers God gives you.
3. God’s Plan
At this point, God’s plan becomes visible.
4. Me, Mine, and My Field
Then finally, you begin to see the person God created you to be, what is truly yours, and the field God prepared for you. Even a few minutes meditating on the Word brings answers. You’ve experienced it, right? Sometimes you just happen to receive grace—that may seem small, but it impacts your entire life. Even when you gain insight during a sermon, that too has an effect. So if you put into practice this introductory part either on Sundays or daily in prayer, change will naturally occur. You must do this. In my case, I would say it’s a blessing—I’m always delivering messages, so I end up seeing many things. I believe you will experience the same. If you find yourself in a position where you must constantly deliver messages, you’ll naturally encounter many spiritual truths.
5. The 62 Lifelong Points
The entire picture of the 62 lifelong points becomes visible at this stage. When the blessing described in this introduction is established, you will know what directions to take when incidents arise. Without it, you’ll be shaken this way and that depending on the situation. But if you have this answer in place, you’ll gain the strength to face even major problems. It’s extremely important. So I encourage you to try it. Going through the entire Bible may feel vague in some ways, so use the 7 journeys—it’s a summary.
The first journey is the mystery of the Triune God being with you. That’s fundamental. Then, there are the 10 mysteries of thriving anywhere. It’s actually difficult to meditate on all 10 in a single day, so take one at a time and go deep. What’s next? There are the 10 platforms that keep you unshaken under any circumstances. Then you begin to have conviction. The 5 assurances. The 9 flows that allow you to prevail over any situation. When you understand all of these, your 62 life points come into view. From that point on, the blessings of the throne you’ve only heard about in Scripture begin to come upon you. You can go deep into each of these journeys one by one.
▣ Main Message
1. Recovering Yourself (Restoring with the Gospel)
So the first thing is recovering yourself. What does it mean to recover the true you? You must recover with the gospel. If you try to recover with anything else, it only brings suffering. It must be the gospel. In some cases, if remnants go out into the world before being restored by the gospel, they become very confused and struggle. For example, before becoming a doctor, if I have not firmly rooted myself in the gospel, then studying and stepping into the field will be very difficult. There is no time. It often turns out that way. Or someone studies to the point of exhaustion and becomes a judge, but if they are not firmly rooted in the gospel and prayer, the workload is overwhelming. There are so many complex cases. Some cases come with a stack of files over 50 cm high that must be read, and someone’s life depends on it. You can’t ignore it. There’s no time. That’s why you must quickly be restored by the gospel.
1) Genesis 1:27
That is precisely the image of God in Genesis 1:27—recovering that. A fish taken out of water is already dead. People in the raw fish business know that wild-caught fish die within three days. Likewise, a flower cut for arrangement is already dead. How much more so for a person who has lost the image of God? They are no better than animals—just living to eat and survive. What a loss.
2) Genesis 3:4–5, Genesis 1:2
In Genesis 3:4–5, Satan took the image of God away from us. As a result, we reverted to Genesis 1:2—darkness, emptiness, and chaos. Don’t we often say, “It’s pitch black ahead”—darkness. “No matter what I do, it’s meaningless”—emptiness. “What do I do now?”—chaos. That’s what Genesis 1:2 is. We must escape it quickly.
3) Genesis 3:15
In Genesis 3:15, God gave us a way to restore immediately. Because Genesis 3:4–5 keeps trying to destroy you, God quickly provided the answer. That’s why salvation is not by works but by faith—believing in what God has given. Yet many believers still can’t distinguish between faith and works in receiving the gospel.
2. Concentration (The First Journey)
Now, reviving myself through concentration means going on the first journey, following the Word step by step—how thankful we should be.
1) Genesis 1:3
Restore the light in Genesis 1:3.
2) Genesis 1:26
Also, Genesis 1:26 shows the Triune God working together—“Let us make man in our image.” The Triune God was already working.
3) Genesis 1:27, 2:7
This grace comes into you. “God gave life and breathed His spirit.” What greater blessing is there? If you enjoy this deeply on Sundays and every day, great answers will come. You have been given grace and are worthy of receiving such blessings. Then, naturally, the power of the throne begins to come. This is the image of God and the answer of 25.
3. Genesis 1:28 – Spiritual Masterpiece
From here on, it begins to appear. Genesis 1:28—“Subdue and rule”—that’s the true answer. Your children must study within this blessing for true spiritual masterpieces to emerge. Honestly, trying to study without this strength is extremely difficult. That’s why even among top-performing students, there are many spiritual problems. There’s no one to help or talk to. In America, many Harvard students are mentally broken, but no one talks about it—it’s very real. So, business and academics must also come from here. For our young adults, entering the workplace is not easy. But if you are equipped with this strength, things will be different. That’s what matters. This strength is invisible, so others neither know it nor can take it away. You don’t need to show it off at work or anywhere—it’s just yours.
1) Meditation Movement (3·6·11)
The three organizations have created the meditation movement—this is the problem. Even Christians don’t know that they’ve restored 3·6·11 (Genesis 3, 6, 11). It’s a revival of the movement that departs from God—the Nephilim movement, the Tower of Babel movement. It’s serious. Only we speak about this with urgency—nowhere else. It’s real. An American scholar heard a remnant talking about it and was shocked. “Where did you hear that?” It’s that serious. That professor even said, “I want to meet your pastor.” There are professors like that—it’s serious.
2) Holy Meditation Movement
That’s why we must restore this through the holy meditation movement. It’s a word you must hold onto. If you don’t experience it, you can’t pass it to the next generation. The secular meditation movement makes man the master; the holy movement makes God the master. Which is right? Meditation movement is the Nephilim movement; the holy movement is the Word movement. They are completely different.
3) 3·9·3
This leads to 3·9·3: the Triune God, the 9 blessings of the throne, and the 3 ages. You must naturally enjoy this. Why? You’re entitled to enjoy it. If you don’t, that’s strange. It’s normal for an idol worshiper not to know these blessings. But if you’re entitled to them and don’t enjoy them, that’s the real issue. A police officer not doing their job—that’s strange. Shouldn’t a police officer be doing police work? If they’re just wandering around with thieves, that’s absurd, and that’s harder to do.
▣ Conclusion – Prayer
At this point, we can draw a simple conclusion. In addition to deep meditation, everything—being here, sitting here, thinking, seeing, hearing, feeling—becomes prayer. It’s amazing. Everything you see becomes prayer. Though it seems simple, it has a tremendous impact. Something far better than incidental answers comes. Your imprint, root, and nature change when everything becomes prayer. That’s what matters.
Healing and Power
From this point on, two things come: healing and power. That’s the answer of all answers. Receiving this or that is important, but receiving God’s power—that’s the greatest answer. Stop listening to human voices and firmly hold to God’s Word. Remnants—whether you go to school or meet many people—receive broadly but quickly transcend it and hold to the answer.
When you go, answers will already be there. That’s the most important answer.
Joseph was sold as a slave—he went, and the answer was already there. If he had gone to prison because he stole, there wouldn’t be much of an answer. But he went to prison, though innocent—and the answer was there. This is very important.
So today, even if only on Sunday, begin to pray for this. The great answer of 25 will come upon you. Repeating the same words and concentrating are different. Repeating phrases mindlessly and true concentration are not the same. Even with the same words, concentration brings healing, power, and transformation.
Sometimes people with spiritual problems, feeling frustrated, go here and there. Some think if a pastor prays for them, it’ll help. Maybe that’s not bad—but if you slowly begin to enjoy this answer, it will naturally be resolved. Never forget that. I bless you in the name of the Lord that today will be a day of deep prayer with healing and power through concentration. Let us pray.
Prayer. Today again, may this be a day of blessing as You give us Your Word and let us hear the voice of heaven. Let us not stand before men but enjoy the power of the throne within the mystery of the Triune God. In Jesus Christ’s name we pray. Amen.
