The Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (33)
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-8
Thank you. Today’s title is “Why is there no answer?” Prayer should be answered, but why is it not? We need to take note of this.
▣ Introduction
[ First things to do ]
It is because we missed what must be done first. What should we do first? What should our remnants do first? If we don’t miss that, answers will come.
[ First things to know ]
Before the first things to do, there are first things to know. Listen carefully—if you don’t know this, you will lose almost everything. There are first things to know.
Now, before us, problems come, don’t they? Answers come too, don’t they? But if you don’t know what is important, you will lose almost everything. We have church leaders here too, and church leaders must make many decisions in the church. Then what should they know first? You must know that to make correct decisions. Then the first things to do will come. And then answers follow. Answers follow. So what is the first thing to do? Right now pastors must preach sermons, but if they don’t know the first thing to do, how can the sermon be accurate?
[ Prayer ] [ Word ] [ World evangelization ]
Now, a problem has come? An answer has come? Such things are before us. But prayer answers, fulfillment of the Word, works of salvation, and world evangelization are happening now. Aside from this, nothing else is really an answer. Problems coming are not problems. They are processes. But people keep missing this. When problems happen in your church, what do you do? Since they don’t know this, they keep missing it. So at the session they make decisions, but those are wrong decisions. Not bad decisions, but wrong ones. Later on, with much time passed, you’ll realize. I’ve kept telling you, haven’t I? You faced hardship? No—it is a process.
Now, let’s take Joseph, a remnant you know well, as an example. He was sold to human traffickers and dragged away. That is not a problem. It’s a process. Within that, three things began to be fulfilled. He became governor. That is not the answer. He kept saying the same thing: becoming governor was simply part of world evangelization. Do you understand what this means? Since people missed this, they judged wrongly. “Oh no, our church has a problem.” But while God is leading you through the process of blessing, you say, “Oh no, a problem has come!” Frankly speaking, when a remnant says, “Why did my parents die early and leave us to suffer?”—the answer is, “You are a great person who does not even need parents. God only gives you what is necessary. It is all a process.”
Now, this is not just talk. If you miss this, no matter how much you pray, it will not work. Because you are seeing it wrongly. If Joseph thought, “Why did my brothers do this to me?” he would have gone the wrong way. If he thought, “Why am I being put in prison when I did nothing wrong? Just wait and see!” then he would have gone another way. He might be right, but he would have gone another way. Joseph knew what the true way was. Even when standing before Pharaoh, he said the same thing. Even as a slave, he said the same thing.
(1) First confirmation (CVDIP)
At that time, what is important is the first confirmation. What is it? At that moment, CVDIP comes forth. The Word is already shown—Covenant. You already hold this important thing—then Vision. You already enjoy beforehand—Dream. You already conquer beforehand—Image. You already experience beforehand—Practice. This is CVDIP.
(2) First field
From then on, what happens? Not just confirmation, but you begin to see the first field. This follows.
(3) First preparation
And what else? You begin to see what God has already prepared. That is the disciple.
So if you only know these first things, everything else follows. But if you don’t know this, if you don’t know the first things to know, then when problems come you get discouraged, and when small answers come you get carried away. Sometimes you chase after what is not even the answer. King Saul chased David around to kill him—that was chasing after something that was not the answer. That’s why he perished. You must absolutely remember this.
▣ Main point_ [ The start of actual answers ]
Then what remains now? The start of actual answers.
1. Acts 2:1–4 The flow of prayer
The first of the five things. The flow of prayer. If you understand this, the flow of prayer becomes clear.
2. Acts 2:14–21 The flow of the Word
This is what you must absolutely enjoy. The flow of the Word. You devote yourself with the flow of prayer, and you devote yourself with the flow of the Word. Pastors preach with the flow of the Word.
3. Acts 2:9–11 The flow of evangelism
Acts 2:9–11. What is this? The flow of evangelism. This is what you actually see.
4. Acts 2:17–18, 46–47 The flow of the field
Acts 2:17–18, 46–47. The flow of the field. This is what you see.
5. Acts 2:10 The flow of the nation
Now Acts 2:10. The flow of a nation. This is how you enjoy answers. One day, Priscilla and Aquila gave much offering and served the Lord, and they became magnates moving the world. One day, though they thought they had worked in hardship, they became those who conquered the world, who conquered Rome.
1. Acts 2:1–4 The flow of prayer
Now, within the flow of prayer, you must remember three things.
1) Prayer topics given. You must think of the topic God gave. Most of the time, we are holding onto something God did not give.
2) Prayer topics to be given. Then you see it—the topic God will give. Chasing after something else is not it. If you know what you received, you will know what will be given.
3) The true answer. This is knowing the true answer that comes out now. Always remember: God’s Word, world evangelization, and prayer answers—this is the true answer. Nothing else is. In no case do you need to be discouraged.
2. Acts 2:14–21 The flow of the Word
Now, the flow of the Word. You must absolutely know this.
1) Eternity – 12. What are the eternal problems and answers? The 12 problems and the solution. The 12 problems came from Satan, and the solution is Christ.
2) Church – 5. The 5 things the church lost hold of and that became problems. You know these 5 things without explanation. If you don’t know this, you don’t know the flow of the Word.
3) Today – fulfillment. From then on, today’s Word is fulfilled. That alone is the answer.
3. Acts 2:9–11 The flow of evangelism
Now, the flow of evangelism becomes clear.
1) 237–5000. The level of your studies and your work must match the 237 nations and the 5000 tribes.
2) RT. You must match with remnants. You must match with TCK, CCK, and NCK. You are set to match with them.
3) That timetable. So you are inside that timetable. “When the day of Pentecost had fully come.” “I the Lord will hasten it in its time.” That is how it happens. So when you hear the message or think about it, you don’t get impatient. You find peace. You enjoy.
4. Acts 2:17–18, 46–47 The flow of the field
Now, the flow of the field becomes visible. You must absolutely see it with three things.
1) Guidance. God will guide you by the Holy Spirit.
2) Works. By the works of the Holy Spirit, He will crush the Nephilim.
3) Fruits. By the fruits of the Holy Spirit, these three will be sustained. This is the flow of the field.
5. Acts 2:10 The flow of the nation
Finally, a nation.
1) Matthew 28:16–20. There are many important words here, but what is the key word? Disciple. He told us to make disciples.
2) Mark 16:15–20. Everything is important here, but what is it? Healing. He told us to heal.
3) Acts 1:1–8. Everything is important here, but what is the most important? The real power that will be given to you. “Only by the Holy Spirit.” That is how world evangelization happens. Otherwise, it cannot be done. “Only by the Holy Spirit.” To our remnants. This is the flow.
▣ Conclusion_ Future
Then the future begins to appear. How does it look?
1. 7 bartizans (Word)
While praying for the 7 bartizans, the future becomes visible. Especially the Word becomes visible. Then it is finished. The Word is present. When you listen to your pastor’s sermon, when the pastor goes out to preach, the Word that is fulfilled comes out.
2. 7 journeys (Fulfillment)
While continuing to pray for the 7 journeys, God’s Word is fulfilled.
3. 7 guideposts (Revival)
While simply praying for the 7 guideposts, true revival begins. Your work strangely begins to come alive. True revival. It is not the fake kind where you think, “I did well once, I failed another time.” This is true revival. Nothing can block it.
At this point, you see the final thing. You absolutely see it through the scattered disciples.
