Scripture Reading: Exodus 14:1-14

“The LORD will fight for you.” There is no power stronger than God, so, “The LORD will fight for you.” It is a passage we know very well, but we may misunderstand it.

▣ Introduction
The very first thing we must know is that God led the Israelites to the Red Sea even though there were many good roads He could have taken them on. This is very important. In verses 1 and 2, God led them there. The great hardships that come to you are brought by God. It is not that God lacked the power to block them; He brought them in order to give you what is truly real. So in front of the sea, the Red Sea was blocking their way. Knowing this, the Egyptian army came after them. There were 600 chariots, and then all the other horses and charioteers were fully mobilized. They were coming to kill the Israelites. What could they do? It was truly a dead-end situation. If they went back, they would be killed by the Egyptians; if they went forward, they would drown in the water. They were in such a situation. But who led them to the Red Sea? The LORD did. You must remember this. It was to give them what is truly real. We keep thinking in the wrong way: “We have met this kind of crisis—what should we do?”

1. A dead-end situation
So at this time, it became a complete dead-end. They could neither go forward nor backward. At this time, two kinds of people appeared. As it says in today’s passage, most people grumbled. They said everything they wanted to say. “Why did you bring us here?” In other words, “We are suffering like this because we chose the wrong leader.” When in fact, God had brought them there. So while such a reaction arose, there was also a small number of people who prayed. There is no such thing as a dead-end situation.

2. Only one way
For us, there is only one way. We must cross the Red Sea. If we cannot cross it, we must die there. It is “do or die.” Right? God’s plan does not change. It was there that they grumbled, trying desperately to stay alive. In the end, those people could not enter Canaan. The ones who were newly born and the ones who held the covenant all went in.

3. The miracle – a bonus
So, as you know, God performed the miracle of parting the Red Sea. He let Israel cross. So this path where they experienced the Red Sea was, for the Israelites, a bonus path. It sounds easy in words, but if you are actually in that situation, it is almost like death. In fact, it is the same for Busan, for our Ulsan, for Changwon, and also for Imse. Many buildings are being constructed. We must have the faith to cross the Red Sea. Right? It is not a simple matter. At the Red Sea the question is, “Will you die or live?” Then the answer is simple. “Will you die, or will you build the temple?” Then we say, “Oh, we will build the temple,” and the blessings overflow. “Will you die, or drown in the Red Sea, or live?” Simply put, God is leading us in such a way. There are three reasons.

[ Egypt ] He would completely destroy the Egyptian army. Right? They had to all be drowned and killed.

[ Faith ] What else? He would plant faith in the Israelites. Since this tremendous, actual event took place, what do you think happened?

[ Reputation ] This news spread throughout the whole land. In this way, God had already begun. This is very important for us.

▣ Main
We must truly receive answers. We must have the faith to cross the Red Sea. But what is even more important is in the main point. In verse 1, God said, “Go there.” “Go to the Red Sea. Set up camp there.” Then in verses 3 and 4, God hardened Pharaoh’s heart. “Go attack Israel.” This is the right answer. Without Israel knowing at all, God led them to the Red Sea in order to give them true grace. And to punish the wicked to the very end, God drove them to the Red Sea. Moses knew this and spoke boldly. Moses understood this. He spoke boldly: “Stand firm and see the deliverance the LORD will bring you today. The LORD will fight for you.” Why was that?

1. The covenant – The promise (Exodus–Canaan) First, God’s covenant does not change. It is God’s promise. When He gives the covenant to us, it becomes a promise. The Exodus and the entry into Canaan are God’s absolute plan. Building the three courtyards in Ulsan, Changwon, Busan, and Seoul for evangelism is God’s absolute plan.

1) Vision – Exodus 3:8, 2:1–10, 3:18–20 Already here, what did God give in advance? He gave the covenant as a vision. When He called Moses at Horeb, in Exodus 3:8, what did He say? “I will give you the land of Canaan.” That is it, right? When He first called Moses at Horeb, He said, “I have seen the misery of My people Israel,” and He promised, “I will give that land to you.” Moses knew this. Even before this, in Exodus 2:10, Moses had already heard something from his mother. It matched exactly. As she nursed him and finally sent him away, his mother said, “You must save Israel.” At that time, God said, “Go and offer the blood sacrifice. I will be with you with a mighty hand.”

2) Before the event He gave it before the event. In verse 1, “Then the LORD said to Moses…” He gave it in advance. Then in verse 2, what does He say? “Set up camp at such-and-such place.” He said it. That place was right in front of the Red Sea. Then in verse 4 He says, “I will harden Pharaoh’s heart so he will pursue them.” God’s amazing plan lay inside this. In the situation where you think you must panic, God’s amazing plan of blessing is contained. For unbelievers, it is a place of death. They are anxious. For God’s chosen people, it is a place of life. Right? The flood of Noah’s day was an event of death for those who were not God’s children. But for those who entered the ark, they lived because of the flood. Some people died because of the flood, and some people lived because of the flood. You must have absolute assurance. The difficult, dead-end situation before you is actually the way for you to live.

3) The evidence And God spoke of the evidence. “I will be with you; stand still and see the salvation of the LORD. I will let you cross this sea. The LORD will do it.” After Israel came out, the Egyptian army went in after them. The waters closed in and drowned them. And that is not all.

2. Experiencing God’s power Why did God drive the Israelites to the Red Sea and allow Egypt to chase them there? God did this. It was so that they would experience His power. We must experience the power of God.

1) Answer You must not experience with disasters, but experience with answers. It is the same event, but different. Look. Egypt experienced God through destruction—“Ah, this God is real,” that way. Israel experienced Him through answers.

2) The Word Many people experience God’s power through suffering, but we must experience it through the Word. When you hear testimonies of people who were in great suffering and later received answers—there is nothing wrong with that. Right? But there is nothing especially good about it either. I tell people not to put remnants under those who have had a lot of strange experiences. Right? It is best when nothing happens. The best is to realize through the Word. Right? Your children must realize as they go forward and receive answers, not by getting injured and going to the repair shop. Things get complicated then, right?

3) Prayer Among those who were grumbling, there were people who were praying. These are the ones who were led to experience God’s power. You must absolutely remember this. The Red Sea. It is an event we must talk about a lot. If we understand the situation that confronted them at the Red Sea and the power of God that parted it, there is nothing we cannot do. Why is it like this?

2. Assurance for the future It is assurance for the future.
1) The wilderness God was saying He would lead them through the wilderness. The wilderness is originally a place of suffering. But, “Look at how I parted the Red Sea!”

2) Preparation And since they would be in the wilderness for a long time, they must make all preparations with God’s power. The key among them is the tabernacle. Right? The center of everything is the tabernacle. That is why we say we must stake our lives and prepare the temple properly.

3) Conquest Further, there is a greater assurance. During the 400 years Israel was in Egypt, the land of Canaan had been taken by all kinds of mixed peoples. God was saying He would make them conquer Canaan. This meaning is contained in what happened before the Red Sea. Whenever you face difficulty, quickly find the covenant. Right? Do not be deceived. God shakes you in order to bless you. He is different from Satan. God is not Satan. Right? God shakes you in order to make you live. So, by passing through the Red Sea, He gave this perfect answer (main points 1, 2, and 3). This covenant is yours. You must hold firmly to this covenant and pray. Think: “What would happen if I were to die right now?” Or: “How much longer will I live?” You must have this forum. For example, if ten years pass, your situation will be completely different. Right? In ten years, people change. Generations change. Think what it would be like if you truly faced a great crisis. We must go forward with this faith (main points 1, 2, and 3). We must go with God’s power. At the recent conference, I mentioned this: when I went to Japan, Missionary Kang Myeong-ju came to meet me, and in our conversation she said something like this. She had been healed after nearly dying from cancer. So she said, “Pastor, once you stand before death, nothing else matters.” I said, “That is true.” “When death comes near, there is only the gospel.” We must start counting. We are standing before the Red Sea. We must cross the Red Sea. All the church members in Ulsan, Busan, and Changwon must pray, staking their entire lifetime. “Someday I will leave. When I am gone, what footprints will I have left here?” Without boasting, I must say: we must build the three courtyards, and I believe your history must be recorded. We must leave something so that our future generations can follow what kind of 237 missions we did. We must leave clearly what these three courtyards are. Then remnants from all over the world must come, see, and understand. “Ah, this is prayer. This is the gospel.” They must see that. That is the covenant He is telling us to hold. “The LORD will fight for you. Stand still and wait.” So this tremendous event occurred. Burying Egypt was natural, but more important was that the news went out to the whole world, and even more important was the faith there. To help you pray more, I will conclude.

▣ Conclusion
[ 40 years – The tabernacle ] What was the message of the forty years in the wilderness? The tabernacle. Without question, the tabernacle. With the pillar of cloud and the pillar of fire at the center of the tabernacle. With the openings of the tents all facing the tabernacle.

[ The Early Church – 3 courtyards ] What was the message of the Early Church? It was the three courtyards of the temple that Jesus spoke of. That is the message.

[ 237–5000 closed churches ] Then what is our message today? Why did they do everything centered on the tabernacle, and why did the Early Church have the three courtyards? We must save the 237 nations. The 5,000 tribes must come to our church, learn evangelism, and go out. And even more, we must save the closed churches. So throughout the country and world, as I plan to speak with our church leaders and our young adults at the retreat, if you just open your eyes a little, there are many. In Germany, the elders said, “Look for an RUTC,” and when they looked—without really expecting it—there truly was one. Since it was a cultural center used by children, the rent was cheap and no one could touch it. It was all prepared. If our church leaders open their eyes just a bit, opportunities are everywhere. We must revive the churches that have closed. So our mission is not just any mission. Because we have no place now, multiethnic people come and go like this. We must have resources prepared so that they can rest and pray, and truly have healing. And we must have rooms ready where the sick can go in, pray comfortably, and listen to the message. We cannot make the entire church like that, but we must make it possible for those who desire it. Right now the church lacks nothing at all. What we must have is what God truly wants. This week you must experience the tremendous work of God that allows you to cross the Red Sea. Did the miracle of crossing the Red Sea take place? Check. It has taken place for me. The fact that a powerless sinner like me can be in a place to do world evangelization together with you—that, for me, is a miracle greater than the Red Sea. Some people say that they realized God’s grace after they fell into great illness, but for me it was not even that. By grace, God made me understand through the Word, and I am doing world evangelization. What is the conclusion? The Red Sea incident happened because of people who had no faith. That is the precise way to see it. If we had faith, He would have taken us directly, but now He had to do some work on them. He had to give some training. That is the Red Sea. If it were you, would you send your child out into the world when they do not even know how to write? You must educate them. If your child is weak and cannot even walk properly, would you send them outside? Of course not. God caused this tremendous incident called the Red Sea and overturned the world. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that this grace will begin in you today and this week. Let us pray.

Prayer. Let this covenant be imprinted in us today. Let us see the work of God who parts the Red Sea. Let the work of the Red Sea parting arise in our work, in our studies, and in our fields. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

Scripture Reading: Exodus 12:43-51

▣ Introduction: On that day 

When you face pitch-dark difficulty, hold on to the three things God first gave Moses. In verse 51 it says, “On that day.” Today I set the title as “On that kind of day,” because we must receive the same answers. Knowing a lot about the Bible is important, but you must receive answers. You have done nothing wrong, but a problem came to your family. It is not even your fault. Your parents were shamans. But your family continues to suffer. That is one thing, but when you have children, your future generation also comes under spiritual problems. What should you do? When a pitch-dark and difficult situation stands before you, what should you do? You must pray that prayer today. Even if it is just today, pray. What should you do when it is impossible? It is not your fault. A spiritual problem came into the family, and no one can help with that. In some families, one person has mental illness, and another has developmental disability. That is not something parents can handle. What should they do? First of all, it is something very old. Not their own sin—something long-standing. Now Israel has reached a hopeless situation. Joseph is gone, and after 400 long years the Israelites have become complete slaves. The future generation was about to die. There is no situation harder than this. Egypt made a law: kill every Hebrew male child that is born. What kind of law is that? This situation actually came. At that time, God called Moses. How did He solve this problem? He first gave Moses three things. Today you must hold on to those. Of course they had to be set free from Egypt, but even more important was something else. They had to come out of the darkness. So God first gave Moses three things. You must absolutely remember these.

1. The sure covenant – The blood sacrifice What did He first give? He gave a sure covenant. “Lead My people out and give the blood sacrifice.” “Tell Pharaoh. I will be with you with a mighty hand. That will be the sign.” God said this. Moses held onto this covenant. Before that, he had never held it this strongly. When they were about to die, he held this covenant firmly.

2. The ten miracles – Completely breaking all the dark cultures Then he went before Pharaoh. That is the second thing. How can you defeat this darkness and come out? An amazing mystery appears here. What appears? We did not read it all; we only read the last part. God gave Moses power and performed ten miracles. If you look closely at the ten miracles, they are not something else. They completely broke all the dark culture. Today, may this be the Sunday when through prayer you break all dark culture. That alone is enough. You know the ten plagues. Ten miracles. The Nile River flows down from above, through Egypt, down to Sudan. It is enormous. It was Egypt’s god. God completely turned this into blood. When it became a sea of blood, what happened? God completely shattered the dark authority of the Nile. Frogs, gnats, flies—appear, right? All of these were Egyptian gods. Frogs were gods of fertility. In their own way, they called them gods. How can that be a god? In this way, the whole world fell into darkness. Israel was now trapped inside this. In some sense, this was a tremendous timetable. So the ten miracles completely broke all Egyptian culture. ※ Through prayer, break unbelief and all dark culture. You must break all unbelief and all dark culture in you.

3. The blood of the lamb, the authority to overcome darkness in the name of Jesus Christ – The secret to defeating the pitch-darkness of Egypt Third. But still it did not work. Even after the ten miracles, Pharaoh would not surrender. When did he surrender? When the firstborn children died—though that alone was not the true reason. Here an important answer appears. On the day the blood of the lamb was applied, the Israelites came out. This is the secret for you to overcome the pitch-darkness of Egypt before you. Believe and pray. Even just today—our nation and the entire church world are full of dark forces. It must become the time when with the blood of the Lamb, with the name of Jesus, this darkness is broken. So coming out of Egypt was not the real issue. It was that they had not come out of darkness. They needed to come out. After the ten miracles, Pharaoh said, “Go.” And in Biblical history the great Exodus took place. After the Exodus, God gave His Word. What is more important? They must now continue. To continue in this grace, keep the memorial day. Keep the Passover as a memorial. That is the text we read today. It is extremely important. ※ We have the authority to overcome darkness in the name of Christ. Break it. What sets us free is the blood covenant. When the firstborn were killed, the homes with the blood were passed over, and that is why it is called Passover. It means that darkness, death, and destruction could not come upon you but passed over. Because of that, when Egypt’s firstborn all died, Pharaoh finally surrendered. God said to commemorate this. It is important. ※ Hold the covenant first. Begin the prayer with authority. Do not forget this memorial. Solving the problems you have is important, but restoring what God has given is more important. So those who have such things in their family should not be discouraged, but first hold the covenant like Crosby did. Crosby held the covenant and gave thanks. “Thank You for giving me the blessing of being a child of God. Thank You for allowing me to pray the prayer that overcomes darkness.” She could not go anywhere, but the prayer like the ten miracles—prayer with authority—began in Crosby. One day, works began to arise. Crosby changed her prayer. Before she said, “Seeing is my prayer topic.” But later she said, “Not seeing is my prayer topic, because God leads me perfectly.” This appears in Crosby’s praise. God said to commemorate this. This is more important. Do not forget. What does it mean to commemorate? Why do we hold memorial ceremonies? “Do not forget.” Why do we commemorate 6.25? “Do not forget 6.25.” Why do we commemorate August 15 Liberation Day? “Do not forget.” So after Israel came out of Egypt, they carried out the ceremony to commemorate the Passover.

▣ Main: Keep the Passover – Continue it

What must be continued?

1. The Passover covenant that changes all destiny (verse 51) First. Commemorate the Passover covenant that changes—must change—all destiny. In verse 51, “On that day, the LORD brought the Israelites out of Egypt.” Commemorate this. “I rescued you from Egypt. You know people’s strength could not do it. I brought you out. Do not forget. Now go on the wilderness road.” That is all. God clearly gave proof. You cannot deny the historical work. 1) The offspring of the woman will crush the serpent’s head. This was spoken from the very beginning. From the beginning to the ancestors: “The offspring of the woman will crush the serpent’s head.” 2) Build the ark. “Make the ark so that you and your descendants will not die in the disaster.” 3) The fulfillment of the message the mother gave when she sent him to the Egyptian palace – The word given at Horeb (blood sacrifice). It was the message his mother gave when she sent him to Pharaoh’s palace, right? God spoke this again at Mount Horeb. Think about it. From within the fire, “Moses, Moses.” He said, “The place where you are standing is holy ground. Remove your sandals.” It was a declaration of great decision. “Go now and tell the elders and tell Pharaoh: ‘Let My people go so they may give the blood sacrifice.’” That was fulfilled. Do not forget. If you do not forget, works will arise. But you keep forgetting. When you do not forget, works arise.

2. Imprint the power of God that no one can block Second. Why commemorate the Passover? Because no one can block the power of God. Commemorate the Passover that imprints that power. Do not forget.

1. A week of concentration on the Passover They concentrated for one entire week on the Passover. (1) Concentrate on worship on Sunday and on prayer – The works of the Word will be seen. Try just one thing properly on Sunday. Remnants must concentrate on worship and prayer on Sunday. That alone is enough. Then you will see the works of the Word of God. If you lose this, you lose everything. So for one entire week, they concentrated on commemorating the Passover. There are many churches where the pastor is not present that are joining this message with us. Even churches with pastors are joining this message. Overseas, around one hundred sites listen by broadcast. After the sermon ends, this message goes out to thousands online today. And just as our elder prayed, many remnants are alone in remote places because their churches are struggling. So they worship alone. (2) Succeed in worship You must succeed in worship. Even those watching by video—the Word does not change. You must succeed in worship. Sunday is that important. I rarely speak about other matters on Sundays. Even if my secretaries ask, I do not answer. Why? Because Sunday is important. I must serve the Word of God. It would be easier if I had some qualification to teach you, but that is not the case. This is extremely important. (3) When you fall into deep, long-standing darkness – only that covenant, only that authority. Continue this. We can fall into such darkness on our path. Into long-standing darkness. What should we do? Only that covenant. Like the ten miracles—only that authority. Continue this. For one week they intensely focused on the Passover. That is why. (2) Unleavened bread – Eat the bread of affliction. Do not fear suffering. They ate unleavened bread. Unleavened means there is no leaven that makes bread rise. Just eat it. Simply put, it has no taste. In a way, it is the bread of affliction. Eat this. It has deep meaning. We do not fear suffering. They ate it for one week. (3) Meat – It must be those who are saved. Sacrifice of the covenant And what else? Meat. Today. Absolutely no foreigners. It must be those who are saved. God emphasized that. They ate it, but it was also the sacrifice of the covenant. Do not forget. Do not forget the power that brought you out of Egypt when it was absolutely impossible. Do not forget the covenant. It is the same meaning. Do not forget.

3. Deliver this to the future generation and to the entire world Lastly, why commemorate? Third: Deliver. Deliver this to the future generation and to the world. It tells us even how to deliver. How do we deliver?

1. Passover – We escaped from darkness by the blood of Christ We escaped from darkness through the blood of Christ. Commemorate that. But it did not end there. 2) Pentecost – The power to save the world that comes only upon those with the Passover covenant The blessing of Pentecost came. Upon those who have the Passover covenant comes the blessing of Pentecost. This is the power to save the world. Because you are people of the Holy Spirit, the works of Pentecost. Why do people go to shamans? They have no choice. They are children of the devil. They have no choice. So you cannot just say they are wrong. That is their path. They serve demons—so they serve demons and get deceived and die. Satan is the deceiver. He pretends to know all your things but deceives you so you never know the truth. That is why disasters come on all Egypt and world wars break out and chaos happens now. Pentecost. The day when the Holy Spirit came. The simple word Pentecost came from gathering harvest in fifty days, but in Acts 2: “When the day of Pentecost came…” 3) Feast of Ingathering – Background of the throne It did not end there. The background of the throne. What is it? The Feast of Ingathering. That is why these three feasts are important. They go together. Commemorate them and do not forget. Deliver them to the future generation. Make the future generation go with this and conquer the world. ※ You cannot defeat Pharaoh by anything else. The darkness was simply broken. This authority is given to you (Luke 10:19, Mark 3:15, Mark 16:17–18). You cannot defeat Pharaoh with anything else. That Pharaoh who caused world wars, sold people as slaves, and killed—you cannot defeat him with anything else. The darkness was simply broken. You have this authority. Pray today. “I give you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy.” “He gave them authority to drive out demons.” “In My name lay hands on the sick and they will recover.” “In My name drive out demons.” Jesus said this. He gave us tremendous authority. ※ With authoritative prayer, just as breaking the ten plagues, break the darkness. Today your field and our nation and the church are important. Today you must break darkness with authoritative prayer just as the ten plagues were broken. Do not forget this. Do not forget. Take this with you. Today is that kind of day. Yesterday while returning from the Gwangju gathering with the secretaries by car, as I mentioned to the elders today—the churches that closed have filled the listings. We cannot even take them because we have too many people. The sanctuary that seats 100 or 200 people—completely full on the listings. It is a serious problem. In each region. They cannot pay, so they put them up for sale. And they are not even expensive. “Just pay one million won a month and use it.” America? Filled. They are collapsing everywhere. What greater disaster is there than this? ※ Keep the Passover – Do not forget the covenant, the power, and delivering to the future generation to save the world. Today, you must pray this prayer. Keep the Passover. Commemorate the Passover. Do not forget the covenant. Do not forget the power. Do not forget saving the world by delivering to the future generation. Believe this. Only what is real must be believed. We cannot make it ourselves. It is by faith. Christ is not something we make and bring. God gave Him, so we receive by grace.

▣ Conclusion

I will conclude.

1. Five people finished this Five people finished this. Right? 1) The minister – One from the tribe of Levi, Moses Especially ministers—Moses alone, one from the tribe of Levi, finished all of this. 2) The church leader – Jethro who supported Moses Church leaders must realize this. Jethro alone supported Moses, and this world-changing work took place. 3) The remnants – Joshua and Caleb Two remnants followed. Who? Joshua and Caleb. “As I was with Moses, so I will be with you.” Caleb was his friend, but as soon as Joshua became leader, he said, “As I served Moses, I will serve you.” 4) The newcomer – Rahab the prostitute who held the covenant and received the greatest blessing Especially newcomers must remember. Rahab. She held the covenant. She changed into the one who received the greatest blessing. After entering Canaan, she became David’s grandmother. And following her descendants, Jesus Christ came.

2. We must be set free from darkness. Prayer holding the covenant with assurance will surely be answered. Lastly remember this. They came out of Egypt? That is not freedom. Not yet. Satan still exists. Came out of the wilderness? Not freedom. Philistines still remain. Beat them? Not freedom. They were taken captive to Babylon. Came out of Babylon? Not freedom. They became a colony of Rome again. It continues. We must be set free from darkness. Correct? In you, in our nation, and in your families, the work of liberation from darkness must arise. One of you is enough. Have assurance. “But I prayed and the answer did not come.” Of course. True answers do not come instantly in something visible. That is fake. The authority you used connects exactly to breaking darkness. Prayer with the covenant and assurance will surely be answered.

3. Commemorate – Do not forget the covenant that defeated darkness; deliver God’s power to the world through the future generation. Now you understand why He said to commemorate, right? What must we commemorate? The covenant that defeated darkness. With authority, the ten darknesses were completely broken. On the day the blood was applied, they came out. You must remember. Do not forget. Do not forget the covenant. Do not miss God’s power. This must be delivered to the whole world through the future generation. Our multiethnic people must go with this. Pray all day today. Let us pray.

Prayer. We thank God. Let today be the day we see the history of the Exodus and restore the secret of the Passover. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

Lecture 1 「God’s Bartizan and Concentration」 (Ac 2:17-18)
Lecture 2 「God’s Journey and Our Life」 (Ac 2:1-47)
Lecture 3 「God’s Journey and Springboard」 (1Co 3:16)

Lecture 5 「God’s Bartizan and Assurance」 (Jn 1:12)

Here in Gwangju I am seeing so many new things. So I thought, “Ah, this is not the countryside.” Since you are already putting in so much effort, even if it is something our broadcasting team already knows, whenever a praise song comes out, you must put in the lyricist and composer. And if there is someone singing a solo, you must put that person’s name as well. Since you are putting in the effort anyway, it would be good if you could do it that way.

▣ Introduction

There are a few things that not only our remnants but also many church members must always remember.

Now At any time, you must always think, “What kind of answer is God giving now?” Today is Remnant Day. God gathered the remnants in the wilderness and gave them a message for all Israel. He told them to let the future generations know all the things that had happened up to that point. But if you look at the content, He did not just say “let them know,” He said to imprint it. That is the end of it. What kind of time is now? It is the time when Samuel became an adult and began the Mizpah movement for the future generations. It is precisely that time. And to save the future generations, Elisha began the Dothan movement. So it is that time. And to save the future generations, in Isaiah chapter 62 God said to set watchmen. It is the time of blessing when God answers day and night. And whenever Paul met an important person, there is something he certainly did: he took them into the synagogue. That work is taking place now. At any time, you must confirm how God is working now.

Prayer (brain) + soul + eternal background And what actually happens when you pray? When you pray, your brain completely comes alive. And why do I keep telling you to breathe comfortably? Why do I tell you to do breathing prayer? In the past I did not talk about this, but now it has been completely proven scientifically. Now, if you go on YouTube, you see a huge amount of content about breathing. Why? Because if you do not do that, you cannot save your body. The place that is especially affected first is here (the brain). So when you combine breathing with prayer, you completely come alive. So remnants must always remember: “Ah, this is why we pray!” You must always remember this. Then it is not just something ordinary. It connects like this (to the soul). It connects into your soul. This is prayer. So it does not just end there. This connects to the eternal background. That is why it is important. All the spells and prayers of people who are not saved connect with eternity, but that place is hell. How miserable is that? That is their background. The reason the topic of the throne keeps coming out for you is because it is our background. So in the remnant time you must remember this prayer.

▣ Main point So there are a few things you absolutely must keep in your heart as you begin.

1. Bartizan (concentration) – [ 7〮7〮7 ] First, the reason for doing this prayer is to build the bartizan of the LORD. Prayer is concentrating on that. So to what extent should you set a standard and do this? We came to the conclusion of what Jesus taught. You must set a standard. Jesus explained the forty days. So it is bartizan, journey, and guidepost.

1)Three courtyards When remnants pray holding onto this, three courtyards are made and can be revived. Because you will become the main figures in this, you must enjoy this blessing.

2) The three-day weekend age And the answers all came from here, right? You are becoming the main figures of the three-day weekend age. In this way, when you have a bartizan for other remnants, things become easy. If there is no bartizan, it becomes difficult. If you have a bartizan, a watchman can guard from there. It is hard to stand outside without a bartizan and act as a watchman. It is hard in winter and hard in summer. If you have this bartizan, you can enjoy blessings like this. So from today, remnants must absolutely start praying, even briefly. This (brain + soul) completely comes alive. What you do from now connects to the eternal background. If you could even do 24, you would overturn the world. Even if you do not go that far, for remnants—in fact, for remnants, if they just worship properly on Sunday, that is enough. But if you start this kind of prayer even once a day, it is tremendous. This (brain + soul) changes. That is why when we ask, “Why do we do this?” it is because nothing else must enter here (brain + soul). So for people who became great figures, almost everything was imprinted during their remnant time. And if you look at people who commit big incidents, kill people, and do such things, in almost every case something evil was imprinted during their remnant time. So it goes on for eternity.

3)Age of holy meditation So why do we talk about concentration, setting, and answers? It is to open the age of holy meditation. With these three, remnants can save the world. From now on, keep praying.

2. Journey As you continue doing this (number 1), you go on a journey with it. Because you go on the journey with this, there are a few things you must absolutely remember before you go on the journey.

1. Christ — what He gave, 1.3.8 What in the world did Christ give us? You must go with this. What Christ gave us came out earlier while we were singing praise, right? He gave this (1.3.8). Christ completely gave the answer, and He gave the mystery of the kingdom of God, the filling of the Holy Spirit, and world evangelization.
2. Start Then how did this begin? That was Mark’s upper room.

(1) The three feasts The most important part there is the phrase, “When the day of Pentecost came.” When it says, “When the day of Pentecost came,” it means it comes upon those who are saved. It is unnecessary for those who are not saved; it comes upon those who are saved. And “Pentecost came” has another background. We call that the three feasts. This is the start.

(2) Acts 2:9–11 So you often ask, “What should we do?” If you continue this (7〮7〮7) prayer, you will see it. You will see two things. You will see people. You will see the prepared disciples. So success does not come from meeting a lot of people. There are people whom God has prepared. So for our pastors and remnants, when you evangelize you must always keep in mind that within that field there can definitely be someone whom God has prepared. When you pray, the Holy Spirit leads in a marvelous way. If you do not know that prayer, even if you are being led, you do not recognize it. So you cling to the wrong person and work hard. As you keep doing it, just as a doctor can see a patient and know, as you keep doing it you can confirm, “Ah, this person is a prepared disciple right now; this person is not.” Then you dig into that person. People keep making evangelism difficult. For me, how did I start? When I looked at a newcomer, there were people who just came, and there were people who were prepared. For people who just came, you can just be a bit good to them. Just treat them so they will not get offended. But there are prepared people. If you grab hold of that and dig in, the doors keep opening. So if you go to a random person and evangelize, it is difficult. Around newcomers there are many unbelievers. Around pastors there are almost no unbelievers. That is why the ones who are worst at evangelism are pastors. That is normal. There are no targets around them. If one unbeliever comes, then 99–100% of the people around that person are targets. You must not lose hold of that. But instead of meeting those people, you keep meeting other people. Meeting these people is the first part of the camp.

(3) Acts 2:17–18 Then the future is simply seen—with what? It is seen as answers. Then you can just go. If you do not see it, you can wait. Jesus told us to wait. If you stand in some other path and keep saying, “It is not coming,” then of course it will not come. So this is very important. Remnants must not forget this. You do not need to worry, “What will I do in the future?” It is the same as thinking, “Which road should I take to go home?” You should just go. Only people coming home for the first time worry like that. These days you do not even need that worry. There is navigation for everything.

3. Platform — 10 things Third, for you to go on the journey there must absolutely be a platform. What is the platform? It is the 10 things. I believe in God’s absolute sovereignty. You must truly believe in God. God has a plan. But even more important, God’s plan is to save. Even if it looks like you are going through great hardship, it is to save. He makes you suffer to save, but Satan makes you suffer to kill you. That is where it is different. “For God so loved the world.” In contrast, Satan “so hated the world.” His goal is for you to be ruined. God’s goal is for you to live. He even wants unbelievers to be blessed. So you must believe in God’s absolute sovereignty. Then what is the second? God’s absolute method. What is that? It is Christ. God’s absolute power is that He said He would send the Counselor, the Holy Spirit. God’s absolute guarantee is the Word. The most important temple is me. The Holy Spirit of God is in you. Where is the most important mission field? The place where I am. God knows my entire life. That is why we are thankful. He watches over our sitting down and rising up. But it does not end with that. It comes to everyone once. After being born on this earth, everyone comes to face death. To everyone. And there is surely the afterlife. It is promised in the Bible. Only the part of “going there and actually seeing it” remains, but the Bible promises it that way. Seven thousand promises have been fulfilled, and within those words God says that there is hell and heaven. And what is the final platform? If this evangelism movement you are doing is real, He said, “Even a cup of cold water will not lose its reward.” I have spoken of the 10 platforms. You must remember them. Right now I just recited them all from memory. Because they are always inside my prayer. And it does not end with that.

4. Secret — 10 things God has given you as many as 10 secrets. What is the very first? You survive wherever you are. Alone. You survive even if there is no one to help you. In some sense, you go with No-time, No-way, and Nobody. God’s entire way is there. And you must always not be deceived by what you see in reality, but open your eyes to the spiritual facts. Answers are almost always on the other side. People fight complicated fights, but the answer is not there; it is somewhere else. So fools grab hold of that and fight every day. The answer is not there. And if you grab hold of God’s covenant, you save everyone. So we choose the side of crisis. Problem came? We go there. That is a remnant. And what do we not have? We have no competitors. If you truly receive answers, you have no competitors. Who can compete with Joseph? They cannot. Who can compete with Elisha? As God blessed and fulfilled the remnant’s will, who can compete with Daniel? They just became jealous and died; it was not competition. And what is your real answer? Do not worry about studies. It is re-creation. It is re-creation that prepares 300%. Then everything unconditionally ends. And what is it? We choose the desert and wilderness. What is the last secret? Seeing God’s absolute plan. You see the absolute. It is not something you may or may not do. Absolute. “It would be good if I did it”? Why would you stake your life on that? It is absolute. I have just spoken of the 10 secrets. Remnants must absolutely remember them.

5. Assurance — 5 things Finally, what is it? Many different things arise. Everything now is just the beginning and the process. It is the 5 assurances. What are they? “No one can say, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ except by the Holy Spirit.” If the word “Christ” is believed—then you have been saved. Praying hard? That is what comes after. If Christ is not believed but you pray fervently, then problems come. If you have not even received salvation but you pray hard, problems come. That is the same as doing a shamanistic ritual. Because there is no Christ. So if there is no Christ but you work diligently, problems come. What is the first thing you must have? The assurance of salvation. And He said this: “Ask in My name.” What does that mean? It means you do not need to catch lambs, cows, or anything like that anymore. Everything ends with this one name. He gave you the key. So “Ask in My name”—that is the assurance of prayer answers. Many problems come to us. Remnants must be calm. Why? Because He only gives trials you can bear and surely makes you overcome. First Corinthians 10:13. What is it? The assurance of victory. He makes you win. And what is it? Why did He send Christ? You cannot overcome disaster, the background of hell, and Satan. He completely finished all of that. Mark 10:45—the assurance of forgiveness. And what was the last thing He said? The first thing He said and the last thing He said were the same: “I will be with you always.” The assurance of guidance. I have said everything now. I have just spoken it. So you take this with you. Whenever problems come, you must know, “Ah, this is the process.” When He says He only gives trials you can bear, it means that for a great person He can give great trials. If you are a person who looks like you will do great works, God trains you greatly. For a small vessel, He gives small trials. Who tells a first-grader in elementary school, “Solve integrals and calculus”? No one does that. To an elementary school student, you say, “What is 1 plus 1?” If I, a full-grown adult, call Pastor Jo Sangryong and ask, “What is 1 plus 1?” who is the fool? I am the fool. God is not that kind of fool. If He gives a big trial, it means you can become a great worker. Remnants must always remember this. “Ah, the environment of our home was not good.” That means you are a great person. Why? Because that is how you are trained. A tree that grows in a greenhouse is not really a tree. If it is not cared for and goes outside, it dies. That is why you must be hit by rain and wind; that is how you become a proper tree. You must firmly hold onto these 5 assurances.

22. Feb. 2025 Remnant & TCK Study of Evangelism

RT Remnants must understand this word well. The word “Remnant” in the Bible means “those who remain,” and it is the most important word. Then you must understand three words as well.

TCK If you do not know TCK, you cannot do world evangelization. That is why even people in international marriages are important for this reason. In some ways, they look like people who have been abandoned, do they not? That is important. (T) The third culture.

CCK There are Remnants who are completely in an opposite culture, such as Muslims or Chinese people. C means “culture,” and Kids means “children.” So what are you going to do about these people who are completely in a cross, in the opposite side of the cultural sphere?

NCK There are Remnants in places where there is no culture at all. You must understand these three words (TCK, CCK, NCK) in order to pray correctly.

237 – 5000, healing, summit When this comes out, that is what we call 237, healing, and summit.

– Three courtyards – This is what we call the three courtyards. It was that very field where Jesus became angry. Because there was no place for the multiethnic people to come, no place to pray, and no courtyard for the children, Jesus became angry. You must understand this. If you do not understand this, there are people who say they have read the Bible 100 times. So what will you do after reading it a lot like that? Some say 200 times. I do not mean that reading the Bible a lot is a bad thing. But it is like holding a map without knowing the way.

「What we must absolutely do」 Therefore, within this, there is something that Remnants must absolutely do. Right?

1. What to change (John 8:44) First, what to change. You must change this during the Remnant time. And when you meet these people, you must change them as well. What must be changed? I told you earlier. They belonged here (John 8:44), and I said that their lives had entered into this. They are running errands for the devil. This must be changed. If this is not changed, nothing will work in any case.

1. 12 strategies Satan has used 12 strategies. You must completely overturn these.
2. Scars And scars must be changed. Scars may look like nothing, but they must be changed.
3. Platform You must not just change these scars lightly. You must turn them into a platform. Because you cannot forget them, you must make them into a platform. All Remnants must absolutely do this (the opening part). And we adults must open up the three-day weekend age so that this (what to change) can be done. If you try to take out what is inside of you, you will not easily bring it out. Right? Do you grab some passerby on the street and tell them your story? You do not, do you? But when you meet a friend, you tell it to your close friend, do you not? You must be able to come to church and take out your things and change them.

2. What to find (Romans 1:16–17) What to find. What Paul found (Romans 1:16–17). What Luther found. You must find it. Although we know that this is the gospel, what we have not found is this.

1. The value of the gospel You must discover the value of the gospel. This is everything, but it is not becoming everything, is it? Then you have not found it. Christ is the One who has finished every problem, but you have not found that. You must find it.
2. The happiness of the gospel And how good this gospel is. This gospel is my greatest happiness. You must find this.
3. The power of the gospel And you must absolutely find the power of the gospel. There must be power. Because they criticized Paul so much, Paul said, “I am not ashamed of the gospel. It is the power of God that brings salvation.” That is what he said. He found this. You must find this during the Remnant time. And at times, you must find it in a factual way. Remnants must find it scientifically. Can the background of hell, the background of Satan, disasters, and spiritual problems that we have be solved? They cannot. Because they cannot be solved, God gave this to us. That is why we call it grace. The term “Christ” is the scientifically possible way to solve them. That is why the Old Testament is the promise that Christ will be sent. Right? The New Testament is that Christ has come. Paul said, “The righteous will live by this faith.” That is what it means. Jesus said, “I am the way and the truth and the life.” In the English Bible, there is an article. It says, “The way.” There are many ways. But He is “the way.” There are many truths. He is “the truth.” Is not everything that is alive a life? He is “the life.” You must know this together.

3. What to establish (300%) Therefore our Remnants, with this strength, are to establish things.

1. My bartizan It is to establish my bartizan 100%.
2. Field bartizan And before we go to the field, it is the field bartizan 100%.
3. Future bartizan And it is the future bartizan 100%. This is what we call 300%. So in our General Assembly we are saying, “Let us do camp like this.”

Now, if we have not properly held to the golden fields, the blind spots, and the disaster fields, they will not accept it. When is graduation? When clear fruits appear, that is graduation. If that does not happen, some of you may not be able to graduate for twenty years. We will not let you graduate. You must receive the true blessing. So now the General Assembly president has had all his answers come out: “Ah, I must do this.” If we are not going to do this, why have a General Assembly? Only to always meet and fight? There was a pastor like this; I was truly surprised. He could not preach well, and the church was not going well, but when he spoke to you—I used to go to the General Assembly and Presbytery meetings, and when they came out and spoke at the General Assembly, their eyes changed completely. They were so smart. I was so surprised. Their eyes were blazing, and although they usually stuttered a little, at that time they did not stutter at all. “Ah, there is such a nature,” I thought. But when they go back to the church, it is just a mess. They were wrongly imprinted. You must imprint Remnants firmly. Then it will last a lifetime. As you go, once in a while you must check, “Ah, do I have this blessing?” Because if you drive a car without ever having it inspected even once, one day you will die. Right? If possible, even with a car, every day you should check whether the tires or anything else are strange before you go; you must not just run. Almost all airplane accidents happen because they did not inspect. Hundreds of people died. They should inspect something, but they do not. That is the biggest reason. For that reason, this time too, what if the plane had taken off when it caught fire underneath? It is fortunate that it could not take off. If it had, everyone sitting there would have died, being roasted by the fire. That is how important it is to inspect and check. Especially for Remnants, when you go to worship on Sunday, check this: “Ah, do I have this blessing or not?” Then everything will naturally be fulfilled when you become an adult. Let us pray.

Prayer We give glory and praise to God. We also give thanks. Let this blessing absolutely come upon the Remnants, and we thank You for what You have already given. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
