Believers Who Save the Servants of the Lord

Prayer Journal: June 6, 2026
2025.09.07 Sunday 1st Service
RTS Sunday
Scripture Reading: 1 Kings 18:1-15


▣ Introduction: First Receive Strength and Answers
Today is the day when we keep RTS Sunday across our nation and the world. As I prepared the message, I especially thought, “Today is the day to receive double economic blessing.” I always prepare my offering in advance, so since we need to give to our church and also to RTS, we receive double blessing. Now, we should of course pray for RTS today, but first you must obtain that strength. While we live, there are times when we face very great difficulties.

In today’s text, such a thing had never happened in history. King Ahab kept 850 false prophets of Baal and Asherah right in the royal palace. That alone would have been bad enough, but he actually killed the true prophets with the sword. What should we do at such a time? No one could defeat the king or resolve this difficult problem.
The figures who appear then are Elijah and Elisha, but the even more important figure is the church leader Obadiah. Obadiah made a critical decision. But how could he do this? What is the answer you must firmly hold today? It is not most important to ask what the crisis is and what we should do.

1. Obadiah, who possessed the secret of prayer called 24, 25, and eternity
Obadiah possessed the secret of prayer called 24, 25, and eternity. Today you must surely hold to this. Those who have received the answer of God’s power need nothing else. Problems, conflicts, crises—they are not fearful.

1) David
Let me mention just one remnant as an example. David, from his youth, already had the ability to enjoy God’s answers. You must pray for this today. Because he had this power, nothing became a problem.

2) Hebrews chapter 11
Hebrews chapter 11 gathers only people of faith. Verse 38 records this: “People of whom the world was not worthy.” They are not afraid.

3) Paul
Especially someone like Paul—what came before evangelism? “Pray in the Spirit on all occasions.” In 2 Corinthians chapter 12 he says, “Whether I was in the body or out of the body I do not know,” indicating how deeply he entered into the power of prayer. You must surely discover this.

2. The answer Obadiah received – 300%
To put it simply, Obadiah, a church leader, first received two kinds of answers to save the ministers.

1) A person prepared 300% as a disciple of evangelism
He was Elijah’s disciple of evangelism who served God. As I put it, he was prepared 300% as a disciple of evangelism.

2) A person prepared 300% as a servant to the king
Another thing: he was a servant of Ahab. Remarkable, isn’t it? Elijah and Ahab were enemies—sworn enemies. Obadiah was a person who received 300% of the answer as a court servant. This is the key. This is the key you and the remnants must hold today. He was Elijah’s disciple—and at the same time a servant trusted by the king. Does nothing come to mind? Elijah and Ahab were enemies. Here an important matter arises with Obadiah. Today you must pray, “Grant me the power and answer to accomplish world evangelization and to save the world.” Nothing else will do.
When David received answers, no problem troubled him. In Israel’s history the greatest problem came, and Obadiah stepped forward to resolve it. He risked his life to save the ministers. He was a person prepared 300% as a disciple of evangelism, and 300% as a servant.

3) 300% – Filled with the Holy Spirit
I always emphasize this: What is 300%?

(1) Me 100% prepared
It means that what God has given concerning me is prepared 100%.

(2) The field 100% prepared
The field is prepared 100%. Isn’t that right?

(3) The future 100% prepared
The future is prepared 100%. If you cannot find this, it is a serious matter. You will not accomplish world evangelization. You might barely manage to get by, but is that God’s will? No. All remnants and church leaders must firmly hold the covenant. Seeing that 300% power, I am convinced this is being filled with the Holy Spirit. That is the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Therefore Obadiah held this covenant exactly.

▣ Main Message: Obadiah Who Enjoyed Three Things in the Age of Crisis
1. The hidden provider for 100 disciples
In this age of crisis he enjoyed something important—first, he was the hidden provider who concealed and raised 100 disciples. Isn’t that amazing? He hid 100 prophets whom the king had ordered to be killed.

1) The servant most trusted by Elijah and most needed by the king
How is this possible? He was the most faithful disciple to Elijah and the most needed servant to the king. This is the answer. To our young adults and remnants: when you go out, don’t say, “People ignore me; at the company they…” Don’t say you’re upset. It means I am not necessary. Isn’t that so? Get a grip. If people say I am not needed, who is wrong? Not those people—I am. The more wicked people are, the more they like those who are necessary. You must hold this firmly. In Ahab’s eyes, Obadiah was an extremely necessary servant. Do you think Ahab truly didn’t know that Obadiah had hidden 100 prophets? I think he knew. How could he not? Yet Ahab did not kill Obadiah. And Obadiah was Elijah’s most trusted disciple. This is the one who hid the 100. What happened then?

2) The intermediary role in the Mount Carmel incident
The Mount Carmel incident broke out. As the provider who hid the 100 disciples, he then played the intermediary role when the Carmel event erupted. What was it? Elijah asked Obadiah: “Tell King Ahab. Do all the go-between work.” Why? Because he was the one who could. “Tell him that we will hold a spiritual battle on Mount Carmel with the 850 false prophets to see who is true.” Then Obadiah said, “Are you trying to have me killed? If Ahab finds out I hid 100 prophets, I will die; and now you want me to say this too?” Elijah spoke with assurance: “The king will see me. Go and tell him.” Think about the situation.

Obadiah went and told him: “Let’s have a spiritual contest on Mount Carmel to determine whether the prophets of Baal and Asherah are true or the faith in the LORD is true.” Who told the king? Obadiah did. And King Ahab said, “Okay.”

3) Complete victory in spiritual warfare
Thus a tremendous spiritual battle took place on Mount Carmel. They won a complete victory. All the false prophets were executed. The forces of darkness were utterly broken. Because of one man, Obadiah, who knew what the ministers of the LORD must do, such things happened.

2. The hidden supporter of the 7,000 disciples
Second, Obadiah was the hidden backer of the 7,000 disciples. He had already served as the provider of the 100; now he stood behind and supported the far greater number—the 7,000. At this time the evidence of Mount Horeb arose.

1) When Elijah, who faced the crisis of death, collapsed under the broom tree
After defeating the false prophets, the palace should have surrendered—but Jezebel said, “Kill Elijah.” “Kill Elijah at once.” In his urgency Elijah fled. He fled without eating or sleeping. As you know, exhausted, he collapsed under a broom tree. Then he prayed honestly: “God, I can’t do this anymore. Everyone has forsaken You, and I alone am left. I am going to die. Just take me.” That was Elijah’s prayer. Then God sent His angel to touch Elijah, heal him, and give him food.

2) The Word given at Mount Horeb
Receiving that strength, Elijah traveled not just forty days but forty days and nights to Mount Horeb. There God spoke: “I have 7,000 disciples besides you. Raise up Elisha. Appoint him as your successor. Do not worry. I will replace King Ahab.” God said He would change him. Such an astounding work began again at Mount Horeb.

3) Obadiah, the hidden supporter
Who was the hidden backer and supporter in all this? It was Obadiah. This does not mean you must do many things. If you receive the strength God gives, you can do what is needed. You must hold that covenant.
The God who was with Obadiah is with you; hold that covenant now. However much other theories are attempted, they are wrong. You must hold the covenant accurately. If you receive the strength God gives, you can save the church. Only the strength God gives can save my family line. RU and RTS, and RTS throughout the world, can be raised. This is what is being made known now.
From this point, other works began to arise. To what extent did Obadiah receive answers? He was not merely the provider for 100; he was the backer of the 7,000. This is the answer you must surely hold.

3. The disciple who mobilized the heavenly army
Third, he was the disciple who mobilized the heavenly army. Where? In the city of Dothan. The connection extends even to this. This is now beyond the 7,000; countless disciples and the heavenly armies are mobilized.

1) Elisha, who from the beginning received this power of God as his heavenly mandate
Elisha from the beginning received this power of God as his calling and heavenly mandate.

(1) Setting out to follow Elijah, abandoning everything at the greatest crisis
At the greatest crisis, when Elijah called him, he abandoned everything without condition and followed. It was his heavenly mandate.

(2) Elisha, who without calculating followed to the end and sought a double portion of the spirit
Others calculated—how to eat, how to live—but not Elisha. He followed to the end, even to the Jordan. What did he say? “Grant me a double portion of your spirit.” That is what must be asked.

(3) Elisha, who initiated the Dothan movement
Such an Elisha finally initiated the Dothan movement.

2) The prayer power Elisha possessed
What happened? To what extent did Elisha have the power of prayer? He knew where the Aramean army was coming and going. In such matters there was a backer—Obadiah.
The king of Aram said, “It seems there is a spy among us. Wherever our army goes, the Israelite army lies in wait and strikes us. What is this?” Then one wise servant said, “No, it is because of the prophet named Elisha. He is a man of much prayer and knows all our movements. We must eliminate Elisha.” So the king of Aram ordered, not “Kill Elisha,” but “Capture Elisha alive and bring him.” Since the king commanded, and Aram was a great nation, armies came and surrounded the city to seize Elisha.
But in that city, a great number of disciples had gathered and were praying. Scripture records: “Those who were with us—the heavenly hosts—were far more than the Aramean army.” The servant whose eyes were darkened cried, “Master, we are in great trouble! The Aramean army has surrounded us.” Elisha said, “O LORD, open this servant’s eyes.” These are different eyes. When his spiritual eyes were opened, heavenly armies surrounded the Arameans on the outside. To the extent of Elisha’s power, he prayed, “Strike the Aramean army with blindness.” And they were all struck with blindness. Leading those blinded soldiers, they were brought along, thinking, “We are doomed.”
What happened? The king of Israel asked Elisha—note, in the past King Ahab killed prophets, but now this king called Elisha “My father.” He asked, “My father, what shall we do with these troops? Shall we strike off their heads and send them back?” Elisha said no. They set before them good food and held a feast. What do you think happened? “O LORD, open the eyes of the Aramean army.” Their eyes were opened—and a banquet had been prepared in abundance. Do you think they would attack again easily? Scripture records, “The Aramean raiders did not come into the land of Israel again.”

3) The devotion of one believer who knows God’s power completely saved the age.
The devotion of one believer who knows God’s power completely saved the age.
There is no time. You must make a decision today. Students, if you go out without this power, you will struggle all your life. Do not be deceived. Do not be deceived by people’s words. Hold to God’s Word. Truly. I have seen many: believers who are utterly pressed by poverty, people who cannot even maintain themselves. What is evangelism? There are so many who cannot even sustain themselves. This must change quickly. Young adults must make a decision now. If you do not decide now, you will cause your descendants to suffer even after you marry. Decide now. There is no excuse. Because Obadiah possessed this power, it was not only 100 or 7,000—there arose a work that saved the whole Aramean nation. You must make this decision. Therefore we must raise RTS throughout our nation and the world to produce such disciples and ministers who know God’s power.

▣ Conclusion: Resolution
1. Hold to the covenant
We have an RTS team meeting at 1:30 today; I plan to speak then. I have seen since I was young: it is not otherwise. We can save the world by God’s power. Hold this firmly as your covenant today.

2. Resolve.
So you must decide. What do I mean?

1) Grant us the strength to see God’s power within events.
“Grant us the strength to see God’s power within events.”
2) Let us not miss the age, like Obadiah.
“Let us not miss the age, like Obadiah.” We must pray this.
3) Grant us the strength to win without fighting.
To the point that Elisha knew even where the Aramean army was coming. Without fighting, they simply toyed with them. Win without fighting. “Grant us this strength.”

3. Be resolved and pray
I prayed with resolve. I had seen the adults. Having seen once is enough. I saw the adults and was convinced it could not be otherwise. I always say this: I passed through six places. It was not otherwise. The seventh church is our Immanuel Church—Busan and Seoul here. Without God’s true power, it cannot be done. World evangelization cannot be done. What is world evangelization? People say, “I can barely survive.” This must change quickly. You must pray this week: “God, grant me power sufficient to raise RTS disciples across the nation and the world.” That is God’s will.

1) The church leader who helped Martin Luther
Let me give just one example. One church leader staked his life to save the minister in this age of crisis. This changed the world. Who was it? The church leader who helped Martin Luther. It is tremendous. When I see that, I see that history was transformed.

2) The Australian believers who helped Missionary Mackenzie
Another miracle occurred. A man named Mackenzie first went to Vanuatu as a missionary. He became ill. Understandable. He fell ill in Vanuatu, but there were people who did not abandon him and helped Missionary Mackenzie. Where did he come? He came to Korea—to Busan, no less—and again became ill. Ordinary laypeople, church leaders, would have abandoned a person so ill. But they helped him again. Later, even when he could no longer work, they still helped him. Do you understand? Many of you would have recommended that he resign. His daughter came instead. Those daughters, seeing how poor Korea was—women dying in childbirth—first established a hospital to help them. At that time they had no means, so they went to the U.S. military base, obtained surplus beds, and outfitted the hospital. I began to attend church there, and now it is connected to Vanuatu. Do you know what that place is? It is a gate to the 5,000 tribes. Ah—how wondrously God works. Those Australian believers who helped a few ministers—these people turned the world upside down.

3) Our prayer
You must know that value. And without any other reason, you must hold the promise of the power God gives. “In the remaining years of my life, let me raise many seminary students among the many of the next generation who will correctly proclaim the gospel and send them into the world.” You must pray this. “Thus let us experience God’s power.” There is no other way. “Let us experience God’s invisible power. Now mobilize the heavenly army that You sent to Elisha.” This is our prayer. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that today will be a day of great answers.

Prayer. We thank You, God. Grant us the ability to raise seminary students; grant us the ability to revive RTS; grant us the ability to restore and raise the RTS movement throughout the world. Let today be the start. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

’Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus

’Tis So Sweet to Trust in Jesus
Louisa M. R. Stead

‘Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to take Him at His Word;
Just to rest upon His promise,
Just to know, “Thus says the Lord!”

Jesus, Jesus, how I trust Him!
How I’ve proved Him o’er and o’er
Jesus, Jesus, precious Jesus!
O for grace to trust Him more!

O how sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just to trust His cleansing blood;
Just in simple faith to plunge me
‘Neath the healing, cleansing flood!  Refrain

Yes, ’tis sweet to trust in Jesus,
Just from sin and self to cease;
Just from Jesus simply taking
Life and rest, and joy and peace.  Refrain

I’m so glad I learned to trust Thee,
Precious Jesus, Savior, Friend;
And I know that Thou art with me,
Wilt be with me to the end.  Refrain

Personal “Gospelization”

 

(Acts 1:8)

Remnants who fulfilled world evangelization held firmly to the covenant and saved their churches and fields. How was this possible? The mystery of 300% is contained within this. When an individual is completely “Gospelized”, the 100% works arise, and when the guidance of the Holy Spirit leads them, they will absolutely save the field.

Introduction – 3 Mysteries of 300%

1. 7 Bartizans
The 100% perfect power of the Gospel at work within you is your bartizan. From this, the platform, watchtower, and antenna are raised, and you will receive the answer of saving lives.

2. 7 Journeys
You will begin to realistically experience the 100% power of the throne—power that transcends time and space—and enjoy the unprecedented answers that save the field.

3. 7 Guideposts
This is the 100% system that raises the absolute bartizan. Through this bartizan, which allows us to see disaster zones and blind spots as golden fishing grounds, we can enjoy the answer of raising disciples.

Main – Witnesses of 300%

1. The 7 Remnants

1. Genesis 37:1–11 – Jacob kept Joseph’s words in his heart.
2. Exodus 4:24 – Moses moved forward, completely trusting God’s power.
3. 1 Samuel 3:19 – Not a single word of Samuel’s prayer fell to the ground.
4. 1 Samuel 16:13 – From the day David met Samuel, the Spirit of the Lord came upon David in power.
5. 2 Kings 2:9–11 – Elisha understood the state of his nation and sought a double portion of the Spirit.
6. Daniel 1:8–9 – Daniel resolved in his heart, knowing God’s plan for the past, present, and future.
7. Acts 9:15 – Paul was God’s chosen instrument.

2. The Filling of the Holy Spirit – 300% upon the Early Church

1. Acts 1:3 – For 40 days, they were imprinted with the bartizan of Christ.
2. Acts 1:14 – They were not afraid of their situation but constantly gathered in prayer.
3. Acts 2:42 – They followed God’s accurate Word, shared the joy of salvation, and devoted themselves to prayer.
4. Acts 3:1–12 – The crippled beggar at the Beautiful Gate received salvation and was healed.
5. Acts 8:4–8 – God showed that He can save the entire church through one person.

3. Paul and His Team Blocked the Disasters of the World

1. Acts 13:1–12 – Paul saw 300% and fulfilled his mission.
2. Acts 16:6–10 – Though a Roman citizen, Paul chose prison to follow God’s plan.
3. Acts 17:1–9 – In Thessalonica, Paul proclaimed Christ and met disciples such as Jason, Greek believers, and prominent women who would continue the ministry.
4. Acts 18:1–4 – Paul’s ministry had specialization, field awareness, and a system that sustained the work of 300%.
5. Romans 16:1–27 – When we wait on the guidance of the Holy Spirit through prayer, God answers at the most accurate time schedule.

Conclusion – The Master of the Mystery of 300% Is God

1. Sovereignty, Predestination, Providence, Decree, and Purpose
God is sovereign over every part of our lives and has saved us. He has prepared everything for those who are saved, and He holds the perfect time schedule for each one. In all things, God works with a good and perfect goal in mind.

2. Living in 24 with 300%
If you remain in 24-hour prayer with the 300% mystery, everything becomes the 25—the time schedule directly connected to God’s answers. Then everything becomes eternal, becoming God’s masterpiece that saves the world.

3. The System of the Throne
Finally, the system of the throne—the system that saves the world—is established.

The Preparation of the Scattered Disciples

2025.09.06 Scattered Disciples
The Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC to Save the 237 Nations and the 5000 Tribes (36)
– Model 32 of 7∙7∙7 –
Scripture Reading: Acts 9:15


Scattered disciples. The reason we conclude with scattered disciples is because they are the answer. Now, regarding this, there are some things we must quickly examine.

1. Prayer 300% (Acts 9:15, 19:8)
For multiethnic disciples and scattered disciples, you must absolutely establish prayer 300%. That is the 7 bartizans, the journey, and the guideposts. In Acts 9:15, it says that Paul was a “chosen instrument to stand before kings”; and in Acts 19:8, it speaks of “the work of the kingdom of God.”

2. Training 300% (Acts 11:25–26)
Scattered disciples must absolutely undergo training 300%—this is evangelism training. In Acts 11:25–26, Paul went to the church of Antioch and uncovered the full training system there.

3. Future 300% (Acts 18:1–4)
Paul met the couple Priscilla and Aquila—this is future preparation 300%. Refer to Acts 18:1–4.

This is how it must be done.

To all the pastors in the Honam region: begin 300%. Put it into practice. Especially for Yeolbangbit Church, hold firmly to the covenant so that you may become a model.

Prayer. Heavenly Father, we give You thanks. Let us see the works of God. Let us testify to the power of God. Give new strength to all the pastors in Honam. Use Yeolbangbit Church to save the nations. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

24-Hour People That Raise Servants of the Lord

Prayer Journal: June 5, 2026
2025.09.06 Core
The Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (36)
– RTS Sunday –
Scripture Reading: Isaiah 62:6-12


We must carry important evidence with us today. We need to examine the 24 people who helped the servants of the Lord. Therefore, it is right that you always pray for RTS. Why? Because through the people of RTS, world evangelization will be accomplished in the future. For this reason, there is no excuse for our RTS: wherever you are, you must receive answers. If you do not receive answers, it becomes a problem; but if you do receive answers, nothing will be a problem.

▣ Introduction
[Spiritual problem]
Now, here is something I want to say to unbelievers: why must it be only Christ? Because you cannot solve your spiritual problem. You must know this first. Only one word solves the spiritual problem: Christ. Every religion contains admirable teachings, but none provides a way to meet God. That is why God promised Christ. And as global disasters intensify, no one can block them—that is why He sent the true High Priest. And we cannot overcome Satan—that is why He sent the true King. That word is Christ.

[The way]
Newcomers who are just beginning the life of faith must know the way. “Ah, this is the way.” Only when you know the way can you enjoy answers.

[True help]
For our church leaders now: “How are we really going to raise RTS men? How will we help the servants of the Lord?” What is true help? You must quickly confirm this first.

[Spiritual problem] – the essence of life
If the most important answer to the spiritual problem has been given, then the essence of life must be the same for us.

[The way] – goal
If you are to walk the way properly, your goal must be correct.

[True help] – communication in prayer
And the important question is: what is true help? Your prayer must communicate with the pastor’s prayer and the church leaders’ prayer. These three resolve everything. If your prayers and those of the servants of the Lord do not communicate, it is practically the same as having no relationship. They must communicate. We will speak more on this shortly.

[Spiritual problem] – the essence of life – prayer 24(7 bartizans), prayer 25(journey), eternity(masterpiece)
What does it mean that the essence of life is the same? It means that the prayer 24 Jesus taught must be the same. That is the 7 bartizans. Also, the prayer 25 Jesus promised—the kingdom of God—must be the same, for only then can we walk the journey. Jesus also explained the guideposts; these must be the same as well. Only then will a masterpiece be produced—eternity. Hold to this as your covenant—it must be the same.

[The way] – goal – the three-day weekend age(strength), 3 courtyards(healing), the holy meditation age(summit)
And the way must be the same. What is this way? The important the three-day weekend age. In this, you must gain great strength. This will become a great field in the future, so church leaders must remember it. In the 3 courtyards, healing takes place in all. What is the holy meditation age? It is to truly raise summits. In this way, the way must be the same. This is what Jesus taught.

[True help] – communication in prayer – Philippians 1:3–4, 2 Corinthians 1:11, Romans 16:1–2, 16:3–4, 16:23
And in true help, your prayers and the servants of the Lord’s prayers must communicate.
Philippians 1:3–4 says, “always in every prayer of mine.” This must communicate. “Always in every prayer of mine for you all…” Pastors—people like Pastor Kim Ik-Joo—must pray all day for the church leaders. All day. We should pray for each person by name, but even when not naming each one, they must be always within our prayers. And what do we give to God in prayer? Thanks.
Even in 2 Corinthians 1:11, it says, “helping together by prayer for us.” When you truly pray for your pastor and for the seminary students, the doors of evangelism will open.
In Romans 16:1–2, it says “protector.” You must become protectors of the servants of the Lord—coworkers and patrons. In this way, prayer must communicate.

These three—spiritual problem, the way, true help—are extremely important. The essence of life must be the same; this is the promise given by Christ. The goal must be the same. And the prayer must be the same. When this happens, works arise.

Therefore, if you are not careful, you may treat seminary students and RTS men lightly. RTS men must first receive strength.

From childhood I often heard elders gathering and worrying about two things: “Our church budget is short. And we have too many staff pastors; I wish some would leave. Too many staff are unproductive.” Hearing that from an early age made me sad. Our RTS family must never be treated that way. Wherever you go, you must revive the field.

Once, when I went to serve as a pastoral intern at a famous church in Busan, the elders all came out to interview me—for a pastoral intern position. Among them was Elder Kim Kwang-il, whom I had only heard about. He asked me, “Reverend, do you have anything particular concerning evangelism?” I didn’t know how best to answer, so I said, “I truly want to make evangelism the answer of my life.” The look in his eyes changed—he saw something. He said, “Ours is a big church, but the children’s ministry has never exceeded 100.” I simply said, “Understood.” In the end, thousands of children gathered. It was there that people came to understand Darakbang, and many things were realized.

And do you know the origin of the tithe? When the land was allotted to the 12 tribes, the tribe of Levi received no land. The other 11 held land. Why? Because God said, “The Levites are to do only the Lord’s work—pray only. If you farm and harvest, we will give you a tenth of yours. We will farm; you pray for us.” When the eleven give a tenth, it equalizes things. In a sense, the tithe is not merely an offering—it is God’s. It is something to be given originally. That is the origin of the tithe. If you simply give the tithe properly, the church budget will never fall short. Never.

When I was young, my mother was poor—she raised us alone after my father passed away. Yet she never once missed the tithe. I used to wonder, “Why give that much?” But as decades passed, we never fell seriously ill. Isn’t that a miracle? There were five of us including my mother and four siblings, and not once did we need to go to the hospital. Even now she doesn’t have white hair. That is God. I realized, “This is not for nothing. That tithing and praying—that’s not legalism.” I came to understand something.

If the budget is short, it’s because people do not tithe. If you suffer insult, it is because you do not know evangelism. This must change.

Especially since this is RTS Sunday, truly pray. Wherever the RTS family goes, things must come to life. There is no other reason. The future must be revived because of RTS. I am confident that God will strengthen them—because only then can world evangelization happen. World evangelization is not done by impressive people; it is done by those who possess the gospel. It is not done by the capable; it is done by those who continue. No matter how capable you are, if you do not continue, world evangelization will not be accomplished.

If we can just find the answers in this Introduction, that’s enough. This is the way our RTS family must walk, and our way must be the same. All our church leaders, workers, and elders must walk the same way. This is not my word; this is what Jesus has given.

▣ Main Message: Evidence
Now then, you have prayed for RTS, for seminary students, and for pastors—let me present evidence of the answers that came.

1. Old Testament era
2. New Testament era
3. Paul’s missionary team

We see this in the Old Testament and the New Testament, and especially in Paul’s missionary team. You already know these accounts. Just hold to the evidence.

1. Old Testament era
In those difficult times, a man named Jethro helped Moses. That was extremely difficult and dangerous—if you help Moses, Egypt could kill you. Yet he helped him. And God raised the work of the Exodus. It seems small—he simply helped his son-in-law—but the Exodus took place.

As you know, Hannah prayed holding to the covenant, and the Mizpah movement arose. And Obadiah helped Elisha, and the Dothan movement occurred. This is evidence.

On the three-day weekend or on the Lord’s Day, you must certainly hold to God’s Word as your evidence—because that Word is fulfilled. When is it fulfilled? When you hold to God’s Word accurately and firmly.

As you know, the remnants who heard Isaiah’s words went in and raised the Babylon movement and the Temple restoration movement. Even without strength, it is fine.

2. New Testament era
Look at the New Testament. People with no power gathered, but they held to the covenant. They overcame the Jews. They overcame Rome. The evidence is clear. They literally conquered Asia, Macedonia, and Rome.

3. Paul’s missionary team
1) Asia
2) Macedonia
3) Rome
Especially, Paul’s missionary team completely conquered Asia, Macedonia—and ultimately Rome.

Therefore, the RTS family must always keep this in mind:
You are spiritual physicians who heal those with spiritual problems.
You are spiritual watchmen who guide the way—not just anyone can use the word “spiritual”; others do not understand it.
You are spiritual leaders who save the world.

If this is so, then you who raise even one servant of the Lord will receive the same answers as in this Main Message. Always remember this. Today and tomorrow, hold to the Word that lives and works. With that, you can see the flow. Hold to prayer that lives and works. And evangelism must become visible. Look at the 5,000 tribes—you can see them, can’t you? Therefore, create a system that can gather multiethnic peoples; create a system that can save multiethnic peoples. If it were me, I would immediately gather them to my house and start a multiethnic school—immediately: “Come, we’ll help you complete elementary, middle, and high school equivalency.” It’s not very difficult. Multiethnic parents spend all day worrying about their children. They must work. They aren’t asking for elite training; they’re pleading, “Please watch over our children.” This is a golden opportunity—from what I see, it is the perfect time.

Therefore, you do not know what may happen in the future through one disciple you raise.

Prayer. May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings, and the infinite love of God, and the working of the Holy Spirit, be upon workers and church leaders across the nation and the world, upon all the churches in the Honam region today, and upon Yeolbangbit Church, from now and to eternity, always. Amen.

RTS That Remnants Must See

Prayer Journal: June 4, 2026
2025.09.06 Remnant and TCK Study of Evangelism
The Evangelist’s Life and the Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (36)
– Model 32 of the 3 Courtyards –
Scripture Reading: 1 Corinthians 16:18


▣ Introduction

1. Gospel + Skill
This is not so much a request as it is an encouragement for your prayers: we need remnants who truly have the gospel and also have skills to apply as pastoral candidates. Both are important—you must have the gospel, and you must also be equipped with capability. It’s good if those who are more academically capable also apply to become pastoral candidates. Now, ministry is not built on skills alone, of course, but we still need capable people to enter seminary and RTS.

2. Evangelism, Missions 300%
When they get there, they must prepare for evangelism and missions 300% in advance. Since they usually study for seven years, they have enough time to do it all. They must complete this preparation. If this 300% focus on evangelism and missions is missing, they cannot succeed.

3. RTS, RLS, RGS
We have RTS, RLS, and RGS. Your church must become a training ground for internships. RTS must prepare this properly. It cannot simply recruit students forcefully and operate superficially. That approach won’t work.

That’s why I told RLS directly: “Create a field for internships.” In the U.S., there are even students who take a year off from school to come here and do internships. That’s the level we need to aim for.

[Summer School, Winter School]
Especially for those in the Honam region, and particularly for Yeolbangbit Church, there’s a need to establish programs like Summer School and Winter School. RTS should also consider such programs, offering special training—even for just a few days.

We should create a structure where gifted students move back and forth between these training environments, naturally being led into seminary, rather than constantly recruiting inorganically. Your church should run these programs too. Use the students’ school breaks to train them for a few days, reviewing what they learned at WRC and applying it in practice.

I’ve mentioned this before: there’s a female pastor outside our denomination who once came to me after a service to express her gratitude. She said, “I attend your gatherings, I write down your entire message, and then I gather my church members the same day and teach them everything I learned.” And she said, “Our church is coming alive. I am so grateful.” And this isn’t even one of our members.

But in our own churches, so many training messages are delivered, and yet they are not being applied. Isn’t that true? It’s a serious issue. These practical times of training and application are needed.

▣ Main Message

So, what preparations must remnants make if they are going to study theology?

1. 2 Timothy 2:1–7
2. Acts 18:24–28
3. Colossians 4:7–8

These three are very important, though all Scripture is important. Among them, these passages especially stand out.

1. 2 Timothy 2:1–7 [Always]
2 Timothy 2:1–7 must be practiced always. What does it teach?

1) Competitor
You must be a spiritual competitor running the race of faith.

2) Soldier
You must be a spiritual soldier fighting the good fight.

3) Farmer
You must be a spiritual farmer, sowing and reaping persistently.

What do these three have in common? They do continually.

2. Acts 18:24–28

1) Water baptism
This was explained to Apollos. Water baptism is important because it is an act of confession of faith.

2) Spirit baptism
However, more important than water baptism is Spirit baptism.

3) RT minister
After holding to the covenant, Apollos became a complete RT minister, committed to training others in the gospel movement.

3. Colossians 4:7–8
In Colossians 4:7–8, there are three forms of accuracy that must be secured:

1) Paul
You need someone who can accurately communicate Paul’s situation.

2) Believers
You also need someone who can accurately communicate the believers’ situation. This isn’t easy; people often misreport things, right? It’s rare to find someone who delivers information exactly as it is.

3) Local situation
Finally, you must have someone who can accurately understand the local situation. Without this, evangelism will fail. If you don’t understand the field, how can you bring the gospel there?

When you fact-check what people say, it often turns out wrong, even if it sounds close. That’s why Paul had a person whom he completely trusted: Tychicus. Paul knew, “If Tychicus says it, it’s correct.” That’s why Paul entrusted him with special assignments.

Evangelism and missions require that you first analyze the local situation thoroughly. This must be accurate and detailed.

Whenever I enter a field, I begin with this analysis. For example, even when I visit hotels in America, I collect as many printed materials as possible. I also ask essential questions: “How much is your monthly wage?” You need to know these things to understand the reality of people’s lives.

I remember visiting the Philippines about 20 years ago and asking a hotel employee what they earned. They said \$100 a month. Imagine that—a worker at a luxury hotel earning only about 100,000 KRW at the time. Immediately, I could understand the economic situation and living standards of the people.

It’s the same for understanding church members’ situations and pastors’ conditions. Remnants preparing for ministry must develop this kind of detailed field awareness.

▣ Conclusion

Acts 17:1–4
So, what’s the conclusion of RTS? They looked far ahead and went to Thessalonica, explaining the completeness of Christ.

Acts 18:1–4
Looking ahead, they entered the synagogue to teach people what worship is, what prayer is, and what the life of faith is.

Acts 19:8
Then they explained what it means to receive answers. Through this, these remnants eventually came to influence the world.

Prayer. Heavenly Father, we give You thanks. Let Your Word work powerfully within us for the rest of this time. Let the works of prayer arise. Let the power of darkness be broken, and let the forces of evil be bound. Use us so that only the gospel may bring salvation to the entire world. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

RTS That Businesspeople Must See

2025.09.06 Business Missions
The 237 Nations and the Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (36)
– Bartizan 32 of the 3-day Weekend Age –
Scripture Reading: 1 Kings 18:1-15


Of course, this message is being heard nationwide and globally. However, I especially hope that it becomes a new beginning for the Honam region. And particularly for our Yeolbangbit Church, this will be a new beginning.

Some large churches have gone through such difficulties before. Churches like Yoido Somang Church, Gwangmin Church, and others have all faced heavy attacks. But each time, the elders in those churches stood firm with strength and prayer, and thus, they overcame. And now, we are also facing considerable attacks, which may last for several years.

Yet, many pastors and church leaders have united their strength through prayer, and because of this, our world evangelization is progressing even better. Among these works, something truly surprising happened—so surprising that I thought, “How can such a thing happen here in Gwangyang?” But the elders and congregation became one in oneness and protected the church. This has become a tremendous source of strength for us.

And by God’s grace, Pastor Kim Ik-Joo has now been sent to Gwangyang. From what I can see, I believe significant works will take place here. So the elders and congregation must begin preparing their vessels for this work. I also hope that the entire Honam region will become a model of blessing—a region where the churches gain new strength.

The first day I visited Seoul, I went to three churches: Yoido Full Gospel Church, the well-known Youngnak Church, and Chunghyun Church, which I had always wanted to see. On the way back, I also stopped by Myeongdong Cathedral.

At the three churches, I felt many things, but to summarize it in one phrase: “They are striving hard.” However, when I entered Myeongdong Cathedral, I felt something completely different. I thought, “Ah, this place inevitably draws people.” On weekdays, the three churches were empty, but the cathedral was packed even on a weekday. It was so crowded that there were traffic police inside the cathedral directing people. That was many decades ago, and I’m not sure if it was a special occasion, but that was my impression.

When I first started the ministry in Busan, I began by expanding the system. Since Busan consists of 13 regions, I analyzed all 13 regions carefully. Although we had only a small number of members at the time, we began a word movement in 300 places simultaneously. Then, we immediately entered the training system. That’s why, for the past 38 years, we’ve come this far without rest.

It’s not just about growing from dozens of people to thousands; the bigger miracle is that pastors all across the nation and the world have now risen and started the evangelism movement. And now, this movement is reaching the multiethnic people. This is exactly how it must be done.

We must make it so that when sick people think of where to go, they say: “Let’s go to Yeolbangbit Church rather than Gwangyangbit Church.” We must make it so that smart remnants say: “Let’s go learn at Yeolbangbit Church.” That’s how you prepare the field. And we must apply the training system from the headquarters exactly as it is, so that the members of this church will lead from the frontlines.

Right now, where are the multiethnic groups concentrated? In the countryside or in Seoul? They are mostly in local regions. For example, in Pyeongtaek, 80% of elementary school students are multiethnic; only 20% are Korean. Gwangyang is likely the same.

So, where should we start? Establish an international school. Let multiethnic families come. Make them say, “Ah, now that I came to this church, my path to education is open.” There’s nothing difficult about it; they can take the qualification exam.

Right now, the biggest concern of multiethnic parents is their children’s education. They brought them here, but they don’t know how to educate them. They don’t have money, and it’s hard for them. We need churches that save these families. Such churches must exist.

Inside RTS, there are many foreign students—use them. You don’t have to pay them much; they came with a mission, so they will go anywhere. While doing this, create the courtyard of holy meditation, the courtyard of prayer, the courtyard for children, and the courtyard of healing.

Today, we must discuss how we, as workers, should view RTS.

[Obadiah]
There are many examples we could look at today, but let us examine Obadiah. He was a church leader and a worker.

This same passage will be used for tomorrow’s first service, so today I will only share prayer topics.

[1 Kings 18:1–15]

▣ Main Message

1. 100 people
Obadiah risked his life to hide 100 prophets. Isn’t that incredible? A few things are included here: he used his calling, his position, and the crisis when prophets were being killed—all to dedicate himself to God’s work.

2. 7000 disciples
Do you know how far his support extended? To the 7000 disciples. When Elijah went to Mount Horeb, God said that He had reserved 7000 disciples who had not bowed to Baal. Obadiah had a hidden role in this as well. He was connected to that work.

3. Dothan City
But it didn’t end there. This later transitioned into the Dothan movement. The dedication of one church leader and worker became the turning point that changed the world.

1. 100 people

1) The age
We must see what Obadiah saw: he saw the age. Life or death was not what mattered; he discerned the spiritual age. He didn’t calculate risks like, “This is dangerous, maybe I shouldn’t do it.” He simply saw what God was doing.

If you’re in Gwangyang or in the Honam region, you must see the age. Otherwise, you cannot save people. Right now, the multiethnic age has come. The marginalized age has come. You must open your spiritual eyes quickly.

Sadly, Korean politicians are always late—often by a century. But we must prepare Korea to become a multiethnic nation, not just a single-ethnic nation. God has a reason He is sending children to be born abroad and bringing the nations here. We must open the doors for multiethnic peoples—visas, systems, and everything.

At least 100 million people should eventually gather here in Korea. Remember the 2002 World Cup? The entire nation went wild in unity. But that’s not necessarily a great boast—it happened because everyone shared the same ethnic background. Imagine if half the population had been multiethnic—Korea wouldn’t have reacted that way.

That’s why you must see the age. This is the multiethnic age. And look around—the sick, the spiritually oppressed, the lost—it’s the age of spiritual problems. We cannot leave this unaddressed.

2) Spiritual understanding
Obadiah also saw the spiritual reality. He resolved, “Even if I die, I must do this.” When one church leader truly holds to the covenant, works arise.

3) Strengths
Obadiah also saw the strengths of Elijah and Elisha, whom he served. Everyone has strengths; you must discover and nurture them. If you fail to use them, you end up opposing God’s will.

For example, in this church, we have Pastor Kim Ik-Joo. He is a former U.S. Marine. If a fight breaks out, no one can defeat him—he’s trained differently. He’s fluent in English and Korean. Some people are good at English but poor in Korean, and that doesn’t work either. God has prepared him perfectly, and now, the timetable has come.

We must raise remnants and also focus on healing. We must be able to give assurance to the sick.

2. 7000 disciples
From this point forward, Obadiah’s work became even more hidden. This is critical. People often want to reveal themselves, but Obadiah stayed hidden.

1) Invisible ministry
He continually carried out a hidden ministry behind the scenes.

2) Generational transition
He saw the transition from Elijah to Elisha. You must open your eyes to this generational shift as well.

3) The time schedule for gathering
As we said, God said He had reserved 7000 disciples. Now came the timetable to gather them. Obadiah saw this.

3. Dothan City

1) 1 Kings 19:19–21
At this stage, the age of Elisha arrived silently. It was the beginning of an era when God would raise His servant to the highest level. This is the Dothan movement. It didn’t happen randomly; in the midst of a great crisis, Elijah called Elisha. Elisha left everything and followed. Elijah was, in effect, a wanted man, yet Elisha gave up all conditions to join him.

2) 2 Kings 2:9–11
Here’s something even more important: many servants of God end up making ministry about personal survival. Jericho? It’s comfortable. Bethel? Nice. Gilgal? Great. But Elisha rejected all of it. Instead, he asked for the double portion of Elijah’s spirit. His vessel was different.

3) 2 Kings 6:8–24
Elisha later established the Dothan movement, and the one who silently supported all of this was Obadiah.

To all the church leaders listening to this message, receive this blessing. And to all the church leaders at Yeolbangbit Church, receive this blessing as well.

▣ Conclusion

What results come from such amazing blessings?

1. Victory
They won without fighting. There’s a saying: winning 100 out of 100 battles isn’t true victory. True victory is winning without fighting.

2. Answers
Second, they received answers beyond their own thoughts. From now on, the pastors, ministers, and church leaders of Yeolbangbit Church must receive answers so complete that your thoughts aren’t needed. If your thoughts are still the focus, it’s evidence there are no answers yet.

If there are no answers, of course, you’ll rely on your own thoughts. But when God’s answers come upon your church and your work, you won’t need to do anything else. Obadiah didn’t need to choose anything else—he saw God’s answers and simply followed them. That’s why these works took place.

3. Everybody
Lastly, this wasn’t just about saving Israel. Even Aram was saved. Through this, everyone was saved. That was the result of Obadiah’s life.

That’s why all church leaders and workers across the nation must receive this blessing. There is no other reason. If you don’t receive God’s answers, you’ll rely on old things, your own things—and that’s the beginning of failure.

If God is with your work, you don’t need anything else. Nothing else is necessary. This blessing must come upon you.

Prayer. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings, and the infinite love of God, and the powerful working of the Holy Spirit, be upon all workers and church leaders across the nation and the world, upon all the churches in the Honam region, and upon Yeolbangbit Church, from now and to eternity. Amen.

What Christ Commanded

Prayer Journal, September 5, 2025
2024.09.12 – The 19th North America Businesspersons Evangelism Conference, Lecture 1
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-14


In America right now, pluralism that seeks to eliminate Christ is rampant, and America is exporting this to the entire world. Also, the three organizations are spreading the Nephilim movement globally. Moreover, there’s a strong movement in America advocating for the elimination of gender and religious discrimination. Darkness has covered the situation. Recently, the New York Times reported that by 2030, about one-third of the churches in the U.S. will close. Will it really happen? The gospel has never stopped even once. Even during the Middle Ages when the gospel seemed absent, it was testified to most powerfully. You must realize that in every generation, God always raised up church leaders and workers. Before Moses, God had already raised up people like Jochebed and Jethro. Before Samuel and David, God raised Hannah and Jesse. Before Elijah and Elisha, God established a church leader named Obadiah. For the evangelization of Rome, God first raised the church leaders and workers in Romans 16. God can fulfill His work even with just one person. During the Remnant Age, God worked through just one Remnant. God’s power is not in numbers. So, why are American churches closing? Naturally, they will close. Korean churches are also becoming more serious. Many churches are closing. We have entered this crisis, this age of darkness. And in this era, God has called you.

This time, you must know three things. What is the first?

▣ Introduction – Reason
What is the reason that churches are closing? You must know the reason. Why are Korean churches closing? Of course, they are bound to close. Why? Because they keep doing everything except what Jesus taught. All you need is to open your spiritual eyes. Even when they go to church, people continually do the very things Jesus told them not to do. The things Jesus commanded us to do, they absolutely refuse to do. It’s not that it’s impossible; it’s just inevitable that they fail. Jesus told us to forgive seventy times seven, yet churches refuse to forgive even once. Isn’t that true? Jesus told us to bless many people and preach the gospel, but instead, we keep gossiping and talking about others. People keep doing only the things Jesus forbade.

1) Jews
Especially the Jews—their entire ideology was wrong from the start. They developed this chosen-people superiority complex. That ideology eventually became one that brought hatred from the entire world. Right? They believed, “Jehovah is the God of Israel only,” and “The Messiah is only to save Israel.” This was such a distorted belief.

2) Pharisees
Especially the Pharisees—the so-called orthodox church leaders of the time. Even today, if you listen to the most conservative denominations in Korea, their speech is exactly the same as the Pharisees. Even the words are identical. It’s shocking. Nobody even taught them this, yet they sound just like Pharisees, which means the church cannot thrive. Simply put, they cannot receive answers. No matter how much they pray, they will not receive answers. Why? Because they are doing the wrong things.

As soon as Jesus called His disciples, He said this in Matthew chapter 5: “The blessing you think you have—it’s not a blessing. You’re under Roman occupation and will soon perish, yet you think you’re blessed just because you hold a high position? That’s not blessing. Blessed are the poor in spirit. Blessed are those who mourn. Blessed are those who are persecuted, for they will inherit the kingdom of God.” And regarding prayer, He told them: “Do not pray like you are doing now. Do not pray to be seen by people—that’s not prayer. Do not keep babbling meaningless requests—your Father already knows what you need.” Then in Matthew chapter 7, He said: “Seeking to prove who’s right and wrong in church—that is not faith. That’s why you can’t see the plank in your own eye but notice the speck in your brother’s eye.” That’s not faith. He gave a parable: it’s like building a house on sand. It looks solid, but when storms come, it collapses.

During His three years of ministry, Jesus did two main things besides dying on the cross: He taught and He changed everything. He even ate with tax collectors—the people Jews despised—because they loved the Word. He forgave the woman who wept at His feet, while the Jews came ready to stone her. On the Sabbath, He healed the sick—completely overturning their distorted understanding. But today, we are living our faith exactly like the Pharisees. Naturally, there are no answers. I can usually tell right away whether a church will experience revival or decline. It’s inevitable. People must discern this quickly. Once you understand, God’s works naturally follow.

Just like it is natural for a man and woman to get married and have children—there’s no need to attend training or academies to make it happen—spiritual life is the same. Life gives birth to life. If you truly have the gospel, spiritual fruit naturally comes forth.

Jesus often used parables because people had the wrong understanding. He said, “Your faith may seem small like a mustard seed, but that life will grow into a tree.” The true gospel and covenant you hold may seem invisible now, but it spreads like yeast. It may look like you are sacrificing for the Lord, but beneath that sacrifice is an eternal treasure hidden for you. It may seem like you’re carrying just a bag, but inside, you have the most precious pearl. Jesus used parables so that those with ears to hear would understand—and also so that those who shouldn’t understand, wouldn’t. He said clearly: “Not everyone should grasp this. If the wicked and violent understand this mystery, they’ll misuse it.”

This year, you must seriously find the answer as to why things haven’t worked for decades. Why are American churches closing? Because they’re not doing what Christ commanded. And before Jesus gathered them to the Mark’s Upper Room, He first called them to Mt Olive and gave them the complete message. But they are not doing this.

3) Temple
Now, let’s talk about Herod’s Temple. The problem was that it became an idol. What’s the most critical issue here? The three courtyards were missing. God Himself designed them, yet they were completely corrupted. In the Temple, they started selling animals and exchanging money. The Gentiles’ courtyard, the children’s courtyard, and the prayer courtyard were completely taken over by business. In any nation, if people don’t know God’s power, money becomes god. They were making profit inside the Temple itself.

When you offered sacrifices, you had to buy animals there. Inspectors would reject animals brought from outside, forcing you to buy theirs. They even demanded Temple-specific currency, charging commission on every exchange. The profits were enormous. That’s why Jesus flipped the tables in anger, driving them out with a whip. A church without the three courtyards must close its doors.

Satan’s bartizan
Do you know what’s even more important? Jesus Himself said it: the bartizan of Satan inside us. If this remains, failure is inevitable.

1) Matthew 12:28–30
Here, Jesus wasn’t speaking to unbelievers. He was speaking directly to Pharisees who thought they were faithful: “There is a strong man, Satan, in your house. Unless the Spirit of God comes and binds him, you cannot overcome him. But when the Spirit comes, the kingdom of God has come upon you.” Satan builds his stronghold inside people.

2) Matthew 12:43–45
Evil spirits also build their homes inside us. You can repent, strive harder, clean yourself outwardly, and even have fellowship—but without Christ, seven stronger spirits return. It’s useless. Satan grips people like their master. The reason there are no answers is simple: people are not doing what Jesus taught.

3) 2 Corinthians 10:1–5
Paul said, “We demolish strongholds,” because Satan sets up a fortress inside us. Without destroying that fortress, nothing works.

Check yourself carefully. If answers aren’t coming, you cannot receive them. No matter how much you serve, nothing will work. No matter how much you pray, there will be no results. Churches will close. Members will leave. Evangelism won’t happen. It’s inevitable as long as Satan’s bartizan stands. That must be completely broken.

▣ MainNew bartizan (John 14:16, 26; 16:13; Acts 1:8; Acts 19:8; 1 Corinthians 3:16)
So what must we do? We must do what Christ commanded. You must firmly remember this and build an entirely new bartizan—the one Christ Himself gave. You must quickly discern this.

Before His death, Jesus said, “Do not tell anyone about the confession of Christ yet, for you are not ready.” After Peter confessed, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God,” Jesus praised him greatly, yet He said, “Do not tell anyone yet” (Matthew 16:20). But after the resurrection, everything changed. On Mt Olive, He called them and gave His command: “You will receive power, and you will be My witnesses to the ends of the earth.” That’s the turning point.

Where must this new bartizan be built? Inside you. This is critical. At the end, Jesus emphasized only one thing: “I will send you the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, and He will be with you forever.” In John 14:16, He said the Holy Spirit would make you understand all things. When the Holy Spirit comes upon you, He will not only give you understanding but also remain with you forever. Just as John baptized with water, you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit and receive power to be His witnesses to the ends of the earth.

Paul understood this deeply. In Acts 19:8, he boldly proclaimed the kingdom of God. And in 1 Corinthians 3:16, Paul said: “Do you not know that you are God’s temple and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?” You must be conscious of this reality. It’s shocking: even among the Pharisees who seemed faithful, Jesus said, “Satan has built a house inside you. That fortress must be broken.”

Pastor Jang Hyun-tae, who ministered extensively in America, once said this on his first day there: “America is impossible.” And he was right—it’s impossible as long as this bartizan remains. But he also said, “It is absolutely possible if even one elder understands this.” That’s biblical. God always worked through one person who truly understood the gospel.

I’ve been persecuted for 30 years, from every direction, but all those who opposed the gospel eventually collapsed, while the gospel movement continues. People tried to stop Darakbang and criticized me, saying, “Pastor Ryu, you’re pushing too hard. At this rate, you’ll collapse within three years.” Ironically, many of those very people are no longer here, and I’m still preaching today. Why? Because God’s plan continues.

We are preparing for world evangelization, especially for the 5,000 tribes. I personally cannot reach all 5,000, which is why America must rise and send missionaries. We must raise talents from among the nations already here. That’s why RU was established—to discover true workers. The day RU raises the true ones, God will pour out His blessings.

1. 3 Concentration

First, elders and workers, from now on, you must commit to 3 concentrations. Don’t just set fixed prayer times—begin the moment you open your eyes in the morning. Don’t rely on a specific place either. Just start. Keep praying until you meet someone. Keep praying until you receive answers. Throughout the day, turn your conversations, thoughts, and actions into prayer. This is true concentration.

1) 7 Bartizans
(1) God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit promised to dwell within us—pray for that fulfillment.
(2) Through the power of the throne, He promised to be with us.
(3) From that comes the power to break the past, present, and future curses. Only Christ can resolve your past and secure your future.
(4) Inside this blessing are the 5 powers—spiritual, intellectual, physical, financial, and manpower strength.
(5) You receive authority to overcome the ruler of the air.
(6) Then comes CVDIP—discovering your covenant, vision, dream, image, and practice.
(7) Finally, you build the three courtyards in your workplace, church, and studies. These are the 7 bartizans.

This is what you concentrate on—not by setting aside special hours but by constantly enjoying them. As you work, you can do this continuously.

2) 7 Journeys
(1) My life journey follows the path where the Triune God works.
(2) The 10 foundations of the throne are my journey.
(3) The 10 secrets of the throne are my journey.
(4) The five assurances of victory are my journey.
(5) The constant flow from the throne is my journey.
(6) The journey where I receive and give lifelong answers.
(7) My entire life becomes a camp of the throne.

Why aren’t people doing this? Instead, they do everything except what Jesus taught. This journey includes your business, your health, your family—everything. If you worry night and day, it will destroy you and those around you. But if you enjoy this journey, answers naturally come, and the future is secured.

3) 7 Guideposts
(1) The covenant of Mount Calvary is my guidepost.
(2) The mission of Mt Olive is my guidepost.
(3) The Mark’s Upper Room experience is my guidepost.
(4) Antioch is my guidepost.
(5) The start of Asia is my guidepost.
(6) Macedonia is my guidepost.
(7) Rome is my final guidepost.

These 7 guideposts mark God’s roadmap for evangelism. Focus on these in your 3 concentrations. This is simple, powerful, and unstoppable.

2. 3 Setting
Second, what is it? If you enjoy the above, the 3 settings will naturally be established. As you keep enjoying this, the 3 settings are formed.

1) Platform (Only)
At last, a platform is built. What is the name of this platform? Only. Your business—only. Your work—only. There isn’t a lot you need to do; do only what you must. The people I’m most wary of are those who spread themselves too thin and try to do everything. Why? Do what you’re truly called to do, and then the setting emerges.

2) Watchtower (Uniqueness)
When this emerges, a watchtower that shines the light is raised. It’s the same essence as the bartizan, and from here, uniqueness appears.

3) Antenna (Recreation)
Then comes the communication that saves the world. This is the antenna. This is re-creation. It will surely come.

Elders, you must do this. Don’t try to receive answers; rather, let the kingdom of God come. Let the darkness be destroyed. Shine the light. Let the curses depart. Personally, I can’t point to a single case where I said, “I prayed and got this answer.” Yet the doors for evangelism open perfectly. Isn’t that enough? I never once prayed, “Give me this,” and yet as I kept 24-hour prayer, my height even shrank by 1 cm—but now, everything is clear. Exactly as I held to the covenant: this year the age of the 5,000 tribes will begin—watch next year.

3. 3 Answer
There are 3 answers you will visibly see.

1) Problems
Before, you avoided them; now you seek them out. You go to the problems—because you have the answer.

2) Conflict
You go into places of conflict and strife and give the answer. Then renewal naturally follows.

3) Crisis
And then what? Crisis. You don’t avoid it—you seek it out. Does your church seem to be facing difficulties? Go all-in. Hold fast in prayer and go all-in. The answer will come from the opposite side. If someone is facing problems, go all-in to save them. Don’t ever engage in what destroys. Then the works will surely arise.

Is this difficult? Do what Christ has given. Do what Christ commanded—what He ordered. I’m using the word Order intentionally: it’s what He gave to each individual. Why do people keep doing other things instead of this? It’s strange. Whatever grudge they carry, they refuse to do what Christ told them to do and keep doing only what He told them not to do. What kind of spirit is that? And yet, that’s the majority of people. Naturally, there are no answers. The door of evangelism won’t open. Even if there is just one living worker or church leader, it is enough. That’s certain. There’s nothing complicated about it. Usually, those who don’t truly know make things complicated. Those who have truly risen don’t do that. The half-trained monk talks the most; the true master doesn’t speak.

▣ Conclusion: 300%
Such blessings will come upon your work. 300%—whatever you do in business, do it like this; study like this; evangelize like this; do missions like this. Your boldness is good, and sometimes surging ahead may be led by the Holy Spirit—but it often bears no fruit. You must truly prepare this 300%. Then it becomes truly exciting. Answers begin before you even go out to evangelize. Wow—when you set up the gospel settings 100% for a certain region, and then you survey the field, you’ll be shocked—so many people are prepared. When I started in Busan, I had more than a dozen places lined up. I held back from moving forward only because the opposition was so fierce; I thought, “God must have a plan.”

1) Edit/Plan/Design
Keep editing until this becomes reality. And once you have a complete answer through the Word of God, keep planning. And what then? Keep designing. Keep going until the Word gives you a clear answer; keep planning until your prayer topics become crystal clear; keep designing until the field becomes visible. Evangelism, missions, studies, work—do everything this way. If it’s not visible, don’t go yet. Especially workers, from now on, do it like this.

2) 3 Courtyard
You must become the main figures of the three courtyards. The three courtyards have two expressions: one inside the church and one in the field. Paul began with prayer. What was it? The Gentiles’ courtyard—he carried out healing there. That’s the courtyard of healing and the courtyard of prayer. And then where did he go? To the synagogue—that’s the children’s courtyard. You must do it exactly like this. So, in a sense, you workers should establish memorials for the three courtyards. But never only outside—do it within the church. What you do outside will not remain eternally.

At Immanuel Seoul Church, when someone passed away, they entrusted their money to be used for the Lord’s work. So I instructed the church: “Create a TCK House bearing that person’s name.” That isn’t to glorify the person—it’s to leave footprints. From now on, workers, pray in this way. Do it within your church. Establish a Healing House bearing your family name, a TCK House bearing your family name. It can be done. These are memorials, not bragging. In some big countries, you’ll even see streets named after individuals.

3) 237- 5,000
Church leaders and workers, choose one nation among the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes. In the largest church in Los Angeles, raise 237 elders—assign each one nation. That’s the reason you live in America. Christ said to go to all nations, but we are not going because we lack the system. And raise Mexican and multiethnic pastors. People will come when there is a platform. That’s how we prepare for world evangelization. Answers cannot fail to come—because within us, the bartizan of God is standing. Therefore, I walk God’s journey and set up God’s guideposts everywhere. It cannot fail.

Think carefully. Even thinking correctly is enough. This is not first about practice; it begins with right thinking. Thought is everything, because it moves our brain, and the brain communicates with the soul—and that settles it. I need no other prayer within me—this alone is enough. I pray only this prayer. This is formed naturally. Since we already have this, it comes like this. Preparation is 300%. As these doors open one by one for church leaders and workers, your church cannot help but be revived. Every day, people keep doing what Jesus did not teach. Because they do this daily, the church doesn’t grow; it keeps shrinking; evangelism doesn’t happen; people fall into trials. Where is there time to be tested? We’re too busy receiving blessings. Try this—and you will see God’s astounding works begin.

Tomorrow, there are two things we must surely know—I will confirm them. Let’s give a round of applause to our Triune God who will save the world. I will pray.

Prayer. May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings, and the infinite love of God, and the powerful working of the Holy Spirit, be with our American workers who will save the world, from now and to eternity, always. Amen.

The 21st-Century Remnant

The 21st-Century Remnant
Jung-Min Kwon

God’s chosen few, God’s new beginning
For all the ages, the ones to do His will.
His one desire, God’s hope to save the world.
You, the Remnant.

Shine bright the light to those lost in the dark
Needing Jesus inside their blinded lives.
Shine it brightly unto this world of night
because this light that you’re shining will save all the world.

Stand and arise and shine the light of Christ.
For the world will see in you the glory of the Lord.

Stand and arise. Stand tall before the world.
For God will bring restoration to all nations because of you.

We Will Keep Our Faith Alive!

We Will Keep Our Faith Alive!
Don Besig · Nancy Price

Gathered here, within this place,
We can share in God’s redeeming grace.
There’s no room for doubt or fear;
We can feel His presence here.
As we face each passing day,
We will serve and honor and obey;
And if hope should start to dim,
We will know our trust is in Him.

And we will keep our faith alive,
God will always be our guide.
Through the darkest night, 
We will see God’s light.
We will keep our faith alive!

We will live as God has planned,
Though at times we may not understand.
Many things we may not see,
But our faith will help us believe.
From His Word we learn the truth;
Through His love we all are born anew.
With His help, we will not fail
For we know our God will prevail.  Chorus
