Church Construction Devotional Worship
Scripture Reading: Acts 18:1-4

Gorin Evangelism Church and the temple.
Paul – Priscilla
When we talk about the Corinthian church, two people are representative. It was Paul and Priscilla, the married couple.

[ Personal picture ]
From now on, you must each draw your personal picture.

[ 1. Church leaders – Moses, Paul ]
Our church leaders must not think, “We are old.” That is not a biblical statement. Be like Moses. Moses started at eighty. He worked forty more years, and it says that even when he went to be with the Lord he was still strong. And when Paul was close to eighty, he said this: “I have not yet attained anything.” And then he spoke about what he would accomplish in the future. That was when he was in a situation of being almost eighty.

[ 2. Young adults – 300% ]
And our young adults must prepare for 300% starting now. You must always draw this picture in your mind. Then even during worship it becomes prayer. Then when you go to the field it becomes prayer. Because this picture is not clear, we keep changing from time to time.

[ 3. Remnants – imprint, root, nature ]
Especially for our young remnants, this is now completely the time to imprint the bartizan, the journey, and the guidepost. We are doing these three things.

[ Historical buildings ]
Because God builds the temple, as you know, in the early church, church leaders were raised one by one. They left behind historical buildings that you simply cannot understand. Many people go to see them when they travel. “How did they build this?” Even though they are old, they do not collapse. I went to some places and they said that the pillars alone were a thousand years old.

[ Heart, thoughts, brain, soul, throne ]
So the meetings of these people became extremely important meetings. And there are times when what is contained in your heart and what is contained in your thoughts become the same. This becomes imprinted on your brain and imprinted on your soul. This connects with the throne.

[ Answers ]
Then answers absolutely come. This is the principle of answers. The United States is a big nation. So underneath it we say South America, and above it we call North America. But while North America, the United States, is well off, South America is not. Why? Because they keep thinking about receiving help. Then they must continually be helped. If you keep speaking unbelief, the fruits of unbelief will continually appear. You must discover God’s blessings, but if you do not discover them and keep living like that, your life becomes like that. These days our nation has become much brighter, and because we must do world evangelization, many blessings are coming. Even when we say the same word, in Korean we say, “The bird cries.” We see a bird and say it is crying as it makes a beautiful sound. In English they express it as, “The bird sings.” When something shocking happens, in Korean we immediately bring out all kinds of harsh consonants. But when something shocking happens to them, they immediately say, “Oh my God!” It means, “Oh, my God.” Even in very urgent situations, when we get angry, we say all kinds of things, but they say, “Jesus Christ.” The words are a bit different. So as you, as individuals, grow older, you must draw a clear picture. Because the seven remnants had a clear picture, everything changed into blessings. Because Joseph had a clear picture of world evangelization and held onto it, everything became blessings. For Joseph’s brothers, everything turned into hardship. They were all sons of the same father, but it was like that.

▣ Introduction_ The first temple [ David ]
So what about this temple—what was the very first temple? The representative figure here is David. He prepared this.

1. The temple of the heart (imprint)
   What did he do first? David first built the temple in his heart. He prayed in his heart that it would surely be built. That began to be imprinted. So God said to David, “Just by looking at your heart.”
2. The temple of faith (root)
   And he first built the temple of faith that would save the whole world. This began to take root.
3. The spiritual temple (nature)
   Then God revealed everything about how to build it. He completely built a spiritual temple in that. This became completely David’s nature. Before the physical temple was built, he used the word “temple” many times. So from now on, it is fine for the remnants to make it visible to their eyes. Draw a clear picture.

▣ Main Message
Now then, we need to go into the main message a bit, using the book of Acts.

1. Priscilla and Aquila – The temple of faith
   This is what you must absolutely enjoy first. It is the temple of faith that the Priscilla and Aquila couple built. You must absolutely have this.

1. Acts 2:10
   First, they participated in the Mark’s upper room, which was the field of the greatest answers. They also passed this picture on to Apollos.
2. Acts 18:1–4
   Then, because they faced hardship, they had to leave Rome, but that changed into the greatest blessing. So you do not need to worry about hardship. At the moment you think about it, hardship seems worrisome, but that is not so. In the end, they were almost driven out of Rome, but they were not driven out. They came to meet the evangelists of the age.
3. Acts 18:24–28
   They passed on this picture of the temple and of prayer to Apollos.
4. 1 Corinthians 16:19
   Before the temple was built, the regional temple was made first. That is 1 Corinthians 16:19.
5. Romans 16:3–4
   And as you know, they once again jumped into the evangelization of Rome. It has been confirmed that their graves are currently in Rome. This is the temple that is built first. Right now, all of you are doing ministry to multiethnic people and healing ministry. This is already building the temple first.

2. The temple God desires
   If so, what is the temple God desires? These days, as I think, one thought keeps coming: if we had done the temple construction according to our original prayers, it should have finished ten years ago. Right? If it had been like that, we would have missed the important message we are now holding onto and seeking. This must be done first. The temple must first be established in my heart, in my faith, and spiritually, and then the works follow. It is not that things will be done just because we have a building.

[ The temple that people cannot help but come to ]
The important thing here is that, in the future, we must build a temple that people cannot help but come to.

1. Three courtyards – a place of rest
   If we prepare three courtyards, people will have no choice but to come. We must make this 300%. Answers will continue to come. Later, it will become known all over the world. A wind can blow among the multiethnic people saying, “Let us go to Immanuel Church in Busan.” Then we just need to train them and send them out. That is why we must not just do things thoughtlessly; we must teach them one skill at a time so that, when they go back, they can reproduce. Our elder Kim Sung-su and others who are currently working with the multiethnic people are doing so thankfully and well, but if multiethnic people come, it is also fine to have them learn a skill and send them back. In our country it might not be that popular, but abroad, things like hairdressing are 100% popular. So while it is important to invite them, cut their hair, and send them back, what is more important is to call people from there, teach them the skill, and implant it. Taekwondo is now difficult to run in Korea, but it is very popular abroad. In the past, when Americans did not recognize Korea, one of the things they recognized was Taekwondo. So we must make it so that they can reproduce. Therefore, the most important thing in the three courtyards is that they must be a place where multiethnic people, the sick, and remnants can rest. With multiethnic people, you cannot be too strict and overly clear-cut. There is a hidden reason that these people cannot settle down in a church in Seoul. What is it? They keep hiding. They keep changing churches. So we cannot train them as disciples. Why is that? Visas. There are many with no visa. If they are too exposed, they get caught. So they keep avoiding such places. In the United States there are also many people who are caught because of visa issues. There are many Koreans like that too. So it must be said, “Immanuel Church is a church where you can rest.” It must be, “It is the safest church, like my own home.” If you continue to edit, plan, and design just a little more, this will come out. Here too, 300% comes out. Then multiethnic people have no choice but to flock. The sick will not come saying, “I hurt here and there,” but those who feel, “Ah, I need fundamental healing,” will gather. We show the way to the remnants. If we make this, people cannot help but come. Right now is just the beginning. Is not the Word frequently given and fulfilled?
2. The three-day weekend age – concentration
   Especially, what is the three-day weekend age? We must absolutely think about utilizing the mountain. Because we need a place where people can concentrate. In reality, for an individual, it should be that you come, read the Bible alone, pray, rest, and then come to the worship time. But there is no such place. Surprisingly, Buddhist temples have all of that. So even though temples do not evangelize, they keep increasing. Groups even come from outside to tour the temples. When they come, there is much to see. In this way they skillfully deceive people. Right? As I said in the morning, among your prayers there is the prayer of raising your voice. It is the most effective. But where do you have a small room to shout and pray? The church does not have such a place. Your prayer of raising your voice, the prayer of breathing, and the prayer of meditating on the Word are tremendous prayers. For example, if Elder Kang Chil-se sits in some corner and starts shouting, Elder Jo Ki-beom will be surprised and wonder, “What is he doing?” Right? It becomes like that. We do not understand the power of concentration, but when we concentrate, tremendous power comes out. Without realizing it, the brain comes alive. That is why, when you see a good environment and just say, “Ah, this is good,” you become revived. Just seeing that beautiful sea and the horizon and saying, “Ah, this is so good,” makes you come alive. So we must make it so that people cannot help but come. But the perfect opportunity is that this land of ours is no ordinary land, in fact. We bought it without knowing, but the land of Immanuel Seoul Church is no ordinary land. From what I see, we can do all three things there. We can have some place to rest, some place to concentrate. When Dr. Kim Jun-gon was alive, I often met him, and once he contacted us saying that he would visit the RUTC. It was just before he passed away, and he toured our RUTC. Then he told me something somewhat important. He asked whose the mountain was. I said that some of it was ours and some of it belonged to others. He said, “Make this a place of prayer.” And he said, “And if possible, when you gather people from all over the world, it is fine to put up tents here in the summer and hold conferences. Make it a place of rest where people come and rest.” That is what he said. It was quite an old-style suggestion, but I thought, “There is truth to this.” When hundreds of thousands of multiethnic people gather, there is no other way.
3. Holy meditation – crying out
   And as we open the age of holy meditation, this must be a temple where our members can do holy meditation. Among prayers, the greatest prayer is actually the prayer of crying out. The church cannot do this. We cannot do it during worship, and apart from going alone to a place where there are no people, we cannot do it. That is why He did not just tell Jeremiah to pray but said, “Call to Me.” In the past, when I drove my car alone, I did this prayer a lot. Truly a lot. These days, if I did it, our secretaries would be surprised, so I do nothing and stay quiet.

3. The temple that remains in history
   Now, it does not end there. We are preparing a temple that remains in history.

[ Eternity ]
The temple that remains in history means that, while you are here for just a short while and then go, the gospel movement and the temple are eternal.

1. Footprints
   You must leave your footprints here.
2. Monument
   Especially, we must at least leave something that says, “Ah, they did missions in such and such a nation.” Whether we receive blessings or not is not the issue. The direction God desires must be correct.
3. Answers
   Here, we leave three important answers.

(1) Bartizan of the throne
What is that? It is the bartizan of the throne that Jesus taught. The number can be whatever you receive in your answers. While I was praying, I found seven places, and because they were connected, I went out with them. There can be more, or there can be fewer.

(2) Journey of the throne

(3) Guidepost of the throne
When we come to the temple and pray, we must see the journey of the throne and leave the guidepost of the throne. This is eternal. So it becomes a church that people cannot help but come to. The people who first built the temple by faith gather there. And we go forth holding onto this picture. Then, if necessary, when our church reaches that point, all the members can take turns fasting in a relay, one day at a time. If you fast one day, your stomach shrinks and it is very good. So we keep doing it. When we were in the basement, we did this for three years. After doing it for three years, the door of world evangelization opened. It did not make sense. People from all over the nation and world were flocking to a 35-pyeong basement, and we could not handle it. We put up tents and borrowed other people’s houses, but even then we could not handle it. One pastor came in and stayed, but so many people were pushing in that he said he could not breathe. At that time it was to that extent. Now God is finally guiding us with the timetable of opening the door to the 5000 tribes.

▣ Conclusion
But there is something we must look at carefully.

1. A church where disciples gather
   First, because this important gospel disappeared, these temples have now all changed into places where tourists gather. These people built monumental temples showing how they had received answers. In places like England, when you see the temples, they are so big that you are shocked. But there is no worship, no believers, no gospel there, and only tourists gather. Because so many tourists come, they make money. At such a time, we must be a church where disciples gather. From now on, we must look at the age and prepare 300%. Especially for our two elders who are in music, you must prepare so that tourists who come to our church can see praise and musicals and such things. You must prepare, with much prayer, what to prepare. These things are greatly related to the opening of the multiethnic age. So we must be a church where disciples gather. In that sense, even if you remove all other skills in the future age, music and praise will become first priority in missions. I said something about this to Seoul already, but there has been no response; please study it. Why are those thirteen or fourteen island nations so important? Because they are the way to the 5000 tribes. So you must go once when they hold music festivals in places like Vanuatu. Only then can you praise together with those people. If you have never seen them once, it will take much more time. Then, we went to Africa. You have seen them praise in Africa, right? There is something amazingly different from us. Not a single person reads sheet music. They just do it. But they are good. Then, what must we do in order to hold a grand performance with them, using our sheet music together? So when we went last time, the president asked us to help educate their children. We must be a church where disciples gather.
2. 300% by field
   So, all the specialists in every field among you must prepare 300% in your respective fields. Then even if you tell them not to come, they will come.
3. Picture of the temple
   So, when you pray for the temple, what picture should you draw, besides your personal picture?

1. Multiethnic people (the three-day weekend age)
   You must draw the picture of multiethnic people flocking in and being sent out. This is mainly what we do during the three-day weekend age.
2. 2000–700 (holy meditation movement)
   Next, in Seoul there are 2000 regional churches, and in Busan we have 700 regional churches, right? What must arise in the 2000 and in the 700? The holy meditation movement must arise. This becomes a tremendous door of evangelism.
3. 24, 25, eternity (three courtyards)
   Next, you must draw the picture. You must make the three courtyards such that they become 24, 25, and eternity. You must continually draw this picture. Answers will begin to come in an amazing way. Once temple construction progresses fully, it is good to also give the members the Word they must hold onto daily. Relay prayer is something that is connected and done, and the Word must be given to everyone, so that those who pray can hold onto the Word and pray together. The temple construction team can make this. In the past, when I went to the field to do evangelism, I first set up relay prayer. And every week I delivered the Word. Originally, I copied it onto a single sheet of paper and delivered it every day. But once, there was a person with a mental disorder who kept following me around, begging me to save him. So what should I do? I was busy. Then, though it was basic, I got an idea. I wrote down all the verses that could only but heal this person. It was according to my own standard, but I wrote them down and explained them in words he could understand. When I gave it to him, he took it and memorized it, looked it up, and did everything with it. So rather than giving many sermons to the evangelism disciples, I gave them the Word. At that time I felt something for the first time: I had only said with my mouth that the Word is living and works, but I experienced it myself. “Ah, the Word truly is living and working.” When I thought, “Ah, I should give this Word to this person,” and sought it, I felt that God was working in me.

[ Answer, imprint, assurance, six days, flow of the meetings, core, prayer diary ]
So what is the final conclusion? Among today’s message, you will find an answer that makes you say, “I must do this.” I said in the morning: even if you just repeat and meditate on this Word a little, it will be imprinted. Then you will come to the assurance, “Ah, I must receive answers in this part.” Like Rockefeller, you must be able to pray for six days. When this becomes prayer for six days, look once at the flow of the meetings that come out during the week. When you see the titles, you will see the flow. It comes out like this. Then you finish everything with the core. You also open the three-day weekend age and finish. Then imagine that you are doing this every day. You must absolutely do this. Remnants especially must do it. You write it down in your prayer diary. Because if time passes, you forget, so you write it down. You will be surprised. You will be surprised that you only did this. One day you will realize that you are inside the evangelism movement. You will find yourself in the position of success, even though you did not struggle to succeed. Then you will end up helping others. That is the beginning of evangelism. So you must absolutely receive this answer.

So during this one week, many fruits that are invisible to the eye are set to arise. Simply put, I came here in 1987 and spoke about the Darakbang. It developed little by little, and where have we now come? We have come to the 5000 tribes. Without missing a single time in between, the Word has been fulfilled up to now. This is not for me, but it means that God has the plan to save the 5000 tribes through you. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that new grace will overflow this week. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, we thank You. Let there be the new grace You have prepared this week. Let darkness crumble wherever Your people go. Let the temple be prepared that people to be saved from all over the world cannot help but come to. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

2025.11.30 Sunday 1st Service
Scripture Reading: Romans 16:25-27

▣ Introduction
Thank you. Our remnants have a certain characteristic in that, every time we have a conference, they ask questions. The questions they always ask are things like, “How should I pray?” Questions like, “How do I discover God’s will?” The question itself is a blessing. Remnants do not need to discover it quickly. It is because you still have much life ahead of you. The life you have lived is short, and the distance you must still go is far, and that is why we tell you to pray. For those of us who are a bit older, the conclusion has already been made. Because we have lived long and are old, we either have a firm faith or a firm stubbornness. If we have firm faith, we can save many future generations. But if we have firm stubbornness, we give great harm to the future generations.

1. The three things seen while doing evangelism
After doing evangelism for about forty years, I came to realize a few things. There are many, but I came to see about three things.

1. People doing vain labor – powerful nations, the Jews, the Middle Ages
   The first thing was this: “Ah, people are almost all doing vain labor.” If you study history, the things powerful nations did are all vain labor. They should have thought about saving many nations, but instead they conquered and killed. They were almost all doing vain labor. Especially look at the Jews. It was vain labor. The Jews lived trying not to break a single one of the laws, but they labored in vain such that their future generations were completely ruined. For dozens of times, saying that they were going to live rightly, they made doctrines and revised them during the Middle Ages. All of that was vain labor.
2. Almost all successful people end up simply eating their meals and dying
   There is one more thing I discovered. “Ah, these people who say they have succeeded almost all end up merely eating their meals and dying.” There is an elder who greatly influenced me. From the time he was young, he lived so faithfully that he always came in first in his studies and entered Seoul National University. He was also a very upright person. So he passed the bar exam at a young age, became a judge, and then, by becoming a lawyer early on, earned a lot of money. He was such a person. He lived well. But he suffered so much that, even though he was not that old, he fell ill and passed away. To the point that I thought, “How truly unfortunate.” In the end, all that is left is that he lived a little better in a slightly nicer house.
3. The age of mental illness
   And what suddenly came to be, the third thing I realized, is that we are now in the midst of such great suffering and that the age of mental illness has come. There are so many people with mental illness that it has increased to the point that you cannot distinguish who is right and who is not. Especially last year and this year, it has increased greatly. Such an age has come.

2. True success – being saved and preaching the gospel
For me, what is true success? It is that I have been saved and that I preach the gospel. That I have received the blessing of salvation and that I am in a church where I can preach the gospel. This is the greatest blessing and success. Is that not so? I prayed to God like this: I prayed that I would be able to do evangelism my entire life, and that is how even this Yeongdo came about. In the beginning, so many works arose that I was out on the road to the point that I almost could not stay in the church. Our members, our elders, all pushed me with prayer. Now, at last, in our church, in places like Seoul and Busan and other regions, many multiethnic people are gathering. You will later come to know what it means that you are raising even one multiethnic person. It is the same as saving one nation. Powerless people gathered and came to our Busan and preached the gospel, and now the gospel is going into the multiethnic people. How thankful this is.

1. Recover the strength to do this movement – firmly hold onto the covenant
   If so, today you are restoring the strength to do this movement. So you do not need any other strength; you must firmly hold onto the covenant.
2. Myself (standing in the line of world evangelization), future generations (blessed enough to do world evangelization), work (used for world evangelization)
   “As someone who has been saved, I will stand in the line of world evangelization.” Our future generations only need to be blessed to the point that they can do world evangelization. Everything else is all vain. It is enough if your work is used for world evangelization.
3. Make the 300%
   So I tell our remnants, “Right now, if you just go to work, earn money, you will not be able to do world evangelization. Right now, make your academics 300%. Did not Bill Gates make it? Make it 300%.” When he was a sophomore in college, Bill Gates made, you could say, this content as 100% software. And then he set up a 100% network all over the world. And he made another 100% thing that could carry that out, which was a company, in order to maintain it. That one person swept over the entire world. And of all things, that person is a New Age member. So he earned money to the point that it cannot even be counted. And now he is spreading the New Age movement all over the world.

3. Myself, future generations, and the field evangelized – Enjoy the power of the covenant today
So why must you enjoy this blessing of evangelization? In the United States, the number of people with mental illness has doubled. Why is that? They are just living and then they lose their minds. They lose their mental state. So now we are in a situation where psychiatrists are in charge at every school. Because things have developed so much, people stare at that, are amazed at it, and we have come to a situation where they cannot see the spiritual problem. Therefore, it is enough if you simply hold onto this true blessing, the covenant. What was done first? I evangelized myself. And I evangelized the future generations. I evangelized the field. Even now you can receive answers exactly like this.

1. Joseph, who from the beginning firmly held onto the covenant of world evangelization (who knew that hardship was the way of world evangelization), and Jacob, who treasured those words in his heart (fulfillment of the covenant)
   Joseph from the very beginning held onto the covenant of world evangelization. He went as a slave, but it was all right. This is the blessing you must receive. To what extent did he hold onto the covenant? To the extent that it appeared in his dreams. If you misunderstand, you might say, “Joseph had a dream, but why did he go around talking about that dream?” But the dream was given like that. Because he held onto the covenant. If your heart is very impatient, you dream of war. When you are very frustrated in your heart, you dream of being pressed down or chased. Joseph was praying, received the strength of prayer, and held onto the covenant of world evangelization, and from then on, it began to appear even in his dreams and the doors began to open. He went as a slave but became a world leader. So what is the strength you must now enjoy? When Joseph was dragged away as a slave, he would have been taken without even being able to wash his face. Did he have somewhere he wanted to be sold to? No. He had to go wherever the one who bought him sold him to. But at the end, Joseph confessed. He confessed that this was the way of world evangelization. That God had sent him. You must enjoy this strength today. Today, all our remnants throughout the nation, and you as well, do you have difficulties? That is the most blessed path. “Is that even possible?” It is possible. Joseph could not have met the official unless he was falsely accused. The prison he went into was the place where officials came, where political prisoners came. So God guided him onto the path by which he could meet the official. One day, God pressed the heart of Pharaoh and made him meet Joseph. In front of his brothers he confessed, “You sold me,” he did not say it like that. He said, “It was not you who sold me.” I have always been curious about this: when Joseph disappeared, did Jacob think he was still alive or that he was dead? I have not yet found an answer, and I will have to ask in heaven, but Jacob was a person of prayer. Right? I said, “Jacob treasured Joseph’s words in his heart.” I believe that there were many prayers. That covenant will absolutely be fulfilled. This is the strength you must hold onto today. That covenant will be fulfilled. How do you think he felt when he heard the news that Joseph was alive? And how do you think he felt when he heard that he was the governor? And that he was the governor of Egypt, which was moving the world? I believe that Joseph and Jacob knew this power of the covenant.

※ Firmly hold onto the covenant that exists in your circumstances. It is the greatest strength.
In any situation, do not be discouraged, but firmly hold onto the covenant that exists for you, your future generations, and your circumstances. It is the greatest strength.

2. The mother who planted in Moses, who had gone as an adopted child, the covenant that he would become a world leader – It will absolutely be answered
   God planted in Moses, who went as an adopted child, from his childhood, the fact that he would become a world leader. Many incidents took place. It was all right. His mother had already planted it when he was young. They thought the answer had not come. Because so much time passed. But that is not so. It will absolutely be answered. It is because of that that we are worshiping here, holding onto the covenant.
3. The seven remnants and their parents, whose eyes were different – In the midst of suffering, God had prepared everything
   The seven remnants and their parents went through countless sufferings. But their way of seeing was different. When Moses was fleeing in Midian, at that time God was preparing everything for Moses. Also, when David was running away, fleeing, fleeing from death, God was preparing everything. That you, having this gospel, are used to save other people – this is the greatest success and the greatest blessing.

▣ Main Message_ Evangelization
Now then, we read the main passage today, and since you have simply received the answer, what does it mean that something was evangelized? What does it mean that something was done?

1. Evangelizing the past – The past as the platform of blessing, the message for the age (Romans 16:25, the blessing hidden for ages)
We read Romans 16:25 where it says that He promised to give what had been kept hidden since long ages past. In simple terms, it means that the past was completely evangelized. This is important. “But the past has already gone by, has it not?” It has not. The past has not gone by. The mother was tormented her whole life, became a shaman, and died. But her daughter was living abroad, and what had come upon the mother also came upon her. It has not ended. It says that when you worship idols, disasters go down to the third and fourth generation. Is that not so?

1. Paul, who had gone with an incredible background to kill those who believed in Jesus, met Christ
   What kind of person was Paul? Shall we take a look at Paul’s past? At that time, there were three world-famous cities of literature. Alexandria, Athens, and Tarsus of Cilicia. These three were world-famous cities of literature. Paul was born there. And there was a leader of the age, whom all the Jews respected. It was Gamaliel. Paul was a disciple under Gamaliel. In today’s terms, he was a member of the Sanhedrin council, a position higher than a member of parliament. He had the highest title in Israel, the title of Pharisee. He was a Roman citizen of the empire that ruled the world at that time. And he was a scholar of the law. Among the tribes, he was from the highest tribe, the tribe of Benjamin. You know Benjamin, right? He was the son of Jacob. Joseph’s younger brother. Rachel died giving birth to Benjamin. And Jacob, whose name is Israel, designated the tribe of Benjamin as the highest tribe. That is why the first king, Saul, came from the tribe of Benjamin. So Paul’s tribe was also Benjamin. This man went to kill those who believed in Jesus and met Christ. This blessing had been hidden since long ages past. You must restore thanksgiving. It means that the blessing hidden since long ages past has been given to you.
2. Paul, who received the answer to his spiritual problem that had not been solved even though he prayed – The great door of world evangelization began to open
   Paul did everything and had everything, but his spiritual problem was not solved. So later he confessed. He said that because of this he had prayed three times, but that God had told him that He would not remove it. Whether He removes it or not does not matter. He received the answer. He came to know that this was the answer by which God, who wanted to save the world, would use him. Because he received the answer to his spiritual problem, from this point on the great door of world evangelization began to open for Paul.
3. The past needs the power of the gospel – Paul’s confession
   We must evangelize the past. Is that not so? The past needs the power of the gospel. So Paul confessed like this.
   (1) He regards what he once boasted of as loss and as rubbish – The change into an evangelist
   “I now consider everything I once boasted of as loss.” He said this. He also said, “What I boasted of, I consider rubbish.” To that extent he overturned the problems regarding the past. And then he changed into an evangelist. What greater blessing is there than the time in which he changed into an evangelist and changed the world? He was transformed into an evangelist. So God spoke directly to Ananias, saying, “He is my chosen instrument to carry my name before Israel and before kings and before the Gentiles.”

(2) He presses on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of him
Even though he was old, Paul confessed like this: “I have not yet taken hold of it. I have not accomplished anything.” Even though he had done much evangelism. “I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.”

(3) He presses on to win the prize for which God has called him heavenward
“I press on to win the prize of the upward call of God.”

(4) The name that brings all things into submission
And he also said, “He has given us the name by which all things are brought into submission.”

※ My past is the platform of blessing; through the past, hold onto the message for the age.
Today you must firmly hold onto the covenant. All of my past is the platform of blessing. “Why is there a person with a disability in our family?” It means, “Hold onto the message for the age.” Is that not so? It is not something to be discouraged about. Hold onto the message for the age. It means, “Hold onto the message for the world.”

2. Evangelizing today (the answer for a hundred years, a thousand years) – Do not remain on the side of problems, conflicts, and crises, but find the answer
Second, we must evangelize the present, today. Then answers for a hundred years and a thousand years will come. Even today, as you worship and pray, we have many problems, conflicts, and crises, is that not so? We must not remain on that side. We must find the answer.

1. The answer – It is to give something better (today’s blessing, strength)
   What is the answer? It is very simple. God wants to give you something better. Do not be discouraged. God wants to give something better to you. That is today’s blessing and strength.
2. Find Only, Uniqueness, and Re-creation – What others cannot give but I receive
   And when you remain in this, what comes out? What others cannot give but I receive comes out. Is that not so? Others cannot give it. God has given me what even my parents cannot give me. Through that difficulty you must nurture strength. You must discover it. What is that? It is Only, Uniqueness, and Re-creation. This is today’s blessing. In any case, do not be shaken and find Only, Uniqueness, and Re-creation. I tell our young adults and remnants. Find it boldly. Because it surely exists. Is that not so? If there is a lock, there is a key. You must find the key. If there is a problem, there is an answer. You must find it. Do not be shaken by listening to the words of many people; find the answer.
3. Find With, Immanuel, and Oneness – Finding the reason why God is with me
   There is one more thing. You must show the evidence that God is with you. Is that not so? “But I am going through hardship. Is God with me?” He is with you. You must find the reason. Also, a good answer has come. If God has given you a good answer, does that mean He has also given you hardship? You must find With, Immanuel, and Oneness. This is what is hidden. Evangelize today.

3. Evangelizing the future – What will remain forever (Romans 16:27)
Do not worry, and what is the third? Evangelize the future, that which will remain forever.

1. Prayer 300% – 24·25·eternity; what has entered your heart, thoughts, brain, and soul and is connected to the throne will absolutely be answered
   Remnants only need to invest five minutes a day. Then it will change into 24. Then 25 will become visible. The throne. Is that not so? What is eternal will become visible. Just from praying a little. What enters your heart, your thoughts, your brain, what enters into your soul and is connected to the throne will absolutely be answered. This is what we call prayer 300%. Remnants, prepare. You must prepare now. Remnants prepare for the future, but you must prepare now.
2. Work 300% – Professionalism, field-ness, future-ness
   And what is it? Whatever your work is, whether you do a part-time job or something else, it does not matter. You must do it 300%. Professionalism, field-ness, future-ness. You must have these.
3. Evangelism and missions 300% – Finding the people God has prepared, finding them among TCKs and CCKs
   And what is it? Evangelizing the future is nothing else. You must see your evangelism and your missions as 300%. Why is it 300%? Because you are finding the people God has prepared. That is evangelism 300%. There are about seven such words. There are many in the Bible. And among the discarded ones, there are figures among the TCKs and CCKs. Finding them is missions 300%. Because everything is contained in that. So right now you are doing an enormous work. You just do not know it. It is not even that great a thing. That is not so. It is enormous. This year many multiethnic people are coming, and we are now praying about what the way will be by which these multiethnic people can come in the future. Our people of work are thinking, “How about building factories in places like Vanuatu and such nations?” There are many resources. Because they have not been able to develop them, there are many. So that can be the way by which we can save the 5000 tribes. We are in the midst of prayer. So prepare your work, your evangelism, your prayer, and your missions as 300%, remnants. It says that this is what He has kept hidden and will give.

▣ Conclusion_ Answers to prayer

1. The answer that comes as you do it
   So, to conclude, there are answers to prayer that you receive just as you pray.
2. The answer that comes even though you did not pray – When you are in the line of the gospel and evangelization
   There are also some answers that come even though you did not pray for them. What is that? If you are in the line of the gospel and evangelization, answers come even while you are still. Look at North Korea. They die of hunger even though they have done nothing wrong. Because they stood in the wrong line. It is not as if they were born because they wanted to be born there. I pray for North Korea every day. When I thought about it, I realized that in the past I did not pray for North Korea. Since the North Korea Missions Conference, I have prayed continuously. No matter how great I am, if I follow a murderer, I become a murderer. Is that not so? No matter how lacking I am, if I follow the one who saves people, I become a person who saves people. Therefore, just by standing in the line of the gospel, God answers.
3. The greater answer – The answer God has kept hidden and then gives
   There is an even greater answer. It appears in the main passage today. “God has kept it hidden and then gives it.”

1. The reason He hides it – Because it is precious, because it cannot be given to just anyone
   Why does He hide it? You hide what is very precious. And why else does He hide it? Because He cannot give it to just anyone; He has kept it hidden. And He is saying that He will give it.
2. The seven remnants who gave thanks the most (Jeremiah 33:3, Isaiah 43:18–20) – Thanksgiving changes the brain
   Paul made this confession today. “What had been kept hidden for ages past and will remain forever, He has now given to me.” So the person who used the word “thanksgiving” the most was Paul. He suffered the most, but he used the word “thanksgiving” the most. “Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know. Do not remember the former things. I will do a new thing.” Later in that passage, it says, “A way will be made in the wilderness and rivers will flow in the desert.” This is what God promised. “Even the wild animals will honor God.” So the representative figures who suffered the most, David and the seven remnants, all suffered. Wherever they went, they gave thanks. This word “thanksgiving,” if you do it sincerely, completely changes your brain. Truly it does. There are those who sincerely give much thanks. Those people receive more and more blessings as the days go by. Even among general unbelievers, there are those who have no thanksgiving. There are people who are always complaining, always irritated. There are such people. But even though they are not believers, there are people who are always thankful. These people keep receiving blessings.
3. We who have received the gospel always seek God’s plan, and that is why we give thanks
   So, because we who have received the gospel always seek God’s plan, we give thanks for that.

While you are praying throughout the entire day today, if there is any problem you have, I hope that this will be the day you gain the great strength to find the answer. For those who think their health is not so good, you must truly hold onto as a covenant what the power of the filling of the Holy Spirit is. Our elders, who always sit in the front and pray, are precious. You must pray that you will become stronger and stronger as the days go by. I bless in the name of Jesus Christ that the power of God will come upon every place that is worshiping together by this video. Especially, there will be God’s amazing plan for those multiethnic people. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, we thank You. We thank You for giving us salvation. We thank You that we, who are weak, are used in the gospel movement. There is only one thing that will remain on this earth; let us save them. Let our work be used for world evangelization. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
