Bartizan, Journey, Guidepost

2025.11.08 Scattered Disciples
The Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC to Save the 237 Nations and the 5000 Tribes (45)
– Model 39 of 7∙7∙7 –
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-8

▣ Conclusion: [Gospel-unification age]
So, how do we open the gospel-unification age?

1. Only the absolute bartizan
Not just an absolute bartizan—build only the absolute bartizan.

2. Only the absolute journey
Even within the absolute journey—walk only the absolute journey.

3. Only the absolute guidepost
Therefore, set up only the absolute guidepost.
This opens the gospel-unification age. I will give one example—what does this mean? I will give just one example: Paul. He gave up every good thing. Why? To do this. Thus, for the evangelization of Rome, Paul even abandoned what he possessed. What did he give up? The Pharisee vocation, which he esteemed most. Paul said that even the enormous value of his Roman citizenship was nothing. Yet, all those things became the absolute bartizan, the journey, and the guidepost.

Now I will conclude completely. What must we do now? You must be praying the prayer that enjoys this covenant. That is enough. You must now enter into the blessing of this prayer. A history will arise that connects into tomorrow. Let us pray.

Prayer. We thank God. We thank You for granting the North Korea Missions Conference. Let the power that the world does not know work. Let this be the time when all darkness, wars, jealousy, and envy are bound. Let all the powers of Satan that slander, curse, and attack be bound. Let murder, crime, drugs, and all such groups be bound. Open the door of blessing in North Korea. Bless us so that unification comes by the gospel. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Today’s Challenge

2025.11.08 Core
The Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (45)
Scripture Reading: Acts 2:41-47

We held our North Korea Missions Conference and seized several prayer topics. A North Korean defector is no longer a defector but a sent one. Now we must discover the outer-organization networks.

[Era of prayer-squad formation]
Therefore, not only for defectors but open an era of globalizing prayer squads for North Korea. Other mission fields have not done this—you can. Of course, those who do 24-hour prayer and those who keep set-time prayer will do this. But you must pray in a relay so that North Korea missions keeps emerging.

[Three-day weekend age of North Korea missions]
Open the three-day weekend age for North Korea missions.

[Three courtyards age of North Korea missions]
Open the three courtyards age for North Korea missions. These two (the three-day weekend age and the three courtyards age) can be carried out together. They must arise everywhere, in every place.

[Meditation age of North Korea missions] – today’s challenge
Today, open the meditation age for North Korea missions. That is precisely today’s challenge. What does this mean?

(Nephilim war)
The opposite of the meditation age is now the war against the Nephilim. Because even presidents and leaders of the whole world do not know of this. Since all religions are producing Nephilim, they do not know. Therefore, we are in a war with the Nephilim. If you do not understand what the “meditation age” means, you will lose to the “mindfulness age.” If you cannot open the meditation age, you cannot revive the church. Thus there are four great blessings, and the conclusion is the fifth: prayer.

▣ Conclusion_ [Gospel-unification age]
Let us open the gospel-unification age. If unification comes by war, it will be disastrous. If it comes by ideology, it will be disastrous. It must be by the gospel. Because North Korea missions is so important, beginning with yesterday (Friday) the messages have been flowing continuously.

▣ Introduction_ flow of the age
Today, to open this meditation age, there is something you must first know. To receive prayer answers, look at the flow of the age. It is important.

▣ Main_ flow to find
In today’s main message there is a flow we must find.

▣ Conclusion_ flow to change
And near the conclusion there is a flow to change. You must surely know this.

▣ Introduction: Flow of the age
But how do we know the flow of the age? It seems hard to grasp. Yet it is not difficult. A war broke out in our nation. It was an ideological war, a war of ideas. It was a war of hegemons. Therefore it was entirely Satan’s play. Since I grew up in that, I quickly saw the flow of the age. It was the fight of the extreme left and extreme right. Thus the fight between communism and capitalism. It will continue.

If we do not do things properly by the gospel, it will be a disaster. First of all, we will not receive answers. The flow of the age is not hard. How are you living right now? That is the flow of the age.

No coincidence × – inevitability
At such times you see what is not coincidence but inevitability. I will give several examples.

1. Four people – Joseph
There were four people who changed Joseph’s life. These four changed Joseph. It was inevitable. He met a man named Potiphar—you know this. He met Potiphar’s wife, who put him into prison. He met a minister in the prison. Later he met the king. Was this coincidence or inevitability? Inevitability. Right? You must be able to see this. We commonly say “by chance,” and such things. It is inevitability. To the one who sees this, God surely gives answers that change the age. God does not open the door to the 5,000 tribes for just anyone. You are now opening the door to the 5,000 tribes. Among them, North Korea is now in a very crucial situation.

2. Jochebed and the princess
Jochebed—Moses’ mother. The meeting of Jochebed and the princess. Not a coincidence. It was an inevitable meeting seen through the flow of the age. Look at the Scripture.

3. Samuel + David
The meeting of Samuel and David. It was an epochal meeting. You must first see this blessing. Thus, as you see it, you are confirming the Bible now.

4. Elijah, Elisha, and Obadiah
Elijah and Elisha—and in the background, Obadiah, a church leader. What was their characteristic? They saw the flow of the age. You must see the flow of the age now. Why? The Nephilim age is coming. We cannot wage a physical war, but we must wage the Nephilim war. Therefore, completely open the meditation age. Open a North Korea missions meditation team. This is not a simple prayer-squad; great teams will be formed.

5. Paul + Romans 16
The meeting of Paul and the people of Romans 16. You must see this flow.

▣ Main: Flow to find
Then what flow must we discover? It is important.

1. Flow of the Word – challenge (Acts 2:42)
Find the flow of the Word and challenge. You must clearly see the flow of the Word and challenge it. Acts 2:42. Following the apostles’ teaching. Devoting themselves wholly to prayer. Therefore it is extremely important that you discover the flow of the Word.
Now, you have already seen the flow of the age. There are many pastors who have defected from the North—you have seen the flow of the age. It must be done. North Korea must someday be liberated. Someday it must become a good nation. Right? Someday it must become a blessed nation. The beginning of that flow is your beginning. You will receive this (introduction) answer. Only, in order not to lose it, there is something to find.

2. Flow of prayer – challenge (Acts 2:42)
Then how do we carry out the flow of prayer and its challenge? It is the same. Following the apostles’ teaching. The second important thing is “fellowship.” Your meetings are important—fellowship. “Breaking bread”—this means to enjoy the blessing of salvation always, daily. “They devoted themselves” to prayer—entirely, wholeheartedly.

3. Flow of evangelism (Acts 2:41)
Even now, something more important than merely going out to evangelize is to find the flow of evangelism. When they found the flow of evangelism, things like miracles happened. Though it was so opposed, three thousand disciples arose. This is what you must discover.

4. Flow of the field (Acts 2:46–47)
You will go to the field. Then how do you take on the flow and challenge of the field? The Scripture gives it—Acts 2:46–47. In the field you see the fulfillment of the Word you have seized—regarding North Korea missions.

5. Flow of the world (Acts 2:9–11)
You have seen the flow of the world—Acts 2:9–11. You must see these five.

▣ Conclusion: Flow to change
From this point, in order truly to receive answers, a history of changing the flow occurs.

1. Not my standard ×
When you look at the flow of the Word, you must not see it by your standard. Then you will not see the flow of the Word.

Not my position ×
When you look at the flow of prayer, you must not see it by your position. This is what must be changed.

Not my level ×
When you look at the flow of evangelism, you cannot evangelize by your level. It is by God’s level. By my level, I cannot evangelize North Korea—this is what it means.

Not my situation ×
If you hold to your personal situation, you will never be able to save the field.
If you only cross over this, the works will arise. Remnants, if it seems you have faced something difficult, just cross over that and the works will arise. When you go to the field many conflicts come—cross over them and the works will arise. This becomes the history of changing the flow.
“Ah, I have not received any answer.” It is okay. Wait and see. Surely the works will arise.

Not my ability ×
You cannot change the world by your ability. Therefore, “you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you.” It was clearly stated.

2. What descends from above (the throne)
How do the works arise? God’s power descends from above. Hold to this. Hold to what descends from above. This is what is called the power of the throne.

3. Farther (the kingdom)
Rather, your answer lies farther away. Hold to that. When you hold to what lies farther away, the kingdom of God comes. It cannot be done by my strength.

4. The opposite side (the work)
Rather, God’s astonishing blessing lies on the side opposite of what you are seeing. In Asia they thought the door had closed, but from the opposite side came “Go over to Macedonia.” At that time the work of the kingdom of God arose.

Seize the covenant for tomorrow, and seize it now. Even briefly, while you go after hearing today’s message, seize the covenant and pray.

300% Preparation for the Three Courtyards

2025.11.08 Remnant and TCK Study of Evangelism
The Evangelist’s Life and the Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (45)
– Model 39 of the 3 Courtyards –
Scripture Reading: Acts 13:1-4

Studies – Work – Evangelism – The 3 Courtyards – RTS, RGS, RLS (North Korea internship)

Our Remnants must have a standard. What is the standard by which Remnants study? Also, as you go forward to do work (industry), what is that standard? And for evangelism, by what actual standard should you evangelize? The standard here is the 3 courtyards. You must prepare your competence to the level of carrying out the 3 courtyards. Remnants must have something they can come and learn from you—if that is absent, it means there is no courtyard. Therefore pastors must utilize every organization entirely for the 3 courtyards and for the three-day weekend age. If so, we presently have important schools here: RTS, RGS, and RLS. These schools must, of course, study, but in essence they must become places of internship. You must discover programs so that they can become North Korea Remnant internship sites. Try it at RTS, RGS, and RLS. There are those who escaped from North Korea who are now raising their children. Though they may be doing something in the church, RTS or RLS should formally invite them, and in this way it must become an internship. The goal of that internship is this.

If this is not done and they are sent out, they cannot succeed. It is important to consider what our Remnants will do going forward; however, if you do not do this, it will not connect to the next step. Therefore you will, if thinking wrongly, end up becoming anxious in your mind: “What should I do going forward?” Even if that is not entirely bad, for now, for example, what did Joseph do? Nothing else—he cleaned after being taken as a slave. That was not, in fact, Joseph’s major. It was not something he had discovered that he should do. He did not search it out; it was made for him. At such a time there is the best method: he did the best possible cleaning. He made cleaning 300%. That was the end of it. God then opened the next doors and led him forward. What is the key to North Korea missions? In practice, making the 300% is much easier. Put simply, when I go out to an evangelism camp, I go out only when the 300% is prepared. You go around by zeal, but I cannot because I would be ashamed. You go without shame and boldly, but I cannot. Who was the person I respected most on earth? The one selling goods on the bus. Why? Because I absolutely cannot do that. When I watch them, I think, “If someone asked me to run for parliament, I could do it—why not?” But if someone told me to sell wallets on the bus—I cannot. I cannot do that sort of evangelism. Precisely 300%. Then works inevitably arise. But why do we miss this? It is regrettable.

Therefore the Remnants must make this preparation. Why? Because someone must do it no matter what. What? The courtyard of the Gentiles. Who does it matters.

1. The courtyard of the Gentiles
If someone without the gospel attempts the courtyard of the Gentiles, they suffer constantly. Because it is hard, they think, “If I do this, it will make money.” Someone without the gospel operates a mission home—because there is some income. One day its doors will close.

2. The courtyard of healing
To what level must the Remnants succeed? To the level of creating this that heals the world.

3. The courtyard of Remnants (RT)
You must save the posterity. You must succeed to at least this degree. From one angle this is conscience—conscience. In another sense it is also a commission, but it is a basic conscience. If we cannot save posterity, cannot help the sick, and cannot save the Gentiles, then we have lost everything. This is for two reasons: either it is not the gospel, or this has not been prepared. The gospel itself is 300%, because it has finished my past, today, and future. This is the gospel. Jesus said this. “It is finished.” He called them to Mt Olive—“It is finished” was spoken on Mt Calvary, and then on Mt Olive He spoke for forty days about the kingdom of God. The part you must take care with is the beginning.

1. The courtyard of the Gentiles

1) 13:1–4 Guidance of the Holy Spirit
Wait until the guidance of the Holy Spirit arises. Many people rush ahead when it has not arisen yet. This is what grieves the Holy Spirit. That is Ephesians 4:30. Or when the work of the Spirit has arisen and one does not move, that is “Do not quench the Spirit.” That is 1 Thessalonians 5:19. Until this becomes visible, do not move. Then you will unconditionally succeed.

2) 16:6–10 Vision
Then there are times when the way is suddenly blocked. At such times people err again. They do something else—do other things—because it is not working. Or they give up. No. You must wait for the accurate covenant. “In a vision…” This means he waited while praying. How good is that? If you have no money, do not spend money—pray. If you are sick, lie down and pray. Being sick means: do not go around—so lie down and pray. And then “to Macedonia”—this changed the age. If you receive the guidance of the Holy Spirit when you face difficulties, you will change the age. There is no need to be discouraged. There is no need to “take courage” either. Just be led.

3) 19:1–8 (Me)
This is very important. It is the moment when the covenant message given on Mt Olive and what took place in Mark’s upper room was fulfilled in Paul. He “spoke boldly about the kingdom of God.” But the kingdom of God, the throne—these are terms the unbeliever cannot understand. Yet if you cannot understand these terms, you cannot do world evangelization. You cannot see the third and fourth worlds.

2. The courtyard of healing

1) Bind the darkness
First, bind the darkness.

2) Authority
And, with authority, cast out demons.

3) The power of the Word (three months – two years)
By the power of the Word, works of healing the incurable arise. This is the field of the courtyard of healing. He did this for three months, and then for two years he carried out the Word movement, and works arose.

3. The courtyard of Remnants (RT)
Therefore, what is most important for the Remnants?

1) The perfection of Christ
The perfection of Christ. That is settled. This is what Remnants must discover.

2) The perfection of worship and prayer
The perfection of worship and prayer. Tomorrow—no, now—enjoy it now. When you say “Amen” now, it is imprinted in your brain. The answer comes a little later. If you entertain strange thoughts now, that is what gets imprinted. If you are blank during worship—that gets imprinted. If the Word does not enter you at all during worship—something else gets imprinted. You must surely know this.

3) The perfection of answers
How does God answer? It says he “spoke boldly about the kingdom of God.” The perfection of answers. You must know the three perfections. The answer is from the throne. The answer is as the kingdom of God. The fulfillment of the answer is as the work of the kingdom of God. When? Now. In your brain and soul. That connects to the throne. It descends again—as the kingdom. It is fulfilled—as the work of the kingdom. If such Remnants arise, you do not need to worry about succeeding. There are things to prepare for, but that is not “worry”; that is preparation. As we live, there are times we feel uneasy. In one sense, that is not anxiety but perceiving a crisis. But “anxious care” is a slightly different term—it means you have fallen into it. Therefore Remnants must be blessed to at least this measure. RTS, RGS, and RLS must become places of internship. Prepare that. They must become places of internship. Therefore, if you think it is difficult, it seems difficult—but it is not necessarily so. Even within your small reality, great answers are contained. Today and tomorrow, may you completely enjoy the blessing of the three-day weekend age in the name of Jesus Christ. Let us pray.

Prayer. We give thanks to God. In the remaining time, by God’s working, may answers arise to save the whole world. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

300% of the 3-Day Weekend Age

2025.11.08 Business Missions
The 237 Nations and the Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (45)
– Bartizan 39 of the 3-day Weekend Age –
Scripture Reading: Acts 18:1-4

Yesterday we held the 1st North Korea Missions Conference. It has not ended—it is just beginning. Accordingly, what we must confirm in today’s message is: Open the three-day weekend age of North Korea missions.

「The Three-Day Weekend Age Of North Korea Missions」
You must firmly hold to this as the covenant. First, we should recognize that there are unbelievers or new believers, and in the church there are church leaders and pastors. Though each is different, they share one common point. The common point is that we cannot but judge based on what we know. Whether unbeliever or believer, this is common. Therefore, if you can go beyond this, it is easy to make 300% in every field. In truth, there is more that we do not see than what we see, and there is more that we do not know than what we know. For this reason, one industry person appeared who gave the answer to this.

(Acts 18:1–4)
This person appeared. He played the leading role in the three-day weekend age. The evidence is that every Sabbath he entered the synagogue. Now, something must also open as the three-day weekend age centered on North Korea missions for us. The characteristic of this couple—Priscilla and Aquila—was:

▣ Introduction: Start = 300% (Acts 2:10)
Already from the start, the 300% was prepared. Thus the greatest evidence is here (Acts 2:10). Is this not a tremendous place? It is a place that allows for many thoughts. The work of Mark’s upper room arose and the multiethnic people gathered. Among them were “visitors from Rome.” All commentators commonly view them as Priscilla and Aquila. And before they met Paul, they had already received the gospel at this time. Especially Aquila was a Jew. From that perspective, what Jesus spoke of—

1. Public Ministry (Mount Calvary)
They could not have failed to know the message about His public ministry. Especially, what was the conclusion here? It was the event of Mount Calvary. This couple surely had assurance of this. Therefore, they participated in Mark’s upper room. People who make great money should go to big places to make greater money—but their coming here means they had taken hold of something tremendous.

2. Forty Days On Mt Olive

3. Mark’s Upper Room
And so they participated in Mark’s upper room. These three are extremely important: Mount Calvary, Mt Olive, and Mark’s upper room are crucial matters that you must by no means be ignorant of. Therefore, if you are to succeed going forward, what you know is of course necessary, but you must go beyond that and come forth from here. There are necessarily important—

1) Three Feasts (always – daily)
“When the day of Pentecost had fully come”—this is an experience that contains the three feasts. The strength of the Jews was that they kept the three feasts—and their weakness was also that they kept the three feasts. But for us, like Priscilla and Aquila, how must we keep the three feasts? Always, daily. This is the key. We keep the feasts to inform the posterity of this fact and to commemorate it; it is not to do it only then. Therefore, the reason the feasts are important is not the event itself but enjoying this. You must bear in mind that, for you, the blessings of the three feasts are appearing daily. They were those who enjoyed this. In fact, it is finished.

2) 237 – 5000
What is contained in this place (Acts 2:10)? It contains this: a great door prepared to penetrate the 237 nations and the 5,000 tribes. When they received the answer here, what came out?

3) Future (Acts 2:17–18)
They saw the future. Is not seeing the future the most important? This is Acts 2:17–18. And that is not all. Two things important for us remain.

4) Worship (Acts 2:42)
If you are truly enjoying this answer, there is an answer that will come to you tomorrow. What is that? It is to succeed in worship. Most church leaders and industry people do not succeed in worship. Among the matters of succeeding in worship, there is yet another remaining.

5) Six Days (Acts 2:46–47)
Worship must influence the six days. Then you have given worship well. This is that part. Day by day in the temple, and day by day from house to house, works arose. Thus it could not but become the three courtyards. We confirmed many covenants this time; do not lose hold of the North Korea missions message. The North Korean defectors are those who have been commissioned, and the outer organizations are extremely important. But to do this, where must we start? Start with prayer. Let there be not even a single day without the word “North Korea missions.” That is why we say, “Relay it.” Otherwise, the North Korea Missions Conference will become like merely keeping a feast. This must be connected every day. And then where do we concentrate? We concentrate on the three-day weekend age.

▣ Main Message: Coming Answers (Answers God Will Give)
Thus, there are answers that come at this time. What does this mean? It means there are answers that God will give.

1. Acts 18:1–4 [Me – 300%]
This was Acts 18:1–4. It is the 300% concerning me. This is very important. It will come.

2. Acts 18:24–28 [RT – 300%]
What is next? Acts 18:24–28. What is this? It is the Remnant’s 300%. It cannot but come—and this is the three-day weekend age.

3. 1 Corinthians 16:19 [Field regional church that revives the church]
This does not end there; we must revive the field. So, what important matter appears here if we look at one Scripture? This (1 Corinthians 16:19) is very important. “Priscilla and the church that is in their house.” The important meaning here is: a field regional church that revives the church. The church leaders must know how to make this. This will be taught in the Church Leader Graduate School lecture—but if someone appears who knows how to establish a proper regional church, then works will inevitably arise. If you do not know this, a few problems come. If you are running a church and you make another regional church as “another church of mine,” it must not turn into that shape. While you are serving your church, you make a regional church that supports that church. Right? People cannot do this. Why? Because all center on revealing themselves; thus finances and manpower are all wasted. They cannot evangelize. You need at least this level of IQ, but people do not have this IQ because of their greed. If I or you have a wrong motive, one’s IQ drops about 30 points. Even if your IQ were 100, it drops to 70. Do you know the IQ of a fish? It is 60 to 70.

So, what did I do in the past? When I entered a meeting (Darakbang), people kept preparing food. “Don’t do it. Give offering—to the church.” Then, when offering was collected, I carried envelopes and a stapler in my bag. I put it in as-is and stapled it. Through the members present, we offered it to the church. Because people cannot escape the “me” of Genesis 3, they cannot see the true answer. The couple who saw this was Priscilla and Aquila. One such person is of incalculable importance. Here it is: “Priscilla and the church in their house.” Why is this phrase important? Because the Corinthian church was continually fighting. At that time, Priscilla and Aquila did only the work of evangelism. You must surely remember this.

1 – 1) Prayer (meetings)
Prayer is included here.

2) Work
There appears their industry, their work. In prayer they met Paul.

3) Future
Thus, a tremendous future began to be shown to them. These are the answers that will come.

2 – 1) Academic background
At last they met a very outstanding person—Apollos—who had high learning.

2) Water baptism
Here two matters are mentioned: water baptism and

3) Spirit baptism
Spirit baptism. Water baptism is important. As the confession marking salvation, baptism is important. But more important is Spirit baptism. That is, they conveyed what took place in Mark’s upper room. You must surely remember this.

3 – 1) Corinth
So what result came? Because of this one couple, the work of reviving Corinth.

2) Region
And because they had established such a house-church, the region came to life.

3) Romans 16:3–4
And it did not end there. They participated in the evangelization of Rome. How important is this! Church leaders and industry people, you know that you are important, correct? Then you must receive important answers.

▣ Conclusion_ Ongoing
What result comes, then? This work is still ongoing. These answers are still ongoing. This is important. If your ministry contains the correct covenant, it will continue forever and ever. I will speak of it later, but our RGS and RLS, together with RTS, are three extremely important schools. You must know what time it is now—what you are to make.

1. Footprints
The answers they received became footprints.

2. Bartizan (journey, guidepost)
The answers they received became a bartizan. The answers of this bartizan go forth as the journey and the guidepost.

3. Watchman
Therefore, set up watchmen here and there. This is the end. Set up watchmen who revive the church. If you are not careful, you will harm the church. Set up watchmen who revive the church.

Many who are active do many activities that do not help the church. If only one who has truly opened these eyes appears, all will live. I bless that this blessing will come upon industry people nationwide and worldwide—and especially upon our North Korea missions—in the name of Jesus Christ.

Prayer. May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, King of kings, and the love of God, and the working of the Holy Spirit be with all industry people, with the church leaders holding to today’s message nationwide and worldwide, with the Remnants, and with those commissioned for North Korea missions, from now to eternity, always. Amen.

Your Greatest Enemy: Unbelief

Matthew 17:14-20. When they came to the crowd, a man approached Jesus and knelt before him. ¹⁵“Lord, have mercy on my son,” he said. “He has seizures and is suffering greatly. He often falls into the fire or into the water. ¹⁶I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him.”

¹⁷“You unbelieving and perverse generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.” ¹⁸Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of the boy, and he was healed at that moment.

¹⁹Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”

²⁰He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

The greatest obstacle to the guidance of the Holy Spirit is unbelief. This is the very sin that prevents the people of God from experiencing His power and presence. Scripture declares, “Everything that does not come from faith is sin” (Romans 14:23).

When we refuse to believe in the presence of God and His Word, it becomes impossible to follow the leading of the Holy Spirit. In today’s passage, Jesus rebuked His disciples not for their lack of compassion or effort but for their lack of faith. Their failure to cast out the demon was not due to inexperience but to unbelief.

Jesus’ words were strong: “You unbelieving and perverse generation.” The problem was not the demon’s power but the disciples’ hearts. They had forgotten who was with them. They had seen Jesus calm storms, heal the sick, and raise the dead, yet they failed to believe in the power of His name in that moment.

When unbelief takes hold, spiritual sight fades. The world begins to seem larger than God. Doubt whispers louder than the Word. And like Peter on the stormy sea, we begin to sink when we take our eyes off Christ (Matthew 14:29–30).

Without faith, it is impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6). Without faith, it is impossible to overcome the world (1 John 5:4–5). Without faith, it is impossible to see the work of God (Mark 9:14–29).

Even those who have seen great answers to prayer can still fall into unbelief. Peter himself confessed, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God” (Matthew 16:16), yet shortly afterward he rebuked Jesus, saying, “Never, Lord! This shall never happen to you!” (Matthew 16:22). How quickly faith can turn into fear when we rely on human understanding and “do not have in mind the concerns of God, but merely human concerns” (Matthew 16:23).

That is why we must continue to hear and confirm the Word of faith. But “faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ” (Romans 10:17). True faith is not emotional confidence but spiritual conviction grounded in the Word.

When you believe that Jesus is your True King, you will know that no one can touch you, not even the “evil one” (1 John 5:18). Your King reigns over all powers and authorities, holding you securely in His hand. No one can snatch you from the Father’s grip (John 10:28–29). The devil’s accusations lose their power because your King has already declared you righteous and victorious (Revelation 12:10-12).

When you believe that Jesus is your True Priest, you will know that His blood has already cleansed you from all sin. You are no longer condemned but seated with Christ in the heavenly realms (Ephesians 2:6). Your past failures no longer define you. Your guilt and shame have been nailed to the cross. “It is finished” (John 19:30).

So, do not depend on your feelings. Cling to the cross. Fix your eyes on Jesus, your True Priest, and you will not grow weary or lose heart (Hebrews 12:3). When guilt rises, remember that He lives in you, interceding for you day and night (Romans 8:34).

When you believe that Jesus is your True Prophet, you will know that peace with God has been restored (Romans 5:1). You will no longer fear judgment, for you have already crossed from death to life (John 5:24). The True Prophet has opened a new and living way to the Father (Hebrews 10:20). Stop striving through religion and start resting in His finished work.

Jesus is not looking for gigantic faith. A mustard seed is small, but when planted, it grows and bears fruit. Even the smallest faith in the Triune God moves mountains. The power is not in the size of our faith but in the object of our faith—Jesus Christ, the Son of the living God.

So, stop listening to the voice of doubt and dwelling on it. Stop measuring your faith by feelings or circumstances. Simply trust the Word and declare that Christ is enough, and He will do what only He can do. The more you trust in Him and His Word, the more you will be able to entrust everything to Him.

Yet, when you find yourself struggling with unbelief, like the father of the boy possessed by an impure spirit, cry out to your Father, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!” (Mark 9:24).

Prayer. Lord Jesus, thank You for walking with me through Your Spirit. I confess my unbelief and ask You to strengthen my faith. Help me to trust in Your power, not in my own ability. Let my faith, though small, rest fully in You—the True King, the True Priest, and the True Prophet. May Your Spirit guide me to live each day by faith, not by sight. In Your precious name, Amen.

Economy of Light

Prayer Journal: November 7, 2025
12.~13. Nov. 2024 The 8th Asia Businessperson’s Conference
Theme: “Restoration of the 3 Economies”, Lecture 1
Scripture Reading: Acts 18:1-4

Three lectures will still go out this time. You should take notes, but you must completely digest them within your life. Especially now, this is the industry conference. You must surely restore the “three kinds of economy.” “How can we do that?” Also, here are our scattered disciples—important disciples who are facing great hardships in the field. “How did the Early Church accomplish world evangelization amid those difficulties?” Among you are also Remnants. “What must Remnants prepare in advance?” That is this lecture. “What should our young adults and many others do before they go out into the world?” There will also be some who say, “My body, my health is not good.” Do not worry; I hope you resolve it at this time. There will also be those who struggle because of spiritual problems, and you will meet such people. What answer should you give? “I possess nothing right now—what should I do?” Such people will also be present. This must become the timetable in which you hold to the Word and make a completely new start.

You may consider that it has not yet begun. Why is that?
Peter confessed, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus gave an immense blessing: “You are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church; the authority of darkness, the gates of Hades, will not overcome you.” And He said, “I give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven.” Yet He then said, “Tell no one.” We must understand this. After giving such an immense blessing, He said, “Tell no one.” What is the reason? He gathered them at Mt Olive and said, “From now on, go to the ends of the earth.” Therefore, until they were gathered at Mt Olive, it had not yet truly begun. Knowing only that “Jesus is the Christ” is enough to be saved, but it has not yet started.

Last sermon – Therefore Jesus gave a few things we must certainly reference first. He gave His final message. We must remember this. It was His last word, and He spoke of important matters.
① Bartizan 100%, Journey 100%, Guidepost 100% – He said to build the bartizan for you, and to go the journey with this bartizan. I have found the 7 bartizans and the 7 journeys. Thus, you must know these very important things in order for the church to be revived and people to be revived. He spoke of the guideposts. These three are very important. God has prepared them perfectly for you. Not 99%, but 100%. You must find this, right? And along the road you go, within the journey, He has prepared 100%. Not 99%, but 100%. And at each point He has prepared guideposts by which your industry and studies come to life—100%.
② 300% – This is called the 300% preparation. This must be prepared. If this is done, then inevitably you will succeed in industry, in evangelism, and in all things. In one sense, you know the 7 bartizans/journeys/guideposts. In another sense, these may look like something vague. A five-million-won bill is visible to the eyes, right? This may sound like some excited talk. This must be seen as substance. Faith is the substance of things hoped for; it is unseen. When this appears to you as substance, works begin.
③ Fullness of the Holy Spirit – This is what we call the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Regarding me, regarding the field, regarding the system, all the future preparation has been completed. You believe, see it, and go. “I live in a place where it is difficult to proclaim the gospel.” That is the very best timetable. It is the best timetable to find true disciples.

From this time you will begin to revive the church. Thus what arises is the “Economy of Light.” This is the first answer you must receive. What is the first answer industry people must receive? The Economy of Light. It is not at all difficult. I know with certainty what will happen going forward. From now on, only the disciples who have obtained this answer will remain. Remnants, go out with this. You must surely remember this. As I have said many times, receiving this answer is far easier—especially before you go out into the field.

What did I prepare in university and graduate school? I prepared 100% how I would evangelize. Then, while attending university and graduate school, I entered the field every day. I verified the field. Then, what should I do going forward? I prepared the system 100%. It is truly amazing, isn’t it? When I came out like this, it became very easy. Church revival began to occur rapidly. Today Missionary Lee Won-Hee confessed it: he did nothing special, but works arose wherever he went. I was amazed. Many pastors receive ordination and yet do not know how to evangelize—does that make sense? It does not. That is why, is it not said that the best-selling books at Christian bookstores are sermon collections? Pastors do not know how to preach, so they buy many sermon collections and read them. If this answer comes out, sermons inevitably come out. What you must not worry about is that wherever you go and whomever you meet, you can give them an answer.

Why is that? Unseen to the eye, the Triune God works within you. Right? That is not all. He works with the power of the throne. What kind of power is that? At last you receive the power that surpasses the past/present/future. The five powers arise. You receive the power to overcome the prince of the power of the air. And what else? You see the future. You see CVDIP. In your industry and church, and wherever you go, you can build the three courtyards. In one sense, that is the ends of the earth. Now, what have I just spoken of? I have spoken of the 7 bartizans. They are 100%. Just pray.

Then on the road of our life, three things will inevitably be fulfilled: the Word, prayer, and evangelism, right? This road is the road of the Triune God. We go that way. It is far easier, for we go where the Word is fulfilled. From this time, the 10 mysteries begin to appear in the field. You take those along. There are 10 unshakable platforms, correct? The five assurances, the nine flows, the answer for your lifetime, you can give these. All of life is the camp of the throne. I have now spoken of the journey. It is 100%. Go this way. There is nothing to worry about. I tell the sick not to worry—if you pray this prayer, the disease must flee. Do not try to solve spiritual problems—if you keep to this, the spiritual problems will disappear.

And what else? At various points there is the most important blessing of Mount Calvary; there is the mission of Mt Olive; there is the experience of Mark’s upper room; there is the epochal turning point of the Antioch church; in Asia there is the start of receiving perfect leading by the Holy Spirit; in Macedonia, when the door was shut, there is the turning point; “You must also see Rome.” I have now spoken of the 7 guideposts. This is my prayer. If you do this, it will be done.

If so, the 300% will be prepared and will come as an answer. Then “Ah, going forward, I should do this” will rise up in you. Even when going to the evangelism field, this will come out. Truly, works arise wherever you go. “What should we do for the Sunday School?” What is this? The Sunday School children are about to graduate, but they do not know the gospel and cannot pray; begin with that. Children come to church, hear sermons, and do not receive grace. Thus, we gathered them by groups and began Bible study. Field-orientation. And what else? We made a system by which the children can move on their own. System 100%. Inevitably, works occur. Do business that way as well. From now on, Remnants, prepare this and go out.

Then, since you have heard this many times, I will say just one more thing. When I entered Yeongdo to plant a church, we had no church building and nothing at all. But we needed a place to worship, didn’t we? We needed a place for early morning prayer, didn’t we? We borrowed someone else’s factory only during the time it was empty on Sundays. Bartizan. For two weeks I held a revival meeting, opening everything for two weeks with the messages I wanted to preach. It was prepared. Then, in the Yeongdo newspaper, I sent a letter in such a way that every person in Yeongdo would see it—13 questions. And in 276 places—300 places—we simultaneously carried out the Word movement. Field-orientation. And many—no need to be especially “smart.” We raised disciples and sent them out. System. Then in less than three years, one thousand congregants gathered. Normally in Yeongdo, only 10, 20, 30 people gather. Passing 10, suddenly 3,000 disciples arose. It is true.

▣ Introduction: Light (Me – Re-creation)

Thus, industry people, when you restore the Economy of Light, then what is this light, first of all? It is the re-creation of me. This is important. God re-creates me. This must be done first. Then the light of God must come upon me. What does it mean that the light of God has come upon me?

Genesis 1:1–3; Isaiah 60:1–2; Matthew 5:13–16 – In Genesis 1:1–3, the light of creation came upon me. Right? The light of creation came upon me. In Isaiah 60:1–2, “Arise, shine,” and it says, “The glory of the LORD has risen upon you.” What is above is the light of creation; this is the light of glory. Right? This light has come upon me. At the moment of salvation, it is not “Become the light of the world,” but “You are the light of the world!”
John 1:11 – Now, this must come upon me. What did this Word say? Jesus came as the light, and because He came as the light, those who received this light were given the authority to become children of God. Do not be deceived; just form this and see. Darkness cannot overcome you. Do not listen to the voices of the fake. Darkness can never overcome you. Right?
1 Peter 2:9 – And in 1 Peter 2:9, He called us to proclaim this light—as light. This is not just some ordinary light. Even here, if there were no lights, what would happen? It would be pitch dark. But this is not this kind of light (electric light). The light of creation, the light of life, the light of glory, the light of God that eliminates darkness has come upon us.

7/7/7

If so, there is one thing you must do. It is very easy. Begin today.
① 3 Concentrations – With this bartizan, journey, and guidepost, you do the three concentrations. What are the three concentrations? Easy. When you wake up in the morning, begin this prayer. Remnants, even five minutes is fine. I pray for hours. In the morning, the moment I wake up—today I came this far for the conference. Up to here is “morning” for me. I departed around 6 a.m. to come to today’s conference. So from the time I woke up until 6, that is “morning” for me. During that time I continuously do this prayer. How do I do it? I say this for the sick among you and those with spiritual problems. I continue with 1:1 breathing. What is 1:1? Exhale as much as you inhale. Those who have had cancer must do this unconditionally. Those who are now older must do this unconditionally. Your brain, lungs, and all muscles are collapsing. You must do it. And when I meet people—when I meet you—that is “day” for me. At that time, with what do I pray? I turn all meetings and everything into prayer. At that time I use breathing that can maintain health and strength. At night I enter into deep prayer without movement. I cannot avoid doing this. I must prepare the message, so at night I obtain the answer, and I deliver that answer the next day. You must surely do this. Do not set a rigid time to pray. That does not last long. If your eyes did not open, that means you have gone to heaven; but if your eyes open, you must get up, right? Do it then. In the morning, things that save me must take place. In the morning, I must surely gain strength. In the morning, I must restore all things. Turn everything into prayer. Do this.
② 3 Settings – If you do this, three things become set. What becomes set? A platform is made. Once the platform is made, they come to you. In a sense, even without doing an evangelism movement, they are evangelized and come. That is the true case. Platform. I did not go to find them, but they come to find me. Having watched you ordinarily, when they have a problem, they come to you. Then you set up a watchman’s bartizan so that that person can see and come. This is made. Communication comes forth that connects God and the world. With one prayer, you enter into prayer. There are very few who truly know prayer. Prayer moves the throne. Prayer is what allows the Triune God to come upon me. When I inhale, I attach each one so that this will come upon me; when I exhale, I connect it to you, to the conference site, and to matters present. If Elder Park suddenly comes to mind at that time, I pray toward Elder Park. If Hong Kong and such places mainly come to mind, I continue. Then that itself becomes 24.
③ 3 Answers – If you do this, the answer to problems becomes visible. And there are many difficulties and conflicts, right? From there, answers for renewal come out again. A crisis is an opportunity. We call this the three answers. You must surely remember this.

If you continue this for quite a while, the system is made. This is the true answer. That a system has been made—what does it mean? It is strange for me if I do not pray. Prayer has become a system. You simply sit, right? I cannot but do long breathing; I do it long. System. This is what is made. I cannot do this work if I do not do 24-hour prayer. Before, I did it arduously; now I do it while enjoying.

▣ Main – Evangelism Movement

At this time, something very important becomes visible to you. A very important evangelism movement begins to arise. When this begins to arise—this arises. At this time, the offering you give to the church is the start of the Economy of Light. Right? If you help a robber, then what you help is robbery, right? If you help a murderer, then what you help is murder. If you help a drug addict, then the help you give is a crime. Offering at a church that does the evangelism movement is the start of the Economy of Light. The true Economy of Light must come. I will give seven Scripture passages.

Acts 2:43–45 – Acts 2:43–45. Having received grace at Mark’s upper room, those who had come from far away gave all that they had as offering. This is the start of the Economy of Light. The offering you give at your church is the start of the Economy of Light.
Acts 4:32–37 – Barnabas. He gave the land he possessed. This became an astonishing event in the Early Church. Thus, from next Lord’s Day, when you give offering, your offering is the start of the Economy of Light—if it is a church that evangelizes, right? If it is indeed a church that evangelizes, it is the Economy of Light. If I were a layperson, I would not attend a church that does not evangelize. Why go there? A waste of time and money—it will not do. Hence the world’s churches are closing. They are closing even now. Many church leaders are here; hold to the 300% covenant and save the age. They will surely come. They will surely come.
Acts 9:36–43 – Look at this. A woman named Tabitha. Her small service became the start of the Economy of Light. The work of saving Joppa took place.
Acts 10:1–45 – Acts 10. Simon the tanner—he was a leather worker. There is a record that he hosted Peter. The leather work he did was the Economy of Light. Thus he was led to meet Cornelius.
Acts 16:11–15 – Look carefully at Scripture—Acts 16:11–15. Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth. Purple cloth means there were also the rich. That is not the point. “Come into my house and stay.” This is the Economy of Light. She saved all of Philippi. Believe this.
Missionaries are now fighting a lonely battle, but they are people who evangelize. The offerings you give are the Economy of Light that appears unto eternity. Do you understand what I mean? Korea was, in the past, a beggar nation. China tormented us, Japan tormented us, Russia tormented us—our nation was such a nation. At that time missionaries came in. Light began to shine upon our nation. The foreign missionaries protected all the pains that our nation was suffering. Right? Middle-ranking church leaders in places like Australia gathered and gave offerings. They built churches in our towns that had suffered fires. Because of that, my family attended church. As time passed, I go to Australia to proclaim the gospel. Amazingly, connections are made. The missionary who had done missions in Vanuatu came to Busan, Korea, and that missionary built that church—his name was Mackenzie. Thus I also go to Vanuatu for missions. There is nothing vain. The offering you give with this answer is the start of the Economy of Light.
Acts 18:1–4 – Look at this. The couple Priscilla and Aquila met the evangelist Paul and were used for a lifetime in proclaiming the gospel. I have confirmed in documents that they became very wealthy.
Romans 16:1–27 – Romans 16:1–27—such blessings became the start of the Economy of Light.
From today begin this prayer: “Restore the Economy of Light.” Tomorrow two lectures remain: “Restore the missions economy”—we must restore it, correct? And what is the last thing we must do? “Restore the Remnant economy that saves the posterity.” This is the blessing industry people must receive. Our first point is what? Restore the Economy of Light. Start unconditionally like this. Then the door of the 300% answer opens. While you pray this prayer, something important happens to you. What takes place now among our industry people? You completely restore these three economies. We must do missions, must we not? You must restore these three economies. And many scattered disciples—when you enter into this 300% prayer, God leads you to meet disciples whom He has prepared. No matter how many of the fake ones you meet, it is useless. God-prepared disciples—today we met scattered disciples; God-prepared disciples. Through that, all the Economy of Light, missions economy, and Remnant economy begin to be restored. Especially our Remnants—you must first take this and go out into the world. While studying, prepare expertise, field-orientation, and system completely. With what? With prayer. How simple is that? People do not know prayer, but by prayer you can make everything. Especially for the sick and the many who are spiritually troubled—healing.

▣ Conclusion

hen here is the conclusion for the Economy of Light. How can we do this?

24 (Enjoy) – 24. Then inevitably 25 comes. Right? And then what? The answer of eternity comes. What is this 24? It means enjoyment. Simply do 24.
25 (Concentration) – What is 25? Once a day, concentrate on this 7/7/7. It is extremely important. The sick, do not worry—just enter deeply into this once a day. Cancer patients, do not worry—just enter deeply into this once a day. You saw it before, right? The doctors could not understand it. Someone had cancer, and it had spread elsewhere—the doctor said that because it had spread so much, nothing could be done. That person came to Busan. He concentrated on breathing and prayer. It is beyond comprehension. The doctor cannot understand it. “Is this believable?” A normal result—he received a normal diagnosis at the hospital. I know this. The secret of concentration. Do it. An amazing thing will happen to you. Forty days of concentration turned the world upside down. We are losing the immense blessings that have come to us.
Eternity (300%) – What is eternity? It is a masterpiece. We call this 300%.
imply enjoy. You must surely have it at least once—concentration. Do 24 comfortably. With eyes open, when you return home, find answers while praying, and turn all meetings with people during the day into prayer. There are a lot of needless words; turn them into prayer. Because they say only wrong things, turn them into prayer. Because they speak only worldly words that give no blessing, turn them into prayer. Right? And then concentrate just once—bartizan/journey/guidepost. Then this comes out. What comes out is eternity. As you enjoy this blessing, it is God’s Word.

I have not come to teach but as a witness. In my childhood I saw poverty, disease, and incompetence. I held to those and began to pray. Amazingly, the answers came for my entire life. So before going into the field, I prepared evangelism 300%. Now I am preparing for the 237 nations and the 5,000 tribes. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that a new beginning will arise for you.

Prayer. We give thanks to God. May this conference become the most important conference in my life. May it be a conference in which disease departs. May it be a conference in which poverty and curses depart. May it be a conference in which industry people revive the church. May it be a conference in which industry people do missions. May it be a conference in which the posterity is saved. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.

The Five Assurances and the Eternal Answer

2024.10.06 District Message
Scripture Reading: 2 Timothy 3:14-15

We cannot pray doing nothing for twenty-four hours.
[ 3 concentrations ]
However, if prayer takes place for me when I wake up in the morning, I can recover almost everything. And if at night I can obtain answers through the Word, there is nothing more important than that—because there is day in between. We call this the three concentrations. You must surely do this.
[ 3 settings ]
If our Remnants simply pray a bit in the morning and a bit at night, something tremendous is formed. This (the three settings) is formed.
[ 3 answers ]
From then on, important things are seen in advance. That is the three answers.
[ 3 concentrations ][ 24 ]
This is what we call 24. How could we do just one thing the same way for twenty-four hours? We cannot. Even when you pray a little, it is so. Personally, to you and to our elders, I want to say this: in the morning, truly gain strength and recover all. And at night, obtain the answer of the Word and then sleep. Then the daytime comes alive. That is 24.
[ 3 settings ][ 25 ]
When this happens, something is built. Simply put, God’s bartizan, journey—these are formed. That is the three settings. We call this 25. With our own strength we cannot save people, so we need this strength.
[ 3 answers ][ eternity ]
More importantly, as you keep finding answers in problems, conflicts, and crises, you begin to see what is eternal. In the end, we are living inside this. Now, why do we do this?
[ accurate covenant ]
There are many reasons, but as we continue this, the accurate covenant becomes clear to us. This is important. No matter how excellent you are, if you hold a wrong covenant, it is useless. Hold the accurate covenant. (2 Timothy 3:14–15) Then, as Paul said to Timothy, assurance comes to us. With the accurate covenant and assurance, we can believe.
[ answers ]
When you do this, tremendous things happen. People do not really know what true answers are.
[ 7·7·7 ]
When you pray this way—when you worship today, and when you hold the military-missions assembly—this (7·7·7) is formed. It begins to be formed. This is the answer. What is produced outwardly is a result. This first comes upon me.
[ the throne – kingdom, work – darkness broken ]
Here, what Jesus emphasized most is the throne. When it comes, God’s kingdom. And the work of God’s kingdom. At such a time, because the kingdom has come, darkness is broken.
[ the army of heaven ]
At that time, something you never even thought of—people hardly think of it—appears very often in Scripture: the armies of God’s kingdom. Heavenly hosts and angels are mentioned often. Because we look only at what is visible to the eye, these look valueless. Even pastors do not believe this, so how can the congregation believe? But Jesus spoke of this and left—it is accurate to say He spoke of this from the beginning. “Why do you pray asking for such needless things?” Jesus said that, didn’t He? “Doesn’t God know what you need? Therefore pray for the kingdom of God.” This is it. Everything is contained here. Because this is invisible, no one can steal it. There are no competitors here—why? Because they do not come. There are scarcely any pastors praying over this. They just keep asking for things. What are you asking for? This (7·7·7; throne–kingdom, work–darkness broken; the army of heaven) must first be formed in me; then spiritual strength arises and many works begin to happen. When a person who has this answer continues this (three concentrations – 24, three settings – 25, three answers – eternity), the darkness within the military begins to collapse. And—though I began in a 12-pyeong room, and in Seoul we began in the Seocho preaching point, a basement—now the five thousand tribes have begun to gather. That is the result. This is what matters.

▣ Introduction

Jews – three years
So there is something we should reference a little: the Jews continued to believe what was wrong. It is very lamentable. Therefore during three years Jesus spoke only what would overturn everything. Take this to heart. The Jews did not receive answers, disaster came, and they did not know why it came. They still do not know. As you know, in Washington there is a place where their sufferings are collected and displayed. Looking at that, Jews make resolutions. That’s fine as far as it goes, but they do not know the reason. Even now Jews do not know why. When we tried to give them the gospel, they said, “We are the chosen people; you are Gentiles.” Will there not be war? God promised to send the Christ, but they taught that the Messiah would save Israel and crush other nations. That is wrong. They taught, “You must keep all the Law to be saved.” So when the gospel was given to the Jews, they did something else—and disaster came. Never hold to what is wrong.
Mark’s upper room – limitation
The church that began in Mark’s upper room did not evangelize Rome. Right? One must go to Rome—this is the last message of our military-missions conference today—one must go to Rome, where the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes are. They did not go. They were not “wrong,” but they revealed a limitation. What limitation? They did not understand this (7·7·7; throne–kingdom, work–darkness broken; the army of heaven).
Rome – warfare
So the ones who appeared were Paul’s team. Paul’s team accomplished world evangelization. The disciples they taught arose and conquered Rome. Unbelievable, but true—they conquered Rome. Christianity changed rapidly. Why? Because the emperor—of every nation, the Roman emperor—had to go to worship on the Lord’s Day. Now this is no ordinary matter. Churches were established everywhere, and it became important which church the emperor would attend. Then the head of the whole church was the pope. Thus the king and the pope clashed. With power came such problems; many wars arose.

▣ Main – Acts 19:8
There was one who understood these words: Paul. “He explained the kingdom of God boldly.” When? After he had finished all his evangelism, at the time he had to enter Rome. Important, isn’t it? Then at Tyrannus he caused the work of God to arise. He showed it then—in Tyrannus. He explained about the kingdom of God—boldly, and for three months. He understood well. So you must understand the covenant accurately. Jesus said, “It is finished.” The world church still holds what He told us not to do and keeps doing it—so the church does not stand. Be diligent, yes—but do not be diligent about what Jesus told you not to do. When you grasp it this way, five assurances come.

「 Five assurances 」

Assurance of salvation – [ Christ ]
First, assurance of salvation. I am a child of God who has been saved. This is not accounting; it is relationship. What we do to receive answers matters, but it is about relationship with God. We are spiritual beings—children of God. What is the evidence? Simply this: through anything else you cannot become a child of God. If this (Christ) is understood, you become a child of God. Nothing else suffices. I have even said it to Buddhist monks: the best “religion,” in human estimation, is Buddhism. But if you do not know this (Christ), you cannot be saved. If so, then the worst religion is Buddhism—because it says, “No need for anything else; I myself become Buddha.” That is a fearful statement: “I become Nephilim.” It is the same content as the first words of the devil: “You will be like God.” Magnificent words, humanly speaking.
If you remember nothing else, passages like 1 John 5:11–13 give the most answers. See the small-group guide. The basis of the assurance of salvation is Christ.
Assurance of guidance – [ the Triune God ]
Next is this: Christ leads us perfectly in a way unseen to the eye. You must believe this—entirely unseen—by the Spirit of the Triune God. Therefore you may have assurance. When I went out to evangelize, by temperament I was not good at going around looking for people, so I went out with sure answers. Paul did that. To the point that he even fasted in order to receive perfect leading by the Holy Spirit. So must we.
Assurance of answered prayer – [ the Name ]
More than that: assurance of answered prayer. Most people miss this and therefore have many anxieties. What is most important here? “Pray in My name.” In other words, you no longer need to slaughter calves. You no longer need to offer lambs. Those were prophetic pointers; you need not do that now. Do not catch a calf and so on—pray directly in My name. In John 17:11–12, the name of Jesus Christ is called God’s name. See it carefully. “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call His name Immanuel.” The name the forces of darkness fear most is the name of Jesus Christ.
Some even get irritated when the name is used—those not saved. Some who come to church do not like it when we keep speaking the gospel—those not saved. When you have a stomach disease or cancer, you dislike eating—eating is hard. Right? But a healthy person ate so much yesterday and is hungry again today—that is a living person. If you water a dead tree, it rots; if you water a living tree, it thrives. It is the same.
You must have assurance—whatever the case, when you pray, answers must come. Therefore I say, form this (7·7·7; throne–kingdom, work–darkness broken; the army of heaven). It has not been formed. We keep doing only what is visible. What is visible is the result. If you have been shocked and agonized for three months and fell ill—this is a result. I told you before: a friend returned from the Vietnam War and, because of what he experienced, he suffered epilepsy—that is a result; the shock had already entered his inner person. This (7·7·7; throne–kingdom, work–darkness broken; the army of heaven) must first come; this is the answer to prayer. Jesus spoke of this: “Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.” I pondered this long and found this prayer (7·7·7; throne–kingdom, work–darkness broken; the army of heaven). It is exactly what Jesus explained so simply in Scripture. We keep ignoring that and praying other prayers. Even in the car coming here I kept praying this. It is so good.
Assurance of forgiveness – [ disaster ]
Fourth, the assurance of forgiveness. No one can overcome disaster. Therefore Christ resolved on the cross all the disasters you should have borne.
Assurance of victory – [ reason ]
Assurance of victory—1 Corinthians 10:13. God gives us trials we can bear and makes us overcome them. “Gives trials we can bear” means this: every trial that happens to you has a reason. God has a reason to give you answers and victory. So what do these words mean? If a rather big trial is coming this time, it means you are a rather big vessel. Be prepared. “A great difficulty has come to me”—then see it as “I will receive a great answer.” That is accurate. Of course, having no trial at all is nice, but it is not necessarily the best. Why? On the day we leave this earth, there are no more trials—that’s the end. While we live, there are trials. God will surely give you victory—for a reason: because we must do world evangelization.

▣ Conclusion

God’s standard
Most important, we each have our own thoughts. That seems normal, but we are easily struck down by them. If it is certain that God is with you like this, then we must change our standard. Right? When you do so, answers keep coming. If it is certain that—unseen to the eye—by the Spirit of the Triune God, with the power of the throne, God is with me, then this (God’s standard) is how it becomes.
God’s plan
Therefore, we go seeing this—God’s plan. We must discover God’s plan for our church in order to be a proper church. Look at our church: why is the closing of this important military-missions conference being held at our church? This is a tremendous blessing for our church. Soldiers all over the world are hearing the message now—then we must quickly discover, “What is God’s plan for our church?” In the early days, half of the associate pastors were paid by the church but worked outside as well. Why? Because we had to do world evangelization—discover it quickly. Discover God’s plan.
Flow (prayer, Word, testimony)
Finally, confirm this today: there are surely three flows—of answered prayer, of the Word, and of the testimony (rather than “evangelism,” the testimony you receive). See it this way.
Then the day of worship today is the time of Mount Calvary, the time of Mt Olive, the time of Mark’s upper room, the time of Antioch. Right? The time of worship today is the time of Asian missions in which Paul received perfect leading by the Holy Spirit. The time of worship today is the time when the difficult parts in my life become turning points—“Come over to Macedonia.” The time of worship and prayer today is “You must also see Rome.” I have just spoken of the important seven guideposts. That is the aim.
May the blessing of restoring the five powers overflow for you as you pray all day today, in the name of Jesus Christ. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, we thank You. We thank You that today we offer the Lord’s Day worship to God as a military-missions service. Let the most important disciple ministry for military missions arise. Let one person who receives answers become the beginning of saving one region. Let one person who has the covenant become the one through whom a nation is saved. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

Inquiring of the Holy Spirit

Acts 16:13. On the Sabbath we went outside the city gate to the river, where we expected to find a place of prayer. We sat down and began to speak to the women who had gathered there.

The ministry of Apostle Paul was marked by one consistent pattern—inquiring of the Holy Spirit. Before he and his team ever set out on their first missionary journey, the church at Antioch sought the will of God together in worship, fasting, and prayer:

“Now in the church at Antioch there were prophets and teachers: Barnabas, Simeon called Niger, Lucius of Cyrene, Manaen (who had been brought up with Herod the tetrarch) and Saul. While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, ‘Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.’ So after they had fasted and prayed, they placed their hands on them and sent them off” (Acts 13:1–3).

The early church did not move without the Spirit’s command. Every decision, every direction, every mission began with inquiring of the Spirit of God.

Paul continued this same dependence throughout his ministry. He constantly sought what the Spirit desired—not his own plans or ambitions:

“Paul and his companions traveled throughout the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been kept by the Holy Spirit from preaching the word in the province of Asia. When they came to the border of Mysia, they tried to enter Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus would not allow them to” (Acts 16:6–7).

At Troas, when the door was closed, Paul prayed so earnestly that he saw a vision revealing where the Spirit wanted him to go—to Macedonia (Acts 16:10). This single moment of prayer and obedience changed the course of world history.

When they arrived in Philippi, the leading city of Macedonia, their first act was not to preach or plan but to find a place of prayer—to inquire once again of the Holy Spirit (Acts 16:13). Even when confronted by the slave girl possessed by an evil spirit, Paul waited patiently for the Spirit’s timing (Acts 16:16–18). He understood that the captain of his team was not him, but the Holy Spirit. Every step was guided from the throne of the Triune God.

King David lived the same way. Though David was a king, he knew that the true King was God, not himself. Before taking any action, he inquired of the Lord:

“When David was told, ‘Look, the Philistines are fighting against Keilah and are looting the threshing floors,’ he inquired of the Lord, saying, ‘Shall I go and attack these Philistines?’ The Lord answered him, ‘Go, attack the Philistines and save Keilah.’ But David’s men said to him, ‘Here in Judah we are afraid.’ … Once again, David inquired of the Lord, and the Lord answered him” (1 Samuel 23:1–4).

David acknowledges that the battle belonged to the Lord. The same truth applies to us because:

“For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
    neither are your ways my ways,”
declares the Lord.
“As the heavens are higher than the earth,
    so are my ways higher than your ways
    and my thoughts than your thoughts.” (Isaiah 55:8-9)

God’s wisdom is higher, His timing perfect, and His plan eternal. Therefore, before thinking, planning, or acting, inquire of Him. Inquiring of the Holy Spirit is not a sign of weakness—it is the key to a victorious life in Christ:

“The peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 4:7).

The Spirit of God transcends time and space. His power is infinite, and His wisdom beyond measure. One moment of His direction outweighs a lifetime of human effort.

So learn to wait before you move. Be still until He speaks. Seek His will in prayer and through His Word. When you inquire of the Spirit, He will lead you to the exact place, time, and people prepared by God for world evangelization.

Prayer. Father, teach me to stand still before You and to seek Your voice above all else. Help me to wait for the guidance of Your Spirit, not rushing ahead with my own thoughts or plans. Open my eyes to see Your desire and purpose for today, and help me follow where You lead. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

7 Guideposts the New Believer Makes

Prayer Journal: November 6, 2025
05. Nov. 2024 237 New Believers & Field Ministers’ Training, Lecture 3
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:8

Among our well-known sayings, there is the story of “Sai-ong loses his horse.”
“Saeng” is the man’s name—the story is the words of Old Man Saeng. This is worth telling to new family members (newcomers). A servant came and said, “Master, a great misfortune has happened.” “What is it?” “The horse ran away from home.” Old Man Saeng replied, “A horse has legs—of course it can go somewhere.” A little later, “A very happy thing has happened.” “What is it?” “The horse came back and brought another one.” “That can happen too; perhaps its owner will come.” Then again, “Now truly a great misfortune has happened.” “What is it?” “Your son fell while riding and injured his leg.” “That can happen too.” “A very good thing has happened. They are conscripting soldiers now, but because your son hurt his leg, he will not have to go to the army.”

What was so good? What was so bad? You must tell this to newcomers. What, really, is the problem? The things you think are hardships—you are actually receiving blessing. You realize it after the fact. Seeing it beforehand is what we call faith. So tell the newcomer that story. What is your real problem? We have to examine that. What Christians think are “problems” are almost never the real problem, right? We keep calling things problems. Because we called what is not a problem a problem, there is no answer. We must untie that knot—truly explain it and untie it. And from now on you must set up guideposts. That is the most important thing. Real answers come out of guideposts.

▣ Introduction – 300% (Work/Evangelism/Missions)
Make everything 300%—your work, and evangelism, and missions; especially the children’s studies. Last week at the university student gathering I told them, “Be sure you prepare this and go out.” This has already been said, hasn’t it? What God has prepared for me—we should, of course, find it. Concerning me: 100%. Surely there is God’s plan in the field: we find that—100%. Then reproduction and continuation must take place—100%…

Pastors must do this. If you set up just a few absolute bartizans like this, the church will be revived by itself—continuously. In Busan, a college student who was from Seoul was studying in Busan. One of our Remnants attended the same school and shared the gospel. He truly received the gospel—he was a prepared person. He kept attending Busan Immanuel Church, graduated, went up to Seoul, became a physician, and registered at Yewon Church—and became an elder there. As it happened, when I was laying on hands, he sat right in front of me. It’s not easy to meet like that, right? How meaningful was it to me! A complete unbeliever in Busan received the gospel and became an elder at Yewon Church. God had prepared it perfectly.

1. Calvary – “It is finished.”
The Calvary guidepost—tell them to enjoy this every day. There is much to say, but: “It is finished. It is finished.”

2. Mt Olive – My mission
The Mt Olive guidepost—this is where you find your very important personal mission. Even if one is a newcomer, it must be found.

3. Mark’s upper room – My prayer
Then they came to Mark’s upper room. What must not be missed here is this: find “my prayer.” How will you enjoy happiness and enjoy power in prayer? We must give this.

4. Antioch – My evangelism and missions
Antioch. From now on, because things are prepared, look for them: my evangelism, my missions. They surely exist, so we should find them. Within this, every answer is fulfilled.

5. Asia – Start of life (100% led by the Holy Spirit)
In Asia (Acts 13:1–4). Because this part is so important, this is always the start of life: to be perfectly led by the Holy Spirit. Do it this way from now on. If you don’t know, then wait. “100% led by the Holy Spirit”—say this.

6. Macedonia – Turning point
Macedonia. So when doors are blocked and things don’t work, don’t give up and don’t flail about. It is a very important time. At such times you will meet turning points in life.

7. Rome – My “ends of the earth”
Be sure to say this. Rome—this guidepost is my ends of the earth. My ends of the earth is Rome.

First help them understand like this. You also must receive this blessing. If you speak of things that are too difficult, newcomers can’t do them. Tell them what they can do, but tell them what is most important. If you set up the guideposts at which you received these answers and then work from there, God’s work will arise because of those people.

▣ Main

1. Change your morning routine.
From now on, change your morning routine. This is very important.

1) Prayer that revives me
Absolutely—prayer that revives me. As said before about “prayer that revives me”…
(1) Brain – The brain that keeps dying is revived.
(2) Spirit – My spirit is revived.
(3) Body – As a result, the body is revived. This must be given.

2) 7/7/7 concentrated prayer
And, of course, the guideposts—keep offering prayer about the 7/7/7. Do it even once—offer one concentrated prayer about these guideposts, even once. Through concentration, everything happens. Concentration has tremendous meaning.

3) Leeway
And in the morning hours, you must find great leeway—margin. Find it. In a sense, it is enjoyment. Explain it simply.

2. Daytime
Daytime.

1) Conversational prayer
In the daytime, offer conversational prayer with God.

2) Work, people, field
About what? All work, all people, and all fields—you meet them, don’t you? Enjoy these through prayer. Everything changes completely.

3) The seven Remnants
That was the prayer of the seven Remnants. Joseph went as a slave and could not go aside somewhere to pray. He began to pray within his work. You need this secret. “How do I do breathing?”—pray within everything. On my flight to Munich this time I watched something about meditation. Early morning—there’s a nice little garden and a chair, and they do it there. That will surely help. But I laughed as I watched. Doing it like that, you cannot conquer the world. We must do 24. It is entirely possible. The seven Remnants did 24. And they received important answers. When sleeping, of course, one can do it comfortably.

3. Nighttime
Nighttime.

1) Answer
At night you must absolutely obtain answers. Don’t just fall asleep. Get the answer—whether through prayer or by praying on the Word of God until assurance comes. I actually pray this prayer a lot: “God, what is the meaning of this Word?” I may know it, but I still pray over it. That is why, to me, “being filled with the Holy Spirit” is this (300%): making everything God has given fully mine. I gain many prayers’ answers through questioning prayer.

2) Strength
You must gain strength at night. A bit of an issue is that sometimes sleep flees.

3) Healing
At night, healing happens.

You must teach this—simply. In the morning, like this; in the day, absolutely like this; at night, like this. As for my own method of concentration: Immanuel Kant concentrated by hiking—every day, at exact times—housewives could tell the time by seeing Kant pass by. That too is tremendous concentration. Edison used fishing—to build his concentration. I do this concentration by breathing. In the morning, a 1:1 ratio—slow inhale and exhale—praying; I still do it now. While interpreting, I inhale and exhale as I speak, doing it comfortably. Do everything with prayer, then give a focused 10 minutes. Do it every day like that. Teach newcomers concretely and simply so they can actually do it.

▣ Conclusion
Then conclude again like this.

1. 24 – Enjoy it
Enjoy 24—enjoy it through prayer.

2. 25 – Take a time of concentration
25—take a time of concentration. Teach it this way.

3. Eternity – Leave a masterpiece
Eternity. From now on, leave the masterpiece of your faith in the church—start from the beginning. David prayed for temple construction from the very beginning. Then history had to arise. These are the three things newcomers must actually enjoy as taught today. Then history will arise because of one person.

Pastors, let me say it again.
Begin to set up the absolute bartizans of 300%. Evangelism cannot fail. History will arise. Do not try to do it by your own strength; begin now entirely by the Spirit’s leading, the Spirit’s work, and the Spirit’s fruit. Then God will give it to you in exquisite ways.

A true disciple is not shaken. If one is shaken, it is a counterfeit. A true disciple does not take offense, right? A true disciple prays for the pastor. A true disciple prays 24 for the pastor. You must surely do so.
If I were a church leader, I would pray 24 for my pastor. I would always give mission offerings to my pastor—sincerely; not just giving, but truly enjoying and receiving blessing. And if I were a church leader, by my temperament, I would build a palace-like house and invite multi-ethnics; I would invite Remnants from the provinces—“Just live here. Don’t do laundry; study. Don’t pay for meals; just eat.” If it were me, I would do so. How good is that! It is raising talent. In those talented ones, you plant the bartizan/journey/guidepost. Will they succeed or not? They will. When they succeed later, “You do the same.” That is world evangelization.

I bless you that this blessing will begin for you in the name of Jesus Christ.

Prayer. May the grace of Jesus Christ who solved every problem, the great love of God, and the working of the Holy Spirit be with all disciples who will accomplish 300%, from now to eternity, always. Amen.
