The Joy of Prayer

Hebrews 4:14-16. Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. 15 For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. 16 Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.


If you can focus on the Word in prayer for even five minutes a day, you can move the world. That is the power of the Word and prayer. When your heart aligns with God’s Word, the power of the throne will work powerfully in you and through you.

That is why intimate time with the Father was essential in the life of our Lord Jesus Christ. He rose early to pray (Mark 1:35), withdrew to lonely places (Luke 5:16), and even spent entire nights in prayer before important decisions (Luke 6:12). Prayer was His source of strength and communion.

This same pattern is seen throughout Scripture. King David governed and shepherded God’s people through a life centered on prayer: “In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice” (Psalm 5:3); “I cry out to you for help, Lord; in the morning my prayer comes before you” (Psalm 88:13); “I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His Word I put my hope” (Psalm 130:5). Paul also moved the world through the power of the gospel, urging believers to “pray in the Spirit on all occasions” (Ephesians 6:18).

When you are truly with God, nothing remains a problem. In His presence, everything becomes clear. Through His Word, you begin to discover what God desires for you. You gain discernment—what to do, where to go, and how to respond.

When you enter a secret place and focus on God, He fills you with the power of the Holy Spirit. You receive wisdom from above—wisdom that the world cannot understand, produce, or imitate. This is the same wisdom given to Daniel, so distinct that even kings and magicians recognized it. Scripture says that “in every matter of wisdom and understanding about which the king questioned them, he found them ten times better than all the magicians and enchanters in his whole kingdom” (Daniel 1:20).

With that power and wisdom from the kingdom of God, there is no person you cannot reach and no place beyond God’s work. This is the blessing of becoming a “spiritual summit”—a person who stands above circumstances because they are rooted in God. This is not something you earn; it is the promise of God.

Yet many believers live as though they are gasping for “spiritual oxygen,” unaware of the vast, life-giving world of prayer. As a result, they live without power, never experiencing the “abundant life” Jesus promised (John 10:10). Prayer is not a burden—it is the very breath of spiritual life.

According to today’s Word, if you are a child of God, you have been given the greatest privilege imaginable: full access to the throne of God (Hebrews 4:14–16). Jesus Christ, seated at the right hand of the Father, is even now interceding for you: “He always lives to intercede for them” (Hebrews 7:25).

As your true High Priest, He has already dealt with your sin and your weaknesses at the cross. He alone was qualified to offer Himself as a ransom for many because He was without sin, completely free from the power of original sin (Mark 10:45). Through Him, the barrier between God and man has been removed.

Now, through Christ, the throne room of God is open to all who believe. There is nothing you cannot bring before your Father. He knows you completely and cares for you deeply. Every concern, every burden, every question—you can bring them all to Him.

And when you enter His presence in prayer, everything changes. Jesus promised: “Whoever believes in Me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these… You may ask Me for anything in My name, and I will do it” (John 14:12–14).

There is life in the name of Jesus. There is power in the name of Jesus. There is healing in the name of Jesus.

So begin—even with a few focused minutes each day with deep breathing. Discover the joy of meeting with God. Taste the reality of His presence. As you do, you will find that your thoughts, your strength, and your entire life begin to change. This is the true life of prayer.


Prayer. Father, thank You for opening the way for me to come before Your throne. Teach me to enjoy prayer, to hold onto Your Word, and to meet with You daily. Let me experience the power, wisdom, and joy that come from being with You. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

The Blessing of the Evangelist

Matthew 10:40-42. “Whoever welcomes a prophet as a prophet will receive a prophet’s reward, and whoever welcomes a righteous person as a righteous person will receive a righteous person’s reward. And if anyone gives even a cup of cold water to one of these little ones who is my disciple, truly I tell you, that person will certainly not lose their reward.”


Always remember that your labor for the sake of the gospel is never wasted (1 Corinthians 15:58). God sees and remembers even the smallest act done in His name. When Jesus sent out His disciples, He made it clear that even offering a cup of cold water to one of the least will not go unnoticed before God. If such a small act carries eternal significance, how much greater is the reward for sharing the gospel of life that saves a soul?

Evangelism is God’s chosen method for salvation. Scripture says, “For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know Him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe” (1 Corinthians 1:21). No matter how advanced human knowledge becomes, it cannot lead us to truly know God. That is why God Himself revealed to us the good news: Jesus is the Christ.

And remarkably, God has chosen us as His instruments to carry this message. He calls us into the greatest work possible: saving lives. Jesus said, “Come, follow Me, and I will send you out to fish for people” (Matthew 4:19). Our role begins simply by following Him. He did not call us because we were qualified, but because He desired us. He called us to be with Him, to know Him, and then to be sent out. For this mission, He has given us authority and power—even authority to drive out demons (Mark 3:13–15).

Why is such authority necessary? Scripture reveals that the whole world lies under the control of the evil one (1 John 5:19). Behind broken lives and corrupted culture is a spiritual reality. Therefore, evangelism is a spiritual warfare. In the name of Jesus, we confront the darkness that binds people’s minds and hearts. God enables us to communicate the gospel across every language and culture by exposing the enemy’s work and revealing Christ’s truth.

Not only that, but God has given us the authority to overcome all the enemy’s power. He promises protection and calls us to bring healing to those who suffer—physically, emotionally, and spiritually (Mark 16:15–20). Evangelism carries both power and compassion. It restores what sin and Satan have destroyed.

Because of this, we must understand the urgency of our time. Individual lives are short. The present age is passing. History is moving toward a clear conclusion: the gospel will be preached to all nations, and then the end will come (Matthew 24:14). This is not a vague hope but God’s determined plan.

That is why, before His ascension, Jesus gave His final promise and commission: “You will be My witnesses…to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8). This was His last word. Evangelism, therefore, is not optional in the believer’s life; it is central.

Yet many believers feel burdened or distant from evangelism. Some think it is too difficult. Others assume it belongs only to specially gifted individuals. But evangelism is the natural expression of a life that has received life. If you have truly been saved by Christ, then evangelism is simply introducing Jesus to those still living under darkness (Acts 10:38).

This is why evangelism is such a great blessing. Satan knows this and actively works to keep believers distracted or discouraged. But when you truly know, believe, and experience that Jesus is the Christ, evangelism flows naturally. When you are enjoying Christ—His life, His power, His presence—you cannot help but speak about what you have seen and heard (Acts 4:20).

So the issue is not whether you “do” evangelism. The real question is: how close is evangelism to your daily life? Is it distant and occasional, or is it woven into how you think, speak, and live?

Throughout history, God’s timetable has always centered on saving lives. His focus has never changed. Therefore, align your life with His priority. This is what Jesus meant when He said, “Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well” (Matthew 6:33). When evangelism becomes your focus, God takes responsibility for the rest.

The risen Lord gave us clear direction:

Go and make disciples of all nations (Matthew 28:18–20).
Go into all the world, preach the gospel to all creation, and heal the sick (Mark 16:15).
Feed My lambs, the remnants (John 21:15–17).
I will make you My witnesses to the ends of the earth (Acts 1:8).

This is an invitation to the life best lived—the life of the evangelist.

Even the act of living this life is already a blessing. But beyond that, God promises a reward. Jesus declared that anyone who gives up anything for Him and for the gospel will receive far more—even in this life, along with eternal life in the age to come (Mark 10:29–30).

Paul understood this deeply. To him, the greatest treasure was knowing Christ. His life was focused on gaining Christ, experiencing the power of His resurrection, and pressing toward the eternal prize (Philippians 3:1–21). The people who came to Christ through his ministry were his true reward—his hope, his joy, and his crown (2 Thessalonians 2:19–20).

Therefore, make this your resolution:

Only Christ (Acts 1:1).
Only the kingdom of God (Acts 1:3).
Only the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8).
Only being His witness (Acts 1:8).

This is everything you need to overcome the world and the power of darkness. Do not be shaken by circumstances or opinions. The victory is already determined: those who believe that Jesus is the Christ overcome the world (1 John 5:1–5).

Do not lose heart. The One who holds all authority in heaven and on earth is with you. His promise stands firm: “I am with you always, even to the very end of the age” (Matthew 28:20).


Prayer. Father, thank You for calling me to be an evangelist in this time. Strengthen me so that I may run with endurance the race set before me and receive the prize You have prepared. Let my life bear fruit that remains for eternity. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Expect Hardships!

Matthew 10:28-33.  Do not be afraid of those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. Rather, be afraid of the One who can destroy both soul and body in hell. 29 Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? Yet not one of them will fall to the ground outside your Father’s care. 30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered. 31 So don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

32 “Whoever acknowledges me before others, I will also acknowledge before my Father in heaven. 33 But whoever disowns me before others, I will disown before my Father in heaven.


Satan opposes evangelism because it directly undermines his dominion. Wherever the gospel that Jesus is the Christ is proclaimed, God’s kingdom advances. As a result, the power of darkness is broken, and lives are restored. For this reason, he resists evangelists with intensity, seeking to silence, discourage, or distract them. Scripture describes him as one who prowls like a devouring predator, looking for ways to hinder the work of the gospel and intimidate those who carry it (1 Peter 5:7-8).

Therefore, as evangelists, we are called to be both wise and pure. We move with discernment and quiet strength, like a serpent that does not draw unnecessary attention; yet our hearts and motives must remain clean and sincere, like an innocent dove (Matthew 10:16). Our goal is never self-promotion or recognition, but the faithful proclamation of Christ. The gospel must be shared with gentleness and deep respect for others, trusting that God Himself will open hearts in His time (1 Peter 3:15).

If you identify yourself as an evangelist, you should not be surprised when difficulties arise. Hardship is not an exception; it is part of the calling. Jesus Himself warned that His followers would face opposition, rejection, and even betrayal. At times, resistance may come not only from the world but also from those closest to us (Matthew 10:35-36.) This reality can feel heavy, but it confirms that we are walking the same path as Christ and His disciples.

Yet in the midst of such trials, we are called to rejoice. Why? Because opposition often reveals that the gospel is being proclaimed in its truth and purity. The enemy does not wage war against what is ineffective or compromised. When evangelism aligns with God’s heart and purpose, it provokes resistance. In this sense, hardship becomes a sign of faithful witness.

The early church understood this well. When they boldly proclaimed the name of Jesus, persecution quickly followed. Still, they did not retreat. Instead, they rejoiced, recognizing that suffering for the sake of Christ was an honor (Acts 5:41). They held firmly to the conviction that present suffering is temporary, while the glory to come is eternal and beyond comparison. This eternal perspective gave them the strength to continue without fear.

In the same way, we must learn to see hardship not as a burden alone, but as a mark of glory and participation in God’s work. It refines our faith and deepens our dependence on Him. Rather than shrinking back, we press forward—fixing our eyes on the eternal prize and the calling God has placed before us. We do not grow weary in doing good, because we know that in due time, there will be a harvest (Galatians 6:9).

Our hope and joy are not found in comfort, but in the lives transformed through the gospel we proclaim. Those who come to know Christ become our crown—our testimony of God’s grace at work through us (1 Thessalonians 2:19). This eternal perspective reshapes how we view every challenge and every opportunity.

God has appointed us as His witnesses, and He does not leave us without assurance. In His time, He will make the truth evident. Even when misunderstood or opposed, we can trust that He sees, He knows, and He will reveal what is hidden. Our responsibility is not to defend ourselves, but to remain faithful.

So we do not fear people or circumstances. We stand before God, entrusting our lives fully into His hands. In Christ, we are secure beyond what the world can touch. Nothing can ultimately harm us, because our lives are hidden in Him.

Never forget your value in the eyes of your Father. His care for you is personal and detailed—down to the smallest things (Matthew 10:29-31). Even the hairs on your head are numbered by your Father and that you are worth more than many sparrows. In moments of difficulty, you are not alone. The Holy Spirit is with you, strengthening you, guiding your words, and working through you in ways you may not even see.

Whether the time feels favorable or not, whether the response is positive or resistant, we continue to acknowledge Jesus Christ as Lord before the world. This is our calling, our privilege, and our mission.


Prayer. Father, thank You for calling me to stand on and proclaim the gospel, even in the midst of hardship. Strengthen me by Your Spirit so that I may speak clearly, live faithfully, and endure with joy. Guard my heart, purify my motives, and use my life for Your glory. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Camp – Missions Festival

2026.04.25 Core
The Bartizan of God’s Kingdom That Fulfills the Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (17)
「Camp – Missions Festival」 (Ac 19:21)


From now on, the many paths you travel will become a camp. And so it will become a camp where a missions festival fully takes place.

▣ Intro
And so there is always something that must be done first.

1. Morning
When you open your eyes in the morning, you must unconditionally restore your health, restore your prayer, and restore everything. This time is the time of conquering the universe. This is entirely about restoration.

2. Daytime
From now is daytime. This is completely the time of conquering the world. Because this is one of the paths of conquering the world right now, it is the same.

3. Night
At night is the 300% in which you completely create your masterpiece.

This must be done every day. Always. This is why you must be healthier next year than this year. Like Moses. You must go on doing world evangelization until the day you die.

▣ Main
In today’s Main I will cover the entire message all at once.

1 VVVIP
First, to the church leader workers. How do I pray for church leaders? In English a church leader is called a “church officer,” is that not right? I do not pray that way. They are a “very important person.” A very important person (VIP). Not just important — a very, very important person (VVIP). That is the church leader in my prayer. There is one more. A very, very, very important person (VVVIP).

[ Int. ] Church, Field, RT
Why? Because these people must save three places. These people save the church. These church leaders must gain strength to save the field. These church leaders must gain strength to save the remnants.

[ Main ]
And so the blessings the church leaders will receive are all the same — they are the power of the throne — yet they are distinct.

1. Acts 2:1-4
“When the day of Pentecost had fully come.” They are the key figures who enjoy the blessings of these three festivals.

2. Acts 2:9-11
Acts chapter 2, verses 9, 10, and 11. They are the key figures who enjoy the three courtyards.

3. Acts 2:17-18
And what is here? Acts chapter 2, verses 17 and 18 showed the future. You are the key figures who enjoy all of this — the three-day weekend age and the holy meditation age. At this time God tremendously blessed among the church leaders the strangers who had come from Rome. Why? Because they had to see 237.

[ Con. ] Throne, Kingdom, Works
And so when you have this time (the introduction), three things happen. You must believe this. It is irrelevant to those who have not been saved — these are things that happen to those who have been saved. When you church leaders and workers pray, God places your prayers upon the throne. In the places you must go, and the places you have been, the kingdom of God will certainly come. And if you continue to remain within this (introduction), the works of the kingdom of God are accomplished through you.

There is something important here. “It cannot be done with just the gospel” — if I say this, I will be scolded, right? “Can it be done with just the gospel?” — if I say this, I will be scolded too, right? And yet that is how people are living their lives. “It cannot be done with just the gospel.” That is how they are living.

So if our church leaders truly come to the realization — “Ah, this gospel is it. Everything is within it” — then it is finished. Because that cannot happen, they must grab hold of other things. So there is a lot of talk. There are a lot of reasons. If you truly understand the gospel, there are no reasons. Why? Because you know the real reason. There is nothing to be a problem. Because you know what the real problem is.

Even pastors and theologians, not having understood the gospel — what do they do? Originally, if a church has the gospel, it is finished, but they took it upon themselves to handle everything. They seized the economy, finance, and organization. That is the Catholic Church.

Then resistance arose within it. “No, look here. Church leaders should appoint elders to do the work and run errands, and the priests should be wholly devoted to the Word and prayer.” That is Presbyterianism. In that sense the elders began to rise up. And then these people cause problems again.

So then: “This will not do. We must go with a bishop-centered approach.” That is Methodism. All manner of things, in great numbers, are produced. And then receiving the gospel brings freedom. And then a person can become a little careless.

And so again something arises. “One cannot live that way.” That is the Holiness Church. All manner of things come out. If you do not know the gospel, all manner of things come out.

“Still, we must live having received grace. We must go deeper into grace.” Saying this and starting something of a mystical movement — “Getting baptized is not enough. You have to be fully immersed in water.” That is the Baptist Church. All manner of things, in great numbers, come out.

“Good grief, look here. What do you mean a virgin gives birth to a child? What do you mean the Red Sea parts? What do you mean Jesus walks on water? From the outside it may have looked that way. To walk on water your feet would sink, and to lift your foot before it sinks — is that even possible?” A theology like that also appeared. It was called liberal theology, the new theology.

“No. Look here, right now. The wealthy people consume everything for themselves, and the people working below them suffer. Can we just stand by and let this be? The church must rise up.” Liberation theology.

“That is not all.” This was said about Hitler. “If a madman is driving a car, can we just leave it? We must drag him out.” Those were Bonhoeffer’s words. Political theology — that is how it comes out. All manner of things come out.

It must be finished with the gospel. It is a serious matter. In the early church, church leaders who were finished by the gospel appeared. This is important. “If you gather in the upper room of Mark, you will die?” “Ah, we are fine.” “You have been ordained as a church leader and if you evangelize you will face the death penalty?” “That is fine.” And so they died while evangelizing. Stephen died. Those who are spiritually ignorant think that if they kill someone they have won. Not at all. That became the beginning. An enormous tribulation arose, and the church leaders gathered. “Let us pray. Let us begin with our lives on the line.” It makes no difference. That is the church of Antioch.

In every place, church leaders who are absolute bartizans began to stand up. Is that not right?

2 RRRRT
The remnants. In my prayer the remnants are not simply “remnants.” There are three more R’s. Why? Those who remain, those remaining, those who will remain, those who will leave a remainder. That is the remnant. That is how my prayer goes.

But there is one important thing for the remnants. Prayer does not come easily, does it? If you resolve just that one thing, it is finished. Resolve that, I am saying. If a remnant can pray — it is finished. But that does not come easily. Then one day, I find it comfortable to wake up in the morning and go straight into prayer. That is how it becomes.

[ Int. ]
1. 3 Concentrations
And so remnants, first begin with this. Briefly. Begin the 3 concentrations — morning, midday, evening.

2. Every -Day, Time, Thing
Then this answer — the answer of answers — will come. Every Day comes, Every Time comes, Every Thing comes. Simply put, having done the 3 concentrations just a little, you become connected to everything. This is the answer of answers.

3. 24, 25, 00
Then this happens. 24, 25, eternity. This is the first blessing the remnants must have.

[ Main ]
At this time the remnants become key figures in three places.

1. Church
They become key figures in saving the church.

2. 3 Ages
The second — they become key figures of the 3 ages. And more than that.

3. Mission
Without exception they have been the key figures of mission. Where? In Egypt. In the age of the Philistines. In the age of Assyria. In the age of Babylon. In the age of Aram. In the age of Rome. Who were consistently the key figures throughout? The remnants.

[ Con. ]
And so in conclusion — the remnants have their curriculum next month, do they not? I will just let you know the titles.

1. 2 Corinthians 1:11
What kind of person can establish an absolute bartizan? 2 Corinthians chapter 1, verse 11.

2. 2 Corinthians 12:1-10
We do not know well what to do when difficulties arise. When conflict arises, find the essence. No matter how correct what you say may be, if you have missed the essence, it is wrong. If a church member and a believer quarrel, no matter how well they quarrel, they are people who have missed the essence. Try working on that for the second Sunday. It means that Paul went up to the third heaven and prayed. Check on it.

3. Galatians 2:20
When problems come or conflict comes in the places you go, what must you do? I cannot change that person. I must change. Try doing a forum on that. Galatians chapter 2, verse 20. “Christ lives in me.”

4. Ephesians 1:1-23
What is the blessing of blessings for us, and what is the blessing that must come first? Ephesians chapter 1, verses 1 through 23. What is it? “I pray that you may know every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms.” That is what it said.

5. Ephesians 1:23
In particular, Ephesians chapter 1, verse 23 says that Christ is the one who fills everything in every way above all things. Try it.

3 King of Kings
How do I pray for pastors and missionaries? I pray for church leaders like this (Main 2), and I pray for the remnants like this (Main 3). In common — when the remnants grew up, when they became missionaries, whom did they save first? Does a common thread not emerge? They saved kings. And so for missionaries, it is this. King of kings. A missionary is a king who saves kings. To put it precisely, a king who has saved kings. And so I added this point as well. A missionary is an uncrowned sovereign. A king without a crown. A true king. A spiritual king.

At this remnants conference: “You are not even kings. You are emperors.” The remnants. Is that not right? Because they only saved emperors. There are many petty kings. The remnants are not that — they saved the very kings who move the world. They saved Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon who moves the world. Someone like Paul went and saved the Roman emperor.

1. 3 Changes
And so our missionaries and pastors must play the role of changing three things. What must be understood here is that among church leaders, those who found the answer in the gospel were used, and among remnants, those who knew how to pray were used. Along with the gospel, of course. But pastors and missionaries will likely often think, “There is absolutely no revival, is there?” You have the answer. You must know the spiritual world. All of life must come out of that world. That is the difference. It is saving the physical world from the spiritual world. Taking responsibility for the physical lives of all the congregation members? No. Taking responsibility for spiritual things. It is not doing what presidents do among all the many things turning in this world. It is doing the spiritual. And so you are spiritual kings — that is what I am saying.

And so I myself must change. When you go to the field you must change. You must change your spiritual state. It is not about changing the field. And then what? It is changing my identity — my past, my today, my future. This must be remembered.

2. Setting of Gospel
Servants of the Lord, missionaries — this must happen for you. The gospel must be set. What is that? The 7 bartizans within me. This is the gospel being set. The 7 journeys on my path. The 7 guideposts in my future. This must be embedded deep within my soul. Textbook. This must always be in my life. Handbook. It must be recorded in my future. Notebook.

Those words may look like mere words, but they are not. Originally the word “text” means message. And this word “book” means meeting. It is enormously important. What belongs to God has come into my heart and a meeting has taken place. That is tremendous. If you are living your faith life normally, while being still, the answer comes. Then you just go. Enjoy this (the Main), I am saying. Servants of the Lord must have the gospel set.

3. Setting of Prayer
Prayer must be set. Servants of the Lord are a little different. What must be done?

1) Acts 1:3
What is the 40 days? This must be set. Only then can you save the church.

2) Acts 2:1
“When the day of Pentecost had fully come” — what is that? That must be set.

3) Acts 2:42
Servants of the Lord must have the four kinds of worship set. What are they? The flow of the Word, the flow of prayer, and also breaking bread day by day, and the enjoyment of the gospel. And fellowship with one another. You must know the value of the congregation, of the church leaders. The discovery must be made that they are the most precious people to me. When elders pray for the pastor, they must be able to discover the part that says “the pastor is the most precious person to me.” Then the world is turned upside down. It does not end there.

4) 24, 25, 00
This is the conclusion.

4. Turning Point
This is the fourth thing the servants of the Lord must set. Tell the congregation, tell the church, the turning point. This time there are three retreats.

The risen Christ gathered the disciples and said he would be with them with all the tremendous authority of heaven and earth. Go to all peoples. Go to all nations. Drive out demons in my name. If you pray in my name, the sick will be healed. It says the Lord seated on the throne was with them. This is the first retreat. It is a retreat.

What is the second turning point? Mt Olive. There a tremendous retreat took place. The 777 explanation of the throne took place. Making that my own is the retreat. The power of Christ who holds all authority in heaven and on earth becoming mine — that is what it means.

What is the important thing? It is now the evangelization of Macedonia. What is hidden in Romans chapter 16, verses 25 through 27 — the hidden card. This must be mine. Is that not right? This must be set.

5. 1000 Bartizans
Finally, before you 1,000 bartizans are waiting. How is it done? Just establish an absolute bartizan. And so I spoke to the pastors earlier, and to the missionaries. When you go to one place, among about 10 people there is truly one. That one becomes the standard. That one will absolutely not waver. If you just deliver the message to that one, works of history keep happening. Between that one and me, 24-hour prayer communication must happen. Works of history take place.

This is the blessing our missionaries receive.

▣ Con_ 7 Points
Let me conclude. The 7 points are waiting. Those are more truly real. God has precisely prepared those who are prepared. They are there. The remnant. And then when you just go, a person already prepared for evangelism is right there waiting. The pilgrim. When you go, a person like the couple Priscilla and Aquila is right there attached and left behind. The conqueror. You completely come to meet the people of Acts chapter 2, verses 9, 10, and 11. Those scattered. A person who completely revives an entire region appears. The watchman. Without even being told, they now go to evangelize. The scout. Finally, one who lifts a banner for all peoples. They are prepared. And so because you have grasped this message, you will come to meet them. Then the 1,000 bartizans are easy.

Because I believed this firmly, I did it right away from the start of the church plant. When I went, there was no church building. That has nothing to do with me. I spread the Word movement in several hundred places. It worked out fine. Is that not right? And then they keep saying let us buy a small piece of land and build, but I would not do it. They would worry among themselves about something. Seeing what they were worrying about — what was the worry? “Ah, our pastor has no thought of building a church and keeps going around doing evangelism.” That was in the early days. “Ah, for our part, our pastor abandons us and goes and does everything somewhere else.” I asked them once. “Is it I who am going? Or is it God who is sending me?” “If I go, will the work be done?” Three years later this (the 1,000 bartizans) truly happened. More than a thousand actual church members came. So there was nothing left to say. So they are there. And so it is not our goal to bring revival, but it is the result. It is not that we do something in order to succeed. God is the one who brings success.

I give thanks and glory to God who gave such great grace this time. I will pray.

Prayer. God, we give thanks. We thank you for calling us to a place of blessing, and we thank you for sending us to the place where God will receive glory. Let us find the 1,000 disciples who will save the dying. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

 

The Historical Facts Regarding the Flood and the Reason

2026.04.26 District Message Week 17
「The Historical Facts Regarding the Flood and the Reason (Genesis 8:1-22)


First, there are a few things you must confirm. On Sundays, you must go holding onto the accurate covenant. Even though people hear the same sermon, every person may hear it differently. You must grab it while looking at the flow of the Word. And on Sunday, there must be a time of very deep prayer. You must do it to the point of gaining fundamental strength. Doctors fix illnesses, but God handles the fundamental things. On Sunday, you must intensively have time to gain fundamental strength. You must gain the power of prayer to the point where even a sickness that was coming retreats.

This content is for the District Bible Study used for studying the Bible in the region. If you do “Branch Church,” you do it there too. Because this is important material, you should personally think about who you will send this message to next week. It would be good to send it to those who need it. In the past, when doing field evangelism, I would participate with a plan for where to evangelize tomorrow. Then, I would think about what Word I would take with me. Especially, who should I pray for and how. That is the “3 Todays,” and it is so important.

A friend contacted me saying they were going on a short-term mission. So, they wanted to meet me. At that time, I had a book titled To Become a Missionary. Since it was at home, I thought I should take it. But I looked and couldn’t find it. I couldn’t buy it at night, and I had to meet them the next day. In the morning, I went to early morning prayer, and a booklet was lying on the floor inside the church. I picked it up, and the title of that book was To Become a Missionary. On the back, it had someone’s name written on it. So when I met the person the next day, I said, “This is so-and-so’s book, so read it and return it.” Although it was just one short day, I came to realize many things.

In this land, spiritual problems are increasingly growing. Development is happening, but there are more people with mental illnesses. Suicides are increasing. Also, drug addicts are increasing. What’s more important is that there are many patients with strange demon-possession illnesses that doctors and ordinary people don’t know well. Right now, shamans are rising up like scammers telling people to do exorcisms (Gut). It is happening tremendously. It would be good to deliver this message today.

「Flood Incident – Disaster」
Today is about the Flood incident. This is a disaster. Why did God bring the Flood?

▣ Introduction _ [Nephilim]
Actually, it was to block the Nephilim disaster. It is a tremendous event, and looking at Noah’s Flood today, there are a few things you must know.

▣ Main Body _ Three Backgrounds
There are three backgrounds.

1. Genesis 3:1–6 As you know, there are several important incidents in the Bible. It is the Garden of Eden incident. Here, they were tempted by Satan and left God.

Genesis 6:1–20 After that, the Flood incident broke out.

Genesis 11:1–8 A little later, the Tower of Babel collapses. This is the first background. However, this is continuing even now.

[Genesis 3:1–6] What did Satan say in Genesis 3? He said something scary. “If you eat this, you will become like God.” The New Age movement growing in America and Europe uses that term. “You become like God.” “You become a powerful one.” “You find the hero inside you.” They teach like this.
[Genesis 6:1–20] Even now, the Nephilim and spirit-contact movements continue. I saw someone writing briefly: Why can’t you leave once you enter the Freemasons? They wrote several reasons, and one was this: Spirit-contact movement. Nephilim movement. You cannot escape.
[Genesis 11:1–8] Now they say, “Let’s build a second Tower of Babel.” The 3 Organizations are continuing it.

1) Idolatry: So people have no choice but to worship idols.
2) Satan: But behind that, the activity of Satan is completely laid out.
3) Spiritual Problems: So spiritual problems have no choice but to come. The whole world might be able to solve everything else, but they cannot solve spiritual problems. Therefore, “Make an Ark.” This means Christ, right?

2. Mighty Men of Nephilim There is a second background. Looking at the Bible, the “mighty men” of Nephilim arose. Very powerful people of Nephilim began to arise. This is the second background. When you do an exorcism (Gut), power comes, right? But it becomes more difficult. If you continue idolatry, “something” arises. That becomes a bigger problem. So sin becomes rampant; because wrong people have power. What happens when bad people have power? They harass weak people. Simply put, because they are seized by Satan, they have power. With this, they committed all sorts of crimes.

3. Hell Background More importantly is the third. It looks like they are living on this earth, but they are inside the background of Hell. There are these three backgrounds. There can be no peace. They cannot live well. Even if they live well, it gets harder. Even though they studied a lot, it gets harder. These are the three illnesses. Therefore, a person who is saved and goes to Heaven is currently inside the background of the Heavenly Throne. Going to Heaven after death? That is not an accurate statement. You enjoy the blessings of Heaven and then naturally go. People who go to Hell enjoy the background of Hell and then go to Hell. They go after doing Satan’s errands.

Some people might easily say, “Why go to Hell when they didn’t do anything wrong?” In Matthew 25:41, Hell is ultimately the place to lock up Satan forever.

1) Matthew 25:41: Then, a person going to Hell is a child of Satan, so they have no choice but to go. You don’t go to Hell because you have many sins; you go because you could not solve the problem of sin. We don’t go to Heaven because we didn’t sin; we have been forgiven of our sins. So it is miserable. The background itself is Hell. The background itself is Satan.
2) [Crime]: It looks like they have power for a moment, but all crimes happen here.
2) Serving Satan: Because they serve Satan all their lives, they must go. Jesus said it like this:
3) John 8:44: “Your father the devil.” Not even a friend. Father. To whom did He say this? He said it to the Jews who were attending church but did not know the Gospel. They were doing religious life well, but “Your father the devil.” Therefore, Satan is only afraid of Christ. He is not afraid of your money. He does not fear the skills you have. He fears Christ. “There is no other name under heaven given to us by which we must be saved.”

▣ Conclusion
Therefore, we must open the Era of the Three Courtyards and inform people quickly.

1. Three Courtyards: You know them, right? The Courtyard of the Gentiles (Multi-ethnic), the Courtyard of the Children (Remnants), and the Courtyard of Prayer (Healing). We must make them.
2. Fri-Sat-Sun: We must open the Fri-Sat-Sun era. Now, taking the Remnants, what must we make them into? We must make them people of prayer who survive wherever they go. The Fri-Sat-Sun era. The whole world is dying from spiritual problems.
3. Meditation Era: So, open the Meditation Era that heals that. This is next week’s lesson.

Please summarize this simply and send it to those who need it. That person will be surprised when they see it. Perhaps their own problem is caught in here. From this, a huge change begins to happen. There are many such people. But especially, there are many among celebrities. There is a reason. The angel in charge of praise fell, so it has no choice but to be so. So it is especially common among people who are said to be wise. They are hiding it. Because they are hiding it, if you have the message, the time schedule to save them will come.

I will conclude. If anyone says, “I have this kind of spiritual problem,” do not try to solve it. Completely imprint it as the Watchtower, Journey, and Guidepost given by Christ. It will disappear. In fact, even if you are caught in a special illness, you can fight and win. The question is how to win. You must restore all fundamental strength for both the body and the spirit. Is that possible? It is possible. Therefore, gain the greatest strength on Sunday.

Today again, we offer the World Missions Worship together. It is a concluding message. You must take that with you. Finally, what will you take? You must take it.

Prayer. May today be a day of gaining strength all day long. May it be a day of solving the spiritual fundamentals all day long. May it be a day where my soul and body gain fundamental strength. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Take the Authority of the King, Prophet and Priest to the Field

2026.04.26 Sunday 1st Service
United Missions Festival Sunday
「Take the Authority of the King, Prophet and Priest to the Field」 (1 Peter 2:9)


Thank you. There is the Word of God that even an unsaved person may read. However, there is the Word of God that only saved people see. The blood covenant, and various things like these, are things only saved people know.

1. The Last Words Jesus Gave to Those Who Will Evangelize the World (World Mission Conference Message)
The last words Jesus gave right now were given to those who will evangelize the world.

1) Promise to be with us with all authority in heaven and on earth, the authority of the throne, and the authority of the name of Christ
So he said he would be with us with all authority in heaven and on earth. Because that is what is needed. He will be with us with the authority of the throne. Pray in my name. He promised to be with us with the authority of the name of Christ.

2) Turning points — those prepared coming from 15 nations (the upper room of Mark), those scattered (Antioch), the hidden card (Rome)
And a very important turning point appears. The Word is fulfilled in the upper room of Mark, and there 15 nations had gathered. Those prepared, those made ready. And then a decisive turning point comes. It begins in Antioch. Those scattered. Later they go all the way to Rome together with the team of Paul. It was called the hidden card. In fact, all three of them are hidden cards. Mission is an enormous secret and an enormous work of history. Well then, what I have just spoken about is the message of this World Mission Conference.

2. How shall we convey this?
Now, how shall we convey this? Now we must grasp the final covenant.

1) We must convey Christ accurately.
The most important thing is to convey the gospel accurately. We must convey Christ accurately. If that is not done, it is a serious matter. Who is Christ? Is that not something we must convey?

(1) The true King who completely broke the authority of Satan
He is the true King who completely broke the authority of Satan.

(2) The true Priest who blocks disaster
Disaster cannot be avoided. He is the true Priest who blocks disaster.

(3) The true Prophet who leads us to God
We cannot be saved on our own. And so he is the true Prophet who leads us to God. The combination of these three words is what is called Christ. Telling people this is the gospel. If this is not told, it is of no use at all.

2) Ambassadors of Christ — Christ entrusted this work to us and departed.
And so Christ entrusted this work to us and departed. He entrusted it to the missionaries and departed. And so we are ambassadors of Christ. There was a time when our country was extremely poor. There was a time when we lived like those 5,000 tribes. There was a time when people wore straw sandals because there were no shoes. There was a time when there were no cars, and oxen and horses pulled carts. I grew up seeing that. But our country was oppressed by powerful nations on the left and on the right. China interfered, Russia interfered, Japan interfered — they told us to do this and that. And they did as they pleased with our country. When our country was in a wretched state, that was when the missionaries came in. The missionaries came in and did two things. They preached the gospel. And the other thing — they let the world know how wretchedly Korea was being treated. Those people who came to Korea and left said something. In common. Korea is a country that will evangelize the world. And they all said it in common. Whether those who came and died, or those who left — they all said Korea is a country that will evangelize the world. And so he sent us as ambassadors of Christ.

3. How should we act as we go as ambassadors of Christ?
Now, how should we act as we go as ambassadors of Christ? The answer to that was given today.

1) Proclaim this light — because Christ came as light and people are dying in darkness
Because Christ came as light, we are to proclaim this light. Here it importantly says to proclaim the light. This means to convey it. This is the part you must now hold onto and go. Because people are dying in darkness, proclaim this light.

2) Prophesy the Word. Prophesy life — because I have no ability to give the Word and life myself
Ezekiel, he said. Can these bones live? Ezekiel answered well. He did not answer, “They can live.” He did not answer, “They cannot live.” He said, “The Lord the Lord can do it.” Then God said this. He did not say, “Preach the Word.” He did not say, “Breathe life into them.” He said, “Prophesy the Word.” “Prophesy life.” You and I have no such authority or ability to preach the Word, to give life. There is no need to be discouraged. It was never there to begin with. Prophesy in the name of Christ. Proclaim it. Just do this. You must have conviction.

3) Proclaim the light in the name of Christ — because Christ finished it and told us to pray in his name
No need to slaughter an ox. Pray in my name. No need to slaughter a sheep. Pray in my name. No need to offer a sacrifice. Pray in my name. It has been finished. And so in the name of Christ we proclaim the light.

▣ Introduction — The Reason
We must first know the reason.

1. People completely caught in Satan’s 12 strategies, the church deceived by Satan’s 5 strategies
People right now do not know. Because the world has not taught them — it is only in the Bible. It has not been taught. They are completely caught in Satan’s 12 strategies. They cannot escape. The church too is deceived by Satan and caught in 5 strategies of Satan. Jesus even said to someone who seemed to believe well that there is a bartizan of Satan inside you. That is astonishing. Also, they are serving the devil who appears completely like a god of this world, one who loves the world fully. And he said that to someone who seemed to believe well. “Your father the devil.” They believe in the god of this world more than in God. Even going to Cornelius’s house to eat — why did he eat there? This is the church. “No, even if you are saved, you still have to keep the law of the Jews.” This was something Peter said to Paul. Why was that? The church does not follow the atmosphere. The atmosphere had become that way. You must be careful. The church does not follow public opinion. Public opinion had become that way. When asked why he went to Cornelius’s house, Peter should have rebuked it loudly. Is that not right? Did not Christ say to go to all peoples? Did he not say he would be with us with all authority in heaven and on earth? We are all in darkness right now.

2. Spiritual ignorance, spiritual incompetence, spiritual problems — proclaim the name of Christ, the light (Acts 4:12).
Everything is there, yet they are spiritually ignorant. Everything is there. Things will continue to develop going forward. There is a great deal, yet there is only no spiritual strength. Spiritual incompetence. And so they are caught in absolutely unsolvable spiritual problems. Proclaim the light there. Because it is not your own strength, proclaim it in the name of Christ. It is not the missionaries’ strength. Proclaim it in the name of Christ. There is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. Christ — this word is no ordinary word. Should we not know Christ in order to preach the gospel? If you know Christ, darkness collapses. Is that not right? I know President Lee Jae-myung. Is that not right? President Lee Jae-myung does not know me. Why? Because we have never met. We have never been connected. Knowing someone like that is not really knowing. Knowing each other, talking with each other, helping each other — that is knowing. The fact that Christ is the answer for you — Satan knows it. He also knows when it has not happened. God knows it even better. And so we proclaim it.

3. The whole world is becoming a psychiatric ward, a battlefield — so proclaim Christ who came as light, and prophesy (John 1:11).
Why? The whole world will become a psychiatric ward. The whole world becomes a battlefield. It is darkness, darkness. Jesus prophesied in the last days. Only the Bible gives the precise answer. As to why things have become this way. And so in John 1:11, Christ came as light. Proclaim this light. Prophesy this light. Darkness collapses. Darkness is invisible to the eye. It is pitch black. No matter how much you try to get rid of it, it does not go away. It does not disappear through effort. Darkness disappears immediately when light enters. Spiritually, this darkness disappears immediately when the light of Christ shines.

※ Because you are ambassadors of Christ, on the path you travel, the authority of Satan, disaster, and hell collapses.
You must carry this as you go. King, prophet, priest. On the path you travel, Satan will be bound. Why? Because you are an ambassador. On the path you travel, disaster collapses. The authority of that hell is bound. That is certain, is it not? Convey this light.

▣ Main — To whom must it be conveyed?
Then let us enter the Main and look briefly. How, and to whom must it be conveyed?

1. Shine this light on me first. — Pray so that the 7.7.7 prayer comes upon me
First I must shine the light on the darkness within me. On myself. I pray most of all for the 7.7.7 prayer to come upon me. What does it mean for it to come upon me?

1) Genesis 1:3 — the light of creation
In Genesis 1:3, as the light of creation. When you receive Christ, as the light of creation. There was a person who was about to die from mental illness, and the moment he received Christ, it was finished. That person had only been a believer for a few days. It ends right away. People who have been like that too long cannot receive Christ easily, so it does not end. In fact, they cannot receive him. And so the light of creation must shine upon me.

2) Isaiah 60:1-12 — the light of restoration
It is Isaiah 60:1-2. The light of restoration shines upon us. This has come upon me. Who is Christ? He is the one who comes to me as the light of creation. Christ is the one who comes as the light that restores my incompetence.

3) Matthew 5:13-16 — the light of identity
Matthew 5:13-16 — he restored to us the light of identity. Identity. He did not say “become the light of the world” — he said “you are the light of the world.” You must believe this. When you believe, darkness trembles. When you do not believe, darkness does not fear you at all. You are the light of the world. And so the remnants think: ah, I have within me the light of God, of Christ, for the world. Knowing that, just quietly pray at school and see what happens. People who are to be saved will come looking for you. If that does not happen, go visit a very famous demon-possessed fortune teller. The moment they see you, they will know immediately. This light is frightening. Because you have heard it so many times, you do not know it. A person who was in that darkness just received the name of Christ — a work of history has happened. In a remote place, someone is just praying, whatever it is — they are trembling, the person is completely strange. Christ has been proclaimed to that person, and a work of history has happened.

4) 1 Peter 2:9 — the light of authority
Today, 1 Peter 2:9 is the light of authority. Take this light of authority given from above and go. First of all, to me.

2. Proclaim this light to the world.
The second one. Now proclaim this light to the world. What kind of world?

1) Proclaim to those afflicted with the Nephilim disease (Acts 16:16-18, Acts 3:6, John 17:11-12).
Proclaim to those afflicted with the Nephilim disease. Paul commanded, “In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, I command you, you impure spirit, come out!” — and it left. Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” Pray an important prayer. The answer will certainly come. People do not believe in the enormity of that name. It was called the name of the Lord. John 17:11-12.

2) Shine the light of Christ on those afflicted with the disease of the 3 groups that began in Genesis chapters 3, 6, and 11.
Those afflicted with the 3 groups disease are still continuing in it right now. The 3 groups disease right now is not the fault of the 3 groups. It originally started in Genesis chapter 3. It is not America’s fault. It started in Genesis chapter 6. It started in Genesis chapter 11. And it is continuing right now. Shine the light of Christ there — that is what I am saying. To the world.

3) Proclaim the light of Christ in the name of Jesus Christ to the 5,000 tribes plunged into darkness through idol worship.
And there is more. The 5,000 tribes who have come to be in darkness through idol worship are completely in the dark. I do not know about now, but when I went to Taiwan, there were idols in every home. Those in Taiwan, check for yourselves. I gathered about ten children and asked those who cannot sleep properly, who are sleep-paralyzed, who are tormented by demons to raise their hands. It was 8 or 9 of them. Among the 5,000 tribes there is no need to even say it. It is serious. Nothing else works there. Shine the light of Christ. Proclaim that too. It is simple. In the name of Jesus Christ.

3. Spread this light to the next generation throughout the whole world.
Also, spread this light to the next generation throughout the whole world.

1) Create three courtyard. A great road will open.
And so the instruction is to create three courtyards. Going forward, when three courtyards are established, a great road will open.

2) Create the three-day weekend age and change what has been imprinted.
And so create the three-day weekend age and quickly change what has been imprinted. They cannot even pray. They do not even know how to pray. It must be changed quickly. Evangelism? They cannot do it. It must be changed. 70% of churches in South Korea are financially dependent. They are not doing evangelism. Churches in America are closing. Disasters are abundant. It must be changed. The three-day weekend age. All that needs to happen is to change what has been imprinted. Cancer treatment — is it possible? Yes. Just change what has been imprinted. Mental illness treatment — is it possible? Yes. Just change what has been imprinted. And so quickly open the three-day weekend age and change our children. Dozens of called workers from Incheon are coming to our church to worship, and I met them briefly today. Tell the church, tell the administration office — without worrying about anything, freely bring children, train them in the three-day weekend age, and do it freely.

3) Create the holy meditation age so that they can survive wherever they go.
Our children must survive wherever they go. The holy meditation age. Do these three things, I am saying. This is conveying the light there. Darkness — there is nothing else to it. If caught by Satan, can anything work? There is no way to avoid disaster. No matter how powerful a nation, there is no way to avoid it. As for undeveloped nations, there is no need to even mention them. When you look closely, the background is terrifying. Proclaim the light. Prophesy this light in the name of Jesus Christ.

▣ Conclusion
Let me conclude.

1. Every day receive and every day convey the bartizan, journey, and guidepost of Christ.
Going forward the age of remote work will come. This means working from home. Also, an age of non-face-to-face delivery and delivery services will come. Things will continue to develop professionally. Also, an age of non-face-to-face finance will come. What will happen? Spiritual problems will become serious. It is unpredictable. We cannot even know which jobs will disappear or change. And so missionaries and our remnants — every day receive the 7.7.7 through prayer. What will happen? Amazing things will occur. And so convey this bartizan of the throne, the journey, and the guidepost. That is conveying the light. Because the light is Christ. Every day receive and every day convey the bartizan, journey, and guidepost of Christ.

2. With this, find the 7 points.
With this, find the 7 points.

3. Unconditionally make it 300%.
And what else? Unconditionally make it 300%. Especially the remnants. Our young adults and church leaders are busy. Everything must be done at 300%. If it cannot be 300%, do not start. A laborer came to Korea to earn money. A foreign laborer. I roughly checked how much he received — they said 700,000 won at that time. He did not spend it and saved it up to go back to his hometown. This person received the gospel. Having received the gospel, change began to happen. He changed all his thinking completely. He enrolled in RTS. Why? Ah, I must know this gospel. He prayed and worked so hard that he speaks Korean better than I do. And evangelism fruit is happening enormously right now. Because it is a Muslim country, they arrested him intending to kill him. He was not afraid at all. He contacted me at that time. “Pastor, I am all right. Do not worry. I am okay with dying. Bangladesh needs Christ.” That is astonishing. People like this are rising up right now. I quietly thought about it. Wow, can someone really become like that under such bad conditions? Even those with everything in place cannot do it, yet these people have nothing in place. That is what is called 300%. That person prepared 300% in Korea. Returning to his own country, a work of history happened.

※ Imprint the authority of heaven and earth in your soul, the authority of the throne in your life, and the authority of the name of Christ in your future.
Imprint the authority of heaven and earth in your soul. Imprint the authority of the throne in your life. That comes first. Imprint the guidepost of the throne and the authority of the name of Christ in your future. This year many thankful works of history have happened. Including our church, many church leaders gave offerings and prayed, and much fruit has come about. Because of the war, airfare has risen several times over. Even so, more called workers came than last year. As I watch what God is doing, I am truly grateful and give glory to God. Missionaries, as you return, I hope you will be the key figures who absolutely establish the bartizan. Then you absolutely travel the journey. Then, even when you return, you establish the absolute guidepost that continues. I will pray.

Prayer. We give thanks to God. Let us enjoy what God has given us. Let us restore what Christ, who saves the world, has given us. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

 

Christ’s Final Mission

2026.04.26 Sunday 2nd Service
「Christ’s Final Mission」 (Ac 1:1-14)


I am grateful. This is the last mission of Jesus Christ.

「Last mission of JX」
Now you must go back and do ministry, but there are a few things to think about. We hold onto the Word and pray — but how is the Word to be fulfilled, and how should prayer be answered? That is something to think about a bit. The answer is to be within the Word and within prayer. How the answer comes is something God will do. There is always an order. The throne, the kingdom, the works of the kingdom. There is an order. The scale and speed of it is something God regulates. Many people know quite a lot that is not the gospel. Something that cannot happen — it truly is a miracle — they say it happened that way. Of course, the parting of the Red Sea and the parting of the Jordan are things that cannot happen, yet they did part. It is the same with academics. “I am so fortunate that God made things go so well for me.” That is a grateful thing to say — but that is not it. You must be 300% prepared. That is what God has given. It is the same with your health. There may be times when you feel okay and times when you feel better, but we must heal the root cause. Experiences? Do not try too hard to have them. Not many people have succeeded that way. If God gives you an experience, then have it at that time. But to be within what is being accomplished is the best thing. Many people think they must receive a special answer, but to be within what God is working out is the best thing. People who truly enjoy answered prayer are unrelated to whether an answer comes or does not come. Because the Lord is my shepherd, I lack not even a single thing. There is no stopping that. I will die if I die. That is the real answer. Even just understanding the Word brings history. And so the greatest answer is for me to be within the blessing of what is being accomplished that God gives. This is to say that I am within what God is doing. There is only one urgent thing. I must make effort, and there is only one urgent thing. The only urgent thing is to save people who are dying in destruction if we do not go now. How to do our work well — that too is important, but the important thing is to do well ordinarily and then save the urgent person. Think carefully about this — saving those dying in destruction is the urgent thing. Nothing else is urgent. My affairs God is in charge of. That is how it has been for us throughout our lives. Making what I do into 300% is faith. That is the answer. Joseph had expertise. He saved the field. He saved the future. That is 300%. David honed the highest skills. But that was not David’s purpose. David’s purpose was future world evangelization. So, while in his situation, he prepared many things — skill, praise, poetry. And so in a certain sense, believing is the answer.

Introduction

1. Authority of heaven, Earth
Christ said he had all authority in heaven and on earth. He said he would always be with us. At that time two kinds of people appeared. Those who doubted appeared, and those who worshiped appeared. Faith — that is the answer. That is the blessing. Jesus made a promise. Since world evangelization cannot happen by mere strength alone, he gave all authority in heaven and on earth completely. He promised to be with us. This Word coming upon me is the answer. This time many missionaries are receiving answers and going.

2. Authority of Throne
Since it cannot be done by our strength, he promised for forty days that he would be with us and give authority through the power of the throne. This itself is the blessing.

3. Authority of The Name
By that name before which darkness trembles. Believing this is the blessing. If you do not believe, it is of no use at all. We have nothing urgent.

[Main] Bartizan Journey Guidepost
Christ erected the bartizan for us. As I prayed, it became 7 bartizans. Christ explained the journey in full. And he explained guideposts here and there — Jerusalem, Samaria, the ends of the earth. This is the urgent thing. Nothing else is urgent.

1. Best Time
So from now, have the best time of your life. What kind of thing is the best time? I have thought about it.

1) 1:3
It says that Jesus spent forty days explaining the works of the kingdom of God — then could we be indifferent to that? What is this? I had this time. And that was forty years ago when I was an associate pastor. The church? No gospel. Fighting every day. Making enemies of one another. Even using God’s Word to kill people rather than to save them. That is why it was such fierce fighting. At that time I was thinking wrongly. I went early in the morning for forty days to pray, taking notes as I prayed. I prayed for God to quickly send me somewhere good. I prayed that I could not stay in this kind of church. That was my prayer. After doing that for forty days I realized it was a wrong prayer. Do what you must do now. It was utterly foolish. I was missing everything I had to do right then and worrying about the future, wondering what to do. At that time an epochal answer came to me. In the midst of all the fighting, the church members reported to the senior pastor. “Pastor, our church has many people with a calling.” I will raise up those with a calling. I will make those with a calling into evangelists. Let us start an evangelism school at our school, at our church. I will do the training. The pastor said okay. There truly were many people with a calling. I had thought there were only people who were fighting, but once I held what God wanted, truly called people emerged. With that blessing I went to Yeongdo and started with the evangelism school there too. When pastors gathered at first, I started with the evangelism school. When called workers emerged overseas, I started with the evangelism school. It is the best schedule of my life. That is what I think. Until when? Until the mission becomes visible. The answer is important, but until the mission becomes visible.

2) 2:1(Always)
The second one. How did this answer come? “When the day of Pentecost had fully come.” That is how it came. Like a fool I asked why he had sent me here. The Jews spent all their time on three festival events. Looking at what happened in the early church opened my eyes. The background of salvation, the Holy Spirit, and the throne — it is day by day. More than that. Always. I came to realize that. Someone like me with no ability. This ability must always be in me. And what can I teach the congregation? If I go into any specialized field, I have to learn everything from you. Then what am I supposed to teach? The answer came. This is the real answer. And then at the ninth hour of prayer — it just poured out.

3) 3 concentration, 24, 25, 00, 2:9-11, 2:17-18, 2:41, 2:42, 2:46-47
And so I started first with the 3 concentrations. When you wake up in the morning, do not set a long time. Then you cannot pray. Just continuously. Because you go around with your mouth open, you breathe with your lungs when you wake up in the morning. And your brain has already sustained much damage. It must be healed. For several hours. Breathing deeply for several hours, you must restore everything through all kinds of prayer. Your lungs are shrinking. The hormones in your body are changing. And in the daytime, what is it? The people you meet are a time of blessing. When I look at people through the eyes of evangelism, that person looks extremely precious to me. An elder looks precious. That is the blessing of the daytime hours. When I look at someone who has done wrong, I do not see them with hatred but with pity. I think I hope that person will go straight and do well. An elder must be able to look at a pastor and see something precious. When pastors look at church leaders, they should not look at their shortcomings but see their strengths and what is precious in them. Among what we hear, see, and say, tremendous blessings are contained. Then at night 300% comes out naturally. It does not come out because you have been looking wrongly. Joseph — if he goes to Egypt gnashing his teeth the way you might, it is over. Those who pray know. This is the schedule going to fulfill God’s absolute plan. Pastor Shin Joon-ho’s father was a very important person, but he passed away as he was old. He passed away not long ago. I could not go to pay my respects. When Pastor Shin Joon-ho came, I did not give him a condolence gift. I gave him a congratulatory gift. Congratulating him on his entry into the kingdom of heaven. Because? He lived enjoying the throne and then went to heaven. Blessings are contained within every moment of life. Clerks fighting among themselves and doing that kind of thing — that is complete rubbish. Where is there time to fight? You absolutely must do this. Because you truly must save the world. Conflict and such things — there is none. Did David have conflict because of Saul? As I prayed like this, finally 24, 25, eternity began to come into view. Then look at this completely — in 15 countries, the people God has prepared are visible. There is nothing to worry about. The future is visible. “Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.” And then 3,000 disciples rose up. From that point worship comes alive. Those whose worship is not coming alive need to be a bit concerned. “Following the apostles’ teaching” — this means following the Word. How precious those people seated in front are — I am so grateful. “And fellowship” — when I think about being saved, I am just grateful no matter how many times I think of it. “Breaking of bread” — and then there is nothing that cannot be done through prayer. “Devoting themselves to prayer.” That is worship. Right now I am talking about worship. From this point the Word is fulfilled day by day. Day by day in the temple, day by day in homes.

2. Field(works of God)
The second one. Finally, when you go to the field, you can see God at work.

1) 3:1-12
Before, you looked but could not see. It is when these eyes are opened that you can see. What? The lame man sitting at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. He was there before too. After receiving the fullness of the Holy Spirit and grace, when Peter opened these eyes, he could see. There is a neighborhood that all the people of Jerusalem hate the most. That became visible.

2) 8:4-8
Samaria. Right now it sounds ordinary to you, but that Samaria is a region of absolute sworn enemies to the Jerusalem Jews. He went there. While going along the road, the Spirit of the Lord — this begins to open up. The Holy Spirit of the Lord came to Philip.

3) 8:26-40
The Ethiopian eunuch had been prepared. Even right now, while holding Sunday worship, we must worship within prayer. You must not worship while your mind is on something else. What kind of worship is that? It is just chanting.

4) 13:1-12
And then look at this. God had prepared a figure called Paul. And what kind of field did these people see? Everything was completely prepared. They saw the field of a shaman — because of this an entire town was plunged into darkness — they saw that.

5) 16:6-40
Looking at Acts chapter 16, the door of evangelism was blocked for Paul. To someone with eyes to see the field, even this is not being blocked. To Macedonia. Going there too, he went looking for a place of prayer in the field. There he met Lydia. After meeting Lydia and the mission home starting there, he cast out the demon from the demon-possessed woman. The merchants sued because of that. A work broke out in the prison. Verse 40. You must see what God is doing at work in the field. Believing in God? That is easy. Not believing in God? That is impossible. I have been saved? That is natural. I have not been saved? That cannot be done. Where does this get you?

6) 17:1-9
He was led to a region where the most important road to Rome passes through. To Thessalonica. That is how God led him. And then he met a complete guardian who would help Paul do mission for his entire life.

7) 18:1-4
Corinth. The couple Priscilla and Aquila. The moment these people met Paul, they staked their lives. On the path our missionaries take, figures who stake their lives to raise up evangelists will appear. This is not all there is.

3. Future(prepare)
It is about seeing the future. It is about seeing what God has prepared. This becomes visible.

1) Romans 16:25-27
And so when people came flooding in as in Romans chapter 16, God gave what was completely hidden. Hidden people. Hidden things. The hidden card that came out in the message this time.

2) 17:1, 18:4, 19:8
And look at this. To the synagogue. The future is there. Because the future is in the children.

3) 28:30-31(AD.70)
And what happened? In the last chapter of Acts, chapter 28, no one could hinder the Word of God on the path Paul traveled. The Word cannot be stopped. The gospel cannot be stopped. At this time these things happened. Now do you understand why he went into the synagogues? Now do you understand why the church leaders of Romans chapter 16 were prepared? At this time Israel collapsed. The remnants now began to scatter to the world. At that time the 7 points emerged. The remnant, the pilgrim — all of it comes.

Conclusion

1. Time of Evangelist
Have the time of the evangelist. The time of gaining strength. Eyes that change the field. You cannot change the field itself. Eyes that change the field. Only then does the answer come.

2. Today
Now having the time of the evangelist, do not miss today. You arrived at Potiphar’s house as a slave — create the greatest masterpiece there. Do not miss today. While David was a shepherd boy, he found all the blessings there. Praise, poetry, skill — he found them all.

3. Now
Do not miss right now. Right now. At any time. What kind of place is this? This is not a place where members of the National Assembly hold meetings. Assembly member meetings are precious too, but this is not that kind of place. The ambassadors of Christ who must evangelize the world are gathered here. Enjoy it right now. Right now. When discouraging thoughts come, gain strength right now. When you are about to be shaken, gain strength at that moment. Not tomorrow. Right now. That is how we go. You need not worry about the future. God has the future prepared. World evangelization will certainly happen. It has never once been stopped. Even if everyone fails to do it, Luther alone being raised up means it happens. When Israel suffered seven disasters, through the remnants, through one or two people, everything was restored. The gospel has never been interrupted. And so every day you must gain strength. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ. I will pray.

Prayer. We give thanks to God. We thank you for calling us as ambassadors of Christ. Let us serve with the posture of a servant. Let us be devoted to saving the whole world. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

 

Proclaiming the Gospel: How Do You Begin?

Matthew 10:5-15. These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans. Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel. As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’ Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.

“Do not get any gold or silver or copper to take with you in your belts— 10 no bag for the journey or extra shirt or sandals or a staff, for the worker is worth his keep. 11 Whatever town or village you enter, search there for some worthy person and stay at their house until you leave. 12 As you enter the home, give it your greeting. 13 If the home is deserving, let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to you. 14 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet. 15 Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.


God has chosen youyes, you—to save lives through the power of the gospel. This is not a calling reserved only for pastors, missionaries, or theologians. It is the mandate given to every believer. But how should you carry out the task of proclaiming the gospel? Jesus gives us the answer.

Begin close to home. Jesus instructed His disciples to seek out “the lost sheep of the house of Israel” (Mt 10:5–6). Begin with those nearest to them, those already within reach.

Look around your life. Is there someone you know who is discouraged, drifting, or drowning in despair? Is there a friend wrestling with doubt, struggling to believe what they once held dear? Is there someone who has quietly walked away from the faith because they were wounded by the church?

These are your lost sheep. Do not wait for them to come to you. Go to them. Sit with them. Encourage them with the living Word of God, which alone has the power to revive what has become dead.

When you speak, proclaim nothing but the “kingdom of heaven” (Mt 10:7). This is the central message of the gospel. Do not dilute it with anything. The kingdom of heaven is the only answer.

When someone genuinely believes the gospel that Jesus is the Christ, the kingdom of God comes upon them, and everything changes. The sins of the past are forgiven. The anxieties of the present are turned into thanksgiving. The uncertainties of the future are secured in the hands of God.

The Holy Spirit takes up permanent residence within them (1 Corinthians 3:16). No philosophy, therapy, or human achievement can accomplish what the gospel does. Nothing else will change a person’s eternal destiny.

You are not alone in this work. As you proclaim the gospel, God Himself works alongside you, confirming His Word through signs that accompany it. bringing healing and restoration (Matthew 10:8, Mark 16:19-20). Don’t worry about the results; you just need to be faithful. Step out in faith, and watch what God does.

Jesus was direct: “Do not get any gold or silver or copper to take with you in your belts” (Mt 10:9). God takes care of His evangelists. Those who carry the gospel are not to be driven by financial ambition or personal gain. The message of grace must never be exploited for profit. Trust that the God who sends you will also provide for you.

Not everyone will receive your message. Jesus knew this when He sent His disciples out. Do not be surprised, and do not be discouraged when people turn away. Remember this truth: “All who were appointed for eternal life believed” (Ac 13:48). Salvation ultimately rests not on the eloquence of your words, but on the sovereignty of God. He is the Lord of the harvest. Trust Him with the results. Your calling is to sow faithfully; His responsibility is to bring the harvest in.

As you go, you will carry both joys and sorrows—doors opened and slammed shut, lives transformed and hearts hardened. Through it all, commit everything into the hands of your Father. Jesus promised that the peace you carry as you proclaim the gospel of peace will return to you (Matthew 10:13). You cannot give what you do not have. You have the only life-saving message of the gospel that Jesus is the Christ. Rest in Him. Let His peace guard your heart so that you can continue to pour it out for others.

Above all, never forget where you began: you were lost, and you were found. You were dead, and you were made alive. You received the gift of salvation not because you earned it, but because of grace,  the unmerited favor of God. “Freely you have received; freely give” (Matthew 10:8). Let that be the background in which you go. Not reluctantly but with open hands and an overflowing heart.


Prayer. Father, I thank You for calling me into Your harvest field. What an undeserved privilege to carry a message that changes everything! Fill me with Your Spirit. Give me eyes to see the lost sheep around me and courage to proclaim Your kingdom without compromise. Help me follow the guidance of the Holy Spirit every step of the way. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

The Qualifications of the Evangelist

Matthew 10:1-4. Jesus called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out impure spirits and to heal every disease and sickness. These are the names of the twelve apostles: first, Simon (who is called Peter) and his brother Andrew; James son of Zebedee, and his brother John; Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus; Simon the Zealot and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him.


Evangelists are those whom God calls according to His sovereign purpose—the proclamation of the gospel and the ministry of healing. They are not self-appointed, nor are they selected based on human qualifications, but on God’s grace. To them, God entrusts authority over the kingdom of darkness so that the work of Christ may be revealed through their lives. Jesus said,

For you did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you so that you might go and bear fruit—fruit that will last—and so that whatever you ask in my name the Father will give you” (John 15:16).

Before sending them into the world, God first calls them into fellowship with Himself. The priority is not doing, but being with Him:

He appointed twelve that they might be with him and that he might send them out to preach and to have authority to drive out demons” (Mark 3:13–15).

Jesus did not choose the influential, the wealthy, or the religious elite, such as the Pharisees or scribes. Instead, He called ordinary people from Galilee—men without status in the eyes of the world. This was not because weakness is required for evangelism, but because God’s power is revealed apart from human boasting. Paul explains this divine wisdom clearly:

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God…” (1 Corinthians 1:18–25).

God deliberately chose what the world considers weak and foolish so that no one may boast before Him. He saves through the preaching of the gospel itself—what the world dismisses as weakness is, in fact, the very power of God.

Therefore, God has never relied on those who treat the gospel as something secondary or intellectual. Instead, He delights to save the world through the “foolishness of preaching”—the simple proclamation of Christ.

If you feel weak, do not be discouraged. Rather, learn to boast in your weakness. For it is precisely there that Christ’s power rests on you. When you are weak in yourself, you discover true strength in Him (2 Corinthians 12:1–10).

Trust the One whose “foolishness” is wiser than all human wisdom, and whose “weakness” is stronger than all human strength. God has called you with eternity in mind. Though you may feel lacking in many ways, Christ who lives in you is sufficient, complete, and perfect. Be assured that the good work God began in you will continue until it is fully completed on the day of Christ Jesus (Philippians 1:6).

God uses those who hunger for His Word and the gospel—those who share the mind of Christ Jesus, whose hearts are broken over what breaks God’s heart, and who are willing to follow Christ to the end. He uses those who consider their lives worth nothing compared to the calling of finishing the race and completing the task entrusted to them (Acts 20:24).

If you have received and believed the gospel as the ultimate answer to your life, then you are God’s chosen instrument to proclaim the name of Jesus Christ to all nations. Your response is simple yet eternal: answer His urgent call and follow Him.


Prayer. Father, I thank You for choosing me as Your instrument for the gospel. I am weak and lacking in every way, but I will gladly boast in my weakness so that the power of Christ may be revealed in me. Take my life and use it for Your purpose. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
