237 Missions Dept. Devotional Worship
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-8

Thank you. If we are going to do 237 missions, there must be a new start. Because if it is not that, it will not work.

「A New Start」 (Acts 1:1–8)
Jesus Himself spoke this start. Only in this way can we save the 237.

▣ Introduction
There is something you must hold on to here today.

1. Worship
We offer worship. When we offer this worship, almost everything important comes out, but there are hardly any people who truly understand this. When you worship, you must gain answers through the Word. And that must be imprinted in you today. You must definitely have that time. You hardly ever have it. You have the opposite. You just talk about people and absolutely do not have it.
Our church is a little less like that, but back when I taught the middle and high school department, for middle and high school students, work did not get done because they were looking at girls and boys. They could not hear the message. I even gave an instruction. I said, “Have the boys and girls sit mixed together.” Worship does not happen. They just look to see whether someone came or not. Worship does not happen. Do church leaders worship? They do not. What has been imprinted—when you enjoy it for six days, it takes root. And when you finish again with Friday–Saturday–Sunday, you gain many answers and strength. You must restore worship first.

During the time of praise in worship, what kind of time is it? It is the time when the gate of heaven opens and darkness is broken. Right? The choir may do it not knowing, but we must know that and participate. When David praised, not only were the heavenly hosts mobilized, but the darkness upon King Saul was broken. Among these, the most important is the Word, of course. But it is not only the Word that is important. The Word must definitely be imprinted; you must obtain the answer, be imprinted, and be settled. Only then does this begin to take root during the six days. Then something tremendous happens.

Also, when the elders pray, what must you know at that time? The elders have the authority to bless in prayer. If possible, when you pray, it is fine at the beginning to confess and recite a Bible verse that I love. Some people keep teaching Scripture to God, continuously. That is not right, is it? When praying to God, you should not keep teaching God the Scripture. Like our elder earlier, confessing one verse of Scripture by which I received grace—about this much is very good. You may not believe it, but when you pray you have the authority to bless. So you pray that the Holy Spirit would come upon the choir. You pray that the Holy Spirit would come upon the preacher. You pray that the Holy Spirit would come upon the congregation abundantly. At that time. And for those who are sick and cannot attend. You pray for them. For our families and remnants who are far away overseas and for our members, you pray. That is prayer. Personal stories and political stories—God knows them all. Worship is offered to God.

And it is the same with praise, and when there is a special song, that too is worship. Then the person giving the special song should come out and just praise. Some people come out and give a greeting. Then the presider would also have to come out and greet and preside. The preacher would also have to come out and greet and preach. It would have to be like that, right? But it is worship. Also, the one who is in charge of presiding should not pray long because the one who will pray is sitting in the back. Just offer a brief opening prayer. For example, in the first service, Lee Seong-hun was a bit long. The person leading the service should only lead. Right?

And now we are talking about offering, but what do you think about offering in order to revive worship? I am someone who learned by watching offering. My mother is the one who does tithe and thanksgiving offering very devotedly—not merely strictly, but extremely devotedly—so I, watching that, at first was tempted. “Why does she do that?” But my mother is the poorest person, right? When the church was in difficulty, she gave even more. When you go to that mountain, there was one church building being constructed, and at that construction I was astonished. Because I lacked faith, for the first time I spoke ill of my mother. She gave more offering than the elders. A curse came out of my mouth then. Because I lacked faith. It is not like that. We four siblings grew up under our mother, and God never once made us sick. If there were only people like us, someone like Elder Im Gwon-il would have a hard time running a hospital. Because we would not go to the hospital. Not once has anyone come to our house asking for money. Until now, God has made me healthy to run about for world evangelization. I know this. So you must do that devoutly.
So originally, when it comes time for worship, we say we present the offering. Originally, each person would carry the offering and present it to God. Originally. But if we did that, time would all be gone, so we cannot. That is how important this is.

These days, churches around the world are struggling. First of all, there is a problem with exports. Also, due to war in the Middle East and Russia, there are difficulties in moving many goods for export and import. As this has happened, all construction and building in our Republic of Korea are difficult. Being placed in such a situation, now customs issues have also arisen. What should we do? Every church will be in difficulty. I also heard that. Then the answer is simple. As soon as I heard that, I reduced what I spend and give double offering. Our parents did that. Because I saw it, you must receive economic blessing in offering, right? People take offering lightly. I do not need an envelope. I prepare it at home in advance, devoutly, write on it, and bring it like that.
Because we lose all the blessing of worship. Then the Word is confirmed, you see. Then with that you quietly see it fulfilled throughout the six days.

2. Thanksgiving, happiness, strength
So with this, I am so thankful. Right? And when I pray, I must be happy. And if this (strength) has not been found, you must quickly find it. It is not something small.

3. Answer, imprinting, confirmation
You must certainly obtain answers through God’s Word. Usually people just worship and end it, but you must imprint this Word with even a short prayer. Pastors throughout the nation and world should not try to give “good sermons.” Why? Because you are not merchants. You must receive the sure Word God has given, have it imprinted, and imprint it. It must be confirmed. A tremendous Word begins to come alive.

Because we do not believe this (Introduction 1, 2, 3). Nowadays, because we do not believe, other kinds of evidence are starting to appear. Because we so, so do not believe and do not proclaim, some fortuneteller says, “Hey, you need to go to church.” Someone put a book on my desk. Now science is giving testimony. There is a life in which a person originally can avoid aging, they say. So originally eighty is the real beginning, they say. Moses did that, right? And Moses, as he aged, his eyes became brighter, it says. That is normal. We actually do not believe in God. Because we do not believe, now science has started to testify. Someone brought it. When we pray, they have begun to see what happens in the brain. When I went to Europe, a scientist brought a computer. “Evidence for pastor’s breathing prayer.” He laid out scientifically what happens in the brain when you pray with breathing. Because we do not believe. You must believe.

▣ Main Message: Discover five things.

1. The 60-day experience
You must do the 60-day experience once. You must do it once, must you not? There are things to be careful about when you do it. After doing this experience, if you are a normal person, there is no reaction at all. There is no answer. That is normal. Some people fainted while doing this. There is nothing bad about it. But I cannot necessarily say it is right. “I fainted”? There is a problem in the brain. “Nothing is wrong.” That is normal. For me, nothing was wrong. Even when I finished, there was no answer. But this changed my life. You must do it once. Some people say, “Ah, when I prayed, my whole body trembled.” There is nothing bad about it. But you should see it as having a bit of a stroke tendency.

1) Calvary (John 19:30)
We try to fix this one thing. At Calvary. He said, “It is finished.” If so, it is a new start. If I have a problem, that is a new start.
2) Mt Olive (Acts 1:3)
Mt Olive. Acts 1:3—He explained the matters of the Throne for forty days.
3) Mark’s upper room (Acts 2:1–13)
And with that covenant they came down to Mark’s upper room and experienced power. The three feasts. It is the Pentecost experience. You must do this. Once you do this and this taste is formed, from then on the second thing happens.

2. Turning points of the age
Discovery
This Main Message now—because God has prepared everything, you only need to discover. If you believe this (Introduction) fact and have experienced it once, from then on everything is discovery.

3. The way God guides
A third thing has come out. You see that God guides your entire path.

4. Mission turning point
He had prepared a mission turning point by which you can save the 237 nations and shows it to you.

5. God’s plan to save the world
Behind you there is clearly God’s plan prepared to save the world.
These (Main 5) five things—just discover them. If only worship comes alive for you, discovery begins.

2. Turning points of the age
1) Acts 11:19–30
What are the turning points of the age? Through Antioch, although persecution arose, the door of missions that becomes a turning point of the age began to open.
2) Acts 11:25–26
At this time, God sent to this place the person named Paul.
3) Acts 12:1–25

Persecution does not matter. That night, as they prayed, a great event broke out. King Herod died. The Herod who persecuted the Early Church died, and here a great turning point occurred.

3. The way God guides
1) Acts 13:1–4
From this point, what comes out? There is no need to worry at all about saving the 237 nations. The Holy Spirit will completely guide you. This is the answer. “I do not see it well”? Then do not go. Then what if I do not go? Just enjoy and do not go. In the past I prayed for the door to foreign study to open, but it did not open. Then do not go. Right? There is no need to force it. If I did not go, what did I do? I went to a better place. I went every day into the mission field, the evangelism field. I saw something greater. You—those who will save the 237—must in your lifetime obtain a clear answer once. Also, make up your mind once and start by yourself. Start by yourself. If you do it together, it is bothersome. By yourself. Then not only for yourself but also before others you will inevitably have something to testify. This answer must come. Like unbelievers you keep grabbing other things, and other answers come, right? Then if you cannot do world evangelization, it is unfair. Because you must keep suffering. Truly there are many such believers. When a problem comes, they are shaken.
Now, because a problem came, the scattered ones gathered. At that time they called a person named Paul. It is tremendous. Because of the proclamation of the Gospel, persecution arose, but they called Paul and began full-scale evangelism.
2) Acts 13:5–11
Where you go, darkness will be broken. That is enough, right?
3) Acts 13:12
And a system that does not shake is surely made and disciples arise. The proconsul became a disciple. No matter how good a program a church has, it is useless. You as one person must receive answers. Remnants, do not be deceived. When you go outside, no one can help you. You must go with this power to change the world. Do not be deceived.

In the past, when I was passing through six churches, I did not listen well to the adults. Why? Because you cannot do world evangelization. If I listen to that, I will also be ruined. Right? You cannot do world evangelization. Now you are gathering and opening the world door with us, are you not? If this individual cannot obtain the answer, others receive it, but I must always just watch like this. But the world is not easy. Remnants, go outside and see. It is piled up with lies and envy and jealousy. Without power here, you cannot overcome. You must go with the power to win without even fighting. Right? This (Main 3) thing happened wherever Joseph went. They could not kill Joseph. They sent him to be killed, but an even greater (Main 3) thing happened. You must go with this power. You must go with this.

4. Mission turning point
1) Acts 16:6–10
Perhaps on the path you go, there will be something like a door being blocked. This is a great turning point. To Macedonia.
2) Acts 16:15
When they went to Macedonia, a person prepared to help for a lifetime was there.
3) Acts 16:16–18
There a work of casting out demons took place. They changed the village itself. You must remember this.

5. God’s plan to save the world
What God has prepared for you is a plan to save the world.
1) Acts 19:21, 23:11, 27:24
How? “You must also see Rome.” Even if dragged into court, it does not matter. Be of good courage. “You must bear witness in Rome.” Even if you meet a storm, it is fine. “Paul, do not be afraid. You must stand before Caesar.” Why is that?
2) 237–5000
Because there are 237–5000 here. Our remnants in America only need to receive such “300%” answers that you are called for. Just this. Do not be deceived by other words. Must you not do the other things? They all follow.
3) TCK, CCK, NCK
Only then do you attach this with the remnants for you. With this, it is finished.

▣ Conclusion
Now, there is something you must remember at the end. Earlier I spoke looking at the multiethnic people.

Throne [ Isaiah 6:1–13 ] [ 1 Corinthians 3:16 ]
This word “throne” appears in two places. In Isaiah 6:1–13, we see the Lord with the heavenly hosts working from the heavenly Throne. Right? The power of this Throne comes upon us personally. “You are God’s temple,” it says. This place becomes the Throne. The connection of these two is a wondrous miracle of transformation. You must do this.

1. Recovery
So unconditionally in the morning, recover everything. If you are older and do not do this, dementia will come, dementia. You must recover. Someone I know was fine, but then dementia came. He talks nonsense, and now this person cannot be used. He talks nonsense. Once completely gone, we might care for him somewhere, but it has come on moderately, so he goes around saying strange things. “That elder is strange.” People have become like this now. Truly. What is so important? You must recover the strength God gives. Is there anything else important?

2. Confirmation
At noon, you must confirm. There are many things you hear and see. You must confirm. At this tim,e you must confirm God’s blessing and answer.

3. Answer
At night, what is it? You must find the answer in all the Word. If there is something I cannot do? Is there? If so, there is a true answer contained there. You can discover your prayer topic exactly. Because a problem has come. Right? There are many times when we hold God’s covenant incorrectly. But if there is something I cannot do? That is the exact covenant. Pray and you must make a resolution this week. And after that, you must have this (60-day experience) time. Unconditionally have it once.
So I grew up watching our parents. I seized the good things as evidence of faith. The wrong things I seized as prayer topics. Why was our nation at that time so poor and sick… I seized it as a prayer topic. The church was always divided and fighting. What is evangelism? They could not evangelize. As I made that my prayer topic, that answer came. If there is the most difficult thing in your life? That is your true prayer topic. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that this week would be a week in which you receive new strength and see new grace.

Prayer. We thank You, God. Open our spiritual eyes. Let us see God’s power. Open our eyes to see the heavenly army more than the number of people. Open our eyes to see the power of the Throne more than the matters of the world. Let us know that today’s answers are not the answer. Let us know that today’s problems are not the problem. Make us witnesses by whom only God’s plan and power are fulfilled. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

2025.09.14 Sunday 1st Service
Scripture Reading: Matthew 16:13-20

▣ Introduction

Because the conditions for destruction must be removed, do not speak but wait (verse 20).

We thought we had started only a few years ago, but thirty years have already flown by. Also, at the beginning of the year we checked our New Year’s message, and now it is already September. On my schedule it already says, “Please send next year’s theme.” So we must now examine our faith a bit and make a fresh start. When I meet with most church members, I hear descriptions that their walk of faith is somewhat difficult. There are not many who say, “I am receiving answers well,” but rather I sense that many say it is all a bit difficult. At times like that I even briefly wonder, “Am I not preaching well?” One of our church leaders said, “The sermons are too difficult.” I thought, “Are they too hard…?” When I meet newcomers, I often sense that they do not quite know what to do or how. And when I meet our members and their families are mentioned, there is always something—like, “We went to church before, but we had a stumbling block and are not attending now.” I can see and confirm such things.

Today’s passage—“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God”—was my first message at the rallies. Pastors across the nation were shocked by this message. They said they were shocked by the evangelism message, and many brought their congregants. Because problems arose in the denomination, many people have almost all left.

Why is that? I pondered this for a week. There may be various reasons, but Christ gave an accurate Word. Christ, who knows our state well, gave the answer. That is verse 20. After granting tremendous blessings and giving the covenant, He spoke in verse 20. Though it should be proclaimed widely, He said, “Do not tell anyone.” Here I gained a tremendous answer. Exactly! God, who knows us too well, tells us to wait. Not to speak yet.

※ They say Jesus is like Jeremiah, Elijah, John the Baptist, or one of the prophets – conditions for destruction. Then many answers began to appear. They say He is like Jeremiah. They say He is like Elijah. They say He is like John the Baptist. They say He is like a prophet—about Jesus. Therefore, because Christ must remove all the conditions for destruction, He says not to speak yet but to wait. Because you are indeed those who must receive answers to prayer and carry out world evangelization, you must surely confirm this.

1. The 12 bartizans of Satan

1) Trap – self, Nephilim, Tower of Babel
Satan has confined you in a trap. You must come out. What trap is it? He makes you unable to escape what is called “self.” This is the part to beware of most. Pastors worldwide think that if ministry goes well according to their will, then it is going well. That is wrong. Church leaders worldwide think that if things go well according to the church leader’s will, then it is going well. That is wrong. Those two “Satans” have collapsed the church. We must see the work of God. Right? If God keeps blessing our church and your work, my plan is unnecessary. A pastor’s insistence is unnecessary. Why must things be done my way? They must be done according to God’s Word. Right? Our stubbornness is unnecessary. Knowing this, Satan said, “If you eat this, you will be like God.” We fell immediately. We thought it would be like that, but we became Nephilim. We thought we had gained power, but we were seized by Satan. We labored to the point of death, yet everything collapsed—Babel. This continues even now. We must come out from self.

Sometimes when I must make a critical decision, even though I already have the answers, I deliberately ask my assistants. Then surprising answers come. Some try not to speak if possible; some know even more than I do—so much that inwardly I am astonished. Even when I have the answers, I must not do as I please.

2) Frame – shamanism, divination, idols
Satan then began to destroy mankind directly with these—shamanism, divination, and idols. You must come out from there.

3) Snare – six destinies
You have been caught in the snare of six destinies. You must come out of that destiny and go to Christ—to the Triune God. Without doubt. Once you realize this, it is enough. Therefore, “Do not proclaim it yet; wait.”

2. We must come out from religion without the gospel.
If a church has no gospel, it is religion. We must come out of religion. I served seven churches and learned many things there. In my home church, we fought with incompetence. I resolved to come out of that incompetence. In many churches I saw humanism, fighting, and no evangelism. I resolved to come out of that grave. We must come out. Right? Absolutely.

3. We must come out from the antichrist. The true answer is that I am inside world evangelization.
Everything other than Christ is the antichrist. Certainly. You must come out from there. Therefore, do not proclaim it yet—wait. Come out from the place where you cannot evangelize, cannot do anything, and only eat until you die. If someone asks me, “What answer have you received?” I will answer boldly—and even ask in return. “Did you eat a lot and our organization grow?” That is not an answer. People are interested in such things, but that is not an answer. “I made a lot of money.” Is that any answer? Look at the Bible. If you do not know world evangelization, He sends you into slavery. He wipes out your posterity and sends them into captivity. Right? That is the Bible’s instruction. Only when I am inside world evangelization is it that I am receiving answers.

▣ Main: Do not tell anyone yet – the true answer to receive

Do not tell anyone yet—because there are three true answers to receive regarding this.

1. Because much persecution remains, prepare and wait.
First: Because much persecution remains, prepare and wait. Right?

1) The crucifixion of Jesus – Do not be afraid; prepare the true thing.
Afterwards, Jesus was crucified. Chaos erupted. All were deceived. When He was crucified, all fled. Even those who had nearly died and lived fled. Those who saw the miracle of the five loaves and two fish and said to Jesus, “You are a King higher than any king,” all fled. Therefore, do not be afraid; prepare the true thing. It is not the time to speak now.
2) The persecution by the Jews
Persecution began from the Jews and even the Gentile nations.
3) The persecution by Rome
Rome’s persecution began in earnest. If you do not know this, you will be flustered. Not for a year or two, nor even for three days; Rome attacked for hundreds—two hundred fifty—years. Those who held this covenant began to enjoy answers. This is important.

※ We must see God’s answer in every matter and event. That is prayer and the fulfillment of the Word.

Therefore, you must be able to see God’s answer in every matter and event. That is prayer; that is the fulfillment of the Word. Because much persecution remains, this is not the time to go out, nor the time to speak—prepare.

2. The true answer remains.
Second: The true answer remains—so do not go out now; wait. What is the true answer? You will come to realize it.

1) Enjoy Christ, the true priest, true prophet, and true king.
(1) True priest – disasters x
“Christ” means the true priest who removed disasters.

(2) True prophet – the way to meet God
We cannot meet God. “Christ” means the true prophet who becomes the way for us to meet God.

(3) True king – He conquered Satan
We cannot overcome disaster or Satan. He is the true king who conquered Satan. This must be restored and enjoyed going forward. You must enjoy this.

2) The Christ prophesized
(1) Genesis 3:15 – The offspring of the woman will crush the authority of Satan.
“The offspring of the woman will bruise the serpent’s head.” Satan is not a being that “dies”; Christ will break Satan’s authority. These blessings remain. New believers, do not be shaken—hold the covenant firmly.

(2) Exodus 3:18 – On the day the blood of the lamb is applied, there will be freedom.
On the day the blood of the lamb is applied, there will be freedom. This is no ordinary statement. The movement of life is possible only by life. Satan does not fear people. He does not fear your skill. He fears the covenant of Christ—Christ Himself. Because the covenant of the blood of Christ utterly breaks the darkness, its fulfillment still remains—now, experience it.

(3) Isaiah 7:14 – Immanuel
Because of many religionists, they again went into captivity. Right? Because the church lost hold of this important truth, they went into captivity. I see that it is being lost now as well. That is why I resolved in my heart that we must evangelize. It is being lost. At that time, again God said, “A virgin will conceive and bear a son, and you shall call His name Immanuel.” That was the Word given then.

(4) Matthew 16:16 – Christ
And right before destruction, Jesus asked, “Who do you say that I am? Who do people say that I am?” They all answered wrongly. Then Peter confessed, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”

3) The perfection of Christ
And there is more remaining: the perfection of Christ. Many have not yet realized this.
(1) Christ before eternity
What happens when you call on that name? He is Christ before eternity. If you do not understand this, nothing is solved. The Jews did not understand. When He said, “I was with God before eternity,” they said, “Huh? What are you saying?” They were not spiritual leaders but like kindergarteners. “Your most revered ancestor Abraham believed in Me and was saved.” What did they say? “How old are You?” This conversation does not connect. This name was prophesied before the ages—before eternity. Right?

(2) The incarnated Christ
As promised, He came in a human body. Why? Because He had to save mankind. That is the incarnated Christ. It was prophesied.

(3) The resurrected Christ – when you pray in that name, works arise
There must be proof. He must die on the cross and rise again. Therefore Paul said, “He died according to the Scriptures and rose according to the Scriptures.” There is nothing more to say. Even now, when you pray in that name, works arise. Satan is bound.

(4) Christ, who will stand as the coming Lord – our future
It does not end there. Christ will stand as the coming Lord—our future.

(5) Christ, who will stand as the Judge – eternity (hell, heaven)
Christ will stand as the Judge—our eternity. Those who go to hell live with hell as their background even while living; “Believe in Jesus and go to heaven” is not wrong, but such words alone cannot save people. Before going to heaven—before dying—we now enjoy the background of the throne. Right? And before going to hell, they are already enjoying the background of hell; of course they go to hell, since they did not believe in God. We often try to understand these things wrongly. “Christ who will stand as the Judge” means Christ who gives the eternal answer.

People also speak strangely about the coming Lord. They say He will suddenly appear after no news at all. Not so. He is always with us from the throne; and then He will stand as the coming Lord. Such tremendous blessings still remain. You do not need to speak yet. You do not need to be discouraged. Because your promise will be fulfilled by God, you must hold to it without being swayed by human words.

3. The true blessing remains.
He spoke certainly of the remaining true blessing as the third point.

1) The blessing spoken after Peter’s confession
What is it?
(1) Rock
“You are rock.” That is, not sand—rock. A house must be built on rock. Our parsonage at Deokpyeong is filling with water; it was built on sand, so it keeps sinking, and one side is slanting. I said, “Call the builder.” They said he has died. I see. If you build on sand, it all collapses. You must build on rock. And, “On this rock I will build My church.” Do you know what the church is? “On this rock I will build My church.”

(2) Authority
He gave an even more important word: authority. “The powers of darkness will never overcome you.” That settles it, right? You must know this: the powers of darkness will never overcome you.

(3) Keys of heaven
And, “I give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven.” Of course, this includes disciplinary authority. But it is the key that opens the gate of heaven. I will give this. Christ promised it. So whether things seem to be going well or not is not the issue right now. The word is this: “The remaining blessing is tremendous, so do not speak yet.” It does not mean never speak—because the true answer still remains.

2) A tremendous mission remains.
(1) Peter’s mistakes – the Mount of Transfiguration; when Jesus was arrested

Peter made two mistakes. Even after hearing this confession and receiving this blessing, when he went up the Mount of Transfiguration and saw Elijah, Moses, and Christ, he said he would build three shelters. Right? That much is fine. But he made another mistake. One day, a sudden incident occurred—terrifying. They brutally bound and arrested Jesus Christ, the Son of God, the King of kings. Then Peter made another mistake. He became afraid; he panicked; he could not follow close to Jesus but followed from afar. They asked, “This man was with that Jesus as His disciple, wasn’t he?” He said, “No.” A servant girl said, “It’s him,” and he said, “I am not.” That is what Peter did.

(2) Salvation does not change. By God’s grace, he was saved to save many.
Those who are saved do not lose it. Jesus came to find such a Peter. Do not be deceived. Salvation is not given and taken away by calculation. You were not saved because you are so great. By God’s grace you were saved—to save many. Right? Because the world of darkness must be saved. Even though Peter made enormous mistakes, his salvation did not change.

(3) “Do you love Me? Feed My lambs.”
Jesus came to Peter. He did not ask anything else. He asked, “Do you love Me?” It was the same question. Peter answered the same way—he said he loved Him. When He asked the third time, Peter replied, “Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You.” Then again Jesus said, “Feed My lambs.” A tremendous mission still remains.

3) The bartizan, journey, and guidepost of the throne – watchman
After that, Christ Himself promised. From now on, the timetable to proclaim the gospel in earnest has come. “You will establish the bartizan of the throne.” This was the final word. “You will go the journey of the throne. Here and there, you will set up the guideposts of the throne.” Is this not certain? It was fulfilled exactly so. The difficulties you have now are not a big problem.
He has given us an even greater mission. Why speak of bartizan, journey, and guidepost? “You are a watchman. You are the watchman to guard your family line and your nation. I have called you to transmit this light.” Right?

▣ Conclusion: Do not be deceived
We keep being deceived—again and again.

1. Do not be deceived by yourself.
We are deceived by ourselves. “I am a great figure”—that is deception. “Do you know who I am?”—that is deception. “I cannot do it”—also deception. Right? We are deceived by ourselves. When you quietly look at your situation, it seems impossible—so you are deceived. Or it looks as if I have done something great—again deception.

2. Do not be deceived in the face of reality.
And what else? We keep being deceived before reality. The time of worship now is the highest time—yet we are deceived again. I have confessed many times, but I especially plead with you who must receive answers—remnants: I passed through six churches; the seventh church I came to is our church. Thankfully, I met you who evangelize. In previous churches, they closed their ears, because they must not hear it—they spent 24 hours speaking only things that can never accomplish God’s work. So I was said to “not talk much” and to be “proud,” but I am a person who talks a lot. I am not proud. I am a kind and gentle person. People are mistaken. They say I am diligent. I am not. I like to relax; I like to go around—it gives me grace. But we must do what is necessary. I do not tell you to work hard; I tell you to do what is necessary. Right? Church leaders and all middle-serving officers, in the remaining years you must concentrate. They are not long. What remains is shorter than what you have lived; time passes quickly. Now you must concentrate. Therefore, do not be deceived.

3. Do not be deceived by Satan.
In the end, do not be deceived by Satan.

I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that, through you, many nations trapped in darkness will rise. Let us pray.

Prayer. We thank You, God. We thank You for calling us as God’s children. We thank You for leading us to enjoy the gospel accurately. Let the evangelism movement that saves people arise in the remaining years of our lives. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
