A Life Without Failures

Colossians 1:15-20. The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

If you walk with Christ, you will know no ultimate failures in life. Why is this so? Because Christ Himself is the One who came from heaven, not to carry out His own will, but to fulfill the will of God the Father who sent Him (John 6:38). His entire life, ministry, death, and resurrection testify to the truth that in Him, there is no failure, only the fulfillment of God’s perfect plan.

Jesus Christ has divine authority. He alone has the authority to forgive sins (Matthew 9:6), and He has the power to give eternal life to all who believe in Him (John 6:47). Unlike any human teacher, prophet, or religious leader, He is the One who conquered death itself. By rising from the grave, He crushed the head of Satan and destroyed the one who held the power of death (Mark 9:31; Hebrews 2:14).

Anyone who truly encountered Jesus had to acknowledge that He was no ordinary man, but the very Son of God. Pontius Pilate declared His innocence (Matthew 27:24), Judas confessed his betrayal of innocent blood (Matthew 27:4), and even the Roman centurion at the cross exclaimed, “Surely He was the Son of God!” (Matthew 27:54).

John the Baptist proclaimed Him to be “the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!” (John 1:29). Peter testified that “he committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth” (1 Peter 2:22), and Paul declared that He “knew no sin” (2 Corinthians 5:21). His own disciples witnessed that even the winds and waves obeyed Him (Matthew 8:27).

While on earth, Jesus revealed the unconditional love of God. When He met a widow who had just lost her only son, His heart was moved with compassion, and He brought her son back from the dead and gave him back to her (Luke 7:11–15).

Another time, when a woman known for her sinful life poured perfume on His feet, He said of her, “Her many sins have been forgiven—as her great love has shown. But whoever has been forgiven little loves little” (Luke 7:47). He welcomed little children and blessed them (Mark 10:13–16). He even extended His grace toward His enemies (Luke 9:51–56).

As the True Priest, He gave His life as a ransom to break the curse of sin that brought death to the whole human race (Mark 10:45). When He hung on the cross, He carried all our failures, past, present, and future:

“He himself bore our sins in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; by his wounds you have been healed” (1 Peter 2:24).

Through His suffering, He gave us life:

“Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of your evil behavior. But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation” (Colossians 1:21–22).

Living apart from God leads only to failure, but through Christ, we now have peace with God:

“For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life! Not only is this so, but we also boast in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received reconciliation” (Romans 5:10–11).

Not only did He die, but He rose again to give us victory over sin and death. His resurrection is the ultimate proof that He is the Christ. His death and resurrection were foretold for thousands of years and fulfilled at the appointed time. This was the turning point of human history. His work on the cross and His resurrection changed our destiny forever.

He now lives through the Holy Spirit in those He redeemed by His blood on the cross. Even now and in the ages to come, He is leading us by His Spirit. He will continue to show us the incomparable riches of His grace, expressed in His kindness to us (Ephesians 2:7).

When the gospel is preached to the ends of the earth, He will return as King of kings and Lord of lords to establish His kingdom. He is preparing a place in heaven for those who trust in Him (John 14:1–3), and He will come again to judge the living and the dead with perfect justice and truth (Mark 14:61–62; John 5:22; Acts 1:11).

When you truly believe in the power of Christ, His authority will be revealed wherever you are. God has given us spiritual authority in His name to drive out the powers of darkness. Do not be shaken by the problems in your life, your family, or your church. Stand firm and use the authority given to you in Jesus’ name.

Who is Jesus to you? He is asking you the same question He asked His disciples, “Who do you say I am?” (Matthew 16:15). Believing about Jesus is not enough; only Jesus Himself must remain at the center of your life (Matthew 17:8). Only then will the power of Satan, sin, and hell collapse. Only then will the kingdom of God come upon you. Only then will the Holy Spirit work mightily in your life. Only then will you live a life with no regrets.

Prayer. Father, I thank You for giving me victory in Christ in every circumstance of life. Help me to hold firmly to only Christ, only Your kingdom, and only Your Spirit. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

Church Construction Is to First Receive the Answers

2025.08.17 Sunday 2nd Service
Church Construction Devotional Worship
Scripture Reading: 1 Samuel 16:13

The first person who enjoyed the blessing of temple construction was David. If you look carefully at David, you find this answer:

Temple construction – answer first
To the one who has this covenant, God first gives the answer. God will surely complete world evangelization. What matters is how we participate. Because many events happen, how we participate in world evangelization becomes the most important path. God entrusted Korea with the great blessing of world evangelization. Whenever this happens, two types of people always emerge.

We could not gain independence and were continually afflicted by Japan, China, and Russia. At such times, there were people who flattered those powers, some who used and took advantage of the situation, others who avoided it altogether, and still others who sold all their possessions and lands to devote themselves to the nation. Why was Queen Min assassinated? It was because of Russia. To put it simply, Queen Min (Empress Myeongseong) sided with Russia. When people found out that she had aligned with Russia, they killed her.

Though no one realized it at the time, God opened the door of world evangelization through Korea afterward. Surely, the construction of our temple will be completed by God. What matters is how we participate and how we pray. God gave David three missions.

Introduction – The Spirit of the Lord
From that time, it is said that David was powerfully moved by the Spirit of the Lord. What kind of mission was given to him that this happened? The phrase “powerfully moved by the Spirit of the Lord” means that everything was already finished, but it also contains something crucial.

[1. The Triune God]
The Spirit of the Triune God came upon David.

[2. The throne]
The power of the throne continually came upon David from that day forward.

[3. Victory]
Therefore, God gave him victory in everything.

[4. All answers]
Even what appeared to be suffering was actually an answer.

[5. WIOS]
In our present terminology, God gave David the system of WITH, Immanuel, and Oneness.

[6. OURS]
God gave David the system of Only, Uniqueness, and Re-Creation.

[7. Bartizan, journey, guidepost]
It is the same today. God gave David the journey of the Lord, the bartizan, and the guidepost. It could not fail. That is what it means when it says that David was powerfully moved by the Spirit of the Lord. What did David do that brought this about?

1. The mission of the Word
There are three things we must hold onto. First, David met Samuel. When he met Samuel, he received the Word, and with it, he received the mission of the living Word. He surely held onto the accurate covenant. At that time, Samuel would have explained to David what the Ark of the Covenant was and how it began. He would have also told him how the Ark had been captured by the Philistines, causing great calamity. But Samuel also explained where the Ark was now—it was in a windy place, namely, in the house of Abinadab.

2. The mission of the age
This was not just a story—it was the mission of the age. Samuel anointed David’s head with oil and told him, “You will be king.” And he added, “Prepare for the construction of the temple.”

3. The personal mission
This was David’s personal mission. From that day, David began to be powerfully moved by the Spirit of the Lord.

Main point – From that day forward
What happened from that day onward?

1. The flow of the blessing of the temple
If you read David’s Psalms, you can see the flow of the blessing of the temple.

The three feasts – This flow began with the Exodus and the three feasts. When you continually enjoy the three feasts, works of God surely arise. It is not about keeping the dates but about continually enjoying salvation, the works of the Holy Spirit, and the works of the throne. From this, you see an incredible flow.

The tabernacle-centered movement – When the great event of the Exodus occurred, a tabernacle-centered movement arose.

The Ark of the Covenant – Inside the Ark was the eternal Word of God inscribed on the stone tablets. Along with this were the jar of manna and Aaron’s staff that budded—signs that God gives life when we hold onto His Word and worship.

The Most Holy Place – The Ark was placed in the Most Holy Place, where the power of the throne was revealed.

The Holy Place – In the Holy Place were all the items that explained the grace of Christ—the table of bread, the lampstand, and more. When Christ was crucified, the veil that separated the Holy Place and the Most Holy Place was torn, granting us access to God by the name of Christ.

God gave David this tremendous flow of blessing.

2. Experience of power
From this point, David began to experience power:

Psalm 78:70–72 – Even from youth, while shepherding, God was preparing him.

1 Samuel 16:1–13 – The anointing with oil symbolized not only his kingship but the fullness of the Holy Spirit.

1 Samuel 16:23 – When David praised, evil spirits fled.

1 Samuel 17:1–47 – David overcame Goliath with ease, shocking the entire world.

Psalm 23 – Amid persecution and death, David confessed, “The Lord is my Shepherd; I lack nothing.” This was not written in comfort, but in the midst of suffering, yet full of God’s power.

3. Lifelong answer
From that time, lifelong answers began for David.

The City of David (2 Samuel 5:7) – He built the foundation for conquering the world.

The Ark of the Covenant (2 Samuel 6:1–23) – He brought the Ark into the City of David, even dancing before the Lord despite criticism.

The 1,000 bartizans – To ensure the whole nation and all remnants could pray, he built 1,000 bartizans across the land.

Preparation of the temple (three courtyards) – David prepared everything for the temple, which included the three courtyards.

Conclusion – Genesis 1:3
David’s greatest confession appears in 1 Chronicles 29:10–14. He confessed, “Everything we have comes from God. We only gave what You first gave us.” We too must hold onto the covenant that God continually works with the power of creation from Genesis 1:3.

1 Samuel 16:1–13 – Lifelong decision – David made a lifelong decision that day.

1 Chronicles 29:10–14 – Lifelong offering – David gave a lifelong offering, not just a momentary one.

Lifelong preparation for posterity – David did not complete the temple himself but made lifelong preparation for posterity. Because of this, Solomon later built the temple, and the eyes of the entire world were fixed on it.

Today’s Word
This week, we must hold onto today’s living Word. Once, when Korea was in extreme poverty, missionaries still proclaimed, “Korea is the nation that will carry out world evangelization. Do not just receive—prepare for world evangelization.” That covenant has been fulfilled. Today, Koreans are everywhere in the world. Korean food, culture, and language are spreading globally. Even this is God opening the doors for world evangelization.

At this time, we must prepare the three courtyards for the posterity and for the world. If you just hold onto the covenant, answers will surely come. Then, all the results can be returned to God. This was David’s confession.

Prayer. Lord, may Your living Word work in our lives this week. May healing arise by the power of the Word. May the blessing of creation take place by the power of the Word. May all darkness be bound. May all curses be broken. May only the gospel be proclaimed to the entire world. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

Raise the Bartizan

2025.08.17 District Message 33rd Week
PART 4 ‘The Watchman to Save the World’
Scripture Reading: Isaiah 62:6-10

Many remnants suffer because of their family situations or circumstances around them. They often ask, “What should I do in such difficult times?” Yet, outside the home, there may be even greater challenges. If they keep asking the same questions then, there will be no way forward. Many also carry scars. They ask, “How do I heal from this?” but in truth, it is very difficult to erase scars. People say, “Change your destiny,” but how? They don’t know. And how can they even confirm if their destiny has changed? People say, “Block future disasters.” But how? They say, “Prepare for the future.” But how do we prepare? These vague questions arise again and again.

“Secret Bartizan” – Testimony
That is why Jesus gave us the answer: Build the secret bartizan. It is called “secret” because it is not something visible. What about destiny? If you build this bartizan, it disappears. You cannot drive darkness out just by telling it to leave. But when light comes in, the darkness goes out. What about the future? If you overthink it, you will only worry, because the future is not here yet. But when you build this bartizan, you no longer need to worry about the future. In other words, no matter what problem comes, it will be okay. There is testimony of this. The church endured 250 years of persecution and it was okay. The Jews opposed until the end, but it was okay. Later, persecution spread worldwide, but it was still okay. Why? Because they had this bartizan. Even destiny is overturned. It does not matter. This is definite evidence.

So today, you can easily build this secret bartizan because it is built with prayer and the Word. That is why it is simple. The answer of how to build this must be found in today’s first service. But here, we must know the secret. Why is this necessary?

▣ Introduction: Nephilim
Without realizing it, we had already been used by the Nephilim bartizan.

[7 Bartizans (It is finished – the throne)]
[7 Journeys (Lifelong camp)]
[7 Guideposts (Rome, 237, 5000)]

That is why we speak of these important seven bartizans. If you just pray properly, they will be built. What is the key among the seven bartizans? Jesus said, “It is finished.” No destiny is needed. Past, present, and future are finished. For 40 days He explained that we will be with Him in the background of the throne. That is my bartizan.

If your scars become your bartizan, what happens? That is why people with special trauma must especially concentrate to receive grace—otherwise their trauma itself becomes a bartizan. Our bartizan must be this (the introduction).

What is the most important among the seven journeys? The lifelong camp of enjoying the answer. That is the answer. A camp is to shine the light—saving others and saving yourself because it is light. And the most important among the guideposts is Rome. This can mean the actual city Rome, but why Rome? Why do we send our people to America, to Europe? Why? Because in Rome, the 237 nations are gathered. And when you go to the 237 nations, the 5000 tribes are there. That is why we use the term Rome.

As we now head toward the 5000 tribes, if you go there on your own, you cannot survive even three days. That is why God is attaching to us people from the island nations of Oceania. They are the pathway. And the TCKs you are meeting are also the pathway to the 5000 tribes.

Many scholars predict—and I also see it this way—that the greatest crisis in the future will not only be war but epidemics. Perhaps in the future our posterity may have to wear masks all their lives. COVID-19 was just one example. We do not know what else may come. And all these things, if we do not help, will come from the 5000 tribes. Do you know the average lifespan in the 5000 tribes? It is 25 years. If we go there, we cannot survive even three days. But also, all the natural resources of the future are in the 5000 tribes. That is why people like Bill Gates are investing tens of trillions there. This (introduction) is the reason.

1. RT 7
This answer already existed long ago. Did it really? Yes, the 7 remnants already had this answer. They received this blessing and went to the 237 nations and the 5000 tribes. Moses realized it later than others, but he too discovered it.

2. Jochebed and Hannah
Women like Jochebed and Hannah also saw this. Who else saw it?

3. 1 Samuel 7:1-15; 16:1-13; 17:1-47
Samuel saw it. And then David saw it. That is why David had the power to defeat Goliath. But more important than that was the fact that the Philistines were spreading massive idolatry and disaster. Goliath even cursed Israel in the name of their god. That was no ordinary thing—it was deeply spiritual. And he specifically demanded: “Let someone who believes in the Lord come out.” That was a spiritual battle. So David said to Goliath, “I come to you in the name of the Lord whom you have defied. I will prove that your life belongs to the Lord, and that salvation is not in the sword but in the hand of the Lord.”

So your worship and prayer today are no ordinary matter. They are great spiritual blessings and conversations. You may not think much of yourself, but you are called to be someone who shines this tremendous light.

▣ Main 
Therefore, this covenant and worship are not ordinary. If you enjoy this covenant (the introduction), three things will surely come.

1. Platform
First, you personally, and in your work, will receive a different answer—God will build a platform that others cannot but come to.

1) 7 Bartizans – There must be bartizans for people to come.
2) 300% – God will give you the 300% answer to save yourself, others, and the future.
3) Monument – Beyond that, God will give you the blessing of a monument that will save posterity.

This is why Joseph never said, “I am great.” Instead, he said something greater: “The Lord is with me.” “The Lord is with me in all my work. The Lord is with me wherever I go.” Though it may sound unbelievable, it was the truth. And you must enjoy this blessing not tomorrow but today. Gain strength now. Pray now.

2. Watchman Bartizan
From then on, you will save others—not just drawing them to come to you, but going out to them. That is the watchman bartizan, shining the light.

1) 7 Journeys – You must have light to go on the journey. In the dark, you cannot go anywhere. With light, you can move forward.
2) Healing – When you shine the light, those in darkness are healed.
3) Summit – Because you shine the light to save others, you become the summit.

Especially remnants scattered across the U.S., Europe, and the world must firmly hold on to this covenant. Do not listen to other voices. Hold firmly to the covenant given by Christ. To the point of healing, to the point of becoming summit, to the point of overturning destiny—hold to it now.

3. Antenna of the Throne
Finally, the antenna is established that communicates with the throne. This is not just any antenna—it is the antenna of the throne. Only then can you understand what true prayer is.

1) 7 Guideposts – With this antenna, you move toward the 7 guideposts, building and establishing along the way.
2) Absolute Bartizans – From Mt Calvary to Rome, absolute bartizans were built. Sometimes it was a mission home, sometimes an RUTC, sometimes a regional church.
3) Mission home, regional church, RUTC – Especially in America, there are places without churches, or churches without gospel movement. That is why remnants are shaken. Some feel completely alone. But you must hold the covenant today: “I am the mission home, I am the regional church, I am the RUTC.” Your home can be the mission home. Invite children, friends, even their parents. That is RUTC. If you miss this blessing, later people will come to you with hidden illnesses and spiritual problems because they have nowhere else to go. That is why this is called the regional church. It is one of the three.

▣ Conclusion
In conclusion, the blessings that come when you build this bartizan are three:

237, 5000, TCK.

This is what comes. How? Just like a SIM card in your phone connects you worldwide, the light of life within you is designed to shine to the world.

May you enjoy this blessing today, in the name of Jesus Christ. Let us pray.

Prayer. We thank You, God. Let today be a day of healing. Let today be a day of experiencing Your power. Let today be the greatest day. Let today be the day we hold the covenant and receive spiritual strength. In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

Prayer of the Week: August 17, 2025

Those Who Possessed the Accurate Covenant

2025.08.17 Sunday 1st Service
Scripture Reading: Daniel 1:8-9

▣ Introduction_ Hold on to the Living and Active Word – The Standard of Worship and Prayer
Thank you. This is the question that our remnants overseas ask the most. “There is no place to worship.” Also, “It is difficult because the church is going through trials.” These are the contents they mention the most. What should they do? We must find the answer today.

Also, there are important multiethnic people here today. From my perspective, they are more important than congressmen or ministers. How should they properly feel this value?

Also, our church leaders are here. And there are many listening to this message across the nation and the world. What should they do? You must take this with you today.

Also, some may say, “I am in hardship.” “I am in great trial.” “I am in conflict.” What should you do?

  1. Jesus Christ who defeated Satan with the Word of God (Matthew 4:1-11)
    Let me first give an example. When Jesus was fasting for 40 days, Satan came to Him. It was a very important timetable. And Satan even dared to approach Jesus Christ. He gave three temptations. We must take note.

1) Temptation through physical needs
Satan knew He was very hungry and brought a stone that looked like bread, saying, “Turn it into bread and eat it.” In the Korean Bible it says “rice cake,” but in English it says “bread.” What is this? It is temptation through physical needs. Jesus defeated it with the Word.

2) Temptation using pride and self-esteem
The second temptation is something we must surely know. “If you are the Son of God, throw yourself down from the temple.” He even quoted Scripture: “The angels will come and lift you up so you will not strike your foot.” What is this? Satan uses our pride and self-esteem to destroy us. Of course, Jesus overcame with the Word.

3) Temptation to change the object of worship
When that didn’t work, Satan brought out the real temptation. This is the true one. “I will give you all of this.” This enormous Satan told Jesus he would give Him everything. What if he said to you, “I will give you one thousand trillion”? Many would change their heart. “I will give you one thousand trillion if you just do this one thing.” What was it? “Bow down to me just once.” This is important. Change the object of worship. Do not worship God. That’s what he said. Then you will get everything.

Satan tempts in three ways. He destroys you using your physical needs. He destroys you with useless pride and self-esteem. And finally, with money: “I will give you everything. Isn’t money the greatest? I will give it all. Just don’t worship God.” That’s what it is.

So then, today, you are missing something in worship. That is what the remnants must grab hold of. These precious multiethnic people are here, perhaps only once in their lifetime, what must they take with them? That is what is being spoken of here.

We must know the temptations Satan gave. Jesus quoted three verses from Deuteronomy and struck Satan down. Though He could have defeated Satan with His own authority, Jesus broke him with the Word of God. “Then Satan left Him, and the angels came and ministered to Him.” That is how it is recorded.

  1. Historical examples
    Let me give you the answer right away: Hold on to the living and active Word. This is the standard of worship. This is the standard of prayer. If you don’t catch this, you must keep going until you do.

1) Rockefeller
Let me give an example: Rockefeller. His mother told him, “On Sundays, go to church one hour early. Pray deeply. Find out beforehand what passage the pastor will preach on. Hold onto that Word and pray during the six days that it will work as living and active. Since you are a businessman, earn much money and give offering—that is the best way you can live your life of faith.” John D. Rockefeller Sr. actually did this. And what happened? The living and active Word came upon him. His business flourished beyond words, and he established 24 universities.

This is what many of you don’t know—what to do after worship. It’s true. Many don’t know what to do after coming to worship on Sunday. Instead of holding on to the living Word of God, we hold on to other things. That is a great loss.

2) Wanamaker
This morning in the elders’ meeting I shared this: Wanamaker once said, “For me, teaching children in Sunday school and worshiping on the Lord’s Day is more important than being a government minister.” He said this when he was actually appointed as a minister. What would an ordinary believer say? “How important it is to be a minister! Not everyone can be one. But anyone can serve in Sunday school.” They would say, “Hallelujah! I’m a minister.” And to get it, they would even lie in their confirmation hearings. But Wanamaker said no.

This is not about whether being a minister is important or Sunday school is important. What he meant is this: holding onto the Word in worship on the Lord’s Day and making it living and active—that is how he became the department store king of the world. This is what we are missing.

3) Lincoln (Galatians 3:28)
Another example: Lincoln. You know how he faced continual failures. Yet he held on to one thing: the living and active Word. Even in the midst of failure, he held on to it. He held on to Galatians 3:28. And he changed the world. The work of the Word continued to happen. This is what you must hold on to. Remnants, this is beyond words.

  1. Biblical examples
    Let’s look at biblical examples. We just saw historical ones, now let’s look at the Bible.

1) Joseph
He was sold to a place where no one could help him. Joseph. But Joseph held on to the living and active Word. In Potiphar’s house, God worked. Even in the fields, God worked. Though falsely accused and imprisoned, he held on to the living and active Word. He became governor. This is not just a story. If you lose hold of this on Sunday and throughout the week, you lose everything. Even if pastors have a hundred doctorates, world evangelization won’t happen without the work of the Word.

2) Jochebed
A great crisis arose: all the babies were to be killed. But Jochebed prayed and held on to the covenant. She realized, “Only God is living.” “Only the gospel is living.” And she thought, “Where will the gospel be revealed and spread the most? In the palace. I will send my son there with the living covenant and Word.” And an astonishing work took place.

3) Moses
That covenant eventually came to Moses. Before he turned 80, he had the covenant, but he didn’t hold on to the living and active Word. That’s why God appeared to him at Mt Horeb: “Go, offer the blood sacrifice. Speak to Pharaoh. Speak to the people before Pharaoh. Speak to the elders before the people. Tell them the Lord has spoken. I will be with you with My mighty hand.” Moses said, “I can’t.” “I am not able.” The living Word and Moses had nothing to do with each other. “I am too old. I am not eloquent. I am a fugitive.” But in Exodus 4:24, God came to take Moses’ life. After telling him to go to Pharaoh in Exodus 3, in chapter 4, God came to take him. What does this mean? Simply: “Will you go or die?” Moses chose to go, because that was better than death. From then on, the living and active Word began to appear to Moses.

4) Joshua
The same happened with Joshua. God said, “I have given you the land of Canaan.” Not “I will give,” but “I have given.” “As I was with Moses, so I will be with you. Do not fear. Be strong and courageous. I am with you.” This meant great works would happen. From then on, the Word lived and worked through Joshua.

5) Rahab the prostitute
What did she see? She heard the news, and she saw the living and active Word. Many Israelites who saw it did not realize it, but Rahab heard the news and held on to the Word.

6) Jeremiah
Next week’s sermon, but I’ll mention it: “The Word of the Lord came to Jeremiah a second time.” The living Word of God came to him. What happened?

7) David
The most afflicted man in the Old Testament was David. But the reason he received the greatest covenant was not just because of answers here and there, but because he held on to the fulfillment of the living and active Word of God.

※ John Bunyan
Today’s passage is also about captivity. What covenant did they hold? This is important: How would this Word live and work?

John Bunyan, as you know, was imprisoned 16 years for the gospel. Sixteen years in prison is no small matter. But the issue was not age or losing everything—while there, he experienced the living and active Word. From that came Pilgrim’s Progress.

So, without many words, you must catch this: “Ah, this is how I must worship, and how I must live during the week.” You must catch this.

▣ Main point: Daniel who resolved in his heart when he became a captive
When Daniel became a captive, he resolved in his heart. You must resolve in your heart. What must you do? He resolved it. He knew why they were captured. He knew why they were destroyed. Then what should he do here? He resolved it.

  1. He held on to the covenant to be fulfilled – Immanuel (Isaiah 7:14)
    First, he held on to the covenant to be fulfilled. We must not hold on to covenants that will not be fulfilled.

Who gave this covenant? Isaiah did. Daniel held on to it. The most important word Isaiah gave was this: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.” Daniel held on to the covenant of Immanuel—God with us.

Isaiah spoke of five great things. Daniel held them. What are they?

1) The remnants will rise and bring restoration (Isaiah 6:13)
This was the first: “The remnants will rise and bring restoration.” Daniel held on to this.

2) The Word that works forever (Isaiah 40:8, 31)
“You will hold on to the power of God’s Word. Have you not known? Have you not heard? The Word of the Lord is the Word that works forever.”

3) The power of the Word (Isaiah 43:18-19)
In Isaiah 43:18-19, he explained the power of God’s Word: “A way will be made in the wilderness. Rivers will flow in the desert. Forget the former things; do not dwell on the past. See, I am doing a new thing.”

4) Arise, shine your light (Isaiah 60:1-22)
“Arise, shine your light. The glory of the Lord has already risen upon you. Your posterity will return. The third economy will return. The least will become a thousand, the weakest a mighty nation. I the Lord will hasten it in its time.”

5) The watchman (Isaiah 62:6-12)
“Set watchmen on the walls. Be a watchman. Do not let the Lord rest day or night. Build up the highway. Raise a banner so that all nations may come.” Daniel held on to this. That’s why he could not but be victorious. Hold on to the covenant that will be fulfilled—the living and active covenant.

  1. He held on to the place and timetable of fulfillment
    Second, when and where is the covenant fulfilled? You must hold on to this.

1) The great disaster and crisis in Egypt
In Egypt, when the great disasters came, the power of the Word appeared.

2) The attack of the Philistines
For fourteen generations the Philistines brought suffering, and no one appeared. But David, who was inside the living covenant and Word, arose and defeated them. You must see when it happens.

3) The invasion of Assyria (2 Kings 19:35)
The Assyrians continually oppressed Israel. But one man arose—Hezekiah. When he became king, he sent word to Assyria: “You have oppressed us until now. But I am now king of Israel. From now on, I will not send you tribute.” Why should they send it? Hezekiah was remarkable. Assyria then came with 185,000 soldiers. In 2 Kings 19:35, it says Hezekiah turned to the wall and prayed with all his life. He prayed for the power of the Word to work. And that night, God called away the 185,000 Assyrian soldiers. The Bible records: “The angel of the Lord went out and struck down 185,000 in the Assyrian camp.” I believe this. Why? Because when you go to heaven, the angels also come to take you. No one goes alone. Likewise, those going to hell are dragged by Satan. That’s why unbelievers scream when they are about to die—they are terrified. But the saved are accompanied by angels, sometimes even singing hymns as they depart.

4) The attack of Aram (2 Kings 6:8-23)
When Aram continually attacked Israel, Elisha was at Dothan, raising disciples and remnants, praying. There the living Word of God was proclaimed, testified, and taught. Aram learned of this. “Why is Israel always one step ahead of us? Do we have spies?” They answered, “No, there is a man who sees everything—Elisha in Dothan.” The king commanded: “Capture him alive and bring him.” So the Aramean army surrounded Dothan. But the Bible records: “Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” God made them surrender, and Israel won without fighting.

  1. They were inside the fulfilled covenant
    Third, they were inside the fulfilled covenant. Not about what will be fulfilled—they were already inside the fulfilled covenant. These were people who were already filled with the power of the Word Isaiah had prophesied. Five people stood out at that time.

1) Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego (Daniel 3:16-18)
Nebuchadnezzar built an idol and commanded all to bow. These three did not. The king was astonished and said, “Bow. I will give you one more chance.” But they replied, “We do not need to defend ourselves in this matter. Even if God does not rescue us, we will not bow.” The power of the Word appeared in Babylon and saved the 237 nations.

2) Daniel (Daniel 6:10, 16, 20-22)
Another was Daniel. Though in captivity, the living Word began to work greatly in him. He interpreted Nebuchadnezzar’s dream and Belshazzar’s writing on the wall. In the time of King Darius, who loved Daniel deeply, politicians plotted against him. They tricked the king into signing a law that anyone who worshiped another god must die. Darius approved it. Daniel knew about it, but “as before, he prayed three times a day toward Jerusalem, giving thanks and worshiping.” He could not be stopped. When thrown into the lions’ den, the king cried out, “Daniel, servant of the Most High God, has your God whom you serve continually rescued you?” From the den came Daniel’s voice: “O king, live forever. Last night the angel of the Lord shut the mouths of the lions, and they did not harm me.”

3) Esther (Esther 2:10, 4:14-16)
Another was Esther. She became queen. Mordecai told her first: “Do not reveal that you are a Jew.” Later, when all Jews were about to be destroyed, he told her, “Now reveal it.” In Esther chapters 2 and 4, we see how someone inside the living and active Word of God could see what to do.

▣ Conclusion_ The Living and Active Word
Today, forgive me for speaking so long, but simply hold onto this: the living and active Word. Is this possible? It was for me.

  1. Poverty, incompetence, and disease
    When I was young, I faced poverty, incompetence, and disease. I had no ability to evangelize. I was incompetent, poor, and sick. But I challenged so that God’s covenant Word would work. Today I still minister with this: “Do evangelism this way. Do healing this way. Work in 300% this way.”
  2. Hardship
    I once faced a time when it seemed absolutely impossible. Then I began to organize God’s living and active Word. After that, world evangelization arose. Meeting you is a blessing. We started here without strength, yet world evangelization arose. Some started here, and others came from across the nation and world to Busan because they truly wanted to evangelize.
  3. Hold on to the living and active Word in the future
    What about the future? I believe you must hold on to the living and active Word. We will go to the 5000 tribes, not just the 237 nations.

If any of you are sick, do not be discouraged. Experience the living and active Word of God. You must experience the power of the Word.

※ Do not give up. Do not limit the spiritual with your own thoughts.
Some say, “My husband cannot change.” “My child cannot change.” Many think this way. But that means you are already imprisoned in your own limits. You must know how God works.

One woman said, “My husband cannot change. He is an alcoholic.” I told her, “That is your thought. Thank God he is alive. He may be used for world evangelization.” She realized something. Her thinking completely changed. That night her husband came home drunk, asked for water, and she brought it saying, “Thank you.” The husband was shocked: “Why are you thankful?” She said, “Thank you for coming home alive. Thank you for not being sick despite drinking so much. God will bless you.” From then, change began.

I am a witness. Many told me it was impossible. But do not be discouraged because of your children. My mother never gave up. She held my feet in prayer and never gave up. One day, the gospel came upon me, the Word came to me, and I gained faith and assurance.

So then, when I repented and went out carrying my Bible and hymnbook, there was the owner of the largest store in our neighborhood, a man who ran a bar. He looked up to the heavens and said, “Surely God is alive.” Isn’t that right? Do not give up. Do not limit the spiritual with your own thoughts. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that from this week, the greatest days will begin.

Prayer. Lord, let today be the day of the covenant. Let us confirm the living Word today. Let us experience it this week. Let it be the beginning. In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

Hymn
There Is No Name So Sweet On Earth
George W. Bethune 

There is no name so sweet on earth,
No name so sweet in heaven,
The name before his wondrous birth
To Christ the Savior given.

We love to sing around our King,
And hail him blessed Jesus;
For there’s no word ear ever heard
So dear, so sweet as “Jesus.”

And when he hung upon the tree,
They wrote this name above him;
That all might see the reason we
Forevermore must love him.   Chorus

So now, upon his Father’s throne,
Almighty to release us
From sin and pains, he gladly reigns,
The Prince and Savior Jesus.   Chorus

To Jesus ev’ry knee shall bow,
And ev’ry tongue confess him,
And we unite with saints in light,
Our only Lord to bless him.   Chorus

O Jesus, by that matchless name,
Your grace shall fail us never;
Today as yesterday the same,
You art the same forever.   Chorus

Scripture Reading
Daniel 1:8-9

But Daniel resolved not to defile himself with the royal food and wine, and he asked the chief official for permission not to defile himself this way. 9 Now God had caused the official to show favor and compassion to Daniel.

Special Music
There Shall Be Showers of Blessing
Daniel Webster Whittle · Worship Team

There shall be showers of blessing:
This is the promise of love;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
Sent from the Savior above.

Showers of blessing,
Showers of blessing we need;
Mercy-drops round us are falling,
But for the showers we plead.

There shall be showers of blessing—
Precious reviving again;
Over the hills and the valleys,
Sound of abundance of rain.

There shall be showers of blessing;
Send them upon us, O Lord!
Grant to us now a refreshing;
Come, and now honor Thy Word.

There shall be showers of blessing;
O that today they might fall,
Now as to God we’re confessing,
Now as on Jesus we call!

There shall be showers of blessing,
If we but trust and obey;
There shall be seasons refreshing,
If we let God have His way.

Hymn · Offering
Jesus Is My Way, Truth, and Life
Jang Hee Lee

Jesus is my way, and He is my truth
Jesus is the life in me
Since I met the Lord
Asked Him in my heart
My life’s never been the same

When I am in Him
And He is in me
He will answer all my prayers
What I have is something
That the world can’t offer
What I have in Jesus is true peace!

In this life, I live for Jesus Christ
With His covenant rooted in my heart
When the Lord gives me His power
He will use my life to share His gospel to the world

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

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

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

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

Disciples Who Saw What Was Hidden

2025.08.16 Scattered Disciples
The Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC to Save the 237 Nations and the 5000 Tribes (33)
– Model 29 of 7∙7∙7 –
Scripture Reading: Romans 16:25-27

What is it? Three things.

[ 1. Hidden disciples ]
God will at last raise up hidden disciples for you. This is the true reality.

[ 2. Hidden field ]
God will show you the hidden field that unbelievers can never see. Others cannot solve this Nephilim problem.

[ 3. Hidden future ]
God will finally give you the hidden future.

This is the path that scattered disciples must especially walk. In this way, world evangelization is fulfilled.

This year, in every field, and especially through our WRC Conference, many things have been accomplished. Surely, the gospel will be testified even in the nations covered in darkness. Do you feel as though you have suffered many hardships and sustained loss? No. It is merely a process. You must quickly come to the correct answer. This is the very first thing you must know. “Why is my family like this?” Not so. It is a process by which God is giving you an important message. Do not resent your parents. It is a process to let you know your future. Everything is like this. It is neither a problem nor an answer—it is a process.

The only true answer is this: God’s Word being fulfilled, the prayer answers that God has given to us being accomplished, and world evangelization taking place. Only this is the true answer. May this be the beginning of your complete victory, in the name of Jesus Christ I bless you. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, we thank You. We thank You for allowing this day to be an important day. Grant that tomorrow may be a day of healing. Grant that it may be a day when all problems are resolved. Let the darkness be bound. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

Why Are There No Answers?

2025.08.16 Core
The Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (33)
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-8

Thank you. Today’s title is “Why is there no answer?” Prayer should be answered, but why is it not? We need to take note of this.

▣ Introduction
[ First things to do ]
It is because we missed what must be done first. What should we do first? What should our remnants do first? If we don’t miss that, answers will come.

[ First things to know ]
Before the first things to do, there are first things to know. Listen carefully—if you don’t know this, you will lose almost everything. There are first things to know.
Now, before us, problems come, don’t they? Answers come too, don’t they? But if you don’t know what is important, you will lose almost everything. We have church leaders here too, and church leaders must make many decisions in the church. Then what should they know first? You must know that to make correct decisions. Then the first things to do will come. And then answers follow. Answers follow. So what is the first thing to do? Right now pastors must preach sermons, but if they don’t know the first thing to do, how can the sermon be accurate?

[ Prayer ] [ Word ] [ World evangelization ]
Now, a problem has come? An answer has come? Such things are before us. But prayer answers, fulfillment of the Word, works of salvation, and world evangelization are happening now. Aside from this, nothing else is really an answer. Problems coming are not problems. They are processes. But people keep missing this. When problems happen in your church, what do you do? Since they don’t know this, they keep missing it. So at the session they make decisions, but those are wrong decisions. Not bad decisions, but wrong ones. Later on, with much time passed, you’ll realize. I’ve kept telling you, haven’t I? You faced hardship? No—it is a process.

Now, let’s take Joseph, a remnant you know well, as an example. He was sold to human traffickers and dragged away. That is not a problem. It’s a process. Within that, three things began to be fulfilled. He became governor. That is not the answer. He kept saying the same thing: becoming governor was simply part of world evangelization. Do you understand what this means? Since people missed this, they judged wrongly. “Oh no, our church has a problem.” But while God is leading you through the process of blessing, you say, “Oh no, a problem has come!” Frankly speaking, when a remnant says, “Why did my parents die early and leave us to suffer?”—the answer is, “You are a great person who does not even need parents. God only gives you what is necessary. It is all a process.”

Now, this is not just talk. If you miss this, no matter how much you pray, it will not work. Because you are seeing it wrongly. If Joseph thought, “Why did my brothers do this to me?” he would have gone the wrong way. If he thought, “Why am I being put in prison when I did nothing wrong? Just wait and see!” then he would have gone another way. He might be right, but he would have gone another way. Joseph knew what the true way was. Even when standing before Pharaoh, he said the same thing. Even as a slave, he said the same thing.

(1) First confirmation (CVDIP)
At that time, what is important is the first confirmation. What is it? At that moment, CVDIP comes forth. The Word is already shown—Covenant. You already hold this important thing—then Vision. You already enjoy beforehand—Dream. You already conquer beforehand—Image. You already experience beforehand—Practice. This is CVDIP.

(2) First field
From then on, what happens? Not just confirmation, but you begin to see the first field. This follows.

(3) First preparation
And what else? You begin to see what God has already prepared. That is the disciple.

So if you only know these first things, everything else follows. But if you don’t know this, if you don’t know the first things to know, then when problems come you get discouraged, and when small answers come you get carried away. Sometimes you chase after what is not even the answer. King Saul chased David around to kill him—that was chasing after something that was not the answer. That’s why he perished. You must absolutely remember this.

▣ Main point_ [ The start of actual answers ]
Then what remains now? The start of actual answers.

1. Acts 2:1–4 The flow of prayer
The first of the five things. The flow of prayer. If you understand this, the flow of prayer becomes clear.

2. Acts 2:14–21 The flow of the Word
This is what you must absolutely enjoy. The flow of the Word. You devote yourself with the flow of prayer, and you devote yourself with the flow of the Word. Pastors preach with the flow of the Word.

3. Acts 2:9–11 The flow of evangelism
Acts 2:9–11. What is this? The flow of evangelism. This is what you actually see.

4. Acts 2:17–18, 46–47 The flow of the field
Acts 2:17–18, 46–47. The flow of the field. This is what you see.

5. Acts 2:10 The flow of the nation
Now Acts 2:10. The flow of a nation. This is how you enjoy answers. One day, Priscilla and Aquila gave much offering and served the Lord, and they became magnates moving the world. One day, though they thought they had worked in hardship, they became those who conquered the world, who conquered Rome.

1. Acts 2:1–4 The flow of prayer
Now, within the flow of prayer, you must remember three things.

1) Prayer topics given. You must think of the topic God gave. Most of the time, we are holding onto something God did not give.

2) Prayer topics to be given. Then you see it—the topic God will give. Chasing after something else is not it. If you know what you received, you will know what will be given.

3) The true answer. This is knowing the true answer that comes out now. Always remember: God’s Word, world evangelization, and prayer answers—this is the true answer. Nothing else is. In no case do you need to be discouraged.

2. Acts 2:14–21 The flow of the Word
Now, the flow of the Word. You must absolutely know this.

1) Eternity – 12. What are the eternal problems and answers? The 12 problems and the solution. The 12 problems came from Satan, and the solution is Christ.

2) Church – 5. The 5 things the church lost hold of and that became problems. You know these 5 things without explanation. If you don’t know this, you don’t know the flow of the Word.

3) Today – fulfillment. From then on, today’s Word is fulfilled. That alone is the answer.

3. Acts 2:9–11 The flow of evangelism
Now, the flow of evangelism becomes clear.

1) 237–5000. The level of your studies and your work must match the 237 nations and the 5000 tribes.

2) RT. You must match with remnants. You must match with TCK, CCK, and NCK. You are set to match with them.

3) That timetable. So you are inside that timetable. “When the day of Pentecost had fully come.” “I the Lord will hasten it in its time.” That is how it happens. So when you hear the message or think about it, you don’t get impatient. You find peace. You enjoy.

4. Acts 2:17–18, 46–47 The flow of the field
Now, the flow of the field becomes visible. You must absolutely see it with three things.

1) Guidance. God will guide you by the Holy Spirit.

2) Works. By the works of the Holy Spirit, He will crush the Nephilim.

3) Fruits. By the fruits of the Holy Spirit, these three will be sustained. This is the flow of the field.

5. Acts 2:10 The flow of the nation
Finally, a nation.

1) Matthew 28:16–20. There are many important words here, but what is the key word? Disciple. He told us to make disciples.

2) Mark 16:15–20. Everything is important here, but what is it? Healing. He told us to heal.

3) Acts 1:1–8. Everything is important here, but what is the most important? The real power that will be given to you. “Only by the Holy Spirit.” That is how world evangelization happens. Otherwise, it cannot be done. “Only by the Holy Spirit.” To our remnants. This is the flow.

▣ Conclusion_ Future
Then the future begins to appear. How does it look?

1. 7 bartizans (Word)
While praying for the 7 bartizans, the future becomes visible. Especially the Word becomes visible. Then it is finished. The Word is present. When you listen to your pastor’s sermon, when the pastor goes out to preach, the Word that is fulfilled comes out.

2. 7 journeys (Fulfillment)
While continuing to pray for the 7 journeys, God’s Word is fulfilled.

3. 7 guideposts (Revival)
While simply praying for the 7 guideposts, true revival begins. Your work strangely begins to come alive. True revival. It is not the fake kind where you think, “I did well once, I failed another time.” This is true revival. Nothing can block it.

At this point, you see the final thing. You absolutely see it through the scattered disciples.

Multi-Ethnic Festival

2025.08.16 Remnant and TCK Study of Evangelism
The Evangelist’s Life and the Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (33)
– Model 29 of the 3 Courtyards –
Scripture Reading: Acts 2:9-11

With the three courtyards in view, today is the multinational festival. One of our remnants in Busan took the broadcasting announcer exam. They were hiring two announcers, and thousands of people came to apply. Of course, the applicants were narrowed down step by step. In the end, this remnant was selected into the final six. Out of those six, four would be cut and only two would be chosen. This remnant often came to me asking for prayer, and said that only the final interview remained. They shared with me that they felt they probably wouldn’t make it because one of the conditions for the announcer recruitment didn’t really fit them. Still, making it into the top six meant they had already placed very high. So I said to them, “You’ll be sitting in front of important people. Up to now, you’ve shown them something extraordinary. You made it to the final six because you showed them your excellence, your intelligence, and your ability. That in itself is already proven. But for the final step, don’t focus on showing off anymore. Speak with humility and sincerity.” In the end, God had His plan. They passed. It really struck me how difficult it is to become an announcer. But anyway, they passed and they’re working in the field now.

▣ Introduction_ A small and sincere festival
For our multinational remnants, there must be a small, yet sincere festival. That’s why we call it a multinational festival. The word festival is used when there is great joy, isn’t it? So when these multinational people come, they must receive the most important answer of their lives. That is why it is a festival. Now let’s look at Scripture.

▣ Main point

1. Acts 2:9–11
In Acts 2:9–11, the multinationals gathered.

Mission festival
What do you think these people needed most? A mission festival. No matter what, they had to be given a mission. And in order to truly give them that mission, a few references are needed.

1) Acts 2:1–4 – The three feasts and Pentecost
In Acts 2:1–4 we see important terms: the three feasts and Pentecost. These must be clearly communicated. The people who gathered in the Mark’s upper room already held onto Passover, and the Feast of Tabernacles was their background. What they were enjoying at that time was Pentecost. So it says, “When the day of Pentecost came…” But for the multinationals who would later come, you had to explain the three feasts as a whole while highlighting Pentecost.

2) Acts 2:17–18 – Worship and the future
In Acts 2:17–18, it speaks of worship and the future: “Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young adults will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.” It is about the future.

3) Acts 2:9–11 – The mission of the nations
And in Acts 2:9–11, fifteen nations were present. Each had to return with the mission for their own nation.

2. Healing festival
Second, although several passages are listed in the Bible, the answer is clear: a healing festival.

1) Acts 3:1–12 – The world and the multinationals
In Acts 3:1–12, the man crippled from birth sitting at the temple gate called Beautiful was healed. This was a message delivered to multinationals all over the world. People might think, “Oh, he was just sitting at the temple gate,” but that location was known worldwide. Jews and those connected to Jews came from all nations for the feast days. And there, in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, the crippled man was healed.

2) Acts 8:4–8 – The abandoned multinationals
In Acts 8:4–8, the healing festival was for the abandoned multinationals. This was Samaria. Many multinationals lived there, which is why the Jews avoided associating with them. But because the Jews did not have the gospel, they saw things wrongly. From God’s perspective, these were abandoned multinationals. It was to them that the gospel was proclaimed, and a healing festival took place. This is extremely important.

3) Acts 8:26–40 – The Holy Spirit and the Spirit
In Acts 8:26–40, we see the Ethiopian eunuch. You know this story well—it was miraculous. He came of his own accord, bought a scroll of God’s Word, and was asking questions about Christ. Two things must be noted here: “The Holy Spirit said to Philip…” and “The Spirit of the Lord…” It was here that a tremendous gospel and healing festival took place.

So when the multinationals come, you must always give them these three things.

3. Sending festival
Third, from God’s perspective, this is the ultimate: the sending festival. But at that time, there was no one prepared to be sent. So where did they go?

1) Acts 17:1
They went into the synagogues. This was to prepare for sending disciples into the future for the world. It might look like you are doing something small now, but in reality, you are sending disciples with the world in view.

2) Acts 18:4

3) Acts 19:8
And these three passages together show the whole flow:
Mission festival. Healing festival. Only then does it have content. And then, sending festival. This is the multinational festival. So, even if it is not something done on a large scale, even if small, it must leave an impression on the multinationals. Why? Because if they do not realize the mission God has given, it is all in vain. They must receive healing for their long-standing problems. Then they must return as disciples.

▣ Conclusion
So whenever we receive God’s Word, we must see the answer for today. When we see today’s answer, we realize that the power to save the nations already exists in the strong nations. But among the 5000 tribes, it does not exist. That is why this time, people came from Papua New Guinea, Fiji, the Solomon Islands, and Vanuatu. So what is today’s answer? That from our secretariat, the Remnant Headquarters, or from you and me directly, we should send a note of thanks and encouragement to those who came here, to their presidents or prime ministers. We must! They consider this extremely important.

Once, long ago when I was still an assistant pastor, our church held a revival meeting. The speaker was a very solid person, full of good content. I helped out, and after the meetings ended, the pastor left. Later, I got a call at my home—it was that pastor. He called just to thank me, saying he received much grace at the revival and wanted to express his gratitude. Immediately, I saw him differently: “This man is different.”

Message
So in concluding this gathering, let us remember: it is not a small thing for people to come to our nation or for us to meet people from abroad. For these people, we must always send messages of thanks and encouragement. We must always finish well and continue well. That is today’s answer for us.

Tomorrow, may you also experience a living work of God that gives you many answers and strength throughout the whole day. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ. Let us pray.

Prayer. We thank You, God. Important people have gathered at this important time. Also, for all who are listening to this message throughout the world, may You work by Your Holy Spirit. Allow us to see the living works of God. In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

Healing Is Our Basic Mission

2025.08.16 Business Missions
The 237 Nations and the Start of Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (33)
– Bartizan 29 of the 3-day Weekend Age –
Scripture Reading: Matthew 8:17

– Today’s Answer – The Living Answer –
When you worship, the most important thing is to discover today’s answer. If you cannot find it, then worship becomes meaningless. What is the standard? It must be a living answer. Earlier, I gave an example of a man who found such an answer. We might have overlooked it, but he discovered a tremendous response.

“Healing Is the Basic Commission”
So then, today’s title is “Healing Is the Basic Commission.” This means you must find your own answer concerning healing. Isn’t that true? A pastor who cannot provide an answer for healing others is in a difficult situation. But is it hard? Not at all—it is simple. Then why not do what is simple? This doesn’t mean that laypeople must become specialists, but as a layperson, when you meet someone who is sick, you should have an answer for how to help. Isn’t that right?
We proclaim that Jesus is the Christ, but people are often suffering in pain. Then how will you help them as you share Christ? Paul also healed those with spiritual problems while preaching Christ. Always, it must be a living answer.
Tomorrow in the first service I will explain more about how to receive answers in crises. But today, you must find today’s answer.

We must also consider: why are we meeting the people of Oceania right now? If we fail to discover the living answer here, then our encounter with them will pass without fruit. They are people through whom we can see the straight path to the 5000 tribes. In the future, global epidemics will even arise from the 5000 tribes, so we must prevent them. Some of these diseases could kill you within three days. How will we stop such crises? That is why I considered the people from Oceania extremely important—they are part of the way to reach the 5000 tribes.

This time, representatives from four nations came, and among them the Solomon Islands were most influential. Remember, 3,000 Korean soldiers died in the Solomon Islands during the Pacific War. Why did they die there? Because it is a strategic passage. That makes the people of that region important. Among them, a minister from the Solomon Islands received great grace, listened attentively, and took detailed notes. He said, “We will also start the movement for the future generations—the remnant movement.” These were prepared people.

But when we took them to the hospital, not just 90% but 100% of them had serious diseases, many of which they were unaware of. When their president visited, the doctors were shocked after examination. They even said he should not fly because of his condition. He had not known, though he was already in such difficulty that he could hardly walk, and his eyesight was failing. But after receiving treatment here, he recovered, and with that recovery, he sensed a great mission. He wanted to return this time but could not due to diplomatic commitments.

In advanced nations, about 40% are suffering from spiritual illnesses. In churches of thousands—for example, like Immanuel Busan or Seoul—you will find at least five new cancer patients each week. Healing is a basic commission.

So then, what answer must you hold today? You must hold it to receive it. If you do not, it will not come.

“Preventing Further Sickness”
I personally hold this answer: healing that prevents further sickness is most important. What does this mean?

1. Personal Healing
First is personal healing. How should it be done?

  • Root Healing
    You must heal the root. Hospitals are necessary, but you must heal the root.
  • Imprint Healing
    You must heal what has been imprinted.
  • Re-creation Healing
    You must heal for re-creation.

This only you can do. No one else can. Only the pastors here can do this. If you neglect it, misuse it, or distort it, you become a very wrong person. Only you can heal the root. If someone has a small illness like a cold, hospitals can handle that. But the root is not healed there. This is your commission.

2. Work Healing – Life Healing
Next is work healing, which means healing life itself. For root healing to be maintained, life must also be healed.

[The 12 Strategies of Satan]
Here (Main Point 1), the important matter is Satan’s 12 strategies. Believers must be freed from them. If left alone, these strategies manifest as Acts 13, 16, and 19. They become ways of life and systems of work. Look at the three organizations today: their movements have become a global system of work. In Japan, the immense idol system has become an industry. Even the prime minister bows at the shrines. This means it has been politicized. It is very serious.

So what healing must we provide? Healing from the Nephilim culture. Nothing is more important. And you can provide it. You must find the answer. This is today’s answer for your ministry.

3. Field Healing – Healing Believers
Finally, there is field healing. Since we must go to the field, it is essential. And what must we heal there? First, the healing of believers.

[Five Strategies]
Believers are caught in Satan’s five strategies. For example: “Tradition is important. Even if the gospel is true, how can we eat in the home of a Gentile like Cornelius?” This is Satan’s first strategy. On the mission field, many believers say, “We must still keep the Jewish laws.” That is Satan’s second strategy. Many claim, “My experience, my thoughts, my assertions are important.” That is Satan’s fortress, described in 2 Corinthians 10:4–5. Others are bound by the love of honor—John 16:11–14 says Satan has become the prince of this world. Many love the world, wealth, and pleasures, because Satan has become the god of this age (2 Corinthians 4:4–5). Even believers are bound.

So Paul raised believers like Lydia, Jason, and Priscilla to bring healing. Where it failed, he trained disciples separately in Tyrannus. Finally, he declared, “You must also testify in Rome.” This is very important.

You already have the qualification, ability, and resources to heal. The only thing missing is the answer. You don’t need to start something big or build elaborate systems. Simply, those you meet must receive healing through you. If a person with spiritual problems receives no help through you, that makes no sense. And if you can but will not, that is the problem.

Seek today’s answer—it is vital. Tomorrow in the first service, we will speak about the critical answers you must hold. You may say, “But I have many problems and difficulties.” That makes it even more important.

I myself am facing great difficulties. Therefore, I must prepare something that will truly change the age. Preparation—that is what I will do. Regardless of what others say or do, I must stand before God. A few who had this answer evangelized from Macedonia all the way to Rome.

Conclusion – Witness
So this is the conclusion: when you become sick, it is the beginning of your healing commission. God could take you at any time. But why allow you to become sick? It is the start of a healing commission. Some die suddenly in their sleep. Then why did you get cancer? It is the beginning of your healing commission. Witness.

Today and tomorrow, the key is this: living Word, living answer. It must be discovered. After worship, you must be alive. How can you save the dying if you yourself are spiritually lifeless? Remember this well.

God has called you as His witness. He promised to give you power, even to the ends of the earth. He didn’t say “be witnesses” but “you will be witnesses.” Because nothing else will work, He said “only” the Holy Spirit. This is not arrogance—it is fact. Healing the root problems and the Nephilim culture is something only you can do. If you neglect it, you are in the wrong. You must do it.

In the army, a young man with spiritual problems suffered and ended up committing suicide. Afterward, investigations followed, as always. But the real issue was this: there was no one inside the army to comfort and help that young man. That was the tragedy. There were chaplains, but still no one to help him. Spiritual problems are visible. Our mission is not just about doing great works. What matters is your life as a witness wherever you are.

I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ to enjoy the living answers of God all day long.

Prayer. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings, the eternal love of God the Father, and the working of the Holy Spirit be with all the workers, church leaders, and believers in every nation, and with those gathered here, from now until eternity. Amen.
