The 237 Nations and the Bartizan of God’s Kingdom That Fulfills the Eternal Answers of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd RUTC (8)
– Bartizan of the 3-day Weekend Age 54 –
「The Bartizan of Obadiah」
(1Ki 18:1-15)

Thank you. About once a month, I feel that we should have a gathering where we pray for one nation, for the 237 nations and the 5,000 tribes. If possible, if preparation is made, I think it is also necessary to communicate with those teams through Zoom. This is because we must actually achieve “field-actualization” for the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes.

Today is a day where we pray all day for Vanuatu. Vanuatu is a field that currently possesses a great possibility of opening the door to the 5,000 tribes. Therefore, works are occurring to the point where the things God is doing are mysterious. Every time those people come to Korea, a significant illness is discovered. Also, there are those who actually came to Korea thinking, “This is my last [chance],” but they were almost completely healed. Korean medical technology is outstanding, but many works are occurring because they gained the strength of prayer. So these people make a resolution to preach the Gospel with their lives on the line.

Now, what kind of person is needed to save a nation like Vanuatu?

A person like Obadiah is needed. Since we cannot meet Obadiah right now, we must create this “Bartizan of Obadiah.” Because the theme of this year is the Bartizan, we must understand it well and create it. 1 Kings 18:1-15. The record of this Obadiah appears here.

▣ Introduction

To receive answers, the question is whether we can truly become like Obadiah. You can do it if you do five things.

1. The Bartizan of the Throne

First, like this Obadiah, it is enough if the Bartizan of God’s throne is created. A person who intentionally kills others already has a “bartizan of murder” created within them. It cannot be stopped. Even the person themselves cannot overcome it. A person who commits suicide doesn’t do it just because they feel bad. A “bartizan of death” has already been created. This Obadiah was a person for whom the Bartizan of the Throne was created.

2. [Must] Rightful, Inevitable, Absolute

And he found what he must do. There are people who work a lot pointlessly, but you must do what must be done. The things that are rightful to do. The things that must inevitably be done. The things that must absolutely be done for the sake of the future.

Have you ever felt ignored somewhere? If you do things this way (Rightful, Inevitable, Absolute), you will absolutely never be ignored. If you don’t do what is rightful and keep doing random things, you get ignored. Right? That is unavoidable. Even between family members, it’s unavoidable. Even between couples, it’s unavoidable. Between parents and children, it’s also unavoidable. Why? If you don’t do what is rightful and keep doing random things, you get ignored. Right? You must do what is strictly necessary. Then no one opposes you. I mean, who opposes you when you are doing what is necessary? Other people receive grace. They receive grace, thinking, “Oh my, how can they do that?” What must certainly be done is what must absolutely be done. Obadiah found this.

3. Choosing Crisis

As he did this, he chose crisis. This isn’t just a common dangerous thing, is it? You receive blessings when you do the Lord’s work now, but this was not just any dangerous matter. He chose this.

4. Absolute Impossibility

He challenged absolute impossibility. It had to be done, but it was absolutely impossible. How could one overcome King Ahab? It was absolutely impossible. He challenged it.

5. Nobody, Nothing

You must challenge Nobody and Nothing.

4. Absolute Impossibility (Word)

Have you ever thought about what “absolute impossibility” is? We usually give up on this. What must we do? For example, it’s all difficult when you start, isn’t it? Of all places, I went to a pioneering church in Yeongdo, and as I saw it, it was absolutely impossible. There were no conditions whatsoever to be able to do anything. Because of that, a tremendous answer came to me: “I must completely listen to the Word.” I knew there was no other way but this. I grasped the covenant that way, and in the book of Acts, the path began to be seen.

5. Nobody, Nothing (Power of the Throne)

There is no background. For example, there are no wealthy people, and when I tried to go out for medical missions, there wasn’t a single doctor; there was no one in the church. There are many now, but it was like that at that time. You must not give up here. The important thing—I saw the important thing. Within this, the only thing we can do is God and the power of the throne.

7 · 7 · 7

As I continued to pray for this, I received the answer this way: the 7 · 7 · 7 answer.

If you do it this way, it won’t be late. I must make the final bartizan of my life.

▣ Intro_ The Final Bartizan

Obadiah probably thought this: “This is the final bartizan. It’s okay even if I die. I must save the prophets.” He made this decision. No one would have known that such a great history would appear from this. You can do it this way too. Wherever you go, you must absolutely do it this way (Introduction).

▣ Main _ Today 300%

Then an important answer arrives. Since you enjoy this, you can make “Today” 300%. This is important. Isn’t it usually Specialization, Field-actuality, and Future-actuality? It is exactly 300% when these are done. Specialization, Field-actuality, and the System—that is 300%.

Today, as I saw Pastor Kim Hyung-gil, who leads the praise, next to me, I said to him: Go to Vanuatu, or call those people, and try having a concert together. Together. Then all the answers will come out. That is what you call “the field.”

Everyone, you keep thinking of “the field” as just a physical field or going somewhere, but that’s not it. I believe it is still possible to apply for this, but in the past, distinguished individuals became prosecutors. Or they became judges. Among them, the smart ones—and you can still apply for this—went into prison wearing prisoner clothes. For a week or a month. What do they do there? They are with the prisoners. They eat their food and since they are also prisoners, they are together like that. What did that person see? They saw the field correctly. Only then can they serve as a judge or prosecutor.

We keep missing things because we just think “field, field.” You must be able to make “today” 300%. I can provide the evidence.

1. The official of King Ahab

2. The disciple of Elijah

3. Hid 100 prophets

He hid 100 prophets whom King Ahab commanded to be killed. It is a tremendous thing. The question is how this is possible.

1. The official of King Ahab 〔Occupation〕 300%

For this Obadiah, his occupation had reached the 300% answer. King Ahab could not push Obadiah out. Even when they fought at Mount Carmel, who was the one who did the introductions? Obadiah did. That means he [Ahab] knew he was Elijah’s disciple, right? Yet, though he should have cut Obadiah, he didn’t cut him. 300%. He will absolutely never be cut. Wherever you go, don’t say you are being pushed out. It is 300%. Even if you graduate at the top of the best university, if you don’t create this, it’s hard to even eat. If you create this (300%), it becomes easy.

2. The disciple of Elijah 〔Prayer〕 300%

He is a disciple of Elijah—what does this mean? Prayer 300%. Wherever I go, I ask: “What is the thing I must strictly do right now?” Me—Rightful. Then, “What is the thing strictly needed in that field?” Inevitable. “What is the thing strictly needed for the future?” Absolute. Even if you just ask these questions, 300% begins. Right? Because God provides the answer. What matters is whether what we grasped is correct or not. Businesspeople and elders are rightfully destined to receive answers. Because God has prepared them. I’m saying God has prepared the bartizan. You just need to find it.

3. Hid 100 prophets 〔Evangelism, Missions〕 300%

The fact that he hid 100 prophets means that 300% regarding evangelism and missions was prepared. You know the content well.

If you just find this (Main Body), it will unconditionally work. God’s work is bound to occur. So specialization is understood to an extent, but the field is continually missed. The field. It is that way with everything. You must not miss the field. How you see the field is everything. Only when there is a field is there a future, and only when there is a field is there preparation; if you cannot see the field, you cannot see anything.

Therefore, a person who correctly does healing ministry must go to mission regions. Paul was like that. Not the healing that a doctor does. It goes much further beyond that. He healed spiritual things and healed the root, didn’t he? It’s what the Nephilim healed. Paul saw the field correctly. And where did he go? To the synagogues. What is this? He saw the future. Even when he went to evangelize, he didn’t go for a “big” evangelization at all. He always went after receiving guidance through fasting. Right? Always. Even when the door was closed, he prayed. To Macedonia. In Acts 19, before going to Rome, what appears in verses 1 through 7? Up to verse 8. It comes out exactly as it was done in Mark’s Upper Room. He enjoyed 300% like this. It cannot help but work.

▣ Conclusion_ 300%

Then the conclusion emerges. What kind of things happen when you enjoy this 300% and pray?

1. Now

Now. This means you accurately grasped God’s covenant. If it isn’t 300%, it isn’t accurate. He grasped this accurately. What happens when you grasp it?

Trinity: The Triune God works. He has no choice but to work. Because you possess the covenant accurately. You don’t even need to do big things. You just need to possess the covenant accurately. Whether I am good at it or bad at it isn’t needed. You must be a person who has grasped the covenant accurately. Whether I have ability or not doesn’t matter. You must grasp the covenant accurately.

Darkness: At this time, the opposite thing happens. Darkness is broken.

Throne: What is this? We said Heavenly, Thronely, Eternally, but the blessing of the throne descends. Now. It is happening that way now. If the covenant is accurate. From the moment you find the accurate answer one day, something is being done. Right? Even when a problem comes, the covenant must be accurate.

2. 3 Concentrations, 3 Settings, 3 Answers

Then what is being done? You are grasping the covenant and praying right now—what is being done when you pray? If 3 concentrations occur, you are healed first. Then, even if you just stay still, God’s answers come. 3 settings. I’m saying these are the things happening now for the person doing this (300%). The answer comes in advance. 3 answers. These are being created now.

3. Bartizan, Journey, Guidepost

Then, you are grasping this covenant now, and the bartizan is continuously being created; because the bartizan is being created, you go on the journey, and eventually, you leave a guidepost.

In the first service sermon, Joseph went as a slave, but he became the household manager. That is the guidepost. He went to prison, and he became the manager there as well. He met the king and became the Governor. This is the guidepost. It remains in the record. It is created exactly like this.

4. Benefit – Trials, Conflicts, Crises

In a way, should you do nothing? That is also okay. Because God is with you, if the covenant is accurate, trials, conflicts, and difficulties in many matters become a benefit to you. “Oh no, a trial came to us today.” It is a benefit. Conflicts come, problems arise, and a crisis arrives. That is a benefit. Right? Because of that, I come to find everything.

5. Imprint – Absolute Answer

It doesn’t end there. If you grasped the Word today, it is the same for tomorrow; on the day you grasped that Word, you must imprint that Word. Most people just pass it by. They might not even know: “What sermon did I hear last Sunday?” Those people, such people do not know. “What did I do?” It isn’t imprinted to this extent. Something must be imprinted, shouldn’t it? Then you can forget everything else. Do we memorize everything if we write it down? We can’t. The moment it is imprinted, my spirit lives with just that, and everything is revived. Then what is being done today? “I must truly grasp the accurate covenant like Obadiah.” That is 300%. Then the work has no choice but to occur. If this is imprinted, you take root with it. Right? Because it becomes your nature with that, eventually, an absolute answer that no one can block arrives.

Then what kind of decision must you make? Within the church, and for the individuals you meet, help the people who have met a crisis. It is a very big thing. Right? If a crisis comes to the church, or a difficulty arrives, I devote myself there. Like Obadiah. That is a true church officer. A difficulty came to the church? You go “all-in” there. Even if an individual saint suffers difficulty? You help that person. We do the opposite. We make things difficult for the person having a hard time, and we flatter someone if they are “good.” Right? Go visit the people who failed. Elders, try visiting the sick. That person gains immense strength. A minister can go, but people think it’s natural for a minister to go. Right? If a problem arises for a saint, the minister naturally goes. However, when church officers, businesspeople, and elders go, it is different—this is different. Even for a new family member, if the elders visit, what happens? They get the feeling: “Ah, I am a member of that church.” This is how important you, as a church officer and businessperson, are.

When one person, Obadiah, who grasped the accurate covenant emerged, what kind of things happened? It didn’t end with this (Main Body). 7,000 disciples remained. Right? He gave influence to all of them. It didn’t end with that. The Dothan movement occurred. He defeated the nation of Aram without fighting. It happens like this.

I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that today becomes a day where you grasp the covenant and grasp the accurate covenant. I will pray.

Prayer. May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, who is the King of kings, and the infinite love of God, and the working of the Holy Spirit who is working now, be upon all businesspeople who have grasped the accurate covenant, upon the church officers, and upon the church officers of Vanuatu, always from now until eternity. Amen.

Himno: Grata Certeza (En Jesucristo)

Fanny Crosby

¡Grata certeza, soy de Jesús!

Hecho heredero de eterna luz;

Su Espíritu Santo vive en mí,

Por Su sangre limpio soy por fin.

Esta es mi historia, este es mi canto,

Alabando a mi Salvador todo el día;

Esta es mi historia, este es mi canto,

Alabando a mi Salvador todo el día.

Someto todo con gran placer,

Visiones de gloria puedo tener;

Ángeles bajan con gran amor,

Ecos de gracia del Salvador. (Coro)

Someto todo, en paz estoy,

En mi Salvador muy feliz voy;

Viendo Su rostro, mirando hacia allá,

Lleno de Su amor y Su bondad. (Coro)

Lectura de la Escritura: Génesis 3:8-24 (NVI)

8 Cuando el hombre y la mujer oyeron la voz de Dios el Señor, que se paseaba por el jardín a la hora en que sopla la brisa, corrieron a esconderse de él entre los árboles del jardín. 9 Pero Dios el Señor llamó al hombre y le dijo: «¿Dónde estás?».

10 El hombre contestó: «Escuché que andabas por el jardín y tuve miedo porque estoy desnudo; por eso me escondí».

11 «¿Y quién te ha dicho que estás desnudo? —le preguntó Dios—. ¿Acaso has comido del fruto del árbol que te prohibí comer?».

12 El hombre respondió: «La mujer que me diste por compañera me dio de ese fruto, y yo comí».

13 Entonces Dios el Señor le preguntó a la mujer: «¿Qué es lo que has hecho?».

«La serpiente me engañó, y comí», contestó ella.

14 Dios el Señor dijo entonces a la serpiente: «Por causa de lo que has hecho, ¡maldita serás entre todos los animales domésticos y entre todos los animales salvajes! Te arrastrarás sobre tu vientre y comerás polvo todos los días de tu vida.

15 Pondré enemistad entre tú y la mujer, y entre tu simiente y la de ella; su simiente te aplastará la cabeza, pero tú le herirás el talón».

16 A la mujer le dijo: «Multiplicaré tus dolores en el parto, y con dolor darás a luz a tus hijos. Tu deseo te llevará a tu esposo, y él te dominará».

17 Al hombre le dijo: «Por cuanto le hiciste caso a tu mujer y comiste del árbol del que te prohibí comer, ¡maldita será la tierra por tu culpa! Con penosos trabajos comerás de ella todos los días de tu vida. 18 La tierra te producirá cardos y espinas, y comerás hierbas del campo. 19 Comerás el pan con el sudor de tu frente, hasta que vuelvas a la tierra, pues de ella fuiste tomado; porque polvo eres y al polvo volverás».

20 El hombre llamó Eva a su mujer, porque ella sería la madre de todo ser viviente.

21 Dios el Señor hizo ropa de piel para el hombre y su mujer, y los vistió. 22 Y dijo Dios el Señor: «El ser humano ha llegado a ser como uno de nosotros, pues tiene conocimiento del bien y del mal. No vaya a ser que extienda su mano y tome también del fruto del árbol de la vida, y lo coma y viva para siempre». 23 Entonces Dios el Señor expulsó al ser humano del jardín del Edén, para que trabajara la tierra de la cual había sido hecho. 24 Luego de expulsarlo, puso al oriente del jardín del Edén a los querubines y una espada ardiente que se agitaba en todas direcciones para guardar el camino que lleva al árbol de la vida.

Mensaje: El estado de aquellos que han dejado a Dios

Ningún héroe, rey o intelectual ha tenido éxito mientras ha estado separado de Dios. Incluso si alcanzaron el éxito mundano, no tenían paz; y al no ser hijos de Dios, no podían entrar en Su abrazo. Por esto ha habido más de 16,000 guerras en la historia. Incluso hoy, la paz verdadera está ausente. La gente intenta todo para hallar gozo, pero es en vano.

1. La gente vive sus vidas en culpa.

La humanidad se escondió entre los árboles, lejos del Señor (Génesis 3:8).
Tenían miedo porque estaban desnudos (Génesis 3:10).
Sentían vergüenza y humillación (Génesis 3:11).

2. La humanidad vive sin conocer la causa del fracaso.

Dios llamó a Adán y preguntó dónde estaba (Génesis 3:9).
Él no se dio cuenta de cuán temible podía ser el pecado (Génesis 3:11).
Dio excusas por su propio error (Génesis 3:12).
Ella pasó la responsabilidad de su pecado a otros (Génesis 3:13).

3. Quienes están separados de Dios viven bajo maldiciones.

La serpiente recibió una maldición peor que los demás animales (Génesis 3:14).
El dolor en el parto se volvió severo (Génesis 3:16).
La tierra fue maldita, produciendo solo mediante penoso trabajo (Génesis 3:17).
La tierra perdió su valor original (Génesis 3:18).

4. Dios dio el Evangelio (Génesis 3:15).

Sabiendo que el hombre no podía resolver su problema, Dios prometió enviar a la simiente de la mujer para aplastar la cabeza de la serpiente.

5. Dios dio una oportunidad (Génesis 3:22-24).

Hemos sido salvados por gracia (Efesios 2:8). Dios nos ha dado las bendiciones de 24, 25 y la eternidad. Si disfrutamos estas bendiciones, Dios nos concederá una bendición del “300%”: la plenitud del Espíritu Santo, levantándonos como testigos.

Tres Concentraciones: 24

Concentrarse tres veces al día (mañana, tarde y noche) es la práctica de “24”.
Tres Configuraciones: 25

Al hacer esto, las cosas del Trono (Plataforma, Torre de Vigilancia y Antena) se establecen en nosotros. Esta es la manifestación del poder de Dios: “25”.
Tres Respuestas: Eternidad

Dios nos dará respuestas que permanecen para siempre: Respuesta (problemas), Renovación (conflictos) y Oportunidad (crisis). Esto es la Eternidad que trasciende el tiempo y el espacio.

Hymn
Blessed Assurance
^{Fanny Crosby}

Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
O, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood.

This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior all the day long;
This is my story, this is my song,
Praising my Savior all the day long.

Perfect submission, perfect delight,
Visions of rapture now burst on my sight;
Angels descending, bring from above
Echoes of mercy, whispers of love. Refrain

Perfect submission, all is at rest,
I in my Savior am happy and blest;
Watching and waiting, looking above,
Filled with His goodness, lost in His love. Refrain

Scripture Reading
Genesis 3:8-24

Then the man and his wife heard the sound of the Lord God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and they hid from the Lord God among the trees of the garden. ⁹But the Lord God called to the man, “Where are you?”

¹⁰He answered, “I heard you in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; so I hid.”

¹¹And he said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?”

¹²The man said, “The woman you put here with me—she gave me some fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”

¹³Then the Lord God said to the woman, “What is this you have done?”

The woman said, “The serpent deceived me, and I ate.”

¹⁴So the Lord God said to the serpent, “Because you have done this,

“Cursed are you above all livestock
    and all wild animals!
You will crawl on your belly
    and you will eat dust
    all the days of your life.
¹⁵And I will put enmity
    between you and the woman,
    and between your offspring and hers;
he will crush your head,
    and you will strike his heel.”

¹⁶To the woman he said,

“I will make your pains in childbearing very severe;
with painful labor you will give birth to children.
Your desire will be for your husband,
and he will rule over you.”

¹⁷To Adam he said, “Because you listened to your wife and ate fruit from the tree about which I commanded you, ‘You must not eat from it,’

“Cursed is the ground because of you;
    through painful toil you will eat food from it
    all the days of your life.
¹⁸It will produce thorns and thistles for you,
    and you will eat the plants of the field.
¹⁹By the sweat of your brow
    you will eat your food
until you return to the ground,
    since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
    and to dust you will return.”

²⁰Adam named his wife Eve, because she would become the mother of all the living.

²¹The Lord God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them. ²²And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” ²³So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. ²⁴After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.

Message
The State of Those Who Have Left God

No hero, king, or intellectual has ever been successful while separated from God. Even if they achieved worldly success, they had no peace; and because they were not children of God, they could not enter His embrace. This is why there have been more than 16,000 wars in history, including two Great World Wars. Even today, true peace is absent from this world. People try everything within their power to find joy, yet it is all in vain. They find themselves in greater suffering, sinking deeper into this corrupted world.

1. People live their lives in guilt.
1) Mankind hid among the trees of the garden, away from the Lord (Genesis 3:8).2) They were afraid because they were naked (Genesis 3:10).
3) They felt shame and humiliation (Genesis 3:11).

2. Mankind lives life without knowing the cause of failure.
1) God called Adam and asked where he was (Genesis 3:9).
2) He did not realize how fearsome sin could be (Genesis 3:11).
3) He gave excuses for his own wrongdoing (Genesis 3:12).
4) She passed the responsibility for her sin to others (Genesis 3:13).

3. Those who are separated from God live within curses.
1) The serpent received a curse worse than the other livestock and animals (Genesis 3:14).
2) The pain in childbearing became severe, and the husband was to rule over the wife (Genesis 3:16).
3) The land was cursed, yielding only through painful toil (Genesis 3:17).
4) The land had lost its original value (Genesis 3:18).

4. God gave the Gospel (Genesis 3:15).
Knowing that mankind could not solve their problems, God promised to send the offspring of the woman to crush the head of the serpent.

5. God gave them an opportunity (Genesis 3:22-24).

Conclusion. We have been saved through grace (Ephesians 2:8). To those of us who have received salvation, God has given the blessings of 24, 25, and eternity. If we enjoy these blessings from now on, God will grant us a ‘300%’ blessing—the filling of the Holy Spirit. He will raise us up as witnesses to save others.

1. Three Concentrations: 24
Concentrating three times a day—morning, afternoon, and night—is the practice of “24”.

2. Three Settings: 25
When we do this, the things of the Throne—platform, watchtower, and antenna— are set within us. This manifestation of God’s power is “25”.

3. Three Answers: Eternity
God will grant us answers that remain forever. These—answer (problems), renewal (conflicts), and opportunity (crises)—are the things of Eternity that transcend time and space.

Forum and Prayer

The Fundamental Problem of Man

Scripture Reading
Genesis 3:1-7

Now the serpent was more crafty than any of the wild animals the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God really say, ‘You must not eat from any tree in the garden’?”

²The woman said to the serpent, “We may eat fruit from the trees in the garden, ³but God did say, ‘You must not eat fruit from the tree that is in the middle of the garden, and you must not touch it, or you will die.’”

⁴“You will not certainly die,” the serpent said to the woman. ⁵“For God knows that when you eat from it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.”

⁶When the woman saw that the fruit of the tree was good for food and pleasing to the eye, and also desirable for gaining wisdom, she took some and ate it. She also gave some to her husband, who was with her, and he ate it. ⁷Then the eyes of both of them were opened, and they realized they were naked; so they sewed fig leaves together and made coverings for themselves.

Message
The Fundamental Problem of Man

Many people are suffering from serious problems with no solution. These problems never disappear but only continue. Only the Bible reveals:

1. The incident of the Garden of Eden (Gen. 3:1-20)
Every problem started from this incident. Tempted by Satan, humanity left God. They could not hear God’s word and instead listened to what Satan said. This is the Genesis 3 incident, and it is still happening today.

2. The incident of the Nephilim (Gen. 6:4-5)
The incident of the Nephilim occurred during the time of Noah. Nephilim means being possessed by evil spirits. It means being seized by Satan.

3. The fallen tower of Babel (Gen. 11:1-8)
The incident of the Tower of Babel occurred. In Genesis 11, they built a tower to challenge God.

These three incidents continue to happen even now. Because of this, diseases of the spirit, heart, and mind occur.

1. The fundamental problem of man: the appearance of sin and Satan.

1) Ezekiel 28:12-14 Satan was an angel created, full of wisdom and glory.

2) Isaiah 14:10-14 He became corrupt and desired to become like God.

3) Revelation 12:1-9 Satan was hurled down with his angels.

4) Genesis 3:1-6 He deceived mankind, forcing them leave God.

5) Ephesians 2:1-2 He makes mankind, dead in their transgressions and sins, his servants, making them follow him and the ways of this world.

6) 2 Corinthians 11:14 He masquerades as an angel of light, deceiving mankind.

7) 1 Peter 5:8 He prowls around like a roaring lion looking for people to devour.

8) Judges 9:23 Evil spirits make mankind fall into animosity and conflict, and treachery.

9) 2 Corinthians 4:4-5 Satan blinds the minds of people so that they cannot see the glory of Christ.

10) Acts 16:16-18, Mark 5:1-10 Demons and legions of demons enter mankind. Mankind perishes from spiritual problems.

The Start of Eternal Things

Prayer Journal: February 21, 2026
17. May 2025 Core Training Service
Scripture Reading: Actc 19:8

Thank you. Today, what must our new family members do as well? You must grasp the message. Especially, if you start the infant, preschool, and children’s ministry, the greatest answer will come. Also, our church officers must absolutely grasp the covenant and do at least one thing regarding “How will I practice evangelism and missions?” Our pastors’ wives and pastors must establish one regional church each that focuses solely on evangelism while doing the 40-day Mount Olivet prayer.

As time passes, more than half of the entire world will go [this way]. Mental illnesses continue to arise. Because churches keep disappearing, spiritual problems continue to emerge. My expectation is that in places like Japan and America, more than half will suffer from mental illness. The spiritual problems of the 3 Organizations are serious, and in Japan, which should be the most blessed, idols are serious. Finally, Korean churches have also begun to close their doors. You must wake up and start the evangelism movement anew.

New family members, you must grasp the covenant that your entire lineage will be completely changed because of one person—you. To what extent should saints and church officers succeed in worship? You must ride the stream of the Word. As you receive that answer, it will reach a point where you think, “Ah, it seems the pastor will give me this kind of answer this Sunday.” You just need to enter into the Word to this extent. It becomes to the degree of, “Wait, I didn’t even say anything, but how does he know my home and my circumstances so well for the Word to come out like that?”

「 Eternity – Start 」
Today is the eternal start of the Infant, Preschool, and Children’s Mission Bureau. It is very important. However, some people receive a great answer from God even when they first believe. For example, a person like Rahab the prostitute; she believed for the first time, yet such works occurred. Some people received it without knowing when they were young, yet the work of world evangelization was achieved. Also, as travelers and scattered ones, they have no power, right? Yet world evangelization occurred through these people. Why is that?

▣ Introduction_ Accurate Covenant (Mission) – [ 7 · 7 · 7 ]

It is because they grasped the accurate covenant.

1. Posterity (Strength, Happiness)
Mainly when the accurate covenant is delivered to the posterity, God works with immense blessings beyond your knowing. That is why we do Sunday school, children’s ministry, and so on. No matter how much you try to grasp the accurate covenant, if you don’t look at it this way, it doesn’t become the accurate covenant. Therefore, from now on, elders and church officers must unconditionally become the main figures of the Friday-Saturday-Sunday age. Answers that change the world will occur. Evidence will appear in the scripture as well, right? You must possess this mission: “Ah! I must deliver the accurate covenant to our posterity!” What is the accurate covenant?

2. Watchman of the Age (Bible – Completion)
It is making them into the watchmen of the age. It is establishing our posterity as the watchmen who save the age. However, it is simple.
1) Gospel – Power – Bartizan (Throne)
It is establishing the bartizan with this power of the Gospel. Without a bartizan, one cannot be a watchman.
2) Evangelism, Missions – Journey (Path)
And you must let them know what the journey of evangelism and missions is. Then, the tremendous blessing of the throne is seen. This must be seen. And the path of evangelism and missions is seen. Only then can they go on the journey.
If our Remnant realizes the Gospel and prays, it becomes like this. This is something that must be done. You didn’t do this? Then it is the worst parent and the worst church. If you don’t let the Remnant know this, that is a cursed church. That is why they close doors. People don’t know anything. Spiritually, a tremendous world war is going back and forth. When you grasp this covenant and try to practice evangelism, Satan trembles. So it is not that he is attacking you; he is struggling in agony. When you catch a snake, try hitting its head. Even as it dies, it moves significantly. It is struggling in agony.
3) Revival – Guidepost (Memorial)
Therefore, you must truly establish this guidepost of blessing that revives the church and the field. Then, a memorial stands on the path you and our Remnant go. This is seen. The power of the throne is seen, the path of evangelism and missions is seen, and the guidepost is seen.
This is the promise in the Bible, and Jesus completed it. Ultimately, this is the promise in the Bible, so you must not let them be ignorant of it. Jesus completely finished it at Mount Olivet before He left. This must be delivered. What must be done with this?

3. Imprint (Parent), Root (Teacher), Nature (Life)
It is imprinting it. This imprinting is mainly done through the parents. That is why for children, infants, preschoolers, and the expectant mothers/infants, the parent is more important. The rooting must mainly be done through the church. And this becoming one’s nature happens as the Remnant lives their life.
This important responsibility lies with us. Therefore, new family members must absolutely stake their lives. Why? Because you were in the spiritual problems of your lineage for a long time, you must completely grasp this covenant for your children and yourself.

Posterity (Strength, Happiness)
Now, the fact that this bartizan was made means that praying with this blessing becomes your greatest strength and makes you happy. That is the standard. Is praying truly a strength to you? Are you happy? Then the bartizan has been made. This must be delivered to the posterity.
When the posterity begins to receive answers, what is the greatest grace? “Enjoying this is my greatest strength. Doing this is what makes me happiest.” Then the bartizan has been formed. Then the rest is actually rooting and becoming one’s nature.
If there are those who are sick, do not worry; the illness is healed only when this is done. When you become filled with this, you are healed. In a way, if this isn’t done, there’s no need to be healed, is there? And it won’t be healed either. The pain can be treated temporarily at a hospital. But it isn’t “healed.” There is no such thing that arises suddenly. it has been a long time.
From now on, you must be careful with food and do everything. However, you must gain strength in prayer. I will talk about it tomorrow at the Church Officers’ Graduate School, but elders, deaconesses, and those who are older must gain strength now or it won’t work. You must do it now. To what extent must you gain strength? You must be okay even if you hardly slept and didn’t do anything. Even I think it is mysterious. When I ride a car or sit like this, I doze off. Why? Because I didn’t sleep. Even so, when I wake up, there’s nothing wrong.

Accurate Covenant (Mission) – [ 7 · 7 · 7 ]
This (7·7·7) prayer is so happy to me and it is a strength to me. As I was doing this (Intro 2), it became like this (7·7·7). It could be less for some or more for others; that differs by individual. As I continued this (Intro 2) prayer, it became like this (7·7·7). “Ah, this is the bartizan, journey, and guidepost!” The answers were seen like this. You must absolutely receive this blessing. If a parent does not deliver this blessing to their child? You are giving them the truly wrong thing. I say it again, you are making your child suffer for a lifetime. Therefore, the church must possess this mission. Parents almost cannot do it. So the church must do it. The church must not do other things. How can you overcome the darkness when you don’t even know the Gospel? How can you save the world when you don’t know evangelism and missions, and you don’t know the path? I must have the ability to establish this memorial, it must become 300%, but you can’t do it.

▣ Main _ Evidence

Evidence, you must grasp the evidence.

1. The Era of Egypt
Now, it is the era of Egypt. Because two people who grasped this covenant appeared, it was over. A person named Joseph grasped this covenant. And this (Intro 2) prayer began. A person named Jochebed grasped this covenant and delivered it to Moses. She delivered it starting right from the expectant mother/infant stage, from the infant stage. This is the evidence. In fact, there is no one who received as many answers as Moses. Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomy—Moses wrote these five, and it is all in there. So he imprinted, rooted, and natured it. It is so important. This is your mission. If the church doesn’t do this, it absolutely won’t work.

2. The Era of the Philistines
Look, isn’t the entire Bible the evidence? The era of the Philistines arrived and they continually tormented Israel. 14 judges appeared, but they couldn’t block it. Then, it just came out from one place. A person named Hannah prayed, and a figure named Samuel emerged. The posterity Samuel established was David. The figure David emerged. There is no need even to compete. The work just occurred. This is the evidence.
The word “Remnant” is not a word you can use carelessly. Every time the Gospel disappeared in the Bible, the posterity was established. So there are those who ask, “What is a Remnant?” but that is truly being ignorant. It is the most important word in the Bible, Remnant. The remaining one; they were gone after being taken as captives, but the remaining one. Israel had disappeared, but the remaining one. To put it simply, the one with the Gospel. To be more accurate, the posterity with the Gospel. That is what a Remnant is. Since the whole world must understand, we used the English word. If we said “remaining one” or “posterity [in Korean],” people in other countries wouldn’t understand.

3. The Era of Assyria, the Era of Aram
Since they don’t understand, this kind of thing arrives again. The era of Assyria arrives. Finally, this Assyria takes away Northern Israel. It is a miserable thing, isn’t it? They took away all the men of Israel. Do you know what they did? They sold them as slaves in the world market. It was a real mess, right? Even at this time, the posterity with the Gospel changed the world.
The era of Assyria and Aram is the same era. At this time, as you know, a figure named Hezekiah emerged. He contacted Assyria. “Until now, my father the king paid taxes to you, but from now on, I can’t.” He was right, wasn’t he? “Why must we pay taxes to you?” He was right, wasn’t he? They had paid because they were scared. Assyria was that strong of a nation. Then would Assyria just sit still? They brought an army of 185,000. They would eliminate them, that was it. As you know, how much did King Hezekiah pray? He prayed with his life on the line, and a miracle occurred. It was during the night when people sleep, and all 185,000 Assyrian soldiers died. Clearly, 2 Kings 19:35 says, “The angel of the Lord… struck down.” So Assyria was in a mess.
Because they continually miss this blessing—you must not miss this. Because they missed it, now they were caught by the nation of Aram. A figure emerged who defeated them without fighting: Elisha. He won without fighting. You must deliver this. He won without fighting, that’s it.

4. The Era of Babylon
They miss it again. So then the era of Babylon arrived. It arrives like this. Even then, those who possess this covenant emerge among the posterity. In fact, one person is enough. Figures like Daniel, the three young men, Esther, Zerubbabel, Haggai, and Nehemiah emerged. God overturned it. And eventually, they preached the Gospel and returned. Because the Gospel is not safe. Because they don’t know evangelism and missions. If you don’t know evangelism and missions, your posterity goes as slaves. You must go to preach the Gospel. You must not go as slaves.

5. The Era of Rome, the Era of Wanderers
Look at the last one. The era of Rome. Finally, the era of wanderers arrives. The people who possessed this (Intro) answer went and did world evangelization again. That is why we teach our posterity.

▣ Conclusion_ [ Practice ]

Practice it now. You must surely do several things.

[ 5 Streams ]
What you must take with you is, first, confirm the five streams. This is something you confirm. Because it is confirming, it is very easy.

Word: To what extent am I within the fulfillment of the Word right now? I must confirm. Because it differs by person, I must confirm.
Prayer: Because prayer answers clearly come, what kind of prayer am I within? I must confirm.
Worship: While listening to the entire message, what kind of Word stream am I within when I worship tomorrow? I must confirm.
Field: I must grasp the spiritual stream of the field I am in, the actual field.
Nations: I can’t go to the whole world. However, you must be doing “24” for at least one nation. That means you must know that stream. You don’t even know if the missionary is sick. There are that many people who don’t do “24.” Even if a missionary doesn’t ask for anything, you should know. People think it’s enough just to give money without any interest. That is why they never know. For example, in nations like those that are Muslim, they don’t even know if a missionary is taken away. So the word to do “24” isn’t about doing something difficult. It’s that you know the stream.

Witness
Then you will surely become witnesses. You go as witnesses, but where do you go? The Three Courts. I am going as a witness. The Friday-Saturday-Sunday age, the Meditation age. I’m saying you go as a witness. And tomorrow, you go to tomorrow’s worship with the evidence, seeing another stream and following the evidence. Today’s core is the Friday-Saturday-Sunday age. It means you summarize the entire week. It should be that way, right? It isn’t a simple message. You summarize and then tomorrow you ride the stream and start anew. Then the answers cannot fail to come. The answers that transcend time and space, truly unprecedented answers, will come to you.

Last Sunday’s 2nd service sermon was “Unprecedented,” and it needs a little more explanation. It is an unprecedented event like “the sun and moon stopping has never happened before and will never happen again.” That is correct. What would we do if the sun kept stopping? However, for all of you, there is an unprecedented blessing. Today the executive committee gathered, and I heard Pastor’s wife Park Woo-young and Senior Deaconess Im Myung-hee reporting on the children’s ministry; as I heard it, I had this thought inside: “They have received an unprecedented blessing!” Such people have not existed in the past and will not exist in the future. How great of a blessing is that? You must find this.

A certain Remnant became a judicial officer and came to greet me. He said, “I have received an appointment as a judge.” So I said, “There are many judges. There is no judge who correctly knows Christ. Remember only that.” You will stand as amazing witnesses.

And pastors’ wives and pastors—I’m going to talk about it at this retreat—start the 40-day prayer. Unconditionally establish the absolute bartizan, absolute journey, and absolute guidepost, and what do you call that combined? A regional church that evangelizes. You must not do other things. Buildings are not needed. That costs money. What organization? It’s not needed. All of that is fake. Gathering with people you are close to? That is even worse. What kind of church has “close people”? Having people you like and people you dislike—that is a non-believer. It’s not that. Try making a regional church that only does evangelism. If you make just a few, a great history will occur in your church. You don’t actually do it, but you just suffer and worry, don’t you? Do it. When you announce, “This is an evangelism regional church,” don’t do it carelessly.

In my case, once I do it, I must do it certainly. I can send someone else to the Saha region. When I sent Baek Woon-gyu to the Saha region, I sent him after preparing 300%. You shouldn’t just do it. You must prepare exactly 300%. The message is already prepared, and the person to go is prepared. This is 100%. As I looked at the field myself, I thought, “If I go to that field, I can just do a school.” Everything is prepared. Then, isn’t it about continuing here? To continue, what must be done? There must be a person there to continue it, and ultimately a disciple must emerge. Almost everything is prepared. I prepared all the people to continue helping there. What happened? Of all things, when he went, a younger brother I was close to in the past is running a restaurant there and is the head of the merchants’ association. Because he is very unique, he will help out very well. Just as it starts like that—could this truly be God’s plan?—he [Satan] struggles in agony. The entire city of Busan rose up and struggled in agony. It was beyond imagination. Because he struggled so much, I thought, “Perhaps it isn’t God’s time schedule yet,” and I folded it. Saying, “Let’s just do well in our village.” They were picking a fight. “Why are you coming to someone else’s neighborhood to evangelize?” was the word. To the word to me, “Why are you coming to someone else’s neighborhood to evangelize?” I said, “Didn’t Jesus say to go to the ends of the earth?” There are beggars, right? In the past, there were ragpickers. There were many beggars who picked up paper in the past. There aren’t any now, but there were many in the past. Ragpickers, beggars—but those people have a “territory” [nawabari]. They’ve decided among themselves, “You only pick up here. We’ll pick up here.” So I thought, “Wow, even this has a territory.” So I folded it, but I will start.

How? God did that so that you would do it. You must do it in the whole world. A regional church that only does evangelism, a regional church that completely receives the guidance of the Holy Spirit, a regional church that completely waits for the work of the Holy Spirit, a regional church that bears the fruit of the fullness of the Holy Spirit. That is what God wants. If you don’t do this, it is a big problem. Churches across the world are closing doors. Korea has also begun to close. A disaster arrives.

You must grasp this covenant, and I will view the rest as the scattered disciples.

Why Do We Need to Continue with the Word?

Hebrews 5:13-14. Anyone who lives on milk, being still an infant, is not acquainted with the teaching about righteousness. But solid food is for the mature, who by constant use have trained themselves to distinguish good from evil.

Just as a person with a weak digestive system cannot break down the nutrients they consume, a spiritually immature person lacks the capacity to process the challenges they face in life. They remain in a state of spiritual infancy, dependent on “milk” because they are not yet ready for the solid food of deeper truth (Hebrews 5:12-13).

Because they lack spiritual maturity, they have no strength to overcome their own weaknesses, the lingering scars of the past, the challenging reality of today, or the paralyzing uncertainty of the future. In this fragile state, they often suffer from broken hearts and fractured minds. Consequently, they become obsessed with the temporary things of the world and inadvertently harbor poisonous thoughts—loneliness, sorrow, hatred, resentment, and despair.

Without the Word of life to anchor them, they labor in vain, trapped in a cycle of grumbling and arguing like an infant. They find themselves driven by a “warped and crooked generation,” and the harder they try to escape the quicksand of life through human effort, the deeper and faster they sink into the pit (Philippians 2:14-16).

However, if one continues in the Word and chooses to obey, God’s love truly begins to work within them. This transformation is the evidence that they are living in Him (1 John 2:5). The Word is not just for comfort; it is the most powerful weapon in the believer’s arsenal against the devil.

We are commanded to “take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God” (Ephesians 6:17). Knowing this, Jesus Himself defeated the devil’s temptations by declaring the written Word of God (Luke 4:4, 8, 12). This is why a pure Word movement—the consistent, accurate proclamation of the gospel—is critical in our spiritual struggles against the enemy.

When the people of Jerusalem received the Word of God from Peter on the day of Pentecost, they didn’t just gain knowledge; they saw visions and dreamed dreams (Acts 2:17). That singular encounter with the Word empowered them to proclaim the gospel to the ends of the earth.

Likewise, if we continue to receive the Word with an open and obedient heart, the Holy Spirit will begin a transformative work in our lives that moves us from the frailty of infancy to the authority of spiritual maturity.

Prayer. Father, I keep Your Word in my heart this morning. By the power of Your living Word, heal me and strengthen me so that I may grow in faith in Christ Jesus and stand firm against the schemes of the enemy. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

He Abides
^{Herbert Buffum}

I’m rejoicing night and day
As I walk the narrow way,
For the hand of God in all my life I see;
And the reason of my bliss,
Yes, the secret all is this:
That the Comforter abides with me.

He abides, He abides;
Hallelujah, He abides with me!
I’m rejoicing night and day
As I walk the narrow way,
For the Comforter abides with me.

Once my heart was full of sin,
Once I had no peace within,
Till I heard how Jesus died upon the tree;
Then I fell down at His feet,
And there came a peace so sweet;
Now the Comforter abides with me.

He is with me everywhere,
And He knows my every care;
I’m as happy as a bird and just as free;
For the Spirit has control;
Jesus satisfies my soul,
Since the Comforter abides with me.

There’s no thirsting for the things
Of the world—they’ve taken wings;
Long ago I gave them up, and instantly
All my night was turned to day,
All my burdens rolled away;
Now the Comforter abides with me.

O For a Thousand Tongues to Sing
^{Charles Wesley}

O for a thousand tongues to sing
My great Redeemer’s praise,
The glories of my God and King,
The triumphs of his grace!

My gracious Master and my God,
Assist me to proclaim,
To spread through all the earth abroad
The honors of your name.

Jesus! the name that charms our fears,
That bids our sorrows cease;
‘Tis music in the sinner’s ears,
‘Tis life and health and peace.

He breaks the power of cancelled sin,
He sets the prisoner free;
His blood can make the foulest clean;
His blood availed for me.

To God all glory, praise, and love
Be now and ever given
By saints below and saints above,
The Church in earth and heaven.

Leader: For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,
People: that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Leader: For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world,
People: but to save the world through him.

Leader: Whoever believes in him is not condemned,
People: but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because they have not believed in the name of God’s one and only Son.

Leader: This is the verdict: Light has come into the world,
People: but people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil.

Leader: Everyone who does evil hates the light,

Jesus Paid It All
^{Elvina M. Hall}

I hear the Savior say,
“Thy strength indeed is small,
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Find in Me thine all in all.”

Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

Lord, now indeed I find
Thy pow’r and Thine alone,
Can change the leper’s spots
And melt the heart of stone. Refrain

For nothing good have I
Where by Thy grace to claim;
I’ll wash my garments white
In the blood of Calv’ry’s Lamb. Refrain

And when, before the throne,
I stand in Him complete,
“Jesus died my soul to save,”
My lips shall still repeat. Refrain

Scripture Reading
Exodus 3:1-18
^{Carmetta Williams}

Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the wilderness and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. ²There the angel of the Lord appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up. ³So Moses thought, “I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does not burn up.”

⁴When the Lord saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, “Moses! Moses!”

And Moses said, “Here I am.”

⁵“Do not come any closer,” God said. “Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.” ⁶Then he said, “I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.” At this, Moses hid his face, because he was afraid to look at God.

⁷The Lord said, “I have indeed seen the misery of my people in Egypt. I have heard them crying out because of their slave drivers, and I am concerned about their suffering. ⁸So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey—the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. ⁹And now the cry of the Israelites has reached me, and I have seen the way the Egyptians are oppressing them. ¹⁰So now, go. I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt.”

¹¹But Moses said to God, “Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?”

¹²And God said, “I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain.”

¹³Moses said to God, “Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ Then what shall I tell them?”

¹⁴God said to Moses, “I am who I am. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I am has sent me to you.’”

¹⁵God also said to Moses, “Say to the Israelites, ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob—has sent me to you.’

“This is my name forever,
the name you shall call me
from generation to generation.

¹⁶“Go, assemble the elders of Israel and say to them, ‘The Lord, the God of your fathers—the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob—appeared to me and said: I have watched over you and have seen what has been done to you in Egypt. ¹⁷And I have promised to bring you up out of your misery in Egypt into the land of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites—a land flowing with milk and honey.’

¹⁸“The elders of Israel will listen to you. Then you and the elders are to go to the king of Egypt and say to him, ‘The Lord, the God of the Hebrews, has met with us. Let us take a three-day journey into the wilderness to offer sacrifices to the Lord our God.’

Our Father, who art in heaven,
…hallowed be thy name;
…thy kingdom come;
…thy will be done;
…on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
…as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation;
…but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom,
…the power and the glory,
…forever and ever.
Amen.

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

Benediction

The Preparation During the Remnant Years that Changes the World

Prayer Journal: February 20, 2026
17. May 2025 Remnant & TCK Study of Evangelism
Scripture Reading: Isaiah 6:13

Among the Remnants, there will be those who say, “I haven’t discovered my talent.” That might actually be better. A talent discovered right now without prayer might not be your own. Many people struggle for a lifetime because of that. There will be those who say, “Not much is working out for me right now.” That could be much better. Why is that? What is “working out” isn’t necessarily what is right. There are people who live well without knowing God at all. That becomes a problem later. Perhaps, the fact that you have no background and your family situation isn’t good might be better.

[RT – Preparation – World]
What is prepared during the Remnant years changes the world. So what must happen? It’s okay even if you have no background.

▣ Introduction _ Watchman

This must be realized during the Remnant years. This is what must be imprinted first. If success is imprinted first without this? It’s not much help. That success will “help” you for a lifetime while simultaneously making things not work out for a lifetime. If you become a judge or succeed without the Gospel entering you at all, you might have succeeded, but the Gospel may never enter you for your entire life. It won’t enter even when you are at the brink of death. This must happen first during the Remnant years.
If you know what a watchman is, you move the world.

[Bartizan]
If you know what a watchman is, you make a bartizan. It is the tremendous bartizan given by Christ.

[Journey] [Guidepost]
You make these. They are continuously made as you live. How important this is.

[Bartizan] – Prayer (Strength)
The fact that a bartizan was made means you haven’t just realized the Gospel, but you’ve realized what prayer is and what strength is.

[Journey] – Evangelism (Path)
Now, a journey means that while it’s true you’ve realized evangelism, the path is seen. How important this is.

[Guidepost] – Word (Memorial)
A guidepost means that while it’s true many Words are fulfilled, it is the true success of establishing a memorial. If you look closely at history, there are people who established historical memorials. Almost all of these people are the people of the covenant. For example, among several of the greatest events in the world, I think this is the greatest: The liberation of Black people. It is the greatest thing. Liberating Black people. Lincoln did it. That is why Lincoln is respected. Lincoln prayed from the time he was young. The covenant he grasped then was Galatians 3:28. He completely established a memorial. In Christ, whether a Gentile or anyone, all are one. It is important for Remnants to possess this.

▣ Main

Then, I will introduce several Bible verses.

1. Genesis 37:1-11
This is what Joseph possessed when he was young. It is continuously completed as you live. It happens in ordinary times, and it happens even more during times of crisis. When he was young, Joseph grasped the entire covenant. It surely changes the whole world. That is why the Remnant is important, and infant/preschool education is important. It is a matter of what you believe first. This is important. Whether strength is imprinted first or scars are imprinted first is extremely important. If scars are imprinted first, you live with those scars for a lifetime. People with large scars cannot even lead a normal life. If it becomes a scar, you collapse. In this way, the work you are doing is important.

3. 1 Samuel 3:1-10
It already becomes imprinted when you are young. The covenant is imprinted, and while praying, you already receive God’s answer. When young. “While Samuel was alive, there was no war.” The Philistines, who sparked so many wars, could not enter while Samuel was alive. “Those who saw Samuel believed in God.” What a blessing. You might know what the work you are doing is, but it is more than just knowing.

4. Psalm 78:70-72
There are many shepherds. But while other shepherds were sleeping and playing, at that time, he did praise, prayer, and the Word. If you look closely, he was a shepherd, but it said God raised him as a king. It is different.

5. 2 Kings 2:9-11
Elisha, who possessed the covenant from the time he was young, held onto this covenant even when parting with Elijah. The prophet Isaiah prophesied. “You will become captives in Babylon.” He prophesied. Because of that, Isaiah died. “When you go to Babylon, it will happen like this. The remnant—the stump—will arise.” He prophesied it all. Someone appeared who understood that. They probably heard it when they were young, right?

6. Daniel 1:8-9
It’s Daniel. He heard it when he was young and became a captive. Other people looked at Isaiah’s words as something ridiculous. They even killed Isaiah, calling him pro-Babylon. However, Daniel grasped that as the covenant. One person, Daniel, completely changed Babylon. He changed King Nebuchadnezzar. He interpreted all of Belshazzar’s dreams. Seeing Daniel, King Darius was also moved. What did Darius say? He said, “The Most High, living God.” Daniel even influenced King Cyrus. He issued a decree for Israel to return and build the temple. You don’t know what will happen. Saying “you don’t know” isn’t a word of unbelief; it’s because it’s so great that you cannot imagine it.

7. Acts 17:1, 18:4, 19:8
Why did Paul preach the Gospel so urgently? If he didn’t, in a little while, Israel would disappear. So he went to the synagogues. When Israel disappeared and people were scattered, these people were swept into it. These are the people to whom God gave strength. They did world evangelization. No one can block it. It transcends imagination. To what extent is the Gospel we possess? It cannot be expressed in words. John Calvin said so. There is a book called Institutes of the Christian Religion. I haven’t read it all. It’s too thick. Calvin wrote it. When he was 27. It’s amazing. At age 27, he completed the Institutes. At the very end, it is written: “I believe it, but I cannot express it in words.” You believe it, but you cannot express it in words. It’s like that.

▣ Conclusion _ Future

Find the future. Therefore, all of life right now is a camp. Everything is evidence. A difficulty has come? A matter of evidence has come. You are living a very hard life right now? You are creating a matter of evidence. People thought Israel was facing difficulty. “Why are you telling us to cross the Red Sea?” “Why are you telling us to cross the Jordan?” They crossed because of this, and because of that, the hearts of the enemies melted. Because of the suffering you endure, through that evidence, Satan is bound. I will pray.

Prayer. We thank God. Thank You for giving us the covenant. Thank You for giving us the grace to raise Remnants. May God receive infinite glory. In the future, may the work of breaking all darkness take place. May the darkness that blocks the Gospel within the church be completely bound. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
