Scripture Reading: Acts 17:1-9

The power of the covenant – (Romans 16:25-27)
Thank you. The question is: how great is the power of the covenant? Because the covenant is God’s Word, it carries the power of creation. From the moment you hold onto this covenant, answers begin. And He is saying that He will now reveal what was hidden before eternity. Because this is the covenant of the gospel, He is saying He will give what will remain forever and ever.

[ Moses – age 80, 40 years ]
There is something you must think about here today. Moses held onto the covenant, but the works arose when he was 80 years old. And it took 40 years to travel the wilderness. That is how it was.

[ David – 15 to 20 years ]
Also, David held onto the covenant, and it was fulfilled after about 15 to 20 years.

[ Paul – 250 (313) ]
Paul even spoke about world evangelization, and it was fulfilled after 250 years. It was fulfilled when Paul was no longer there.

So how should we understand this? We held onto the covenant, and then do answers come only after such a long time? That is a misunderstanding. From the moment you hold onto the covenant, continuous answers come, and they continue all the way to 250 years. This was in AD 313. It is not that Moses received no answer and only finally received one at 80. Answers continued to be fulfilled, and at the age of 80, the D-day came.

[ Bartizan, journey, guidepost ]
In the end, when we look back, we see that the bartizan, journey, and guidepost of the throne were all fulfilled. So this began from the moment you held onto the covenant. But most people receive this without knowing. Most people think there are no answers and then suddenly receive them.

[ Covenant – lifelong ]
Today, among us, there are those who know this covenant and hold onto it. When they held onto a lifelong covenant, works began from that moment. Many people receive without even knowing. As you are holding onto the covenant, most people have no idea what is taking place. Many people only realize it much later, after time has passed, and say, “Ah?” Some even realize it when their future generations see it and say, “Oh? Our mother and father prayed, and how is it that the answer has come this precisely?”

[ Grace ]
Even so, whether they realize it or not, the exact covenant is fulfilled at that time. The fact that we received it without knowing—that is grace.

[ Mission ]
But you now begin with understanding. This becomes a mission. We received salvation by grace. In one sense, without fully knowing. But now that we know, it is no longer just that. From this point on, it becomes a mission. So from the moment you hold onto this covenant, it begins to be fulfilled.
Among these, what is most important?
「What to teach the next generation first」 (Acts 17:1-9)
In 237 missions, what does God love most? The future generation. In one sense, the older people are footholds. The works will take place in the future generation. Because God hid them and then sent them, it is completely set for the Word to be fulfilled. If so, you must carry this for the future generation in your heart. What must you teach them most? What is the very first thing to teach the next generation? You must absolutely confirm this. This is the covenant we will hold today. Acts 17:1-9. What must we teach?

▣ Introduction
The covenant you hold onto in childhood lasts for life and continues. Especially the children among the 5,000 tribes have virtually no cultural benefits. So in one sense, the gospel can go in to them directly.
I asked myself, “What is evangelism in childhood?” For me, evangelism was so difficult. Pastors on the pulpit kept telling us to evangelize, but I did not know what to do. So they printed tracts and said, “Take a bundle as you go and give them out.” They told us to hand the tracts to people so they could read them at home. Even that was hard for me. Roaming around delivering tracts, without even knowing the gospel—this was so difficult. I was immature and did not understand evangelism. So I would put three tracts into some homes—just to finish faster. That is how hard evangelism was for me. “Why is evangelism so difficult that it does not work in this church? Is it really this hard?”
And why are our good, precious adults so tormented by poverty? You might say it was the times, but why are they so tormented by sickness? These three questions became my covenant in childhood, and they have continued to this day. It is amazing. The covenant that remnants hold in childhood determines their entire lives.

1. Developed countries – 40%
   The situation is quite serious now. Not all, but among the future generation in developed countries, in some schools about 40% of students are on medication. These are their own statistics. That is how it is in America. There are even schools where up to 40% of the students are told, “Let the teachers administer medication and make them study.” This is no small problem.
2. Developing countries – a state of abandonment
   In developing countries, children are in a completely abandoned state. Not just neglected, but completely abandoned. It is beyond imagination. Among African countries, Kenya is a relatively developed nation. Nairobi in Kenya is a famous city. When I went there, thousands of children were roaming around. That is the capital city. So I asked, “Do these children not go to school?” They said no. I asked the children, “Why are you not in school?” and they would not even answer. So I asked again, and though not all, they said, “There are schools.” But in the current situation, even though there are school buildings, there are no teachers to teach. So thousands of children wander the streets. I thought, “This is not a normal situation.” The international community says they are doing something, but I wonder what, because people are literally starving to death. Many are sick from drinking contaminated water. For those of us in a developed country like Korea, it is hard to understand. When you open your refrigerator, it is filled with clean water—how can you understand? But those children drink dirty, stagnant water.
3. Children who are in Korea
   More importantly, we must think about the children who are here in Korea. The teams working with multiethnic ministry and 237 work must think fast and correctly about this. These children here in Korea have parents, of course. The multiethnic families who have come here are often unable to clearly talk about how difficult their situation is. Whatever their hardships may be, we do not know. So those who are doing 237 ministry must be most aware of these things.
   They might not say it out loud, but the issues that come up most often are visas—perhaps the biggest issue. You must be somewhat specialized to handle this. Next is employment. Then, following that, come issues with the children’s education. These are the kinds of problems that arise. And if the visas do not work out, the family cannot stay together and must go back. They are all struggling with the same concerns. Recently, I listened to an interview President Lee Jae-myung had with some scientists. In that interview, a foreigner stood up and asked a question. He said he was studying here for his PhD, but his current visa did not allow his children to stay with him. So he was in a situation where he would have to go back. I do not know the exact visa conditions, but he said this in front of the president.
   We must care for such people like family within the church. It is not that they are thinking, “We must get help from everyone,” but they have real difficulties, and we must not be ignorant of them. We must pray together and walk with them.
   I mentioned this once before: some people came to Korea to get married. Among them were those who had been deceived. Some had already been married before and had children in their home countries. Then they married again and came to Korea. After living with their Korean husbands and seeing how good they were, they eventually shared their situation. Their husbands said, “All right,” and brought the children over. But those children could not legally enroll in school. And there are tens of thousands of such children. I was shocked. “So this is how it is.” If I had known, I would have started a school right away. Those children’s school would not even need elaborate facilities. Just gather them and teach them.
   This is how we must raise the future generation. God has hidden treasures there. So at least in our church, what must we teach the next generation?

▣ Main

1. Acts 17:3 [ Christ ]
   First, in verse 3 of chapter 17, he gives an explanation about Christ. He explained about Christ, and we must clearly make Christ known to the children. We must clearly explain the term “Christ.” This term is the way, the truth, and the life that leads to the Triune God. This word “Christ” is extremely important.

1)Perfection
So we must teach the perfection of Christ.

(1) John 8:56
To solve our eternal past, what is first? The Christ who existed before eternity. In John 8:56, what does He say? “Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad.” This is an astounding statement. The Jews lost their minds when they heard it. “How old are you?” they asked. They did not know that Christ had been prophesied before eternity and that knowing this name alone would bring salvation. It is an astounding name.
Someone once wrote to me, saying, “Pastor, when you said in your message that Christ solved my past, I was so thankful.” That is right.

(2) John 1:14
In John 1:14, He became flesh, taking on a human body, and came to save people.

(3) Acts 3:6
Even now, as in Acts 3:6, when we command in the name of Jesus of Nazareth, works arise. What is this? The resurrected Christ. Even now, we can use that authority in His name.

(4) Revelation 20:1-15
It does not end there. He has also solved the problems of the future. Christ will come again as the Lord of the Second Coming. In Revelation 20:1-15 we find the record of Christ who will come again as the Lord of the Second Coming.

(5) Revelation 21:1-17
In Revelation 21:1-17, we see the eternal Christ who will stand as the Judge forever. In other words, if that person is a child whom God has chosen, then the moment this one word enters them, works arise completely.
The ones in whom the least works occur are often those who have attended church a long time—because they do not know. They have been in church too long and are spiritually tormented. But someone who has been spiritually tormented for a long time receives Christ and is finished. That person stakes their life. Some are constantly tormented by suicidal thoughts and hear voices. When they believe and receive Jesus Christ, works arise. That is why shamans often sincerely believe—because they have experiences. After great suffering, they receive Christ and answers come. Of course, Christ is also the complete answer for you.

2)Fullness of the Holy Spirit
So He guides you completely from beginning to end. He also guides your future. He promised this. Right? “He will teach you all things and will tell you what is yet to come.” This is what we call the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Through Christ, He gives this kind of strength.

3)7·7·7 300%
Not only that—what else? He gives you the bartizan, journey, and guidepost so that you can succeed 300%. The remnants among the multiethnic peoples whom God has prepared will have all darkness crumble before this one word, Christ. We have heard the word “Christ” so often that we say, “What, Christ?” But in darkness, it is the perfect light.

2. Acts 17:2 [ The perfection of worship and prayer ]
   Second, what must we teach? Verse 2 of chapter 17. What does it say there? In verse 2 it says, “On three Sabbath days…” What is this “new Sabbath”? We must make these remnants know perfectly what worship and prayer are. “But will children understand?” That is your thought. If the Holy Spirit works, they will understand. Right? People also say, “Will new believers understand?” That is truly an ignorant statement. When the Holy Spirit works, people understand even when they hear it for the first time. “No one can say, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ except by the Holy Spirit.” 1 Corinthians 12:3. Jesus Himself said, “If you ask in my name, the Counselor, the Holy Spirit, will be with you forever. He will let you know the future and remind you of everything I have said to you.” That is how it is. We must teach what worship and prayer are.

1)The Lord of prayer (the Triune God)
So then, the Lord of prayer is not us. Right? When you pray, the Lord of prayer—the Triune God—works invisibly.

2)The background of prayer – throne, kingdom, and its work
We must teach what the background of prayer is. What is the background of prayer? Today, we have worshiped with the three feasts. That is the background: the throne, the kingdom, and the work of the kingdom. Just wait and see. You worship on Sunday, hold onto the Word, and pray—and in your field, the throne, the kingdom, and the work of the kingdom are surely fulfilled. This is the background of prayer.

3)The method of prayer
So then, what is the method of prayer? Why must I pray?

(1) Imprint (brain)
Our prayer not only connects to the throne, but it becomes imprinted in us. It becomes imprinted in our brains. That is why it is very important to pray out loud.

(2) Root (soul)
Our prayer becomes rooted in our souls.

(3) Nature (throne)
Our prayer makes our very nature one that communicates with the throne. This is prayer. So worship is no ordinary thing. Prayer is important. If our precious remnants can listen properly to the message of Christ and pray, it is essentially finished.

3. Acts 17:1 [ The perfection of answers ]
   So they went into the synagogue. Why did they go into the synagogue? Not only prayer, but the perfection of answers.

1)Talents 300%
God will cause the talents of our remnants to reach 300%.

2)Work 300%
For the remnants who have come from those dark countries, God will make their work 300%. Otherwise, world evangelization cannot be done.

3)Evangelism and missions 300%
We must teach them this. If I were teaching them, I would teach like this: “From now on, do not pray to be the ones helped, but pray to be the ones who help. From now on, though we must pray, ‘Lord, send workers,’ do not merely pray that way—pray, ‘Lord, allow us to send workers.’”
RLS has become such a wonderful school now. It is a place where gifted children gather. At first, runaway kids were the ones there. Runaway kids had come and were staying in the church. No matter how foolish we are, we still had to do something. We had to make a school. At that time, I preached in the first service here, then went up to Seoul for the second service and came back. I counseled them on the airplane while flying with them. I told them, “First of all, you are an extraordinary child. You have done three things I could not do. I wanted to run away from home but could not. I wanted to quit school but could not; I just kept attending. I did not want to go to church but went because I had to. You have done all three. You are an amazing person. From now on, start from here. Take this character you have and start from here.”
So should we name the school “The House of Runaway Kids”? Of course not. From the beginning I said, “You are future leaders.” And now they are truly doing that role. The RLS students are now playing a role in leading the world. Truly. “You must enjoy the 300% blessing of evangelism and missions that God gives you, and through that, carry out world evangelization.” Even if they do not fully do this, we must teach correctly. Among the many things God has given us, even if we cannot do everything, we must still speak about God’s things.

▣ Conclusion
What is the conclusion?

1. The first opportunity
   For these children, and for the 237 children you will meet in the future, as I said before, they have never heard this once. You must always remember that. Why must we clearly tell them this? Because they have never heard it. It is the first time. This might sound a bit proud, but if you do not tell them, there is no one else. Right?
2. The last opportunity
   It is the last opportunity for those children.
3. The eternal opportunity
   So how must we form them? We must imprint them so that they will never forget, for eternity. We do not know when we will see them again. It is an eternal opportunity.
   So, as you did well last time also, when those children come, we must absolutely plant into them the sure gospel, testimonies backed by prayer, and the sense of their mission. If needed, we must also start something new.
   When we first moved into a 35-pyeong basement, there was one thing we did that has never stopped. The entire church took turns fasting one day at a time. It says Paul fasted and prayed when he first went out to the mission field. So he completely received the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Because you prayed like that, you are now playing the leading role in world evangelization.
   So from now on, for the sake of temple construction—since we must have the three courtyards—how about we set up a relay of daily fasting prayer for the building? For those who do not know how to pray, just being hungry is prayer. Saying, “Oh, I’m hungry,” is prayer. In this way, we connect faith and the covenant. During the North Korea missions conference, I said, “Pray in relay every day.” Fasting one day is actually good for your body as well. So there is nothing bad about it. How about starting a relay of prayer, where the entire congregation continues to pray without ceasing until the temple construction is fully done? In that, multiethnic peoples, remnants, and TCK children will naturally be included.
   What would have happened if Philip had said something else to the Ethiopian eunuch? It would have been a disaster. He explained Christ. Christ is the name before which all forces of darkness tremble. It is the name that broke the power of Satan. He is the true priest who took all the curses we were supposed to receive. We could never meet God, so He made known to us the true way—the true prophet, not just any prophet. And He is not just any king. He is the true King. Not merely someone who wears priestly garments and performs rituals, but the true priest.
   I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that this week the eyes of your life may be opened to see the blessing of the covenant being fulfilled. Let us pray.

Prayer. Let the covenant begin and be fulfilled throughout this week. For the people of the Lord who pray all day long inside the covenant, grant them the covenant You gave to the tabernacle, the temple, and the Mark’s upper room church. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

2025.11.16 Sunday 1st Service
Thanksgiving Sunday
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-8

1. Find the last mission God wants to give you.
Thank you. When we meet people and talk, there are times we begin to think about something. Most people, if you look at them, have already set everything according to their own thoughts. When you see such a person, you feel, “Ah, this person will no longer have any answers!” And when you see someone who is working very hard in a strange way to succeed, you become worried again. Those two look different, but they are the same. Giving up according to one’s own thoughts or moving according to one’s own thoughts—those two are the same. The covenant you must absolutely hold today is this: even today God gives you new grace, but there is a last mission He surely wants to give you. You must find that. The reason God has kept you alive is that He has prepared a special blessing for you.

1)If you think that does not exist, you will enter the greatest suffering.
If you think that does not exist, you go into the greatest suffering. Why? Moses thought it was over, even though he had not even started. So he suffered to the point of death. Even though he had not even begun, Elijah also said, “It is finished.” There are many people like that.

2)By giving up according to your own thoughts, you stay quietly inside a frame or struggle in the wrong way.
Some people just remain quietly inside a small frame. Others keep struggling in the wrong direction. Both are loss.

2. The Festival of Ingathering (Thanksgiving) – Started at the Exodus, completed by Jesus in Mark’s upper room.
So today we also call Thanksgiving “the Festival of Ingathering.” It is called Thanksgiving because the harvest is gathered, and it is called the Festival of Ingathering because the harvest is stored. This feast began at the time of the Exodus. And in Mark’s upper room, Jesus completed this feast. It is connected in such an important way.

3. Hardship – The best timetable.
The hardship in Egypt and then the hardship of the early church were the best timetables. You must not miss this either. Are you going through hardship? It is probably the best timetable. For us, it feels very painful. But within God’s plan, it is the best timetable. There has never been a time when it was not so. Because we are human, when suffering comes, it is hard. Right? How difficult must it have been for Moses, who ran away as a murderer and lived in hiding for forty years? That was his forty years in Midian. But it was the best time. We easily miss such important things.

▣ Introduction_ What God wants to give first in hardship
Among these, in the hardships of Egypt and the early church, there is something God wanted to give first. The blessing of Thanksgiving that you must absolutely see is in the main message, but there is a blessing you must first receive.

1. The gospel – “Go to offer the blood sacrifice.” Forty days of speaking about the kingdom of God.
   “Moses, go to offer the blood sacrifice.” That is what God said. And at the very end, it says Jesus spoke about the things concerning the kingdom of God for forty days. In these hardships, what does He want us to realize? He wants us to realize what the gospel is.

1)The gospel is that the Triune God makes you His children and takes responsibility for you.
The gospel is the important beginning in which the Triune God completely makes you His children and takes responsibility for you.

2)Exodus 3:18 – On the day of the blood sacrifice, the power of Satan was broken.
On the day they offered the blood sacrifice, the power of Satan was broken. This is the gospel.

※ “It is finished” (John 19:30) – It is over. There is no need to do anything else.
The moment I understood the gospel, I understood Jesus’ words, “It is finished.” It is all over. There is no need to do anything else.

3)Isaiah 7:14 – Immanuel
The gospel is: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.” You must firmly hold this fact today. Especially new believers are confused about many things. Do not be deceived. On the day they put the blood of the lamb on the doorposts, they came out of Egypt. That is the gospel.

4)Matthew 16:16 – Christ: the unshakable rock, the church, the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and the powers of darkness will not overcome you.
“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” “You are Peter; you will never be shaken. On this rock I will build my church. I give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven. The powers of darkness will not overcome you.” He said it clearly. That is the gospel. Right?

3. When they lost hold of the gospel, they lost hold of everything.
   So when Israel lost the gospel, they lost everything. In the hardship in Egypt and under the persecution of Rome, God first made them realize what the gospel is.

2. Prayer – Forty years in the wilderness, forty days of speaking about the kingdom of God.
   Second, there is something He made them know first. Forty years in the wilderness. Forty days of speaking about the kingdom of God. What is it? You must know what prayer is. Because people do not know what prayer is, they do not know what to do.

1)Prayer is enjoying the bartizan of the throne – seeing answers that transcend time and space and that are unprecedented and unrepeatable.
Prayer is enjoying the bartizan of the throne. Therefore, you come to see answers that transcend time and space and are unprecedented and unrepeatable.

2)is walking the journey of the throne – acceptance, transcendence, and victory.
Prayer is walking the journey of the throne. You become able to accept, transcend, and overcome anything.

3)Prayer is setting up the guidepost of the throne – the footsteps that remain all the way to the 5,000 tribes.
Prayer is setting up the guidepost of the throne. Your footsteps will remain. You may have given a small devotion, but your footsteps remain. To what extent? They will remain all the way to the 5,000 tribes. That is prayer.

3. Answer – The tabernacle, the ark of the covenant, and the three feasts given during the forty years in the wilderness.
   More importantly, people do not know what the answer is. Not knowing what the answer is means that the forty years in the wilderness were prayer. Then what is the answer? During the forty years in the wilderness, God gave them many extremely important things. What are the representative ones among them? The tabernacle. Right? The ark of the covenant. The three feasts. These are tremendous. Then they realized: this is the answer. But since people do not correctly understand the word “answer,” sometimes they cannot wait, and at other times they lose hold of it.
   I mentioned it last week. A certain person chose only children and women and killed them. Why did he do that? How did he kill them? That is not important. The question is, why did he do such a thing? In his childhood, a bartizan of hatred and murder was formed.

1)The bartizan of the throne is established first (Revelation 8:3-5) – the beginning of answers.
If the bartizan of God’s throne is established first inside us, that becomes the beginning of answers. So on Sunday, some people hold the covenant and pray earnestly like Rockefeller. Before any visible answer, the bartizan of God has already been established within them. This is the first answer. Therefore there is no need to be discouraged. In Revelation 8, it says all your prayers are held before God in the golden censer.

2)Journey of the throne – the way you must go becomes visible.
From that point on, the way you must go becomes visible. This is called the journey of the throne.

3)Guidepost of the throne – visible answers (your work is reproduced and re-created, your studies are prepared 300%).
From that time, visible answers begin to come. Your work begins to be reproduced and re-created. Your studies begin to be prepared at 300%. That is the true answer. You leave behind guideposts. These are called the seven guideposts. This is the answer. Since people do not know what the answer is, what are you praying and singing about? You are building the bartizan.
So now you know what the gospel is, what prayer is, and what prayer answers are. God held them in the wilderness for forty years to teach them this. Only then would the future generation be able to overcome. After training them for three years, Jesus spoke intensively for forty days. He explained the bartizan and guideposts to which they must go.

▣ Main. Thanksgiving – The three feasts come together.
Now, among these, we are celebrating Thanksgiving today. If you understand Thanksgiving in a shallow way, it has no connection to answers. If you simply celebrate Thanksgiving Day like in America, it has no meaning.
This Thanksgiving contains the three feasts together. Right? On the day they put the blood of the lamb on their houses, they came out. That is the Passover. In the wilderness, they harvested grain. That is Pentecost. It is the same as the Feast of Weeks. But they later gathered all these grains and stored them in the storehouses. That is Thanksgiving, the Festival of Ingathering. This has great meaning. These three are together.
Passover (liberation on the day the lamb’s blood was applied) – Being saved by the blood of Christ.
We have been saved by the blood of Christ.
Pentecost (gathering grain in the wilderness) – Living in the wilderness with the power of Pentecost.
We live our wilderness journey with the power of Pentecost.
Festival of Ingathering (gathering grain and storing it in the storehouses) – Your background is the throne.
More importantly, your background today is the throne. This is the Festival of Ingathering. This is Thanksgiving. You must discover three things in a simple way.

1. The three feasts that overturn destiny – the moment you realize them, you are set free.
   First, what are these three things? The moment you realize these feasts, you are set free. The moment you hold onto these three feasts, your destiny is overturned.

1) Ten blessings – All the curses of Egypt were destroyed. This power was conveyed to Israel, to Egypt, to the entire world, and to the thirty-one kings of the seven tribes in the land of Canaan.
Ten plagues came upon Egypt. For Israel, they were ten miracles. But for God, that was not all. They were ten blessings. Right? He completely broke all the curses in the land of Egypt. He showed them this. This power was passed on to Israel. It was passed on to all of Egypt. Later, it was passed on to the whole world. In the end, it was passed on to the seven tribes and thirty-one kings in the land of Canaan. It is amazing.

2) All are a process – What God has given you separately remains. Just holding onto that becomes a bartizan. Come out of darkness.
Do you have problems before you? They are not the problem. Have you received some answers? That is not it either. It is the process. There is something very important that remains separately for you. Your destiny has been overturned.
Let me speak to the remnants. From childhood, I made a declaration. My parents suffered, could not evangelize, lived in poverty and sickness. I said, “That is not mine.” Right? It is not mine. Why should it be mine? I must evangelize. In every church I visited, everything collapsed because of people-centeredness and people’s words. They could not receive real answers. From that time I realized, “That is not mine. Mine is something else—what God has given.” I only held onto that, and it became a bartizan. I did nothing special, but just by holding onto it, answers kept coming.
The beginning of the three feasts and Thanksgiving is overturning destiny. Coming out of Egypt is not the issue. You must come out of darkness. Effort comes after that. You have already come out of destiny. Believe this. Those who did not believe this died in the wilderness. Those who believed entered. This is the three feasts and Thanksgiving.

3) Even now, the background of the throne is working. Believe it (Mark 16:19-20, Acts 7:55-56, Revelation 8:3-5).
Even at this moment, on Thanksgiving, the background of the throne, the Festival of Ingathering, is working upon you. You must believe this. While you are worshiping here today, the power of the throne comes upon your business fields. Do you believe this? If you do not believe this, you are not believing any of the important truths in the Bible. At the end of the Gospel of Mark, chapter 16, it says that as the disciples went out and preached everywhere, Christ, who was seated at the throne, worked with them. Right? When Stephen was being stoned, it says Christ was standing at the right hand of the throne. When the apostle John was praying in death-like circumstances on the island of Patmos, the heavens were opened and God on the throne was hearing all his prayers. You must believe this. As you pray throughout this day, you must hold this covenant and pray. As you pray in the church, the power of the throne is at work in your children’s lives.

2. The three feasts that change the future of the next generation.
   Second, these three feasts—especially Thanksgiving—were kept together with the children. That is amazing. They actually built shelters and celebrated together. What does this mean? It means changing the future generation. These three feasts changed the future of the next generation.

1) Exodus 23:14-19 – You must surely keep the three feasts.
So in Exodus 23:14-19, it says, “Three times a year you are to celebrate a festival to me.” You must surely keep these three feasts.

2) Deuteronomy 6:4-9 – Before entering Canaan, imprint everything that has happened until now into your children.
In Deuteronomy 6:4-9, it says to imprint into the children everything that has happened up to now—before entering the land of Canaan. Right? Imprint it. This one thing is enough. To all remnants, before they go into the world, imprint this power. That is the feast. It is to make them realize this. While keeping the feast with their children, they said, “This is the Passover. This is now Pentecost. This is the Festival of Ingathering.” They taught them.

※ What goes into a little child goes on forever.
What you are doing now may look small, but you are raising remnants, preparing the three courtyards and nurturing multiethnic peoples. These things will become eternal. Especially what goes into a little child goes on forever. How precious is this?

3) Among the future generations, there are children God has prepared.
Open your eyes a little more. Even if it is hard, set more direction toward children and multiethnic ministry—I will speak more about this in the second service today. You will be amazed. Even if the number is not large, God has prepared children. I have seen so many amazing cases of “God has prepared them.”
I have shared this testimony before; older members may know it. Long ago, there was TBC broadcasting. At that time, there was a man named Park Dae-hong who did the weather forecast. When the government changed and the networks were unified, that station disappeared, but he had done the weather report there for a long time. He lived in the apartment complex near Busan Jungang Church in Jungang-dong. He was quite old and had two children. The older was a daughter in about sixth grade, and he had a younger child, a kindergarten-age boy. That boy was extremely smart—God had prepared him. Since this announcer had children late, he cherished them. On Saturdays, I gathered sixth graders and trained them in evangelism. While his older sister was in training, that little boy would hide and listen. I was so impressed that I told him to come in. “Come in and join us.” His name was Jung-hak. “Hey, Park Jung-hak, come in.” He sat there and listened. Then he went home and did exactly what I had said in the message. While they were eating, the little boy said to his father, “Dad, you have to pray.” The father was shocked. The boy said exactly what I had said: “Pigs do not pray. People must pray.” The father was so moved by the child’s actions. So he said, “Then show me how you pray.” And the boy prayed. In the end, that father was evangelized, and I got to see him become an ordained deacon in that church before I left. What did I realize? “Ah, among the future generations, God has children already prepared.” I could never produce that by my own ability. That is why we must prepare these three feasts together with the next generation.

3. Enjoy the completed three feasts every day.
   Lastly, the third thing you must hold onto: because Christ has completed these three feasts, you must enjoy them every day.

1) The completed three feasts – Calvary (completion), Mt Olive (mission), Mark’s upper room (fulfillment).
He completed everything on Calvary. On Mt Olive, He gave the complete mission. After hearing this covenant, it was fulfilled in Mark’s upper room. That is why it says, “When the day of Pentecost came…”

2) Life challenge – Absolute impossibility (acknowledge), absolute plan (discover), absolute possibility (change the world).
I ask you to challenge your life once. Take the thing that absolutely does not work and truly acknowledge it, and then challenge. You must acknowledge it: “We are absolutely impossible.” But within that, there is God’s absolute plan. Finding only that is enough. Jochebed knew they could not defeat Pharaoh. But she also knew that God’s plan was for this child to live, return to his nation, and proclaim the gospel. At that moment, her eyes were opened. “We must send our child into the palace. The only place he can survive is there.” Then an amazing work took place. No one could have imagined that this would change the world. You must hold this covenant today.

3) Your background – The throne.
The three feasts—especially your background, the throne, the Festival of Ingathering.

▣ Conclusion. The remaining blessing – seven points.
At this point, something even more important remains. Something more important remains in Scripture. The Bible presents seven important terms.

1. The remnant – Those who remain will become those who leave behind.
   The remnant. Those who remain will become those who leave behind.
2. Pilgrims – They will not be wanderers but those who shine the light.
   Pilgrims. They will not be mere wanderers but those who shine the light. This will come.
3. Conquerors – Conquering darkness.
   Conquerors. You will not conquer people, but you will conquer darkness.
4. Those who are scattered – Those who are sent.
   Those who are scattered. They are not merely scattered—they will become those who are sent.
5. Watchmen
   God will set you as watchmen. This is what remains.
6. Spies – Those who will block the disasters of 24, 25, and eternity.
   God will call you as spies who will save people from disasters in 24, 25, and eternity.
7. Those who prepare the highway and lift up the banner.
   God will set you as those who prepare the highway and lift up the banner. These seven points are the remaining blessing and the most important words in the Bible.
   Today, pray all day for the power of the three feasts. To what extent? Pray until all the spiritual problems in you are reversed into strength. As you pray throughout this day, pray that the power of the throne will truly come upon every place connected to you. As you earnestly pray today, pray for the work of healing to arise in the sick. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that today will be an important day. Let us pray.

Prayer. All around the world, those who have held the covenant are listening to the Word. May the covenant of the three feasts come upon them. Throughout the nation and the world, people are confirming God’s Word through the broadcast. Let this be the day when the power of the throne comes upon them. During today’s worship, let poverty, sickness, and helplessness collapse. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
