I Will Worship You
Seok Jin Oh · Ha Young Yoo
In the Spirit Lord, I will worship You.
And in truth alone I will worship You.
With the gospel of life, I will worship You.
For You are worthy of all glory, Lord.
Father, Son, and Spirit, I will worship You.
With the covenant, I will worship You.
With the blessing of the throne, I will worship You.
Lord, let your power be revealed through my life.
Confession of Faith
The Apostles’ Creed
I believe in God, the Father Almighty,
…Maker of heaven and earth;
And in Jesus Christ, His only Son, Our Lord,
…Who was conceived by the Holy Spirit,
…Born of the Virgin Mary,
…Suffered under Pontius Pilate,
…Was crucified, dead, and buried.
He descended into hell.
The third day He rose again from the dead.
He ascended into heaven,
…And is seated at the right hand of God, the Father Almighty;
From thence He shall come to judge the quick and the dead.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
The holy universal Church,
The communion of saints,
The forgiveness of sins,
The resurrection of the body
And life everlasting. Amen.

We Praise Thee, O God
Julia C. Cory
We praise Thee, O God, our Redeemer, Creator!
In grateful devotion our tribute we bring;
We lay it before Thee, we kneel and adore Thee;
We bless Thy holy name; glad praises we sing.
We worship Thee, God of our fathers; we bless Thee;
Through life’s storm and tempest our Guide hast Thou been;
When perils o’ertake us, escape Thou wilt make us,
And with Thy help, O Lord, our battles we win.
With voices united our praises we offer;
To Thee, great Jehovah, glad anthems we raise.
Thy strong arm will guide us, our God is beside us,
To Thee, our great Redeemer, forever be praise.

Proverb 3
Leader: Blessed are those who find wisdom,
those who gain understanding,
People: for she is more profitable than silver
and yields better returns than gold.
Leader: She is more precious than rubies;
nothing you desire can compare with her.
People: Long life is in her right hand;
in her left hand are riches and honor.
Leader: Her ways are pleasant ways,
and all her paths are peace.
People: She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her;
those who hold her fast will be blessed.
Leader: By wisdom the Lord laid the earth’s foundations,
by understanding he set the heavens in place;
People: by his knowledge the watery depths were divided,
and the clouds let drop the dew.
Leader: My son, do not let wisdom and understanding out of your sight,
preserve sound judgment and discretion;
People: for the Lord will be at your side
and will keep your foot from being snared.

O Come, O Come, Emmanuel
Steve McEwan
O come, O come, Emmanuel,
And ransom captive Israel,
That mourns in lonely exile here
Until the Son of God appear.
Rejoice! Rejoice!
Emmanuel shall come to thee, O Israel.
O come, Thou Wisdom from on high,
Who orderest all things mightily;
To us the path of knowledge show,
And teach us in her ways to go. Refrain
O come, O Bright and Morning Star,
And bring us comfort from afar!
Dispel the shadows of the night
And turn our darkness into light. Refrain
O come, Desire of nations, bind
In one the hearts of all mankind;
Bid Thou our sad divisions cease,
And be Thyself our king of Peace. Refrain

Joy to the World
Isaac Watts · Worship Team
Joy to the world; the Lord is come;
Let Earth receive her King;
Let ev’ry heart prepare him room,
And heav’n and nature sing.
Joy to the Earth, the Savior reigns;
Our mortal songs employ,
While fields and floods, rocks, hills and plains,
Repeat the sounding joy.
No more let sins and sorrows grow,
Nor thorns infest the ground;
He comes to make his blessings flow
Far as the curse is found.
He rules the world with truth and grace,
And makes the nations prove
The glories of his righteousness,
And wonders of his love.

Begin Prayer Anew
Pastor Ryu Kwang Su
Full Transcript
1. We must be renewed through prayer. We must do our studies and work through prayer.
1) Only when we pray do the brain and the spirit live.
2) We can enjoy the background of the throne.
3) Knowing prayer means understanding the gospel well. Prayer that enjoys the gospel must begin.
2. Completely restore the morning time – restore all strength and health.
1) Prayer is something done now, here, simply.
2) Pray while breathing slowly and deeply.
3) In the morning, gain strength; during the day, confirm; in the evening, find answers.
3. Take and go with the prayer that Paul and his team prayed for world evangelization.
▣ Introduction_ Reasons the people around Paul’s team did not receive answers to prayer
1. Thinking that what is not the gospel is the gospel
1) Church atmosphere (Acts 11:1–18)
2) Emphasizing Jewish law more than the gospel (Galatians 2:1–20)
3) Only the power of the Word can demolish the fortress within me (2 Corinthians 10:4–5).
2. Thinking that what is not an answer is an answer – if you do not know the true answer, prayer does not work and life becomes difficult
1) Joseph’s brothers (thinking they defeated Joseph) – Joseph (God sent me ahead of you)
2) King Saul (thinking occupying the throne was the answer) – David (The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.)
3) King Ahab – Obadiah (protecting the prophets)
3. Thinking that what is not the future is the future
1) Slave mentality (thinking slavery is the future) – “Go and offer a blood sacrifice” (Exodus 3:18)
2). Captive mentality (already slaves and captives of Satan) – “Immanuel” (Isaiah 7:14)
3) Subject nation (captured in the past) – “You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, and you will be My witnesses to the ends of the earth” (Acts 1:8), Paul citing the kingdom of God (Acts 19:8)
▣ Main_ The prayer that Paul’s team prayed
1. Communication prayer – prayer through which the whole body is spiritually connected (prayer relay)
1) Romans 1:9 “God is my witness how constantly I pray for you.”
2) 1 Corinthians 1:4 “I always thank my God for you.”
3) 2 Corinthians 1:11 “Help us by your prayers,” so that a door for evangelism may be opened.
4) Philippians 1:3–4 “I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy.”
5) Colossians 1:3 “We always thank God when we pray.”
6) 1 Thessalonians 1:2 “We remember you in our prayers.”
▷ Genesis 37:11 Parents and children, pastors and elders, husbands and wives must be connected in prayer communication.
2. Camp prayer – camp prayer that enjoys the light of creation
1) Acts 13:1–4 They prayed until the guidance of the Holy Spirit was perfectly seen.
2) Acts 16:6–10 When the door was blocked, they prayed and went to Macedonia.
3) Acts 19:1–7 They experienced exactly the prayer that had taken place in Mark’s upper room.
3. Healing prayer – healing prayer that transforms the field
1) Acts chapter 13 broke shamanism and the culture of darkness.
2) Acts chapter 16 healed one possessed by an evil spirit.
3) Acts chapter 19 healed incurable diseases.
4. Economic prayer – prayer for economy to carry out world evangelization (Romans 16:1–27)
1) Protectors, coworkers, hosts – the secret team of prayer that restores the economy of light, remnant economy, and mission economy (Romans 16:1–23)
2) Satan was made to kneel (Romans 16:20).
3) God revealed what had been hidden (Romans 16:25–27).
4) Offering – offerings must be given with true prayer so that economic blessings come to work and the church (the blessings of Romans chapter 16).
(1) Offerings are the economy of light.
(2) When work comes alive through offerings, it becomes the mission economy.
(3) Offerings become the remnant economy that saves the next generation.
5) Paul’s team received a 300% blessing, having more than enough after helping all evangelists.
5. Prayer of the throne – praying over what is most important in my life (2 Corinthians 12:1–10)
“I boast in my weakness, because when I was weak, God worked powerfully.”
▣ Conclusion: The completion of prayer – 24
1. Prayer is praying about what is seen and heard now, here.
2. One day it changes into 25, and an eternal work emerges.
3. The prayer prayed by the seven remnants – Joseph, David, Paul (Ephesians 6:18)
4. How?
1) Turn everything into prayer.
2) When you ask God questions with a conscience, answers come.
3) When you pray out loud, it affects the brain, soul, and body, and healing takes place.

True Prayer
Jang-hee Lee
Jesus, You are my salvation
And You are the hope for all the world
Lord, would You guard my heart
Let me know Your heart and make it mine
Jesus You are the song that I sing
And You are the answer for the world
Lord, would You guard my mind
Let me know Your thoughts and realize
Let Your Spirit guide my way
Let Your Spirit fill me with Your strength
How I want to see the desperate souls for You
Help me stand for them in the field
Breaking forces of the darkness
Praying for Your kingdom to come
O Lord, take me into the secret
Place where I can find Your heart
Fighting powers of the curses
Praying for Your glory to shine
O Lord, renew my life with Your power
This is my true prayer to You
Prayer · Lord’s Prayer
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.

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
