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.

O Day of Rest and Gladness
Christopher Wordsworth
O day of rest and gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
Most beautiful, most bright;
On thee the high and lowly,
Through ages joined in tune,
Sing “Holy, holy, holy,”
To the great God Triune.
On thee, at the creation,
The light first had its birth;
On thee, for our salvation,
Christ rose from depths of earth;
On thee, our Lord victorious,
The Spirit sent from heav’n;
And thus on thee, most glorious,
A triple light was given.
Today on weary nations
The heav’nly manna falls;
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
Where gospel light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
We reach the rest remaining
To spirits of the blest;
To Holy Ghost be praises,
To Father, and to Son;
The church her voice upraises
To Thee, blest Three in One.

Everything Is Changed
W.S. Martin
Everything is changed since my sins were forgiven,
Everything is changed since I knew the Lord;
Now my feet are walking the pathway to heaven;
All the guilty past now is under the blood.
Everything is changed, praise the Lord!
Now I am redeemed through the blood:
Free from condemnation, God is my Salvation,
Everything is changed, praise the Lord!
Everything is changed, to God’s name be the glory!
Light instead of darkness fills my soul;
Everything is changed, ’tis the blessed old story;
Trusting Christ I’m now every whit made whole. Refrain
Everything is changed since the Spirit possessed me,
Since He filled my heart with the Savior’s love,
Since He took away all the fears that distressed me,
Helped me set my heart on the things above. Refrain
Scripture Reading
Acts 16:11-15
Pastor Francis
From Troas we put out to sea and sailed straight for Samothrace, and the next day we went on to Neapolis. 12 From there we traveled to Philippi, a Roman colony and the leading city of that district of Macedonia. And we stayed there several days.
13 On the Sabbath we went outside the city gate to the river, where we expected to find a place of prayer. We sat down and began to speak to the women who had gathered there. 14 One of those listening was a woman from the city of Thyatira named Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth. She was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to respond to Paul’s message. 15 When she and the members of her household were baptized, she invited us to her home. “If you consider me a believer in the Lord,” she said, “come and stay at my house.” And she persuaded us.

Rock of Ages
Augustus Toplady · Worship Team
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee;
let the water and the blood,
from thy wounded side which flowed,
be of sin the double cure;
save from wrath and make me pure.
Not the labors of my hands
can fulfill thy law’s demands;
could my zeal no respite know,
could my tears forever flow,
all for sin could not atone;
thou must save, and thou alone.
Nothing in my hand I bring,
simply to the cross I cling;
naked, come to thee for dress;
helpless, look to thee for grace;
foul, I to the fountain fly;
wash me, Savior, or I die.
While I draw this fleeting breath,
when mine eyes shall close in death,
when I soar to worlds unknown,
see thee on thy judgment throne,
Rock of Ages, cleft for me,
let me hide myself in thee.

Absolute Bartizan, Absolute Journey, Absolute Guidepost
Pastor Ryu Kwang Su
Full Transcript
▣ Introduction: The reason we must receive answers
1. New family – If they do not know prayer answers, they will stumble over many kinds of tests.
2. Associate pastor – If this answer is not received, life becomes difficult and problems are handed down to posterity.
3. Church leader – If the answer to save the evangelist and the associate pastor is not received, time is spent on turf fights and human conflicts, and the evangelism movement does not arise.
▣ Main: How can we receive answers?
1. Prayer – When you understand prayer, the power that transcends time and space comes forth.
1) Jesus’ words about prayer
…(1) Matthew 6:10 “Pray for God’s kingdom to come.”
…(2) Matthew 6:33 “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.”
…(3) Acts 1:3 “He spoke about the things concerning God’s kingdom for forty days.”
…2) Prayer is enjoying the bartizan, journey, and guidepost of the throne that God has given
……(1) 7 bartizans – The grace of the triune God becomes our bartizan. It is enjoying the power of the throne. Within the proclamation “It is finished,” we build the bartizan. Because He promised to give power, the 5 strengths are needed: the power to overcome the ruler of the air; the road concerning the future already spoken of (the three ages) becoming my bartizan—that is prayer.
……(2) 7 journeys – There is a road by which the triune God even now answers. With the 10 secrets of the throne He protects you. The 10 platforms of the throne are ours. Amid various matters, the 5 assurances of the throne. The 9 flows of the throne by which we win without fighting, the 62 items by which we obtain and relay the lifelong answer, and the fact that we are seated here today is the camp of the throne.
……(3) 7 guideposts – Calvary (the past, present, and future resolved), Mt Olive (the absolute mission), the Mark’s upper room (the three feasts), Antioch (the missions strategy), the guidepost that breaks the darkness, healing of the Nephilim, and conquering Rome.
▷ By the answers of 7·7·7 prayer, the door to the 5000 tribes has opened.
…3) Find the prayer Jesus taught and enter into the Word. When you know what evangelism is, answers begin to come.
……(1) Remnant – You must study to lead the world.
……(2) Church leader – The blessing of the 70 to save the non-believers is prepared.
……(3) You are the watchmen of world evangelization – Everything else is process, not the answer.
2. Answers
…1) By prayer, the bartizan of God (the bartizan of the Word) is first built within me – only when you believe does it become a bartizan.
……(1) Grieving the Holy Spirit (Ephesians 4:30) – You cannot wait and you do what should not be done.
……(2) Quenching the Spirit (1 Thessalonians 5:19) – Even when the answer has come, you do not do it.
▷ Through the three courtyards, the three-day weekend age, and the age of holy meditation, many will come to life and the 5000 tribes will gather.
…2) Only when the bartizan is built can you go on the journey.
…3) Only when you go on the journey can you leave guideposts. The guideposts are what have already been fulfilled and are the answers that have come.
……(1) Mark 11:24 “Believe that you have received it, and it will be yours.”
……(2) Joshua 1:3 “I have given you…”
▷ If you do not know prayer and do not know answers, you know nothing. Then you must live and die insisting on your own way.
3. The power (road and method) of world evangelization
…1) The absolute bartizan – When the road is blocked, truly pray and wait. Build the absolute bartizan that will never disappear.
…2) The absolute journey
……(1) Verse 13 “On the sabbath we went outside the city gate to the river, where we expected to find a place of prayer” and met Lydia.
……(2) Verse 14 “The Lord opened her heart.”
……(3) Verse 15 The house that became a mission home and the Philippi church, the supporter of Paul’s world missions.
……(4) Philippians 1:3–4 A person who is inside prayer.
…3) The absolute guidepost
……(1) Verses 16–18 Healing the demon-possessed.
……(2) Verses 19–40 The work in the prison.
▣ Conclusion
1. Redo the challenge, reproduction, and re-creation.
2. Tithe (Malachi 3:10) – What belongs to the Levites who pray 24 for us; if we give the tithe properly, there will be no lack in the church budget.
3. Paul’s team that gave nine-tenths – Such powerful Remnants must arise. Offerings are the economy of light.
Hymn
Witnesses of Christ
Joon Suk Kim
In this world, there are people who suffer
In their pain, never knowing why
They are lost in their sins, far away from meeting God
Living under forces of darkness
But the Lord He has called us His chosen
Royal priesthood and holy nation
We’re His people of light in the darkness
Witnesses of Christ for all the world
Let us testify for Jesus Christ
King of kings and Lord Immanuel
Let’s proclaim to all of Jesus Christ
He’s the only answer to this life
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
