My Past and Wounds That Must Be Removed

2024.07.09 New Family On-Site Minister Training
Lesson 3 – God’s Plan for the New Family, Lesson 8
Scripture Reading: Galatians 2:20


Introduction

What is the most important thing you need right now? And what is the most essential thing new believers need in order to truly receive answers? It is “me” — understanding one’s true self. You must help new believers realize this deeply. Because of this, wounds naturally arise. That’s understandable, but the bigger issue is that many are unable to enjoy God’s answers because of it.
This is why you must deal with these wounds through the gospel.

In this introduction, there are five key areas that must be addressed.
During Jesus’ ministry, tens of thousands of people followed Him. But when problems arose, they thought everything had fallen apart. In the end, only 120 people remained. The rest ran away, thinking, “I must have been wrong… Jesus was executed on the cross… I must have been deceived for three years.” They believed the Pharisees were right.

The teaching of the Pharisees was this:

> “How can anyone receive salvation by faith alone?”

That was the core conflict between Jesus and the Pharisees. Jesus declared, “Your faith has saved you. According to your faith, it shall be done” — but the Pharisees were enraged:

> “Then what about all our traditions? What about the laws we’ve been keeping for generations? This man is a blasphemer and a heretic!”

But here’s the truth: the Pharisees had religion, not the gospel. Salvation comes only by faith in what God has provided — nothing else works. Without this, real problems cannot be solved, and real answers will never come.

1) The Fundamental Wound – Disobedience (12 Problems: “Me”-centered life)

The very first thing you must teach new believers is about the fundamental wound. Where did it begin? It began when humanity was no longer satisfied with what God had given. God provided perfection, yet people were not satisfied. Even the Garden of Eden wasn’t enough, so they disobeyed God — and as a result, the 12 problems given by Satan entered.

If you truly want to receive answers, you must realize this:

> “If I am truly enjoying God’s answers, then I no longer need ‘me.’”

Every person used by God in the Bible lived by this standard — their focus was not themselves.

Take Daniel as an example. He knew he would be thrown into the lions’ den, but he still knelt three times a day facing Jerusalem and gave thanks in prayer. That’s not ordinary faith — that’s the power of someone who no longer lives for themselves.

After Jesus’ resurrection, the 120 members of the early church all lived this way. Even in Mark’s Upper Room, there were still some who struggled with self-centeredness, but among all teams, Paul’s team completely let go of “me.” Yet even Paul’s team sometimes faced these wounds — a clear example is found in the Corinthian church:

> “We follow Paul!”
> “We follow Peter!”
> “We follow Apollos!”

This division grieved Paul deeply, so he said:

> “Who is Paul? Who is Apollos? We are only servants. I planted the seed, Apollos watered it, but God is the one who makes it grow.”

It was during this time that God raised up Priscilla and Aquila, and through them, an incredible work began — including the building of three major churches, which we’ll discuss next week.

You must teach this to new believers.
Many people come to church but eventually leave without ever experiencing real answers. Some leave when the pastor says something they don’t like. But listen carefully: we do not believe in the pastor — we believe in God.

If the pastor makes mistakes, pray for him. Help him. Support him. Don’t let human issues block your faith.
If you do not solve this “Christ problem,” everything else falls apart. That’s why God showed Peter the vision: Elijah disappeared, Moses disappeared — only Christ remains.

Jesus asked, “Who do you say I am?” But people answered, “Some say you’re Elijah… some say you’re Jeremiah… some say you’re John the Baptist.” Many people today still treat Christ like one of the prophets. That is why they cannot experience true answers.

When a new believer finally understands Christ, everything ends — and from that moment, answers begin to overflow to the point where they can’t contain them.

2) The Actual Wounds

The second area is real, personal wounds. These arise because of the fundamental wound. Even when nothing major happens, people carry inner wounds because their standards are misplaced:

1. Heart – “If I like it, it’s good. If I don’t, it’s bad.”
2. Thoughts – “If I think it’s right, it must be right.” But God’s Word must be the standard, not human reasoning.
3. Brain – Eventually, these wounds become deeply imprinted in the brain and start controlling a person’s responses.
4. Spirit – Over time, the wounds become engraved in the spirit, shaping one’s identity.
5. Body – Finally, they manifest physically, often resulting in sickness or fatigue.

3) Hidden Wounds (Cultural)

There are wounds people carry without even realizing it, often shaped by culture.
For example, strong nations, developing nations, and underdeveloped nations all carry different cultural scars. Many immigrants come to Korea or move to the U.S. and bring unseen wounds from their backgrounds.

This is why when we minister to different people groups, we must see their hidden scars through the lens of the gospel.
Missionaries especially face this challenge: they travel the world but often only deal with surface wounds, leaving the root wounds untouched. Without addressing these, people may leave church unexpectedly, unable to endure conflict or disappointment.

4) Wounds from Life Experiences

Another type of wound comes from past life experiences — things we often try to hide:

Family lineage wounds
Home environment wounds
Personal failures and regrets

If not healed, these become deep chains that control a person’s future.

5) Physical Wounds (Sickness)

Finally, there are wounds that manifest as illness. Among the 5,000 unreached people groups, almost 100% suffer from physical problems. During mission trips, we discovered that nearly everyone had some form of sickness. Without understanding healing ministry, world evangelization becomes nearly impossible.

Main Point: Healing and Spiritual Restoration

True healing is not only about medicine or surgery — doctors handle the physical, but the gospel heals the before and after:

The wounds caused by sin before the illness.
The spiritual restoration needed after.

New believers especially need this kind of holistic healing to enjoy God’s answers and restore their spiritual identity.

1. We must know the root of our past wounds and uproot the bitter root

If you understand the source of your wounds, you can finally help others uproot theirs. The root is found in Genesis 3, 6, and 11 — the three chapters that reveal humanity’s separation from God.

1) Genesis 3:1–20 – The cause of all problems (The fundamental root)

Humanity’s disobedience began here. Adam and Eve left God by choosing their own way, and as a result, sin entered the world, bringing death and curses.

2) Genesis 6:1–20 – Families striving but collapsing

People worked hard, built families, and pursued success — but without God, it resulted in the age of the Nephilim, where spiritual chaos and destruction entered families.

3) Genesis 11:1–8 – Societies advancing but falling

Humanity appeared to be progressing, building the Tower of Babel in pride and independence, but without God, everything collapsed. What looked like success ended in confusion and division.

When you explain this to new believers while praying, the Holy Spirit Himself will open their eyes to see the true root of their wounds and problems.

2. If we do not heal our wounds, they become Satan’s foothold

This is very important. Unhealed wounds don’t just remain personal struggles — they become Satan’s access point into your life.

Areas where wounds open doors to Satan:

1. Family and generational problems – Broken homes, conflicts, generational curses.
2. Serious or rare diseases – Physical weakness becomes an entry point for fear and despair.
3. Idolatry and resulting mental disorders – Spiritual oppression always follows false worship.
4. Relational conflicts – Wounds make it difficult to forgive, deepening division.
5. Environmental and situational problems – Poverty, injustice, and oppression leave lasting scars.

These unresolved wounds cause ripple effects — families break down, mental problems intensify, diseases worsen, and conflicts deepen.
That is why healing is not optional — we must cut off Satan’s foothold so believers can live in God’s freedom.

3. We must know the spiritual background that deceives us

Satan’s primary strategy is deception. He rarely appears directly but works subtly to confuse and mislead God’s people.

1) Satan deceives through lies (John 8:44)

> “You belong to your father, the devil… when he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.”

Satan’s lies make us believe we’re fine when we’re not, or convince us we’re hopeless when God has provided a way.

2) Satan deceives by appearing as an angel of light (2 Corinthians 11:14)

Sometimes deception comes disguised as “good things.”
For example, someone might cause division in the church, win an argument, and walk away thinking, “I’ve defended the truth. I’ve won!” But in reality, they’ve been used by Satan to attack the body of Christ.

3) Satan manipulates unseen powers and authorities (Ephesians 6:12–20)

Paul discovered the reality:

> “Our struggle is not against flesh and blood but against rulers, authorities, and powers of this dark world.”
> Your real battle is not with people — it’s spiritual. The enemy manipulates structures, governments, and environments to block God’s work.

4) Satan deceives through idolatry (Exodus 20:3–5; 1 Corinthians 10:20)

Idol worship is not harmless; Paul says it’s communion with demons.
Horoscopes, fortune-telling, reincarnation, and shamanism — these are all satanic traps. Many church members still secretly visit fortune-tellers because they’re anxious about their future.

You must teach new believers firmly:

> “In Christ, your future is secure. You don’t need to seek answers elsewhere.”

4. Our thoughts must change first

When you truly receive the gospel, your entire thought system shifts.

1) Galatians 2:20 – Identity transformation

> “I have been crucified with Christ, and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.”
> You no longer belong to yourself — your life now belongs to Christ.

2) Philippians 4:6–7 – Peace that transcends understanding

> “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.”
> God commands us to give thanks even in difficulty. Why? Because His peace — which surpasses human understanding — will guard our hearts and minds.

5. Restore a life of thanksgiving

God has called us out of sin, curses, and darkness into His marvelous light.

> “But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession…” (1 Peter 2:9)

When new believers truly understand this identity, thanksgiving naturally overflows. Healing, joy, and spiritual power begin when we recover gratitude for God’s grace.

Conclusion

When these truths become clear, the conclusion for receiving answers becomes simple and powerful.

1) Right now

Right now, as believers worship God, this is the most important time to receive spiritual strength.
Even when you face persecution or hardship, Paul reminds us:

> “We are hard-pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair… struck down, but not destroyed.” (2 Corinthians 4:8–9)

Why? Because although we are jars of clay, we carry the treasure of Christ within us. That treasure is your strength.

2) Waiting on God’s kingdom

The second key to teach new believers is waiting — receiving power while anticipating God’s perfect timing.
We don’t rush ahead; we align with the work of God’s kingdom and receive strength through prayer.

3) The pattern of discipleship and answers

Jesus Himself modeled a spiritual system of power and answers:

3 years → Jesus taught His disciples to let go of everything, even their own lives, and carry the cross.
40 days → After His resurrection, He taught them about God’s kingdom and instructed them to wait for the Holy Spirit.
10 days → The disciples obeyed, praying together in one accord, and at Pentecost, the power came.
Acts 2:42 → They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching, fellowship, breaking of bread, and prayer.
Acts 2:46–47 → Daily worship restored their spiritual life and overflowed into evangelism.
Set times of prayer → Establish rhythms of daily connection with God.
24 + 25 + Eternal →

24 → Living in constant fellowship with God.
25 → Experiencing heavenly power beyond human limits.
Eternal → Leaving behind everlasting spiritual works that impact generations.

Teach new believers this spiritual flow. When they connect God’s Word, worship, and their field, daily answers will follow.

These three lectures are essential for all new believers.
Before you can help others, you must first receive healing and answers yourself.

It’s not about your standards.
It’s not about your opinions.
It’s not about human thoughts.
It’s about God’s Word and His will.

When you restore gratitude and prayer, you will naturally live within God’s perfect plan.

Prayer. “May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the One who solved every problem; the infinite love of God the Father; and the mighty work of the Holy Spirit be with every servant of God who will save this generation, and with every new believer who will save the field, from now and forevermore. Amen.”

How Great Are the Blessings Believers Have Received

2024. 07. 09 New Family Field Worker Training
Lesson 2 – God’s Plan for the New Family, Lesson 7
Scripture Reading: Philippians 3:20


♠Introduction:
In our first session, I spoke about the work of the Holy Spirit that takes place when you pray and when you worship. The answer comes afterward, so you must help people realize the value of enjoying this first. Today, the second session is about the important “blessings of the believer” that you must actually hold onto.

Here the most important thing is this: are we not living within eternity? Past, today, and future. But if you use those as your standard, you will feel anxious. You remember things from your past, and if things go well today, then you feel anxious about the future. That is why you must see all three (past, present, future) within the eternal things of God. If you do this, it may sound similar but it is completely different. We have not only received salvation, but we have also received eternal life. That means we do not die, and this is very important. Unbelievers think that when they die, it is the end. But we know that is not the case. Therefore, you must see your life within eternity, and this is the ministry you must absolutely do for new family members.

1) Past – platform
The past.
(1) Hardships (Word + works) – Everyone has hardships in their past. You may think elites don’t, but they have even more. In fact, many elites come to faith strongly because they have deep spiritual problems. When such a person understands the gospel, they receive tremendous answers. That is why when you look at hardships in the light of God’s Word and His works, there is a message that strikes their heart. For example, if a family has a disabled person, you must not just leave it at that. What does God’s Word say? You must explain the whole picture. And there are people with disabilities who influenced the world. When people see this, they are struck. That becomes a tremendous work of God. At that time, it truly becomes a platform. You must do this for them because they may not be able to do it themselves. Did not Jesus say the same thing? “Whose sin is this?” That is the way people in the world think. But Jesus said that the works of God might be displayed. Simply put, Anne Sullivan saw this. We often do not. Everyone has different hardships.

Or take a person who graduated from Seoul National University and passed the bar exam—aren’t they considered outstanding talent? He became a lawyer. Outwardly, it seemed like he went to church because of his wife. He was a good man, polite, capable, lacking nothing. “Does he really need faith?” That’s how it looked. But then his children began having spiritual problems. He had no one to talk to. While listening to messages, he finally understood the Word. His children began to change. He came to believe, “Truly, this is God’s work. How could this be possible?” He received grace and understood the gospel. “Ah, this is the gospel!” And the Word began to take root in him. Such problems don’t come overnight or because of one person. They are long-standing. And when the gospel hits that problem, the answer explodes. That is why, when we say the gospel was given before eternity, yes—that means it was always necessary.

(2) 237 (long-standing problems) – We must go one step further. People coming from the 237 nations carry long-standing problems. You must help them discover the answer.

(3) 5000 tribes (imprints) – Now, people from the 5000 tribes are also coming. It is not enough to just skim the surface. These people are imprinted with things from long ago. It has taken root and become their nature. So although it sounds simple to say “the past is a platform,” unless this is dealt with, it will take a very long time and no answers will come.

2) Today – throne
Then comes today. You must explain clearly what today is. Once the past becomes a platform, what is today? Jesus explained it. It is the throne’s (1) bartizan, (2) journey, and (3) guidepost. This is not just symbolic—it is the throne. Jesus first said, “Pray for His kingdom to come.” At the end He said, “Seek first His kingdom and His righteousness.” And finally, He spoke of the works of the kingdom of God. This is the today that we enjoy. Even if no answer comes, this itself is the answer. You are already enjoying it. You must help people escape from the wrong understanding here.

3) Future (CVDIP)
And what about the future? This is where CVDIP comes. Out of the covenant comes Vision. From within this comes Dream. By the image of God, the power of creation is fulfilled. So the future is (1) the eternal inheritance, (2) the works that remain forever, (3) the eternal legacy. This is the year’s theme, but in fact it is the eternal theme. You must teach this.

Main – So then, what is the blessing we must truly enjoy? ①Our identity. It has changed. Do not listen to the lies of evil spirits. Your identity has changed. From your new identity comes ②authority. From there comes ③life. This must be taught clearly to new family members.

1. Your identity has changed. Remember this truth.

1) Your identity has changed into that of a child of God. God dwells within us. The king dwells in his palace. God dwells in the temple. Outwardly, nothing seems different before and after faith, but since God dwells in the believer’s heart, your identity has changed (Romans 8:2, 1 Corinthians 3:16).

You have become God’s child. Before, you were a child of the devil. People just don’t realize it. Many ask, “So are all unbelievers demon-possessed?” I believe they are. All cultures are demon cultures. Right? It is all Nephilim culture. They must be delivered.

2) The Holy Spirit always guides you (John 16:16–17). Unbelievers live by their own strength, but believers live being led by the Holy Spirit.

Since you have become God’s child, as I said in lecture 1, you are now one who is led by the Holy Spirit. Before, the Bible says, you followed the ruler of the kingdom of the air. Before, you were children of the devil. Naturally, life was hard. You must explain this clearly.

3) You receive the filling of the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8). Unbelievers live by their own will and hit limits, but believers live by the strength God gives.

That is why we need power, and so God promised the filling of the Holy Spirit. During worship you can receive the filling of the Holy Spirit. In your set time of prayer you can receive the filling of the Holy Spirit. A scientific explanation can help. “What happens if you spend three hours in a shaman ritual?” What happens? Tremendous things. But destructive things. What happens if Muslims pray at set times daily, even while walking? Their brain is deeply affected. And it penetrates their spirit. Then it shows in their life. That is why problems and works both come. You must help people understand this, so they realize, “Ah, so I must pray continually. Even when it looks like no answers are coming, that is not true.”

2. What blessings has God given to believers?
From here, amazing things begin to happen.

1) He sends His heavenly armies of angels to guard you. (See textbook p. 20 for details.)
God invisibly sends His heavenly hosts to help and serve you. This is completely spiritual. It is happening even now. Some people wonder why answers don’t come, but it is not so.

2) In the authority of Jesus you can break all the forces of Satan. Therefore you no longer need to rely on fortune-telling, shaman rituals, or ancestral rites (Acts 13:1–12, Acts 16:16–18, Acts 19:8–20).
This is the authority given to defeat Satan and darkness. It is tremendous.

3) You can enjoy all blessings as a citizen of heaven who has eternal life (Philippians 3:20, Acts 1:3).
As a citizen of heaven with eternal life, you can enjoy this blessing. Philippians 3:20—you must enjoy this.

4) You have received the blessing of world evangelization. (See textbook p. 20 for details.)
Not only that, but He has given the blessing of world evangelization. The Lord promised to be with you with all authority in heaven and on earth. The Lord seated on the throne is working. The Lord explained the things of the kingdom for 40 days and promised this. That is the mystery. Therefore He said, “Go to the ends of the earth.” This is the authority we have received.

3. How can you enjoy these blessings?
You must explain this life. This life is the ambassadorial calling of Christ’s threefold office. Indeed, since Christ came as the True King, Prophet, and Priest, He gave us the same calling and authority.

1) Since Jesus dwells in you, when you entrust everything and believe fully, all problems are solved (Galatians 2:20).
He said, “Christ lives in me.” Today you must believe this power. When do answers come? They come tomorrow and they come even now.

2) When you pray with thanksgiving, God guards your heart and mind (Philippians 4:6–7).
As Philippians 4:6–7 says: “Present your requests with thanksgiving.” Carry your worries and yet give thanks. Daniel faced death, yet prayed with thanksgiving. Can you understand that? From this came tremendous works and evidence. “Believe that you have received what you asked for…”

3) Whatever you ask in faith, you will receive (Mark 11:24).
Even now as you hold onto the Word and say “Amen,” the Spirit of God is working and answering. If you don’t teach this to new family members, it is a disaster.

4) When you pray in the Spirit on all occasions, you will receive answers on all occasions (Ephesians 6:18).
So don’t be burdened. Pray in the Spirit at all times. I once told this to a parent of an autistic child. I had been invited to briefly lecture at an autism retreat. Afterward, a parent came up and said, “This is the day I look forward to the most—because for a short time, I can entrust my child and just pray.” I thought, “Yes, that must be so.” Even for me, just spending a short time there was exhausting. How much more for the parents? So I told that deaconess, “You have been given a unique opportunity—an opportunity for 24 prayer.” Later, the child changed, went to school, received awards. For new family members, this teaching is essential.

♠Conclusion
This is what must be explained.

1. Heart – the three todays
Even without outward action, you must hold the three todays in your heart each day: today’s prayer, today’s Word, today’s evangelism. It may seem like nothing, but your heart must be in it first.

2. Faith – answers
Then simply believing that the Holy Spirit is working is itself the answer. We often think answers must show up visibly. Of course they do, but believing itself is the answer.

3. Absolute covenant
And then, even for the new family, one day they will see this. The absolute covenant will be revealed. Simply put, there is a covenant given uniquely to that person. From the day they discover it, everything changes. For me, the moment I held onto “only the gospel, only evangelism, only prayer,” change began immediately. For new family members, this is absolutely important.

Now let’s take a 10-minute break and continue. During that time, recover your strength in prayer. I will pray.

Prayer. May all my diseases be healed at this time. Heal also the unknown diseases. Heal the spiritual diseases. May the works of God’s kingdom be fulfilled in all places connected to me. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.

Who is the Holy Spirit?

July 9, 2024. New Family Field Worker Training,
Lesson 1 – God’s Plan for the New Family, Session 6
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:8


♠Introduction:
This is a time for the new family retreat, for the new family. I grew up in a Christian household. And I served as a minister for 40 years. There has always been a concern in my heart: “When a new family goes to church, can that person really understand the gospel? And can that person truly receive answers to prayer?” You probably have felt that too, but I worried about it a lot. When a new family goes to church, they should be able to know the gospel properly, receive grace, and receive answers to prayer, but aren’t there obstacles to that inside the church? Of course, there are none in God’s church itself, but among us there are many. We must help the new family receive grace and receive answers. Of course, it is not us who make it, but we are the ones who run errands so that the grace can be there.

Since they are a new family, there are three things that must first be made clear.
① Your salvation was received by the grace of God. There were no conditions, but faith is the condition, and even that faith is what the Holy Spirit made you realize. Beyond that, you cannot receive answers through your own realization. “I believed in Jesus because of this,” “I became like this because of that,” that is not the case. That is why it must be taught properly. Then what’s next?

② “How should we live?” The new family does not know this either. Each denomination emphasizes different things, right? Some insist that you must be baptized. Some insist on holiness. Some emphasize experience. All those things that emphasize one aspect are not wrong. However, now that you are saved, you are to become Christ-like, to follow the teachings of Christ, to follow what God desires. That is sanctification. And though we will be fully transformed in eternity when we go to heaven, that is our goal. That is glorification. The new believers must understand these basics.

③ Then, what is the secret of answers in the life of faith? Earlier, we asked questions such as, “Who is Christ, who is God, and who am I?” In order to receive answers to prayer, today’s sixth lecture is important. Jesus said, “Believe that you have received what you have asked in prayer.” Before I understood prayer, I could not understand this word. “I have not received, but believe that I have.” One day, I came to understand prayer, and when I did, this word became everything. Right? When Joseph held onto the covenant, he had already received it. The rest was simply fulfillment. Right? When Moses received the covenant from his mother, he had already received all the answers. Then isn’t all of Scripture like that? “Ah, I see, this is prayer. This is worship.” Right? Then, if you don’t know that prayer and worship are important, you end up dying spiritually. Right?

So the word that came out of this is “Who is the Holy Spirit?” When you hold onto the covenant, the Holy Spirit works. That means you have already received the answer. When believers hear the pastor’s sermon and receive grace touched by the Spirit of God, that is already the answer. Of course, it will come to pass later, but “When the day of Pentecost came,” that means it had already come. So when believers receive strength during worship on Sunday, that is everything. Right?

And this is scientifically proven. One of my friends went to the Vietnam War and returned. He was traumatized in Vietnam. One day, while eating with us, he collapsed. He collapsed while eating, and that was the first time I saw epilepsy. It was so painful to watch him convulsing. We didn’t know what to do. After some time, he became fine. He was very apologetic, and as friends, we encouraged him and talked. His mental shock had turned into epilepsy. That is science. The thoughts you have now will surely turn into your body. We think that only what comes into our bodies is the answer. But when you receive the grace of the Holy Spirit and the Word comes upon you, surely later your life will change.

So in the introduction—when talking about the work of the Holy Spirit, we must tell the new family practical stories through events.

1) Genesis 1:27 (Us)
The Holy Spirit already existed. When creating mankind, it was not “I” but “Us.” From the beginning, the Triune God was with us, eternally, always present. If you don’t believe this fact, there’s no need to go to church on Sunday. Right? Though unseen, when you receive grace at church, later evidence will appear, later answers will come, and everything happens from there. So we must help them receive answers.

2) Exodus 24:14–17 (Wilderness)
In Exodus 24:14–17, the three feasts appear. The Jews misunderstood this. They thought it was about harvesting grain. That is not the case. Coming out of Egypt symbolizes salvation—that is Passover. Gathering into the storehouse refers to the heavenly background—that is, the Feast of Ingathering. Pentecost does include harvesting grain, but it is not just that. It is about the Israelites journeying forty years in the wilderness, following God’s power. That is Pentecost. Last Sunday’s sermon on the Feast of Harvest was about this. This must be understood in reality. You are on a wilderness journey, so you must go through the world by the Spirit of God, by the power of God.

3) Joel 2:28
This appeared again as an event in Joel 2:28. When was it? It was during the time of Elisha. When Israel had completely fallen into idolatry and was perishing, at that time, the prophet Joel gave the solution. God will pour out His Spirit on His servants, both men and women. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. That was spoken then.

4) Zechariah 4:6
So, when in the deepest darkness, you cannot overcome by your own strength. That is Zechariah 4:6. Israel was rebuilding the temple, but had stopped and fallen into despair. Then God spoke through the prophet Zechariah: “Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit.” They held to this covenant, and fulfillment began. In between, very important words were given.

5) John 14:16, 16:13
Jesus spoke repeatedly at the end. Among many words, at the very end, He said, “It is to your advantage that I go away. The Counselor, the Holy Spirit, will be with all believers.” Do not forget this. The Holy Spirit will make you understand all things. Right? This is how pastors carry out their ministry—with this power. This is what pastors preach. It is the Holy Spirit who makes you understand what God has given. Why do believers pray? Because the Spirit of God is with us, He gives us understanding. That is why we are told, “Do not think too much, but pray.” If you think too much, you will certainly go the wrong way. You must turn your thoughts into prayer. These things must be explained.

6) Acts 1:8
And Jesus explained again at the end. “Will You at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?” That is not for you to know. “You must wait for what the Father promised.” And He said, “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes upon you.” This must be explained clearly.

7) Acts 2:17–18
How can you have this? When you hold onto this covenant and pray, amazing things happen. “Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.” The same word appeared again.

8) Acts 13:1–5, Acts 16:6–10, Acts 19:1–7 (21)
How was this covenant fulfilled? As history continued, Paul followed the covenant exactly as it was. Right? He fully followed the leading of the Holy Spirit. This must be explained: “You also must go that way. That is prayer. That is worship. The Spirit of God is with you more scientifically than science itself. ‘I feel wronged.’ That is not really an unjust experience. Yielding and losing is not really losing. Winning is not really winning. Our victory is in receiving this leading (the Holy Spirit). When the way is blocked, you receive the leading to see and receive what God has prepared. To evangelize the world, you must always relive the grace of the Upper Room of Mark. That is how Paul reached Rome.” This must be explained.

9) 1 Corinthians 12:1–11 (Gifts)
And the one who received this grace most abundantly was Paul. What is this? The Spirit is one Spirit, the Spirit of God, yet He gives you unique gifts. With those, you do everything. The gifts may differ. Right? There is no need to emphasize only one. This is what it means to live.

10) Romans 16:25–27
And how far does this go? To that which was hidden for ages past, which will remain forever, and God is with you in that. This is certain.

Whatever you think, you will receive answers according to that. Beyond that, you cannot receive. I don’t know your spiritual level, but you will receive only according to your level. Right? Effort has nothing to do with it. Your answers come according to your spiritual level. So the new family, and you as well, must enjoy this. That is why personal prayer time and worship time are very important.

Then two more things must be taught.
① The world (by the power of the Holy Spirit – the seven remnants) – Lead the world by the power of the Holy Spirit. That is the seven remnants. How did Joseph overcome? “Only a man in whom is the Spirit of God.” That was it. You too, your children too, must believe like that. After seeing the fire on Mt Horeb, Moses enjoyed. Right? To the young Samuel, the amazing voice of God was heard. “From that day on, the Spirit of the Lord came upon David in power.” Right? Elijah knew this, so he asked for nothing else but “Please let a double portion of your spirit be upon me.” The clever ones in Gilgal, Jericho, and Bethel were not used. Instead, Elisha prayed, “Let me have the spirit of God so that I may do it by His strength,” and he began the Dothan movement. In the end, Daniel, who always prayed holding to the Word, transformed Babylon. Right? He transformed the king. This must be remembered.

② Studies/occupation/work (Priority) – And lastly, this must be taught. Children will have studies, occupations, work, right? This must be taught. Change the priority. What is Priority? Change the order. Otherwise, it will not work. In everything, in every difficulty, in every success, you must first receive this grace. That is truly the end. Then the new family begins to receive answers. Right? If we teach them wrongly, then in fact, they will not receive answers. In some ways, we must not even teach them our own motives. We must even take that away. “I received grace because I was sick.” If they testify like that, we must change that too. “God originally called you. God called you, and that was only the occasion, not the condition. We can get sick while living, but even so, we are still God’s children. If I am sick, I am God’s child. If I am healthy, I am not? That is not true!” This is important. We must help them receive answers. When I gathered some young adults and taught them what the gospel really is and what prayer really is, history arose among them. Among those who received grace then, some are still testifying to answers today. That is not because they had something of their own. If they had something of their own, that would be a disaster. They saw the power of God within the gospel. So don’t attach conditions or reasons—just do it. Jesus said, “Only.” That means no matter how much you struggle with other things, it is all in vain. Why waste time on vanity?

Main
Here, it is good to look up the Bible together using this book (textbook). At this time, history begins again. When we look up the Word together, the greatest healing occurs for the new family, because usually we only listen to preaching one-sidedly. After giving this kind of introduction, when you look at the Word together, healing takes place. In my experience with healing ministry, memorizing Scripture and transcribing sermons brought tremendous works.

So then: ①Who is the Holy Spirit? Then ②what is the one thing we must do? Then ③how can we do it? Then ④what results come? Up to here, you must organize and explain for them to know. Without teaching them about the work of the Holy Spirit, answers to prayer, and the power of worship, most Christians do not receive answers, in my observation. They cannot evangelize. Those who go to church faithfully and follow the pastor’s messages with grace are simply continuing, but in reality, they do not know.

1. Who is the Holy Spirit?
Who is the Holy Spirit?

1) He is the Spirit of God (Joel 2:28, Acts 2:17–18).
He is the Spirit of God. Right?

2) He is the Spirit of Christ (Acts 16:7).
And He is also recorded as the Spirit of Christ in Acts 16:7.

3) He is the Spirit of truth (John 14:17).
He is called the Spirit of truth in John 14:17.

4) He is God Himself (John 14:6–17).
He is God Himself. Right? So when this work takes place, no one can block it.

5) This is the way God is with us. God’s dwelling place is the temple. Believers are the temple where God dwells. Receiving Jesus into your heart as your Lord is acceptance. Unbelievers are controlled by evil spirits inside them. Their status changes when they accept Christ. This is the way God is with us. So this must be explained. (1) “Don’t you know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?” This is tremendous. (2) “You could not be delivered from sin and death, but the law of the Spirit of life has set you free.” So show them this. (3) He will protect you, teach you, guide you, and make you understand. He is the Counselor…

Prayer is very important. Even during worship, there’s a difference between listening to the pastor’s sermon while praying and just listening. When the elder prays, if you just close your eyes and wait, it feels tedious. But when you participate in the prayer, it is completely different. Likewise, if you set aside specific times and pray, that is tremendous. You must first receive this power. “Will You restore the kingdom to Israel at this time?” That’s none of your business. Don’t lean on crutches. Don’t change the order. It’s not that restoration of the nation is unnecessary. But “Is that what you can do right now? Is that the order?” No. First, restore the gospel, and when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will receive power and then bear witness. Do not reverse the order.


2. Believers have only one thing to do. This is to be filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:8).
What is the filling of the Holy Spirit?

1) You must be filled with God.
2) You must be filled with Christ.
3) Power and witness will appear.
4) World evangelization will surely be fulfilled.

In the end, it is to be filled with God. Right? What is being filled with the Holy Spirit? It is being filled with Christ. It is being filled with the power of God. Then world evangelization will surely be fulfilled. “We were filled with the Holy Spirit, but the church closed down.” Does that make sense? It must lead to evangelization.


3. How can we be filled with the Holy Spirit?
How? There are important things.

1) Only the children of God can be filled with the Holy Spirit.
The qualification has been given. God’s children are qualified to be filled with the Holy Spirit.

2) He gives to those who are saved and who believe. The children of God need only believe this fact and pray. The very fact that the Word of God is believed is proof of being filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:4–8). If you are not saved, you are not qualified to be filled with the Holy Spirit. This must be explained clearly.

3) When you pray, you can be filled with the Holy Spirit (Acts 1:13–15). If you pray at least once a day asking to be filled with the Holy Spirit, God will give you new strength and answer your prayers. When you are filled with the Holy Spirit, He gives you wisdom beyond your weakness and ignorance. The children of God need only believe this fact and pray. Since you have the qualification, you are not just believing anything—you are believing this fact and praying. This is truly the filling of the Holy Spirit. This is tremendous spiritual science.


4. When you are filled with the Holy Spirit, all problems are resolved.
Then what results come? Things happen in this world.

1) Acts 1:8
World evangelization takes place. This light shines throughout the world.

2) Acts 4:1–12
Especially in Acts 4:12 something important came out. It is a very important confession. This is what they come to realize: “There is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” If you do not realize this, many other things will appear very important. Right? They are not wrong—Jeremiah, very important. Elijah, John the Baptist, very important. But if you don’t see Christ, you miss it. “Who do you say I am?” “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Now, what will happen to the whole world? Just wait and see. This tremendous confession was made by Peter.

3) Acts 3:1–12
This was after the healing of the cripple. It is the confession made afterward. It means Peter had assurance.

4) Acts 8:4–8
Politics cannot solve this. Theologians cannot solve this. Theologians are important. The reason theology exists is to make us see the Bible properly. The purpose of theology is to make us properly understand the grace of salvation. Beyond that, it does not help. The believers themselves must receive answers. You too must receive answers. It is by the grace of God that the church lives, people are saved, and the world is saved. Darkness is raging. “What will happen to my future?” Don’t worry about that. That is not the question of someone who is saved. Did Joseph ever ask, “How will I live?” Not once. Right? He simply went with God’s covenant, and God did the rest. People with spiritual problems worry a lot, but don’t. If you go into this covenant, you will surely stand as a witness. The reason God raises you is to raise you as a witness.


♠Conclusion: Ephesians 6:18 (Strength)
“Pray in the Spirit on all occasions.” This was said while explaining spiritual warfare. Speaking of Satan, Paul said, “Pray in the Spirit at all times.” Simply put, it means: Always receive this strength. Tell the new family: “Always” includes both good and bad. Always receive this strength. “Why is this happening to me?” That is temporary. Joseph, one day, was sold and almost killed. Temporary. But the history that remained was tremendous.

In the end, you must ask: “In every event, what does God want from you?” That must be asked. Also: “What does Satan want from you?” This must be applied to every new family. Especially to those with terminal illness: “What does Satan want from you?” The answer is clear. Then ask: “What does God want from you?” That is the answer. “In this extreme situation, Satan wants you to despair, be discouraged, fall into darkness, and die. But God has His highest interest in you. Then before whom must you stand?” This must be told especially to the truly sick. The sick are different from you. They waver back and forth. Some people say, “What’s the point of living long?” That is all a lie. When facing death, people desperately want to live. When a person faces death, their thoughts change. You must tell them: “At this last timetable, what does Satan want from you? What does God want from you? Therefore stand before God. Receive the strength that God gives!” To be “filled” means it appears in your body and your whole flesh. To be “filled with water” means overflowing with water. “Filled with food” means overflowing with food. The Bible uses this expression: “I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh.” Yes. While you live, during your life, this power will appear in your body and in your life. Believe this and pray. Then the new family will live. The best evangelism strategy is when the new family lives—they bring others. When they truly fight against darkness, then it is the cell, the team ministry. That is how real answers come.

Today, may this day be when the power of God comes upon you. I bless you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. One more important thing—at this time, even greater answers arise. When you hold onto the covenant, after worship most people just go back to worldly things, but if you pray holding onto the covenant after worship, that is what Rockefeller did. That way, what you heard in the pastor’s sermon, the grace you received, does not leave you all week long. That is true prayer. I will pray.

Prayer. God, we thank You. May this be a day of healing. Heal the unseen diseases of the body. Heal the spiritual diseases by the work of the Holy Spirit. May Your kingdom be established in every place. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

Samaria Evangelism

2024.11.23 Core Message
Scripture Reading: Acts 8:4-8


▣ Introduction – 24
Thank you. I heard that the deaconesses of our church have organized a 24-hour prayer team. So, you can also recover your health and comfortably do 24 in the way that works best for you.

1. Morning (1:1) (Continuous) – 10 seconds, 7.7.7
As I mentioned earlier, in the morning, simply open your eyes and keep praying as you move about. For your health, breathe 1:1 while continuing to pray. This has a tremendous effect. Morning is about continuous prayer and breathing in a 1:1 rhythm. Those who have had cancer must do this. And we never know when we might get sick, so we do this also to guard our health.

Continuous means to keep inhaling deeply and exhaling continuously. One inhale and one exhale will take about 10 seconds—that is the standard. Even without counting, if you inhale slowly, it will take about 5 seconds, and if you exhale slowly, about 5 or 6 seconds. That means about 6 breaths per minute, which is best for your health. Try doing this continuously while in prayer.
When inhaling, pray through each item (7〮7〮7), and when exhaling, pray for me, for the pastors, and for North Korea—whatever is on your 24-hour prayer list. The important point is this (continuous – 10 seconds, 7〮7〮7). Do it so that it becomes true prayer.

2. Everything 
During the day, turn everything into prayer. Because you have to be active during the day, set your focus on your lower abdomen.  If you are sitting now and place your focus slightly on your lower abdomen, your breathing will naturally become longer. At the same time, turn everything into prayer. This is very beneficial to your health. Doing this (Introduction 1) will revive your brain and your lungs as well.

3. Night – Deep prayer (1:2:4)
At night, breathe so slowly it is almost like not breathing—like an animal in hibernation. They stay still, yet they are breathing. Breathe that slowly as you go deep into prayer. At this time, use the 1:2:4 method—inhaling slowly for about 1 second, holding for 2 seconds, and exhaling for 4 seconds. Do this very slowly. Then your prayer will deepen, your health will revive, and everything will connect together.

(1) Disaster
Right now, this age is under 24 disasters. This is why you must pray—especially for North Korea. Being under disaster means the powerful nations are continually at war. So far, there have been about 12,000 wars. Added to that are dictators and wrong ideologies, so conflicts keep breaking out. We never know when disaster will strike.

(2) Curse
This is why people are living their lives entirely under curses.

(3) Darkness
They are completely in darkness. Young people don’t even know why they live. They suffer to the point where they have no clear reason for life. Looking at many young people—those newly married, for example—you see they often have wounds from their parents, and their spiritual lives are shaken. If you live like that now, it will be a disaster for the next generation. You’ve seen older people struggling; that same thing will come to the future generation unless you completely turn it into prayer.

Gospel peace unification
There is only one way for North Korea: unification through the gospel.

1. Spiritual wind
If you hold on to this mystery (Introduction), a great spiritual wind will first blow. When you, especially the 24-hour prayer teams, pray, a tremendous spiritual wind rises.

2. Victory without fighting
And you win without fighting. The 7 remnants all won without fighting.

3. Binding the darkness
Each time you pray, the forces of darkness are bound.

“The Samaritan Evangelism”
Thus, evangelism to North Korea is like evangelism to Samaria.

▣ Main message

1. History
You know the history of Samaria. After David became king and prepared for the temple, Solomon became king. Israel became so developed that neighboring nations dreamed of seeing Solomon. In the past, one way to make peace was to take a family member—often the king’s daughter—in marriage. Thousands came to Solomon in this way because Israel was so powerful at that time.

These women had nothing to do, so they asked Solomon to let them worship the gods they had served back home, because they missed their homeland and were bored. Solomon should have said no, but he allowed it. Israel became a land of idols. At that time, Israel split into two—Israel and Judah. Israel’s capital was Samaria, and Judah’s was Jerusalem—just like North and South Korea today.
Around B.C. 722, Assyria invaded. They took all the men of Israel and sold them as slaves in the markets. They brought in foreign slaves and scattered them throughout Israel. Over time, the women married these foreign men, and the Samaritans were despised and considered non-people.

Later, around B.C. 586, Babylon took the people of Judah into captivity. The south returned from Babylon and maintained themselves, but the north did not. On top of that, the Samaritans worshiped idols, so they became a troubled people. Their historical background was this: when traveling north, people would go around Samaria to avoid it, considering it cursed. That is why, when Jesus asked the Samaritan woman for water, she said, “You are a Jew. How can you ask me for a drink?”—meaning Jews did not associate with Samaritans. This is similar to how North and South Korea are divided today.

2. Need (Gospel)
What North Korea needs most:

1) Evangelism disciples
They need disciples who will only proclaim the gospel—not those aiming to build their own revival or seek personal gain. You must never exploit North Koreans; only give them the gospel.

2) Only Christ
North Korea needs only Christ—not just Christ in name, but only Christ in reality.

3) Only healing
North Korea needs massive healing—true, complete healing. When this is prepared, God will open the doors to North Korea peacefully. There is no other way but the gospel. What else could unify North and South? Only the gospel.

If war breaks out, it will be completely disastrous on both sides. We cannot predict what they might do. This is why we must pray.

3. Method
There is only one method for North Korea missions: through the future generations—those who have come out of North Korea or our remnant generations.

1) Acts 17:1

2) Acts 18:4

3) Acts 19:8

Paul staked his life on breaking into these places. Those doing North Korea missions must establish absolute bartizans here and give their lives to it. It will be resolved only when remnants rise within North Korea or go into North Korea and begin a gospel movement.

Ephesians 6:12
Why do we need a 24-hour prayer team? Ephesians 6:12 says our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against Satan—rulers, authorities, and spiritual forces of evil. Satan holds the governments, the rulers, false religions, and criminal organizations in his grip. This is why we must truly put North Korea in our 24-hour prayers.

In some ways, there is no place more urgent than our nation right now. Sometimes leaders start wars when cornered or desperate—history has many examples. This is why you must pray for North Korea. While preparing this message, I realized, “I haven’t been praying for North Korea in 24-hour prayer.” I felt sorry to the North Korea team and decided to start today, praying in the name of Jesus Christ for the complete binding of the darkness over North Korea.

John 16:11–14
Satan invisibly controls everything, ruling as a false king.

2 Corinthians 4:4–5
He is called the god of this age.

2 Corinthians 10:4–5
He builds bartizans and strongholds in people’s lives.

Matthew 12:26–30
He completely possesses individuals and takes them captive.

Receiving the gospel is an immeasurably great thing. The moment you receive salvation, everything changes.

John 14:16
At the moment of salvation, the Holy Spirit begins to work in you.

1 Corinthians 3:16
Paul said, “Don’t you know that you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?”

When you are filled with the Spirit, you will receive power and be Christ’s witnesses to the ends of the earth.

I am thankful for our prayer teams. Especially you who hear this message—find your 24-hour prayer. Include North Korea in it. Until last week, I hadn’t thought of it, but now I will. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that the darkness over North Korea will be completely bound.

The Remnants Who Saved the 237 Nations and the 5000 Tribes

2024.11.23 Remnant and TCK Study of Evangelism)
Scripture Reading: John 21:14


How can we save the 237 nations and the 5000 tribes? It must be done by the remnants. When will the doors of North Korea open? One day, they will open. But we do not know the exact date. However, we can discern the situation.

Introduction – Future generations (RT–TCK)
Among the future generations who hold real power, there must be those whose spiritual eyes are opened. Not future generations like Kim Jong-un, but people in power whose eyes are spiritually opened—these are the ones who will save North Korea. If so, our RT–TCK have a very deep connection with this. In reality, the first generation plants much of the gospel and prayer. But in practice, it is the future generations who carry it out.

[Historical evidence]
This is historical evidence. Those who tried to fight against the actual power of Rome could not succeed. One day, the future generations arose, and this was fulfilled. Constantine, who declared Christianity as the state religion of Rome, had already felt something of this even as a child. As you know, a soldier once came, had a child, and left the child behind. When the child turned twenty years old, he went to find his father. His father, who was acting as the ruler of a certain region, was a sub-emperor. When the father saw him, he raised him and eventually appointed him as a sub-emperor. Among the sub-emperors, one would be chosen as emperor. At that time, Rome was developed to such an extent. And in this way, he became emperor. Astonishingly, during difficult times, Constantine’s mother was a Christian and a woman of prayer. This is no coincidence—it is remarkable.

  1. Covenant
    We must hold firmly to the sure covenant.
  2. Evidence
    When the evidence comes,
  3. Witness
    We go as witnesses.

We must plant the covenant in many of North Korea’s future generations so that they will have evidence. One day, the work will break forth.

Main message

  1. 237 – RT
    Thus, the answer for saving the 237 nations lies with the remnants.
  2. 5000 – TCK
    The answer for saving the 5000 tribes lies with the TCK. This is why we must watch carefully and pray. We may be a stepping stone for the 237 nations, but in reality, we cannot do it ourselves. However, when the remnants arise, they will save the 237 nations.

1. 237 – RT

1) Genesis 41:38
This is the kind of situation a remnant can be in. Joseph stood before Pharaoh, and Pharaoh appointed him as prime minister. At such a time, events like this break out. No one can stop this in history, because it is God who works. Who would have thought that Constantine, who grew up as a Christian through his mother’s prayers, would become emperor? But one day, God did exactly this—to save the 237 nations.

2) Exodus 5:1–12:46
Through one remnant, such an event took place (Exodus 5:1–12:46). When the ten plagues struck Egypt, the whole world came to know. The miracles were tremendous. The Nile River, such an important and life-giving river, turned to blood. Everyone knew about it, because it flowed from the upper regions through Egypt. That river was like a god to the Egyptians. From that beginning, the plagues continued until the final day, when the firstborn were struck down.

3) 1 Samuel 17:1–47
In every age, a nation would arise as the greatest problem. Even now there are problem nations. In that day, it was the Philistines. Palestine is still a problem today. David single-handedly struck them down completely. This is the kind of work that takes place. This is why raising remnants is not a short-term effort—it produces fruit that remains for eternity.

4) Daniel 1:8–9
Even when taken as captives, if there are such remnants, an amazing work of world evangelization will arise. This is why we must raise remnants who know world evangelization and the 237 nations.

5) John 21:15–18
At the very end, Jesus said one thing: “Feed my lambs.” Even as He carried the cross, He said, “Weep for your children.” What is more important is the 5000 tribes. Our organization is now seeking to evangelize the 5000 tribes. We must send missionaries to them, but we are also seeking to bring them directly here. Surely, because God has planned this, amazing disciples will come. Remember the Ethiopian eunuch—he had not come as a tourist but for worship. He came to Jerusalem to worship. This is a miracle. Because he had wealth, he was able to purchase a scroll of Scripture, which in today’s terms would cost around fifty million won. He was reading it, unrolling it as he went, and came to the prophecy concerning Christ. At that moment, God, through the Holy Spirit, sent Philip to him. The eunuch asked, “What does this mean?” and Philip explained the gospel—Christ—to him. God worked so powerfully that the eunuch himself asked to be baptized. Such works happen.

2. 5000 – TCK

1) Acts 17:1

2) Acts 18:4

3) Acts 19:8

Paul, looking far ahead, did this work. He foresaw it and raised disciples in the synagogues. Even if we do nothing, these people (the 5000 – TCK) will surely go into the midst of the diaspora and come out.

Conclusion

[CCK], [NCK]
An even more important conclusion is this: North Korea is in this condition. It is filled with future generations (CCK, NCK) who hold to a completely dark, opposing culture. And 90% of them are entirely without any culture at all. This is the situation. Those who have escaped from North Korea are truly remarkable people, because the vast majority are simply bound. If they opened the door, they could live, but they have locked all the doors. The strange thing is, they do not realize this. If the door is opened, North Korea will live. But they will not open it.

If China opened its doors, it would become a tremendous nation. But they keep them closed. Long ago, when Britain invaded China, they presented certain conditions—build harbors in certain locations, open communications, and lend Hong Kong for one hundred years. They said this because they saw that China’s eyes were closed. As a result, Hong Kong became an international hub. See the difference? Closing the doors makes that much of a difference.

In our own nation, during the Yi Dynasty up to Daewon-gun, the doors were continually shut. There is a term we have used: “our people.” This is not a good expression. The Jews use a similar term: “our nation,” “only our nation.” But this is not God’s will. God’s will is for all peoples. In a sense, it is not about being multiethnic, but about being one people in Christ. If we do not realize this, disaster will continually strike. We must open our eyes and go to save the 5000 tribes. God will continue to work through you in the coming year.

Let us pray.

Prayer. We give thanks and praise to God. Let the light shine upon the 5000 tribes. Darkness is covering the whole world. Among the 5000 tribes, all kinds of diseases and spiritual difficulties are arising. Let us stand as witnesses who shine the light of the gospel to them. Especially, let the timetable for God’s light to shine upon North Korea come quickly. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

The Watchman Who Prepares for the Future – Young Adults of the Age of Crisis (The Early Church)

2024.08.15 World Young Adult Conference
Theme: The Watchman Who Prepares in Advance (Isaiah 62:6–12)

Message 3: “The Watchman Who Prepares for the Future – Young Adults of the Age of Crisis (The Early Church)”


Introduction: Prepare for what comes after success (300% completion)
24, 25, eternity, execution, secret → three courtyards

▶ At last, God has prepared for the future and has set you up as watchmen. So let me state the title from the start: “Young Adults of the Age of Crisis.” In the future, an age of crisis will come. That is why we must prepare for the future. You must remember Lectures 1, 2, and 3 well. Because an age of crisis will come, you must be young adults of the age of crisis. Here are a few things you must certainly take note of. This (Lecture 3) is about the early church. The previous one (Lecture 2) was about the era of the monarchy.

▶ Prepare for what comes after success (300% completion) → 24/25/eternity/execution/secret – three courtyards
Here’s something you must think about. What did the older generation miss? This is how you must pray. It is about preparing for what comes after success. Success is not our goal. That is a given, but we prepare for what comes after success. That is the difference. If you prepare for what comes after success, you will be 300% ready. This is not difficult at all. Why is that? Here it is again: 24/25/eternity and execution are the very completion of 300%. You must not just hold onto this secret; you must make it into something. Make it so that you become the main figures of the three-day weekend age. There are three things this time. The second is the three courtyards, right? The first one (Lecture 1) was about firmly establishing the prayer bartizan and the movement of holy meditation. That is how it must be done.

▶ If you pray with the three courtyards as your goal, God will certainly complete the 300% for you. I have experienced this for over 30 years. I was very poor and had no background. Others were in a better position than I was. I wanted to study more, but I was in no situation to do so. My friend went abroad to study, but I couldn’t go. At that time, I discovered something important. If God does not let me go, then I will not go; I will go somewhere better. Where did I go? Two places. At that time, riding the bus was wonderful for me—it was books and the field. Every day, fortunately, on my way home from school, our church was in the middle. I would drop off my bag and go to the field every day, carrying my books. I received tremendous grace. That’s when I saw this (300%). So it’s possible. It’s never difficult. While I was between university and graduate school, this was my target. This is what Christ promised—not just 24, but the three courtyards: the courtyard of the Gentiles, the courtyard of children, and the prayer and healing courtyard. You must find this.

Introduction – The Three Stages of the Bartizan of Light
Now, an important answer comes. What is it? A three-stage bartizan of light will emerge. Are there really stages? No. Why does Pastor Ryu have so many terms? Sorry, but when you have many children, you must give them names. If no one is born, there’s nothing to name. When you go to many fields, you need to know the names of those places. What does this mean? You must do your best, work hard, challenge yourself, and study. That is the first stage. Right? That is stage one. But don’t get stuck there. You should not live your walk of faith like that. That, too, is God’s grace, but it is still the first stage. What is the second stage? Our thoughts, ideas, and convictions. These are important, right? But this is not the ultimate answer either. It is the second stage. You must see this.

When you see this, the third stage of the bartizan of light emerges.

  1. The seven remnants (young adults)
    ▶ This is what the seven remnants saw. They surely saw it. When these remnants became young adults, they saved the world.
  2. Mt Olive (Acts 1:1–14)
    ▶ But Jesus summed up this blessing and delivered it on Mt Olive.
  3. Paul (Philippians 3:1–21)
    ▶ Who caught this the best? It was Paul. That’s why God entrusted the world to him. In Philippians 3, he made his full confession. He spoke about his upbringing. None of it was wrong. He also explained how he had joined Judaism and had a deep life of faith. But that’s not the main point here; it’s about this third stage. From there came the statement, “Our citizenship is in heaven…”

▶ So now, even when you worship, you must make it a habit to enter into deep prayer and deep breathing for your health. If you do that, it’s amazing. When I read a book, I’m looking down. I’m also looking down at my phone and my computer. The tremendous aftereffects of this were revealed in a paper by a certain doctor. As long as your lower abdomen is engaged, it’s okay to read even in this position. If you always pray and, for older people, keep the lower abdomen engaged, your blood pressure may rise a bit. For younger people, it doesn’t rise. So it’s fine. Always gain strength and enter into the level of prayer. Don’t worry about the future; it’s certain.

Main Message – At This Time, Three Things Will Come

1. Standard for your work
▶ The bartizan of light will come upon your work. It will be connected like this. This is very important; it will come upon your work. Then the five secrets will begin to appear. This work will also have standards.

1) 237 nations – It must align with the 237. This will be even more so in the future.

2) 5000 tribes – It must align with the 5000 tribes.

3) Kings – It must align with kings.
▶ Right now, there’s no need to meet kings. In the age of the internet, that will come naturally when the time comes. This is the standard for your work. Without a doubt, it’s true. A certain female student once sent a letter to the Queen of England long ago, saying, “I love England, I want to go to England, and I want to study in England.” Usually, such letters don’t reach the Queen, but it reached her hand. The Queen was moved and sent an invitation, instructing her staff to help this girl study in England. Why? Because the Queen was pleased—if we love God and love the gospel, this will surely happen.

2. Church (the three-day weekend age)
▶ Then this comes. The light will now come upon the church, and you will begin to carry out ministry. This is called the three-day weekend age. In the three-day weekend age, you must have the answer, right? That’s the church. In the three-day weekend age, what comes from here?

1) Synagogue, lecture hall, marketplace
▶ Why did Paul go to the synagogue? Here’s another thing. Why did he go to the lecture hall? That’s a slightly higher level. Why did he go to the marketplace? These important points emerge. The marketplace is related to the economy.

2) Healing, summit, flow
▶ What must you do during the three-day weekend? Healing, raising remnants as the summit. What about Sunday? Ride the flow of saving the 237 and the 5000 tribes. This is the answer you will receive. In a sense, it will be confirmed.

3) Works (heritage)
▶ If you try to do this properly in the church, it’s hard, right? There are elders above you, so you can’t do as you please. If young adults try to do everything, they’ll say, “Why are these kids acting up?” So you can’t do it. And you don’t have a lot of money prepared. Nor do you have remnants following you. But you are in an important position. That’s why I say—create works. Then it’s over. This is what you must make into your eternal heritage. Turn works into heritage.

▶ You can do this now. If a musician has great works, no one can stop them. So if you truly create works in prayer, they will go global. You just haven’t seized this part, but it can be done easily. In a way, because the older generation has all missed this, you must not miss it. Our older generation couldn’t help it; they had to succeed. That’s unavoidable, right? But you must not be like that. Prepare for what comes after success. People may not understand this well, but you must. Right now, I’m preparing for how to carry on this movement when the first generation steps back. Right? When the first generation steps back, how will you young adults and our future generations carry on this movement? I’m preparing for that step by step. You must prepare for what comes next.

3. Future
▶ From this point, this emerges. The economy of light and the three stages of the bartizan will come before your future. If you fall too far behind, you can’t catch up. Through prayer, God promised to show you what is to come. If I truly pray, I can see the future. This is the future Paul saw.

1) Christ
▶ In the synagogue, he explained why this term “Christ” was the answer.

2) Sabbath
▶ In the synagogue, he explained what the Sabbath truly meant—true worship and prayer.

3) Kingdom
▶ In the synagogue, he explained what the Kingdom of God was. This began to spread worldwide to the scattered peoples.

▶ If you are enjoying this answer, you will go out to the world. It’s certain. You must be doing this even now. You can do it when times are hard and also easily when times are good. Because this is missed, many important people spend their 24 hours worrying about the world, and then when problems come, it’s too late. When a serious problem comes and I face destruction, then it’s too late. Of course, even then, through prayer, you can change it by God’s power. But unbelievers collapse at that time. Since you already have all the answers, you must be different from middle and high school students. You are already people of the field.

Conclusion: Always
▶ What is the conclusion? It goes back to the same point. Always—this is the conclusion. It’s the start and the conclusion. It’s something you do always.

  1. Prayer 24/25/eternity
    ▶ Always—no one can take it from you. If you are doing it now, that’s enough. If it’s taken away, it’s because you let Satan take it. But otherwise, it won’t be taken. Always do it.
  2. Healing 24/25/eternity
    ▶ Healing of myself and the field—24/25/eternity. This must be done always.
  3. Globalization/Evangelization – 24/25/eternity
    ▶ Globalization—possible through prayer. Evangelization—these two must be combined for world evangelization. You can’t have world evangelization without globalization, and you can’t have globalization without evangelization. The combination of the two is world evangelization. Always—one day it will come. “I, the Lord, will do it swiftly in its time” (Isaiah 60:20–22), “The least of you will become a thousand, the smallest a mighty nation. I am the Lord; in its time I will do this swiftly!”

▶ This is the covenant that you young adults must seriously hold onto. You must not fail to hold it. If you don’t, later in life you will end up working errands for unbelievers. That must not happen, right? After all the messages you’ve heard and after you’ve guarded the gospel, if later in life you end up running errands for unbelievers or Satan, does that make sense? Because of you, churches will be revived. Because of you, evangelists will gain strength—that’s the Romans 16 people. Because of you, future generations will gain strength—that’s the three-day weekend age. Because of you, the multiethnic peoples of the world will gain strength—that’s the three courtyards. Let us give a round of applause to glorify our Triune God. Let us pray.

Prayer. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings, the infinite love of God, and the working of the power of the Holy Spirit be with all our young adults who will fulfill 24/25/eternity, with the young adults who will save the world, with the young adults who will revive the church and future generations, now and forevermore. Amen.

The Watchman Who Prepares for the Age: The Young Adults of the Monarchical Age

2024.08.15 World Young Adult Conference
Theme: The Watchman Who Prepares in Advance (Isaiah 62:6–12)

Message 2: Watchman Who Prepares for the Age – Young Adults of the Monarchical Era (Esther 4:1–16)


Introduction
The work of God’s kingdom – the throne (40 days) → 24/25/00/300%/secret
Bartizan – Journey – Guidepost
→ The absolute bartizan of the three courtyards

The overall theme of this conference has been “Watchman Who Prepares in Advance.”
Every year, as we hold the World Young Adults Conference, we gain strength. We also enjoy various festivals and give presentations. However, because your time is limited, you must prepare with a calm heart.

What must you prepare? I will give two lectures in a row. In this second lecture, although each of you has personal difficulties, the truth remains: you are watchmen who prepare for the age. You are not simply remnants preparing for the future — you are watchmen who go beyond that.

In the first lecture, we looked at watchmen who guarded biblical history.


What is the thing that the older generation most easily overlooks? If you do not prepare now, you will end up the same way. I’m not saying all older believers are like this — in fact, because of them you are receiving answers. But generally speaking, when they fail to hold on to what Christ has given, they inevitably end up living by the ways of the world. They have no choice — they must live in the world. But by living according to worldly methods, their core naturally shifts.

It may sound lofty to say they have fallen into Genesis 3, 6, and 11, but in reality, this is what happens: life becomes increasingly difficult. It is as if this (worldly method) becomes the main subject. Even when going to church, instead of hearing God’s voice and His amazing works, people mostly hear about urgent physical concerns.

We don’t intentionally choose to live by the ways of the world — it just happens. But do you know what a completely heretical group like Shincheonji says in criticism of today’s traditional churches? They point at us and say, “They don’t live the life of faith — they live for the flesh!” Of course they are wrong, but we must admit there are lessons even in the words of those who are wrong.

They have even gone as far as to say something extreme — that pastors in Korean churches have not studied theology. Instead, they studied “humanology” — human-centered learning — knowing only about people and not about God. While it is a serious problem for anyone to be deceived by such falsehood, it is also a problem if we ourselves fail to hold on to the truth. We must know exactly what is wrong — both in the enemy and in ourselves.

If you trace this problem back to its root, you find yourself in Judaism, where the gospel began. Judaism was focused on keeping the law but did not understand what original sin was. Original sin means that humanity has been separated from God, fallen into destruction, and become slaves to Satan. God has provided only one way of salvation — Christ — the lifeline of salvation. He tells us to believe this because we cannot obtain or create salvation ourselves.

But the idea of “being saved by faith” made no sense to them. They thought, “Shouldn’t you live correctly to be saved?” Of course we should live rightly — but everyone has problems. The Jews pointed at those problems and criticized. So when Christ came and said He would forgive their sins, they thought, “How can You forgive sins? You need to repent yourself!” To an unbeliever, the Pharisees’ words sounded more reasonable.

This is how spiritual disaster struck the nation of Israel. The Bible records only the disasters that befell them — and the few who survived when they realized the gospel. Despite such clear revelation, they lost hold of all things spiritual. That is why you must not miss this point while you are still young.


The work of God’s kingdom (40 days – the throne) → Bartizan / Journey / Guidepost
After Jesus declared, “It is finished,” He called the disciples to the Mount of Olives. There, for 40 days, He spoke about this. Why do we lose hold of this? If something is important, we must not miss it — and He spoke about it for 40 days.

The disciples could not fully understand it at the time. If a spiritual problem comes, and you don’t even know why it is happening, what will happen to you when you become an adult? You will be shaken. And when you are shaken, you will start blaming the church, or attacking others when they make mistakes, or criticizing your spouse when family problems arise.

On the Mount of Olives, Jesus gave an incredible message. In one word, it was this: the throne — how it comes, and how to set your eyes upon it. He told them to build an unshakable bartizan in their hearts, to journey with that bartizan, and to set up key bartizans in various places to save each era — these are the guideposts. In Acts 1:8, He explained it in detail.

If you lose hold of this, you will never make it.


Introduction – The Ends of the Earth (5000 tribes)
Why did Jesus specifically say “to the ends of the earth”? We must listen carefully to His words and set our direction accordingly. Paul understood “the ends of the earth” to mean going as far as Spain — and that was fine. But for us today, the ends of the earth means the places we cannot reach.

We must open our eyes to the 5000 tribes that remain unreached. The 237 nations can be reached — even if we ourselves don’t go, there are missionaries there. But these 5000 tribes are covered in darkness and are shaking the entire world. If we don’t go, the Nephilim will completely consume them. The great powers have taken over these tribes and use them at will.

This is the reality you must quickly discern.

1. David – 1 Samuel 17:1–47
David received more than one or two answers from God, but let us look at one specific example. He stood as a witness before King Saul — this is the kind of blessing you must catch.

When Goliath attacked Israel, he proposed a challenge — a condition for battle. In history, some wars break out suddenly, but often conditions are set first. Most commonly, it is over disputed land: “That land belongs to us — give it to us or we will attack.” This is happening now between Ukraine and Russia — “Donbas belongs to us because our people live there.”

Goliath’s condition was to avoid wasting manpower and resources: “Let’s fight one-on-one. If I lose, we Philistines will serve you; if you lose, you serve us.” And he mocked Israel for 40 days. Not a single person stepped forward to fight — not even King Saul. Even offering wealth and his daughter in marriage to the man who would defeat Goliath changed nothing.

David came, bringing food from his father to his brothers, and heard Goliath’s mockery. He decided on his own to fight. When he told his brothers, they scolded him harshly: “You arrogant boy!” When he told the commander, the man reluctantly passed the message to Saul.

Saul was incredulous: “He is a warrior and you are just a youth.” But David replied, “The Lord rescued me from the paw of the lion and the bear; He will rescue me from this Philistine who defies Him. Let me go.” Saul agreed, though even his armor did not fit David.

David ran to the battlefield with only a sling and a staff. Goliath scoffed: “Do you think I am a dog, coming at me with sticks?” But David made a crucial confession of faith:
“You come against me with sword, spear, and javelin, but I come against you in the name of the Lord Almighty, whom you have defied. I will prove that life and victory are in the hand of the Lord, and all the earth will know that the Lord is God.”

Before Goliath could react, David slung a stone that struck his forehead. Then, without a sword of his own, he took Goliath’s sword and cut off his head. Carrying the head, David went before the king. Saul, astonished, asked, “Whose son are you?” — not because he didn’t know, but because the feat was so remarkable. David answered, “I am the son of your servant Jesse of Bethlehem.”

This is the kind of blessing God has prepared for you — to stand before kings and save the 5000 tribes.


2. Obadiah – 1 Kings 18:1–15
Because of Obadiah, Elijah survived. Because of him, Elisha arose, and the Dothan Movement took place. In the midst of an overwhelming crisis, Obadiah hid 100 prophets that King Ahab had ordered to be killed — an incredible act.

It is still a mystery how Ahab did not find out. Could he truly have been ignorant? Or did he know and choose not to act? The Bible gives no clear answer. Perhaps one day in heaven we can ask Obadiah directly.


3. Elisha – 2 Kings 2:9–11
Elisha, in my view, did something even greater than the Dothan Movement. What you must hold onto is this:
“Let a double portion of your spirit be upon me.” He was not asking for Bethel or Jericho, but for double the spiritual power Elijah had.

If this prayer is established in you now while you are young, you will surely save the 237 nations and the 5000 tribes. This gathering here is not man-made or accidental — God is raising remnants worldwide. You must open your eyes to see it.


4. Babylon – Daniel 1:8–9; Esther 2:10; 4:1–16
In Babylon, all the Israelites taken captive rose to high positions. Two verses are particularly important. In Daniel 1:8, Daniel “resolved” — he set his heart. You must be such people. Decide firmly; God will do the rest.

In Esther 2:10, Mordecai told Esther, who had become queen, “Do not reveal that you are a Jew.” Strangely, in Esther 4, when the Jews were about to be annihilated, Mordecai told her, “Now, reveal that you are a Jew.” He added, “If you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father’s family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”

Esther replied, “If I perish, I perish.” This is historical fact. Whenever the church faces difficulty, remember: for such a time as this — you are called to save.


Conclusion – Even Now
Your most important task is always the same: enjoy prayer (the covenant diagram) even now. This is both the beginning and the conclusion. Many people lose hold of it. It is right to pray when a problem arises, but more important is to see the world from within prayer.

When a great crisis comes — even something like a terminal diagnosis — yes, pray then. But far more important is to have already gained strength through prayer before the crisis comes. That is the greater preparation.

The Watchman Who Keeps the Covenant Works – The Young Adults of the Patriarchal Age

2024.08.15 World Young Adult Conference
Theme: The Watchman Who Prepares in Advance

Message 1: Watchman Who Prepares for the Age – Young Adults of of the Patriarchal Age (Isaiah 62:6–12)


Introduction: Three things the older generation misses
Mechanism of prayer
Prayer = Thought
My thoughts (Genesis 3, 6, 11)
Bartizan – Journey – Guidepost
24 / 25 / Eternity / Practice / Mystery
Enjoyment – Waiting – Challenge
Absolute enterprise
Prayer
Life
Small answers
Trap of doctrine
Chosen people, Yahweh, Messiah, Law, tradition, system

▶ “The watchman who prepares in advance”—what must we prepare?
First, there are three things that cannot be done once a person becomes the older generation. If these are missed, it becomes difficult. Since you will also one day be the older generation, you may ask, “Then can’t we grow old with God’s power?” That’s another question. You simply need to know why it doesn’t work when one becomes the older generation. Mental illness doesn’t heal easily, right? If you know why it doesn’t heal, then you can address it. It’s just that people don’t realize why it doesn’t heal. When someone has a mental illness, they get trapped in their own world and keep obsessing over what is wrong. And those around them contribute to it. Going to church once and attending a service doesn’t fix it either. If the two are combined, the person will never be healed for the rest of their life. But if you understand this fact, then healing becomes possible. When you reach the stage of being the older generation, you will also be in that position and may not be able to do well. This is why it’s so important that you know this now.

▶ Mechanism of prayer – what must be prepared? Let me first give the conclusion.
Prayer = Thought (My thoughts – Genesis 3, 6, 11) → Prayer is very important for us right now. But everyone has thoughts. That’s important. Everyone has thoughts, but usually they are our own thoughts. And we often don’t realize it. When we operate on our own thoughts, we fall into Genesis 3. This happens to anyone. Even those who are saved, if they proceed based on their own thoughts, they will end up on that path. Later they realize they’ve been caught by something entirely different—that’s the Nephilim. Without even realizing it, everyone here judges according to their own thoughts. But if you change just this, tremendous things will happen. In simple terms, I am talking about the mechanism of prayer. There are three conditions for receiving answers in prayer. If we miss this, we end up in Genesis 11—the Tower of Babel. It hardly ever works out.

Small answers, trap of doctrine → This leads to another problem. People focus on small answers from the past—“Let’s do this, let’s do that, this is how it should be.” They also have doctrines, which could be considered theology. These are good in themselves, but they can become traps. You may receive real answers, but if they become a trap, that’s when it won’t connect with the older generation. When your black hair starts turning white…

Chosen people, Yahweh, Messiah, Law, tradition, system → This mindset leads to ruin. “We are the chosen people”—it sounds good, but people die spiritually because of this. You can die because of the answers you’ve received, so you must beware. Young people often don’t understand this, and older people don’t either. The time to understand this is in your youth. Many elders in the church make sacrifices and serve with their own thoughts without realizing this. A pastor is supposed to lead elders and the church in God’s direction. But when these merge, the work doesn’t go well. That’s why young people must rise up knowing what prayer, the Word, and evangelism really are. The danger is seen in the Jews: they received many answers, but ended up claiming, “Our God is the God of our nation.” Their Messiah was not the Savior of all nations, but one who would save only their own nation and destroy the others. And they were convinced of this. The wrong convictions of the older generation—even with evidence—are dangerous. Do you know why Israel fell? It was because of the Kibbutz movement, which moved the world at one time. Because of it, they rejected the gospel. Rejection is one thing, but they dismissed it outright, which is far worse. Young people, the little answers you have now are not the important thing—you must be in the important path. Think carefully about this. The Jews had more than 100 rules for keeping just one Sabbath. They insisted on traditions that had nothing to do with God’s Word, and even created systems. Because of this, the next generation suffered disaster seven times. Yet, in each such time, young people arose with the gospel to save the world. When remnants grew up into young adults, changes happened. If you become a church leader, you can bring change.

▶ But if you don’t know this, whether you become a church leader or not, you’ll still act on your own thoughts. The best gift God gave man over animals is thought, but the most dangerous thing is my own thought. Even with answers and many blessings, your own thoughts can still ruin things. This is why many pastors calculate—“Is this profitable? Is that profitable?”—and then make moves accordingly. Han Feizi once told his king, “Your Majesty, all people live for one word—profit. If something is profitable for them, they will do anything. If someone seems too strong, you must cut them down early. If you leave them alone, when the time comes they will turn against you. If someone does wrong, punish them severely so that others will not dare to act for their own profit.” It sounds reasonable, but Han Feizi also died that way.

Bartizan + Journey + Guidepost / 24 + 25 + Eternity + Practice + Mystery / Enjoyment + Waiting + Challenge – Absolute enterprise → Replace your own thoughts with what God has already prophesied and established long ago: His bartizan, journey, and guidepost. In this conference, if you complete the 300% work of enjoying the blessings of 24, 25, and eternity, and keep the mystery, then great things happen. But why is it not working? Because people do not truly understand this. For example, before Mark’s Upper Room Church, there was Dongkwang Church. One pastor there was arrested by police on the way home from leading dawn prayer—caught stealing from someone’s house. Imagine the shock for the congregation—it was a total mental collapse. The pastor’s messages were reportedly excellent, but spiritually he was undone, leading him to commit theft. This is not to excuse him, but to understand what really happened spiritually.

▶ The world is full of these things. That’s why you young people must realize, “Ah, this is the first thing the older generation cannot do.” That’s why they constantly talk about the past—they are trapped there. The most difficult people to deal with are the self-made people. When they think of success, they live their faith based on that self-made success. Beyond that, there is no other answer. It must be changed.

Last Sunday in the first service I said this: Paul was a remarkable man. He was proud of having graduated from the highest university, trained under the greatest leader, gained the highest position, and been in line to be an important national representative in the future. That satisfaction is what made a Pharisee. But Paul was not satisfied with that—he began the Jewish movement. Many influential figures emerged from that movement, but that still was not the answer. Paul realized this. He said, “I consider it all rubbish, I count it as loss,” and looked toward what lay ahead. “I never knew the word ‘Christ.’ Up until now I only thought about what I would accomplish—but I realize I have not already obtained it, I have been taken hold of by Christ. I only knew earthly things, but now I understand the prize of the upward call. I once thought Roman citizenship was great, but now I know what heavenly citizenship is. I consider everything loss.” What a tremendous message.

▶ Everything must be torn down. Of all who heard what Jesus taught on Mt Olive, only one person actually put it into practice—Paul. Jesus spent 40 days explaining about the kingdom of God, and in Acts 19:8, the only one who boldly proclaimed the kingdom of God was Paul. That’s why, to our remnants, I said in this conference: hold on to two real lifelines—hold on to the lifeline of prayer that saves yourself, and the lifeline that saves your brain, body, and life. That is 24. Then God will surely work—that is 25. Then you will see the eternal and challenge toward it.

That’s why people find it hard to enjoy, to wait, and to challenge. These don’t come easily. In recent years, God’s plan permitting, there were those who tried to destroy us with more than 100 lies over several years—inciting other organizations to spread them. They said that young people were the ones most shaken. I was shocked—“The young people are shaken?” If your church truly does the evangelism movement, there will be many things that happen. But you must not be shaken. You must enjoy, wait, and challenge.

Waiting is the thing Koreans do worst—this is why we have never won a Nobel Prize and why we cannot dominate the global market. Among the world’s top 100 economic leaders, there is no Korean. Japan, for example, has Honda. People fail to wait because they cannot enjoy. If you are truly enjoying something real, then waiting becomes possible, and you can challenge toward the eternal.

▶ Remember this: I am giving the conclusion in the introduction—so don’t miss it. This is not my own word—look at the Bible. The biggest problem is that the answers we have received become the problem. Israel always said, “Do you know who we are? We are the chosen people. We defeated Egypt. We survived the wilderness.” They were stuck in that, but lost the gospel. Do not be such people. The youth stage is the most important time. Whether you will become the pastor’s arms and pillars in the future is in your hands. When you become a church leader, don’t talk about how much the pastor spends—give him a card and say, “Pastor, use this freely for evangelism and missions.” Such church leaders must arise. I’m not saying this because I love money—I don’t need money. I’ve traveled to so many conference sites, always well-fed, often too full to eat. But most pastors cannot do evangelism or missions—not because they don’t want to, but because they lack money. When they see someone in crisis, they want to help but cannot.

So in this first message, what should you see? The overall title is not just “preparation”—there is always History in the covenant. You are the watchman who guards this. If you miss this, it is disastrous. Israel lost not only the covenant but also the History of the covenant. But among them arose young people who rediscovered the covenant. I will highlight just three important parts today—the young adults of the Patriarchal Age. The Bible is divided into three eras: the Patriarchal Age with many important figures; the Monarchical Age, beginning with King Saul; and finally the Early Church Age.

Introduction – History
In this first session, we must see how the young adults of the Patriarchal Age lived.

  1. Flow
    ▶ This is why I use the word “history”—because there is always a flow. You must hold this and judge history accordingly. No matter how much you work, if you are in a different flow, you are in a different place.
  2. Reformation
    ▶ These young people did not focus on “revolution” but on finding the original, what belongs to God. In some ways, it was not “information,” nor was it “ex-formation” that spreads outward. You must find this original thing.
  3. Baton
    ▶ They took hold of the baton to pass it on.

▶ Young people must know this—if this truly becomes the answer in your prayer, then what you receive is not just any enterprise but an absolute enterprise. This blessing will bring it. It’s very easy—hold on to just two lifelines: the lifeline of prayer and the lifeline of life. Just these two will suffice. It’s almost certain.

Main – What did the young adults of the Patriarchal Age do?
The most important point: ① The start of Nobody. This is important. This was not just a word I knew—one young person who prayed with me used this expression: “The start of Nobody.” More precisely, you must be Nobody. I once thought, “It would have been nice if my parents could have helped me,” but if they had, I would have ended up doing something worthless. Second: the predictable word—② Go toward Nothing. Third: always remember this—young people must become this way. “Don’t we have to eat and live?” Yes, that’s true. “Don’t we have to succeed in the world?” Even more true. But the Bible is not telling you to aim for such small things. The Bible’s plan for you is world evangelization. You must receive answers big enough for that. If you haven’t received it, something is wrong. And no one else can give it to you—no one else can help you discover it. That’s why ③ Get out of your own thoughts and hold the most important promise—make the power of the throne your own. This is the summary of the Bible: “Leave your thoughts, leave what’s yours, and take the power from above.” It may seem abstract, but the day you see it as reality, works will happen. If you see this merely as something in the Bible, you won’t move. But when you see it as your story, you can conquer the world. Once you know this answer, you will understand the verse, “Believe that you have received what you asked for in prayer.” Joseph prayed and received answers. David prayed as a boy and received answers. The Early Church had no power but went to the ends of the earth—and they did it.

1. The start of Nobody
▶ Let’s look briefly at some figures.

1) Noah (Genesis 6:14, 18, 20)
▶ In Noah’s time, there was no one else to help—make yourself an ark, for the age of the Nephilim has come. Make an ark to save your descendants and preserve life.

2) Abraham (Genesis 22:1–21)
▶ Later God called Abraham. God gave him many promises, but perhaps the most important was Genesis 22:1–21. What was it? To offer the miraculous son he had received on Mount Moriah. Verse 1 says, “God tested Abraham.” This was not temptation from Satan but a test from God—like a school test to raise his skill. The key is that God provided a ram in place of his son and promised, “Through your seed all nations will be blessed.”

3) Isaac (Genesis 26:10–24)
▶ Another patriarchal figure was Isaac. He farmed and reaped a hundredfold. Why? You must know the reason. In that time, to have many wells was to be rich. His father had dug many wells, but enemies kept blocking them—yet he found the spring source itself. Despite constant attacks, he received the greater blessing of Rehoboth. Why Nobody? Because God was giving him something the world did not have, for him to enjoy.

4) Jacob (Genesis 32:23–32)
▶ Jacob wrestled at the Jabbok River. God said, “Your name will no longer be Jacob but Israel,” meaning “one who wrestles with God and prevails.” How does one prevail with God? Like a child who keeps asking until the father says, “I have lost to you!”—not literally losing, but granting the request. From that point, answers began.

5) Joseph (Genesis 37:1–11)
▶ Joseph inherited the covenant in the Patriarchal Age—dreaming of world evangelization. Whether he was sold as a slave or not didn’t matter. Joseph never made excuses—never in any record of Scripture. In trouble, he spoke of God; in blessing, he spoke of God; before Pharaoh, he spoke of God.

Alright — here’s Part 3, starting from 2. The start of Nothing (Egyptian Age) and continuing in your exact requested format.


2. The start of Nothing (Egyptian Age)
▶ If you hold on to just this answer and begin to enjoy it, you can go anywhere—even to a place with nothing. What is that? At last, the Egyptian Age opened.

1) Slavery (Absolute impossibility)
▶ The entire Israelite nation became slaves. This is what happened—they were all enslaved. What could be done? They were facing death, but at that time, Jochebed discovered one thing. This is the realm of absolute impossibility. You must remember this: people say “Don’t despair,” but in reality, you must see the despair clearly. You must correctly identify absolute impossibility wherever it exists.

2) Exodus 2:1–10 (Absolute possibility)
▶ Then comes Exodus 2:1–10. The mother thought, “There is only one place where my son can survive—the palace.” There was only one thing her son must carry—the covenant. That was enough. This is what we call “absolute possibility.” You must be able to find this at any time, and enjoy it at any time. Do not worry about the future. It is not about “doing” but about making other preparations. If you do not have what is in (Diagram ④) and are instead trapped in (Diagram ①), you will grow old without realizing it. And if you lack (Diagram ④), you will end up like (Diagram ①)—satisfied with small answers, talking only about the past. That’s what older people do—they have no future to talk about, so they talk only about the past. That is dangerous.

3) The 40 years in the wilderness
▶ So God led them into an important 40 years in the wilderness. Three important things were given.

(1) Three feasts, the ark of the covenant, and the tabernacle – In the 40-year wilderness journey, God gave the three feasts and the ark of the covenant—not that the ark itself was important, but that the covenant was inside. And the tabernacle was at the center. This is what God made known to them.

(2) Joshua and Caleb – The second important point is that God left behind two figures—Joshua and Caleb. You must receive this blessing. Joshua crossed the Jordan holding the covenant and brought down Jericho. He won a war that was unprecedented in history. And each time, a man who had been hidden appeared—Caleb. He was Joshua’s friend, and when Joshua became leader, Caleb said, “Just as I served Moses, I will serve you. I will not tolerate anyone who opposes you.” Even in the last conquest of the Anakim hill country, Caleb appeared again.

(3) Rahab (Joshua 2:1–16) – Do not miss this: in Joshua 2:1–16 we see Rahab. This was a precious moment—just by hearing the news and holding on to the covenant, works arose.


3. My thoughts – The throne (Judges era)
▶ You must take note of this: in the Judges era, people truly failed to obey. They wandered and drifted. The “judge” was someone who acted in place of a king, prophet, and priest. But more importantly, it became a complete Philistine era. Even in this time, a few important people appeared.

1) Othniel
▶ Othniel became the first judge and did well. He was Caleb’s son-in-law—in our terms, like becoming president.

2) Gideon (Judges 7:1–9)
▶ Then came Gideon. Most did not succeed, but Judges 7:1–8 records an interesting account. Israel went to war with the Midianites, whose forces were like swarms of locusts. God told Gideon, “Tell anyone who is fearful to go home.” Twenty-two thousand left, and ten thousand remained—meaning they had started with thirty-two thousand. Then God said, “Ten thousand is still too many. Take them to the water to drink.” Some drank while staying alert—only three hundred. God commanded Gideon, “Bring those three hundred.” Gideon could have protested—“They’re trembling with fear!”—but God said, “Bring them.” Why? To show that the victory and the power for this battle do not come from you. That is how unbelief was dealt with.

3) Samson (Judges 13:1–25)
▶ Another figure was Samson. Though God gave him great strength, he ultimately failed—being used by Delilah and dying as a result.

Judges 21:25 (One’s own opinion) – The Book of Judges ends with this conclusion, and you must remember it: “In those days Israel had no king” —that’s the situation. But the real point is: “Everyone did what was right in his own eyes.” This is the problem—acting according to one’s own thoughts. We often try to do great works to receive answers. No—that is God’s work. The most important thing for us, the real way to live, is that this mindset must be broken. If it is not, problems will continue. That is why this first lecture is about the first mechanism of prayer—it connects directly to us.


Conclusion: The historical bartizan of holy meditation
▶ So what conclusion must you draw? You must do this without fail. For young people, it is not a matter of “being able to do it” — you must build the historical bartizan of holy meditation. This is the task of young people. Build it without fail. Then you will overcome—overcome everything. Because of you, homes will be revived, churches will be revived, workplaces will be revived, and all places will be revived. Build the historical bartizan of holy meditation. Why? Because many of today’s three organizations and the Nephilim are raising up meditation movements. This is a very important message for us.

Become the main figures of the holy meditation movement…

  1. John 14:16
    ▶ Jesus said, “I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever.”
  2. John 14:26
    ▶ In verse 26, He said, “The Helper, the Holy Spirit, will teach you all things and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.” Is that not an amazing blessing?
  3. John 16:13
    ▶ In John 16:13, “He will disclose to you what is to come.” This is certain.
  4. John 20:22
    ▶ The reason I cite this is to show you how to pray: “He breathed on them and said, ‘Receive the Holy Spirit.’” Let the Holy Spirit enter you like life itself—just as the breath of life was breathed in—receive the Holy Spirit. From there I began to enjoy breath prayer. Never lose this. If not you, then who? Young people—if you wait until you are older, it will not work. You must take hold of this now. Then you need not worry about the future—He said He will make known the future. He said He will bring to remembrance what He has taught you. He said He will send the Helper to be with you forever. This is the difference between a believer and an unbeliever—you must enjoy this.

▶ Haven’t I told you this before? Wherever you go—whether you visit a region or not—go to a famous fortune-teller’s house to evangelize. Ask them questions. You will be surprised. First, they will immediately recognize you—they will know you are a child of God. The Bible says we are sealed with the Holy Spirit. Some people, though demon-possessed, are spiritually sensitive—they recognize this. I once preached this message, and my daughter actually went to a fortune-teller’s place. When she came back, she told me, “The fortune-teller couldn’t recognize me.” I told her, “Then that fortune-teller is fake.” There are fortune-tellers who are truly demon-possessed and those who just make things up. The demon-possessed ones will recognize you right away. The reason I am saying this is because you do not realize how tremendous the blessing you have received is. It is enormous. We have the background of the throne. This is what we fight with.

▶ Among the three things the older generation easily loses, I have spoken today about the first. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that you will become the main figures who will save the church with the second and third points to come. I will pray.

(Prayer)
God, we give You thanks. The most important young people are gathered here. May these young people rise and become the foundation for the remnants. May these young people rise and become the hosts, protectors, and co-workers of evangelists and missionaries. May they hold firmly to the covenant that is able to save the world.

In the name of Jesus Christ we pray.
Amen.

The Power of World Missions

2024.11.17 Immanuel Church Sunday 2nd Service
Scripture Reading: Philippians 3:8–11


This time, we held a gathering in Bali, Indonesia. Unlike you, there were people who gathered to worship at the risk of their lives. They practically risk their lives, these people. Some escaped from Russia, some came out of Islam—these are the people who have become disciples. So now, when I give the message to each team, they all respond, “Amen, Amen.” But there was one thing in common—at the end I asked, “Any questions?” Without exception, every team said, “No questions.” So I told them, “Of course you have no questions.” What do I mean by that? While we often get answers through many questions, those who have truly received answers are not like that. Today, you must confirm what answer you will receive this week.

The power of world missions
Today, under the title “The Power of World Missions,” what do we need to confirm? People are shaken, asking many questions. It’s not a bad thing. But then, what is the true answer? What is our real answer? When I look at powerful nations, is that the real answer? Frankly, they are crazy. Are they peaceful? Is that the real answer? No. Israel, while constantly denying Christ, lived fervently, but none of that was the real answer. You must confirm the true answer. Only then can you have a proper walk of faith. Many people act like money is everything. If that’s the case, then there’s no need to believe in Jesus. So what is the real answer? Those seven nations brought disasters. So what is the true answer? Through you, those trapped in darkness, those under disaster, those under Satan’s authority—when they are set free—that is the true answer. Seeing that is the real answer.

[Restoration of the three feasts]
So God gave a special gift. What gift? Today, I spoke about the restoration of the three feasts.

[Restoration of identity]
What comes from the restoration of the three feasts? Through the Passover, Pentecost, and Ingathering, the identity of those of us once completely bound by Satan is restored.

[Restoration of authority]
It is not just a blessing. From being a colony enslaved to Rome under Satan’s grip, our authority is fully restored.

You must enjoy this answer. If you need health, God will give you health. If you need money, He will give you money. If you need a higher position, He will give you that. But because the true answer is separate from these things, such things…

[Restoration of background]
Our background is completely different. This is why our remnants study—not to follow the world, but to save those trapped in darkness. You must confirm this now. Without this confirmation, you will keep wandering like unbelievers.

So what answer has God given us?

[Salvation, power (journey), background of the throne]
Through the Passover, He gave us salvation. Through Pentecost, He now gives us power to walk the journey. Ingathering is our incredible background—the background of the throne.

This is still at work today. This is the real answer. And with this answer, you do not just end it—you go as a witness. From now on, all of you here must receive 300% answers… What is 300%?

[Bartizan of the throne, only]
The fact that God has given us the bartizan of the throne is 100%. Not 90%. From this, “only” is discovered in me. Receive this this week. This is the true answer.

[Journey of the throne, uniqueness]
Your work and studies go on the journey of the throne. What comes from this cannot be taken by anyone. This is where uniqueness comes out. The things of the throne—this is the real answer. Let’s examine it clearly. What answer do Buddhists try to receive? I want to ask a monk—what answer are you trying to receive sitting there? To become Buddha? Becoming Buddha means your state under Satan for all eternity will be fully realized. That is not the way.

[Guidepost of the throne, re-creation]
Humans must be re-created. The reason He gave us the guidepost of the throne is because without being re-created, humans can never receive salvation.

Enjoying these three things is the answer. Receive this answer this week. What about money? That’s true—but that’s the level of unbelievers; it’s not the answer. If you are truly within this blessing, when you need it, it will come. The economy of light, the mission economy, the remnant economy—they are bound to come.

Introduction
If you fail to realize this, three things will come.

  1. A church that cannot evangelize
    What will come? You will become a church that cannot receive any answers and cannot evangelize. Our church must not fail to evangelize. We must save lives.
  2. Disaster for the next generation
    Worse, two more problems follow. You cannot block the disaster that will come to the next generation. Today, a good couple came for counseling with their children. They seem to be sending their child abroad for studies, so I told them about cases where it went wrong and where it went right. In the wrong case, the child is ruined. They understood well. They were truly a good couple. But if the two of them fail to gain strength now, the same problem will come to the next generation. If the church has no power to evangelize, that means it is not receiving answers—so disaster comes. You must block this.
  3. Globalization of spiritual disease
    This is how spiritual disease becomes globalized. That is why we do missions. Fearful things happen.

Main point – Transmission
So today, for you, transmitting the true answer is missions. Three things:

2. Acts 9:1–15 [Passover answer]
First, Acts 9:1–15—this is the start of missions. This is called the Passover answer. It was the moment Paul received salvation.

1) Direct meeting – Here, Paul met Jesus Christ directly. The first answer you must receive is a sure faith in Christ.

2) Light – You may not realize it, but at that moment darkness is bound to flee. Otherwise, it will not leave. At that time in Damascus, light shone upon Paul.

3) Mission – And He gave him the mission: “You are my chosen instrument to carry my name before the people of Israel, the Gentiles, and their kings.” This is the true answer. This is what you truly transmit. Change your thinking completely. “I’m old now; what can I do?” No. You can. In some ways, this blessing allows you to do what even a president or king cannot do. The start of the true answer? Today’s three feasts—the Passover answer.

2. [Pentecost answer]
Second—how will we do world evangelization? The Pentecost answer. Just do as it says in the Bible. You already know.

1) 100% guidance of the Holy Spirit (Acts 13:1–4) – Wherever Paul went, the first thing he did was receive 100% guidance of the Holy Spirit. This came upon them on the day of Pentecost.

2) Work of the Holy Spirit (Acts 13:5–12) – There, Paul fully enjoyed 100% of the work of the Holy Spirit, reviving the field. In Acts 13:5–12, the darkness was broken. This is the Pentecost answer.

3) Fruit of the Holy Spirit (Acts 19:11) – “I must see Rome also.” He bore the sure fruit of the Holy Spirit—he went to Rome. All of this is the Pentecost answer. Today’s message on the three feasts is about what true power and true answer are.

3. [Ingathering answer]
Third—the answer is clear. The Ingathering answer. Take this with you. Paul says in Philippians 3:

1) Power of the throne (Philippians 3:12) – “Not that I have already obtained all this or have already arrived at my goal, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me.” He said he goes only with the power of the throne.

2) Reward of the throne (Philippians 3:14) – “I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward.” A completely different level.

3) Background of the throne (Philippians 3:20) – “Our citizenship is in heaven.” Not Roman citizenship—the background of the throne.

You must know the true answer and transmit it. Earning money? The rich have more than you—are they happy? No. I’ve been in some of their homes—they’re ruined families. Some have two mentally ill family members living inside. That’s not living. They don’t even know why. America and Japan are serious now. To the point where in America, you must never look at someone or pick a fight—you don’t know what will happen. People’s minds are filled with strange things. They don’t know what the real answer is.

This week, may the work of God’s kingdom—the background of the throne, the background of Ingathering—come upon you as you pray. This is the three feasts, and it is extremely important. People love earthly things so much, but Paul said, “I press on toward the prize for which God has called me heavenward.” Their questions are almost all physical. “Our citizenship is in heaven.” Paul had already gained everything on earth, and he called it all garbage. He considered it loss.

Conclusion – [Evidence]
You must go with evidence. Nothing that happened in powerful nations was of any help. “I consider them loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord.” Hold to clear evidence.

Remnants—there will be many things outside, but do not be shaken. Confirm and hold to sure evidence. The rest will follow. Don’t keep listening to worldly talk and worrying, don’t worry about studies—build the 300%. Start now. That answer is “only,” “uniqueness,” and “re-creation.” What is 300%? Discovering “only” in your work and studies while praying with the power of the throne. Then it’s easy.

The 7 remnants did not compete. Competition? Impossible. Who could Joseph compete with? No one—it’s impossible. They had this (opening statement). They had the real answer. You must have this. And wherever they went, they confirmed it—it’s not that they had nothing and then got an answer. In slavery, works arose in that house. In prison, works arose there.

Wherever you go, it will be like that. The real thing is already there. So why doesn’t it work for you? Start again. Start anew.

I’ve told you before—this start is important. You must know what the answer is. When I first began pioneering in Yeongdo, I thought that was the answer. One night, unexpectedly, someone I knew well came to see me. Without any contact, he drove up to the alley in front of our parsonage. He was an elder from my former church—a man who ran a large business. By now, he had moved to Seoul and become a pastor. He had wealth and preparation. He came saying, “I’ve received an answer to prayer—let’s go.” “Where to?” I asked. He was about ten years older than me. He had built a church, prepared a parsonage, and everything else, and said I should come. He said he would step down and hand it over. At first, I was a little tempted. “This man is offering everything, while I have no house, no church…” He even spoke persuasive words—saying I didn’t know my own worth, that I didn’t belong in a rural place like Yeongdo. For a moment, I began to listen. He said he had everything prepared—house, church, car. But I thought, “If you were going to come, you should have come earlier—why now?” He said he had already received God’s answer. So I thought of your faces and said, “I’ve also received an answer—I can’t go.” “Why not?” “Because I promised God and our congregation that even in difficulty, I would do world evangelization here. No matter how good your offer, I can’t go.” That was good guidance. If I had gone, what a strange man I would have been.

So what is world evangelization? This week, you must know what the true answer is. This (whole message) is the real answer. Paul realized this and did world evangelization. We have clear evidence.

  1. WIOS – From now on, all we need is the system of “With,” “Immanuel,” and “Oneness” with God. That’s it.
  2. OURS – “Only,” “Uniqueness,” and “Re-creation” are the real answer, and the system must be made into mine.
  3. Holy meditation age – In all the work fields of our elders and church leaders, along with these two things, you must become witnesses who shine the light that saves the age in the holy meditation age.

Just wait once. Just do this. “Wait for what the Father promised.” Jesus said, “Wait for the gift my Father promised… In a few days you will be baptized with the Holy Spirit. And you will receive power and be my witnesses to the ends of the earth.” You must believe this. Otherwise, you will be deceived. Many people’s questions are shocking—completely worldly, with money as their standard. They ask based on that.

May you have the blessing this week of holding the true answer, changing the world, saving the next generation, and spiritually healing the whole world, in the name of Jesus Christ. Let us give a clap offering of thanks and glory to our Triune God who will use you. All thanks and glory to God. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, let us know the true answer. Let us be witnesses who save the world and those dying in it. Let the power of the throne come upon the studies and work of our church leaders and remnants, so that they may save many unbelievers. Let us be witnesses who solve spiritual problems without ever being deceived. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

PK, MK Identity Recovery – “With”

2024.08.05 PKMK Retreat
Theme: Restoration of PK and MK Identity (Exodus 2:1–10)


Message 2: “With”

Introduction

Many of you asked questions, and I will confirm them after the message.
You must check how much of your questions are addressed in the message. Older people often fall. Why is that? It’s because their center of gravity and rhythm are off. Rhythm is very important. It’s different from speed. Rhythm means that the whole pace is in harmony.
1) Morning prayer – In my case, I wake up very early in the morning. Sometimes I wake up without an alarm, and once I’m up, I don’t go back to sleep. Sometimes I wake up at 5, sometimes at 4. From that moment, I start praying. That is my morning prayer. Because I have to move at that time, I take deep, long breaths. In this way, I pray for several hours. Sometimes I pray while moving and preparing. Sometimes I use an oxygen tank to breathe oxygen while praying. According to the situation, I pray for several hours in the morning, mostly for the day’s schedule. When I do this, I already receive all the answers and strength in the morning. Then I come to meet you. That is when the dialogue prayer with God truly begins. Even what I see becomes prayer. The message and the preparation for it become prayer. Conversations with people—those too become prayer. When things are difficult, I turn them into prayer. Sometimes you feel suffocated, right? Turn that into prayer. If you continue like this, later you’ll begin to see many amazing things. After the meeting, I prepare messages in earnest. Sometimes I give hundreds of messages a month, so I continue to focus and pray with those messages. That’s what we call 24. Even if it’s just 5 minutes upon waking up, it’s good. If you really don’t want to pray, then at least do it before you get out of bed. Taking a shower, then praying—those are religious acts. Even if you yawn while praying, God understands.
2) Daytime prayer – During the day, you should do a type of prayer where you find meaning. “Church and study are hard”—even that is finding meaning. “How should I study?” All of that is prayer.
3) Night prayer – Before you sleep, you must pray, slightly riding the flow of the message. If possible, listen to both the headquarters message and the missionary’s message. If you’ve already heard the missionary’s message—usually it’s your parent—then ride the flow with the headquarters message. It will surprise you. That is 24.

24 / 25 / eternity / implementation / mystery
Then, there are times when something important comes up. Or something difficult. Or you may be facing something now. That’s when you need to concentrate—on one thing. And it’s amazing. Keep concentrating until the answer comes. That’s why this message talks about limited concentration, selective concentration (because God has already given it), and Oneness concentration (because God keeps the goal). That’s what we call 25. This is a real and practical message. As you continue this prayer, eventually you’re doing this (24). And from there, it leads to this (25). If you continue this, you begin to see works. That is what we call eternity. The works that come from this prayer are eternal.

So don’t let your guard down. If something comes out from your prayer, that later becomes something tremendous. That’s why I say to take notes and collect prayer journals. Later, they become your true asset.
When you grow older, those become great works. Whether it’s drawing, music, or writing a book, it will come out. It influences others. Then you must go 300% ahead in those things. That’s what we call implementation. While doing 24, because in the end, all we have is 24, we must utilize it. At this point, we have a mystery. It descends from above. Right? We have a mystery—an unshakable mystery. We also have many very important mysteries to enjoy. You find answers here. Pastors get messages here. It’s important.

So then, what is the second part of today’s message? It’s WITH.
WITH contains something very important. What were Jesus’ first words? “Follow Me,” right? And when the disciples came to Him, Jesus said this: “I called you to be with Me.” That is a very important statement. No teacher had ever stayed with their students. Jesus was with His disciples. And Jesus’ final words were: “Surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” In the spiritual world, this is tremendous. He said He would be with us by the Holy Spirit. This word WITH is incredibly important.

Lecture 4: With Christ (Philippians 3:21, Matthew 16:16, 2 Corinthians 5:17, 1 Corinthians 3:16, Galatians 2:20) 

Then how do we enjoy this blessing? With Christ. Why not say “with God”? Because the way to become a child of the Triune God is Christ. Without this word, there is no salvation. So when we say “with Christ,” it also means “with the Triune God.”

How important is Christ? Philippians 3:21 says He will bring everything under His control. Try this during your focused prayer. Really pray in the name of Christ, and you will see something amazing. That’s why Peter confessed, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” What happens then? Even if you don’t realize it, you are changed. Your spiritual DNA is changed. That’s huge. Spiritual DNA is transformed.

I’ve said this before—if you have a close friend, go with them to the best fortune teller in your area. That becomes your first evangelism. Don’t go alone—it could be dangerous. Go with someone who knows the area. Just go visit a fortune teller’s place. That person will instantly recognize you. Amazing, right? Why? Because the Holy Spirit is in you. “Don’t you know you are God’s temple and that God’s Spirit dwells in you?” So Paul said this at the end: “I no longer live, but Christ lives in me.” That’s incredible. The forces of darkness come to attack you, but Christ is in you. Disasters come, but Christ is in you. That’s why He said, “It is finished.”

Introduction – The 7 Bartizans
So what must we do? We must build the 7 bartizans within ourselves. Through prayer. Got it? Do this mostly in the morning—7 bartizan prayer.

Main point – Once this happens, three things emerge.

1. Identity
You have an identity. “I am a child of God. I am an MK. I am a PK.” Your identity emerges.

2. Authority
Authority comes according to your identity. Christ is revealed in proportion to your identity.

3. Name
Because we are God’s children, we use the authority in the name of Christ. So Jesus’ final promise in His public ministry was this: “Pray in My name.” No need to sacrifice lambs anymore. “Pray in My name.” No need to keep the festivals anymore. “Pray in My name”—the name before which the forces of darkness tremble, the name by which all creation submits.

♠ Conclusion: Platform ♠
At this point, a critical conclusion emerges.
When you keep praying like this every morning, it becomes your platform. Then it comes. When I dig a well, women come to draw water. Right? If I build a bridge across a wide river, people cross it. To fly, you go to the airport. Platform—because you have a platform God has given you, the answers begin. Don’t lose it. Absolutely do this prayer (7 bartizans).

Lecture 5: With the Remnant (Luke 23:28, John 21:15–18)

This is Lecture 5. Then, with whom should we enjoy this blessing? With the Remnant.
Jesus said, “Do not weep for Me; weep for your children.” That means something important will happen to the next generation.
After His resurrection, Jesus came to Peter—even though Peter had run away and returned to fishing. Jesus came and asked him the same question three times: “Do you love Me?”
Some scholars say the words used were different each time, but in fact, they were the same words with varied terms. Ultimately, it was the same question.
On the third time, Peter responded, “Lord, You know that I love You.”
His previous denial wasn’t the truth—it was because he was afraid. That was a lie. But when he said, “Lord, You know that I love You,” that was true.
Then Jesus said, “Feed My lambs.” That is what He said.
So being with the Remnant is something very important. And you will come to know this more and more.

Introduction – Privileges of PKs and MKs (7 journeys)
PKs and MKs have received tremendous privileges.
So to enjoy this blessing, what must you do? You’ve already heard it—7 bartizans. Now what else comes out of this? The 7 journeys.
What are the 7 journeys? They are the path through which the Triune God works.
This is a tremendous journey. There are ten firm platforms—ten secrets to surviving any environment. That’s how you go forward.
There are five absolute assurances. Nine flows that change the world. That’s how you proceed.
You walk with answers for your entire life. Then it becomes your camp.
This is the journey. This prayer (7 bartizans) is mainly done in the morning, but this journey becomes your daytime prayer.

Main point – What comes from this? Three very important things.

1. Acts 17:1 (Christ)
Acts 17:1 – Why have global superpowers fallen through wars?
Why do the greatest nations now have the highest rates of mental illness?
Why is Japan, one of the best and wealthiest countries in Asia, full of mental illness?
Why has drug addiction become normalized in Europe? You must be careful when you go there.
Why is this happening? Because they do not know the word “Christ.”
So this is what you must explain.

2. Acts 18:4 (Worship and prayer)
On the Sabbath, he went to the synagogue.
What is the most important thing for you? Worship and prayer.
PKs and MKs can easily lose hold of this, thinking, “My dad is the one preaching.”
You must change this from today.
Pastors often miss grace because they think, “I’m the one preaching.” That’s a huge mistake.
We are delivering the Word of God. I receive great grace.
While preparing the Word, I can feel myself being transformed. The answers come in such a surprising way.
Sometimes, as I read the Bible, it matches events perfectly. You must save the Remnants with this.

3. Acts 19:8 (Answer – the kingdom)
Acts 19:8 – What is the true answer? The kingdom of God comes upon you.
Then, naturally, you become a witness.
This is not just words. When Satan is bound, the kingdom of God comes.
When the Holy Spirit comes, the kingdom of God comes.
Unbelievable things happen.
The 7 Remnants overcame their crises—why? Because the kingdom of God came upon them.
When PKs and MKs pray with assurance, the kingdom of God is established.
You must believe this. All the forces of darkness surrounding your church, troubling your surroundings—they are bound in the name of Jesus Christ.

♠ Conclusion: Watchman Bartizan ♠
Then what conclusion comes?
Finally, a watchman bartizan that shines the light to save others is raised.
Not only is a platform formed, but now a watchman bartizan is built to shine the light so others may come.
Because you must walk this journey while shining the light, another kind of answer begins.
People begin to come to you. Eventually, they will flock to you—to see the light.

Lecture 6: With the 237 Nations and the 5000 Tribes (Matthew 28:16–20, Mark 16:15–20, Acts 16:16–18) 

This is the final Lecture 6. With whom must we be? With the 237 nations and 5000 tribes.
Whoever is in this field is a blessed person.
Jesus, after His resurrection, said: “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to Me. Go and make disciples of all nations. Surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
He has all authority—therefore, you must stand on this path.
You are the blessed ones. Your parents are already on this path.
You may say, “I have no fruit.” That doesn’t matter.
A missionary family once came to our village. They built a small chapel and left. I attended that church.
Others may not know, but I lived my life of faith there.
Now I go to Australia to proclaim the gospel.
You never know what kind of fruit the seeds your parents sowed will bear.
No one knows. I don’t even have any relation to that church anymore.
But Jesus said: “In My name, drive out demons.” He clearly said it.
“In My name, lay hands on the sick and they will be healed.”
From now on, you must have assurance of healing.
Every year, our leader retreat will focus on healing. You must pray.
“In My name, lay hands on the sick and they will be healed.”
The Lord seated on the throne was with them.
Paul continued this ministry.
“In the name of Jesus Christ, I command you—come out, you evil spirit!” Immediately, the demon left!

Introduction – Era of the 5000 Tribes (7 guideposts)
This is something you must remember.
We are not merely evangelizing the 5000 tribes. That’s not the point.
We must see the era of the 5000 tribes.
That is the key.
Then what must happen? You must establish guideposts in your life.

What kind of guideposts?
(1) Calvary guidepost – The guidepost where everything ended.
(2) Mt Olive guidepost – The mission of the throne.
(3) Mark’s Upper Room guidepost – Experience God’s power and the transformation of the age.
(4) Antioch guidepost – This is the field where your parents are working.
(5) Acts 13:1–5 guidepost – Completely receiving guidance of the Holy Spirit in Asia.
Sometimes, evangelism and missions don’t seem to work.
(6) “Come to Macedonia” guidepost – Later, when great works arose.
**(7) “You must also see Rome” guidepost – “Take courage. You must testify in Rome. Don’t be afraid, Paul. You must stand before Caesar.”
Not, “You’ve suffered enough.” Not, “I’ll let you rest now.”
Just one thing: “You must stand before Caesar. You must proclaim the gospel to Caesar.”

You are remaining to proclaim the gospel.
That’s why God says, “Do not be afraid.”
This is the guidepost you must establish in your life.
That’s it. It is impossible for answers not to come.
Absolutely enter into this. Always…

Main point – Then what comes? Three things.

1. Main figures of the three courtyards
You become the main figures of the three courtyards.
Establish three courtyards as guideposts.

2. Main figures of the three-day weekend age
You are the main figures of the three-day weekend age.

3. Main figures of TCK / CCK / NCK
You are TCKs—the main figures of the TCK age.
Who should TCKs reach out to?
To Remnants in the third-culture world, or in completely opposite cultures.
This “C” stands for “cross.” Cross-culture kids.
Then what is “N”? It means “Not.”
Completely “None-culture kids.”
You must explain this to them.
It’s okay if answers don’t come yet. But they will come.

♠ Conclusion: Antenna ♠
What happens at this point?
God gives you the antenna to save the age.
Just as inserting a chip into a phone connects you to the whole world,
God—being omnipotent—has given you the chip of the Holy Spirit through prayer.
You are connected to the whole world.
This must be passed on.

Q&A for PKs and MKs
Now, I will briefly answer your questions…

(Q&A content follows exactly as written in your original text, already translated.)

Prayer. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, King of kings, the great love of God our Father, and the powerful working of the Holy Spirit be with all PKs and MKs who will save the world, from now until eternity. Amen.
