Economy of Light

Prayer Journal: November 7, 2025
12.~13. Nov. 2024 The 8th Asia Businessperson’s Conference
Theme: “Restoration of the 3 Economies”, Lecture 1
Scripture Reading: Acts 18:1-4


Three lectures will still go out this time. You should take notes, but you must completely digest them within your life. Especially now, this is the industry conference. You must surely restore the “three kinds of economy.” “How can we do that?” Also, here are our scattered disciples—important disciples who are facing great hardships in the field. “How did the Early Church accomplish world evangelization amid those difficulties?” Among you are also Remnants. “What must Remnants prepare in advance?” That is this lecture. “What should our young adults and many others do before they go out into the world?” There will also be some who say, “My body, my health is not good.” Do not worry; I hope you resolve it at this time. There will also be those who struggle because of spiritual problems, and you will meet such people. What answer should you give? “I possess nothing right now—what should I do?” Such people will also be present. This must become the timetable in which you hold to the Word and make a completely new start.

You may consider that it has not yet begun. Why is that?
Peter confessed, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” Jesus gave an immense blessing: “You are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church; the authority of darkness, the gates of Hades, will not overcome you.” And He said, “I give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven.” Yet He then said, “Tell no one.” We must understand this. After giving such an immense blessing, He said, “Tell no one.” What is the reason? He gathered them at Mt Olive and said, “From now on, go to the ends of the earth.” Therefore, until they were gathered at Mt Olive, it had not yet truly begun. Knowing only that “Jesus is the Christ” is enough to be saved, but it has not yet started.

Last sermon – Therefore Jesus gave a few things we must certainly reference first. He gave His final message. We must remember this. It was His last word, and He spoke of important matters.
Bartizan 100%, Journey 100%, Guidepost 100% – He said to build the bartizan for you, and to go the journey with this bartizan. I have found the 7 bartizans and the 7 journeys. Thus, you must know these very important things in order for the church to be revived and people to be revived. He spoke of the guideposts. These three are very important. God has prepared them perfectly for you. Not 99%, but 100%. You must find this, right? And along the road you go, within the journey, He has prepared 100%. Not 99%, but 100%. And at each point He has prepared guideposts by which your industry and studies come to life—100%.
300% – This is called the 300% preparation. This must be prepared. If this is done, then inevitably you will succeed in industry, in evangelism, and in all things. In one sense, you know the 7 bartizans/journeys/guideposts. In another sense, these may look like something vague. A five-million-won bill is visible to the eyes, right? This may sound like some excited talk. This must be seen as substance. Faith is the substance of things hoped for; it is unseen. When this appears to you as substance, works begin.
Fullness of the Holy Spirit – This is what we call the fullness of the Holy Spirit. Regarding me, regarding the field, regarding the system, all the future preparation has been completed. You believe, see it, and go. “I live in a place where it is difficult to proclaim the gospel.” That is the very best timetable. It is the best timetable to find true disciples.

From this time you will begin to revive the church. Thus what arises is the “Economy of Light.” This is the first answer you must receive. What is the first answer industry people must receive? The Economy of Light. It is not at all difficult. I know with certainty what will happen going forward. From now on, only the disciples who have obtained this answer will remain. Remnants, go out with this. You must surely remember this. As I have said many times, receiving this answer is far easier—especially before you go out into the field.

What did I prepare in university and graduate school? I prepared 100% how I would evangelize. Then, while attending university and graduate school, I entered the field every day. I verified the field. Then, what should I do going forward? I prepared the system 100%. It is truly amazing, isn’t it? When I came out like this, it became very easy. Church revival began to occur rapidly. Today Missionary Lee Won-Hee confessed it: he did nothing special, but works arose wherever he went. I was amazed. Many pastors receive ordination and yet do not know how to evangelize—does that make sense? It does not. That is why, is it not said that the best-selling books at Christian bookstores are sermon collections? Pastors do not know how to preach, so they buy many sermon collections and read them. If this answer comes out, sermons inevitably come out. What you must not worry about is that wherever you go and whomever you meet, you can give them an answer.

Why is that? Unseen to the eye, the Triune God works within you. Right? That is not all. He works with the power of the throne. What kind of power is that? At last you receive the power that surpasses the past/present/future. The five powers arise. You receive the power to overcome the prince of the power of the air. And what else? You see the future. You see CVDIP. In your industry and church, and wherever you go, you can build the three courtyards. In one sense, that is the ends of the earth. Now, what have I just spoken of? I have spoken of the 7 bartizans. They are 100%. Just pray.

Then on the road of our life, three things will inevitably be fulfilled: the Word, prayer, and evangelism, right? This road is the road of the Triune God. We go that way. It is far easier, for we go where the Word is fulfilled. From this time, the 10 mysteries begin to appear in the field. You take those along. There are 10 unshakable platforms, correct? The five assurances, the nine flows, the answer for your lifetime, you can give these. All of life is the camp of the throne. I have now spoken of the journey. It is 100%. Go this way. There is nothing to worry about. I tell the sick not to worry—if you pray this prayer, the disease must flee. Do not try to solve spiritual problems—if you keep to this, the spiritual problems will disappear.

And what else? At various points there is the most important blessing of Mount Calvary; there is the mission of Mt Olive; there is the experience of Mark’s upper room; there is the epochal turning point of the Antioch church; in Asia there is the start of receiving perfect leading by the Holy Spirit; in Macedonia, when the door was shut, there is the turning point; “You must also see Rome.” I have now spoken of the 7 guideposts. This is my prayer. If you do this, it will be done.

If so, the 300% will be prepared and will come as an answer. Then “Ah, going forward, I should do this” will rise up in you. Even when going to the evangelism field, this will come out. Truly, works arise wherever you go. “What should we do for the Sunday School?” What is this? The Sunday School children are about to graduate, but they do not know the gospel and cannot pray; begin with that. Children come to church, hear sermons, and do not receive grace. Thus, we gathered them by groups and began Bible study. Field-orientation. And what else? We made a system by which the children can move on their own. System 100%. Inevitably, works occur. Do business that way as well. From now on, Remnants, prepare this and go out.

Then, since you have heard this many times, I will say just one more thing. When I entered Yeongdo to plant a church, we had no church building and nothing at all. But we needed a place to worship, didn’t we? We needed a place for early morning prayer, didn’t we? We borrowed someone else’s factory only during the time it was empty on Sundays. Bartizan. For two weeks I held a revival meeting, opening everything for two weeks with the messages I wanted to preach. It was prepared. Then, in the Yeongdo newspaper, I sent a letter in such a way that every person in Yeongdo would see it—13 questions. And in 276 places—300 places—we simultaneously carried out the Word movement. Field-orientation. And many—no need to be especially “smart.” We raised disciples and sent them out. System. Then in less than three years, one thousand congregants gathered. Normally in Yeongdo, only 10, 20, 30 people gather. Passing 10, suddenly 3,000 disciples arose. It is true.

▣ Introduction: Light (Me – Re-creation)

Thus, industry people, when you restore the Economy of Light, then what is this light, first of all? It is the re-creation of me. This is important. God re-creates me. This must be done first. Then the light of God must come upon me. What does it mean that the light of God has come upon me?

  1. Genesis 1:1–3; Isaiah 60:1–2; Matthew 5:13–16 – In Genesis 1:1–3, the light of creation came upon me. Right? The light of creation came upon me. In Isaiah 60:1–2, “Arise, shine,” and it says, “The glory of the LORD has risen upon you.” What is above is the light of creation; this is the light of glory. Right? This light has come upon me. At the moment of salvation, it is not “Become the light of the world,” but “You are the light of the world!”
  2. John 1:11 – Now, this must come upon me. What did this Word say? Jesus came as the light, and because He came as the light, those who received this light were given the authority to become children of God. Do not be deceived; just form this and see. Darkness cannot overcome you. Do not listen to the voices of the fake. Darkness can never overcome you. Right?
  3. 1 Peter 2:9 – And in 1 Peter 2:9, He called us to proclaim this light—as light. This is not just some ordinary light. Even here, if there were no lights, what would happen? It would be pitch dark. But this is not this kind of light (electric light). The light of creation, the light of life, the light of glory, the light of God that eliminates darkness has come upon us.

7/7/7

If so, there is one thing you must do. It is very easy. Begin today.
3 Concentrations – With this bartizan, journey, and guidepost, you do the three concentrations. What are the three concentrations? Easy. When you wake up in the morning, begin this prayer. Remnants, even five minutes is fine. I pray for hours. In the morning, the moment I wake up—today I came this far for the conference. Up to here is “morning” for me. I departed around 6 a.m. to come to today’s conference. So from the time I woke up until 6, that is “morning” for me. During that time I continuously do this prayer. How do I do it? I say this for the sick among you and those with spiritual problems. I continue with 1:1 breathing. What is 1:1? Exhale as much as you inhale. Those who have had cancer must do this unconditionally. Those who are now older must do this unconditionally. Your brain, lungs, and all muscles are collapsing. You must do it. And when I meet people—when I meet you—that is “day” for me. At that time, with what do I pray? I turn all meetings and everything into prayer. At that time I use breathing that can maintain health and strength. At night I enter into deep prayer without movement. I cannot avoid doing this. I must prepare the message, so at night I obtain the answer, and I deliver that answer the next day. You must surely do this. Do not set a rigid time to pray. That does not last long. If your eyes did not open, that means you have gone to heaven; but if your eyes open, you must get up, right? Do it then. In the morning, things that save me must take place. In the morning, I must surely gain strength. In the morning, I must restore all things. Turn everything into prayer. Do this.
3 Settings – If you do this, three things become set. What becomes set? A platform is made. Once the platform is made, they come to you. In a sense, even without doing an evangelism movement, they are evangelized and come. That is the true case. Platform. I did not go to find them, but they come to find me. Having watched you ordinarily, when they have a problem, they come to you. Then you set up a watchman’s bartizan so that that person can see and come. This is made. Communication comes forth that connects God and the world. With one prayer, you enter into prayer. There are very few who truly know prayer. Prayer moves the throne. Prayer is what allows the Triune God to come upon me. When I inhale, I attach each one so that this will come upon me; when I exhale, I connect it to you, to the conference site, and to matters present. If Elder Park suddenly comes to mind at that time, I pray toward Elder Park. If Hong Kong and such places mainly come to mind, I continue. Then that itself becomes 24.
3 Answers – If you do this, the answer to problems becomes visible. And there are many difficulties and conflicts, right? From there, answers for renewal come out again. A crisis is an opportunity. We call this the three answers. You must surely remember this.

If you continue this for quite a while, the system is made. This is the true answer. That a system has been made—what does it mean? It is strange for me if I do not pray. Prayer has become a system. You simply sit, right? I cannot but do long breathing; I do it long. System. This is what is made. I cannot do this work if I do not do 24-hour prayer. Before, I did it arduously; now I do it while enjoying.

▣ Main –  Evangelism Movement

At this time, something very important becomes visible to you. A very important evangelism movement begins to arise. When this begins to arise—this arises. At this time, the offering you give to the church is the start of the Economy of Light. Right? If you help a robber, then what you help is robbery, right? If you help a murderer, then what you help is murder. If you help a drug addict, then the help you give is a crime. Offering at a church that does the evangelism movement is the start of the Economy of Light. The true Economy of Light must come. I will give seven Scripture passages.

  1. Acts 2:43–45 – Acts 2:43–45. Having received grace at Mark’s upper room, those who had come from far away gave all that they had as offering. This is the start of the Economy of Light. The offering you give at your church is the start of the Economy of Light.
  2. Acts 4:32–37 – Barnabas. He gave the land he possessed. This became an astonishing event in the Early Church. Thus, from next Lord’s Day, when you give offering, your offering is the start of the Economy of Light—if it is a church that evangelizes, right? If it is indeed a church that evangelizes, it is the Economy of Light. If I were a layperson, I would not attend a church that does not evangelize. Why go there? A waste of time and money—it will not do. Hence the world’s churches are closing. They are closing even now. Many church leaders are here; hold to the 300% covenant and save the age. They will surely come. They will surely come.
  3. Acts 9:36–43 – Look at this. A woman named Tabitha. Her small service became the start of the Economy of Light. The work of saving Joppa took place.
  4. Acts 10:1–45 – Acts 10. Simon the tanner—he was a leather worker. There is a record that he hosted Peter. The leather work he did was the Economy of Light. Thus he was led to meet Cornelius.
  5. Acts 16:11–15 – Look carefully at Scripture—Acts 16:11–15. Lydia, a dealer in purple cloth. Purple cloth means there were also the rich. That is not the point. “Come into my house and stay.” This is the Economy of Light. She saved all of Philippi. Believe this.
    Missionaries are now fighting a lonely battle, but they are people who evangelize. The offerings you give are the Economy of Light that appears unto eternity. Do you understand what I mean? Korea was, in the past, a beggar nation. China tormented us, Japan tormented us, Russia tormented us—our nation was such a nation. At that time missionaries came in. Light began to shine upon our nation. The foreign missionaries protected all the pains that our nation was suffering. Right? Middle-ranking church leaders in places like Australia gathered and gave offerings. They built churches in our towns that had suffered fires. Because of that, my family attended church. As time passed, I go to Australia to proclaim the gospel. Amazingly, connections are made. The missionary who had done missions in Vanuatu came to Busan, Korea, and that missionary built that church—his name was Mackenzie. Thus I also go to Vanuatu for missions. There is nothing vain. The offering you give with this answer is the start of the Economy of Light.
  6. Acts 18:1–4 – Look at this. The couple Priscilla and Aquila met the evangelist Paul and were used for a lifetime in proclaiming the gospel. I have confirmed in documents that they became very wealthy.
  7. Romans 16:1–27 – Romans 16:1–27—such blessings became the start of the Economy of Light.
    From today begin this prayer: “Restore the Economy of Light.” Tomorrow two lectures remain: “Restore the missions economy”—we must restore it, correct? And what is the last thing we must do? “Restore the Remnant economy that saves the posterity.” This is the blessing industry people must receive. Our first point is what? Restore the Economy of Light. Start unconditionally like this. Then the door of the 300% answer opens. While you pray this prayer, something important happens to you. What takes place now among our industry people? You completely restore these three economies. We must do missions, must we not? You must restore these three economies. And many scattered disciples—when you enter into this 300% prayer, God leads you to meet disciples whom He has prepared. No matter how many of the fake ones you meet, it is useless. God-prepared disciples—today we met scattered disciples; God-prepared disciples. Through that, all the Economy of Light, missions economy, and Remnant economy begin to be restored. Especially our Remnants—you must first take this and go out into the world. While studying, prepare expertise, field-orientation, and system completely. With what? With prayer. How simple is that? People do not know prayer, but by prayer you can make everything. Especially for the sick and the many who are spiritually troubled—healing.

▣ Conclusion

hen here is the conclusion for the Economy of Light. How can we do this?

  1. 24 (Enjoy) – 24. Then inevitably 25 comes. Right? And then what? The answer of eternity comes. What is this 24? It means enjoyment. Simply do 24.
  2. 25 (Concentration) – What is 25? Once a day, concentrate on this 7/7/7. It is extremely important. The sick, do not worry—just enter deeply into this once a day. Cancer patients, do not worry—just enter deeply into this once a day. You saw it before, right? The doctors could not understand it. Someone had cancer, and it had spread elsewhere—the doctor said that because it had spread so much, nothing could be done. That person came to Busan. He concentrated on breathing and prayer. It is beyond comprehension. The doctor cannot understand it. “Is this believable?” A normal result—he received a normal diagnosis at the hospital. I know this. The secret of concentration. Do it. An amazing thing will happen to you. Forty days of concentration turned the world upside down. We are losing the immense blessings that have come to us.
  3. Eternity (300%) – What is eternity? It is a masterpiece. We call this 300%.
    imply enjoy. You must surely have it at least once—concentration. Do 24 comfortably. With eyes open, when you return home, find answers while praying, and turn all meetings with people during the day into prayer. There are a lot of needless words; turn them into prayer. Because they say only wrong things, turn them into prayer. Because they speak only worldly words that give no blessing, turn them into prayer. Right? And then concentrate just once—bartizan/journey/guidepost. Then this comes out. What comes out is eternity. As you enjoy this blessing, it is God’s Word.

I have not come to teach but as a witness. In my childhood I saw poverty, disease, and incompetence. I held to those and began to pray. Amazingly, the answers came for my entire life. So before going into the field, I prepared evangelism 300%. Now I am preparing for the 237 nations and the 5,000 tribes. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that a new beginning will arise for you.

Prayer. We give thanks to God. May this conference become the most important conference in my life. May it be a conference in which disease departs. May it be a conference in which poverty and curses depart. May it be a conference in which industry people revive the church. May it be a conference in which industry people do missions. May it be a conference in which the posterity is saved. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

7 Guideposts the New Believer Makes

Prayer Journal: November 6, 2025
05. Nov. 2024 237 New Believers & Field Ministers’ Training, Lecture 3
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:8


Among our well-known sayings, there is the story of “Sai-ong loses his horse.”
“Saeng” is the man’s name—the story is the words of Old Man Saeng. This is worth telling to new family members (newcomers). A servant came and said, “Master, a great misfortune has happened.” “What is it?” “The horse ran away from home.” Old Man Saeng replied, “A horse has legs—of course it can go somewhere.” A little later, “A very happy thing has happened.” “What is it?” “The horse came back and brought another one.” “That can happen too; perhaps its owner will come.” Then again, “Now truly a great misfortune has happened.” “What is it?” “Your son fell while riding and injured his leg.” “That can happen too.” “A very good thing has happened. They are conscripting soldiers now, but because your son hurt his leg, he will not have to go to the army.”

What was so good? What was so bad? You must tell this to newcomers. What, really, is the problem? The things you think are hardships—you are actually receiving blessing. You realize it after the fact. Seeing it beforehand is what we call faith. So tell the newcomer that story. What is your real problem? We have to examine that. What Christians think are “problems” are almost never the real problem, right? We keep calling things problems. Because we called what is not a problem a problem, there is no answer. We must untie that knot—truly explain it and untie it. And from now on you must set up guideposts. That is the most important thing. Real answers come out of guideposts.

▣ Introduction – 300% (Work/Evangelism/Missions)
Make everything 300%—your work, and evangelism, and missions; especially the children’s studies. Last week at the university student gathering I told them, “Be sure you prepare this and go out.” This has already been said, hasn’t it? What God has prepared for me—we should, of course, find it. Concerning me: 100%. Surely there is God’s plan in the field: we find that—100%. Then reproduction and continuation must take place—100%…

Pastors must do this. If you set up just a few absolute bartizans like this, the church will be revived by itself—continuously. In Busan, a college student who was from Seoul was studying in Busan. One of our Remnants attended the same school and shared the gospel. He truly received the gospel—he was a prepared person. He kept attending Busan Immanuel Church, graduated, went up to Seoul, became a physician, and registered at Yewon Church—and became an elder there. As it happened, when I was laying on hands, he sat right in front of me. It’s not easy to meet like that, right? How meaningful was it to me! A complete unbeliever in Busan received the gospel and became an elder at Yewon Church. God had prepared it perfectly.

1. Calvary – “It is finished.”
The Calvary guidepost—tell them to enjoy this every day. There is much to say, but: “It is finished. It is finished.”

2. Mt Olive – My mission
The Mt Olive guidepost—this is where you find your very important personal mission. Even if one is a newcomer, it must be found.

3. Mark’s upper room – My prayer
Then they came to Mark’s upper room. What must not be missed here is this: find “my prayer.” How will you enjoy happiness and enjoy power in prayer? We must give this.

4. Antioch – My evangelism and missions
Antioch. From now on, because things are prepared, look for them: my evangelism, my missions. They surely exist, so we should find them. Within this, every answer is fulfilled.

5. Asia – Start of life (100% led by the Holy Spirit)
In Asia (Acts 13:1–4). Because this part is so important, this is always the start of life: to be perfectly led by the Holy Spirit. Do it this way from now on. If you don’t know, then wait. “100% led by the Holy Spirit”—say this.

6. Macedonia – Turning point
Macedonia. So when doors are blocked and things don’t work, don’t give up and don’t flail about. It is a very important time. At such times you will meet turning points in life.

7. Rome – My “ends of the earth”
Be sure to say this. Rome—this guidepost is my ends of the earth. My ends of the earth is Rome.

First help them understand like this. You also must receive this blessing. If you speak of things that are too difficult, newcomers can’t do them. Tell them what they can do, but tell them what is most important. If you set up the guideposts at which you received these answers and then work from there, God’s work will arise because of those people.

▣ Main

1. Change your morning routine.
From now on, change your morning routine. This is very important.

1) Prayer that revives me
Absolutely—prayer that revives me. As said before about “prayer that revives me”…
(1) Brain – The brain that keeps dying is revived.
(2) Spirit – My spirit is revived.
(3) Body – As a result, the body is revived. This must be given.

2) 7/7/7 concentrated prayer
And, of course, the guideposts—keep offering prayer about the 7/7/7. Do it even once—offer one concentrated prayer about these guideposts, even once. Through concentration, everything happens. Concentration has tremendous meaning.

3) Leeway
And in the morning hours, you must find great leeway—margin. Find it. In a sense, it is enjoyment. Explain it simply.

2. Daytime
Daytime.

1) Conversational prayer
In the daytime, offer conversational prayer with God.

2) Work, people, field
About what? All work, all people, and all fields—you meet them, don’t you? Enjoy these through prayer. Everything changes completely.

3) The seven Remnants
That was the prayer of the seven Remnants. Joseph went as a slave and could not go aside somewhere to pray. He began to pray within his work. You need this secret. “How do I do breathing?”—pray within everything. On my flight to Munich this time I watched something about meditation. Early morning—there’s a nice little garden and a chair, and they do it there. That will surely help. But I laughed as I watched. Doing it like that, you cannot conquer the world. We must do 24. It is entirely possible. The seven Remnants did 24. And they received important answers. When sleeping, of course, one can do it comfortably.

3. Nighttime
Nighttime.

1) Answer
At night you must absolutely obtain answers. Don’t just fall asleep. Get the answer—whether through prayer or by praying on the Word of God until assurance comes. I actually pray this prayer a lot: “God, what is the meaning of this Word?” I may know it, but I still pray over it. That is why, to me, “being filled with the Holy Spirit” is this (300%): making everything God has given fully mine. I gain many prayers’ answers through questioning prayer.

2) Strength
You must gain strength at night. A bit of an issue is that sometimes sleep flees.

3) Healing
At night, healing happens.

You must teach this—simply. In the morning, like this; in the day, absolutely like this; at night, like this. As for my own method of concentration: Immanuel Kant concentrated by hiking—every day, at exact times—housewives could tell the time by seeing Kant pass by. That too is tremendous concentration. Edison used fishing—to build his concentration. I do this concentration by breathing. In the morning, a 1:1 ratio—slow inhale and exhale—praying; I still do it now. While interpreting, I inhale and exhale as I speak, doing it comfortably. Do everything with prayer, then give a focused 10 minutes. Do it every day like that. Teach newcomers concretely and simply so they can actually do it.

▣ Conclusion
Then conclude again like this.

1. 24 – Enjoy it
Enjoy 24—enjoy it through prayer.

2. 25 – Take a time of concentration
25—take a time of concentration. Teach it this way.

3. Eternity – Leave a masterpiece
Eternity. From now on, leave the masterpiece of your faith in the church—start from the beginning. David prayed for temple construction from the very beginning. Then history had to arise. These are the three things newcomers must actually enjoy as taught today. Then history will arise because of one person.

Pastors, let me say it again.
Begin to set up the absolute bartizans of 300%. Evangelism cannot fail. History will arise. Do not try to do it by your own strength; begin now entirely by the Spirit’s leading, the Spirit’s work, and the Spirit’s fruit. Then God will give it to you in exquisite ways.

A true disciple is not shaken. If one is shaken, it is a counterfeit. A true disciple does not take offense, right? A true disciple prays for the pastor. A true disciple prays 24 for the pastor. You must surely do so.
If I were a church leader, I would pray 24 for my pastor. I would always give mission offerings to my pastor—sincerely; not just giving, but truly enjoying and receiving blessing. And if I were a church leader, by my temperament, I would build a palace-like house and invite multi-ethnics; I would invite Remnants from the provinces—“Just live here. Don’t do laundry; study. Don’t pay for meals; just eat.” If it were me, I would do so. How good is that! It is raising talent. In those talented ones, you plant the bartizan/journey/guidepost. Will they succeed or not? They will. When they succeed later, “You do the same.” That is world evangelization.

I bless you that this blessing will begin for you in the name of Jesus Christ.

Prayer. May the grace of Jesus Christ who solved every problem, the great love of God, and the working of the Holy Spirit be with all disciples who will accomplish 300%, from now to eternity, always. Amen.

7 Journeys the New Believer Must Go

Prayer Journal: November 5, 2025
05. Nov. 2024 237 New Believers & Field Ministers’ Training, Lecture 2
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:8


It is important to help new family members understand how tremendous the fact of salvation is. We must explain it with things that are easy to grasp.
In fact, geomancy (p’ungsu jiri) is not entirely without “reasons” people give. In real life, some say, “We moved to the wrong place and everything collapsed”—there seems to be some plausibility. They say you must also pick an auspicious day to move. They say if you stop holding the ancestral rites you’ve been doing, problems will come. All of this is the devil’s and evil spirits’ mischief. It is not your deceased parents who come; evil spirits come and mimic them. From all of that you have been completely set free. Once you are saved, dates do not matter at all. Directions do not matter at all. Because it is like this, salvation is tremendous.

So we must let people know how important the fact of salvation is, and we must also let them know one more thing: when someone who has worshiped idols for a long time comes to believe in Jesus, they will face many attacks. It does not matter. You do not need to go sleep at a shaman’s shrine, but even if you did, it would be fine. “Can I eat temple meals?” Eat them with enjoyment. It makes no difference at all. That was the very issue at the church in Corinth, wasn’t it? Because there was so much meat coming out of those enormous temples, it ended up in the marketplace. Should we eat it or not? When you go to a restaurant, you have to buy and eat, right? But people didn’t really know where that meat came from, so debates arose. Paul answered, didn’t he? “What reason is there that you cannot eat? And what reason is there that you must stubbornly insist on eating?” He gave that kind of answer.

So today, our second topic is “The 7 Journeys New Family Members Must Take.” It is very important. Therefore we should first have a forum about the journeys.

① Triune God (the way) —The Triune God is still doing three things now. What is the first? God the Father’s Word is still being fulfilled now. When you pray in the name of Jesus Christ, that prayer is still being answered now. The work of salvation is still taking place now. We are inside of this every single day. Therefore, pray this prayer at least once a day.

② The platforms of the throne —When this is taking place, there are not just random things but 10 platforms that descend from and are moved by the throne. When you have enough time, you can “split” these and pray through them. When you do not have time, you can bind them together and pray.

③ The secrets of the throne —Not just “secrets,” but 10 secrets of the throne.

④ The assurances of the throne —There are 5 assurances that descend from the throne. All these parts are connected to the throne.

⑤ The flows of the throne —The 9 flows are the flows of answers from the throne.

⑥ The answer of the throne (for a lifetime) —And there is certainly the answer that descends from the throne; this answer speaks to your whole lifetime. You must obtain this answer, and you must also give this answer to others. You are delivering the answer one can enjoy for a lifetime. That, now, is the pastor’s commission.

⑦ The camp of the throne —All of life is the camp of the throne. These are the 7 journeys. Therefore, in truth, there is no reason at all to be afraid.

▣ Introduction —And why must we do it like this? We must tell them this. Otherwise, they will be unable to do it.

1. Receive all things
First: you must have the capacity to receive all things. You go with this strength. Because this is a path no one else knows, you are able to enjoy it. This blessing has no competitors. Because people do not know its value, no one comes seeking it. Therefore there are no people who pray like this. Because there are none, you are able to travel this journey. Thus, in fact, the church worldwide is not praying.

2. Transcend all things
Why must it be like this? Because you must transcend all things; you will be able to receive and transcend all things.
In my case, about three years after I planted the church, the persecutions began. “You’re stealing members,” so all the churches in Yeongdo united. And, “You’re evangelizing in the golden fishing grounds,” so all of Busan united. People who usually couldn’t unite—at that time they united only for that. They persecuted us, but I felt none of it. If you feel something, then you react—but I felt nothing at all. Why? Because this blessing was pouring down. Even I could hardly believe it—not unbelief, but history was arising beyond anything I could foresee. From that time until now—what can I say—it has been answers pouring like a sudden downpour.

3. Oneness in all things (Romans 8:26–28)
We must certainly teach this. All things come into Oneness.
Romans 8:26–28—“All things work together for good.” I thought it was simply hardship, but that too was a blessing. I thought a great problem had struck, but that too was a blessing.

Therefore, keeping your mouth closed is best. To the extent you speak, later you will learn you were mistaken. The gospel never disappears.
Right now there is hardly any place doing the 237–5,000 tribes gospel movement. And even if people go and “share,” if they do not surely proclaim the mystery of Christ, it is no different than not having proclaimed at all. Therefore we emphasize the gospel. That is the only difference. Others all proclaim Jesus Christ.

But we proclaim only Jesus Christ. That difference may well exist. And for us, prayer is not just prayer. It is only prayer. Not just evangelism, but only evangelism—only then can we save the world.

① The 7 remnants —So with this we should talk about the 7 remnants. Joseph went as a slave, then to prison—how much did he suffer? All of that was blessing. It was Oneness. It looked like hardship, but all of it was blessing. So what do you think the situation was on the day Joseph became prime minister? He had been suddenly thrown into prison, yet he became prime minister. I think perhaps Potiphar was a bit shocked, wasn’t he? Joseph became higher than he. And to what extent did he become prime minister? The king said, “Over all the people, do as you see fit.” Right? “I am no better than you in anything—except that I occupy the throne.” With that he spoke. He became a prime minister vested with overwhelming power. My guess is that Potiphar’s wife wet herself—out of sheer shock. But even when you examine Scripture carefully, he never touched her with retribution. And who else was shocked? His brothers were shocked. “How can this be?” When they went to buy grain, the younger brother was prime minister. They trembled. And wasn’t this what Joseph said at that time? “It was not you who sold me; God sent me ahead to preserve life.” On the day Jacob passed away, Joseph wept with a solemn cry. Then the brothers were shocked once more. “Now we are finished. Listen to Joseph’s weeping—that is no ordinary weeping.” “Once the funeral is over, we will all die.” Wasn’t that when Joseph said, “You intended evil against me, but God intended it for good. Do not be afraid. I will take full responsibility for your children.” The blessing of Oneness. The 7 remnants. It is fine to tell this story every time you meet.

② Hebrews 11:38 —People “of whom the world was not worthy.” Why? Because they had this strength. So enjoy this through prayer. How simple is it? God gave such a simple answer. If you had to write a dissertation for this—who knows, even Professor Seo might or might not be saved. He wouldn’t be saved. God gave a concise key. That key is prayer. Enjoy this through prayer once a day: the 7 bartizans / the journeys / the guideposts…
Brain / soul / life = body —What happens if you do this daily? It imprints in the brain. That is fearsome. What is imprinted in the brain does not come out. Drug addiction cannot be cured because it is imprinted in the brain. It imprints in the soul. Then, as you commune with what is eternal, it appears in your life. For those who are sick, it appears in the body. So if it is “depression,” do not even think first of “fixing” it. Do this. Do this as 24 / 25 / eternity.

③ Acts 19:8 —So the one who properly enjoyed this answer was Paul. He enjoyed this, right? For three months he explained about the kingdom of God; it says he explained boldly. It says he explained with certainty. This is it. When Jesus, at the beginning, spoke about prayer, He also spoke about this. “The kingdom of God.” Enjoy that—then every answer follows. “All these things will be added to you.” We must let new family members know this—not merely inform them, but imprint it.

▣ Main—Root
Then, as you continue this, you must take root. Now, will answers come or not? Make them take root. From this point history begins. Therefore our pastors must surely do this. First: ① Jerusalem , He said. ② Judea , ③ Samaria , ④ the ends of the earth —words spoken on Mt Olive. While speaking about the kingdom of God.
So how do we help new family members understand this? There are many angles by which we can be graced, but how do we help new family members understand? “ Church ”: that is Jerusalem. “ Field ”: that is Judea. Samaria—though it is incorrect—is “ religion .” “ The ends of the earth ”: this is important. For new family members, “ my problem ” is the ends of the earth. New family members are a bit different. They are just beginning, and there are many problems. This is their ends of the earth.

1. Jerusalem—“Church”

1) The best time (worship)
Therefore, starting next Sunday when you come to worship, know that it is the best time. Make it the best time. Truly. Pastors, when you go to preach, you must go with the greatest blessing. Pray for that.

2) Three flows
And you must ride the three flows. Certainly. The three flows are the flow of the Word, prayer, and the witness. You must check this. A church leader who does not check this, no matter how much he practices the life of faith, will act like a child. If the church does even a little thing “wrong,” he gets sulky. How important a person is a church leader—and yet even a church leader can be like that. The strongest “devil” among devils is the “sulking devil.” If that one crawls in, there is no countermeasure. Why is that? Is that person’s character only that immature? No. In reality that person is failing to ride this flow.

3) Daily
If you ride this flow, the third thing appears: daily. You received grace in Sunday worship, and now you enjoy it daily. Daily in the temple, daily at home—so it becomes. If you teach new family members this way, you have taught them very well.

2. Judea—“Field”

1) Nation
“Judea”—the nation’s issues. Now it is a vassal state. We must come to our senses and pray.
2) Family line
“Family line”—we must block the spiritual problems of the family line.
3) Home (me)
And “home” and “me.” You must certainly teach this to new family members.

I have listened to many fine people broadcasting nowadays. I don’t seek them out, but they pop up on YouTube. They speak very engagingly, with many good words. The theme they mainly take up is comfort . We must teach new family members: do not seek comfort from people. It will never solve things. Receive comfort from God—and with that strength, save that person. A young adult came for counseling and said he had not spoken to his father for three years. He wrote it in the counseling form because his heart hurt. “That is where you are wrong. The very fact that you are seeking comfort from a person is wrong. Your father is not a believer—so you must receive God’s comfort, and with that strength comfort your father. How hard must it have been for your father not to speak to you for three years?” Right? He understood at once. “You are the one who is wrong.” To the many women here: do not try to receive comfort from your husband. What comfort will you get? Even those who have been deaconesses and older, who have believed for long—after meeting friends, they talk all night and cry—try it if you wish; your spiritual state will never grow. Right? And you men—do not try to receive comfort from your wives. How can you trust a man who does that? Receive comfort from God. Then help your wife. If you see faults in your wife—“that is why I exist.” You must certainly teach this. Then the husband looks and says, “Since she believed in Jesus, she has changed—she’s become so at peace,” and already the door of his heart begins to open. In some cases, it’s the opposite: “She used to listen to me well, but after going to church I’m on the back burner?”—and he gets offended. So either way there are pitfalls. We must explain this. Pray that this power (the 7 journeys) will appear.

3. Samaria—“Religion”

1) Superstition
Superstition—most “religion” is superstition.
2) Blind faith
Blind faith—bowing without thought; blind faith.
3) Self
And some trust themselves—self; it is absurd. They say they themselves become a buddha; they say they themselves become God. That content originally came from Satan: “You will be like God; you yourself are a god.” We must let them know these things.

4. The ends of the earth—“My problem”
The most important is this. Wounds. How can a new believer “go to Rome”?

1) Wounds
The wounds they carry are their ends of the earth.
2) Spiritual problems
And there are many spiritual problems. Leaving this alone and “going to world missions”—it won’t help much. This is the ends of the earth.
3) Reality
More important: reality is too difficult. Know that this is entirely your “ends of the earth.” There is no need to be shaken at all. People may persecute you—often husbands do—because the wife starts doing what she never did before, so he persecutes. Your “times” no longer match. Before, if he went somewhere, you went together; now on Sunday you disappear to go to church, and church has fixed times you must keep. “She doesn’t take care of anything and just disappears. She’s become a different person—has she gone crazy?” Then he goes looking for problems in the church. “You heard, right?” He never studied theology in his life, and suddenly he’s saying, “They say ‘Darakbang’ is heresy—why do you go there?” Suddenly his “faith” gets strong—though he doesn’t even attend church. But all the while, he is watching. You know what I mean? He is watching. He starts to see the person changing. Men do that, and then, without another word, they follow along and sit. Then the gospel goes in. “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you and your household will be saved!”

▣ Conclusion: Past (300%)—Platform
Even here there is a conclusion we must always draw. My past —this also must be made into 300% . That is when things truly begin. In my past there were many difficulties. These things—all of them—must become platforms. Do not merely make a platform. Make it 300%. I confess honestly: I received all my answers to prayer here. Answers for a lifetime. The three biggest things in my childhood—poverty, illness, inability—especially this “inability” was what? I could not evangelize. Our church would not be revived. Day by day it shrank. New people kept coming, but the number of members dwindled. That is where my heart changed: “I must overturn this. I must become the witness to this!”

1. Answers for a lifetime
It turns into answers for a lifetime. And how did God work? Up until now answers keep coming. I do not pay attention to money. I have no greed, and in that sense I am that rich. Right? If a person who draws only one million won a month lives happily, that person is rich. So answers for a lifetime come. And without my even knowing, God began to give me answers like, “How do I keep my health?” My life changed to the point that on Sunday I seat doctors and lecture them. The doctors take notes. This is how much God has blessed. It comes like this. New family members must not be ignorant of this. Do not just run blindly. Make it a 300% platform.

2. Witness
And then you naturally become a witness to this. God has set you as a witness!

3. Watchman (Isaiah 62:6–12)
Why must you surely do this prayer (the 7 journeys) every day? Because it is more than merely being a witness. That time is the watchman. We must teach up to this point. Isaiah 62:6–12—The Lord has set you as a watchman. This is the time you watch over the world spiritually. That is why priests wore garments engraved with the names of the twelve tribes. “24 of prayer” emerges.
For me, 24 is easy—because my position requires me to prepare so many messages that I must always be in prayer; otherwise I cannot do it. In your position, you would likely do it as well. In my position, that is how it is. It is a blessing. Even without great faith, you will end up doing it—because you must. For me that is a tremendous blessing. At first, when preparing, I exerted great effort. Now I enjoy it in prayer. Once, coming back on a plane, I had to deliver the next week’s message. I had written it all on paper—this much—and gave it to a staff member. That fellow left it on the plane. How absurd is that? We contacted them: gone. They probably threw it away as trash. He had to tell me, right? “Pastor, I left the bundle of manuscript you gave me on the plane”—how hard that must be to say. He came with the face of a dying man. “We are in big trouble.” I was startled: “What is it?” “I left the manuscript you gave me on the plane.” I answered simply, “It’s okay. God must have a reason for you to write it anew.” I prayed and wrote again. What came out was far better than the first. So—God has a plan. Watchman —you must keep this in mind. “Give Him no rest day and night”—which also means, “The LORD does not rest day or night.” So—watchman. Once, Pastor Lee Byeong-mu gave me a tremendous message. While leading the service he said, “The devil never sleeps!” Wow—amazing. The devil never sleeps. He touches you 24 .

So—watchman. Then it will be done. You too, just do the watchman’s prayer. “How do we pray?” I will address that in the final lecture.
We will take about a 10-minute break.

7 Bartizans the New Believer Must Have

Prayer Journal: November 4, 2025
05. Nov. 2024 237 New Believers & Field Ministers’ Training
Scripture Reading: 2 Corinthians 10:4-5


First of all, what is most important for a new family? They may have various personal circumstances, but the most important thing for a new family is to change their imprint. Nothing is more important than this. The same goes for you—your imprint must change. What is imprinted takes root, and as much as it takes root, destiny changes and it becomes your nature.

▣ Introduction – therefore, for a new family there are three things that must be confirmed.

1. Satan’s bartizan
Because there most certainly is this unseen bartizan of Satan. If you don’t teach this, it’s absolutely not okay. You, too, don’t know and keep worrying. If hardship came to you, a blessing has come. Why? Because the remaining hardships are not needed. I told the North Korean defectors today: “Because you suffered and crossed over, now the suffering is over. There’s a saying that if you’re cursed a lot, you live long,” right? What does that mean? You’ve already received all the curses. What people throw at you is a curse—so it’s over. This is what Jesus said: prayer done to be seen by people will have no answer now—why? Because people saw it; that is your answer. Right? If I served to be seen by people, there is no blessing—why? Because people saw it. Right? That’s the answer, because that was the purpose. This bartizan of Satan desires the ruin of many new families. God desires to bless. You must change the thinking of the new family.

(1) Me (12 strategies) – Satan used what is called “me” and employed 12 strategies. We are not “me.” It is God with us—that’s it. From now on it’s not “for me,” but “for God.” You must change this. If you don’t, one day when something strange comes, you will collapse. Remember this.

(2) John 8:44 – “You are of your father the devil.” You must make them remember that this is where it all came from and that people end up doing what he tells them.

(3) John 16:11–14 – This Satan appears to be greatly powerful, reigning like a king. Jesus Himself explained this.

(4) 2 Corinthians 4:4–5 – The “god of this world” who seems to rule the world entirely; when people face trouble, they go fortune-telling and such. They feel they have nowhere else to go.

(5) 2 Corinthians 10:4–5 – To utterly destroy, he didn’t only build a bartizan but built a fortress. We have been saved out of this. Therefore, with this we must build a new bartizan. We must build it. This is what must be taught.

2. People’s words
And what else? You must be sure to tell them this: take people’s words only as reference; they never truly help. If you don’t teach this to a new family, it’s a big problem. If you live your walk of faith listening to people’s words, you’re in trouble. You must hear God’s Word. People’s words are almost right yet wrong. Why? You must teach this.

(1) Jewish Christianity/Matthew 12:26–30/Matthew 12:43–45 – Jewish Christianity, the Pharisees—churches are still filled with this even today. Right? They even use the same vocabulary as the Pharisees. How can a new family know this? So they end up imitating it. Then what happens? Jesus spoke directly to the Jews: “Satan has built a bartizan in your house—within you.” Driven by that demon, things get harder day by day.

(2) Peter’s team/Galatians 2:11–20 – Peter’s team that limits the power of the gospel—tell them about this. Galatians 2:11–20. Therefore, don’t listen to people’s words. Listen to God’s Word. Then answers quickly come to a new family. Works arise. Healing begins, and the problem is not the new believer but the old believer. Right?

(3) The Roman church/John 16:11–14 – The Roman church that has become completely secularized. Why mention these three? Because they still exist today. They still exercise church power like worldly kings.

3. Worldly believers
And you must surely inform a new believer of this: the majority are fleshly believers—money, position, these things. Pastors, too, must not pay too much attention to money and such. Someone once tried to talk money with me—let’s wait and see. Let’s dig into that. I’m not someone who pays attention to such things. There are many fleshly believers.

(1) Spiritual state (Tower of Babel team) – What do you think their spiritual state is like? So even though they look like they’re working hard in church, there are those who say, “We… we…” That’s the Tower of Babel team. Isn’t that the very phrase the Babel team used? “Let us… let us make a name for ourselves.” Many such believers exist. Those believers, when they clash with the pastor, they say to the pastor, “We…!” and oppose him. If a new family meets such a believer, will they remain? I’m probably not wrong here.

(2) Spiritual beings – They know nothing about spiritual beings. So they think, “Having money is better; the Holy Spirit has no value.” Right? “If I have money, I can buy bread. With the Holy Spirit I can’t buy bread.” That’s a fleshly believer. Right?
(3) Spiritual problems – Therefore, their spiritual problems are not resolved.

You must warn them. A new family must be led to receive answers.
So, if a new family meets you and in a short time changes to the point of bringing others through evangelism, you taught them properly. Right? Two young women from the Samhwa dorm came—I called them every Sunday and proclaimed the gospel, though I had no time. These girls raised hundreds of disciples. Not merely “members,” but disciples. I didn’t do it; they did. In the Philippines I met a lady—she was a disciple from that time. I didn’t remember her, so she must not have been a disciple who was right beside me (I would remember those). She was teaching children there and running a mission home—that’s the start of church revival. Church members receive grace themselves, then evangelize others; that person then evangelizes others—this is how it goes. You must do this for a new family. Absolutely. You must change this bartizan.

▣ Main – then what is the very first part we must do?

1. Healing of the soul – “24 bartizan”
The very first thing for a new family is healing of the soul. The answer for healing of the soul is already in the seven bartizans; the way is Christ. For this person, the most important answer is: build the bartizan of 24 prayer. This is the method.

1) Morning – the time to save me
The morning time is the time to save me. Make them take it. The morning time is the time to save me.
(1) Spirit – First, save my spirit and brain—above all, the spirit.
(2) Brain – You must revive the brain. Otherwise, serious problems will come with age.
(3) Body – And save the body. For the elderly: as time goes by, say, “My strength keeps increasing”—let this be your standard. As time goes by, my strength must spring up. Morning time…

2) Day – the time to save people
The day time is the time to save people. Wherever you go, you must save people. This is very important. Those who kill people (with words and actions) and those who save people have different futures. There are those who are remembered forever. Right? When that new family collapses, the one who helps becomes unforgettable. Therefore, as much as possible, seek out those in difficulty. And you must see clearly whether the new family has hardships or not. They never forget it. That is not the time to teach “We…” but “Christ!”

3) Night – the time to obtain answers
At night, it’s neither about me nor about people. It is truly the time to obtain answers from God. This must be taught as “24.” It’s not nonstop praying 24 hours. In the morning, truly the prayer that saves me; in the day, the prayer that saves people; at night, the prayer that receives the answers God gives. You must teach this. How should they do it? They may ask this as well, but once they start, God will teach them.

2. Spiritual power – “25 concentration”
Second: first cultivate spiritual power. Cultivating spiritual power first is called “25 concentration.” This is very important. What is 25 concentration? It doesn’t matter whether in the morning, day, or night in a day, but in my view the morning is best.

1) The Triune God – spirit
The Triune God works as Spirit. Right? This is prayer concentrating on Him.
2) The throne
That the blessing of the throne may come upon me—this is the time the blessing of the throne rests. You must concentrate on this in prayer. I concentrate with breathing—it helps this way and that; health comes; and you can go very deep. Try it. He promised to give power.
3) Past/Present/Future
He has given us power to solve past, present, and future problems.
4) Five powers
From then, the five powers arise. The five powers…
5) Ephesians 2:2
At last comes the power to overcome the ruler of the kingdom of the air in Ephesians 2:2.
6) CVDIP
Pray that the power to see the future—CVDIP—will rest on you, since He said to go to the ends of the earth.
7) Three courtyards
Then what next? What blessing must my work, the church, and my life receive? The three courtyards—you must build this blessing.

If you concentrate on these (the seven bartizans) just once a day, what will happen? If once a day you let out a deep sigh, what will happen? If once a day you take a shock, what will happen? If once a day you enter into anxiety, what will happen? Then you will die—strangely at that. Go deep once a day. This is called 25. You must teach this. You must also do it. So taste an answer once. When I prepare a message, I enter deep prayer; then surely God gives the Word—John 16:13—He will make you remember…

3. The bartizan of life – “eternity (300%)”
Third: now finally build the bartizan of life. You must inform the new family of this. This is called “eternity.” We have the timetable of 24/25/eternity. 24 is with me; 25 is what Jesus explained; and this eternal timetable belongs to God. So from now, teach three things. From now, receive the blessing of 300%. Is this possible?

1) Guidance of the Holy Spirit → 100% regarding me
If you only do this, the guidance of the Holy Spirit will come out; therefore you will receive 100% blessing regarding yourself. Right? God’s guidance over you is not 99%—it’s 100%. “I have many hardships”—that means many blessings. Right?

2) Working of the Holy Spirit → 100% in the field
You will go to the field. There, the working of the Holy Spirit arises. This is 100% in the field—because it takes place unseen. You must teach this.
If that new family truly believes, the work begins. During worship you do not chase experiences first—you must have assurance, and you must hold the message you must be assured of. Right? If anything must be experienced, that’s it. Joseph had assurance, didn’t he? To Joshua He said, “Be strong and courageous; do not be afraid”—which means things that cause fear will come. Right? “Do not be afraid, for I am with you”—and He spoke what was certain: “As I was with Moses.” You saw him following Moses. And it’s not “I will give you the land of Canaan,” but “I have given it”—that’s assurance. If, during worship, you clearly receive something—answers will come. Therefore, “believe that you have received what you asked for.” You must explain this. Long ago I understood it this way: “How can I say I’ve received when I haven’t?” “Isn’t that fraud? I didn’t receive…” I once thought some revivalist was a fraud: he prayed and said, “You’re healed; go home now.” “Is he scamming?” One day it dawned on me—Joseph believed and went, and all answers came. Right? Joshua believed, and answers came everywhere he went. Then “believe that you have received.” Then I finally said, “Oh, amen!” The whole Bible is structured that way. Back then I thought that revivalist was a conman—he prayed and, though the person looked normal, said, “Go home; you’re healed.”

3) Fruit of the Holy Spirit → 100% in a sustaining system
It’s 100% in a sustaining system. This is called “the fruit of the Holy Spirit.” You must surely teach this.

▣ Conclusion: God’s bartizan – the watchman
Therefore, if you keep building this bartizan—isn’t this God’s bartizan?—if you build it, you become a watchman. Truly, from now on you are a watchman. Say it plainly.

1. Life (platform) – Then many people will come to me to gain life.
2. Light (watchtower) – Then, because I have the light of Christ, those in darkness will come.
3. Communication (antenna) – I will see another realm I did not know before—the realm that communicates with God and with the throne.
This (life) is called a platform. This (light), because we must shine the light, is called a watchtower. This (communication) is called an antenna.

Applying the seven bartizans (imprint) – Then, when drawing the conclusion, how can we explain these seven bartizans so they imprint well? Because we must imprint them.

1. The Triune God (not visible to the eye)
When you go to a hospital and take an image, your soul does not appear in the image. When you take a photo, your mind does not appear in the photo. Why? Because it’s too important. If my hand hurts a bit, that’s okay; but if the mind is gone, that’s not okay. Right? If I have a slight problem somewhere, it’s manageable; but if the soul departs, you die. In the same way, the Triune God works in us invisibly. Satan also, invisibly, drags you into darkness: “You can’t.” God says, “You can.” Satan says, “You must be ruined.” God says, “You must be blessed.” Right? Satan says, “You’re too ignorant to make it.” God says, “I will be with you.” It’s completely different. All of this most important reality is unseen—this must be taught.

2. The throne (answer)
Then where and by what does true prayer-answer come? This is the answer. Jesus Himself explained the things of the kingdom of God. Jesus Himself said to seek first His kingdom and His righteousness. Jesus called this “prayer.” The one who realized this was Paul. Thus in Tyrannus he boldly explained about the kingdom of God for three months—you must tell them this.

3. Past/Present/Future (destiny)
What do past/present/future mean? A new family may not understand well. Destiny has changed. Right? Destiny has been changed—truly. Destiny changes.

4. Five powers (DNA)
From then, the five powers arise—your spiritual DNA is changed. Our physical DNA doesn’t need to change; the spiritual DNA has changed. The five powers—believe this. You must build the bartizan—God’s bartizan. You must explain this.

5. Ephesians 2:2 (authority)
God has also given you something special—authority. Right? “To all who received Him, who believed in His name, He gave the authority to become children of God.” Jesus spoke this directly: “In My name drive out demons.” You don’t have to go there and kill a sheep. “In My name.” You don’t have to go there and slaughter an ox. “In My name.” “Lay hands on the sick, and they will recover.” He said authority has been given to you. “In the name of Jesus Christ.” The secret by which Paul carried out world evangelization—Philippians 3:1–21—“the name by which all things are brought into submission.” Therefore, while prayer is prayer to God, there is also prayer in which you exercise your authority. This is important.

6. CVDIP (future)
If you truly pray, God will surely make you know the future—this is CVDIP.

7. Three courtyards (posterity)
What is even more important? If you pray, the blessing to save the church, save the world, and save the posterity will come—this is the three courtyards. Within the seven bartizans this is the ends of the earth.

Prayer system – Therefore, if you lead a new family so that they can really pray, one day this conclusion will come—you must tell them this: one day, prayer begins to happen by itself. That’s the end point. Until then, do it. One day, if you don’t pray, it feels strange. In a bad term that’s “addiction,” but in a good term it’s a “system.” This is the conclusion a new family must know.

If you first enjoy it yourself, it’s easy to tell others. If I don’t enjoy it but try to tell it, it’s truly hard. “What I have I give you”—you shouldn’t say, “I don’t have it, but…” You must say, “Jesus is the Christ!” Not, “I heard that Jesus is the Christ”—don’t speak with “I-heard-it” rumors. Strange people have lots of “I-heard-it” talk. Not rumor talk. “Jesus is the Christ!” You must make this known. I will pray.

Prayer. We thank You, God. Bless us to save our new families so that they, in turn, may save others. Let it be manifested with the power to save the posterity of all nations. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

The Path to 300% Success

Prayer Journal: November 3, 2025
02. Feb. 2025 Immanuel Church Sunday Worship 2nd Service
Scripture Reading: Genesis 41:37-45


We thank You, God, for allowing us to offer our gifts by faith. Let us now restore the economy of light that can overcome the economy of darkness. Let us restore the Remnant economy that will save the future. Let us restore the missions economy that will save the world.

We are also thankful that people overseas are listening to the message. In fact, it is quite difficult overseas. How can we save the field? And among our Remnants, there are many who have no background or who face hardships. Today, you must make a resolution. How will you save your family line? Also, there are many churches that are listening to the same message as we are. What covenant must each of you hold as you go forth? Joseph was forsaken even by his family. And even when he was in Potiphar’s house where many blessings appeared, he was still forsaken there. The chief cupbearer, too, though he had received grace, abandoned Joseph. Then one day, God’s timetable came. As you know, the king had a nightmare—a vivid, recurring nightmare. This was no ordinary dream; there was something about it, yet it could not be interpreted. There were many magicians and wise men in the palace, but there was no one who could help the king in this difficult situation. So the king was deeply troubled and angry. At that moment, the chief cupbearer remembered Joseph and spoke to the king: “There is someone who can interpret Your Majesty’s dream.” The king, so shocked and desperate, immediately asked, “Where is he?” The cupbearer said, “He is in prison.” So the king gave a special command, and that very day Joseph was released from prison and stood before the king. It sounds like a dramatic story, but it is true. As you know, Joseph interpreted the king’s dream and became the governor of Egypt. But we must not see it merely that way. It is correct, but if you see it that way, you will not receive the answer. Joseph was continually forsaken.

“300% Success” He held onto something that never wavered—this (300% success). You must surely hold onto this. Why? Because it has been prepared. Then what exactly does “300%” mean?

▣ Introduction

1. Preparation God has already given this to you—how then should you prepare? It is not difficult.
1) Myself, the field, the future (start) I said this briefly to the elders: in whatever situation you find yourself, what is the one thing you must surely do? If you find that one thing, that is the answer in times of crisis. Whether a crisis comes or not, when you go to the field, what is the one thing absolutely needed there? We cannot do many things. What is absolutely needed for the future? If you prepare this, 300% begins. This is the start. Joseph was distressed; there was only suffering. It was bad enough that his brothers tried to kill him—how could it get worse, being thrown into prison? Joseph was a man of prayer. He discovered it—why he was there, he discovered the field, and he discovered the future. This is the beginning of 300%.

2) Work When you start this prayer, 300% will come into your work. From now on, it begins. Because you are enjoying this prayer.
(1) Talent – Only Your talent must change into “only.” It doesn’t matter what it is. Even if I go to work as a cleaner, the answer of “only” will come. That is 100%. It surely exists. It’s the same thing. What is the one thing I must surely do? Just find that. “What is God’s plan for me?” Truly ask this question. That question itself is a blessing and turns into an answer. If you have difficulties, this week ask questions. Continue praying and asking until you receive an answer—or until the prayer settles peacefully within you. After that, it will come.
(2) Field – Uniqueness But now, when you go into the field, it goes beyond talent—uniqueness comes out. Others see it and recognize it: “The LORD blesses you in all things.” They know it. That is uniqueness. If our Remnants endure just a little longer, even unbelievers will see it: “God is blessing you.” That is uniqueness. This came to Joseph. But it didn’t end there.
(3) Future – Re-creation Now the future becomes visible. That is re-creation. This is 300%. This is what you take with you.

3) Prayer Now you must enjoy this—what is prayer 300%? There is prayer 300%.
(1) Seven bartizans To enjoy the seven bartizans that God has given is prayer 300%. It has been perfectly prepared. Jesus explained it—He explained it for forty days with the power of the Triune God and the power of the throne.
(2) Seven journeys And with this power, “Go to Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” He spoke of the journey.
(3) Seven guideposts In every place, set up guideposts. This is 300%. Prayer 300%. Pray in this exact way.

4) Evangelism – Missions And now, surely this must take place wherever you go—evangelism and missions. It must take place. This, too, is not difficult.
(1) Acts 13:1–4 In truth, it may sound strange, but do not start by trying to evangelize; start with this. Be completely led by the Holy Spirit. Completely receive power. Completely enjoy it. Do not lose hold of this—wherever you are. Try it even in darkness.
(2) Acts 13:5–12 Then surely the darkness will crumble. Right? This is evangelism and missions.
(3) Acts 13:12 Then the governor will surely receive grace, and the future system will be established. This is 300%.

5) Health – Nephilim And the most important point: the whole world is diseased. You must also restore your health. What is the key? In Acts 13, 16, and 19, it is completely breaking the Nephilim. Wherever you go, this answer will come. This is the 300% preparation. In fact, Joseph had completed all of this preparation.

2. Enjoyment The second point: what is enjoying 300%? This is it.

1) Platform When you enjoy the blessing of the seven bartizans, then in your work and studies a platform is formed where people must come. This is enjoyment. Do not be deceived—wait. “Wait for what the Lord has promised.” In restaurants, some are full of people, others are empty. Whose fault is that? It’s simple. You go to one restaurant because they invite you in, but the food tastes awful. You decide, “I’ll never come back.” But another place tastes amazing—what happens? Who comes to mind? When something is good, someone comes to mind. You think of those you often eat with—friends, coworkers.

2) Watchtower As you go along the seven journeys, a watchtower arises that shines the light to save others. This is a blessing you must always enjoy.

3) Antenna Finally, this is made. This is 300% enjoyment.

3. Reason Why must your children receive the 300% answer? The reason is found in the scene that appears to Joseph in today’s passage. Why?

1) King He stood before the king—beyond imagination. Joseph did not ask for this. True prayer is like this. Standing before the king. Why did he stand before the king? He was set there to interpret the dream, but that’s not all.

2) 237 He was set before the 237. Egypt had the 237.

3) 5000 Finally, today he was appointed as governor. He was set before the 5,000 tribes. This is the reason.

▣ Main message

Then, with this blessing, he went before the king. Remnants, young adults, do not be deceived—start again. You go forth with this (Introduction). Without fail. No matter how much you may seem to have failed now, if you prepare this, you will succeed. What is success? It means world evangelization. If you do not prepare this, you will end up working errands for unbelievers. That is certain. Even if you graduate top of Harvard, without this answer you will end up working errands for unbelievers—accurately speaking, errands for the world. To be even more precise: errands for Satan. In my neighborhood there was a respectable woman who raised her child alone because her husband had died. She raised him well; he studied hard and became a doctor, just as she had prayed. We thought he would do well—he was bright, diligent, and faithful. But once he became a doctor and married a fine woman, he completely changed. He couldn’t even live a life of faith anymore. It’s not that his wife’s family was bad, but he was completely drawn into that side. His mother had suffered deeply raising him, but that wasn’t the problem. It wasn’t wrong to be good to his wife’s family. But he lacked this (Introduction) preparation entirely. He immediately became a servant of the world—in the end, a servant of Satan. It can’t be helped, right? We tell the Remnants, “Study, while praying—not to follow the world, but to lead the world.” That’s why we study. “Earn money”—not to live well, but to save others. It’s different. Do not lose hold of the 300%. In one sense, I’m not teaching you—I’m sharing my own faith testimony. Prepare for 300%. God has prepared it—past, present, and future. Do not lose hold of this. Why do those elite people who study so well end up dying as servants of the world? We must carry out world evangelization.

1. Fulfillment of the covenant First: what is this work? It is the fulfillment of the covenant. The covenant is bound to be fulfilled.
1) Genesis 37:1–11 It was not Joseph’s dream—it was the covenantal dream he received. It was fulfilled exactly.
2) Genesis 39:1–6 It doesn’t matter if hardships come. When he went as a slave, God’s work took place in that house.
3) Genesis 39:11–24 Though falsely accused and imprisoned, it was fine. Even in prison, God’s work arose.
4) Genesis 40:1–23 Though forsaken by the cupbearer, God’s work arose there too.
5) Genesis 41:38 Finally, today he stood before the king. The doors for world missions were completely opened. That is it. Until then God had worked, but now the door for world missions officially opened. That is true success. Barely getting by, eating and living—that is not success. “Now we can live peacefully”—that is not success. The door for world evangelization has been completely opened. Covenant fulfillment—believe this. Don’t listen to my words; see the flow of God’s Word.

2. The covenant field Second: the covenant field. You must know well the field where the covenant is fulfilled.
1) Slave Where? In Potiphar’s house—while a slave. God’s work arose then. We need not look for anything else. As said today—it is “no time.” There’s no need to look at time, if you are truly God’s child. Right? We are truly “no way.” There’s no need for roads—they are already open. You are in the path. “Nobody”—you need no help. God’s work arose while he was a slave.
2) Wife Potiphar’s wife, having failed to tempt him, threw him into prison.
3) Cupbearer In prison, he met the cupbearer, and there the covenant began to be fulfilled.
4) Meeting Finally, he met the king, and the king was completely moved by the covenant. That’s it. It was not Joseph’s words that moved him—it was the Word of God that moved him. From the beginning Joseph said, “I cannot interpret it, but God will make it known.” A very important statement.
5) Governor There he was immediately appointed governor. The covenant field.

3. The covenant method Then how was this covenant fulfilled? We must know this—the covenant method. When you prepare 300%, it comes—how does it come? As we saw earlier—we already know.
1) Only You must find it—Only. If this alone comes out, that’s enough. When your child receives an answer and it is “Only,” no one else can do it. That’s it.
2) Uniqueness Uniqueness—it is absolutely not the same term. This is the answer being received now.
3) Re-creation Re-creation—because he knew what the king did not, it was re-creation. God gives this wisdom.

The reason God called you is not to serve the world, but to save the world. Remnants, when difficulties come, do not be shaken. It’s okay. Do not listen to people’s words or Satan’s words. Listen to God’s Word and rise. You are not to bow to the world but to lead it. Remember this. Those who are sick—do not be discouraged. “Whether I live or die, I entrust it to God. Grant me the filling of the Holy Spirit.” Right? Many people have truly experienced works like this. When the work arises, you become a witness. God has many ways to call us home—He could take us while we sleep—so why does He allow sickness? So that we may experience.

Looking at Joseph, if we miss the important flow of God, we cannot receive the answer. We must receive it. If there are Remnants here with difficult family backgrounds, make a resolution: “I will receive the 300% grace that God gives and bring restoration. I will even save my company.” Pray like that. “When a Christian comes, things come alive.” That’s how it should be.

▣ Conclusion Let us conclude.
1. Boldness and humility On your journey, such hardships may come. Be bold and humble. Be bold—do not fear—but be humble. You will overcome. Because you go as one who gives answers and brings life.
2. Now (the synagogue) Then what time is it now? What time? You must know what kind of time this is—this time of worship, this time of prayer. The Bible shows it in many places, but today I hold onto one thing: Paul, holding this covenant, went to the synagogue toward the future generation. Now. I held onto this as my answer. For your children, this is the time to receive grace from God.
3. Helping angels, messengers, and heavenly army Then surely at this time, what happens? This is the mystery. As the work of God’s kingdom is fulfilled, unseen to anyone, God sends helping angels. The Bible says so. He sends messengers. And in urgent times, He sends the heavenly army. To Elisha, He sent the heavenly army. It is certain—the spiritual world. Seeing this, you sit here praying, and the work of the kingdom of God is being accomplished. You must believe this.

Make a resolution: “I will change my family line.” You must. Those hearing the message in the field now through our church, resolve, “I will receive the answer and revive the church.” That’s right. Those listening overseas—do not just listen. Because this preparation is already made, prepare 300% and restore your church. Our Remnants scattered in various places—those are regional churches. Revive them there. May there be much grace this week, in the name of Jesus Christ. Let us pray.

Prayer. We give glory to God. May the kingdom of God be fulfilled. Though we are praying here, may the work of the kingdom of God take place in our fields. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

The Chief Cupbearer Who Forgot Joseph

Prayer Journal: November 1, 2025
02. Feb. 2025 Immanuel Church Sunday Worship 1st Service
Scripture Reading: Genesis 40:21-23


▣ Introduction
1. The difficulties of life, betrayal—do not fall into temptation. By nature, people have calculations about the future, and that is why. Joseph encountered the greatest hardship of his life. Though he had done no wrong, he was put in prison. There is one thing that is the hardest part of prison: there is absolutely no freedom. If you deprive a person of freedom, they cannot live. All kinds of illnesses come. That is why, in the past when Black people had no freedom, they said, “Give me liberty or give me death.” He did not even know when he might get out. Because it was essentially an incident that happened in a great house, he was suffering to the degree that it seemed almost like a life sentence.

A condemned criminal came in there. If you do wrong against the king, it is the death penalty. The official in charge of the king’s food and wine, the cupbearer—because of some wrongdoing—was put into that prison. This man was to die. In those days, unlike now, once a verdict came from the palace, they would execute immediately. So for that man it was an extreme hardship. There he met Joseph. Joseph must have shared various testimonies. Things happened in such a way that even in the prison Joseph could be trusted. In that dramatic situation, Joseph interpreted the dream that the chief official, the cupbearer, had dreamed. “You will surely live and be released. You will clear your name and go out alive.”

Such a thing happened. The official gained immense strength. Moving house outside? This was far beyond that; when someone says, “You will not die in prison, you will be released,” that is an enormous thing. When it was decided that he would be released, he returned to the house of the official—that is, he returned to the palace. At that time Joseph made a private request. We thought Joseph was always receiving grace and always praying, but Joseph made a private request. It was something Joseph normally would not do, but he asked a favor—because it was hard. Though he overcame by prayer and received many answers, it was hard. This man was someone powerful, returning to the palace. Joseph asked him for a favor: “When you go out, please remember me.” In simple terms, “Please get me out.” Since he would enter the palace. But today’s Scripture says, “The chief official forgot Joseph.” He forgot him.

In the course of our lives, there are times when we face something like that—being betrayed. Humanly speaking, this official betrayed greatly. He received such blessing in such hardship, yet he forgot Joseph. No matter how much Joseph waited, there was no word. He had asked so earnestly and had helped him, yet the official forgot. At such times we may develop resentment. When you are betrayed by people, you become tempted and shaken. Or thoughts of “I must take revenge” arise. Some, in fact, commit murder or crimes, and such things occur.

At such times, you must not fall into temptation. Human nature is like that. Having received such grace from Joseph, he should have repaid it, but he forgot. As you know, in the old days the elders would say this: if you help an animal, it repays grace; if you help a person, they repay with spite. Why is that? If you help an animal, the animal shows some sign of gratitude. But when you help a human, later they become your adversary. Why? The difference is simple. Animals have no calculations about the future. People do. Thinking it over, “Now I am going back to the palace; what benefit is there in associating with that Hebrew, that powerless beggar-like man?” Perhaps such thinking arose. Whether he even thought about it, no one knows. That is human nature. So it was not a situation in which he would say, “I must strain myself to pull Joseph out.” Even though he knew Joseph was in great suffering, he forgot him. It is a single incident.

2. The judgment you make at such a time changes into a 100-year, 1000-year, eternal answer. This is a time schedule in which we must learn many things. The judgment you make at such a time may turn into a 100-year answer. Sometimes it becomes a thousand-year, eternal answer.

3. God made him forget—when Joseph reached thirty, an age at which he could become prime minister, the king summoned him. The important point here today is this: it was not merely that the man forgot; God made him forget. This is important. God made him forget. How could that man forget Joseph? He should have thought it over, and when an opportunity came before the king, he should have spoken—but he forgot. Joseph, as you know, could not have succeeded if he had been released from prison at that age. As we will confirm in the second service today, when Joseph was exactly thirty years old—by that time, such years had passed—Joseph was still in prison. He did not know when he would come out. At that time the king dreamed a dream. When the dream could not be interpreted, he brought great difficulty to the scholars and the people. When a person is pressed, he remembers. Because he was so pressed, only then did he remember Joseph. The king summoned Joseph. As we will confirm in the second service, when the king summoned him, Joseph shaved for the first time, changed his clothes, and went before the king. He was thirty years old then. In Egypt, senior civil officials had to be thirty years old or older, and legally the prime minister had to be thirty or older.

▣ Main Message: What the Children of God Who Will Do World Evangelization Must See

We know the content, but what must we see here? This is important. What kind of answer must you and I receive? There are ordinary people, believers, those with a calling—there are many kinds, are there not? Some people live simply to make a good living. Some live to succeed in worldly terms. But for you and me, is it not world evangelization? If Joseph was indeed a person to do world evangelization, then it had to be this way. Today we must realize something important.
1. Eyes to see time (No-time). Time is short, and we must receive answers; first, the eyes to see time. What do people do? They wait for an opportunity. This is what generally happens. It is not wrong; people wait for time. “We must endure; what else can we do?” This is what normal people say. But Joseph was different. Here arises the first answer that you and I must grasp. We do not wait for a timetable. What is it? The covenant we must hold today is No-time. For Joseph, it was No-time. What does that mean?

1) Now is the best time; the field where I am is the best mission field; that incident is God’s answer. For you, people of God, now is the best time. The field is the best mission field. You must surely keep this in mind. The official’s betrayal of Joseph is an answer—because God has an important plan. All of you who must do world evangelization must hold to this. We do not hunt for opportunities. That is why problems keep coming. We, within God’s timetable, have today as the best—No-time; there is no time for us in that sense.

2) Bartizan—the real thing is what the Triune God gives and what works by the power of the throne. Why? There Jesus spoke of the bartizan. What the Triune God gives to you is the real thing. What works by the power of the throne—that is the real thing. Joseph must do world evangelization now. It is not, “How shall I get my food?” nor “How shall I rise in status?” “Though I have no power, as a child of God, this place is the best mission field; that official who betrayed me is God’s answer.” There he enjoyed it as is. Make today the best answer. That is God’s truly important plan. Joseph was inside the prison yet, there, he discovered all of God’s works.

3) Not hunting for chances, but becoming the main figure who produces the blessing of the throne in the present field. Therefore we are not like worldly people who wait for opportunities and hunt for chances. It is not that such things are unnecessary, but that is not us. You are the main figures who, even in prison, in the present field, produce the blessing of the throne. Our Remnants must truly have this faith.

I have no special technique. I have not researched something special. I feel sorry to my pastor friends, but a famous university in America once said they would conduct comprehensive research on me and grant me a doctorate. The school analyzed it: “This is not just content. We must retain this person at our school and award a degree.” I felt sorry to the person who introduced me, but though I had said okay at first, when the time came I said “No.” Why? Because I did not need it. I do not think believers come to hear God’s Word because I have earned some degree. But when we started RU, I asked for it—because it needed to remain on record. You must remember this.

When I began and went forth, my family situation was extremely difficult. Truly. When I understood the gospel, I held a covenant: “This has nothing to do with me. That is my parents’ situation; it does not concern me. Here I will craft God’s true masterpiece.” That answer has now come—three things: poverty, disease, incompetence—destroyed all three. You must never depend on people, thinking, “Who will help me?” No. When God’s true answer comes, no one can block it. I cannot tell everything. I saw this in the Word. So I went to Yeongdo; the church was so small. The answer I received then was this: God was telling me, “Do not remain in a room; proclaim God’s Word to all of Yeongdo and Busan.” Is that not right? Today is the best day. When I met you, what covenant did I hold? To create the three courtyards throughout the whole world so that people would hear God’s Word. You must not lose this. The place where you are is a mission field. The location where you are is the most blessed place. You must discover this. “Even that incident of betraying me is God’s answer.” It is certain.

  1. Eyes to see incidents (No-way). The second thing to grasp: the eyes to see incidents. We must see time, and we must see incidents.

1) Not seeking a path, but No-way. Many people try to find a way, do they not? Many try to find a way. Never miss this: we are No-way. First, we are No-time. We do not need the time people talk about. Remember this. We are No-way. We do not need the path people insist upon.

2) WIO. What was “the way” for Joseph? “With.” The evidence that God is with me is the way. “Immanuel.” The evidence that God is with us is the way. All things work together to accomplish the answer. “Oneness.” That way is our way.

3) Journey. In this, Jesus explained the journey. I have seen seven great journeys—tremendous. Go the way in which the Triune God works by the power of the throne. That is correct. It is absolutely not a vain statement. Rather, it is the thought “How can there be no way?” that is vain. That is the vain thought—hoping for some stroke of luck. The Bible promises ten platforms; those are our way. The ten unseen, spiritual secrets by which He works and leads us—that is the way. Is that not so? Therefore we proceed in that flow with assurance. Thus all our “today” is the camp of the throne. This is the way. Joseph knew the true timetable and the true way.

  1. Eyes to see the goal (Nobody). Third, how do people commonly think of goals?

1) Not depending on people or seeking people, but Nobody. They keep depending on people and seeking people. Yes, that is what people do. But not us. Nobody. What are we? We wait for God’s absolute plan. We seek that.

※ Make up your mind beforehand: No-time, No-way, Nobody. Therefore I tell the Remnants: “Make up your mind beforehand.” I tell them: “It is No-time. It is No-way. It is Nobody.” If you function at the level of the world, you will live and die like the world. You will not do world evangelization. If you misunderstand my words, you might not comprehend. I cannot say other things just to make you understand if you do not. To help those precious Remnants understand, I cannot lie. Virtually everyone in the world lives with this as the standard (eating, livelihood). Not so for us. The opportunities the world seeks—those are No-time for us; we do not need them. No-way. And what are we? Nobody. That is why God cut everything off from Joseph—so he would truly do it.

2) At that time the Word of God lives and works; the evidence of the Word begins to appear. At that time, the Word God had given Joseph from the very beginning began to live and work. The Word of God that had led him until then began to produce evidence. The timetable surely comes, because the Word is fulfilled.

3) The guidepost. Jesus called this a guidepost: “Go to Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Here I have astonishingly confirmed many answers that are in the Bible. You know Joseph’s timetable. We will look at it in the second service—what he took. What did Joseph take before the king? This is important. People know that he interpreted the dream before the king; everyone knows that. That is not the point. What did he bring? That is, what did Joseph possess? We will confirm that in the second service; today, we confess before God the definite answer now. We are not waiting for the chance people speak of. It is not the path on which people depend on one another and first strive simply to make a good living. What God has prepared is not to depend on people, live appropriately, and die. We are Nobody. You must surely go holding the covenant.

※ My timetable is in God’s hands. I have no timetable. Is that not so? I wear a watch, but I have not “put on time.” My timetable is with God. Today, you must firmly hold this as your covenant. Time is short, but we must go with the answer; therefore seize a definite guidepost. A definite guidepost—through Joseph, God is informing us of the facts. There are situations when you cannot speak—when you cannot say a word to people. For Joseph, this was the greatest guidepost. It sounds like a dream, but it is not. It is the most real.

▣ Conclusion
1. Your workplace is a mission field; your problem is an answer. God has given me several graces so that I might serve you well and do world evangelization. First, I could not share testimonies from my childhood. I was too ashamed to testify, so I did not. But there I seized many of God’s covenants. And in truly living church life, I have seen many churches and believers. I have seen many churches that do not do the gospel movement and do not truly serve God. However excellent they may be—though that is not unimportant—they do not do the gospel movement. So I realized, “Ah… all that is unnecessary.” Why spend an entire lifetime, money, and one’s life on what is unnecessary? You must understand this. It is not that the workplace you go to is unnecessary. That is your mission field. Apart from that, there is no meaning. The problems that come to you and the person who betrayed you—that is the answer. Why? Because there is something else. Because there is God’s true timetable that He gives. This is what I am saying. Because there is the true way that God gives. The person you truly must meet is someone else. You must hold this as your covenant today.

Sadly—and I have said this before—there were two older women than I, seniors to me in faith, who lived the Christian life very well. Both were clean, elegant, and well-looking—popular wherever they went. One of them always said, “I will not live in poverty. My family is somewhat poor. I will live rich.” I understand. It is not a bad statement, but she emphasized it so much. Truly, things happen as you say; if I named her, you would all know. She became the daughter-in-law of the most famous conglomerate in Busan. Truly. But the other senior was not like that. She simply said, “I wish to live the life of faith well and spread the gospel.” That was it. She did not seem to have any great dream. But as time went by—this still pains me—the first senior, after marriage, did not even last two years. In her words, it was hell. Hell. I met her once in America; she had gained so much weight from eating. Meanwhile, the other senior who held to the Word met a man who truly lived the life of faith well; they did the gospel movement, and their children grew up likewise. When we visited them once, what did they bring out? The couple welcomed us in the evening, and they brought out the Bible and hymnal first. “Let us worship,” they said. So—ah—those who hold the important covenant, even if they are not doing something “big,” bring transformation.

2. There is a separate bartizan, journey, and guidepost that you must truly have. Today, through Joseph, you must find what is yours. It does not mean that your present job, work, or study is wrong. Is that not so? There is a separate bartizan, journey, and guidepost that you must truly have. From the day you seize them, the work will begin.

3. Resolution—God’s work that turns weaknesses into blessings, crises into answers, and shameful parts into blessed things. Today, throughout the day as you receive this grace, resolve that your greatest weakness will turn into the greatest blessing. Take the time to resolve that your greatest crisis is the greatest answer—do this, because it is certain. Resolve that God’s work will turn your most shameful part into the most blessed thing. You must do this—because this is the highest calling. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that today will be the day you are healed all day long.

Prayer. We thank You, God. Let this become the time when, like Joseph, we are left alone with You. Let this become the timetable when we find what is important today. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

The Secret of the Evangelist

Prayer Journal: October 31, 2025
01. Feb. 2025 Core Training Service
Scripture Reading: Romans 16:25-27


Today is our University Missions Department special service. The important content will be addressed at our University Missions Department retreat. Today I will limit myself to speaking only about evangelism.

(Elders—teams of five as one unit, young adults—three courtyards, RT—the three-day weekend age, university—planning)
In our church, special, unnoticeable evangelism teams have been formed. This is extremely important. Therefore our church leaders, especially the elders, must open their eyes to the phrase “teams of five as one unit.” This was the field for commissioning missionaries. And for our young adults, the three courtyards—since these are 237, healing, and summit—are very important. When multiethnic people come, young adults are in a better position to guide them a bit. We must help the Remnants become the main figures of the three-day weekend age. I am telling our university teams to plan all of this. You must do it. The early church had this. Because Peter was a bit lacking in such aspects, God raised up Paul. And without this kind of mindset, world missions is impossible. Even just knowing these things brings you answers.

Today, because our important people have come to greet us, I gave a message. A prepared Remnant, Pastor Hwang Seon-gyu and his wife, who are going to Canada, came. Because this relates to you, I gave three messages: “Serve the pastor.” I said, “Since you are going as an associate pastor, serve the senior pastor.” You must serve him after God. “And after you arrive in Canada, wait for God’s absolute plan to be revealed.” You must throw away your own thoughts. Only then will you see. Do not worry about your future. Do not calculate. Only then will you see God’s absolute plan. And I asked for one more thing: “Do 5,000 tribes 24.” If you do that, everything will be done.

Also, Pastor Lee Daha from Jukjeon came today to greet us, so I gave him a message. “What revives church members is the message.” I gave three points. “When church members listen, they must come to know, ‘Ah, this is the gospel.’ You must help them see that.” “When church members listen, they must gain strength and come alive.” And the last thing is this: “You must change the thoughts of the church members.” Everything is God’s blessing, yet they think it is not. If so, they cannot receive that blessing. What if a problem has come? It is a blessing.

Because our nation has been noisy lately, I have been led to continual prayer. While praying, an answer simply came to me. If the president is impeached, it will be a loss for the Democratic Party and a chance to realize something. If impeachment does not happen, it will be a loss for the People Power Party. Then again, it will be a chance to realize something. Our nation will not collapse. There are servants who do world evangelization. Therefore I am certain. Whatever happens, I said I am thankful.

If many people do not understand this third point, they cannot interpret the Bible and cannot understand the seven Remnants. Then they will miss all answers. I told this to Pastor Lee Daha. And I said, “Prepare a vessel that can embrace many people.” If you cannot embrace many people, world evangelization is difficult. I am saying this because it is something our university students must take into account.

(Romans 16:1–27)
You possess this blessing (elders—teams of five as one unit, young adults—three courtyards, RT—the three-day weekend age, university—planning). It is in the Bible. Where in the Bible? It is summarized in Romans 16. It is found here and there, but it is summarized there.
(1 Corinthians 16:14–24)
It is summarized in 1 Corinthians 16.
(Colossians 4:1–18)
It is summarized in Colossians 4:1–18. Some people are repeated. But these people were special evangelism teams. Now we must receive this answer.
So begin gently. In some respects it starts in comfortable meetings. Then the university must keep urging like this: “Elder, please come.” Like this. Elders are busy. Because they do not have it in mind, say, “Please come.” Young adults are a bit busier than you. So you must gently entice them and do it this way. That is planning. And keep calling the Remnants, like this. They all have their own things to do, but separately. In this way, you must keep telling the pastor about such blessings.

A team like this for evangelism planning started a bit in Seoul and now is in a bit of a situation, but it is the most important answer in the Bible. To do this more in earnest, I will give three messages at our university retreat.
Today, while looking at the role of the church, I am saying you should think at least once about the evangelism movement. Why? Because the evangelism currently done in the church does not bring church growth. Therefore you must remember this.

That is why we cannot keep up with the three organizations. The three organizations do evangelism by system. Have you ever heard China telling the three organizations to get out? They do not. The church does not do system-based evangelism. That is why we keep getting driven out. It is frightening. The three organizations penetrate anywhere.

Therefore university students must come to realize this. You are the hope; if you fail to realize it, you will simply grow older and become the same kind of adults again. In the end it is system evangelism, media evangelism, and bartizan evangelism.

▣ Introduction: The Prayer God Gives
Then, what is the most important thing to do this work? The prayer that God gives must begin. This is extremely important.

  1. Old Testament era
    Then concerning the prayer that God gives, let us briefly look at the Old Testament era. God gave Abraham a prayer topic. He kept losing hold of it. So after suffering much, he realized. Therefore we must pray the prayer that God gives. One person realized this from the very beginning: Joseph. Therefore for Joseph, everything was an answer. He suffered greatly, but it was not suffering. It was blessing. This (the prayer God gives) is the answer. First, what is it? Your direction must align with God. Next, the three courtyards—your goal must align with God. Your prayer must align with God. The One who answers is God, so prayer must align with God. Is not God the One who rules our life? If so, I am now speaking of the prayer God gives in the Old Testament era. Moses was given a sure prayer topic in childhood, but he kept doing other things and lost it. At age eighty he realized it. Then the work began. Also, there were two who firmly held the prayer God gave from a very young age: Samuel and David. Therefore works had no choice but to arise. You must remember this. “Not Gilgal, not Jericho, not Bethel—grant me a double portion of Your spirit.” He knew what God gives. This is extremely important.
  2. J-X
    There is prayer that Jesus Christ Himself taught. Three things.

1) The throne
He explained for forty days the blessing of the throne.

2) 300%
The filling of the Holy Spirit—this we call 300%. University students must surely remember this.

3) Only (uniqueness, re-creation)
He explained the method—the easy way to receive. Only. “Only” is the same word as “uniqueness.” The same meaning. “Re-creation.” This is the prayer Jesus taught.

  1. Paul—Acts 19:8
    Paul prayed this properly. In Acts 19:8 it is about the kingdom of God. Paul did three things—three.

1) Multiethnic peoples
Wherever he went, led by the Holy Spirit, he opened the doors to the multiethnic peoples.

2) Healing—Nephilim
He healed the Nephilim, the root of diseases that absolutely cannot be cured. It took place, did it not?

3) The synagogue
He used the synagogue strategy that completely saves the future. Therefore answers could not help but come. University students must surely remember this.

Then we cannot just end with this. If so, what should we do? You are the main figures to save the church. You must surely remember this.
[ Turning Points of the Age ]
There are very important turning points by which God changed the age.
[ 1. Calvary – Mt Olive – Mark’s upper room ]
What is the first? The disciples who had been taught for three years during the public ministry, and then the Jews—they would not do. He called the disciples who saw Calvary to Mt Olive. And He sent them to Mark’s upper room. This is a tremendous turning point of the age. Until then they were just the crowds, but now they are disciples.
[ 2. Acts 11:1–18, 11:19 (Antioch) ]
Next is Acts 11:1–18 and 11:19—Antioch. This becomes a tremendous turning point. Those who received grace in Mark’s upper room hit a limit; that alone was not enough. This opened the way over here.
[ 3. Acts 19:21, 23:11, 27:24 ]
Third: those who knew “You must also see Rome,” “You must testify in Rome,” “You must stand before Caesar.” These are extremely important. Knowing such things, plan—this is what I am saying. University students must plan evangelism. You can do it as much as you like. Pastors must utilize the whole congregation so that they may receive such blessings. You can gently do this as much as you like. I did it even when I was an associate pastor. It is good.
But this is not yet another meeting or program. You must truly receive answers this year.
Because Paul did this properly, what blessing came out?
[ 1. The back-side covenant ]
He made them fully realize the back-side covenant. This is what we call an answer. A day will come when the back-side covenant becomes clear to you. There is no need to hurry. In some respects, this keeps coming.
[ 2. Romans 16:17–20 ]
And it clearly appears today: at that time, Satan will kneel before you. Before those who have God’s covenant as the back-side covenant, he utterly kneels. Darkness knelt before Joseph. It knelt before Moses. It is bound to kneel—because they firmly held the true back-side covenant. This is the final answer for you university students. “Ah, I must do this!” That is what comes out. If you truly know this prayer, it will come out.
[ 3. Romans 16:25–27 ]
Finally, look: He said, “I will give what was kept hidden.” “I will give what was hidden.” When? What was hidden before the ages. It will be forever and ever, but that is the secret. “I give to you what was kept hidden.” Truly, we have received everything.

▣ Main Message: The Romans 16 Team
When this takes place, an important team composition is formed. How? Three things appear.

  1. The 24 Prayer Team
    The people of Romans 16 are the 24 Prayer Team.
  2. The Evangelism 24 Team
    Not just casually, but an Evangelism 24 Team emerged, completely 24. It becomes like this.
  3. The Planning 24 Team
    Finally, the Planning 24 Team emerges. We use such terms, but in the Bible these were the actual people.

1. The 24 Prayer Team

1) What He kept hidden
As said earlier, to these people God promised to give what He had kept hidden. University students, 24 prayer is not difficult. It is enjoying the most blessed and most powerful thing.

2) What He kept hidden in the field
He promised to give what He kept hidden within the field.

3) What He kept hidden in eternity (the future)
And what else? He gives what He kept hidden in the future. The true answer is what God brings to us. If we remain within this blessing, this covenant, God brings it to us. Starting today, gently, in each church this team (elders—teams of five as one unit, young adults—three courtyards, RT—the three-day weekend age, university—planning) must arise. There is so much to plan. We must not lose hold of it, right?

2. The Evangelism 24 Team
The Evangelism 24 Team emerged.

1) Protectors

2) Co-workers

3) Hosts
Protectors, co-workers, and hosts—these are the Evangelism 24 Team.

  1. The Planning 24 Team
    At last, the Planning 24 Team emerged. What do they plan?

1) A secret corps
A secret corps that stakes their lives. You may not understand it well now, but at that time you would. You must not make it noticeable. It is a secret corps.

2) R.M.
And they went in earnest to the synagogues and raised the Remnants. You can begin now.

3) Holy Mason
And we must prepare a temple that has the three courtyards. Try planning—it will come out.
[ The Romans 16 Team ]
Then this proceeded exactly as in the Bible. Where? As I said earlier. Especially though Corinth was important and Colossae was important, we had to save Rome in order to save the 237 nations, so it was the Romans 16 Team. Our university students must restore this blessing. Elders, gently, our church leaders, let us pray. If a person of evangelism has attached to you, it means you are truly a blessed person. If, during my lifetime, a person of prayer has been connected to me, there is nothing greater than this. If at last a person who can plan world evangelization has met with you, there is no greater blessing. When you look at those who surely fail, you will see that connections begin with disputes and fights that have nothing to do with any of this.

▣ Conclusion
What is the conclusion? What must the university realize? Adults do not know.

  1. System (disciples)
    From now on it must be disciple-centered system evangelism. If you do not know this system, you cannot evangelize Muslims, you cannot evangelize China. There is a way to quietly evangelize North Korea. That is the system. You must surely keep this in mind. University students can do it.
  2. Media (epistles)
    In the end it is media. Even back then, they already sent epistles.
  3. Bartizan (healing)
    In the end, what is it? It is healing. We call this bartizan evangelism. Only this can change the future world. With what will we change the world? With a system made by those who truly enjoy the gospel and possess the power of the throne. University students, take a close look at the church. Here and there it has been set up so that the gospel is not properly testified. This is Satan’s trick. It must be changed.
    It is almost the pastors’ responsibility. Church doors in America have all closed. That is why we do RU. It is the theologians’ responsibility. The churches of Europe have already closed. It is the responsibility of those pastors and theologians. What did they teach? They are teaching Judaism—Judaism that Jesus said is of no use. We must teach the gospel—the gospel that gives life to people, the gospel that changes all darkness and the bartizan. Do that—that is what I am saying.
    Therefore there is only one way. How will we save our nation? How will we save those Muslims? How will we save North Korea and China? It is the system. And without showing at all, media must ride upon that system and go in. Since the whole world is sick, what is the true bartizan? Healing. It becomes like this. University students must understand.

From the Bartizan of the Three Courtyards

Prayer Journal: October 30, 2025
01. Feb. 2025 Remnant & TCK Study of Evangelism
Scripture Reading: Acts 1:1-8


I am not saying this to boast, but to share what I have received by God’s grace, hoping it may help you. There are many things and many people in the church. It doesn’t matter. And there are many different styles of churches. It doesn’t matter either. Just serve. While doing that, I did one thing. In every church I went to, there were people who could be evangelized. Always—at least one or two. I met those people. I evangelized them separately, in every church I went to. No one could say anything against that. It’s evangelism. If it were something else, they might criticize, but evangelism? No. And in every church I went to, the fire was ignited. That was God’s grace. I was amazed.

President of Elders’ Association, President of Ordained Deacons’ Association, President of Women’s Mission Society, President of Women Elders’ Association, Young Adults, College
So this year, look carefully. Simply put, if there is a president among the elders, that’s good—it’s because he represents them. Among ordained deacons, there is also a president. There’s also a president of the women’s mission society, and nowadays, there are many women elders. That’s fine. They can do even better than men. It’s fine. Women elders’ president. And (young adults, college) I did not include the middle and high school departments; they were separate. This group (presidents of elders, ordained deacons, women’s mission society, women elders, young adults, college) are the precious cores of the church. These people plan evangelism. There must be someone who plays a definite assistant or secretary role—that’s the college group. And someone who takes a leadership role—that’s the young adults. I will talk about this at the young adults’ retreat this time. The elders help the church stand firm. That’s why we use the term “five-person team.” The ordained deacons work behind the scenes so that spiritual revival takes place. There is no time to waste. They make it happen. These are all such people. Of course, some may go directly into the field, but if an elder stops running his business to go around evangelizing all the time, I don’t think that’s the best approach. Then what are they to do when they gather like this?

(Preparation for the 300% Camp)
The answer is this: prepare the 300% camp. The issue is not church growth—it must come to life. There must be at least one person who truly comes to life. Even if there’s just one, that person must go and save people, save their workplace, save the field, and save the church. But going to work and ruining people, or harming others everywhere—that cannot be. This is truly a time of grace.

(Guidance of the Holy Spirit, Working of the Holy Spirit, Fruit of the Holy Spirit)
Then, as mentioned earlier, this (25) is the enjoyment of the kingdom of God—receiving the guidance of the Holy Spirit together. The work of the Holy Spirit takes place in the field. The fruit of the Holy Spirit appears. These three—this is 300%. So we first receive the answer and gain strength. You do not come to church to start working first—you first gain strength. The blessing must first arise. If not, people fall into trials while working in church, and the number of those who continue to work until the end is the fewest. They all get discouraged. But is there really any reason to be discouraged like that? You must simply do it like this. This group (presidents of elders, ordained deacons, women’s mission society, women elders, young adults, college) must be identified this year without fail.

Introduction – Young Adults: God’s Goal [Three Courtyards]
Now, among these, today we will focus on what young adults must do. Of course, this applies to all believers, but we must know God’s goal. It’s not only that we must be aligned in direction with God, but our goal must also match His. For example, no matter how well you play soccer, you must score a goal to win. If we play Brazil, and Brazil scores none but we score one, we win.
This is the three courtyards—the three courtyards that Jesus pointed out with indignation. These are God’s goals. Look at the Bible.

  1. Acts 13, 16, 19 (Mission Door)
    In chapters 13, 16, and 19, what appears at the beginning? The Gentile door opens completely under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. It shows the opening of the missionary door.
  2. Acts 13, 16, 19 (Healing) – Nephilim
    Also in chapters 13, 16, and 19, what else do we see? The courtyard of healing. Simply put, this is healing the Nephilim. Yesterday, when I met with medical professionals, I said this: the calling of medical professionals is to heal the Nephilim described in the Bible. They must know this, because that is the root of sickness, and later it plays a major role in causing problems.
  3. Acts 17, 18, 19 (RT)
    Then in chapters 17, 18, and 19, the synagogue appears—the courtyard of children.
    These three are God’s goals: to save the Gentiles, to heal the sick, and to save the next generation. The direction must align, but the goal must also be right.

Main Message – The Throne, Transcending Time and Space, Unprecedented and Never-Repeated
From this point, three blessings come to you. When you do this (the three courtyards), the blessing of the throne that Jesus promised arises. When your goal aligns this way, you receive the blessing of the throne, and since you must save the 237 nations, the answer of transcending time and space comes. What is prayer? It is transcending time and space. Then what comes next? The answer that belongs only to you—the unprecedented and never-repeated—follows. It’s okay even if you fall; just rise again. That’s not a problem. If you made a mistake, realize it—that’s all. It’s not an issue. But if you lose God’s direction and goal, nothing works. From this point, three things come.

  1. Platform (Acts 2:1–18)
    A platform—people cannot help but come. Acts 2:1–18. What comes from this?
  2. Watchtower
    A watchtower arises—a place that shines light and saves people. It’s also called a bartizan of watch. A watchtower.
  3. Antenna
    You must help people who come to have what you have. That’s the antenna.
    From now on, everything that happens to you is God’s blessing. Simply put, even though our denomination is splitting and forming new assemblies, that’s a great blessing. How good that another one is established! It’s a blessing. Some go, some come—that’s also a blessing. The more I think about it, the more thankful I am. Truly. Those who go, go well; those who come, come well. God is the one who ultimately works it out. I truly hope it goes well for them. When this (platform, watchtower, antenna) is built, the answers come.

Conclusion – Bartizan: Watchman
This (platform, watchtower, antenna) is called a bartizan. Then what do you become? A watchman. We must raise the remnants this way, but I invited the young adults instead this time because they must play this role. You must know God’s goal and take the lead role in it.

Main Message

  1. Platform (Acts 2:1–18)
    What comes inevitably to the platform:

Power (2:1–13)
When they gathered, power came—Acts 2:1–13.

Future (2:17–18)
When they gathered, the future became visible—Acts 2:17–18. “They will prophesy, dream dreams, and see visions.” Platform.

Economy of light (2:43–47)
Even more amazing, in verses 43–47 comes the economy of light. The grace they received on the Lord’s Day (v.42) continues through this flow.

  1. Watchtower (Acts 2:9–11)
    What must be seen carefully here? These people (2:9–11). They came and received the miraculous gospel. When they receive the gospel, what happens? They return to their countries. An amazing event.

1) Foreigners (multiethnic)
Those in verses 9–11 were foreigners, multiethnic people.

2) Jews
Some were Jews, and others were multiethnic people who had followed the Jews there. This was not an ordinary field—this was the very field of world evangelization.

3) Field of world evangelization
Not just world evangelization—it was the field of world evangelization. You must tell this to multiethnic people. You must discern things properly. The fact that they came to Korea and to our church to hear the gospel means they have received an enormous blessing. Therefore, they must not miss it. What must they carry back? They must tear down Satan’s bartizans and establish God’s bartizan. That’s the field.

  1. Antenna (Acts 2:41–47)
    Then, the antenna must be established. I recommend reading Acts 2:41–47.

1) Three thousand
When the antenna was established, three thousand disciples arose.

2) Worship
Not only that—they succeeded in worship. That is the antenna. Worship success. As you worship today, resolve all your conflicts clearly—that’s success.

3) Fulfillment
At this time, the Word was fulfilled in the temple and in homes.

There was an elder who worked as an executive in a major conglomerate. He was my friend. But he was dismissed. Why? Because that company was practically corrupt, and he foresaw its collapse. He was dismissed through the schemes of corrupt leaders. I told him, “Elder, you are amazing. That is success.” He was deeply moved. I wasn’t wrong. “Elder, that is success. Life does not just end like that.” After that, he often talked with me. He made a life decision—though he was older, he went to study theology. His surname was Ha, but his given name was a bit unusual, and he wanted to change it. I said, “Good. I’ll help you.” So we went to see Elder Kim Kwang-Il, who found twelve possible names for him. The elder laughed just as you are now and said to me, “You should be a lawyer.” He changed his name to Ha Hun. He was much older than me. As soon as he began pioneering a church in Yeongdo, he drove down to see me. He said, “Let’s go to Seoul—why are you here in this remote part of Busan?” I said, “I can’t go.” Inside, I thought, “If only you had come earlier.” I had already begun this ministry here, so I couldn’t leave. You can’t live that way. That would have been a big problem.

We often misunderstand what blessing and answer really are. Are you suffering hardships? You are truly blessed. It’s hard to understand, isn’t it? But the Bible says so, and real history confirms it.

Conclusion – Bartizan: Watchman
That’s why God has set you as watchmen. Our remnants must truly remember this. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, we thank You. We thank You for establishing us again today as Your blessing. Let this be a time to make a resolution through Your Word today. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.


The Accurate Start of World Missions

Prayer Journal: October 29, 2025
26. Jan. 2025 Immanuel Church Sunday Worship 2nd Service
Scripture Reading: Genesis 39:19-23


The world must be evangelized, yet difficulties sometimes arise before us. What should we do then? At times, great hardships also come. What do most people do in such times? Many people, and this is when it matters, are greatly shaken. When I went to evangelize our middle and high school department, I explained the gospel like this: What does God’s Word say about the problems happening right now? Last week, this kind of incident occurred—what does the Bible say about it? I wrote letters on that basis. As soon as I came to this town, I also wrote gospel letters. I didn’t even get to the tenth; by the eighth letter, works arose. So I supplemented the remaining two. Now, listen carefully. Many of your answers lie in other places. For example, last week a singer many of you love committed suicide. Why did they do it? What is the answer, and what does the Bible say? When you give answers like this, remarkable works arise.

Now then, on one side, a great disaster was striking Egypt. It began together with the disasters striking the whole world. On the other side, there was one person who would proclaim the gospel, and that was Joseph. They put Joseph in prison. How do you think about that? The woman kept tempting Joseph. Even then, Joseph resisted, so the woman stripped Joseph’s garment. Yet Joseph still resisted. Then the woman shouted. She seized Joseph’s garment as evidence. The law stands on evidence. Presenting the evidence, they argued their case, and Joseph was put into prison. Such paired events were taking place. Therefore, for tomorrow and beyond, you must have a proper view of the world. You must see the Word rightly.

This was the exact beginning of world evangelization. That is, Joseph was now being taken to prison. But it was the prison where the king’s prisoners were confined. Was that a coincidence? You must know that, in the things that happen to you going forward in your life of faith, God’s blessings are almost always prepared. Therefore, not once did Joseph stumble because of this woman, call her evil, or seek revenge. There was none of that. Genesis 39:19–23 is the scene you all read together of entering the prison.

▣ Introduction [Genesis 37:1–11]
Now Genesis 37:1–11 connects with Joseph’s dreams. Joseph had a clear dream of world evangelization, and this is what happened. Here something tremendous takes place. If you cannot open your eyes to this, you cannot live a life of faith. The Pharisees, who were in the wrong, were seizing people and killing them—if God is alive, why was the Early Church persecuted? The Bible does not present that kind of complaint. How will you live a life of faith? Rome persecuted Christians for 250 years. How will you live a life of faith?

(Prison)
He went to a place called prison. This prison is the place where this mystery is fulfilled. It connects exactly like that. So take what is happening to you and compare it with what is in the Bible. Read them in alignment. This is the timetable when God’s special grace becomes visible. And that is not all. Look at the Bible.

1. Abraham (Genesis 12:1–3)
Events broke out around Abraham that almost brought him to death. From the very beginning God promised world missions. Even though he had no child, it was said, “All peoples will be blessed through your seed.” But incidents kept bursting forth around Abraham. Every one of them was a step toward world evangelization. Therefore, those who truly lived the life of faith were not shaken by persecution. Those who truly lived the life of faith, people of prayer, when they saw hardships, knew they were not hardships. Truly. If you cannot see that, you miss the real thing.

2. Moses’s hardship (Exodus 3:1–20)
One day, hardship came to Moses. To what extent? He fled and hid in Midian for forty years. At that time God called him—right on time. The astonishing history of the Exodus began. You need this eye to see the world tomorrow. There is nothing to be dismayed about. Potiphar’s wife could not help herself: full, wealthy, nothing to do, bored, spiritual problems arise—what would she do? Right? That does not mean we applaud her. Joseph simply left it alone. He saw what was important. Only when your eyes for the Word and your eyes for reality are accurate will you receive this kind of answer.

Now, remnants, some may say, “It is too hard to live in our home.” Then what does the Bible say? What does the Bible say about the remnants? It is the same as you. Yet they fulfilled world evangelization. You must be able to see this. Right now, as we worship, there is a church in Washington in America that has no preacher and is worshiping with us. Gwangyang Light Church is also worshiping with us. Many people think this is difficult. It is a golden opportunity. Right? It is fine to wait a little longer. A pastor who truly proclaims the gospel must come. Right?

So in America people said, “Please send a pastor who is good at English.” Must it be so? A pastor—though we have many assistant pastors here—a pastor must rightly proclaim the gospel and must be able to sacrifice with a large vessel for the church. Right? They must have the capacity to walk together with the believers. Right? Being good at German is not the issue. They must have the capacity to embrace many church leaders and remnants and lead them. The magnitude of that matters. Without it, even if they are fluent in English, German, and Japanese, it is of no use. So you are not facing hardship right now; in my view, it is the best timetable.

Look at them all. Joseph never grumbled, and the answer had already come. He had this (Genesis 37:1–11). This is very important. The beginning of your church and ours is this. If you look at a few of our deaconesses and elders who began with us, they all came out of churches where people fought and came because they did not want to fight. Is fighting the purpose when we go to church? They fought so much the police came and went. Shouldn’t we be the ones to go and comfort the police, rather than the police coming to comfort us? These are the people who gathered so as not to do that. So when we began here, we said, “Let’s do only the gospel movement.” Then you must see the way for everything. And that’s not all.

3. David’s hardship (Preparation)
David was pursued for decades. But that was not the essence. During the time David was being chased, disciples were gathered who could establish a thousand bartizans and prepare to build the temple.

4. The captivity
And as you know, when they were taken into Babylonian captivity,

5. Rome – 237 and 5000
and when they became a Roman subject nation, the same answer came. In those places were people of the 237 nations and the 5000 tribes who would block the darkness and the plague of darkness.

▣ Main
Therefore, today we are holding a missions commitment service. So then, what answers do we receive and pass on? That is missions.

1. The day destinies are changed
First, though it looked as if Joseph suffered a brief injustice, it was the day many people’s destinies were changed. This is important. If destinies are not reversed, they cannot come out of disaster.

2. The day the field is changed
It is the day the field is completely changed toward the 237 nations. Whenever hardships come, you must see this: it is the day someone’s destiny is being reversed.

3. The day the future is changed
Third, what is it? This, inevitably: the day the future is changed. Knowing this, you serve the church and give offerings. The offerings you give are used for this.

1. The day destinies are changed
Now, verse 21 says that the Lord was with him, but note how it is written. Verse 21 says, “The Lord was with Joseph and extended kindness to him and granted him favor in the eyes of the warden.” There was no one who could help him. Right? Then in verse 23 it ends like this: “The warden paid no attention to anything under Joseph’s care, because the Lord was with Joseph.”

1) False accusation
Although it looked like Joseph bore a false accusation, that day was the day Joseph’s destiny was reversed.

2) Prison
Although it looked like Joseph was sent to prison, that day was the day the warden’s destiny was reversed.

3) Disaster
It was the day disaster itself was reversed.

You must believe this. Then you do missions—and some people stake their lives and go out as missionaries. Long ago, missionaries came to our country, and Korea’s destiny was turned upside down. Before that, our nation was entirely an idolatrous nation. Korea’s destiny was overturned. Many still do not know this—people around the world still do not know. How did Korea develop like that? Korea is now one of the best places to live. There is no country as convenient as Korea right now. You are living unaware of it. Americans come to Korea and are astounded. At a competition—not even downtown but in the outskirts—they went to a motel and found everything computerized; they were amazed: “Is there a country like this?” When cars enter, everything is automatically recorded—everything is automated. Even in America, many places are not like that. Our nation’s actual power has entered the world’s top five. It was once a dark nation. Because it was so dark, Japan, though not strong, said, “Let’s swallow this and quickly go on to China.” But at that time, the light of the gospel shone into our land. You must know what missions is. You must know what your life of faith is. At the moment you realize it, light shines—destiny is reversed.

2. The day the field is changed
It did not end there. The field is changed. What does verse 21 say?

1) The warden
Verse 21 says, “He granted him favor with the warden.” On the path where the evangelist and the remnant go, God grants blessing even through unbelievers. Thus the field changes.

2) All affairs
Seeing Joseph, they entrusted to him all affairs. Verse 22 says, “The warden put all the prisoners under Joseph’s care, and he was in charge of all that was done there.” Why? Because the blessing of God’s presence began to appear in the field. Verse 23 says, “The warden paid no attention to anything under Joseph’s care, because the Lord was with Joseph.” Simply put, anything entrusted to Joseph needed no attention. Why? Because God was blessing it. This is missions. This is the blessing you will receive. And at the end it says, “The Lord gave him success in whatever he did.”

3) In everything
Not only in all affairs, but in everything. If you open your eyes to this today, your field will change. Suppose a remnant has a serious problem at home. Look at the Bible. See what problems came to Joseph. Then see what problem came to Moses’s home when he was a child. You will quickly find the answer. Not knowing this, people despair, waver, and are wounded. Wounds from childhood—if mishandled—though they were nothing, can grow into something strange as one grows up. They are trivial, yet wounds are taken. Last week I said this to young mothers raising our remnants: even the birth of a younger sibling can wound the firstborn. So, young parents, when the new baby is born, do not walk in holding the baby. Entrust the baby to someone else first. You must talk to the older child: “Your sibling has come,” and explain. When it is time to nurse, ask, “Is it okay if I feed the baby now?” One day, I saw a mother walk in holding a baby; the whole family looked at me, then stopped looking at me and looked only at the baby. The older child thought, “How can such a thing be?” Spiritually weak and sensitive children will be crushed by that—though it is nothing. The more sensitive and bright our teenagers are, the more they are wounded by trivial things. Then imagine if a big problem comes at home—what will happen? Look at the Bible. These works occur. Believe it surely. Wherever you go, destinies are reversed. Wherever you go, the field is changed.

3. The day the future is changed
It does not stop there. The future is changed. How is it written?

1) 20 – The king
Verse 20 has an important statement: “It was the place where the king’s prisoners were confined.” An astonishing word. This is the road there. God sent him there exactly—because the remnant Joseph had to go to the palace. God does things exactly like this.

2) The chief official
There he meets the chief official. We will see that next week. In today’s terms, he meets a person above cabinet rank—roughly a minister who serves the king. Compared to a president? There is no comparison. A president serves for a few years and is done; a king continues. Especially an Egyptian king—tremendous. That way is now opening.

3) The world’s disasters
Your hardship is the very day the world’s disasters are changed. Without fail. When your eyes open to this, you will say, “Ah, that is why we pray and wait.” When your eyes open, you will say, “Ah, this is what it means to serve the church. This is evangelism and missions.”

▣ Conclusion [Disaster]
Therefore, what you are now holding as your covenant is to block the disasters of every age. Surely. When the gospel came into Busan, it blocked Busan’s disasters. Ordinary people do not know. Politicians think they did it, but no. Those who actually saved our nation were businesspeople, doctors, scientists, and many such people. Professors and others at schools also saved it. And there were servants of God who silently proclaimed the gospel and prayed for our nation.

1. 237 – 5000
Therefore, this is the time when the blessing of the 237 opens. It does not all open at once. Little by little, as it opens, according to the exact timetable, the door to the 5000 tribes opens.

2. RU
From now on, RU will also arise in Korea. We will not recruit many. We will set a cap of about fifty and ask, “How shall we carry out the evangelism movement?”

3. Teams of five, nations
As our elder just said, organize teams of five in the church and communicate in prayer. While elders and deaconesses continue to unite in prayer, now organize elders, deaconesses, and remnants who can communicate for evangelism. And assign each to different nations.

The moment you hold the covenant, the darkness collapses. This is the blessing He has given. Do you know what He promised? I was astonished at this Word: “All authority in heaven and on earth is given to Me, and surely I am with you always.” Not the crowds—“Make disciples.” Right? “Those afflicted by the Nephilim disease, no one can heal—go in My name, the name of Jesus, and pray.” “When you receive only the fullness of the Holy Spirit, you will be My witnesses to the ends of the earth.” I think of that fullness of the Holy Spirit as 300%. Receive the 300% blessing. Let every church leader receive blessing so that your work shows 300%. What is that 300%? We discussed it at our session meeting this morning.

I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that a new timetable and new grace will come upon you this week. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, we thank You. Add new grace to us this week. Grant us new strength. Let the power of new world evangelization appear. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

Re-create the Field

Prayer Journal: October 28, 2025
26. Jan. 2025 Immanuel Church Sunday Worship 1st Service
Scripture Reading: Genesis 39:1-6


▣ Introduction: Question of God’s Absolute Plan
I once saw something that had actually happened in our country on TV. For decades, someone had taken a person with a slight intellectual disability and forced him to work. They locked him up and made him work. If he tried to escape and was caught, they beat him half to death. They made him sleep in strange places. They fed him discarded food. And because this person was in such a difficult situation, the abuser even applied for and collected government welfare payments meant for him. When someone found out and went to question him, the victim was so terrified he didn’t want to go anywhere. He lived that way for decades. It was a real case. Hard to comprehend, isn’t it?

That alone was shocking, but in some less developed foreign countries, even more horrifying incidents occur. A young woman once went traveling abroad and was kidnapped right at the airport. You can’t just get in any car—she was abducted by someone who offered her a ride. And then she disappeared. If you go on a trip, people expect you to be at your destination, but she couldn’t be reached. Her family, thinking something was wrong, reported it—but who can easily find someone like that? Even if the police try, they can’t search everywhere without clues. So her father took matters into his own hands, abandoning everything to search for her. “I must find my daughter.” When he arrived at the scene, the reality was revealed. He found the place. When he brought the police there, they discovered many people being held captive. The kidnappers didn’t kill them immediately; they locked them up and killed them one by one to sell their organs. Terrible, evil people. They killed children and sold their living organs at a high price. The place was full of such captives. The girl was waiting her turn to die. Watching that, I thought, “Wow… such a world exists.” In the past, such things were common.

Likewise, Joseph’s brothers actually planned to kill him. When death stands right before you, everything changes—brothers, parents, it doesn’t matter. Death is terrifying. They were going to kill Joseph, but one brother said, “Let’s not do this. Let’s sell him instead. We can tell Father he’s dead and make some money.” So they sold him easily, for profit. There were people who bought and sold others as slaves. That’s how Joseph was taken away. He didn’t go by airplane or car—he was dragged. It wasn’t a journey of days, but months, dragged endlessly. He had to sleep on the ground, not in hotels. Historical records say it was so harsh they couldn’t even wash or bathe. Imagine how they looked—their faces completely changed, their age indistinguishable. Sometimes they sold captives along the way to other traders. How painful that must have been. And those traders weren’t ordinary people—they were human traffickers, murderers. Today such crimes are exposed, but back then, if they buried you, no one would ever know. Even in my childhood, we sometimes found bodies buried in the hills near our village—it was that kind of time. When trading slaves, they’d even check their teeth—if teeth were missing, “This one’s old.” If full set, “This one’s young.” If perfect like mine—expensive! That’s how they calculated. Joseph had no say in any of it. He was sold and dragged away. Eventually he arrived in Egypt. The merchants sold him to a man named Potiphar, captain of Pharaoh’s guard—the king’s chief security officer, like the head of a presidential guard. A powerful man. Joseph became a slave in his house. That’s where Joseph’s important life began.

1. Recreate the field.
Today’s title is “Recreate the Field.” This is the covenant you must absolutely hold to.

  1. Without the answer of re-creation, there is no way to survive.
    Joseph was dragged away like a slave—without the answer of re-creation, there was no way to live.
  2. If you don’t know the answer of re-creation, you’ll serve unbelievers all your life and die.
    If you don’t know the answer of re-creation, you’ll spend your whole life doing errands for unbelievers and die in hardship. This is something important you must understand today.
  3. 90% of people don’t know though great blessings are before them; 10% keep doing what cannot be done.
    The world is one of competition, fighting, and killing. What you choose in such times is important. Most people—90%—don’t receive answers. Why? Because they say, “It can’t be done,” when it can. Many treat non-problems as problems. They worry when they don’t need to, fear when they shouldn’t. Ninety percent are like that—blessings surround them, but they don’t see them. Many live complaining and grumbling while losing hold of blessings and answers already given. The other 10%? They try to do what cannot be done—Joseph’s brothers were such people. They shouldn’t have killed or sold their brother, yet they did. Those who insist on doing the impossible cause problems—the world’s troubles often come from that 10%, the elites. They push what cannot be done—wars break out that way. Others deny what can be done.

2. What is God’s absolute plan? Always ask. This is the prayer of prayers.
In the midst of all this, one day a sudden event happened—that was Joseph. He didn’t foresee it. His brothers, who planned to kill him, sold him to violent traders instead. Joseph had no plan, no way out. At that time, he prayed an important prayer. What was it? It’s the covenant you must hold today: “What is God’s absolute plan?” Not just “God’s plan,” but “God’s absolute plan.” We do not know, but even asking this question brings history to life. It is vital. This is the prayer of prayers. Keep asking, “What is God’s absolute plan?” Just by asking, history moves.

Today we have many good elders, deaconesses, believers. But when I first came here, there were none. Only one elder who has since passed away, no doctors, no medical missions—nothing. Not even a proper church building! How can you worship without one? That was the situation. So I asked, “God, what is Your absolute plan?” That was my only question. And immediately, God began to work, pouring abundant grace. The building wasn’t the issue. Soon, the Word movement spread to nearly 300 places. I personally went to our deaconesses’ homes and began Word movements in about thirty of them. Then people in Seoul tempted me to come to their fine churches—but I couldn’t. Not because I was so faithful, but because I had made a promise—to this place. Inside I thought, “Why are they coming now, so late?” But I stayed. Here I asked many questions, and God answered just as in Scripture, sending people for evangelism.

You must ask. We don’t know—but this question itself is prayer. If you are in hardship, ask this deeply: “What is God’s absolute plan?” Because it’s urgent, God answers quickly. He answered Joseph quickly too. Joseph, dragged away, surely asked this question—only that way could he endure. And there, he found something important.

  1. If you find God’s plan, you can overcome and endure.
    Even if you’re in deep despair, if you’ve found God’s plan, you can win. When hope is clear, you can endure—that’s what Joseph held. And history followed.
  2. You will feel that God is alive and answering you.
    Don’t be deceived—then you’ll sense, “God is alive and answering me.”
  3. You become a witness.
    Then his family would later see and know—he became a witness.

If Joseph had gone another way, he would have perished. If he had despaired, he’d have died on the road or as a slave. “Why did this happen? What did I do wrong? Why treat me so? I want to go home.” It would be useless. In despair, you can do nothing. Joseph didn’t just hold a general covenant—he held God’s absolute plan. This is crucial. In your hardships, ask this question. The answer that comes is unlike any other—it is the answer of re-creation. There’s no other way. In that desolate wasteland, with nothing left, only re-creation’s power could make a way. This is my testimony, your testimony, and that of many witnesses. In impossible situations, only the power of re-creation can work. Joseph held that.

▣ Main: The Answer of Re-creation

1. Re-creation where the prophesied Word is fulfilled (verses 1–2)
First, what kind of answer came? Re-creation where the prophesied Word was fulfilled. When Joseph was young, God had given him the sure covenant of world evangelization. Now it began. Verse 1 records Joseph arriving in Egypt at Potiphar’s house, captain of Pharaoh’s guard—an extraordinary opportunity from God. Had Joseph not asked about God’s absolute plan, he would’ve missed it all. But in verse 2 it says, “The Lord was with Joseph so that he prospered.” Very important. The prophesied Word began to be fulfilled.

  1. Abraham (Genesis 15:6, 18:17) – God first gives the Word that will be fulfilled. Holding it firmly, the Word was fulfilled.
    God said to Abraham, “Abram believed the Lord, and He credited it to him as righteousness.” (Genesis 15:6) And later, “Shall I hide from Abraham what I am about to do?” (Genesis 18:17).

(1) God’s absolute plan for the church leaders – world evangelization.
God gives the Word that will be fulfilled—so hold the absolute plan. Every church leader here is called for world evangelization. That is God’s absolute plan.

(2) God’s absolute plan for the remnants – to save the 237 nations.
God’s absolute plan for remnants is to save the 237 nations.

(3) God’s absolute plan for the multiethnic peoples here – to save the 5000 tribes.
The multiethnic believers here have God’s absolute plan to save the 5000 tribes. Holding this firmly, the Word is being fulfilled—now.

  1. When Joseph was suffering, he prayed and held to God’s Word—world evangelization—and this was the day of fulfillment (Genesis 37:1–11).
    When his mother died, in deep sorrow, Joseph prayed and received God’s Word. For a child, losing a mother is the hardest thing. A baby can grow without a father, but not without a mother. Benjamin was fine because he never knew his mother—she died when he was born. But Joseph knew, and that pain could have ruined him. Many lose their mind, even take their life from such trauma. But Joseph was different. Through his parents’ prayers and the covenant, Joseph held God’s Word precisely: “The sun, moon, and stars bowed before me.” That was world evangelization. This was the day it began to be fulfilled. When you face hardships, recognize them rightly—it is the day God’s Word is fulfilled.
  2. Holding the absolute plan, he rose above his brothers’ level and the slave market’s level.
    He rose above his brothers’ level, above the slave market’s level—so he could overcome. Even as a slave in the captain’s house, he surpassed that level.

※ Rise above that level. Hold the covenant that will be fulfilled. It will surely be fulfilled.
Remnants, remember this—rise above your level and hold the covenant that will be fulfilled. It may look like nothing, but that’s everything. It surely fulfills.

I experienced it. My family was strange because we believed in Jesus. Relatives persecuted us, saying our father died because of our faith—that we were cursed. My mother stood firm: “I have raised four children by faith in God. You never helped me, but God did.” One older relative agreed, softening the atmosphere. I just watched as a child. Later, God truly worked—those idolatrous relatives fell into strange ruin, while our family alone was set apart for world evangelization. The covenant is fulfilled. For Joseph, that time had come—and it didn’t end there.

2. Re-creation where the Word transcending time and space is fulfilled (verse 2)
Second, the power of the Word transcending time and space began to be fulfilled. The first was the prophesied covenant. The Word you hold will be fulfilled—how? By the power that transcends time and space. Verse 2 says, “The Lord was with Joseph… and his master saw that the Lord was with him.” Potiphar saw it.

  1. The power to embrace and transcend the field appears.
    A greater answer follows—you receive power to embrace and transcend your field.
  2. The history where the throne, God’s kingdom, and the works of God’s kingdom are fulfilled begins.
    Simply put, the works of the throne and the kingdom of God begin to be fulfilled. Believe it.
  3. Do not be deceived.
    Even in hardship, I refused to be deceived, even if some thought me arrogant. You must not be deceived or become like them. Even if you live among beggars, if you become like one, you are one. Remnants, remember this. Just because your family is poor doesn’t mean you must be poor. Don’t be deceived. Even if your environment is bad, don’t be deceived by it.

In America, I said, “Do not assimilate into America. Adapt, but do not assimilate—otherwise, you cannot evangelize America.” There are churches that worship with us because their pastors are absent. In Gwangyang, and others, even overseas, some who face hardship and have nowhere else to go join our services through video. That’s why we adjust our 1st and 2nd services to them. Across the nation, over a hundred places worship with us now. May this grace reach them—the time when God’s Word is fulfilled.

3. Re-creation where the Word showing a firm future is fulfilled (verses 3–5)
Third, even more important: re-creation where the Word revealing a sure future was fulfilled. Simply put, the prophesied Word was fulfilled; when it’s fulfilled, it transcends time and space; and now it was showing the future.

  1. The unbeliever Potiphar saw that the Lord was with Joseph and made him prosper in everything (verse 3).
    Verse 3 says, “His master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord gave him success in everything he did.” That is the third blessing you must receive. You may think you’re merely enduring suffering, but unbelievers will see that God is with you. There is no greater blessing than that.
  2. Potiphar saw that the Lord protected Joseph and gave him grace to make him household manager (verse 4).
    Verse 4 says, “Joseph found favor in his eyes.” God can grant grace even through unbelievers. Why? Because no one else could help Joseph. If he became sick, no one would care. If he fell into despair, no one would help. Only the Lord, invisibly by the Holy Spirit, protected him—and Potiphar saw it. Though an unbeliever, he showed favor. He made Joseph household manager, saying, “You are in charge of everything I own.” Joseph was no longer just a slave—the captain of the guard entrusted his entire estate to him.
  3. The Lord blessed all that belonged to Potiphar for Joseph’s sake (verse 5).
    Verse 5 says, “The Lord blessed the household of the Egyptian because of Joseph.” “For Joseph’s sake.” Even one evangelist brings blessing. For Joseph’s sake—likewise, for your sake. It says God blessed even the fields. That means even the soil, the crops, were blessed. Everything—because of Joseph. Be assured of this.

Remnants, no matter how hard things get, it’s okay—just hold to God’s absolute plan. Then the prophesied Word will be fulfilled, transcending time and space. Even if you’re abroad and alone, it fulfills there. Parents may pray in Korea while the child is in America, yet God works there. Jacob prayed in Israel, but God’s Word worked in Joseph.

▣ Conclusion_ Potiphar entrusted all he owned to Joseph, seeing three things (verse 6)
In conclusion, verse 6 says, “He left everything he owned in Joseph’s care.” Everything—not some things. That means Potiphar saw three things in Joseph.

  1. God was with him – WITH.
    He saw that God was with Joseph.
  2. God was with him where he was – Immanuel.
    He saw that wherever Joseph was, God was with him.
  3. God was with him in everything he did – Oneness.
    He saw that in all Joseph did, God was with him.

That’s what we call WITH, IMMANUEL, and ONENESS. Potiphar saw that power.

Soccer player Son Heung-min is a man of faith. His father taught him well: “Build a solid foundation.” After games, he greets the other players—few do that. Even opposing players ask to take pictures with him. He already has the strength to overcome the field.

※ You must recreate the field. When you hold God’s absolute plan, the Word works.
Remnants, remember—you must recreate the field. Don’t ask other questions. When you hold God’s absolute plan, the Word works.

I once told this story: In the village of Ungcheon, there was a man I knew well. He wasn’t educated, quite poor, and seemed simple. He had no clear job—he did errands for others, like a village servant. People called him for odd jobs, gave him food for payment. But though he didn’t say much, he had something—the strongest faith in the village. Others thought, “He’s weak, so he just relies on church.” No. Even the children knew his name. He had three sons, all with the covenant. They never felt ashamed of their father; they respected and honored him deeply. They said, “Our father made us children of God.” Among them, one became a general—the first from the village. Another became a doctor, the youngest a judge. All three had noble professions. Now, during village feasts, they seat that deacon at the head table, out of respect and fear of his sons! Before, people called him to sweep garbage; now they escort him to the best seat. And yet, he and his children remain faithful. Restore the blessing of re-creation.

Prayer. God, we thank You. Let us, like Joseph, enjoy the blessing of re-creation wherever we go. Let us see Your absolute plan in every crisis and become witnesses of the fulfillment of Your Word. Let this week’s Word bring works of life wherever we go. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
