Our Time Schedule for Posterity

Prayer Journal: April 4, 2026
2025.07.06 Sunday 2nd Service
Scripture Reading: Matthew 27:25, Luke 23:2

Thank you. During the public worship time, it becomes the time to heal myself. Though we are here, this is also the time to heal the field you must go to. It is the time to heal the future. We must begin preparing for the upcoming WRC, and today we must pray especially. What must we teach our Remnants?

[Daily] [Three concentrations]
Wherever they are, there is an answer that our Remnants must enjoy every day. It does not matter where they are. That is the three concentrations. Our newly anointed church leaders must always remember this. If you do not enjoy this, you will lose almost everything. In the morning, you must recover everything. Health and all other things must be restored in the morning. The day is the time to confirm. The night is the time to produce 300% works. You must absolutely do this.

[Fundamental healing – Fundamental strength]
There is something to enjoy every moment. You must remember this. It is to heal the root. Doctors can handle physical healing. We heal the root. Every day. That is how we gain fundamental strength. We must help our Remnants enjoy this. You must also do this.

[Sunday] [All church members – Strength, healing]
On Sundays, truly, all church members receive strength and healing.

「Our timetable for the next generation」
We must now do this for our Remnants. This is the most important timetable for us. We must clearly show the next generation what the gospel and the power of prayer truly are. Otherwise, we will make the next generation suffer. Preparing this is our timetable. Especially, young parents raising children must remember this even more. If you do not pass this strength to your children, they will live with hardships their entire lives. But if they possess this strength, the Remnants will become the main figures saving the world.

That is why I said in the first service today—The Feast of Harvest and the Pentecost are to heal the root and to gain fundamental strength. So, look carefully at today’s Bible verses:

(Matthew 27:25)
It is what the Israelites said. When they said this, it was toward the end of Jesus’ time on earth. Within 30 to 40 years, their descendants would be scattered.

(Luke 23:28)
That is why Christ said, “Weep for your children.”

(John 21:15-18)
After His resurrection, Jesus came to Peter. He did not ask anything. He did not say, “Why did you do that?” Peter had run away. But Jesus did not ask, “Why did you run away?” It was urgent. He asked, “Do you love me?” Peter said he did. Jesus repeated the same thing: “Feed my lambs.” It is urgent.

▣ Introduction_ Urgency
As you know, the situation is urgent.

1. Developed countries (Spiritual ignorance)
What is the real problem of developed countries? Despite being far more advanced than us, what is their real problem? They are utterly ignorant spiritually. They do not know.

1) Traps
They do not realize how terrifying the traps made by Satan and the three organizations are.

2) Frames
3) Snares
Everywhere, they have created frames and snares that produce a culture of darkness. They do not know.

2. The 5000 tribes (Survival needs)
It is not merely about underdeveloped nations. What is the real problem of the 5000 tribes? They are overwhelmed with survival. It is the issue of food, clothing, and shelter. How can they survive? That is their struggle.

3. World churches – Revival (Survival)
Our church must never fall into this. What is the problem of world churches? Even with many new elders, including the elders of our church, we must never fall into this. “How can we achieve revival?” Why do you want revival? For business? Absolutely not. “How can we survive?” That is not it either. This is the crisis of world churches. When revival comes, they do all sorts of nonsense. We must not build a church like that.

We must create three courtyards where Remnants, the sick, and the multiethnic people come and receive grace. We must open the three-day weekend age so that fundamental healing takes place. We must open the age of holy meditation to save the next generation. We must do this. Not anything else.

Some churches are treated like stores. When our church in Yeongdo, Busan, grew, neighboring churches went crazy. They have been like that for thirty years. You must open your spiritual eyes and see what the church must truly do.

In developed countries, most of the next generation are practically immersed in drugs, mental illness, and, to a significant extent, homosexuality. It has practically become the norm. In underdeveloped nations, people are dying of hunger, despite having abundant resources. It is astonishing.

The church must engage in spiritual warfare. During this WRC, you must receive this answer and pass it to the next generation.

▣ Main point

What must we do?

1. The adults must first receive answers
All the church members and adults here must first receive answers. What answers?

1) Genesis 37:11
After Joseph shared his dream of world evangelization, his brothers cursed him. But Jacob “kept the matter in mind.” You must begin praying in unity with the Remnants who possess the covenant. Without that, you lose everything. Your heart must connect with the covenant that saves the next generation and this age.

2) Exodus 2:1-10
In the face of crisis, what kind of heart do you think Jochebed, Moses’ mother, had when she prayed for him? If he was sent away, that was the end. She had to send him to the palace. How desperately must she have prayed? It was beyond ordinary prayer—it was desperate prayer. You must prepare with that heart so that through our Remnants, God’s true answer will be proclaimed worldwide.

3) Exodus 18:1-27
Who was it? Jethro, who, knowing the dangers, made Moses his son-in-law and devoted his life to help him. It was an important timetable. You are important. Do you not believe that? The Remnant Conference and this time are important. The light must quickly shine upon the 5000 tribes. The gospel must be restored to powerful nations, including America.

4) Joshua 2:1-16
This is the answer you must first receive. Rahab grabbed hold of the great covenant first. Even if you are powerless, if you hold on to the accurate covenant, works will take place. The more difficult the times, the more you must hold on to the accurate covenant. That is enough.

Those of you attending the first and second services and spending the whole day at church—you must truly worship and gain strength. That is it. No need for words. If you receive answers, others will naturally follow. If you receive answers, there is no need for gimmicks like “Come to our church.” If you receive answers, you will stand as witnesses before many people, and words will not be necessary. Prepare for this. The Remnants must come this time, receive spiritual healing, receive fundamental healing, gain fundamental strength, and be prepared to raise bartizans and go out. You know what happened to Rahab.

5) 1 Kings 18:1-15
Like Obadiah, who hid 100 Remnants. You must have that heart.

6) Acts 17:1, 18:4, 19:8
To the synagogues. Whenever Paul met important people, where did he take them? To the synagogue.

2. What the Remnants need most
Once you receive answers, what do the Remnants need most? You must pass that to them.

1) Acts 17:1 [Christ]
It is Acts chapter 17 verse 1. The Christ of the five timetables. Why is Christ necessary? Without Christ, you cannot block the disasters that come upon those living religious lives. You must help them understand these five things:

  • The Christ who existed before eternity.
  • The incarnate Christ.
  • The Christ who resurrected from death.
  • The Christ who will return as the Lord of the Second Coming.
  • The Christ who will eternally stand as the Judge and give the final answer.

You must pass this to them.

2) Acts 18:4 [The Sabbath]
At the very least, even if they do not know anything else, you must help the Remnants know how to pray. It happened every Sabbath. You must gain strength and healing through concentrated prayer on Sundays. You must send the Remnants out knowing the power of prayer. Studying is important, but not the most important. Even if they are poor at studying, if they have the power of prayer, they will be able to conquer the world. If they study diligently but have no spiritual power, what will happen?

3) Acts 19:8
You must teach them what world evangelization is. You must teach them what true answers are. What does Acts chapter 19 verse 8 say? Paul boldly explained about the kingdom of God, which Jesus spoke of. You must know what the power of the throne is to save unbelievers. You must know the kingdom of God to receive answers. You must know the work of the kingdom of God to bear fruit. Right? Some people participate in both first and second services and even dawn services. You must receive answers and change the world.

3. The main figures of 300%
You must do this for the Remnants. Send them as main figures of 300%.

1) Prayer 300%
Prayer 300%. What is that? 24, 25, eternity. 300%. You must help them know what that is and send them.

2) Work 300%
Help them so that their work is 300%. What is 300%? Only, uniqueness, recreation. You must help them develop this. Then they will unconditionally win. Should Remnants worry about food and survival? No. They must do world evangelization. Should they suffer like the previous generations, struggling to eat? No. It makes no sense. The Remnants must conquer the world with only, uniqueness, and recreation—300%. You must teach them this.

3) Evangelism/Missions 300%
They must do evangelism and missions with the three camps left by Paul. That is evangelism and missions 300%. What is 100%? Completely being led by the Holy Spirit. What must you do in the field? Raise the work of the Holy Spirit to block the Nephilim. Leave behind unshakable fruit of the Holy Spirit. You must send them out like this. Remnants, do not worry—if you go, God’s blessings will be confirmed.

If you face hardships, hidden answers are there. When the Remnants come to WRC this time, you must teach them and send them.

▣ Conclusion

Acts 1:3
What are the 40 days in Acts chapter 1 verse 3?

Engraving
Changing your imprint.

Acts 2:1-47
What answer did they receive in Mark’s upper room?

Root
Changing your root.

Synagogue
Why did they go to the synagogue? It is what we saw in Main Point 2.

Nature
Completely changing your nature.

These three are enough. No matter what anyone says, God will carry out world evangelization through the path you take. Through the path the Remnants take, God will carry out the gospel movement to block global disasters. You must pass this to the Remnants. You must hold to this covenant.

So, even the sick, do not worry—gain fundamental strength. If you are too worried because of your illness, even your prayer becomes filled with anxiety. Right? That is not healing—it becomes anxious prayer. Say, “I entrust everything to God. I will challenge with God’s power.” That is how fundamental strength arises.

If you are overly anxious, that is not prayer—that is anxious prayer. That is why when Paul faced great hardships, he prayed to the point where he could not tell if he was inside or outside the body.

If anyone is suffering, do not worry. Gain fundamental strength. Receive fundamental healing. Because of you, the field and the world will come to life.

I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that today will be the time when you gain great strength.

Prayer
God, we thank You. Work upon us now. Thank You for giving us the Word. Heal us today with Your power. Heal our root. Give us fundamental strength. Allow us the light that breaks down and transforms the world of darkness. May this week be the timetable of God where we receive great answers. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

 

The Temple That Overcomes the Wilderness

Prayer Journal: April 3, 2026
2025.06.29 Sunday 2nd Service
Scripture Reading: Ex 14:1-13

You are about to begin the special prayer for the construction of the temple. You must know how to receive answers. And even when scattered in the field, you must be able to start prayers that receive answers.

“The Temple That Overcomes the Wilderness”
From the beginning, God explained the tabernacle and temple movement that overcomes the wilderness. At first, it was hard to understand, but He said, “Bring everything you have and build the tabernacle in the wilderness.” That is the temple that overcomes the wilderness. Therefore, you must receive answers. As you offer special prayer or participate in the construction of the temple, you must receive important answers from God. To do that, you must first understand these two major points:

[ The Incident of Eden ]
There are three major problems in the Bible that continue to this day. The incident of Eden. It is the message, “Do not believe in God.” That is what happened in the Garden of Eden. The same thing happens even now. “If you eat this, you will become like God.” The same message. “If you become a Buddha, you will be fine.” Same message. “If you receive spiritual power, you will be fine.” Same message. Satan always destroys people this way.

[ The Incident of the Nephilim ]
Then came the incident of the Nephilim in Noah’s flood era. Simply put, people were completely seized by evil spirits. People often say, “They are possessed by gods.” That is the cause of destruction, and this continues even now.

[ The Incident of the Tower of Babel ]
In addition, people try to succeed by any means, whether they believe in God or not. That is the incident of the Tower of Babel. It completely collapsed. Even now, people are doing these same three things. Remnants must not be deceived. You must overcome these things. These are Satan’s methods continuing to this day.

Therefore, from the beginning, God gave us something:

[ Passover (The Blood – Liberation) ]
The Passover. On the day the blood was applied, they were set free. This is not an ordinary message. It continues to this day.

[ Pentecost (Holy Spirit) ]
Pentecost. This is God promising to be with us through the power of the Holy Spirit.

[ Feast of Ingathering (Throne) ]
The Feast of Ingathering. It means storing things in the storehouse. It represents the power of the throne—this is our background.

As this covenant was given, God commanded one way to mark it. “Build the tabernacle.” And later, He said it differently but with the same meaning: “Build the temple.” And again, with slight variations, He said, “Build the church.” This was the command.

▣ Introduction_ The Experience of World Evangelization
When you do this, the experience of world evangelization comes. That experience is crucial.

1. Genesis 37:1–11 / Exodus 3:1–20
I’ll introduce just two passages. In Genesis 37:1–11, Joseph dreams of world evangelization. In Exodus 3:1–20, God gives Moses this covenant and lets him experience it.

What is the greatest mystery here?

[ The Temple Within Me ]
The temple of God comes upon me. This is the first and most important point. The temple of God comes upon me.

I’ve seen many remnants, but today I spoke with Chanmi. I told her, “Don’t depend on adults. You establish your regional church. If you receive answers, others who receive answers will appear. That is the beginning. Do this wherever you go. So don’t ask, ‘How should I pray?’ That is not your level anymore. Your prayer must lead everything.” That is prayer. The temple of God must first be established within me. All remnants experienced this.

Don’t worry about depression. If you understand this—the temple of God within—you can become a much greater vessel. In fact, those with a background in shamanism may realize this faster. When the Holy Spirit comes upon me, the temple of God comes upon me.

2. Exodus 5:1–12:46 [ The Temple Before People ]
In Exodus 5:1–12:46, God’s temple appears before people and meetings.

3. Exodus 14:1–13 [ The Temple in the Field ]
Today’s passage, Exodus 14:1–13. What happens? As world evangelization begins, the temple of God appears in the field.

These three things:

The bartizan of God was established within me. When we gather like this, the bartizan of God is established. In the field of darkness, at the Red Sea, the bartizan of God appeared. This is the experience of world evangelization. You must never lose hold of this.

▣ Main Point
Three things happened.

1. Tabernacle
With this blessing, hold tightly to the things above. As you walk through the wilderness, begin with the tabernacle movement.

1) Centered on the Tabernacle
It may seem like nothing, but it’s important. Live your life centered on the tabernacle.

2) Centered on the Tent of Meeting
Since they gathered at the tabernacle, it became the tent of meeting. Live your life of faith centered on the tent of meeting.

3) Centered on the Tent
Everyone positioned the entrance of their tents to face the tabernacle. Live your life of faith centered on the tent.

This was the way and the method for traveling through the wilderness. They had no choice back then but to follow the tabernacle.

2. Temple
This later developed into the temple. Why?

1) Three Courtyards
It wasn’t just a simple structure—the temple prepared the three courtyards. For world evangelization, the three courtyards are necessary. Building the temple is for the purpose of having the three courtyards.

2) The Three-day Weekend Age
Spiritual problems must be healed. Open the age of the three-day weekend. Whether remnants, Chanmi going to America, or anyone—it’s all the same. You must enjoy this blessing at your regional church. You must show the evidence. Nothing else matters.

3) The Age of Holy Meditation
Find what is hidden through the age of holy meditation. That is the temple.

3. Church – World
Why use the term “church”? It is essentially the same meaning, but why?

1) Bartizan of the Throne
The church establishes the bartizan that saves the world. The temple is about gathering, but the church is about establishing the bartizan that saves the world.

2) Journey
The church enables us to go on the journey of the throne to globalize.

3) Guidepost
The church establishes the guidepost of the throne.

When you pray this time, hold onto this entire message. Our spiritual battle is this. The entire world is under the same three problems: the incident of Eden—people only care about themselves. The incident of the Nephilim—people only care about their own desires. The incident of Babel—people only care about their own group. Destruction is inevitable. The world is fighting under this condition, naturally falling into darkness.

At this time, you and our remnants must see these: the Passover—the blood and liberation, Pentecost—the Holy Spirit, the Feast of Ingathering—the throne. Liberation must come—Passover. True power is needed—Pentecost. True background exists—the Feast of Ingathering.

To head in this direction, your life itself must become the temple. Don’t be concerned if you go abroad and there’s no church building nearby—establish it yourself. You and our remnants are the temple. Where you are is the temple. And in the field of darkness, establish the temple. That is what was shown from the beginning.

God already showed ten miracles to Moses. What remained? Crossing the Red Sea. Look carefully—God told them to go toward the Red Sea. Look again—God stirred Pharaoh to send them. And then God showed Israel something important—to crush the darkness of the world and reveal God’s glory.

The tabernacle, temple, church—they all mean the same thing. Pray for this. Pray for answers.

▣ Conclusion
There are three things our members must resolve.

1. Poverty
The biggest problem? Economy. Poverty. You must pray. Throughout history, one nation has given the most offerings. Which nation? Israel. They have received the greatest economic blessings—Israel. It’s undeniable. Evidence exists. Israel’s entire culture revolves around giving to God. It seems unbelievable, but it’s true.

Though somewhat embarrassing to say, world economics are dominated by America, and America’s economy is dominated by the Jews. It’s a fact. If the Jews truly reshuffled things, America would be shaken. That’s how wealthy the Jews became, just as promised in the Bible.

They worship the most, they keep the most festivals—Israel. The world’s intellectual leaders? The Jews. It’s remarkable. They hold over a third of the Nobel Prizes—not in literature or peace prizes, but in scientific, evidence-based fields. Over a third belong to the Jews. This must be resolved.

2. Disease
What appears most among us? Disease. This must be resolved. Cross the Red Sea. Center your life on the tabernacle and the ark of the covenant. Cross the Jordan. Break down Jericho. Evidence already exists. The united armies attacked. God gave an unprecedented answer. The Anakim, whom everyone said couldn’t be defeated—Caleb alone overthrew them with the covenant.

This is not only the world’s problem—it’s also the church’s problem.

3. Incompetence
The third? Incompetence. The church cannot evangelize. That’s incompetence. The church is not being revived. Instead, there is only endless talk. That is incompetence. No matter how great your theories, if your work closes, if the church closes, you can do nothing. No matter how correct your logic, if remnants have no strength, the world dies. You cannot save it.

You must receive answers. You must pray seriously and restore your offering. It’s not about how much—it’s about restoration. You don’t need to say anything to others.

When did I start receiving answers? Since I was young, I’ve seen poverty firsthand. So I thought, “Something’s wrong.” Now, I am most meticulous when it comes to offering. I always prepare in advance. In both my cars in Busan and Seoul, I keep offering envelopes ready. That’s how important this is to me. Because of that, God has given me abundant material blessings and health everywhere I go. Some people misunderstand and mock me for it—but God has overturned everything.

We have continued world evangelization in good health until now. This year, leaders from the 5,000 tribes have begun to rise. History is happening.

Therefore, like David, you must stake your life and consider your lifetime calling. We must not pass down poverty, disease, and incompetence to the next generation. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ, that this answer begins in your life this week.

Let us pray.

Prayer
God, we thank You. May we experience true answers this week. Open our eyes to see properly. Let the remainder of our lives be filled with answers—answers that we experience and pass on. In the name of Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.

July School Evangelization

Prayer Journal: April 1, 2026
2025.06.28 [RT-DAY July School Evangelization]

Lecture 1 「Why Were They Sent as Slaves?」 (Ex 3:1-20)
Lecture 2 「The Reason They Suffered Under Philistia for 14 Generations」 (1Sa 7:1-15)
Lecture 3 「Why Did They Suffer From Assyria and Aram?」 (2Ki 6:8-24)
Lecture 4 「Why Were They Again Sent to Babylon?」 (Is 40:6-31)

▣ Introduction
All of our congregation members must be this way, but especially remnants must understand that the gospel itself is prayer. I’ve seen Muslims doing their fixed-time prayers. Naturally, at that level, they will experience great power. Even while walking on the street, some people lay down their mats and pray.

What would happen if you did that before God? But as I watched, I was thankful for one thing—you cannot move the world that way. So, remnants must not be deceived; they must have the correct answer. Joseph had no time to lay down a mat and pray. David, while fleeing for his life, could not do fixed-time prayer.

At the temple, they do 108 bows and their own practices in some hidden place. With that, they might experience some effects. But with that alone, they can never bring true change. Change who? Themselves.

What do I mean? I was walking down the street and saw a signboard—it was for a breathing class. I thought, of course, that’s necessary. Those who don’t know go and learn. They practice there, so it helps them. But the fact that they need to go there in itself means something is wrong. Why? They go because they can’t do it naturally. That means they don’t truly understand breathing.

You must understand this well. You may or may not understand, but we are supposed to pray in our daily lives. But to set aside special times? With that alone, true prayer doesn’t happen. It may help.

Life (Gospel = Prayer)
You must establish a rhythm in your life through true prayer. You must be able to pray anywhere. And in any situation, you must be able to see the situation through prayer. Do you understand? That is much easier. Setting strict prayer times? That’s hard. But you must be able to pray 24 hours.

Prayer must be the most comfortable thing for you. If meeting a friend is uncomfortable, that’s impossible. Prayer must be the most joyful thing for you. You must actually receive strength through it. Do you understand? That is true understanding of prayer.

And you continuously receive answers. You are not praying—your life is within prayer. You are within the rhythm of God’s working.

To get to this point, you must receive training in the three-day weekend age, the three courtyards, and the age of holy meditation.

[ Only, Uniqueness, Re-creation ]
When this takes place, something important arises—you see Only, Uniqueness, and Re-creation. Why? Because you are constantly doing this in your life. So, if you know prayer, you are likely experiencing tremendous prayer right now.

If you truly understand health, you must already be enjoying your health through breathing. Uninformed people talk about breathing techniques, but that’s simply the foundation for maintaining health. Originally, the pilgrims in church history practiced that kind of prayer. We lost all of that.

[ Bartizan, Journey, Guidepost ]
When you truly pray, the second thing follows—your bartizan, journey, and guidepost are actually established.

[ WIOS ]
Then, the three great things come: With, Immanuel, and Oneness with God. In the past, I was the one doing this—but now, I am within this system. In the past, I prayed—but now, I find myself within prayer itself.

[ OURS ]
Then the fourth great thing comes. You didn’t just see Only, Uniqueness, and Re-creation—you are actually within this system, simply inside prayer itself.

[ 300% ]
Then, wherever you go and whatever you do, it doesn’t matter. This arises—300% concerning me. 100% for the path I walk, 100% for me, and 100% for my future—thus, 300%.

1. The older generation
When this happens, remnants save the older generation.

2. The church
Remnants save the church.

3. The world – Kings
When this takes place, they save the world. They stood before kings. Not one was missing. They did not go looking for kings—they simply encountered them. The kings called for them. When they go and influence them, the 237 nations and the 5,000 tribes are saved. That’s everything.

So, prayer is enjoying the gospel. Never lose hold of this. It is enjoying that God is with me. You must actually feel this. That is enough. When it reaches this point, remnants can go out into the world. Then they can go to America, to unreached places, and to the 5,000 tribes. Of course, God will give them strength there, but fundamentally, this is the blessing the 7 remnants enjoyed.

▣ Main point
If you don’t know this (introduction), you won’t know this (main point).

1. Why did they become slaves?
Why did they become slaves? If you don’t know this, you won’t understand why they later became captives.

2. 14 generations – Suffering under the Philistines
Why, after the Exodus, did they suffer under the Philistines for 14 generations?

3. Assyria – Aram
That wasn’t the end. They continued to suffer under Assyria and Aram. That’s the third key point.

4. Babylon
Eventually, they were taken captive to Babylon. What was the reason?

1. Why did they become slaves?

1) The value of the gospel.
Because they didn’t have the answer of the gospel, they didn’t know the value of the gospel. Some even mock the gospel. “Oh, I know the gospel.” “I know Christ.” That’s mocking the gospel.

Paul said, “I cannot fathom the height, depth, and breadth of this gospel. I consider all my former pride as rubbish.” That’s the correct perspective.

Abraham struggled from the very beginning because he didn’t know this.

2) Disaster.
Naturally, they didn’t even know what disaster was. The gospel was given to block disaster—but if they don’t know the value of the gospel, how can they know disaster?

So, the superpowers became slaves to Satan. The 237 nations and 5,000 tribes became slaves to the superpowers. Israel simply served them. We must have deep forum on this.

3) Liberation.
What is true liberation? Coming out of Egypt? No. When you watch movies about the Exodus, they depict them being oppressed and then escaping. That’s accurate—but that’s not everything.

Unless you understand this, you can’t understand what the Passover, Pentecost, and Feast of Ingathering mean. Teachers and remnants must have deep forum about this.

After worship, they make small group lessons and repeat the message? Instead, forum must happen. Are the remnants truly living this (introduction)? You must check this first. Even just that becomes an answer.

2. 14 generations – Suffering under the Philistines
They continued to suffer. Even after coming out, they weren’t truly free. Why?

1) Judges 21:25—Their own perspective.
Everyone followed their own perspective. God’s plan? It wasn’t seen. Naturally, they had to live according to their own perspective. It wasn’t bad—it was inevitable.

When God’s plan is not visible to the remnant, what choice do they have? They must live according to their own thoughts. When God’s tremendous blessings are not seen, they inevitably follow people. To follow people, you must survive—so your own opinions become important. That’s how it goes.

Remnants must forum seriously. Even just forum becomes an answer.

2) 1 Samuel 7:1-15—The Mizpah Movement.
The Mizpah Movement arose at that time—the message from last Sunday. “Throw away all idols.” Naturally. The problem is they couldn’t throw them away. The problem was they went to idols in the first place—because they couldn’t receive answers.

“Return to the Lord.” That’s obvious. The Philistines attacked because they knew they had gathered. What did they do? They offered a lamb as a burnt offering.

God sent thunder and struck the Philistines. That’s why they called the place Ebenezer. If you don’t understand these three key points, there’s no point in studying.

Mizpah means bartizan. You must change your bartizan. When? When you offer the blood sacrifice—the Philistines were broken.

What does Ebenezer mean? It means the way you must go.

3) 1 Samuel 17:1-47—Victory over the Philistines.
During the time of Samuel, there was a period of victory—when remnant David arose and defeated the Philistines. Until then, they suffered continuously.

If you don’t live this (introduction), your life becomes no different from unbelievers. But it doesn’t stop there—you end up serving unbelievers. What greater curse is there? Why? Spiritual ignorance.

1. Why did they become slaves? [Spiritual plague]
Why didn’t they know the value of the gospel or missions? Because of the spiritual plague.

2. 14 generations – Suffering under the Philistines [Power]
They didn’t know what God’s true power was. You must know.

3. Assyria – Aram [Spiritual ignorance]
The most important issue of the Assyrian and Aram eras was spiritual ignorance.

1) Solomon’s mistake.
Solomon’s mistake was not a simple one. God blessed him greatly—he prospered through connections with many nations. After building the temple, God poured out blessings. Meeting Solomon became every nation’s dream.

Today, America is a strong nation, so when world leaders gather, people ask, “Did you meet Trump or not?” Back then, it was, “Did you meet Solomon or not?”

But through diplomacy, idols entered. Israel became a nation of idols.

Solomon and today’s world leaders simply don’t know.

Unless we teach remnants properly, nothing will be set right. The nation was divided—not just politically. Assyria continued to torment them—eventually taking the northern kingdom of Israel.

2) 2 Kings 19:1-35—Victory over Assyria.
There was one time they defeated Assyria—during Hezekiah’s reign.

Three kings are praised: David, Hezekiah, Josiah. The rest were spiritually ignorant. David, Hezekiah, Josiah cleaned the temple and held onto the covenant.

Upon becoming king, Hezekiah declared, “We will not pay tribute to Assyria.” Naturally, Assyria invaded with 185,000 soldiers.

That night, Hezekiah prayed with his life on the line. 2 Kings 19:35 says, “That night,” meaning the very night Hezekiah prayed. God sent an angel and struck down all 185,000 soldiers. A historical event.

3) 2 Kings 6:8-23—Dothan Movement.
They always suffered—until this time. This is what remnants must hold onto.

During Hezekiah’s time, they won by fighting. But during Elisha’s time, they won without fighting.

When remnants arise, they win without fighting. Hezekiah won without fighting. Elisha won without fighting. When remnants have strength, they win without fighting.

4. Babylon
They were taken captive to Babylon.

1) Isaiah 6:1-13
God told Isaiah, “Everything is destroyed, and even what remains will be destroyed.”
“What shall we do?”
“Remnants will never disappear.”
Those who held onto this message entered Babylon and won.

2) Isaiah 7:14
God spoke again. What was lost was restored.
“The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call Him Immanuel.”
God gave the gospel.

3) Daniel 1:8-9
Daniel held onto this covenant—and it happened.

[ Prayer 24, Prayer 25, Prayer eternity ]
What should our remnants do now? Is true 24-hour prayer possible? Prayer 25 is possible because I am not the one doing it—but how do you do it? Prayer eternity—how do you do that? You must begin to find this. Do it simply.

1. Prayer 24 – 3 Focuses
Prayer 24 is three focuses. When you open your eyes in the morning, focus for at least five minutes. The more you focus, the more you can enjoy the day. During the day, confirm. At night, prepare 300%. That’s 24. Enjoying morning, noon, and night—that’s 24.

2. Prayer 25 – 3 Settings
What happens? The Lord’s bartizan arises. From there, journey and guidepost follow. Platform, watchtower, antenna—these come from here. That’s 25.

3. Prayer eternity – 3 Answers
Eternity means having the three answers in advance.

Remnants must be made aware of this.

▣ Conclusion
Whenever the core disciples finish receiving their message, they must always keep in mind—the scattered disciples.

From That Day On

2025.06.29 Sunday 1st Service
Scripture Reading: 1 Samuel 16:1-13

※ Ask about God’s absolute plan
Today, you must ask yourself two questions. Wherever you are, ask, “What is God’s plan?” For that person, something important will surely appear. “What is God’s absolute plan for me?” From that moment, important answers begin. Today, God’s absolute plan is delivered to David. It says, “From this day onward.” Therefore, wherever we are, we must ask, “What is God’s plan?” Then naturally, your perspective changes. For that person, God’s absolute plan will appear. Even if you cannot find the answer, the question itself is important—especially in difficult times.

When I was studying—attending university, seminary, and studying—it was not easy. After marriage, while our children were in school, I was studying alongside them. Life was difficult. When I went to university, I saw so many outstanding students. But I was in a very difficult situation.

At that time, I asked God, “What is Your absolute plan? What is Your absolute plan for me? With so many excellent seminary students, do I really need to be here?” I simply asked that question, and I received an incredibly important answer. To the point that the whole nation and even the world came to know what evangelism truly is.

Also, when I was serving as an assistant pastor, I faced great difficulties. At that time, I set aside time for prayer and asked God about His absolute plan. But the condition is this: Though people fall into destruction, God desires to save us. So what is His absolute plan? From that moment, the evangelism school began, and I came to Yeongdo.

As you know, when I started in Yeongdo, I faced tremendous hardships. It was an impossible situation. At that time, I asked God, “What is Your absolute plan?” From that moment until now, God has given answers for world evangelization.

1) God has an absolute plan for you.
Today, you must ask this question. God has an absolute plan for you. You may think, “Someone like me…” But God has one for you. Most people just pass by without discovering it.

2) King Saul, who walked the opposite path of God’s absolute plan
Some people go against God’s absolute plan, though His absolute plan will be fulfilled regardless. Those people suffer for a lifetime. In today’s passage, it clearly says that God rejected King Saul. Saul walked the opposite path of God’s absolute plan his entire life—and suffered for it.

3) From the day you hold onto God’s absolute plan, hardships turn into answers
The moment you discover God’s absolute plan, no hardship remains a hardship—they all turn into answers. That’s why it says, “From this day onward.” What does that mean? From the day you hold onto God’s absolute plan.

Some may say, “I’m already old…” But Moses discovered God’s absolute plan at age 80. It’s impossible to predict. “I can’t do it anymore.” Elijah said that. But Elijah’s work hadn’t even begun yet. Some say, “I’m too sick; I can’t do it anymore.” Even at that time, God gave Paul the true thing. Today, you must surely receive that answer.

▣ Introduction: Before this day
It says, “From this day onward.” If so, we must know what came before that day. That’s the introduction.

1. We saw the situation of those who lost hold of the absolute covenant and absolute plan
What happened before this day? David knew it well. Samuel knew it well. They understood the situation of those who lost hold of the absolute covenant and absolute plan.

1) 400 years of slavery in Egypt—utterly absurd, God’s people in slavery for 400 years.
2) 40 years of suffering in the wilderness—even that might be bearable.
3) The attacks from the Philistines during the 14 generations of the Judges—after coming out of Egypt and expecting to restore the nation and evangelize the world, they faced constant attacks from the Philistines throughout the 14 generations of judges.

2. Each time, God used those who held His absolute plan
God used those who had His absolute plan—like Moses and Joshua.

At the time when the Philistines were severely oppressing Israel, there was already a king, but God clearly said today that He rejected Saul. It was a time of great hardship for Israel. Even Samuel was old. At that time, Samuel came to David. He came to Jesse’s house, and as you know, the important covenant was delivered to David. The most important thing was the announcement that David would become king—a shepherd becoming king. There, the important anointing took place. We know the details well.

3. The place where I stand is the mission field. There, I must find God’s absolute plan
“From this day onward, the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David.”

1) David’s shepherd days (Psalm 78:70-72)
As you know, the more important part today is the person of David.

(1) There, he enjoyed God’s mystery—David, even as a shepherd, wrote many psalms, prayed, praised, and worshipped God. That’s all he did.
(2) He did not lose a single sheep—many people want to do something special. But in his position as a shepherd, David enjoyed the greatest answers. Many people want to accomplish great things. But David, as a shepherd, exercised the skill of not losing even one sheep.
(3) He was prepared as a vessel fit for kingship—it’s recorded that by that time, David was already prepared as a vessel fit to become king (Psalm 78:70, 72).

Your current position is important. Some people say, “I can’t do it here.” Then you can’t do it anywhere. The place where you stand is your mission field. You must remember that. Your workplace is your mission field. There, you find God’s special plan. There, you find God’s absolute plan. Of course, God often leads us to better places. That is following God’s plan—not running away.

The place of worship today must become your greatest place. It may seem like nothing, but people don’t realize how important it is.

There was a person working in a restaurant. Somehow, they came to me, kept asking questions, and I sensed they were going through something difficult. I told them stories of some people I knew.

I know someone who, when their company collapsed in Seoul, became a person of prayer. What did they do? Sold pancakes. That person even appeared in the news. Wearing the finest clothes, using the finest ingredients, selling pancakes. With a name tag—himself as vice president, his wife as president. Using the finest ingredients for pancakes, advertising nationwide delivery. As a joke, someone from Daejeon ordered delivery—and they actually delivered it. Even with just pancakes, they succeeded. Eventually, they gave testimonies to university students and appeared on TV.

As you know, it doesn’t matter where we are. That’s important. Even as a young shepherd, David enjoyed God’s mystery. The time schedule surely comes. If you do not lose heart and enjoy the correct covenant, the time schedule will come.

2) Do not be deceived—make your current place and work 300%
I tell remnants, “Wherever you are, do not fear—make it 300%. Don’t worry about anything else.”
“What should I do in the future?” “Make your current place 300%.”
“But I have talents to develop…” “Don’t worry, just do it.” God will surely lead.

Joseph’s specialty was not cleaning. But Joseph cleaned 300%. Meaning, everyone knew it, he himself enjoyed it, and even Potiphar noticed. Potiphar said, “You are clearly not a slave. You shouldn’t be a slave. Take responsibility for my entire household.” Remember this.

It’s the same for those in business. Whatever you do—even if you deal with garbage—it’s fine. Make it 300%.

David, as a shepherd, nurtured his spiritual strength. He nurtured his skill. He prayed unwaveringly. That’s all. The rest follows.

One day, the time schedule came—the high priest came. At that time, the high priest’s appearance was overwhelming. When he appeared, the entire town trembled, asking, “Have you come with bad news? Have you come to bless us?” The high priest said, “I’ve come with good news.” Then he went to Jesse’s house and anointed David. Until then, David had been with the flock, but when he returned, he understood.

There are two things you must always remember.
First, make your current place 300%. No excuses.
Second, make your current work 300%. You know it, others know it, and God knows it. Make it so.

“Isn’t that hard to do?” Of course—but don’t be deceived. You must do it.

I always tell this to young people I meet. I shared this with that restaurant worker too.

It’s true. A man entered as a janitor and became president of the world’s largest steel company.

Years ago, an elderly driver entered a bank as a driver but became a full employee. Later, he became a branch manager.

What did he do? Nothing special. He made his place 300%.

He was a driver for the branch manager. He often waited, bored. The building frequently had electrical failures. Others ignored it, but he studied electricity. That’s what 300% means.

He studied electricity, fixed the problems, and when the bank had electrical issues, they called him. Eventually, he became an employee. But as a new employee, he was the lowest rank, sitting among the beginners.

One day, an important figure visited and thought, “This man doesn’t seem ordinary. Why is he sitting here?” Through that person’s influence, he gained trust, and large deposits followed. He became number one in the entire bank nationwide—and later was promoted to branch manager. That’s 300%. He was a person of prayer.

John Wanamaker—he was a person of prayer. Remnants must not be shaken, not be deceived—make it 300%. The rest is deception. I can confidently tell remnants this because I was in that situation. Just don’t be deceived.

3) One day, God’s absolute plan will surely be delivered to you
Without fail, one day, God’s absolute plan will be delivered to David. One day, God’s absolute plan will be delivered to you.

▣ Main point_ From this day onward

1. From the day he understood the reason
The day you understand the reason.

1) The 17 bartizans of Satan—no one teaches this. Satan has built 17 bartizans to destroy the world. What illness plagues the superpowers? The weak nations? Israel? That’s what he came to know. Samuel explained it.

2) The reason the Philistines kept attacking, the reason Israel became like this.

3) The Ark of the Covenant—Samuel surely spoke of it. When the Ark was captured, Samuel prayed, and it returned. He surely told David where it was—in the house of Abinadab.

Later, even as king, David struggled with this. Unlike ordinary people, David said, “I live in a nice house, I sleep on an ivory bed, but the Ark of the Lord is exposed to the wind.”

God blessed David just for having that heart. But when did he receive that? During Samuel’s time. From that day onward, the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon David—not just mere emotion, but God’s great answers.

2. From the day he was anointed
The second “From this day onward.” From the day he was anointed. He received the entire covenant and was anointed. Simply put, from the day God’s bartizan was established.

1) The precious covenant delivered to David—the day he understood why Satan’s bartizan must be destroyed, God’s bartizan was established. God’s most precious covenant was delivered to David—the bartizan of the throne, the journey, and the guidepost.

※ Fundamental healing—don’t worry about depression. When the Lord’s bartizan is established, it disappears. Don’t worry about your illness. When the Lord’s bartizan is established, it disappears. Even in today’s church leaders’ meeting, we said—healing the root is what matters, temporary relief is not what’s important.

2) As this bartizan came upon David, power began to arise.

3) He began to conquer the Philistines.
As you know, through David, what happened? Before, they always suffered because of the Philistines. After David came, he began to defeat them. A prime example is Goliath.

But that’s not the most important thing. What did Goliath say? “Let a believer in the Lord come out.” It wasn’t ordinary ridicule. It was a direct challenge to the Lord’s believers. How shameful!

No one dared to fight him. But David heard it and went. The important part comes there.

Goliath cursed David in the name of his gods. David replied, “I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts—the name you have insulted.” He added, “You come with sword, spear, and javelin, but I come in the name of the Lord.”

It was a war with reason. David declared, “I will prove that life does not depend on swords but is in the Lord’s hands. I will reveal that the whole world may know that the Lord is the one true God.”

He declared, “Today, the Lord has delivered you into my hand.” That came from young David. From there, the world was shaken. That time schedule will come.

※ From the day he held the absolute covenant, the Spirit of the Lord came powerfully upon him.

The day the Lord’s bartizan was established for him. You must receive this blessing.

3. From the day he realized his future mission
From the day he realized his future and mission—the third point.

1) From that moment, David’s 300% preparation began.
2) The 1,000 prayer bartizans to save Israel were established because of David.
3) He fully prepared the temple with the three courtyards to save the world.

▣ Conclusion_ Hold onto the lifelong covenant, the accurate covenant, and the covenant of creation

1) Hold onto the lifelong covenant.
Never be discouraged in life. Don’t be deceived. Hold onto the important covenant. We don’t need to do anything excessive—just hold the important covenant. God’s absolute plan remains for you.

The most important thing was the Ark of the Covenant that Samuel delivered to David. He told David how the Ark must be handled. David held onto that covenant and prayed for his entire life. Today, conclusively, hold onto the lifelong covenant. From today, for the rest of your life, hold firmly to the lifelong covenant.

2) Even when you see God’s absolute plan but lack ability, find the answer and hold onto the accurate covenant.
When you see God’s absolute plan but can’t do it yourself, what do you do? Look at the Bible. Throughout history, God’s absolute plan is clear, but often we cannot accomplish it ourselves.

The survival of the Israelites was God’s absolute plan—but they couldn’t do it themselves. At that time, Jochebed held onto the accurate covenant. The survival of the Israelite babies was God’s plan, but they couldn’t defeat Pharaoh. So she found the answer. “I can’t do it by my own strength.” She planted God’s covenant into Moses and sent him to the palace. There was no other way.

Jochebed’s action changed the world. Today, you must take that blessing.

3) When God’s covenantal Word comes upon you, the work of creation arises—the covenant of creation must be delivered.
When God’s covenantal Word comes upon you, it produces the work of creation. In your remaining life, in your work, God’s covenant of creation must be delivered. Without a doubt. The covenant of creation must be delivered to remnants.

1) The covenant of creation delivered to David—without fail, build the temple with the three courtyards to save the world. God could not help but give this to David.

2) The dry bones—God asked Ezekiel, “Can these dry bones live?”
That’s where the problem comes. We lack ability.
“Can they live?” Saying “No” is unbelief.
Saying “Yes” is fantasy. We often take one of those two extremes.

But Ezekiel answered, “Sovereign Lord, You alone know.”
God said, “Prophesy to the bones.” When he prophesied, they came to life.
God didn’t say, “Blow breath into them.” He said, “Prophesy to the breath.”

The dry bones became a mighty army.
Hold onto this covenant.
Declare that you will fulfill God’s absolute plan for the rest of your life.
May today be the day this blessing is planted in you.

In the name of Jesus Christ, I bless you. Let us pray.

Prayer
God, may Your absolute plan, which You delight in, be discovered in our remaining lives. Let today be the day we hold onto the covenant of creation. Let today be the day the dry bones come to life. Let today be the day all diseases are healed. Let today be the day all darkness and unbelief are bound. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, we pray. Amen.
