Prepare Your Future

2026.05.10 Sunday 2nd Service
Church Construction Devotional Worship
「Prepare Your Future」
(Ha 2:1-9)


Thank you. That was world-class praise.

Isaiah 6:1-13

In the beginning, God appeared to Isaiah. God appeared seated on the throne.

Isaiah 60:20-22

This Isaiah said: “The least of you will become a thousand, the weakest a mighty nation. I am the Lord; in its time I will do this swiftly.”

Isaiah 62:6-12

“I have posted watchmen on your walls; they will never be silent day or night. Do not give the Lord any rest.” Here, something tremendous about prayer has come up. I talked about prayer in the first service as well, but because people don’t understand it well, they miss it.

[ Throne ]

Your prayers are presented before the throne. Isaiah chapter 6 showed us a vision of it. It shows all the activity of the angels and so on. When you pray, that kind of thing happens.

[ Kingdom ]

And the answer to prayer is that God’s kingdom comes first. It does not start from this side. God’s kingdom comes first.

[ Work ]

Then the work of God’s kingdom is accomplished. This is prayer. So right now in this moment, when you pray and worship, if you hold the exact covenant, God’s kingdom is established. This is tremendously important. I spoke about it in the first service as well, but Joseph was dragged away in a state near death and sold. If at that moment Joseph had become discouraged, bitter, or fallen into great despair, the kingdom of darkness would have come. That too is an answer. But he was convinced that this was the path to fulfilling the dream of world evangelization. At that moment, God’s kingdom comes. The work comes later. So because people do not understand prayer well, they do not know what constitutes an answer, what to do, or what is happening. When Joseph was sold to Potiphar’s house, he had already become convinced that he would show God’s testimony there. That was God’s kingdom coming. It comes at that moment. And after that, many blessings and works followed in that house. So because we do not understand these things well, we end up not knowing what prayer is. When you worship, when you hold the covenant precisely, tremendous things happen. What kind of things happen?

[ Heaven, earth, sea, and the nations will be shaken ]

God said it: “I will shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the dry land.” Six times: “declares the Lord Almighty.”

“Prepare My Future” (Haggai 2:1-9)

My future must be inside this. If I prepare my future inside this, it is certain. It does not matter whether the answer comes or not, or when it comes. My future must be placed inside this. Let me give you a few pieces of evidence.

▣ Introduction

1. Egypt — Joseph, Moses

These things happened in Egypt. The shaking of heaven and earth and sea and the nations happened to Joseph. Simply put, world evangelization happened. And this happened to Moses as well.

2. The wilderness

And it happened in the wilderness. Astonishing things happened in the wilderness that stunned the whole world. God made it happen. He parted the Red Sea, parted the Jordan, brought down Jericho, and made the whole world stand in amazement.

3. The Philistine age

It happened in the Philistine age. It happened through two people, Samuel and David. As you know, when the Philistines went to attack Israel, He sent thunder and blocked them all. And when Goliath came to attack, David took Goliath down in one blow. This was not just an ordinary event. The events that happened in the wilderness were transmitted throughout the whole world. They reached the seven tribes living in the land of Canaan. Their hearts melted in fear. The news spread throughout the whole world. Though it may look like you are suffering, the evidence of it is that it causes the forces of darkness to tremble.

4. Aram — Elijah, Elisha, Obadiah

This event was not ordinary. It happened when the nation of Aram came to oppress Israel. It happened through three people, I tell you. Through Elijah and Elisha, and through the church leader Obadiah who supported them — three people — the shaking of heaven and earth and sea and the nations truly happened. I am giving you evidence right now. It happened in Babylon. I am telling you, this kind of thing already happened in these earlier times.

▣ Main

So then, how and why did the shaking of heaven and earth and sea and the nations happen? We need to grab hold of something very important.

1. Being within the fulfillment of the Word

The first one. Being within the fulfillment of the Word. A few people did this.

[ Building a life ]

Within the fulfillment of the Word, I must first build my life.

[ The bartizan of the throne ]

Within the fulfillment of the Word, the bartizan of the throne stands in my life.

1) Daniel

It was only a few people. Before this happened in Babylon, God had already been working through Daniel. The Word had already been fulfilled. That is how it connects. Build your life within the fulfillment of the Word. Right? Certainly.

I may not know many other things, but I took it as my mission that we must properly do the evangelism movement. So I viewed everything through that lens. Now there are many elders with that kind of prayer background, and I am so grateful. Back then, there were none. The congregation was very small and so on, so there was nothing to be done. But it was not “I will do great things here.” We need to do the evangelism movement God wants. That is why from the very beginning I looked for a large piece of land. Why? Because it had to be done. Many people introduced small pieces of land in various places, but as far as the elders and congregation members doing the work, I had no objections. So we bought one. But in my view, the church leaders had worked hard to buy it, and there was nothing wrong with that, but from my perspective it looked like at most you could build an outhouse, not a church. So in the end, we now have land that can also accommodate lodging and where children can gather to spend the three-day weekend age. We have claimed that land. If you are within the Word being testified and fulfilled, heaven and earth and sea and the nations are bound to be shaken. Right? Not according to my own will, but within the fulfillment of God’s Word. Then we, as you all know, it is not that we are trying to succeed. Being children of God is the success — what more do we need? Build your life within the fulfillment of the Word. Heaven and earth and sea and the nations have no choice but to be shaken.

2) The three young men

Look here. The three young men did this, I tell you. Even while knowing they might die. The point is, that was not the issue. These were people who knew the answer to “Why did our nation fall?” And “Why were we taken captive?” “But then why did God raise us to high positions?” They perceived it. “Whether we live or die is not the issue. God’s Word is telling us to show testimony before Babylon and the king.” They built their lives within that. History happened. For me it is not a miracle; it is expected.

3) Esther

Esther did exactly the same thing.

4) King Cyrus

One day King Cyrus conquered those lands and told Israel to return home. A remarkable thing happened. All of this is the fulfillment of the Word, prophesied. We must always remember. Immanuel Changwon Church has already been reformed and called by God to bring life to the Gyeongnam region. Right? We need to make it so that everyone in Gyeongnam hears the gospel. Do you understand?

2. Restoration of the temple

The second one. What do we need to be inside of? Complete restoration of the lost temple. This is staking my life within it. Let us together build our lives inside this.

1) The Holy of Holies

Here is the Holy of Holies where the ark of the covenant is kept. There is the Holy of Holies symbolizing God.

2) The sanctuary

Everything that symbolizes Christ is what the sanctuary contains. There is such a sanctuary. The oil, the lampstand, whatever you wash with as you enter — all of it symbolizes Christ.

3) The courtyard of prayer

Here is the courtyard of prayer where the 24 fire is lit.

4) The children’s courtyard

There is the children’s courtyard where children come and receive spiritual strength.

5) The courtyard of the Gentiles

At this point, God had already commanded the courtyard of the Gentiles to save the world. Rebuild this quickly. So that is the content of today’s message. That is why heaven and earth and sea and the nations cannot help but be shaken. It goes even beyond that.

3. Building the future

Here, important future-building is contained. Do you know what?

1) The incarnation

Liberation comes, and this is the schedule on which Christ comes through the incarnation.

2) The early church

At this time the early church is born. Coming forth.

3) The Paul team

At this time God forms Paul teams for the gospel movement — teams like Immanuel Changwon Church. All of this is included in the journey right now. It cannot help but happen. “I will shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the nations. Declares the Lord Almighty.” You must hold this covenant firmly.

▣ Conclusion — Preparing the vessel

So from now on, having received this blessing, what must we do? We must prepare the vessel. There is no need to do anything else. We must prepare the vessel.

[1] 300 places in this region

I will draw a box around this since it is important. Spread the Word movement so that everyone in this region can hear it. In the beginning I spread it to 300 places. No church building, did not matter. I spread the Word movement to 300 places. What was the standard? The people in our neighborhood first needed to hear the Word. They needed to hear the gospel at least once. Now there are many systems, but back then there were no systems. I went to a newspaper office, I tell you. Not a newspaper office, actually. A newspaper distribution branch, you know. A branch in Yeongdo that distributed newspapers. Everyone read the newspaper back then. I sent 13 questions to the people living in Yeongdo. They were inserted into the newspaper and went into every home. That is how the Word movement began. Exactly three years later, a thousand disciples arose. It had absolutely nothing to do with my own strength. The power of the Word is this great. Start with this first.

[2] Gyeongnam — 1,000 bartizans

Establish 1,000 bartizans in the Gyeongnam region. Just pray this prayer. There is nothing else to do. “Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness.” Everything is already there.

[3] 3 courtyards

Prepare the three courtyards that contain my life, my memorial, and my future. First and foremost because it is what God wants — the three courtyards. It must become my memorial. I need to have a future. And keep praying. If you keep praying, the answer comes. In some ways you do not even need to learn from other people. Just keep praying directly and the answer comes.

[4] The three-day weekend — concentration

On this land, truly open the three-day weekend age that brings life to the people. What will you do? There is no need to think about that. Why? Because Remnant right now do not even know how to pray. They need to, do they not? There are many sick people right now, many without strength. These people need to find strength, do they not? There is no need to ask what you will do. Asking that would be strange. Simply put, practice the concentration that Christ modeled. Christ was crucified on Friday and rose on Sunday. This is not just ordinary talk. Open this here.

[5] The holy meditation age

In the end, because the age of mental illness has come, we must go out armed. Especially our Remnant must go out armed. What do we arm ourselves with? The holy meditation age. We go out having prepared the holy meditation age that heals the world. God has no choice but to answer. So heaven and earth and sea and the nations will be shaken. God is saying He will do that. Simply put, He is saying He will accomplish world evangelization. What would He shake heaven and earth and sea for? He is saying He will accomplish world evangelization. If heaven shakes, earth shakes, sea shakes — what happens? The whole world knows. He will bring about this astonishing history.

So even now you must be in prayer. So to what degree must we change ourselves and how must we teach the Remnant? When something happens, they do not know prayer. So they live according to their own thinking. Limits will certainly come. Not only do limits come, but things do not go well. Because it is according to my own thinking. And people who do have some faith, when a problem comes they pray. That is better than nothing, but that is not enough. You must see the problem from within prayer. It is not praying when a problem comes; you must see the problem from within prayer. Do you know what Remnant’s problem is? Prayer separately, study separately. Then it becomes too hard to live. You must study within the power of prayer. That is the difference of one sheet of paper.

Joseph did not pray because things were too hard. Joseph already had the secret of prayer. He set out with this. Whatever he encountered, it was fine. This is what is important. Worshipping ordinarily and worshipping from within deep prayer are completely different throughout the whole day. Then something tremendous comes out of it. You must be doing this even now.

[ Two lifelines ]

You must hold on to them. Prayer. And slow breathing that allows you to recover all your health. Two lifelines. Do not make it complicated; simply breathe in a way that enables prayer. Let me give a simple example. When you look out at a beautiful landscape or environment, your breathing becomes peaceful. Right? Even just looking at the distant sky and the horizon makes you peaceful. When you are very angry, you cannot breathe peacefully. There is a tremendous difference. So those two simply need to be connected together into prayer. I have expressed it this way: there are only two things I can do at will. Thinking. I do that at my own will. I turn this into prayer. There is one more thing I can do at will. Breathing. Apart from those two, there is nothing else I can do at my own will. So I am saying I will give my prayer and my breathing to God. Slowly.

So in the mornings when you open your eyes, you must always do this. Especially our elders need to be healthy, so when you open your eyes in the morning, you must unconditionally move about peacefully. We do not have time to go off to a corner somewhere to pray. While moving about, breathe long and deep. When you sleep with your mouth open, your mouth and lungs are already greatly damaged. They need to recover. Your brain cells are frighteningly breaking down. They need to recover. By praying in the morning. No need to set a fixed time. Just continuously. Even now when I interpret, I breathe in deeply. When it is finished, slowly. It is tremendously helpful to your health in spirit and body. That is morning prayer.

Then what kind of prayer do we do during the day? Conversational prayer. Conversational prayer about everything you see and hear with God. Not speaking out loud. It is a heart-to-heart conversation between God and me. Right? It becomes tremendous. You become peaceful.

Then that is done and now it is evening. In the evening you are making a masterpiece. Making what? You make 300%. Making 300% is much easier. What does 300% mean? On the day I graduated from seminary, I prayed to God. This is not a trash bin — why are there so many seminary students? There are many. But why are churches declining? America is funny that way. There are an enormous number of seminaries. Yet churches are declining. Where is there such a strange thing? So I began preparing for evangelism. I read every single book on evangelism — and they were not the answer. The answer came from here (the Bible). This is 100%, I tell you. So how good is that? Other people, being in good circumstances, go out to play, go to spend money, go abroad. Already doing that as students. I was not in those kinds of circumstances. But that is not a sad thing. Right? Where did I go? I went to the field. Every day. I saw many things. That is field 100%. Then what needs to happen from here? So I prepared a system capable of world evangelization for that purpose. That is 300%.

From the moment I took on the church, it feels like 40 years have passed in about four months. God has opened the doors of the world and now people of many ethnicities are beginning to pour in. 300% is much easier, I tell you. Prayer also 300%. In the morning you recover. During the day you confirm. At night you find answers. Right? How comfortable and good is that? Especially because of this, our church leaders need spiritual strength and health. Only then can world evangelization happen.

“I will shake the heavens and the earth, the sea and the nations.” I have said it multiple times. “Declares the Lord Almighty.” Let us pray.

Prayer. Thank you, God. Let us recover what God has given us. Let us be within the fulfillment of the Word, let us be within the sanctuary construction that saves the church, and let my life be in the place of building the future. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

I Am Doing a New Thing

2026.05.10 Sunday 1st Service
Children, Parents Sunday
「I Am Doing a New Thing」
(Is 43:18-19)


▣ Introduction

1. World churches are closing their doors, but 237-5,000 ethnic groups are still waiting for the gospel.

By now our missions conference has almost concluded and everyone has returned to their respective countries. Right now churches in America are closing their doors. In Europe, it has been going on for a long time. 237-5,000 ethnic groups are waiting for the gospel. What should we do at a time like this?

2. The greatest gift parents can give their children is the power of prayer that enables them to survive in any environment.

Today you need to take with you something that gives you certain answers to experience. Also, today is Children’s Sunday and Parents’ Sunday. That too is important, but we must receive answers in order to be able to show filial devotion. The greatest education parents can give their children is to make them people who can pray. They are going out to be defeated in the world. No matter where they are, they need the strength to survive on their own.

3. The Word given to Israel in despair

Israel has now fallen into despair. When you fall into complete despair, what do you do? It is completely beyond comprehension… The temple has been destroyed and Israel has been taken captive. This is the situation they have encountered. At this time God gave them an important answer for receiving answers. There are parts that need to be understood first.

1) Do not remember the former things or ponder the things of old.

“Do not remember the former things. Do not ponder the things of old.” Is that possible?

(1) A person stuck in the past

A person stuck in the past absolutely cannot succeed. They cannot receive answers either. Right? For some reason — it is not even embarrassing — couples who fight so much appear on TV to try to resolve it. They must have been desperately frustrated to come out. From my perspective, these people are hopeless in two ways. Both of them say the exact same thing. “I have done nothing wrong; my husband is the problem.” The husband says, “No, that one is the one who is wrong.” This keeps going. And there is another characteristic: they are completely trapped in the past, constantly bringing up old things. I am confident that when those people go home, they will fight again.

(2) A person with mental problems

When you actually see a person with mental problems, they are completely gripped by the past, telling the same story over and over, trapped in it. So “Do not remember the former things. Do not ponder the things of old.” But is this possible? We stop remembering old things and stop thinking about them? Is that possible? Because this is not possible, many people fall into wounds. Many people fall into limitations. Some even have spiritual problems come. Some people, having been so wounded, have children who are in conflict.

But today an important Word has come out. It does not mean you should be unable to remember the past or should not think about old things. It gave the answer right after that.

2) I will do a new thing.

“I will do a new thing.” Right? You must remember this. A person who holds on to the new thing God is doing can overcome the past, the former things. This is extremely important. A person who does the new thing God is doing — no matter how much of a problem the past and former things become, it is fine. In fact, those things become a springboard. Right? “I will do a new thing.” What new thing will He do? “I will make a way in the wilderness. I will make streams in the wasteland.”

3) I will make a way in the wilderness. I will make streams in the wasteland.

Tremendous. It means He will completely bring life. “I will make a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” Because this is a sure covenant, do not think about the past. Do not remember the former things. This is what it means. This is tremendously important for us.

▣ Main — 5 sure covenants

How can we receive this blessing, what must we do to receive it? Today you simply need to hold five sure covenants.

1. You must know what true prayer is.

This is the first one from Isaiah. A person who knows what true prayer is can receive this blessing. What is prayer?

1) Isaiah saw the God seated on the throne and the heavenly hosts in the midst of prayer (Isaiah 6).

In Isaiah chapter 6, God appeared to Isaiah from within the throne. The angels were flying up and flapping their wings and so on. At that time God said, “Whom shall I send?” And he said, “Send me.” God said no. He said He would leave a stump. That part is right, but that is not what is important actually. That is God’s plan. When did this begin? This is the part that began while Isaiah was praying.

2) Prayer connects to the throne.

Your prayers are imprinted firmly on the throne. Right? That is prayer. When John the apostle looked, all your prayers are carried before the throne. They are placed in that bowl. The angel does all the errand work. This is prayer. Your prayer connects with the throne. When you hold the covenant today, God’s kingdom comes. Right? Then the work of God’s kingdom is accomplished — I explained that today. “Rather than you, I will raise up Remnant.” Right? “That is the holy seed.” When you hold the covenant today, if you know what prayer is, history will certainly happen. You must know what prayer is. There are many people who do not know what prayer is.

I spoke about it this morning. When King Saul was thinking about how to kill David, that is where the kingdom of Satan came. This is important. Right? David, hiding and running to the very end, said, “Because the Lord is my shepherd, I lack nothing.” At that moment God’s kingdom comes. Right? You must know the fact that your prayers connect with the throne. Then a way will be made in the wilderness and streams will flow in the wasteland. You must hold on to this absolutely today. Why do we worship? What is an answer? During the time of worship, God’s kingdom comes from the throne.

3) During the time of worship, God’s kingdom comes.

If you do not know this, pray your whole life — however much you pray, you will not know. What you see with your eyes later is the result. It means the work of God’s kingdom has been accomplished. And so worship is important. When Joseph was being dragged away as a slave, what did he pray? “This is not going to slavery. This is the path of world mission.” Right? That is where God’s kingdom comes. So Satan is still alive today and always follows around. When King Saul kept trying to kill David, an evil spirit came upon him. The Lord seated on the throne appeared to Isaiah. If you know what prayer is, history will certainly happen.

4) What you see with your eyes comes a little while later.

What you see with your eyes — that comes a bit later. That is not what is important. Right now, in the moment you are worshipping, in the moment you are holding the covenant, when you pray, God’s kingdom comes. At that moment the errands of the Lord’s angels start going out. Unbelievers do not know and cannot believe it. Our life is in heaven. Right? Enjoying that heavenly throne is prayer. God showed this to Isaiah first.

2. You must know the gospel that breaks the power of darkness and reverses destiny.

The second one. You must know the gospel that binds the darkness and reverses destiny. What came forth at this time?

1) Isaiah 7:14

In Isaiah 7:14: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.”

2) Isaiah 8:3

It came up again in chapter 8, verse 3. What is this saying? It is speaking of the astonishing message that completely shatters the darkness and reverses destiny.

3) Genesis 3:15

In Genesis 3:15: “The offspring of the woman will crush the head of the serpent.” This is no ordinary statement. It means that Jesus Christ will break the authority of Satan. Then destiny is turned upside down.

4) John 1:12

“To all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.” It is speaking of that blessing.

5) Exodus 3:18

The day the blood of the lamb was applied, they were set free. Right? The gospel is tremendous.

If you know what prayer is, and what the power of the gospel is, a way will be made in the wilderness and streams will flow in the wasteland. You must hold on to this and go.

3. You must hold on to the power of the Word.

The third one. It is when the Word comes.

1) The Word of the Lord came to Jeremiah

“The word of the Lord came to Jeremiah a second time.” That is the end of it, right?

2) The word of God came to Moses

“The word of God came to Moses.”

3) The word of Galatians 3:28 came to Lincoln

There are many leaders here who will serve our region — city council candidates and the like — attending worship, and the word of God came to Lincoln. Right? The word of God in Galatians 3:28 came. And so he came out with the emancipation of Black slaves.

4) The word of Isaiah 40

What does Isaiah 40 say? You need to hold this covenant and go. Only then does history happen. “Go up to a high mountain and proclaim.” What to proclaim?

(1) Isaiah 40:8

“The grass withers and the flowers fall, but proclaim that the word of the Lord stands forever.”

(2) Isaiah 40:18-20

“Is what was made by hands a god?” It appears in Isaiah 40. “People make something and bow to it — is that a god? Some make it large, some make it of gold — what kind of god is that?”

(3) Isaiah 40:27

And then what did he say? “Why do you complain, Jacob? Why do you say, Israel?” What is it? “Why is my way hidden from God? Why does God not hear my complaint?”

(4) Isaiah 40:28-31

In Isaiah 40:28: “Do you not know? Have you not heard? The everlasting Lord God, who rules to the ends of the earth, does not grow tired or weary. He gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. Even youths grow tired and stumble and young men fall; but those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength.”

No other strength can save us. We must remember this. You must know what prayer is. You must know what the gospel power is that reverses destiny. That is Immanuel. Once you know that, the Word comes. The Word is the eternal, living Word. That is what was explained today in Isaiah.

4. Arise and shine — evangelism and mission

What is next? The fourth thing comes out. You must know what the light is.

1) Arise, shine

“Arise, shine.” That is what evangelism and mission is. “Arise and shine.”

2) The glorious light of the Lord

More importantly: “The glory of the Lord rises upon you.”

3) Your children will return.

“Just shine this light and your children from the nations will return to you. Your daughters from distant lands will return. They will come bearing silver and gold.” It speaks of complete restoration. Light.

In some ways, even if busy people do not go out to evangelize, the door of evangelism opens. Right? If you know you are light. Then those who are in darkness will see the light and come.

I once said something pretty pointed to a military chaplain I was close to. “Just what are you doing as a chaplain?” I asked. Because we were close I could ask. “Hey, do you not know the gospel for the soldiers committing suicide in the military?” Those foolish things. Why would a soldier commit suicide just for doing something wrong in the military? Why would someone commit suicide just because someone is bullying them? No. This person has been tormented by spiritual problems even before going to the military and cannot endure it. The fact that there is no chaplain or military minister who can help them — that is the truly sad thing. Right?

Arise and shine. It is simple. Normal working people at the office, going around making noise and doing evangelism? No need to do that. One day, people will come knowing who you are. Right? Because light saves people. That is when you can speak to them. “Arise, shine. Those in darkness will return.” If you hold this covenant, a way will be made in the wilderness. Streams will flow in the wasteland. Right?

5. You must know the mission of the watchman.

One more last thing to know. Who are you? That is the question. You are watchmen. You must know that and go. A watchman is someone who keeps watch 24 hours.

1) One who does not give the Lord rest

“Do not give the Lord any rest, day or night.” That is a watchman.

2) One who opens the highway

“Open the highway.” There needs to be a highway for traffic to come.

3) One who raises a banner for all peoples

“Raise a banner for all peoples.”

These are the five. Those who understood these words are the ones who came forth. Right?

▣ Conclusion

When Isaiah spoke these words, most people cursed Isaiah. Some even killed Isaiah. Such spiritually ignorant people exist. Who held this prophecy of Isaiah as a covenant? You know.

1. Daniel

In Babylon, Daniel.

1) He held this covenant and made a resolution.

Daniel held it and made his resolution. What happened? A way was truly made in the wilderness and streams flowed in the wasteland. Right?

2) Three kings bowed to Daniel.

Three kings bowed to Daniel. Right? King Nebuchadnezzar. King Belshazzar. King Darius. Those kings even praised the Lord and exalted Daniel. Why? Because he held the covenant. Remember this.

When a desperate problem comes, you must know what prayer is — prayer that moves the throne. Prayer is the place where God’s kingdom comes first. Right? The kingdom where the Lord seated on the throne sends his angels and messengers to run errands comes first. And then what? You must truly know the gospel that reverses destiny and shatters the darkness. After that the Word comes. Right? After that, what? Now you shine the light. And so He established you as watchmen. New congregation members are watchmen who save their family lines. Missionaries are watchmen who save nations. Right? That is how they were established. But everyone missed this covenant.

2. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego

There were those who held it. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego. Right? This is the prophecy about Babylon, I tell you.

1) High positions

As you know, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego were placed in high positions. They did not think they had succeeded. They knew the reason. “We are captives right now. This is not success. I am now seated in a high position. This is not luck.” They had to see it correctly. There is the work of God that I must do here. Here is the covenant, as prophesied, to make a way in the wilderness and make water flow through the wasteland.

2) They did not bow before the idol temple.

At that time, they made an idol temple and had all the senior officials bow to it. Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego naturally refused. So it showed. The king summoned them. “Why did you not?” Because they were such outstanding individuals, the king said, “I will give you one chance.” “I will give you one chance, so bow just once. When you hear the sound of the trumpet, hear it and bow.” At that moment they answered: “Your Majesty, we do not need to give an answer to what you are saying.” That is what they said. “The Lord will rescue us.” And then they said an even more fearsome thing afterward. “Even if the Lord does not rescue us.” So imagine how insulted the king felt. So he threw them into the fire. He threw three people in, but four were moving around inside. The one — a messenger of the Lord sent from the throne — was protecting them. When he saw this, what did he say?

3) The king was moved and made a way in the wilderness so that people could be saved, and streams in the wasteland.

The king was moved. A way in the wilderness — a way in the wilderness so all the world could go. Streams in the wasteland so people could be saved.

You are the ones who receive this answer, I tell you. Right? You must hold it firmly. You must first know what prayer is. So you must know what the gospel is. Without the gospel, darkness cannot be changed. So Daniel — you all know. Daniel was the one who held this covenant firmly, and Esther was one who held it. A few people. The numbers need not be many. A few people held the covenant. They opened a highway in Babylon. Right? Through that Babylon they made streams flow in the wasteland so that many people could receive life. This must actually become visible to you.

Today Seoul, Ulsan, and Changwon are all worshipping together. Distance does not matter. You must hold the covenant properly. Parents’ Sunday, Children’s Sunday — those are not so important. If I am told to write a birthday, I write it. Some date. I do not know if I am coming or going. Is it that important? Right when I came to this church it was 1987, I think. Very few congregation members. It must have been my birthday. They had a test of faith among themselves. So I told my wife at home: why did you tell them about my birthday like that? And I said: never do a birthday again. That sort of thing is not necessary. I have kept that promise to this day. Nothing needed. A while back, someone said “Let’s do a seventieth birthday.” That sort of thing is not necessary. What is so important about it? Women seem to think it is very important. It is not very important. We need to be set free. Right?

Right now people are dying quickly; we need to make a way in the wilderness. People are dying in the wasteland; we need to make streams flow right now. I ask that you hold the covenant firmly. If just one person holds it, answers keep coming for a lifetime. Right? When I was young, something was imprinted on me. “Why is my father always so sick?” That was imprinted on me. “That is not how it should be.” Right? And why are people always suffering because of money like that? Cannot even do evangelism. That is not right. I thought it was wrong. And the answers to that have kept coming ever since. It is not difficult, is it? I will make a way in the wilderness, make streams flow in the wasteland. It is God’s promise. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, let us go to the field today with important answers. Let us go to our families. Let us open a way through the blocked wilderness of the whole world. Let the water of life flow to those dying in the wasteland. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

Spiritual Surgery that Heals the World

2026.05.03 Sunday 2nd Service
World United Worship
「Spiritual Surgery that Heals the World」(Ac 19:8-20)


This is the first time that Immanuel Church in Korea and New Life Church currently in Hong Kong and the whole world are worshiping together. Because the whole world is watching, the praise that was sung earlier was world-class praise. People are mostly ignorant of the gospel, and because they are also ignorant of prayer, they miss it. Why did Jesus speak this way?

Matthew 6:10, 32-33, Acts 1:3, Acts 19:8
When they asked to be taught prayer, He taught: “Pray for the kingdom of God to come.” That is Matthew 6:10. In verses 32 and 33 He spoke this way even further. Like someone who has not received salvation, “Do not say give me this, give me that.” He said that. “God knows all,” He said. “Pray this way (verse 33). Seek His kingdom and His righteousness and you can receive everything.” And then at His last pulpit, Jesus explained for 40 days about the works of the kingdom of God. In the text we read today, it says He explained boldly about the kingdom of God. Very important things come out from here. Between prayer and answered prayer there is a little difference. A time difference.

[Bartizan, Journey, Guidepost]
When you worship and pray and the covenant is right, this (bartizan, journey, guidepost) is completely formed within us. This is being formed within us even now during prayer. This is the true answered prayer that comes first.

[What becomes]
After that, what comes about through God’s work is the answered prayer. We fill ourselves with God’s things and direct this prayer toward God. Answered prayer comes accordingly. Those who know this pray at fixed times. Those who know this pray 24. Because this is the bartizan, journey, and guidepost of the throne, the power is immense — it is the power by which world evangelization is possible. Apart from this, world evangelization cannot be done. And so Jesus said it is “only.”

Spiritual Surgery That Heals the World
So what was today’s title? Spiritual surgery that heals the world. Now this is something different from the above. We continue this prayer and there are times when we gather in a special way.

[Acts 1:3, 1:14, 2:1-4, 17:1-2, 2 years]
That is Acts 1:3. They kept praying for 40 days. What would happen? If you prayed for 40 days doing nothing else — what would happen? Even without trying to heal, healing would occur. Then holding that covenant they came down and prayed earnestly for ten days. It was a complete surgery. And then in Acts 2:1-4 a power like wind and fire appeared. And even before Paul said this, he had many important schedules. Even when he went to Thessalonica, he concentrated for three Sabbaths. Today Paul’s team concentrated for three months and a complete transforming work occurred. And then for two years he spread the Word movement. So demons were cast out, the sick were healed, and remarkable things happened. This kind of time is necessary. Why must it be this way?

▣ Introduction

1. Foundational Power
To do world evangelization, foundational power is needed. It cannot be done with other power. Foundational power is needed. Because the power of the throne and this answered prayer have completely come upon me, foundational power cannot help but arise.

2. Foundational Healing
From this point, foundational healing takes place. Because the root is fixed and fundamental power arises, everything else follows.

3. Foundational Ministry
Paul had this power and did ministry with a foundational mission. Since Paul had this power, he said “other things are not needed.” “I graduated from the top Jewish school but that won’t do,” he said. Even having been trained under Gamaliel, the foremost leader, “that won’t do,” he said. On the contrary, because of that he had become arrogant and suffered even greater loss. It is not bad for us to study a great deal. It is good. But with that, world evangelization cannot be done. Spiritual things cannot be done. So the more one advances, the less spiritual knowledge there is, and therefore the less spiritual power there is.

▣ Main_ 1,000 Bartizans
Is establishing 1,000 bartizans an easy thing? How does one establish them? Paul received three things of answered prayer. At Tyrannus a complete work occurred — and this was even greater than 1,000 bartizans.

1. [8] Spiritual Movement
It says in verse 8 that he “explained boldly about the kingdom of God.” Simply put, he conducted a spiritual movement. There is a second thing to look at carefully.

2. [Separately] Disciple Movement
He “set apart the disciples.” This word is also important. He conducted a complete disciple movement. If you find the right disciples, would only 1,000 bartizans arise?

3. [2 Years] Re-creation Movement
He did it for 2 years. What does this mean? A complete re-creating Word movement took place. So the sick arose. The movement for saving the world is a spiritual movement. A disciple movement for those who understood that word. What we do is not success. It is a re-creation movement. What we speak of is not the trivial matter of food, clothing, and shelter. It is a re-creation movement that changes the world. Because this part is missed, people don’t know well what answered prayer is. They don’t know what prayer and answered prayer are. In fact, they don’t really know the gospel either. The gospel is that in Christ this power (bartizan, journey, guidepost) is completely manifested. This must not be missed right now. Because it doesn’t work, too much time just passes by. That is why it is called spiritual surgery. They did it on Mt Olive for 40 days, but those people won’t do. Because they are already older and already imprinted. This must be completely overturned and changed. The painful part must simply be surgically removed. So a work occurred, and the ministry Paul did following that is what we read. So this must be remembered.

1. [8] Spiritual Movement
1) Bartizan of the throne within me
The bartizan of the throne must be established within me. And when the bartizan arises, the journey and guidepost naturally follow.

2) Place — Kingdom
In the place I go, the kingdom of God comes to be present. That is right?

3) Darkness — Works of the Kingdom
From that point darkness is broken. What is that? The works of the kingdom of God take place. Now. That is why we worship. If you worship carelessly on Sunday, you die. If you can’t have a successful Sunday worship — what will happen? That means you have grabbed hold of something else. That is the problem. Not knowing is one thing, but because they don’t know, because they don’t know this blessing, they are holding onto something else. So the church tries every possible thing to revive itself. Pitiful. It cannot work. Eventually everyone spiritually dies and all the doors close. And then it gets passed to others.

2. [7 Points] Disciple Movement
Here you come to meet the precious 7 points. That is right. You come to meet the disciple God has prepared. There is no use meeting a disciple God has not prepared.

1) Synagogue
So he went to the synagogue. To meet disciples.

2) School
After meeting disciples, he went completely into the school.

3) Field
And then for 2 years he spread the Word movement so that the Word would appear in every field. The work cannot help but take place. This power did not come upon me alone — it was transmitted.

3. [2 Years] Re-creation Movement
And so finally the re-creation work took place.

1) The Sick — The Incurably Ill
The sick, even the incurably ill — these people began to be healed. The power of the Word is fearsome.

2) Healing of Dark Culture
More importantly, the completely dark culture was healed — it came out there. The books of idol worship were all burned. That neighborhood had lived that way. What about now? America is completely immersed in the three-organization culture. It is the same. Go to Japan. The entire neighborhood is worshiping idols. Spiritual problems cannot help but come. The people doing missionary work in Japan have a great calling. We had the Asia conference and if you go to places like Taiwan — everything is idols. In places like China, forget idols — they completely prevent the gospel from entering. The place that is best in the world at analyzing how people move is China. China now has all the answers. People from other countries in Korea — they can’t do evangelism. Because they don’t do it. In China, the most dangerous adversary is the upper room. These people know we are having our missions conference and have already been investigating every single person who comes out. China will receive blessing. When the gospel enters China, China can save the world. That is right? China’s numbers are extraordinary. When the gospel fully enters China, the whole world will come alive. This (dark culture) will be healed. A re-creation work. You must believe.

3) Rome
Finally — I didn’t read all of it — but in verse 21 it says “I must also see Rome.” It connects this way. What does it mean? The 237-5,000 tribes will be saved.

▣ Conclusion

1. Acts 19:21
So the important remaining conclusion comes out. All the works happened, but that is not what is important. We must also see Rome. It is for doing this that Paul was now arrested.

2. Acts 23:1-11
This is chapter 23. So Paul was interrogated. He had no guilt yet they kept making it seem as if he did. At that point God said to Paul, “Be bold. You must testify in Rome also.” And so since at that time they were a subject nation of Rome, the final trial had to be held in Rome. Simply put, Paul had now appealed. So he had to go all the way to Rome.

3. Acts 27:10-24, 25
That is Acts 27:10-24. He was going to Rome to stand trial. There were 276 people on board. Apart from Paul, 270 people were on board. That ship would go all the way to Rome and stand trial before the emperor Caesar. Paul was a man of prayer. “It seems this ship will encounter a storm as it goes.” He said that. The intention was to take the schedule and other things into consideration, but nobody believed what he said. Everyone said “Let’s go to Phenice and rest.” Phenice seems to be a very good sightseeing location. They said “Let’s go there.” Paul said “It is dangerous now.” Now who could believe that word?

People believe what those possessed by demons say, but they don’t believe God’s Word. Strange, isn’t it? They don’t believe the Word of the Bible. If someone talks about some unusual fortune-telling, they believe that. Human psychology seems to be that way. I saw in the old days — there were crackers, you know. You cracked the cracker and something like “your zodiac sign is such and such today” was inside. Actually there is no need for zodiac signs. I am a tiger sign. Without even knowing it, my eye goes to tiger. People are like that, I tell you.

So Paul spoke, but nobody believed Paul’s word. So the official leading that ship was uneasy, having heard that word. The centurion named Julius — he was uneasy, so he asked the captain: “That person says they will meet a storm — will it be all right?” He said it would be fine. Still uneasy, this person asked the ship owner. Since the ship owner was the owner, he asked the owner. “Will it be all right?” He said it would be fine. So everyone headed toward Phenice and suddenly a storm arose. How strong were the waves that hit — they hit so strongly you couldn’t tell night from day. They say it continued for about 14 days — how terrible… that is death. Finally this ship began to sink. As it sank, people started crying out in anguish. Each would have their own religion, so they kept praying to it. No use. So that the ship would not sink further, at the captain’s order they threw out all the things inside. No use. Only one thing remained. Death. Only that remained.

At this point Paul, who should have been on the deck, went down below and prayed. “That night the angel of the Lord stood beside me and spoke.” He tells those people: “Paul, do not be afraid. You must stand before Caesar,” he said. “People, take courage.” He testified this, they heard it, and these people’s hearts became calm. Only then did they hear Paul’s word and feel calm. “Is that so.” At that point in verse 25, the waves became calm. This news will certainly have been transmitted to Rome. Unless Caesar was a fool, he would have received this report. The trial was over. Such immense things remain. You must absolutely know — at this time of prayer, at this time of worship — what happens.

Revelation 8:3-5
It reaches the throne. In the first service today what was seen — move the Lord day and night. This will certainly happen.

Matthew 6:10
And this happens. Not only is your prayer received at the throne, but from that point God does the remarkable work of establishing the kingdom. Eventually this happens.

Acts 1:3
The works of the kingdom of God are accomplished. Now. Those who have held onto the 7·7·7 bartizan, journey, guidepost — this happens during the time of worship. This happens during the time of praying alone. When I pray holding onto these 7·7·7, every single time I become so happy and earnest. Why? For you and me going through this land, what is most needed? The power of the throne. That is right. We are going through a difficult world — what strength do we go with? We must go by the journey of the throne. We cannot do world evangelization with what we have. Therefore it must be the guidepost of the throne. I do this prayer. So for me, praying at fixed times has never worked well. So I just start as soon as I open my eyes. Immediately. For several hours. I do this too, and when I open my eyes in the morning I start comfortably from whatever comes to mind and pray. So the prayer that revives strength and everything is done in the morning. Then during the day it is all confirming blessings, confirming answered prayers. And at night, since I need to prepare messages, the night time is also important. It is a time of completely obtaining answers. A time of completely making 300%. That is how it comes out.

I bless you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ that day by day you will have increasingly strong power and do world evangelization. Let us pray.

Prayer
Thank You, Lord. Please work on the servants in Asia and throughout the whole world. Let the work of creating not a simple prayer but the background of the spiritual throne take place. Even in this time, send the angel of the Lord that was sent to Paul, and let the Word and power of God be transmitted. Let us gain even greater strength in the remaining time, and let us be the Lord’s people who see God’s grace during the six days. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

The Watchman’s Prayer

2026.05.03 Sunday 1st Service
World United Worship
「The Watchman Prayer」
(Is 62:6-12)


▣ Introduction_ The Watchman’s Prayer

We are currently holding the world community worship service with Hong Kong as the host. We must hold onto the covenant of receiving answers. We have finished the missions conference — what covenant of receiving answers should we hold onto?

  1. The Watchman’s Prayer The watchman’s prayer. A watchman is a person who guards the city.

1) New members — watchmen who save the family line There will be new members here. “I am a watchman who saves the family line.”

2) Church leaders — watchmen who save the region Our church leaders: “I am a watchman who saves the region.” And so the seventy were appointed.

3) Ministers — watchmen who establish 1,000 bartizans Our ministers: “I am a watchman who establishes 1,000 bartizans.”

4) Pastors, missionaries — watchmen who save the world And the many missionary pastors: “I am a watchman who saves the world.” This kind of prayer must begin.

  1. The watchman — a person who does 24, a person who waits for 25, a person who leaves behind eternal things A watchman is a person who does 24. A watchman is a person who waits for 25. A watchman is a watchman who leaves behind eternal things.
  2. A watchman must have a bartizan of power. It is to save those who are on the journey, and to erect a monument to the one who made the guidepost. So a watchman must have a bartizan of power. A watchman does not stand alone on the road — there must be a bartizan. And so this watchman saves those who are on the journey. This is a watchman who erects a monument to the one who made the guidepost.

▣ Main_ The Watchman’s Mission

So then, can I really do this? This is what must first be confirmed. Can I really establish 1,000 bartizans? It sounds like a dream… There is that distance, you see. What must be done? When I came to Yeongdo at the end of 1987, I came having prepared to do world evangelization, but looking at our church it was absolutely impossible. I received grace through that very thing. When I visited the churches in Seoul, there were many outstanding people. Some congregations had as many as ten celebrities among their members. Some churches had conglomerates. But when I came to Yeongdo, none of that was there. I realized something profound. “That’s right! I am doing what is in the Bible completely. Not what conglomerates do, not what celebrities do, but what is in the Bible.” It is fine even if there is no one. Even if there is no church building, it is fine. Simultaneously we spread the Word movement to hundreds of places. In just three years, 1,000 bartizans were established. So that answer must first come out.

Can I do this, truly. Can I save the family line, that is the question. How, though I am a church leader, can I save an entire region? How, though I have been sent out as a missionary, can I establish 1,000 bartizans? “I have no answered prayers in my life of faith.” Is there anyone who thinks this way? What must be done? You must hold onto it.

  1. The watchman who receives and delivers the covenant given by the Sovereign First. There must be a covenant given by the Sovereign, the Ruler. This watchman is not just any watchman. It is standing as a watchman having received the command handed down by the king. This is not merely a person who guards a house. This is a watchman who receives, delivers, and keeps that covenant that has come down from above. What exactly is that?

1) Isaiah 6:1-13 God seated on the throne — raise up the Remnant. In Isaiah chapter 6, God appeared to Isaiah. God seated on the throne appeared. Beside Him the angels were beating their wings and praising — that is what the text says. At that time God spoke words. “Raise up the Remnant.” That is right. This nation has utterly fallen. “It will fall further, so do not worry — raise up the Remnant.” In our Korean translation it reads as “stump,” and that is where I found this word.

2) Isaiah 7:14 Immanuel is coming. And He said something even more important. “One is coming whose name shall be called Immanuel.” Immanuel is coming, that is right. That is Isaiah 7:14.

3) Isaiah 40:6-31 The eternal word of the Lord, those who wait upon the Lord And He gave evidence. “Go up to the high mountain and speak. So that all may hear. Go up on the rooftop and speak. So that all may hear. Say that I, the Lord, my word shall stand forever. Are the idols you have made God?” And then what does He say? “Those who wait upon the Lord shall rise up with wings like eagles.” He gave a covenant.

4) Isaiah 43:18-21 I will do a new thing. And what did He say? In Isaiah chapter 43: “Do not remember the former things. Do not think about the things of old.” How can one not think of them? There is only one way. “I will do a new thing.” And then what? “A road will appear in the wilderness. A river will flow in the desert.” He gave an extraordinary covenant.

5) Isaiah 60:1-22 Arise and shine. And then: “Arise and shine. The light of the glory of the Lord has come upon you. The nations shall return. Your sons and daughters shall return bearing silver and gold.” This is the watchman. You understand what this means. You are not just anyone — do not do anything else. Only a watchman who delivers the flow of God’s Word. A watchman who hears God’s Word and delivers it. A watchman who hears the king’s words and delivers them to the people. It is simple. When God’s power comes, there is no telling what will happen. When God works, even when you have fallen it becomes a blessing. That is right? You must hold onto this firmly.

  1. The watchman of prayer who moves the throne — do not let the Lord rest day or night (He is with you). Second. The watchman who moves the throne. When this watchman speaks, even the king must listen. The watchman who moves the throne — what does that mean? “Do not let the Lord rest day or night.” As though putting the Lord to work: “Do not let Him rest.” You as watchmen move the throne. That is right? What kind of watchman does one become? A watchman who receives the covenant and delivers it. The second thing is being a person of prayer who moves the throne. “Do not let the Lord rest day or night” — this means He is with you day and night. When you do 24, the five powers are restored.

1) 24 — the five powers and authority are restored. You see a bartizan that others cannot see. When you do 24, authority is restored. When you pray 24, you come to see a bartizan that others absolutely cannot see. When the elders are doing business, they come to see what others cannot see. Joseph was like that. Because he did 24. That is the watchman being spoken of. To put it simply, plainly — it means the watchman of the Word, the watchman of prayer. That is the second one. That is right?

2) 25 — the work of the throne becomes visible, the kingdom of God is achieved before you go, after it moves the work of the kingdom of God takes place. When you know 25, the work of the throne becomes visible. The kingdom of God is certainly established before you go. After you move, the work of the kingdom of God takes place. This is the prayer that moves the throne.

3) Eternity — a monument remains. If you find the answer called eternity, a monument remains. You must remember this. Hong Kong is difficult? That is not so. Africa cannot be done? That is not so. When God works through the power of the throne, it surpasses human strength.

  1. The watchman who holds the secret that moves the world — if you have this power, you move world evangelization. Third. One who holds the secret that moves the world. That secret must be there. What is the secret that moves the world? It was stated simply.

1) Prepare the highway — the three courtyards, the three-day weekend age, the holy meditation age “Prepare the highway.” That is right. The one who holds this secret power will do world evangelization and will move it. This is the watchman’s mission. It must not be missed. What is the highway? We make the three courtyards where people of many ethnicities can come, the sick can come, and the next generation can come. When do we do this? It must be done during the three-day weekend. And the whole world is dying from mental illness. Open the holy meditation age, make people who can pray, and send them out.

2) For all peoples — the power to save 237, 5,000 tribes, TCK And what else? “Lift up a banner for all peoples.” That is the highway. Who are all peoples? It means the power to save 237 nations. It means this power to save 5,000 tribes. It means the power to save TCK. That is all peoples. Looking at Hong Kong, starting with Blessing there are many remarkable people. Those young adults will save TCK and NCK. God promised that.

3) Lift up a banner — plant the banner of Christ that will bring down the forces of darkness. Make all peoples come. “For all peoples” — do what? “Lift up a banner.” What is this banner? It speaks of the banner of victory. It speaks of the banner of Christ. In the old days when Rome was conquering the world, after conquering a place they would do one of two things. They would send a leader from Rome to govern it. Or if there was someone who understood, they would establish a local leader from within. When establishing, there was something they did. They would place the Roman banner right at the very top. From that day they had to be under Roman rule. Rome — that is how it conquered the world. We are not speaking of that. Plant the banner of Christ that will bring down the forces of darkness. Make all peoples come. Plant the banner of Christ there. You must know that you already all have it.

※ When we believe this covenant, when we believe and pray, history is made. So before enjoying this covenant, you must believe. Change happens when you believe. “Wow — this is really true.” When you believe, history happens. When you believe and pray, when you pray day and night, that is when history happens. This answer has been given.

▣ Conclusion

  1. Resolution — the watchman who receives the living and active Word and delivers it, the person of the highest prayer who moves the throne, the person of the highest evangelism who prepares the highway Today all our disciples in Asia must make a resolution. “I will become a watchman who receives the living and active Word and delivers it. I will become the person of the highest prayer in my village who moves the throne. I will prepare the highway in order to do the highest evangelism.” So it comes out simply. Because it must be actually practiced. What is it? It is holding onto the living Word. Delivering that is what a watchman does. That must happen. Praying 24 day and night, you come to see the remarkable secrets of God. Delivering that — the watchman. There is no need to succeed. It does not need to be done. You are a person who prays and moves the throne. Then everything is already prepared.

And last, what is it? Being the watchman who is best at evangelism. Does it not need to be made known? When a watchman sees a dangerous area, it must be reported. When a dangerous situation comes, it must be reported. So the highway must first be prepared. And all peoples must be made to come. That banner must be given to all peoples so that they plant the banner of Christ’s victory.

  1. The watchman of prayer who saves the family line, the church leader is the watchman who saves the region having prepared 300%, the missionary is the watchman who establishes 1,000 bartizans How does one save the family line? I always talk about this, don’t I. It is our mother’s prayer. Then it saves. To a remarkable degree. Truly not missing a single day of prayer. There are no words for it. It is completely changing our entire family line itself. You must hold onto that. A person called Bill Gates prepared 100% in professional software during his university days. He prepared 100% of the system connecting all the fields on-site. That is field reality. He built a company to do these two things. That is future system. He completely overturned the world. And it works. What kind of watchmen do our church leaders become? Watchmen who save the region having prepared 300% — that is what this means. That alone is enough. It is fine if you cannot do other things. And so all the missionaries must first establish 1,000 bartizans. Those three things mentioned earlier — do those. Then God will bring the people He has prepared and everything along with them.
  2. When you hold onto this covenant precisely, God will come to where you are bearing every blessing. Let me conclude. How firmly does one need to hold the covenant? The three covenants just now — hold onto these precisely, and just as God brought everything to where Joseph was, so it will be. That is the true answer. That is right? That is the true answer. God overturned history according to where Moses was. According to where David was. According to where Paul was, He moved all of history. It is certain. God will come to where you are bearing blessings. That is the conclusion. It is certain. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that this week will be a time of receiving great grace. Let us pray.

Prayer. Lord, we are now leading the world community worship service in Hong Kong. The whole world is worshiping together. Please give this blessing of the watchman to all the saints who are hearing and confirming the Word. Let it begin from today. In the name of Jesus Christ we pray. Amen.

Take the Authority of the King, Prophet and Priest to the Field

2026.04.26 Sunday 1st Service
United Missions Festival Sunday
「Take the Authority of the King, Prophet and Priest to the Field」 (1 Peter 2:9)


Thank you. There is the Word of God that even an unsaved person may read. However, there is the Word of God that only saved people see. The blood covenant, and various things like these, are things only saved people know.

1. The Last Words Jesus Gave to Those Who Will Evangelize the World (World Mission Conference Message)
The last words Jesus gave right now were given to those who will evangelize the world.

1) Promise to be with us with all authority in heaven and on earth, the authority of the throne, and the authority of the name of Christ
So he said he would be with us with all authority in heaven and on earth. Because that is what is needed. He will be with us with the authority of the throne. Pray in my name. He promised to be with us with the authority of the name of Christ.

2) Turning points — those prepared coming from 15 nations (the upper room of Mark), those scattered (Antioch), the hidden card (Rome)
And a very important turning point appears. The Word is fulfilled in the upper room of Mark, and there 15 nations had gathered. Those prepared, those made ready. And then a decisive turning point comes. It begins in Antioch. Those scattered. Later they go all the way to Rome together with the team of Paul. It was called the hidden card. In fact, all three of them are hidden cards. Mission is an enormous secret and an enormous work of history. Well then, what I have just spoken about is the message of this World Mission Conference.

2. How shall we convey this?
Now, how shall we convey this? Now we must grasp the final covenant.

1) We must convey Christ accurately.
The most important thing is to convey the gospel accurately. We must convey Christ accurately. If that is not done, it is a serious matter. Who is Christ? Is that not something we must convey?

(1) The true King who completely broke the authority of Satan
He is the true King who completely broke the authority of Satan.

(2) The true Priest who blocks disaster
Disaster cannot be avoided. He is the true Priest who blocks disaster.

(3) The true Prophet who leads us to God
We cannot be saved on our own. And so he is the true Prophet who leads us to God. The combination of these three words is what is called Christ. Telling people this is the gospel. If this is not told, it is of no use at all.

2) Ambassadors of Christ — Christ entrusted this work to us and departed.
And so Christ entrusted this work to us and departed. He entrusted it to the missionaries and departed. And so we are ambassadors of Christ. There was a time when our country was extremely poor. There was a time when we lived like those 5,000 tribes. There was a time when people wore straw sandals because there were no shoes. There was a time when there were no cars, and oxen and horses pulled carts. I grew up seeing that. But our country was oppressed by powerful nations on the left and on the right. China interfered, Russia interfered, Japan interfered — they told us to do this and that. And they did as they pleased with our country. When our country was in a wretched state, that was when the missionaries came in. The missionaries came in and did two things. They preached the gospel. And the other thing — they let the world know how wretchedly Korea was being treated. Those people who came to Korea and left said something. In common. Korea is a country that will evangelize the world. And they all said it in common. Whether those who came and died, or those who left — they all said Korea is a country that will evangelize the world. And so he sent us as ambassadors of Christ.

3. How should we act as we go as ambassadors of Christ?
Now, how should we act as we go as ambassadors of Christ? The answer to that was given today.

1) Proclaim this light — because Christ came as light and people are dying in darkness
Because Christ came as light, we are to proclaim this light. Here it importantly says to proclaim the light. This means to convey it. This is the part you must now hold onto and go. Because people are dying in darkness, proclaim this light.

2) Prophesy the Word. Prophesy life — because I have no ability to give the Word and life myself
Ezekiel, he said. Can these bones live? Ezekiel answered well. He did not answer, “They can live.” He did not answer, “They cannot live.” He said, “The Lord the Lord can do it.” Then God said this. He did not say, “Preach the Word.” He did not say, “Breathe life into them.” He said, “Prophesy the Word.” “Prophesy life.” You and I have no such authority or ability to preach the Word, to give life. There is no need to be discouraged. It was never there to begin with. Prophesy in the name of Christ. Proclaim it. Just do this. You must have conviction.

3) Proclaim the light in the name of Christ — because Christ finished it and told us to pray in his name
No need to slaughter an ox. Pray in my name. No need to slaughter a sheep. Pray in my name. No need to offer a sacrifice. Pray in my name. It has been finished. And so in the name of Christ we proclaim the light.

▣ Introduction — The Reason
We must first know the reason.

1. People completely caught in Satan’s 12 strategies, the church deceived by Satan’s 5 strategies
People right now do not know. Because the world has not taught them — it is only in the Bible. It has not been taught. They are completely caught in Satan’s 12 strategies. They cannot escape. The church too is deceived by Satan and caught in 5 strategies of Satan. Jesus even said to someone who seemed to believe well that there is a bartizan of Satan inside you. That is astonishing. Also, they are serving the devil who appears completely like a god of this world, one who loves the world fully. And he said that to someone who seemed to believe well. “Your father the devil.” They believe in the god of this world more than in God. Even going to Cornelius’s house to eat — why did he eat there? This is the church. “No, even if you are saved, you still have to keep the law of the Jews.” This was something Peter said to Paul. Why was that? The church does not follow the atmosphere. The atmosphere had become that way. You must be careful. The church does not follow public opinion. Public opinion had become that way. When asked why he went to Cornelius’s house, Peter should have rebuked it loudly. Is that not right? Did not Christ say to go to all peoples? Did he not say he would be with us with all authority in heaven and on earth? We are all in darkness right now.

2. Spiritual ignorance, spiritual incompetence, spiritual problems — proclaim the name of Christ, the light (Acts 4:12).
Everything is there, yet they are spiritually ignorant. Everything is there. Things will continue to develop going forward. There is a great deal, yet there is only no spiritual strength. Spiritual incompetence. And so they are caught in absolutely unsolvable spiritual problems. Proclaim the light there. Because it is not your own strength, proclaim it in the name of Christ. It is not the missionaries’ strength. Proclaim it in the name of Christ. There is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved. Christ — this word is no ordinary word. Should we not know Christ in order to preach the gospel? If you know Christ, darkness collapses. Is that not right? I know President Lee Jae-myung. Is that not right? President Lee Jae-myung does not know me. Why? Because we have never met. We have never been connected. Knowing someone like that is not really knowing. Knowing each other, talking with each other, helping each other — that is knowing. The fact that Christ is the answer for you — Satan knows it. He also knows when it has not happened. God knows it even better. And so we proclaim it.

3. The whole world is becoming a psychiatric ward, a battlefield — so proclaim Christ who came as light, and prophesy (John 1:11).
Why? The whole world will become a psychiatric ward. The whole world becomes a battlefield. It is darkness, darkness. Jesus prophesied in the last days. Only the Bible gives the precise answer. As to why things have become this way. And so in John 1:11, Christ came as light. Proclaim this light. Prophesy this light. Darkness collapses. Darkness is invisible to the eye. It is pitch black. No matter how much you try to get rid of it, it does not go away. It does not disappear through effort. Darkness disappears immediately when light enters. Spiritually, this darkness disappears immediately when the light of Christ shines.

※ Because you are ambassadors of Christ, on the path you travel, the authority of Satan, disaster, and hell collapses.
You must carry this as you go. King, prophet, priest. On the path you travel, Satan will be bound. Why? Because you are an ambassador. On the path you travel, disaster collapses. The authority of that hell is bound. That is certain, is it not? Convey this light.

▣ Main — To whom must it be conveyed?
Then let us enter the Main and look briefly. How, and to whom must it be conveyed?

1. Shine this light on me first. — Pray so that the 7.7.7 prayer comes upon me
First I must shine the light on the darkness within me. On myself. I pray most of all for the 7.7.7 prayer to come upon me. What does it mean for it to come upon me?

1) Genesis 1:3 — the light of creation
In Genesis 1:3, as the light of creation. When you receive Christ, as the light of creation. There was a person who was about to die from mental illness, and the moment he received Christ, it was finished. That person had only been a believer for a few days. It ends right away. People who have been like that too long cannot receive Christ easily, so it does not end. In fact, they cannot receive him. And so the light of creation must shine upon me.

2) Isaiah 60:1-12 — the light of restoration
It is Isaiah 60:1-2. The light of restoration shines upon us. This has come upon me. Who is Christ? He is the one who comes to me as the light of creation. Christ is the one who comes as the light that restores my incompetence.

3) Matthew 5:13-16 — the light of identity
Matthew 5:13-16 — he restored to us the light of identity. Identity. He did not say “become the light of the world” — he said “you are the light of the world.” You must believe this. When you believe, darkness trembles. When you do not believe, darkness does not fear you at all. You are the light of the world. And so the remnants think: ah, I have within me the light of God, of Christ, for the world. Knowing that, just quietly pray at school and see what happens. People who are to be saved will come looking for you. If that does not happen, go visit a very famous demon-possessed fortune teller. The moment they see you, they will know immediately. This light is frightening. Because you have heard it so many times, you do not know it. A person who was in that darkness just received the name of Christ — a work of history has happened. In a remote place, someone is just praying, whatever it is — they are trembling, the person is completely strange. Christ has been proclaimed to that person, and a work of history has happened.

4) 1 Peter 2:9 — the light of authority
Today, 1 Peter 2:9 is the light of authority. Take this light of authority given from above and go. First of all, to me.

2. Proclaim this light to the world.
The second one. Now proclaim this light to the world. What kind of world?

1) Proclaim to those afflicted with the Nephilim disease (Acts 16:16-18, Acts 3:6, John 17:11-12).
Proclaim to those afflicted with the Nephilim disease. Paul commanded, “In the name of Jesus of Nazareth, I command you, you impure spirit, come out!” — and it left. Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” Pray an important prayer. The answer will certainly come. People do not believe in the enormity of that name. It was called the name of the Lord. John 17:11-12.

2) Shine the light of Christ on those afflicted with the disease of the 3 groups that began in Genesis chapters 3, 6, and 11.
Those afflicted with the 3 groups disease are still continuing in it right now. The 3 groups disease right now is not the fault of the 3 groups. It originally started in Genesis chapter 3. It is not America’s fault. It started in Genesis chapter 6. It started in Genesis chapter 11. And it is continuing right now. Shine the light of Christ there — that is what I am saying. To the world.

3) Proclaim the light of Christ in the name of Jesus Christ to the 5,000 tribes plunged into darkness through idol worship.
And there is more. The 5,000 tribes who have come to be in darkness through idol worship are completely in the dark. I do not know about now, but when I went to Taiwan, there were idols in every home. Those in Taiwan, check for yourselves. I gathered about ten children and asked those who cannot sleep properly, who are sleep-paralyzed, who are tormented by demons to raise their hands. It was 8 or 9 of them. Among the 5,000 tribes there is no need to even say it. It is serious. Nothing else works there. Shine the light of Christ. Proclaim that too. It is simple. In the name of Jesus Christ.

3. Spread this light to the next generation throughout the whole world.
Also, spread this light to the next generation throughout the whole world.

1) Create three courtyard. A great road will open.
And so the instruction is to create three courtyards. Going forward, when three courtyards are established, a great road will open.

2) Create the three-day weekend age and change what has been imprinted.
And so create the three-day weekend age and quickly change what has been imprinted. They cannot even pray. They do not even know how to pray. It must be changed quickly. Evangelism? They cannot do it. It must be changed. 70% of churches in South Korea are financially dependent. They are not doing evangelism. Churches in America are closing. Disasters are abundant. It must be changed. The three-day weekend age. All that needs to happen is to change what has been imprinted. Cancer treatment — is it possible? Yes. Just change what has been imprinted. Mental illness treatment — is it possible? Yes. Just change what has been imprinted. And so quickly open the three-day weekend age and change our children. Dozens of called workers from Incheon are coming to our church to worship, and I met them briefly today. Tell the church, tell the administration office — without worrying about anything, freely bring children, train them in the three-day weekend age, and do it freely.

3) Create the holy meditation age so that they can survive wherever they go.
Our children must survive wherever they go. The holy meditation age. Do these three things, I am saying. This is conveying the light there. Darkness — there is nothing else to it. If caught by Satan, can anything work? There is no way to avoid disaster. No matter how powerful a nation, there is no way to avoid it. As for undeveloped nations, there is no need to even mention them. When you look closely, the background is terrifying. Proclaim the light. Prophesy this light in the name of Jesus Christ.

▣ Conclusion
Let me conclude.

1. Every day receive and every day convey the bartizan, journey, and guidepost of Christ.
Going forward the age of remote work will come. This means working from home. Also, an age of non-face-to-face delivery and delivery services will come. Things will continue to develop professionally. Also, an age of non-face-to-face finance will come. What will happen? Spiritual problems will become serious. It is unpredictable. We cannot even know which jobs will disappear or change. And so missionaries and our remnants — every day receive the 7.7.7 through prayer. What will happen? Amazing things will occur. And so convey this bartizan of the throne, the journey, and the guidepost. That is conveying the light. Because the light is Christ. Every day receive and every day convey the bartizan, journey, and guidepost of Christ.

2. With this, find the 7 points.
With this, find the 7 points.

3. Unconditionally make it 300%.
And what else? Unconditionally make it 300%. Especially the remnants. Our young adults and church leaders are busy. Everything must be done at 300%. If it cannot be 300%, do not start. A laborer came to Korea to earn money. A foreign laborer. I roughly checked how much he received — they said 700,000 won at that time. He did not spend it and saved it up to go back to his hometown. This person received the gospel. Having received the gospel, change began to happen. He changed all his thinking completely. He enrolled in RTS. Why? Ah, I must know this gospel. He prayed and worked so hard that he speaks Korean better than I do. And evangelism fruit is happening enormously right now. Because it is a Muslim country, they arrested him intending to kill him. He was not afraid at all. He contacted me at that time. “Pastor, I am all right. Do not worry. I am okay with dying. Bangladesh needs Christ.” That is astonishing. People like this are rising up right now. I quietly thought about it. Wow, can someone really become like that under such bad conditions? Even those with everything in place cannot do it, yet these people have nothing in place. That is what is called 300%. That person prepared 300% in Korea. Returning to his own country, a work of history happened.

※ Imprint the authority of heaven and earth in your soul, the authority of the throne in your life, and the authority of the name of Christ in your future.
Imprint the authority of heaven and earth in your soul. Imprint the authority of the throne in your life. That comes first. Imprint the guidepost of the throne and the authority of the name of Christ in your future. This year many thankful works of history have happened. Including our church, many church leaders gave offerings and prayed, and much fruit has come about. Because of the war, airfare has risen several times over. Even so, more called workers came than last year. As I watch what God is doing, I am truly grateful and give glory to God. Missionaries, as you return, I hope you will be the key figures who absolutely establish the bartizan. Then you absolutely travel the journey. Then, even when you return, you establish the absolute guidepost that continues. I will pray.

Prayer. We give thanks to God. Let us enjoy what God has given us. Let us restore what Christ, who saves the world, has given us. We pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

 

Christ’s Final Mission

2026.04.26 Sunday 2nd Service
「Christ’s Final Mission」 (Ac 1:1-14)


I am grateful. This is the last mission of Jesus Christ.

「Last mission of JX」
Now you must go back and do ministry, but there are a few things to think about. We hold onto the Word and pray — but how is the Word to be fulfilled, and how should prayer be answered? That is something to think about a bit. The answer is to be within the Word and within prayer. How the answer comes is something God will do. There is always an order. The throne, the kingdom, the works of the kingdom. There is an order. The scale and speed of it is something God regulates. Many people know quite a lot that is not the gospel. Something that cannot happen — it truly is a miracle — they say it happened that way. Of course, the parting of the Red Sea and the parting of the Jordan are things that cannot happen, yet they did part. It is the same with academics. “I am so fortunate that God made things go so well for me.” That is a grateful thing to say — but that is not it. You must be 300% prepared. That is what God has given. It is the same with your health. There may be times when you feel okay and times when you feel better, but we must heal the root cause. Experiences? Do not try too hard to have them. Not many people have succeeded that way. If God gives you an experience, then have it at that time. But to be within what is being accomplished is the best thing. Many people think they must receive a special answer, but to be within what God is working out is the best thing. People who truly enjoy answered prayer are unrelated to whether an answer comes or does not come. Because the Lord is my shepherd, I lack not even a single thing. There is no stopping that. I will die if I die. That is the real answer. Even just understanding the Word brings history. And so the greatest answer is for me to be within the blessing of what is being accomplished that God gives. This is to say that I am within what God is doing. There is only one urgent thing. I must make effort, and there is only one urgent thing. The only urgent thing is to save people who are dying in destruction if we do not go now. How to do our work well — that too is important, but the important thing is to do well ordinarily and then save the urgent person. Think carefully about this — saving those dying in destruction is the urgent thing. Nothing else is urgent. My affairs God is in charge of. That is how it has been for us throughout our lives. Making what I do into 300% is faith. That is the answer. Joseph had expertise. He saved the field. He saved the future. That is 300%. David honed the highest skills. But that was not David’s purpose. David’s purpose was future world evangelization. So, while in his situation, he prepared many things — skill, praise, poetry. And so in a certain sense, believing is the answer.

Introduction

1. Authority of heaven, Earth
Christ said he had all authority in heaven and on earth. He said he would always be with us. At that time two kinds of people appeared. Those who doubted appeared, and those who worshiped appeared. Faith — that is the answer. That is the blessing. Jesus made a promise. Since world evangelization cannot happen by mere strength alone, he gave all authority in heaven and on earth completely. He promised to be with us. This Word coming upon me is the answer. This time many missionaries are receiving answers and going.

2. Authority of Throne
Since it cannot be done by our strength, he promised for forty days that he would be with us and give authority through the power of the throne. This itself is the blessing.

3. Authority of The Name
By that name before which darkness trembles. Believing this is the blessing. If you do not believe, it is of no use at all. We have nothing urgent.

[Main] Bartizan Journey Guidepost
Christ erected the bartizan for us. As I prayed, it became 7 bartizans. Christ explained the journey in full. And he explained guideposts here and there — Jerusalem, Samaria, the ends of the earth. This is the urgent thing. Nothing else is urgent.

1. Best Time
So from now, have the best time of your life. What kind of thing is the best time? I have thought about it.

1) 1:3
It says that Jesus spent forty days explaining the works of the kingdom of God — then could we be indifferent to that? What is this? I had this time. And that was forty years ago when I was an associate pastor. The church? No gospel. Fighting every day. Making enemies of one another. Even using God’s Word to kill people rather than to save them. That is why it was such fierce fighting. At that time I was thinking wrongly. I went early in the morning for forty days to pray, taking notes as I prayed. I prayed for God to quickly send me somewhere good. I prayed that I could not stay in this kind of church. That was my prayer. After doing that for forty days I realized it was a wrong prayer. Do what you must do now. It was utterly foolish. I was missing everything I had to do right then and worrying about the future, wondering what to do. At that time an epochal answer came to me. In the midst of all the fighting, the church members reported to the senior pastor. “Pastor, our church has many people with a calling.” I will raise up those with a calling. I will make those with a calling into evangelists. Let us start an evangelism school at our school, at our church. I will do the training. The pastor said okay. There truly were many people with a calling. I had thought there were only people who were fighting, but once I held what God wanted, truly called people emerged. With that blessing I went to Yeongdo and started with the evangelism school there too. When pastors gathered at first, I started with the evangelism school. When called workers emerged overseas, I started with the evangelism school. It is the best schedule of my life. That is what I think. Until when? Until the mission becomes visible. The answer is important, but until the mission becomes visible.

2) 2:1(Always)
The second one. How did this answer come? “When the day of Pentecost had fully come.” That is how it came. Like a fool I asked why he had sent me here. The Jews spent all their time on three festival events. Looking at what happened in the early church opened my eyes. The background of salvation, the Holy Spirit, and the throne — it is day by day. More than that. Always. I came to realize that. Someone like me with no ability. This ability must always be in me. And what can I teach the congregation? If I go into any specialized field, I have to learn everything from you. Then what am I supposed to teach? The answer came. This is the real answer. And then at the ninth hour of prayer — it just poured out.

3) 3 concentration, 24, 25, 00, 2:9-11, 2:17-18, 2:41, 2:42, 2:46-47
And so I started first with the 3 concentrations. When you wake up in the morning, do not set a long time. Then you cannot pray. Just continuously. Because you go around with your mouth open, you breathe with your lungs when you wake up in the morning. And your brain has already sustained much damage. It must be healed. For several hours. Breathing deeply for several hours, you must restore everything through all kinds of prayer. Your lungs are shrinking. The hormones in your body are changing. And in the daytime, what is it? The people you meet are a time of blessing. When I look at people through the eyes of evangelism, that person looks extremely precious to me. An elder looks precious. That is the blessing of the daytime hours. When I look at someone who has done wrong, I do not see them with hatred but with pity. I think I hope that person will go straight and do well. An elder must be able to look at a pastor and see something precious. When pastors look at church leaders, they should not look at their shortcomings but see their strengths and what is precious in them. Among what we hear, see, and say, tremendous blessings are contained. Then at night 300% comes out naturally. It does not come out because you have been looking wrongly. Joseph — if he goes to Egypt gnashing his teeth the way you might, it is over. Those who pray know. This is the schedule going to fulfill God’s absolute plan. Pastor Shin Joon-ho’s father was a very important person, but he passed away as he was old. He passed away not long ago. I could not go to pay my respects. When Pastor Shin Joon-ho came, I did not give him a condolence gift. I gave him a congratulatory gift. Congratulating him on his entry into the kingdom of heaven. Because? He lived enjoying the throne and then went to heaven. Blessings are contained within every moment of life. Clerks fighting among themselves and doing that kind of thing — that is complete rubbish. Where is there time to fight? You absolutely must do this. Because you truly must save the world. Conflict and such things — there is none. Did David have conflict because of Saul? As I prayed like this, finally 24, 25, eternity began to come into view. Then look at this completely — in 15 countries, the people God has prepared are visible. There is nothing to worry about. The future is visible. “Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams.” And then 3,000 disciples rose up. From that point worship comes alive. Those whose worship is not coming alive need to be a bit concerned. “Following the apostles’ teaching” — this means following the Word. How precious those people seated in front are — I am so grateful. “And fellowship” — when I think about being saved, I am just grateful no matter how many times I think of it. “Breaking of bread” — and then there is nothing that cannot be done through prayer. “Devoting themselves to prayer.” That is worship. Right now I am talking about worship. From this point the Word is fulfilled day by day. Day by day in the temple, day by day in homes.

2. Field(works of God)
The second one. Finally, when you go to the field, you can see God at work.

1) 3:1-12
Before, you looked but could not see. It is when these eyes are opened that you can see. What? The lame man sitting at the Beautiful Gate of the temple. He was there before too. After receiving the fullness of the Holy Spirit and grace, when Peter opened these eyes, he could see. There is a neighborhood that all the people of Jerusalem hate the most. That became visible.

2) 8:4-8
Samaria. Right now it sounds ordinary to you, but that Samaria is a region of absolute sworn enemies to the Jerusalem Jews. He went there. While going along the road, the Spirit of the Lord — this begins to open up. The Holy Spirit of the Lord came to Philip.

3) 8:26-40
The Ethiopian eunuch had been prepared. Even right now, while holding Sunday worship, we must worship within prayer. You must not worship while your mind is on something else. What kind of worship is that? It is just chanting.

4) 13:1-12
And then look at this. God had prepared a figure called Paul. And what kind of field did these people see? Everything was completely prepared. They saw the field of a shaman — because of this an entire town was plunged into darkness — they saw that.

5) 16:6-40
Looking at Acts chapter 16, the door of evangelism was blocked for Paul. To someone with eyes to see the field, even this is not being blocked. To Macedonia. Going there too, he went looking for a place of prayer in the field. There he met Lydia. After meeting Lydia and the mission home starting there, he cast out the demon from the demon-possessed woman. The merchants sued because of that. A work broke out in the prison. Verse 40. You must see what God is doing at work in the field. Believing in God? That is easy. Not believing in God? That is impossible. I have been saved? That is natural. I have not been saved? That cannot be done. Where does this get you?

6) 17:1-9
He was led to a region where the most important road to Rome passes through. To Thessalonica. That is how God led him. And then he met a complete guardian who would help Paul do mission for his entire life.

7) 18:1-4
Corinth. The couple Priscilla and Aquila. The moment these people met Paul, they staked their lives. On the path our missionaries take, figures who stake their lives to raise up evangelists will appear. This is not all there is.

3. Future(prepare)
It is about seeing the future. It is about seeing what God has prepared. This becomes visible.

1) Romans 16:25-27
And so when people came flooding in as in Romans chapter 16, God gave what was completely hidden. Hidden people. Hidden things. The hidden card that came out in the message this time.

2) 17:1, 18:4, 19:8
And look at this. To the synagogue. The future is there. Because the future is in the children.

3) 28:30-31(AD.70)
And what happened? In the last chapter of Acts, chapter 28, no one could hinder the Word of God on the path Paul traveled. The Word cannot be stopped. The gospel cannot be stopped. At this time these things happened. Now do you understand why he went into the synagogues? Now do you understand why the church leaders of Romans chapter 16 were prepared? At this time Israel collapsed. The remnants now began to scatter to the world. At that time the 7 points emerged. The remnant, the pilgrim — all of it comes.

Conclusion

1. Time of Evangelist
Have the time of the evangelist. The time of gaining strength. Eyes that change the field. You cannot change the field itself. Eyes that change the field. Only then does the answer come.

2. Today
Now having the time of the evangelist, do not miss today. You arrived at Potiphar’s house as a slave — create the greatest masterpiece there. Do not miss today. While David was a shepherd boy, he found all the blessings there. Praise, poetry, skill — he found them all.

3. Now
Do not miss right now. Right now. At any time. What kind of place is this? This is not a place where members of the National Assembly hold meetings. Assembly member meetings are precious too, but this is not that kind of place. The ambassadors of Christ who must evangelize the world are gathered here. Enjoy it right now. Right now. When discouraging thoughts come, gain strength right now. When you are about to be shaken, gain strength at that moment. Not tomorrow. Right now. That is how we go. You need not worry about the future. God has the future prepared. World evangelization will certainly happen. It has never once been stopped. Even if everyone fails to do it, Luther alone being raised up means it happens. When Israel suffered seven disasters, through the remnants, through one or two people, everything was restored. The gospel has never been interrupted. And so every day you must gain strength. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ. I will pray.

Prayer. We give thanks to God. We thank you for calling us as ambassadors of Christ. Let us serve with the posture of a servant. Let us be devoted to saving the whole world. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

 

The Starting Point of Missions

2026.04.19 Sunday 2nd Service
237 Missions Committee Devotional Worship
「The Starting Point of Missions」
(Jn 21:15-18)


Our World Missions Conference begins this week. Because it is so important, you must follow and enter into the Word. You must look at how it all began.

「The Starting Point of Missions」
Today, a portion appears where Jesus emphasizes something with a sense of urgency. Rather than rebuking Peter three times, He asked, “Do you love me?” and repeatedly told him, “Feed my lambs.”

[Future Generations / Posterity]
This is because if you do not hold onto the covenant, it will have a tremendous impact on future generations. It feels as though Jesus is speaking with urgency rather than leisure.

[Prayer (Spiritual Summit)]
Ultimately, we must raise our Remnants so they can pray. The most important thing for us is that if Remnants know prayer, they will truly become “Spiritual Summits.” Because the future generation is a tremendous hope, Jesus spoke of this key. Unless we do this, we cannot establish the 1,000 watchtowers. Also, if we do not know this, we cannot achieve world evangelization. It’s easy to say, but we can’t even go to the 237 nations. To be more conscientious, we can’t even catch a glimpse of the 5,000 unreached people groups. Jesus gave us the key: “Feed my lambs.” He asked three times, “Do you love me?” Though the words used were slightly different, they carry the same meaning. So Peter answers, “Lord, you know.” That’s right. His previous denial of Jesus Christ was out of fear caused by the atmosphere. It wasn’t his true heart. Jesus knew that too. That is why He sought him out and, unlike you all, did not ask about his weaknesses. He only asked if he loved Him. When Peter said he did, Jesus told him to feed the lambs. That is the only way. The way to save the world is for you to raise the future generations. When your children begin to receive answers, unlike us, tremendous things happen. You raise just one Remnant, and such things happen. There is no other reason. Make our future generations into Spiritual Summits. And through this, help them find their talents.

[Talent]
That is why we gather like this. It’s not just that.

[237 – 5000]
When these Remnants find their talents, they will go to the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes, which is completely different from us. It worked even though only one person was raised. It might seem like it won’t work, but this happened when just one person, Moses, was raised.

Introduction: Where to Start
Then, after receiving this covenant, what was done first? You can do it together. You can do it alone or together.

1. 40 Days – Kingdom of God (Mission) – Evangelism School
What was done first? For 40 days, He explained the Kingdom of God. This is very important. Does it have to be exactly 40 days? I don’t think that’s the point. How much did the Word work here? My mission became clear. As far as I know, many elders, ordained deacons, and deaconesses are established, but they are established without considering this mission as important. We must start anew. No one helped me. Since the church didn’t do it, I couldn’t do it either. Far from evangelism, the church couldn’t even deliver the Gospel. I did these 40 days alone. Try it. A mysterious experience will happen. No specific “answer” came. Truly. Only one answer came: Mission. With this, the world truly changes. I did 40 days alone twice, and far from any change happening, nothing changed at all. So I realized one thing. I realized I had been offering sham prayers until then. I was worrying about my future. This was when I was an associate pastor, and I was worried about the future. When I meet our assistant pastors, I tell them not to worry. What I realized then was the “Evangelism School.” It might be different for you. What is the first thing you must experience in your life? It is for the accurate, absolute mission given by God to come to me. We must ensure these Remnants have a clear talent.

2. Together (Three Feasts)
“When the day of Pentecost had fully come”—this means it was done for 10 days. Together. They did it for 10 days, and what was the greatest blessing that arose then? The Three Feasts. We are saved (Passover). Jesus explained our background for 40 days (Ingathering). Then what is “now”? It is gaining strength (Pentecost). Remnants, don’t say anything and just start alone. Starting now. You need to see that God’s Word is alive and working, don’t you? Because you don’t see that, other things constantly become your standard. This is the opportunity. This Missions Conference is truly an opportunity. The largest number of foreigners in our history has come. Witnesses are beginning to rise. Look at the person who just did the forum. Since I have a backlog of meetings, I can only talk for about 5 minutes. We talk for 5 minutes, take a photo, and they leave. But they left and came back in. I thought they had something important to say, so I listened, and they said they were so thankful to God because so many works were happening. You can tell by looking. Look at the Russian person from the last retreat. They kept saying how thankful they were because God was working. Even though we had no time. We can tell if a person is lacking or if they are truly speaking of something real. I don’t know Russian at all, but I could tell just by looking at their eyes. Why am I saying this? You must have that experience at least once in your life. Living your whole life without ever experiencing it is a huge miracle—a miracle greater than the parting of the Red Sea. You must do it this time. Don’t be persuaded by me; look at God’s Word. All missionaries must experience this and then go. All church officers, don’t make excuses and find this. One day, you’ll see doors opening for businesses that can achieve world evangelization, regardless of your own efforts. That is normal.

3. Acts 2:17-18
This is how we depart. There is no need to worry about the future. Regarding the Remnants, “your children will prophesy” when they understand God’s Word, “your young men will see visions” of things far away, and “your old men will dream dreams.” You must do this first. The experience. You know in your conscience, don’t you? “I haven’t had this experience at all.” Then you must start with this. I felt so frustrated in Busan. I said that when we establish church officers in the future, we must have “Mission Forums.” We must have “Mission Festivals,” “Mission Seminars,” and “Mission Conferences.” We must make the Word work. Because we do it halfway, we miss all the blessings. It’s certain. From that day on, the Word is fulfilled. Then, “When the day of Pentecost had fully come.” You begin to see the future. In this Missions Conference, all believers must see this first. Definitely.

Main

1. The Disciple
Then you will see the three things God has prepared. What comes first? It’s not “how should I evangelize?” You will see the disciple God has prepared for you. You saw them before, but:
1) Acts 3:1-12: You didn’t see them before. But the lame man sitting at the Beautiful Gate appeared completely different to Peter’s eyes.
2) Acts 8:4-8: After the church officers received grace, works took place in Samaria—a place that was always there but they never went to.
3) Acts 9:10-15: Don’t worry about anything; you must have this experience. While doing nothing, God called the church officer Ananias. It starts from here. What did He say to Ananias? “I will send Paul, the figure who will save the age.” People don’t do this. People just work and eat. This is not that.
4) Acts 13:1-4: Why? I said it last time. He chose to use Paul, but why did He call him in Damascus? Because Ananias was there. What does that mean? Because you are there. If you are truly a person who will save lives, God will break down figures like Paul around you. These things begin to happen. Not a single person used humanism. As they went out receiving the guidance of the Holy Spirit, God prepared the people and the places. From today, don’t worry about your business. Don’t worry about your studies. Instead, create “300%.” In the future, if you don’t create 300%, nothing will work. An era is coming where people don’t go to an office. An era of non-face-to-face working from home. You don’t have to go out to buy things. The era of non-face-to-face delivery. It’s coming. It’s all here now. Banks must change their thinking. The era of non-face-to-face transactions is coming. Such a mysterious era is coming. So if you don’t know the guidance of the Holy Spirit and the power of God, it won’t work. You must produce 300%. Banks are disappearing, but finance is not.
5) Acts 16:11: You must receive complete guidance. While looking for a place of prayer, they met Lydia.
6) Acts 19:8, 12: God leads you until the end in this way. They boldly explained the Kingdom of God. Then, only the disciples were picked out and attached. This is your first blessing. Do not worry at all. One concern is that because you haven’t enjoyed this blessing until now, the situation has become urgent. You just need to keep that in mind. If I have no money, I have no composure. That’s the situation. If a car breaks down, a person panics. Spiritually, that is the state. Don’t worry. You must quietly go down to the bottom. Answers will unconditionally come. You shouldn’t lie. I clearly knew I had no ability. I started from there. People keep telling “lies that aren’t lies.” It was the same when I went to Youngdo. “We have no money and nothing.” What should we do? We must do it exactly as it is in the Bible. Isn’t that right? What was the result? It is prepared. Don’t worry.

2. Nephilim
You must remember again. You must not forget. Why did God call you as a missionary? Why does He tell you to do missions? The Nephilim disease has come to the whole world. If a doctor could fix it, why would He send you? The person who saw and recorded this was Luke, the doctor. It would have been a problem if someone else recorded it. A doctor recorded it. What? Nephilim. It will gradually increase in the future. It’s in three places in the Bible, right?
1) Acts 13:5-11, 16:16-18, 19:8-20: That is why He called you.
2) Depression, Panic Disorder, Mental Illness: Because these diseases are increasing so much, it is serious now. Depression—it’s quite serious. Panic disorders—there are so many now. Because people are completely seized by Satan, mental problems come. We must stop it quickly. The only way to stop it is the Gospel. And a “lukewarm” Gospel won’t do. Only Gospel. Only Christ. Only through this is darkness broken. He sends these people. He doesn’t even need to send many. He sends this person. Even where Paul went, darkness was broken and began to flee. It even said, “Jesus I know, and Paul I know about, but who are you?” Even now, the powers of darkness, Satan, and these authorities that seize the whole world know you well—that you are not “Only Christ.” They are not afraid at all. But they kneel before “Only Christ.” Missionaries must remember this.
3) Spiritual Legacy: Something even more frightening—this spiritual legacy goes to the future generations. Ending it in this generation is the Gospel movement. No book can teach this. Because it is not God’s Word. It is only in the Bible. Religious people aren’t really listening to my messages. Don’t misunderstand. Monks shouldn’t misunderstand either. It’s not that Buddhism isn’t a true religion and only Christianity is. Even in Christianity, just “going to church” is of no use. Unless it is “Only Christ,” it is all in vain.

3. Future
Therefore, this covenant and this ministry save your future.
1) Acts 17:1 (Christ): Raise just a few, but raise the lambs. He didn’t raise many. He only did this much. He just went to the synagogue in Thessalonica and did it. He went there and explained Christ.
2) Acts 18:4: You shouldn’t do other things. Right now, the future generations worldwide do not know how to pray. They are spiritually devastated. We must open the “Friday-Saturday-Sunday Era” and help them pray spiritually. It’s heartbreaking.
3) Acts 19:8: Unless it is the Kingdom of God, you cannot save the world. Everything else… that is why people suffer while going to church. They gather every day to fight over positions and gather every day to speak human words. Try going for 10 or 20 years like that. How hard would it be? This time, you must experience the real thing.

Conclusion
This is the conclusion. Receiving these answers is important, but Jesus promised us one last thing.

[Power]
He said He would give power so we can do this. You must enjoy this power. So I used three words. We must imprint these on our Remnants. Other powers won’t work.

1. Heavenly: It must be that power given by God from the Kingdom of God. Even that isn’t enough.
2. Thronely: It must be the power of the Throne given directly by God. One day, works will happen. We must keep imprinting this.
3. Eternally: The eternal Gospel. Eternally. The work of breaking the darkness that cannot be handled will take place. This year too, I need to finish the lyrics quickly, and this will be included. I’m trying to write the lyrics with the condition that these three are included, but it’s difficult. I’ve said it before—it’s easier to see cherry blossoms falling and write a poem. It’s easy to look at the dawn sky and write something. But trying to deliver God’s covenant as a messenger is not an easy task. I keep getting requests to write the schedule I carry for a week. The strength that comes from here. The talent that comes from here. The mission that comes from here. You must check these. You are the main figures here. From now on, cast away all worries. God’s work will begin. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, we thank You. May the glory of God overflow throughout the whole earth during this Missions Conference. May unbelief, darkness, and things that look like religion but aren’t the Gospel be completely bound, and may only the Gospel of the Early Church be restored. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

Authority the Resurrected Christ Has Given

2026.04.19 Sunday 1st Service
「Authority the Resurrected Christ Has Given」
(Mk 16:15-20)


Introduction
Thank you. While listening to the praise and seeing the faces appear on the screen, I thought it would be wonderful to keep listening to the praise continuously.

Our missionaries are arriving in great numbers. The covenant that must be grasped for the sake of missions has been revealed here today. Also, these are the portions that new believers must not fail to know. In particular, our church officers have been living their walk of faith for a long time. Because of that, if they are not careful, it is easy to miss things. What would that be? It is clearly revealed in today’s scripture.

Christ resurrected and gave us something important before He left. That answer is Authority. It said, “To all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the authority to become children of God.” But the problem is that people do not truly know what this authority is. Also, they use it incorrectly. The question is, how should it be used? This part is deeply related to the answers we receive in our walk of faith. Because it is so important, our missionaries must take this with them. And all believers must carry this authority with them.

Since time is short—what does it mean to use it incorrectly?
Joseph spoke many spiritual things to his brothers. These brothers hated Joseph. They tried to kill him. They must have been so angry. Eventually, they sold him. Those brothers used their authority incorrectly. They would suffer for a lifetime. The important thing is here: Joseph was already a person with the status of an evangelist, and while being sold, he used his authority properly. He saw the accurate thing. He confirmed that this was the path to fulfilling the dream he had dreamed before. He was certain it was the path to going as a missionary. He met his brothers and spoke of that fact. He used his authority correctly.

We think authority is only used for casting out demons. There are things much greater than that. This also becomes the standard for whether you receive answers today or not. “Pastor, my husband is this kind of person, so it won’t work.” Yes, that’s right. Answers won’t come. What must I see for the sake of my husband? You must use authority correctly. “Why is my reality like this?” That’s right. You must change yourself and see the correct thing. From that moment, works begin. The reality around me doesn’t change. Will my father change? Will my mother change? Will my grandmother change? I must change the eyes with which I see. That is using authority correctly.

Last week, the message was: Change yourself. Into what? Into a worshiper. It cannot work otherwise. Then, your eyes will be opened. The Lord has given you immense authority. Do you understand? Our new family members and new believers usually get deceived here. Even those who have been in the faith for a long time get deceived, so how could they not? Most pastors get deceived, so there’s no need to even mention new believers.

It is extremely important to use the authority God gave us correctly. King Saul tried to kill David. He used his authority incorrectly. David helped King Saul. He prayed until the end. Why? Because he saw something else. This is important. This is the authority of the believer.
Potiphar and Potiphar’s wife used their authority incorrectly in a way that remains forever. They threw Joseph into prison. Joseph’s eyes were different. In fact, everything was prepared there. Right? You must have the eyes to see this. That is using correct authority. He wasn’t just forcing himself to be comforted. He saw accurately. But all the answers that change the world are contained right there.

They threw John Bunyan into prison even though he was innocent. Bunyan’s eyes were different. There, he found the time to create a masterpiece that would change the world (The Pilgrim’s Progress). It truly happened that way. How about you?
The Remnants ask many questions, right? That’s not wrong. Einstein asked many questions. However, you shouldn’t ask “life questions” haphazardly. Einstein asked scientific questions. We must ask questions well.

What kind of questions should we ask? You must ask, “What is God’s plan?” Right? That is the eye that uses authority correctly. There is no need to be discouraged. No need to ask people. You just have to wait until God makes it known. That is what we call prayer. A person who knows prayer can wait. A person who knows prayer does not speak easily. They might speak after ten years have passed.
Potiphar’s wife was far too restless. she made a huge mistake. But Joseph saw God’s plan there. This is the difference. It is the extreme opposite.

Now, there isn’t time for a long speech. I am saying this because it’s regrettable that you keep missing it. Our Remnants—after I’ve given a full message, looking at the questions they ask, it seems they don’t know anything. “Why did they ask this question? The message was already given.” Did I not explain it well? Is it abstract, as some say? You must listen well. You must truly grasp it.
Today, our missionaries have come, and during this week, you must take with you the things that God gives for your entire life.

What authority did He give? Before knowing that, there are a few things to know in the introduction.
It is the Authority of that Name. Right? What name is it? There is no more need to slaughter lambs. Right? No more need to sprinkle blood. No more need to burn incense. Jesus Christ has solved everything. It is the authority that fulfills Genesis 3:15. “The offspring of the woman will crush the serpent’s head.” The moment you truly hold onto this, darkness is bound to flee.
“Go and offer a blood sacrifice.” It came out that day.
“You will be taken captive to Babylon.” But, “Behold, the virgin shall conceive and bear a son, and his name shall be Immanuel.” It refers to that authority.
We use this as ambassadors and representatives. This covenant turned Egypt upside down. Right? we think of it too lightly and view what we have as worthless. We cannot actually enjoy it. That’s why I told the Remnants last time: “Conquer yourself.” Because of “me,” I cannot see this immense blessing.

First, you must know that this is Authority given from above. The Father gave it to me, and He gave it to us. What we gain through study is a “qualification.” There are things we gain through practice; that is “ability.” However, regardless of my ability, what is given from above is called “Authority.” In the past, kings just gave authority to their subjects. It is authority when a President appoints ministers by law. Right? You don’t take an exam to be recruited as a minister. The authority you have received is the authority given to the saved ones and the evangelism disciples. You must take this with you. But your eyes have become wrong. Because the eyes you see with are wrong, it is of no use.
This authority manifests when you use it. Ability and qualifications are mine even if I don’t use them, but authority must be used.

What is one more thing you must know first? It is the Name that Satan fears. It is the name that the darkness, which has completely seized America, dreads.
It is the name through which disasters retreat. Is that right?
It’s not that I am good or great; it’s that after knowing this covenant, I have no greed for other things. That is the greatest concern of my life. I have no interest in other things. Money, positions—I have no interest. But since 99.9% of people live only with interest in those things, I can’t live all by myself. Right? Honestly, that is a conflict for me. But it’s finished.

Main
Then, since there isn’t much time, what kind of authority did Christ promise? You need to know three things. You must take them with you.

First: Cast out demons in my name. This is the promise given. Why is that?
Listen, the earth is completely seized by shamanism, superstition, idols, and meditation. Which country is the worst? It’s America. Which country is worse than America? It’s Europe. What is the key to the New Age movement seizing America? Isn’t it Satan worship? What is the key to the famous Freemasons? Isn’t it the movement of spirit possession (Jeop-sin)? It is terrifying. This has gripped America firmly. Jesus’ first words were that He came to give the authority to cast out demons.
Japan? The whole land is covered in idols. If that were right, God would have said, “Worship idols.” If it were helpful, He would have said, “Serve demons” or “Perform ancestral rites.”
Because it absolutely does not work, He called them first and said, “I called you to be with you.” And He called them because they must evangelize. Then, He also said, “and to have authority to cast out demons.” No matter how much I think about it, I believe this is right.
Casting them out isn’t the only issue. You must bind them completely. Go in the name of Jesus and heal those seized by demons and trapped in darkness throughout the whole world.

Second promised: In my name, they will place their hands on sick people, and they will get well. I believe this.
What is the first thing I did at Youngdo Church? “You don’t need to receive prayer from me. Place your own hand on where it hurts and pray in the name of Christ.” Works happen. Works!
Why do the sick get well when we pray in the name of Christ? You must know the reason, right? “Wait, do the sick really get well in the name of Christ?” They don’t get well because they don’t believe it. But why do they get well?
It’s because the spiritual fundamental is resolved. Right? If you keep praying, the source begins to be healed. You must gain fundamental strength. “Go into all the world and preach to all creation… in my name, cast out demons… place your hands on the sick, and they will get well.” That means there are many sick people. If there were no sick people, would it make sense to say “place your hands on the sick and they will get well”?

And then He ascended. But there is an interesting record. It says that while the disciples went out and preached everywhere, the Lord worked with them. What is that? That is the third thing. What kind of authority is it?
It is the authority of Him being with us with the power of the Throne. It is certain.
Then what did He say? “They will pick up snakes”—are you literally catching snakes? Such a thing might happen. Even so, “I will protect you.” Spiritually, it means the authority to “pick up” the power of darkness and Satan—He will give that authority.
Then what is the next thing He says? “Even if they drink any deadly poison, it will not hurt them.” Does that mean you should drink poison? There was a strange group that died while practicing drinking poison. That’s not what it means. It means, “I will protect you from the Throne. Even if you encounter such things, I will protect you.” You must be clear on this.
All missionaries have this authority. This means you must be able to use the authority correctly. Because you cannot use it correctly, God “does not” answer; it’s not that He “cannot” answer.
Look at David. He is amazing. Saul tried so hard to kill him. Saul—that is a strange kind of authority. He followed him around to kill him. Day and night, 24 hours a day, he only studied how to kill David. “The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.” Later, loyal people who followed David began to gather. They said, “Let’s kill Saul.” David said no. He said it several times. Saul was possessed by a demon and became a strange person. “No. The Lord does not permit laying a hand on the servant whom God anointed and established.” When King Saul died, David wept bitterly. This man’s eyes for using authority were different. When he grew old, a rebellion occurred. The wicked Absalom and wicked subjects conspired and rebelled. David fled for the time being because it was urgent. As David was leaving, he said something to his subordinates. What did he say? “Do not kill Absalom.” If it were me, I’d say, “Kill that fellow first.” If it were you, you’d say, “Hurry up and strike him dead.” His eyes were different. As he went, Shimei cursed David. A subordinate tried to kill Shimei because he was so angry. David’s eyes for using authority were different. Therefore, he established 1,000 watchtowers in the nation of Israel and prepared the Temple to save the world before he left.

Conclusion
Let us summarize the Word.
Enjoy your Status of the Throne every day. That is called the Watchtower.
Enjoy the Authority of the Throne every day. That is called the Journey.
Leave behind this Legacy of the Throne. That is called the Guidepost.

Therefore, confirm this every day. “What great work should I do?” I don’t even want to ask that, nor do I want to answer it. Enjoy God’s immense Watchtower, Journey, and Guidepost of the Throne every day. It’s not that “success” for the Remnant comes from there. The strength to conquer the world comes from there. God is not talking about the trivial “success” that we speak of. Right? That is a given.
Enjoy the Watchtower, Journey, and Guidepost given by Christ even now. Right now. Enjoy it when difficulties come. Enjoy it when you have strange or wrong thoughts. The world will be conquered.
I ask myself every day: whether the path and evidence of the Watchtower, Journey, and Guidepost are within me. Right? God is fulfilling salvation even now. Is that path before me? God is answering prayer from the Throne even now. He is fulfilling His Word. You must be inside that.

It is not that you are “helping” the missionaries—helping them is the greatest blessing. Works where God receives glory are happening. Honestly, I was a bit surprised. Those of multi-ethnicities are dying to come here. They can’t come because of visas. And I realized for the first time this time that there are so many people, unrelated to us, who are listening to the messages. It will be so. If you are in the field of evangelism, nothing works except the Word of God. Anything that “works” besides the Word of God is a sham.
May the greatest glory be to God, and I bless you in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ that this Missions Conference will be so. Let us pray.

Prayer. God, receive glory all day today. Let the believers gain true strength. Open our eyes to see what God desires. Let the authority of Christ be used. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

The Promise of the Resurrected Christ

2026.04.12 Sunday 1st Service
「The Promise of the Resurrected Christ」
(Mt 28:16-20)


▣ Introduction_ How should we solve difficulties and crises?
Missionaries from all over are coming in because of the Missions Conference. What should they take with them? Also, many multi-ethnic people are coming in. What is the thing they must take with them? Today, thankfully, Candidate Choi Yun-hong, who is running for Superintendent of Education, is a believer. He is worshipping with us. Also, City Council candidate Hong Hee-cheol was originally an early member of our church. He is worshipping with us. What must they take with them?

1. Most people – Struggle because things don’t change while praying, and when it still doesn’t work, they give up and fall into unbelief.
When smart people look at it today, the Early Church is currently in a crisis. If it were a person whose head works a bit, they wouldn’t go to the Early Church. Why? Because it is in a crisis. They legally decided it was a heresy, and so they decided to imprison those who preach the Gospel, and to execute those who continue to preach. On top of that, Jesus died miserably on the cross, but suddenly the resurrection incident broke out. Then, [people] thought the Jews would become kind, but they became more wicked and are spreading lies. Now, such a situation has been met. If you look into it, during the time we live, there are always these kinds of difficulties. From long ago, the same words: “Ah, these days it is too hard to live.” It means it has always existed. This has now been placed in an extreme situation.
In times like this, what would most people do? Naturally, they would do so. They pray hard. Does it change just because you pray? It would be fine if, after praying, those who were persecuting suddenly died or disappeared, but it is not like that. Because of that, they try struggling, but it doesn’t work. We actually end up giving up and falling into unbelief.

2. The Church – Because there is no spiritual knowledge, there is no spiritual strength and spiritual problems come.
A bigger problem than that is the Jew called “the church” is also a problem. The Jews even now do not know.
1) They do not know Original Sin (Genesis 3, 6, 11). They do not know what original sin is. Original sin. Original sin is not something I committed. They don’t know what original sin is. Genesis chapter 3 to 6, 11—this is original sin, but they don’t know it.
2) The Virgin Birth is not understood. So the virgin birth, it is just not understood. It won’t do if it’s a child of man. It must be a child of God born of the Holy Spirit, but it is not understood.
3) The Resurrection and the Throne that Jesus spoke of for 40 days are not understood. Dying on the cross is fine. Resurrected? “Hey, these guys stole the body now,” and so on, they make up all kinds of lies. I mean, He resurrected and spoke about the Throne for 40 days? What kind of talk is that? It is not understood. Meanwhile, the nation of Israel is now within the crisis of soon receiving disasters. In a word, even though they are very magnificent people, they have no spiritual knowledge. Therefore, they have not one bit of spiritual strength. Thus, spiritual problems come.

3. The Nation and the World – An uproar with idol worship, mental problems, and accidents.
Right now, the nation and the world are in an uproar. If you go to some countries, it’s an uproar with incense being burned everywhere to the point it’s hard to sleep. Therefore, increasingly, children’s minds are turning and it’s an uproar. Not a single leader of any country, president, or professor speaks this story. Why? Because if they do, there is no countermeasure. I saw it come out once in the newspaper. 80% of Japanese young people cannot make eye contact with the other person. It came out in the newspaper like that. Occasionally I hear that in Korea too, because children’s minds are turning, classes are difficult. For those children, have the school teachers give them medicine so they can study. In America, psychiatrists are popular. Because so many accidents break out, they have to go to the psychiatry department to get a medical certificate.

※ The resurrected Jesus appeared but there were those who doubted – We choose the wrong thing in front of difficulties and crises. We fight or run away, but it is not solved.
Now, be that as it may, how should we solve the difficulties that have come to us? Today. Today, what kind of answer must we take with us? It says here that even though the resurrected Jesus appeared, there were people, even among the disciples, who doubted.
The crisis of the Early Church currently before us—how should it be solved? This is important. You must have this answer. How to solve the crisis before me, this. I mean, how to solve these many problems? We keep choosing the wrong thing. We fight hard. It is not solved. Or we avoid and run away. It is not solved.

▣ Main Body_ What happens when I change myself into a child of God and completely worship
An important answer came out here today. There were those who worshipped. I must change myself. Right? Those who worship. It’s not just “worship” level. This word “worship” (gyeong-bae) means completely kneeling. Those who worship. We keep trying to change reality. I must change myself. Right? We keep talking about the other party. I must change myself.
At that time, three things are visible. What kind of things happen when I change myself as a child of God and completely worship? Three things happen. Those are yours. It means they are visible.

1. I will always be with you with all authority in heaven and on earth (v. 18).
First. “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me,” so “I will always be with you.” This began to be visible. I will be with you with all authority in heaven and on earth. This begins to be visible. Upon looking into it, what kind of work happened?
1) The Bartizan, Journey, and Guidepost of the Throne are yours. This must be imprinted in the soul through prayer. Christ explained again on Mount Olivet. The Bartizan, Journey, and Guidepost of the Throne are yours. This must be imprinted in my soul. Because I pray.
2) Peter who was completely changed: Because of this, Peter became a changed person. It wasn’t that Peter [decided] “I will do such and such,” but the person was just changed. Peter, who was an unlearned fisherman, was completely changed to a startling degree. I will be with you always with all authority in heaven and on earth. One must be changed into a person who sees this. Otherwise, whether the problem before me is solved or not solved is not the issue, and nothing will work.
3) Paul who was turned into an evangelist after meeting Christ and finding all answers: Paul, who was so learned and smart, his own problem was not being solved. He was performing religious life diligently but the answer didn’t come. Paul, who studied under the best teacher and had an outstanding position in the nation of Judea. This person met Christ on the road while going. He finished all answers. From that time, he was turned into an evangelist.
4) Kim Ik-du who was changed into an evangelist: In our country too, Kim Ik-du, who was a thug—this person was changed into an evangelist. The answer wasn’t coming [before].

2. The Triune God will always be with you (v. 19).
If I change myself today, the second thing is visible. What does it say? “Baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” What does that mean? The Triune God will be with you.
1) The work the Triune God does – Word fulfillment, prayer answer, work of salvation: The Triune God is even now performing three things. He is fulfilling the Word. Right? He is answering prayer. He is achieving the work of salvation. I am within these three. That is why it says baptize in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.
2) The Bartizan, Journey, and Guidepost of the Throne begin to be visible on my path: The Bartizan, Journey, and Guidepost of the Throne that Christ spoke of begin to be visible on my path. One must ask. “To what extent is the pastor receiving this answer?” When I first started the evangelism movement, the first phrase I [used] was “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 30 years ago I came here and said it. God will surely perform the evangelization movement. Now, He has opened the door up to the 5,000 tribes. Right? Nothing more than that is needed. The rest is what God does. Why? “Go and make disciples of all nations.” It is the second promise Jesus made. He first said He possessed the authority of heaven and earth, and then “You go and make disciples of all nations. Baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” He made this promise.
3) 3 Camps – Must become ours. Simply put, while looking at this covenant, I feel that way. Three important Camps in my life were visible in the Bible. The Bible is the complete answer. This must become ours. Right?
(1) 1st Camp – While praying having the covenant given on Mount Olivet, He completely opens the way. When we offer this prayer, while praying having the covenant given on Mount Olivet, He completely opens the way for us. It means go while looking at that. That is the 1st Camp.
(2) 2nd Camp – The Nephilim darkness culture crumbles. In the places you go, the Nephilim darkness culture surely crumbles. You just need to wait. Make that the standard. That is the 2nd Camp.
(3) 3rd Camp – There are surely disciples whom He has hidden. Therefore, make disciples of all nations. There are surely disciples whom He has hidden. That is the 3rd Camp. Therefore, make disciples of all nations. Baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. How certain is it?

3. I will be with you always, to the very end of the age (v. 20).
And He promised the third thing. What did He say? “I will be with you always, to the very end of the age.” I found three words here. Must we not receive the answer?
1) Heavenly: I. Ah, so the word “Heavenly” was used for the Remnant.
2) Thronely: So the word “Thronely” was used. The Throne.
3) Eternally: The word “Eternally” was used. Forever. “I will be with you always, to the very end of the age.” Today you all must hold this covenant. Our two people, those who must do politics—those people are children of God. You must keep it in your heart. In the places you go, the forces of darkness are bound to crumble. Right? You must believe that. The eyes I see with must be changed. Otherwise, world evangelization has arrived but you don’t know it.

▣ Conclusion_ When you return having this covenant, it changes into a lifelong answer.
So today, when you return having this covenant, it changes into a lifelong answer.

1. Lineage (Poverty, disease, incompetence) – I prayed holding the covenant that the Triune God, who possesses the authority of heaven and earth, will be with me until the end of the age, and the answer came.
It is the lineage I saw. Other lineages were the same. Here I thought. I held this covenant. “I must not resemble this.” Right? “I must not resemble this. I must save this.” I must save my lineage, should I resemble it?
Surprisingly, from that time, three answers keep coming. Most of all, around me, the adults said “there is no money” most often. And, “I’m sick,” they said most often. They die too early. So having barely lived, when they turn 60, they had a 60th birthday party (hwangap) and so on. Because they die too early. And, being incompetent. Having no strength.
I—regarding that—I must change myself. I must not follow that. Is there strength? This covenant is visible. “I will be with you with the authority of heaven and earth. The Triune God will be with you. I will be with you until the end of the age.” It’s done. I prayed holding only this covenant. I have no ability to do anything else. I prayed. So amazingly, the answer comes.

2. The Church (Human stories, incompetence, no evangelism) – I must change myself. I must pray and evangelize.
So I must change myself. You went to church? You all are attending church. The congregants do not do a single thing capable of receiving answers. In my view. It is always human stories. Before [asking] “is it right or not,” it is human stories. There is no talk of God. Because of that, they don’t receive answers. Therefore they have no ability. They cannot evangelize. What is world evangelization? They have no strength. At that time, I change myself. Right? No need to change others. I must change myself. What must I do here? I must pray and evangelize. Isn’t it so? When I did this, you see the doors open. The doors of evangelism keep opening.
Our candidate Hong Hee-cheol was a young adult in that 35-pyeong [office] when I first came here. You know. From that time, works kept happening. Works happened to the point that the neighboring churches were “sick to their stomachs” (jealous).
I must change myself. One cannot change God. Right? Then works occur.

3. Seminary and the Christian world (Occupation) – I must change myself. Prepare 300% for evangelism.
I went to seminary, I looked out at that Christian world. It’s the same. It’s all a struggle to death. This is just an occupation, an occupation. I must change myself. No need to change others. I must change myself. “God, let me prepare 300% for evangelism.” But that was made in my own way. When I came here, I came having prepared exactly. Just God’s Word and prayer answers poured down explosively. That has nothing to do with my ability. God’s Word [did it]. Isn’t it so?

※ See the important world and change my bartizan. I must change my “self” that is holding other things.
We must see the important world. Just as Jesus said today: “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go to all nations. Baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Behold.” In the Bible, at every important time: “Behold.” It’s not “I will be with you until the end of the age,” but “I will be with you always.” It’s done, right? One must change. I must change my bartizan. You are a person of blessing to whom God answers, but if you are holding onto other things, it won’t do.
What is my worry regarding the young Remnants? If the Gospel does not enter into those children, other things will enter. it is scary. I told the Superintendent candidate today. What enters into the children is what’s important. Right? If a believer does not find the answer with this—if what Christ said does not become the answer—then something else has been [put in], I mean. You do the “struggle for your life” until you die. I must change myself. Other people? No excuse. I must change myself.
Even though Jesus gave the perfect answer, if you just throw it away, does that not mean you are holding onto something else? You must change yourself today. Do not be afraid. It is changing myself. You must know what your background is.
I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ that today becomes a day of important answers all day long.

Prayer. We give glory and praise to God. Let today be a time of changing my unbelief. Let it be a time of changing myself rather than reality. Let it be a time of holding my covenant rather than excuses. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

24 Temple of the 3 Feasts

2026.04.12 Sunday 2nd Service
Church Construction Devotional Worship
「24 Temple of the 3 Feasts」
(Ac 2:1-13)


Remnants, when reading books, must read books that become a strength to them. Because you have no time, you cannot read many books. You must also develop a method of seeing books a bit more. Because you have to live your whole life, and you must not fall behind in such things. These days there is the internet so it is okay, but in the past when there was no internet, I went to bookstores and looked at book titles once in a while. Then roughly the flow is visible. Now, I see many books simply. I do not read them all. Last week, the books I met—the contents were all things I already knew. So I only looked at the table of contents. You all must attend the Core [message] and see the message or see the flow. And even if I do not participate directly, I must know what kind of conferences there were this week. I must catch that flow. I am not saying to listen to all of that. If it becomes that way, if you pray from Sunday morning, by about now, the answer I must hold onto comes out. In that way, if you open the Prayer Journal tomorrow morning, you will be startled. And if you go to the field, things that you cannot help but be thankful for come out. Holding the covenant like that, you must gain strength. When you wake up in the morning, do not pray with difficulty, but it must be prayer where I gain strength, gaining fundamental strength. There is no need to go somewhere and pray with difficulty or set a time. Just when eyes open, prayer must start. During the day, if you try to pray on purpose, it is hard. You must change everything you see and hear into prayer. That is a very small difference, but it brings immensely different results. When I think of you, the difference between just thinking and thinking while praying is the difference between heaven and earth. Then now again you all come to see the things where answers are fulfilled. Today I talked briefly with the elders. I have many confirmations there as well. Answers like “Regarding the missionaries’ training (hab-suk), I must do this” are visible. Confirmation is made that “This Tuesday conference is a time schedule for doing such and such.” Today, you all—Busan as well, Ulsan, Seoul, Changwon—are all in a situation of currently doing construction. There are also many churches without a temple. Then there are things you absolutely must do regarding that. While we are living, when we do construction like this, a few worries occur. Sometimes there is money worry, and sometimes there are realistic worries. Sometimes there are worries and conflicts regarding the work. Because of these things, we miss many things. Therefore, today, it is the covenant that the teams doing construction and all churches must hold.

「Three Feasts 24 Temple」(Acts 2:1-13)
It is the Three Feasts 24 Temple. In each of these words, much is contained. If you keep the Three Feasts as rituals (jeol-gi), you make a mistake. You must keep them 24. The Jews failed because they kept them as rituals. It exists because a day that cannot be helped must be made, but this must always be kept. And now all our churches must become 24 Temples. Therefore, we have many realities or things that are missing or difficult in front of us. Therefore, God has given the field read today.

[I First Strength]
The most important thing is that I must first gain strength. The realistic things and worries I mentioned earlier are important, but I must first gain strength.

[Three Feasts]
Therefore, the Three Feasts part is something to enjoy always.
[1. Liberation]: Passover is our having received liberation.
[2. Power]: Pentecost is enjoying power now.
[3. Background]: Feast of Ingathering is our background.

[24]
One must enjoy this comfortably 24. It absolutely will not do not to do it. Comfortably, without setting a time. Our elders, because you are especially important, when eyes open, start prayer comfortably.

[Daily]
Daily 3 Concentrations. Morning time is the time to conquer and recover the universe. Therefore, in the Bible, stories of the morning appear very importantly and frequently. Even in Job, it comes out asking if you have made this fact known to the dawn. And day time—because praying on purpose can be hard—you must change everything into prayer. At night, you must make 300% daily.

[Every Hour]
[Every Event]
That is called every hour and every event. You must perform 24 prayer comfortably. Especially, you all must sleep a lot as well, but sleeping a lot is not necessarily a good thing.

[25, 00]
From this time, 25 and Eternity come to you. At this time, it is made without me even knowing.

[Bartizan of the Throne]
Bartizan of the Throne. If I am just blankly doubting, a bartizan of darkness is made without me knowing.
[Journey of the Throne]
[Guidepost of the Throne]
Then you come to go on this journey and this guidepost.

▣ Introduction_ Meeting
Every church building a temple, start from this.

1. Acts 1:3
You have meetings, but what kind of meeting? It is Acts 1:3 given by Christ. It is okay even if it is not necessarily 40 days.
[Temple Construction Forum]: A temple construction forum must take place here. At this time, what is the work of the assistant ministers? You must find all things blessed through building the temple and disclose them. While offering this worship, your spirit must come alive. Only then does something occur. If the spirit is all dead and there is no strength and only worry, will it work? Also, when you establish church officers in the future, you must seriously find this person’s mission together. Jesus did so, actually. “I’ll just do anything roughly.” It won’t do then. Do you go somewhere and do just anything? Do you go anywhere and give your card? That’s not it. This thing called a mission is extremely important. If so, whether using Friday or using Saturday, a temple construction forum must take place. This is the blessing. Only when my spirit lives is the next thing visible. If I do not live at all, that is someone else’s story. This time I’m going to try the missionary training. In the past, when training assistant ministers, I told them to intentionally make one person accept [Christ] a day. I told them to make everyone they meet accept. It can be hard. I am not talking about that. It is to confirm what kind of work God is doing on the path you go. This lasts a lifetime. At that time, it was nothing and I just did it, but this lasts a lifetime. Does it make sense to live missing all these blessings? Jesus is the one who did that. It’s not just doing a temple construction forum. You must receive grace while foruming missions and various things.

2. Acts 1:8
[Mission Forum]: They received this grace and came down. Here it came out that they devoted themselves exclusively to prayer. This is performing a forum having a mission that is now fixed. It is holding with assurance. Teachers teaching middle and high school students must absolutely do this. Students come and listen and leave, listen and leave. They cannot confirm or find something. Their brains are also worse than ours, but after time passes, many talents who move the world come out of America. There is a reason for that. American people cannot even write correctly. Some people write with their left hand and write with the paper all turned over. It is so different from us to the extent you wonder “why write like that?” But where does the difference occur? Our Korean education itself doesn’t have forum education. These people have this from the beginning. Forum works. When I met an American professor, I was startled. What did that professor say to us? He gave a problem and said write while sufficiently discussing this. And if there are reference books, take them all out and see them while writing. In Korean words, he said to cheat (conning). I realized then. Questions and answers, which one among several? Is this correct, or try writing as you please, is this correct? Here the difference occurs. What the Jews who moved the world do most is forum. They confirm this. Even when confirming, for example, a coming-of-age ceremony is deciding what you will do in the future. They do that. When doing that, they call all the experts there. They listen to the kid’s story and listen to the experts’ stories. They fix it there. “Ah, it’s correct.” If some person says “No,” they revise again or hold again. A person who received such an important church office has no mission at all. Some people do not even come to the session (dang-hoe). They do not know why they must go. They do not even know where they are or where they are breathing. In this way, we miss every single thing that has blessing.

3. Acts 2:1-13
It is the text read today. What is it? It came out immediately.
[Fulfillment]: Hold onto the fact that God’s Word was fulfilled. Peter said during the sermon: It is not that they are drunk on new wine, but the prophecy made by the prophet Joel has been fulfilled. Therefore, what remains for the future is what God gave that will be fulfilled. Your children will prophesy and the old will dream dreams. Your young men will see visions. That is all future stories. You don’t have to worry about what you will receive as an answer. That is for orphans without a house to worry about; why would a person with a house worry about food?

▣ Main Body
Therefore, even when evangelizing, perform a proper forum. From now on, using our Friday-Saturday-Sunday, we must perform the temple construction forum in earnest. Then surely this comes first.

1. Temple within Me
The temple within me stands first. This is important.
[7 Bartizans]: This is called the 7 Bartizans.

2. Temple on My Path
[7 Journeys]: Then the temple is visible on the path I go. That is called the 7 Journeys.

3. Future Temple
[7 Guideposts]: Finally, the temple is visible in my future. That is called the 7 Guideposts. Already we see everything and go. God already completed the temple that will perform world evangelization, so how is He fulfilling it? Last week I went to Ulsan and said: Everyone had an expression of praying much, and prayer is prayer, but they had expressions of worrying much. During the Part 1 message, I gave the same message. God has already finished everything. How you go is what is important. God has already set it for us to go to the land of Canaan. How you go is important. Who goes and who cannot go is what is important. Already such amazing blessings are with us.

1. Cal, Olivet, Mark
This is called Calvary, Mount Olivet, and Mark’s Upper Room. Already before even going, the bartizan stood first. Having already finished at the place of going, He gave a definite mission at Mount Olivet and they experienced it at Mark’s Upper Room.

2. 3 Camps
Then on the path you go, from where does the journey start in earnest? it starts from going out as a missionary. Because it is the blessing you will receive, you must know. What is it that happens here? It is the 3 Camps. The Holy Spirit will lead you perfectly. And in the places you go, God has prepared perfect healing and the crushing of Nephilim. Therefore, there is no need to tempt many people or be [excessively] nice. He has prepared certain disciples. It means He has prepared the 7 Points. And what then?

3. Highway
To say you make the 7 Guideposts is literally making a highway. Now we are making a highway. The Three Courtyards. The Friday-Saturday-Sunday era. The Meditation era. We are making these. One day you will be startled. It is bound to happen. If you pave the road, cars are bound to travel. If we hadn’t paved the expressways in our country, what would have happened? Because of that, our country developed rapidly. Only when there is an expressway, a highway, do cars come and go. Every believer, gain this strength. Every meeting, do this. Why? Because you have to go this path. The temple must already be made within me. Paul, who realized this, said: Do you not know that you are God’s temple? He said the Holy Spirit is within you and do you not know you are the temple? There is an opportunity remaining for us.

▣ Conclusion

[Opportunity]
Because it is a blessing you will receive, it is an opportunity. First. A missionary who recovers church buildings (gyo-hoe-dang) is needed.
1. Church Building Recovery Missionary: It is a big problem now. Church buildings. Not “the church.” Because you are the church. Church buildings are all crumbling. Abroad. You must pray. It doesn’t end with simple temple construction.
2. Construction Missionary: And we need construction missionaries in the future. What does that mean? It doesn’t mean construction like ours. There is also construction where they build in a few days. When doing that, elders who do construction must jump in.
3. RUTC Missionary: In earnest, RUTC missionaries are needed to save the posterity, TCK, CCK, and NCK. This is an opportunity for us in the future. Right now, as individuals, you only need to be in this place. No need for answers. This is the answer. Then through you, such meetings occur. From that time, God performs this work. How thankful is that? It is certain. Missions Conference, Remnant Conference—as time goes, it will become globalized. Prepare completely with prayer. You all must also receive sufficient grace for the Missions Conference. Missionaries must feel something because of you after coming. They shouldn’t feel “they work really hard.” They must feel “This church is truly something of the Gospel. The real Gospel is different.” They must feel this. It is good for other people to see us and say “That person is truly a magnificent person,” but what is more important is seeing this person and [saying] “I want to believe in Christ. I want to believe in God.” God told Joshua He would be with him just as He was with Moses. That doesn’t mean Moses’ things are needed. It means “I who was with Moses will be with you.” Our missionaries must gain strength from this and go. What a blessed opportunity. Also, while we build the temple now, we must recover everything. We—starting from the Three Courtyards to the Highway—we have recovered all now. If we had built it 10 years ago, it would have been a disaster. According to our plan, we should have built it 10 years ago. By now the building would have been done with offerings as well. God has recovered every message. God is using you. God will use your posterity. I will pray.

Prayer. God, we thank You. Let us see the covenant being fulfilled during the week. Within that, let the Word of God that declares thanksgiving and glory be fulfilled. I pray in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
