Prayer Journal: September 16, 2025
21. Dec. 2024 Core Training Service
Scripture Reading: Acts 11:19
We must first receive the blessing to save the 5000 tribes. Many people go out to evangelize, but before going to evangelize, you must first receive the blessing that allows you to evangelize. This is extremely important.
▣ Introduction
In truth, the responsibility does not lie with the elders. It lies with the theologians and pastors. They repeatedly fail to teach the gospel.
1. Genesis 3:15 [Slavery]
This is the first gospel: “The offspring of the woman will crush the serpent’s head.” They keep failing to teach this. Because of that, people became slaves.
2. Exodus 3:18 [Captivity]
Since they became slaves, God revealed His word to a chosen person again: “Go and offer the blood sacrifice.”
America, which has the most theologians, is rapidly closing its churches. The theologians and pastors must repent. Europe has already completely shut down. There are many theologians in Europe, but the seminaries are empty—no one attends. This is a disaster. And now, in Europe, there are no seminary students, no youth in the churches. The only people left are elderly women with nowhere else to go. This is a crisis.
And what’s worse? They are not even living well. Suicide rates are extremely high. Almost everyone is addicted to drugs. As for mental illness, it hardly needs to be mentioned—countless people are afflicted. And yet, the gospel is still not proclaimed.
This time, they were taken captive. It’s beyond understanding. Strangely, even the church members themselves enjoy something else more than the gospel. Think about it—once your taste is imprinted, you only desire that food. Koreans prefer Korean food. Japanese prefer their food. Europeans prefer bread and pastries. Once imprinted, other things don’t taste right.
This must be taken seriously. If we do not imprint the gospel into our remnants, if we do not imprint prayer into them before sending them out, they will suffer without exception. If remnants are imprinted with prayer, they will accomplish world evangelization. This must be remembered. Do not listen to other words. Lies must not be heard. They are all lies.
3. Isaiah 7:14 [Colonization]
So God said again: “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel.” But now they had already become colonized.
4. Matthew 16:16 (20) [Wandering People]
At this time, Jesus asked His disciples at a place whose name was formed by both Caesar and Philip the king—truly a strange place. Peter answered, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
But in verse 20, Jesus told them, “Do not tell anyone about this.” Why? Because Peter still had too much left to learn. It wasn’t even the beginning yet. From this point, they became wanderers. Their descendants were completely ruined.
No matter how smart, how well educated, without the gospel and without prayer, life becomes unbearably difficult. Yet pastors fail to imprint the gospel and fail to teach prayer. Because of this, our remnants go out into the world and suffer all their lives. Some even go abroad and fall into drugs; others end up losing their minds.
5. Romans 1:16–17
This is why Paul, though persecuted, declared: “I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes… The righteous shall live by faith.” This must be remembered.
[The Mystery of the Gospel]
So then, what is the Christian life? It is enjoying the mystery of the gospel. We must enjoy the blessing of salvation, and the mystery of the gospel must be enjoyed as the essence of our walk of faith.
1. The Three Feasts
God first spoke of this to Moses: the three feasts.
Passover: The day when applying the blood brings salvation.
Pentecost: In the wilderness, you overcome by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Feast of Ingathering: The great background of prayer is the power of the throne. God already proclaimed this in advance.
2. Bartizan, journey, guidepost
Jesus Himself spoke of the bartizan, the journey, and the guidepost.
3. Paul – Acts 19:8
There was one who truly understood all of this—Paul. Acts 19:8. Remember this well: sanctification is not about becoming like a Pharisee but about becoming like Christ. Sanctification exists in other religions too—“live a good life.” But for us, sanctification means following Christ.
▣ Main Message – [Concentration] [Prayer]
From now on, you must engage in at least one time of concentrated prayer each day. Older believers must do this to maintain their health. Concentration. For remnants, their brains will begin to come alive when they do concentrated prayer. This is essential—at least once a day.
In my case, I spend almost the entire day in concentrated prayer. My situation demands it. After finishing this, I must prepare for Sunday, then prepare for other things. So for me, it is practically 24 hours. For you, once a day is enough. In fact, for remnants, even once a month would bring results—remnants are that spiritually advantaged. Older grandmothers may concentrate yet see little fruit, but young remnants will see powerful results with just once. That’s how advantageous it is.
After the age of 25, the brain and lungs begin to slow down. That is why you must continue concentrated prayer. In doing so, pray through the introduction we’ve covered. Within this, the bartizan of prayer, the journey, and the guidepost must be established. The Triune God’s bartizan must be set within me. As these three answers arise, I must walk this journey. Along the way, it is crucial to establish guideposts. These guideposts are tied to church growth, world missions, the prosperity of your industries, and even to the “300%.”
1. Calvary (John 19:30) – True disciple
Jesus said, “It is finished.” At Calvary, which guidepost must be set? That Christ has already finished everything. Those who understand this are true disciples. Meeting just one true disciple can bring about world-shaking works.
Elders must keep this in mind: be kind and helpful to all, but seek out the true disciple. Pastors, likewise, must remember this. Pour out love and help to everyone, but spiritually focus on the true disciple. Why? Because outside of this, people collapse. Some even end up leaving the church entirely. Many grew up in pastor’s families yet left because they never heard the gospel.
The true disciple marks the true beginning. “But my problems aren’t finished yet.” That is the beginning. “Why is my family like this?” That is the beginning. “Why can’t I study well?” That is the beginning. If you miss this starting point, you lose the way. In every region, when you enter a university, find just one true disciple—that’s all. The rest doesn’t matter. The crowd cannot be sustained anyway. This is the answer: the true disciple.
2. Mount of Olives
Here, we set another guidepost. At the Mount of Olives, the absolute bartizan was established. What was given here?
Forty – Mission.
For forty days, Jesus spoke intensely about one thing: the mission.
The Throne – From the throne, answers descend.
God’s Kingdom – Your studies and work must be transformed into the work of God’s kingdom.
The Work – Never lose hold of this.
3. Mark’s Upper Room
At Mark’s Upper Room, five critical things unfolded:
The three feasts.
Multiethnic ministry.
The future: visions, dreams, and prophecy.
The rise of 3,000 disciples.
The daily and weekly gatherings.
Of these, the most important is the three feasts. From the beginning, this was the covenant. And as they held onto it, 3,000 disciples arose. Remember this well. Even your studies must follow this pattern.
4. Antioch – Turning point of the age
At Antioch, the age was turned. A new era began. Notice this well: while daily events matter, the true turning points of history are even more important.
Those scattered because of Stephen’s persecution gathered there. And to that place, God sent Paul. World missions began. Remnants, you need not worry about your future. All your worries are groundless.
5. Asia – Acts 13:1–12 (300%)
Finally, they went to the mission field for the first time: Asia. In Acts 13:1–12, they went out fully prepared with “300%.” Evangelism must be done this way. Your studies also must be done this way. Never miss it. Otherwise, world missions cannot be fulfilled.
Why? Because unbelievers—the Nephilim—have taken all the money. A few blockchain experts control the financial world now. What we are worrying about and preparing today will be useless tomorrow. We must prepare for the future. You are the protagonists of 2030 to 2080. Your era is still ahead. Prepare with 300%.
The standard is simple: receive the perfect leading of the Holy Spirit. That is prayer. Believe firmly in the answer, and if you don’t see it yet, wait until it is revealed. Through the work and fruit of the Holy Spirit—this is 300%.
6. Macedonia – Turning point
This was when the door was blocked. This is a crucial turning point. Especially for those in industry, you must gain this power. The best method? If you cannot see it, do not proceed. Why keep doing what is not clear?
7. Rome – The absolute bartizan
Finally, Rome. This, above all, was the “absolute bartizan.” Establish absolute bartizans everywhere. Worry about nothing—not even about your studies. Without 300% preparation, you won’t even be able to survive, much less evangelize. You must have strength.
Remember: this is not just a percentage. It is the reality. 100% toward myself, 100% toward the field, and 100% toward the future—that is 300%.
Parents will give their opinions, schools will offer good advice, but do not be deceived. Do not worry. Whatever university you attend, pray, and your talents will emerge. Build your 300%. With 300%, you will inevitably gain wealth. You need resources to give offering. You need resources to fulfill world missions. Money is not the essence—it is only a token, a sign.
So remember: next year, our elders and businesspeople must truly establish this. These guideposts are crucial.
▣ Conclusion
Therefore, the conclusion is this: the work will be fulfilled through the scattered ones.
