Prayer Journal: October 31, 2025
01. Feb. 2025 Core Training Service
Scripture Reading: Romans 16:25-27
Today is our University Missions Department special service. The important content will be addressed at our University Missions Department retreat. Today I will limit myself to speaking only about evangelism.
(Elders—teams of five as one unit, young adults—three courtyards, RT—the three-day weekend age, university—planning)
In our church, special, unnoticeable evangelism teams have been formed. This is extremely important. Therefore our church leaders, especially the elders, must open their eyes to the phrase “teams of five as one unit.” This was the field for commissioning missionaries. And for our young adults, the three courtyards—since these are 237, healing, and summit—are very important. When multiethnic people come, young adults are in a better position to guide them a bit. We must help the Remnants become the main figures of the three-day weekend age. I am telling our university teams to plan all of this. You must do it. The early church had this. Because Peter was a bit lacking in such aspects, God raised up Paul. And without this kind of mindset, world missions is impossible. Even just knowing these things brings you answers.
Today, because our important people have come to greet us, I gave a message. A prepared Remnant, Pastor Hwang Seon-gyu and his wife, who are going to Canada, came. Because this relates to you, I gave three messages: “Serve the pastor.” I said, “Since you are going as an associate pastor, serve the senior pastor.” You must serve him after God. “And after you arrive in Canada, wait for God’s absolute plan to be revealed.” You must throw away your own thoughts. Only then will you see. Do not worry about your future. Do not calculate. Only then will you see God’s absolute plan. And I asked for one more thing: “Do 5,000 tribes 24.” If you do that, everything will be done.
Also, Pastor Lee Daha from Jukjeon came today to greet us, so I gave him a message. “What revives church members is the message.” I gave three points. “When church members listen, they must come to know, ‘Ah, this is the gospel.’ You must help them see that.” “When church members listen, they must gain strength and come alive.” And the last thing is this: “You must change the thoughts of the church members.” Everything is God’s blessing, yet they think it is not. If so, they cannot receive that blessing. What if a problem has come? It is a blessing.
Because our nation has been noisy lately, I have been led to continual prayer. While praying, an answer simply came to me. If the president is impeached, it will be a loss for the Democratic Party and a chance to realize something. If impeachment does not happen, it will be a loss for the People Power Party. Then again, it will be a chance to realize something. Our nation will not collapse. There are servants who do world evangelization. Therefore I am certain. Whatever happens, I said I am thankful.
If many people do not understand this third point, they cannot interpret the Bible and cannot understand the seven Remnants. Then they will miss all answers. I told this to Pastor Lee Daha. And I said, “Prepare a vessel that can embrace many people.” If you cannot embrace many people, world evangelization is difficult. I am saying this because it is something our university students must take into account.
(Romans 16:1–27)
You possess this blessing (elders—teams of five as one unit, young adults—three courtyards, RT—the three-day weekend age, university—planning). It is in the Bible. Where in the Bible? It is summarized in Romans 16. It is found here and there, but it is summarized there.
(1 Corinthians 16:14–24)
It is summarized in 1 Corinthians 16.
(Colossians 4:1–18)
It is summarized in Colossians 4:1–18. Some people are repeated. But these people were special evangelism teams. Now we must receive this answer.
So begin gently. In some respects it starts in comfortable meetings. Then the university must keep urging like this: “Elder, please come.” Like this. Elders are busy. Because they do not have it in mind, say, “Please come.” Young adults are a bit busier than you. So you must gently entice them and do it this way. That is planning. And keep calling the Remnants, like this. They all have their own things to do, but separately. In this way, you must keep telling the pastor about such blessings.
A team like this for evangelism planning started a bit in Seoul and now is in a bit of a situation, but it is the most important answer in the Bible. To do this more in earnest, I will give three messages at our university retreat.
Today, while looking at the role of the church, I am saying you should think at least once about the evangelism movement. Why? Because the evangelism currently done in the church does not bring church growth. Therefore you must remember this.
That is why we cannot keep up with the three organizations. The three organizations do evangelism by system. Have you ever heard China telling the three organizations to get out? They do not. The church does not do system-based evangelism. That is why we keep getting driven out. It is frightening. The three organizations penetrate anywhere.
Therefore university students must come to realize this. You are the hope; if you fail to realize it, you will simply grow older and become the same kind of adults again. In the end it is system evangelism, media evangelism, and bartizan evangelism.
▣ Introduction: The Prayer God Gives
Then, what is the most important thing to do this work? The prayer that God gives must begin. This is extremely important.
- Old Testament era
Then concerning the prayer that God gives, let us briefly look at the Old Testament era. God gave Abraham a prayer topic. He kept losing hold of it. So after suffering much, he realized. Therefore we must pray the prayer that God gives. One person realized this from the very beginning: Joseph. Therefore for Joseph, everything was an answer. He suffered greatly, but it was not suffering. It was blessing. This (the prayer God gives) is the answer. First, what is it? Your direction must align with God. Next, the three courtyards—your goal must align with God. Your prayer must align with God. The One who answers is God, so prayer must align with God. Is not God the One who rules our life? If so, I am now speaking of the prayer God gives in the Old Testament era. Moses was given a sure prayer topic in childhood, but he kept doing other things and lost it. At age eighty he realized it. Then the work began. Also, there were two who firmly held the prayer God gave from a very young age: Samuel and David. Therefore works had no choice but to arise. You must remember this. “Not Gilgal, not Jericho, not Bethel—grant me a double portion of Your spirit.” He knew what God gives. This is extremely important. - J-X
There is prayer that Jesus Christ Himself taught. Three things.
1) The throne
He explained for forty days the blessing of the throne.
2) 300%
The filling of the Holy Spirit—this we call 300%. University students must surely remember this.
3) Only (uniqueness, re-creation)
He explained the method—the easy way to receive. Only. “Only” is the same word as “uniqueness.” The same meaning. “Re-creation.” This is the prayer Jesus taught.
- Paul—Acts 19:8
Paul prayed this properly. In Acts 19:8 it is about the kingdom of God. Paul did three things—three.
1) Multiethnic peoples
Wherever he went, led by the Holy Spirit, he opened the doors to the multiethnic peoples.
2) Healing—Nephilim
He healed the Nephilim, the root of diseases that absolutely cannot be cured. It took place, did it not?
3) The synagogue
He used the synagogue strategy that completely saves the future. Therefore answers could not help but come. University students must surely remember this.
Then we cannot just end with this. If so, what should we do? You are the main figures to save the church. You must surely remember this.
[ Turning Points of the Age ]
There are very important turning points by which God changed the age.
[ 1. Calvary – Mt Olive – Mark’s upper room ]
What is the first? The disciples who had been taught for three years during the public ministry, and then the Jews—they would not do. He called the disciples who saw Calvary to Mt Olive. And He sent them to Mark’s upper room. This is a tremendous turning point of the age. Until then they were just the crowds, but now they are disciples.
[ 2. Acts 11:1–18, 11:19 (Antioch) ]
Next is Acts 11:1–18 and 11:19—Antioch. This becomes a tremendous turning point. Those who received grace in Mark’s upper room hit a limit; that alone was not enough. This opened the way over here.
[ 3. Acts 19:21, 23:11, 27:24 ]
Third: those who knew “You must also see Rome,” “You must testify in Rome,” “You must stand before Caesar.” These are extremely important. Knowing such things, plan—this is what I am saying. University students must plan evangelism. You can do it as much as you like. Pastors must utilize the whole congregation so that they may receive such blessings. You can gently do this as much as you like. I did it even when I was an associate pastor. It is good.
But this is not yet another meeting or program. You must truly receive answers this year.
Because Paul did this properly, what blessing came out?
[ 1. The back-side covenant ]
He made them fully realize the back-side covenant. This is what we call an answer. A day will come when the back-side covenant becomes clear to you. There is no need to hurry. In some respects, this keeps coming.
[ 2. Romans 16:17–20 ]
And it clearly appears today: at that time, Satan will kneel before you. Before those who have God’s covenant as the back-side covenant, he utterly kneels. Darkness knelt before Joseph. It knelt before Moses. It is bound to kneel—because they firmly held the true back-side covenant. This is the final answer for you university students. “Ah, I must do this!” That is what comes out. If you truly know this prayer, it will come out.
[ 3. Romans 16:25–27 ]
Finally, look: He said, “I will give what was kept hidden.” “I will give what was hidden.” When? What was hidden before the ages. It will be forever and ever, but that is the secret. “I give to you what was kept hidden.” Truly, we have received everything.
▣ Main Message: The Romans 16 Team
When this takes place, an important team composition is formed. How? Three things appear.
- The 24 Prayer Team
The people of Romans 16 are the 24 Prayer Team. - The Evangelism 24 Team
Not just casually, but an Evangelism 24 Team emerged, completely 24. It becomes like this. - The Planning 24 Team
Finally, the Planning 24 Team emerges. We use such terms, but in the Bible these were the actual people.
1. The 24 Prayer Team
1) What He kept hidden
As said earlier, to these people God promised to give what He had kept hidden. University students, 24 prayer is not difficult. It is enjoying the most blessed and most powerful thing.
2) What He kept hidden in the field
He promised to give what He kept hidden within the field.
3) What He kept hidden in eternity (the future)
And what else? He gives what He kept hidden in the future. The true answer is what God brings to us. If we remain within this blessing, this covenant, God brings it to us. Starting today, gently, in each church this team (elders—teams of five as one unit, young adults—three courtyards, RT—the three-day weekend age, university—planning) must arise. There is so much to plan. We must not lose hold of it, right?
2. The Evangelism 24 Team
The Evangelism 24 Team emerged.
1) Protectors
2) Co-workers
3) Hosts
Protectors, co-workers, and hosts—these are the Evangelism 24 Team.
- The Planning 24 Team
At last, the Planning 24 Team emerged. What do they plan?
1) A secret corps
A secret corps that stakes their lives. You may not understand it well now, but at that time you would. You must not make it noticeable. It is a secret corps.
2) R.M.
And they went in earnest to the synagogues and raised the Remnants. You can begin now.
3) Holy Mason
And we must prepare a temple that has the three courtyards. Try planning—it will come out.
[ The Romans 16 Team ]
Then this proceeded exactly as in the Bible. Where? As I said earlier. Especially though Corinth was important and Colossae was important, we had to save Rome in order to save the 237 nations, so it was the Romans 16 Team. Our university students must restore this blessing. Elders, gently, our church leaders, let us pray. If a person of evangelism has attached to you, it means you are truly a blessed person. If, during my lifetime, a person of prayer has been connected to me, there is nothing greater than this. If at last a person who can plan world evangelization has met with you, there is no greater blessing. When you look at those who surely fail, you will see that connections begin with disputes and fights that have nothing to do with any of this.
▣ Conclusion
What is the conclusion? What must the university realize? Adults do not know.
- System (disciples)
From now on it must be disciple-centered system evangelism. If you do not know this system, you cannot evangelize Muslims, you cannot evangelize China. There is a way to quietly evangelize North Korea. That is the system. You must surely keep this in mind. University students can do it. - Media (epistles)
In the end it is media. Even back then, they already sent epistles. - Bartizan (healing)
In the end, what is it? It is healing. We call this bartizan evangelism. Only this can change the future world. With what will we change the world? With a system made by those who truly enjoy the gospel and possess the power of the throne. University students, take a close look at the church. Here and there it has been set up so that the gospel is not properly testified. This is Satan’s trick. It must be changed.
It is almost the pastors’ responsibility. Church doors in America have all closed. That is why we do RU. It is the theologians’ responsibility. The churches of Europe have already closed. It is the responsibility of those pastors and theologians. What did they teach? They are teaching Judaism—Judaism that Jesus said is of no use. We must teach the gospel—the gospel that gives life to people, the gospel that changes all darkness and the bartizan. Do that—that is what I am saying.
Therefore there is only one way. How will we save our nation? How will we save those Muslims? How will we save North Korea and China? It is the system. And without showing at all, media must ride upon that system and go in. Since the whole world is sick, what is the true bartizan? Healing. It becomes like this. University students must understand.
