Watchman of Prayer

▣ Introduction. The Watchman

You must know this.

1. The Throne

Because the watchman is not just any watchman, they are waiting for the power and blessing of the Throne.

2. The Kingdom

Then the Kingdom of God is absolutely bound to descend. This (The Throne) is the background, and (The Kingdom) is what is unseen. That is why you must know what prayer is. Because the watchman is the watchman of prayer. Our background is not hell, but the Throne. Unbelievers are bound to have spiritual problems like that. Because their background is hell. That’s why life itself is hell. Going home is also hell. They fight to the death. It has to be that way. Our background is the Throne. Jesus said, “Pray that the Kingdom may come.” He said this. He said, “Seek first his kingdom and his righteousness.” This is the prayer Jesus taught. Then what kind of answer comes?

3. The Work

He spoke about the end times. He called it “the work of the Kingdom of God.” This is how it happens. This is the answer. The watchman waits for this.

▣ Main

Now, we should look at the Bible a little bit.

1. Isaiah 62:6-12

The story of the watchman appears here. It tells the secret to victory when Israel was taken captive to Babylon. “I have set watchmen on your walls.”

1) Day and Night

“Day and night, give the Lord no rest.” This means He answers day and night.

2) Highway

“Build up the highway.”

3) All Peoples (Banner)

“Lift up a banner for all peoples.” This is the kind of watchman you are.

2. Ezekiel 3:18-20

Next, it is recorded in Ezekiel 3:18-20: “Now, let it be known to the many who are dying.”

1) Warning

You have to let them know, don’t you? The watchman is the person who notifies. They notify, “A crisis has come.” What if an accident occurs because you did not notify?

2) Bloodguilt

He spoke of “bloodguilt.” If you notify them, and they don’t listen, there is nothing you can do, but what if they die because you did not notify them? He spoke to us this way. That is the kind of watchman they are. If an urgent accident occurs, you have to let them know, don’t you? This (Main Point 1) is the watchman who guards this power (Throne, Kingdom, Work) in advance.

3. Acts 1:1-14

Finally, Jesus established an immense bartizan.

1) Bartizan

The watchman must have a bartizan, right?

2) Journey

And they are not just any watchman, and it is not just any bartizan; they are a watchman who goes on a moving Journey.

3) Guidepost

The 300% answer comes everywhere. Guidepost. The Remnants must remember this.

▣ Conclusion

This is the conclusion.

1. Protector

The watchman is a person who protects. We call them ‘protectors.’ They are people who protect.

2. Notifier

This watchman notifies. They don’t just notify.

3. Delivery (Express Messenger)

The watchman also replaces and delivers so that the next, other person can come. This is called an express messenger (pabal). Do you know the word pabal? In the old days, there were no phones. In the old days, there was no TV for news either. But one person committed a crime. So, they were exiled to that island. Some people had to stay there for the rest of their lives, but some were executed at the appropriate time. Even for the execution, it was not like today; they were given a dose of poison in a bowl of medicine to make them die. But the King looked and realized that this was a false accusation. This person was confined on that island, but it was a false accusation. So the King would give a document. “Hurry and go inform the local governor of this and save that person.” If it were now, we would just call, but back then, there were no phones. They had to go there immediately, directly. That is called pabal. But one person cannot go the entire way. They arrived at Cheongdo, but they cannot go any further. They have to go to Waegwan, so someone would be waiting in Cheongdo to receive this and go to Waegwan. That is the pabal. And what happens if someone drops this document on the way? Then, the person confined on that island dies without knowing anything. It is that important. You, the Remnants, can do this (being the watchman of prayer) better than the adults. The watchman of prayer. That is why you become the spiritual summit before becoming the summit. You must be so. I bless you in the name of Jesus Christ to have a day of healing and great strength all day long today. I will pray.

Prayer. We thank God. May today be a day of healing. May it be a day to gain great strength, and may it be a time when the Kingdom of God and His work are accomplished. May all unbelief and the power of darkness be bound, may all systems blocking the Gospel be bound, and may all curses hindering the work of saving people be bound. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
