I will now confess my faith through the Apostles' Creed: I believe in God the Father Almighty, creator of heaven and earth, and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord, who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died, and was buried. On the third day, He rose again from the dead; He ascended into heaven and sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty, from where He will come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the holy universal church, the communion of saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen. 

Hymn 552: When the morning sun rises, all creation becomes fresh; let me be the light in this world. Lord, help me as I go through life.

Let there be sunlight. Look at the new light that is coming; send it forth and let there be sunlight when doing the work of the Lord. Lord, help me to endure through the years as this world passes. Let there be sunlight. Once it passes, it does not return. When the swift light goes by, let me dedicate precious time to let there be sunlight. Lord, help me to endure through the years as I navigate this world. Let there be sunlight. Day and night, I dedicate my body and heart for You, displaying Your love; let there be sunlight. Lord, help me to endure through the years as I navigate this dark world. Let there be sunlight. Amen. 

Let us together recite the word of God that will be fulfilled, Acts 1:14. Let us read together the verse from Acts 1:14. They all joined together constantly in prayer, along with the women and Mary, the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers. Amen. What covenant are we holding onto as we pray earnestly?

It is important to pray a lot, but Jesus said to seek the Kingdom of God and His righteousness. The spiritual strength that can only be found here must first be restored in our Immanuel congregation. In the midst of doing many other things, it is easy to miss this important covenant. The disciples struggled with such concerns when they met Jesus. They wondered, What will happen to my future? Even though Jesus, who was taken up to heaven, said, He will come back to this earth just as you have seen Him go, the disciples were still worried about the future. They asked, When will the nation of Israel be restored, Jesus? What will happen to me when you go up to heaven? They were preoccupied with these worries. We need to find the answers to our lives based on the fundamental covenant that Jesus established. Until when will we rely on public opinion in our faith? Until when will we live our faith according to what people say? Jesus has spoken to us.

I have accomplished everything. The past, present, and future—I have accomplished everything. Holding onto the covenant of Mount Calvary, I must have the answers and responses to my past, my present, and my future within the Word. Ah, it is all accomplished. Hold onto that disease, and I encourage you to pray for 40 days for the work of the Kingdom of God to be fulfilled. Important responses as witnesses will come into your lives. It may seem like you are believing in Jesus because of that disease and praying for it, but one day, that disease will no longer hold any power over you. More importantly, the response of healing from that disease will definitely occur in your life. Truly, hold onto the covenant and pray. Why is that? All human diseases began in Genesis 3. The healing of all humanity was completed by the Christ, the offspring of the woman. Pray for it. First, you will be spiritually revived. Second, all the confusion in your heart and mind will be sorted out. Third, God will be in your life.

The ability you were given manifests. From that moment on, diseases cannot stop me. I encourage you all to really listen to your doctors and continuously breathe and pray about your ailments. This is because all human diseases stem from the mind and spiritual aspects. Jesus also said to cast your worries aside. Are there any congregation members suffering from pain due to illness or mental difficulties? Hold on to the covenant of Christ and breathe, pray, exercise, and read the Word 24 hours a day. The diseases stemming from idol worship passed down in your families will be healed in you. With that, you will become a witness. Jesus said that today you will be His witness. Jesus also mentioned one more thing: do not just look forward to the restoration of Jerusalem, but for 40 days, pray for the Kingdom of God and His works. We have 40 days.

What is the reason we cannot pray for God's kingdom and His work? You might think that you need to take care of many aspects of your personal life, family, lineage, and children, right? That is indeed true. However, in all these areas, continue to pray for the seven towers of prayer to be established. The important thing is that you will first discover that these prayers are not being offered. But when you focus on the seven towers—prayers that comfort people, prayers that revive the field, and prayers that revive the world and the times—when these prayers continue to be made, you will no longer struggle, conflict, or worry. Then, what will happen is that you will come to a point of only. What do we call that? We say only. When it becomes only, it becomes 24-hour prayer. When it becomes 24-hour prayer, spiritual strength, mental and emotional strength, and physical strength will come. Then, surely, the prayer topics you have presented—your children, your family, and your future—will be fulfilled.

The witness's response is coming. How much is the witness's response coming? It comes when the world evangelization of 237 countries and 5,000 ethnic groups aligns. That is the witness. What are you going to do with the money you earn from the bank? You can't even do world evangelization. The early church members were not wealthy like the Jews. Many church members are accumulating wealth, thinking they should do world evangelization, but that's not it. The person who has the covenant of Calvary Mountain, which Jesus said has been fulfilled, is the one who receives the response. I pray that Calvary Mountain becomes your response in the name of the Lord. May Namsan be your tower, and may your journey serve as a testament to your milestones. Truly, may you become solely dedicated to world evangelization in the name of the Lord. On my way to WC Ilsan, I met some young people who were heading to Seoul. I said, Let's have a meal, because I taught them when they were in college. So, a few of them...

I had a meal with some young people, and I happened to run into those who had gone to Seoul from our Immanuel Church. While we were having a brief meal, I thought about how, if the young people do not respond, they will lose their way in Seoul. They need to have a vision for the future, focusing on places like Galbongsan, Namsan, and the Upper Room. However, many of them are too concerned with material things. Their industries are about saving the 5,000 and the path of industrial missions, but if they remain stuck at the level of college students, is that acceptable? On the other hand, some young people have received guidance through the Word, prayer, and evangelism here and have gone to Seoul. Once in Seoul, they completely engage with the environment, and these young people are being guided and used there. You, who are in your 30s and 40s now...

There are very important generations in the church. The weak point is that those in their 30s and 40s lack the strength to fully engage. This generation is not materially lacking; rather, they are spiritually and mentally exhausted and desperate. Therefore, when problems arise for themselves or their children, those in their 30s and 40s need to enter into prayer and experience God's power. This needs to happen so that, like the disciples mentioned today, they will not ask other questions or be caught up in division or addiction. The disciples were divided, asking, When will the nation of Jerusalem be restored? and What will happen to our lives when Jesus ascends to heaven? But there is no problem because the covenant of Calvary, Mount Zion, and the Upper Room is present with me as a 24-hour response. In today's prayer notebook, it says that such a person is a watchman. This is the response from the Upper Room.

I believe you are the watchmen who enjoy 24 hours. What is a watchman? It is you, 24. So pray 24 hours. Change all your thoughts into prayers from the tower. Seven towers—does it sound complicated? It's simple. It shines light. The light of creation, the light of life. It shines light through the Word, prayer, and witnesses. Why is that? Because the field is living in darkness, amidst my creation, in a hellish background. People decorate themselves with what they have, thinking they will meet us, but people are waiting for the gospel. They are thirsty for Christ. We are struggling with how to evangelize, but unbelievers are suffering immensely under the devil until they meet us. Believers need to have spiritual strength to spiritually comfort those people and to bring them to life with God's Word. And I hope that you will change every breath into power 24 hours a day. How can you do 24 when you are busy?

Everyone is busy, but it becomes 24. Everyone is busy, but it becomes. In Genesis 3, it becomes 24. What does this mean? Everyone, focus on what I'm saying. In Psalm 90, verses 14 to 17, it says: Satisfy us in the morning with Your steadfast love. What are we satisfied with? It's our spiritual state. It says, Make us glad for as many days as You have afflicted us. Everyone, when you pray for 40 days about the Kingdom of God and His work, responses that become 24 in your life will come to you. What happens to diseases, suffering, and problems? God will give us responses according to the years we have endured affliction. It says, Let Your work be shown to Your servants, and Your glorious power to their children.

This is a story about a legacy. It is not something made by humans; it is stated in God's word. And what does it say? May our Lord's grace be upon us, and establish the work of our hands for us; yes, establish the work of our hands. What does this mean? It means that God's eternal work is in our industry. Alright? I bless you in the name of the Lord to become witnesses who hold onto the testimony of His word. Focus on 24, pray 24, breathe and empower. I bless you in the name of the Lord to enjoy the blessings of 40 days of prayer in your current situation. There may be many confusing matters for you, and you might have significant problems. You may also have many weak saints and fragile family members. Please write down their names and rise up to pray for them in the prayers of the seven towers. The remnants should all take part in this.

Isn't that so? I wrote down the names of those I wanted to pray for and prayed for about two to three days. Then, yesterday morning, when I had some time, I called four of the remnants. I asked how they were doing and listened to their situations. I also shared the messages I had received, and while it didn't bring about a huge change, it was a matter of God's word being communicated between us. These days, we have phones and KakaoTalk, so there are many ways to connect. However, what often fails is spiritual prayer. We tend to think we need to do something ourselves, but when true prayer occurs, the Spirit of the Triune God, who transcends time and space, comes upon the people we are praying for, our workplaces, and our situations. You must believe that this will allow you to overcome without fighting and without being discouraged in your field.

On that Wednesday, I met with a diverse group from my region. After hearing about their experiences, I learned that 50% of the area practices shamanistic beliefs. What I observed was that it was a country deeply engaged in shamanistic rituals. This is a nation in West Africa, and through a professor there, I received the Remnant Gospel. How important is this? The tower is crucial. The Remnant engages in 23 hours of prayer. I understand what that means because in the areas where shamanism is practiced, people are still sacrificing animals, holding rituals, and praying with blood offerings. How can we evangelize to the 5,000 ethnic groups across 237 countries? We must hold onto God's precise covenant that transcends time and space and enter into 24 hours of prayer. At that time, God's absolute tower will respond. What kind of absolute tower will respond?

Today, it is written in the prayer notebook that the response from Namsan becomes my eternal absolute business. It means that the Kingdom of God and its work are connected to Namsan. On the day of Pentecost, when the Holy Spirit descended upon the Upper Room, its power becomes my absolute tower. That is the eternal work. With the power of the Holy Spirit that was given on Pentecost, we embark on the journey of world evangelization. And the absolute tower of the Gospel of the mountain becomes the eternal absolute business, the eternal absolute work, and the eternal absolute inheritance that will be fulfilled through this covenant. Immanuel believers, hold on to the fundamental covenant and pray with focus. If one person becomes this, the era will change. Isn't it written in today's prayer notebook? One person, Moody; one person, Crosby—saved the era, saved the world, and left behind an eternal business, an eternal work, and an eternal inheritance. One person can truly be used by God.

The message is that the grace of the two towers will come upon each of you. Do not listen to people or be deceived. Do not look at your circumstances or your situation; only hold onto Christ, only the Kingdom of God, only the fullness of the Holy Spirit, and absolutely cling to the answer. I bless you in the name of the Lord to gain strength in the 24 hours of prayer. You can be at home; you can be in illness. If everything is not okay, then nothing is okay. Therefore, Jesus said, When the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will receive power and be my witnesses in Jerusalem, all Judea, Samaria, and to the ends of the earth. 

On Tuesday evening, after finishing my ministry, I was trying to exercise at the marine park. I was jogging and working out when I saw our high school remnants. As I passed by, I didn’t intentionally acknowledge them, but I prayed for those remnants.

I exercised, but then I saw that our high school remnants and the remnants from Chicago were also working out together. So I went over to greet them, prayed with them, and sent them off. They were there to exercise at the Marine Museum around 8 o'clock. As I was watching, I thought about this week's message: we need to be concerned about saving the next generation. If we don't establish our future generations with spiritual service, it will be a big problem. So I kept praying throughout my exercise, asking for the background blessing of the throne that can overcome my limitations. Next week, we have our elementary school Bible school. We need to nurture them with spiritual service. If we let them become worldly before that, it will be hard for them when they go out into the world. We need to finish this before they graduate from college. You know I'm in charge of the college ministry.

When you go to college, it can be tough. Before graduating, we need to talk about the power of the gospel for these remnants by looking at the lives of the seven remnants. We need to help these remnants experience the power of prayer. We need to teach these remnants how God works through the seven remnants who will save this era. This needs to be taught historically and ecclesiastically. I ask you to establish a tower of prayer for our future generations, 24/7. Next week, from Thursday to Saturday, our elementary school remnants will have Bible school. Pray that our future generations can become spiritual summits that do not serve under the summit of Satan but can stand at the spiritual summit and reach the summit of Satan. We need to raise our future generations to be children who pray and evangelize for their friends and classmates. Today, God has spoken.

May the Immanuel believers who are restoring the blessings of the watchtower through 24-hour prayer in the upper room of Mount Calvary and Namsan be blessed in the name of the Lord. Living God, we ask that You govern our hearts, thoughts, souls, and spirits with the Spirit of the Triune God. Lord, may Your kingdom come to the 237 nations and tribes, the sick in the church, and the leaders of the world, transcending time and space through the power of the throne, the background of the throne, and the history of the throne. Please work with the power that breaks all the darkness of the rulers of the air. May all Immanuel believers hold on to the covenant of the upper room of Mount Calvary and Namsan, and as they engage in 24-hour prayer, may they become witnesses of the answers that are fulfilled in the work of God's kingdom, in the field, in the church, in their homes, and in their children.

In the name of the living Jesus Christ, I give thanks and pray. Amen.
