?New words?
(Exodus 34:10~17)
Introduction
The Bible is the only book on earth that explains to us how Satan is destroying people. With that in the background, today?s Word is explaining something. God is telling the Israelites to get rid of all the idols and Asherah poles. The Bible records in Revelations that Satan fell from heaven. He is the reason for the destruction of Adam and Eve, and for our destruction as well. For this reason Genesis 3:15 promises that the Offspring of the woman will crush the head of the serpent, and that serpent is Satan. 1 John 3:8 states that the reason why the Son of God appeared was to destroy the devil?s work. Many people, however, are oblivious to this. The Bible states that this is a fact, but people are unaware of this. Right now, so many people in the field are worshiping idols, and as a result, spiritual problems plow into their lives. If we lose hold of these aspects, we lose hold of so many things. Why do people kill themselves? Luke 22:3 states that the devil entered into the heart of Judas Iscariot and gave him the thought to take his own life. 2 Thessalonians 2:10 says that the activities of Satan can be seen in people who are being destroyed, and he works to bring destruction to people. Ephesians 6:12 says that our struggle is not against flesh and blood; Paul, who wrote this, said that our fight is against the authorities and forces of evil in the dark realms. There is a need for us to open our eyes to the spiritual perspective. The devil is unseen to the eyes, but he continues to prompt us into failure and destruction. Ephesians 6:13 says that he will drive us into destruction until the very end. Ephesians 6:16 states that he is shooting flaming arrows at us. When we realize this, we can realize a great many subsequent things. After realizing this, I discovered the reason why I must pray. After realizing that this demonic culture is seeping into the world, I realized the reason why we must establish a Remnant culture. Only after realizing this, did I realize the true reason for evangelism. This is also the reason why God promised in Genesis 3:15 that the Offspring of the woman would crush the head of the serpent. John 1:12 says, ?Yet to all who received Him, those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God.? We are children of God. We must realize this fact. Then, what did God tell the Israelites today?
1. He told them to hold onto the new words and rise to the challenge (privilege of being a child)
Right now, all the fields are covered in darkness. However, God gives the promise that He will do wonders never before done in any nation in all the world. This is something that you cannot understand if you don?t understand the basis for the forces of darkness. How can we only believe in the things that are visible? If this were true, how would we be able to believe in God, or the Holy Spirit who is unseen to our eyes? The majority of people do not believe in the Word of God. May you open your spiritual eyes so that today, all the darkness in your field and your family may completely be destroyed. If you shine the light, the darkness will naturally flee. All the answers are written in verse 10. It states, ?The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the Lord, will do for you.? Verse 10 says, ?What I will do for you is awesome.? This means that when all the idol-worshipers in Canaan see the Israelites, they will discover that the work of God is awesome. The unbelievers will be in awe when they see the blessings that you have received, and they will return back to the Lord. As we read through the book of Exodus, there is one thing that the Israelites do not know. God is trying to place His eternal Word into the Ark of the Covenant. However, the Israelites do not know this. In addition, the jar of manna and Aaron?s budded staff would also be placed in the Ark of the Covenant. However, the Israelites did not know this. In the future, God wanted to build a temple to house the Ark. This is the plan of God, but the Israelites did not know that. In the midst of this, the Israelites made a series of mistakes?namely, they made the golden calf and worshiped idols. Verse 10 says, ?I am making a covenant with you. You will know that I am Lord.? Before we work with people, we must make a covenant with God first. People of God must receive the strength of God before doing work. We must establish a covenant with the Lord prior to working with people.
2. Establish a covenant with the Lord
God already promised Moses in Exodus 20 that He would be with him with His mighty hand. In today?s Scripture reading, God was re-establishing this covenant. Exodus 20:23 says, ?My angel will go ahead of you and cut off your enemies.? He also promises that He will heal their diseases. Verse 27 says, ?I will send my terror and drive them into confusion.? He stated that He would send hornets to send the 7 tribes into confusion. Do you truly want to receive answers? Then, you must hold onto the new words of God in the Gospel. As you live your life in the world, you must first receive the strength that God gives you. What do verses 13~15 say? They say to destroy the sacred stones, cut down Asherah poles, do not worship any other god, and destroy the altars. What does this mean?
3. This means to possess the strength to overcome the disasters.
Right now, there are so many disasters coming outside in the world. You must hold onto the fact that God will reveal that He is God through you in the world. This is His covenant to you. God also promises that He will block all your enemies. The third promise that He gave us is that we will have victory in spiritual battle.
Conclusion
There are many words in the Bible that have been given to us in the Bible for us to truly receive answers. 1 John 3:8 states, ?The reason why the Son of God appeared is to destroy the devil?s work.? Hold onto the Word of the Bible today, and hold onto the Word of the covenant. You can easily hold onto the Word of the covenant to receive answers to prayer. First, unseen to our eyes, spiritual problems have seeped into the lives of all of individuals. Second, spiritual problems have plowed into the culture and education. For this reason, we must hold onto this covenant and begin this movement. We must hold onto this covenant and do the evangelism movement. The Bible tells us, ?Yet to all who received Him, to those who believed in His name, He gave the right to become children of God.? Luke 10:19 says, ?I have given you all authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and destroy the works of the enemy.? Hold onto this and restore prayer. Before realizing this, I didn?t know the reason to pray or evangelize. When I began to go out into the field, I realized that all people are worshiping idols, and as a consequence, they are facing such destruction. That?s why I realized that we must deliver this truth. Because you are children of God, all you need to do is hold onto this covenant and pray. What is the hidden aspect that people of the world do not know? There are so many intellectuals and so many religions, but what are the aspects that all these people and organizations do not know? God has sent Jesus as the Christ to destroy the forces of darkness. This is the key. 1 Peter 2:9 says that He has called all the believers to declare this light. If you just hold onto this covenant, the answers will come. Some people think this is difficult, but it is not difficult in the least. The moment you hold onto the covenant in faith, the darkness will flee. If someone with this covenant is in the military, the darkness in the military will flee. However, we have lost hold of this. We must remember that if someone with this covenant is in the field, the forces of darkness in that field will flee. However, this is something that believers do not believe in. We just need to know this blessing. May you enjoy this blessing throughout this week. God promises us that He will perform miracles that no one has seen. He says that all people will know that God is our Lord. He promised that unbelievers would be thrown into terror. You must take courage. Wherever you go, people will be saved and the forces of darkness will flee. The moment you hold onto this, the door of evangelism will open. I bless you in the name of Jesus that all the forces of darkness in your field may truly be destroyed. This is the Gospel.

God, we thank You for calling us as Your children. May today be a day for us to hold onto Your Word. Wherever we go, may people be saved. Just as today?s Scripture reading says, wherever we go, may the forces of darkness flee. May this be the time for us to believe in this fact. In Jesus Christ?s name we pray. Amen.

?The people who moved the world?
(Romans 16:21)
Introduction
Timothy was born to a poor family, but he moved the world. Lucius was a doctor, but in his elderly years, he received great answers. You know Jason very well, and Sosipater was a relative of Paul. What kind of person changes the world? Wherever you go, may you receive these blessings. If you want to devote yourself, you must realize the value that you possess. The moment you become a child of God, what kinds of things happen? You must realize this first. The moment you confess that you receive Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior and that you have become a child of God, what happens? The Holy Spirit whom you cannot see with your eyes indwells within you. This is the extent of your value. This is the value that you possess the moment you receive salvation. There is nothing left for you to worry about. If you just pray a little bit after being saved, the Holy Spirit will guide you. This is the blessing you have received. If we just set our time to pray, the Holy Spirit fills us. This is the blessing of the believer. If you possess these blessings, wherever you go, God will mobilize His angels and protect you. This is the blessing that you have come to receive. Then, you must be aware of it. The moment you receive salvation, the Holy Spirit indwells in you. If you pray just a little, the Holy Spirit will guide you and fill you and the power of God will be revealed upon you. Then, wherever you go, the forces of darkness will depart. This is the blessing you have received. How great is this blessing? If you possess these blessings, wherever you go, disciples will arise. Right now, you are living upon this earth, but you will not live forever; for this reason, the blessing of the throne of heaven has been promised to us. People who have not received salvation are unbelievers. These unbelievers are bound by their fate. However, you and I have been set free from fate. Because unbelievers are bound by their fate, they have no choice but to worship idols. John 8:44 says that unbelievers are bound by the devil; it expresses the devil as their father. When problems come, they have no choice but to turn to their father. This is also why they perform shamanistic rituals and worship idols (Exodus 20:3~5). In order to save people who are within this problem, God gave us the Gospel. The instant you become children of God, you can enjoy these blessings. Just as Matthew 11:28 says, problems continue to come to people?s thoughts and hearts. Acts 8:4~8 says that one day, diseases and physical problems will come. Luke 16:19~31 says that we are bound for hell. Matthew 27:25 states that the problem doesn?t just end; it is continued upon your children.
1. Many problems
Right now, you may have a lot of problems. When problems come, don?t look at the external things; look at the facts. Joseph was sent as a slave, and if he had seen it as a grave problem, it would mean that he was only conscious of the externalities. However, he discovered God?s plan for world evangelization from within that. We can discover a great door of evangelism in our problems. When this happens, we can receive strength through our problems.
2. Then, we must hold onto the core of the Word of God.
What is the central element, the core, of the Word of God? It is salvation for myself and for all people. When something happens, think to yourself, ?What does the Word of God say in this situation?? Even if you don?t know the Bible very well, you can get someone else to tell you what God?s Word says in that situation. When you do this, you will discover that there is great authority. You are children of God; you must now live with these blessings.
3. You must now receive the strength of prayer.
This is the way for you to receive blessings. When you get sick, ask God to discover His plan. When poverty comes your way, begin from the very bottom and work your way up. It?s all right even if you pray once during the best time for you- that?s scheduled prayer. Remnants, set your plan for the future, and pray with regard to that. Then, God will answer you easily. You can always pray quietly to yourself, unseen to others? eyes, even at school or work. This is what we call continuous prayer. This is the blessing that God has given to us. There may be times when you are faced with a great problem or hardship. At those times, God absolutely has a plan. Therefore, we must enter into deep prayer. With these blessings in hand, we must devote ourselves. All problems are connected with evangelism. The Word of God will be fulfilled and your prayers are answered. That is why it is not difficult in the least.
Conclusion
What is the greatest promise? It is the promise that God Himself will be with us?Immanuel. Many people lie to themselves and others, saying that things are so difficult. That is not the case. We are so pessimistic. Our God is a God of Immanuel. Starting now, you must prepare your vessel because you are people of blessings. You must prepare in three things. You must prepare the physical things. Appearance does matter, so take care of yourself and your body. You must also change your thinking. When you have time, read books. Read books that give you strength. In doing this, you must prepare your vessel. You must also make spiritual preparations. What is prayer, it is discovering the best thing that God has prepared for you today. You must be able to see the best blessing that God has prepared for you. Then, one day, you will stand as witnesses. You will be God?s witnesses to the ends of the earth. This is the blessing that you have received. This is true devotion. Then, why do we give layperson?s devotional worship? Because we cannot go to all the fields of the world, we give our small offering to support missions in those fields. We are supporting our missionaries in prayer as well. We can?t all go into the political field. When people in that field arise, we must pray for them. That is missions. I bless you in the name of Jesus that today, you may enjoy the blessing of Immanuel. You will receive God?s answers this week. May you find all of these blessings.
<>
God, we thank You. We thank You for calling us as your children, as lacking as we are. Thank You for revealing the power of God by which we can do all things. May this be the devotional worship service by which we can stand in the line of saving people. In Jesus Christ?s name we pray. Amen.
