?Offerings and offering?
(Exodus 35:20~29)
Introduction
▶God left the Israelites in the wilderness for 40 years. Why did God do this? We must find the answer to solve the hardships in the wilderness, as well as the answer (strength) to overcome. As you walk through the wilderness, you must be able to concentrate on three things. Being able to concentrate means to hold on to things correctly.
1. If we can focus on the blessings of the three feasts in prayer, we will be able to have success.
▶God completely freed the Israelites from curses through the Passover. As believers live their lives, the Holy Spirit is with them?this is the blessing of the Pentecost. Your background is heaven?this is the Ingathering. If this is the case, all we need to do is restore this blessing and enjoy it in prayer.
(1) Moses did 40-day fasting prayer twice.
▶The key is how realistically and scientifically you experience the power of God.
(2) We must discover the strength of praying concentrated prayer that is centered on the tabernacle.
(3) We must find our own method of praying scheduled prayer.
▶Is prayer truly taking place for me?
▶Surely prayer is a spiritual science, it is a fact, and it is the method by which the Holy Spirit works.
2. We must be able to pray concentrated prayer with regard to our specialty in order to succeed.
(1) The Israelites showed great specialty in building the tabernacle. This is the prayer that we need.
(2) Remnant ? Joseph went as a slave, and he lived the greatest life of a slave. This is specialty. Joseph worked so that God?s blessings could come upon the household, the field, and all the workplaces. This is specialty. When David was tending the flock, he didn?t even lose one lamb. That is specialty.
(3) People who had specialty in their work ? Wanamaker (a man who was working as a store clerk even became a government official), Sheaver (worked as a janitor but became the head of the world?s largest steel factory). This is what we call specialty.
▶We must have a sense of specialty in the work that we are entrusted with, enough so that God?s works may arise.
3. We must pray concentrated prayer regarding our finances.
▶God is holding on to our finances.
(1) Pray concentrated prayer regarding the 5 powers ? spiritual power, intellectual power, physical power, financial power, and manpower
(2) Pray concentrated prayer regarding offering ? the Scripture speaks about those who are willing 7 times.
(3) We must help our children receive the blessings of the 4 offerings ? tithe, RUTC, church (region), world missions.
Conclusion
▶The finances of the unbeliever and your finances are different.
You are the children of God, and you have the promise of world missions.
(1) The blessing of prayer taking place
(2) The blessing of specialty
(3) We must receive the blessing of being able to financially support in offering when the need calls for it.
▶Today, you must hold onto three covenants.
(1) You must discover the blessing of prayer of the Passover, Pentecost, and Ingathering.
(2) You must find God?s evidence from within the work that you are doing.
(3) Now, we must restore the blessing of finances. You must pray.
I bless you in the name of Jesus that this blessing may come upon you and your children.

?What does it mean to be a great help to the evangelist??
(Romans 16:1~2)
Introduction
▶What kind of devotion did the Romans 16 individuals give?
①They were witnesses because they had evidences.
②They were doing the camp. They also had the special nickname that God had given to them. ③They had the personal contract with God.
This is how we can organize Romans 16.
▶There is something that we must absolutely do prior to this.
(1) Prayer ? most Christians don?t have prayer taking place in their lives.
Acts 1:14, They devoted themselves to prayer. If this takes place, Philippians 4:7 will follow. Then, when this happens, we will be able to see God?s plan (Acts 19:21). The fact that prayer is not taking place means that our spiritual state is desolate and we do not have concentration.
▶The method by which we can heal our inability to pray is meditation (Psalm 19:14, Psalm 104:34, Genesis 24:63, Joshua 1:8, Psalm 1:2, Psalm 49:3, Psalm 119:23, 97, 99).
(2) Evangelism ? in order to stand as a witness, we must correctly know what evangelism is.
▶Many problems and answers come to us. When these things come to us, we must be able to see the facts. At that time, our spiritual eyes will open. Then, important answers will come. This is what we call evangelism.
(3) Word ? We have nothing to do with evangelism. If we can find this, the Word of God will be accurately fulfilled. When we discover this, 100 years of answers will begin.
▶From this moment on, the evidences will come and we will stand as a witness.
1. Witness (evidence)
▶When we live our walk of faith correctly, evidences will come.
(1) A witness is someone who knows.
(2) A witness is someone who has seen.
(3) A witness is someone who possesses.
2. Camp (light)
▶When those who have this evidence move,
(1) Genesis 1:3, the light will begin to shine.
(2) Isaiah 60:1~2, we must arise and shine the light.
(3) 1 Peter 2:9, we have been called to testify of this light. This light is Jesus Christ (John 1:9).
3. Personal contract (nickname)
(1) The answers of uniqueness will come.
(2) God?s special plan will be revealed.
(3) You will be able to see the time schedule (Romans 16:25~27).
▶Paul was persecuted by the church, the law, murderous groups, religious leaders, merchants, and politicians. He was hard pressed on all sides. Even still, no one could block him (1 Corinthians 1:18, the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved, it is the power of God).
Conclusion
(1) We must first receive healing of our hearts. The way to receive that healing is the first three things that we spoke about in the introduction.
(2) Healing of our thoughts ? we must continue to see and hear good things.
(3) Spiritual healing ? if we continue to do the three things in the introduction, spiritual healing will arise.
▶Starting today, we must begin. This is the devotion of all devotions.
There is no need to worry. The time schedule for answers will absolutely come.
No matter where the Remnants may be situated, they can do all things. There is nothing impossible in Christ. Just hold on to the Word, prayer, and evangelism and begin correctly. You are the Remnants to save the age! You are the ones who will raise the Remnants!
