What God Considers the Most Precious(1 Thessalonians 2:13~16)
And we also thank God continually because, when you received the word of God, which you heard from us, you accepted it not as the word of men, but as it actually is, the word of God, which is at work in you who believe(13).
Hymn #94 I'd Rather Have Jesus(Unified Hymn 102)
What does God value the most? It's when you're enjoying what He has given. The entire Bible is a promise that the Holy Trinity will be with you. God promised "The Throne's Blessing." Following this blessing, the past; present; and future will change. In addition, "The 5 Authorities," the power to overcome the one who holds the kingdom of the air, the C.V.D.I.P. which is seen in advance, and the three courtyards will appear. In doing so, the Holy Trinity will lead the way, and through "The 10 Mysteries" and "The 10 Foundations," "The 9 Streams" of the field will change. Once you have "The 5 Assurances," what you have to do for the rest of your life will emerge. Moreover, all life becomes a camp in which you can enjoy "The Throne's Power." From this point on, you'll be able to follow the important guideposts that are in the Bible. That's why you don't have to fear those who have the spirit of death. Powerful nations(Macedonia & Rome) that didn't understand the Gospel tried to kill people. Israel killed people and blocked the doors to evangelism and missions with its laws, systems, traditions, and piety. During the age of Europe, while Christianity was solely fighting over doctrine, Muslims took away all the good culture. That's why Jesus said to possess the assurance that God had no choice but to bless and enjoy it. What did He want you to enjoy?
1. Acts 17:1~9 Bartizan
Acts 17:1~9 is the beginning of the Church at Thessalonica and a bartizan.
2.1 Thessalonians 1:3 Journey
It's a journey of works "produced by faith, your labor prompted by love, and your endurance inspired by hope."
3.1 Thessalonians 1:5 Guidepost
Here is where God's power, the works of the Holy Spirit work, and your guidepost exist.
For those reasons, you have to discover the place where God has no choice but to bless. Furthermore, through prayer, you must raise "The 7 Bartizans, 7 Journeys, and 3 Guideposts" within yourself and build a church that has the three courtyards. It must be a church that helps multiethnic people enjoy comfort and realize the Gospel. It also has to be a church that creates bartizans, journeys, and guideposts. In addition, it must be a church which has rooms where all ministers; church officers; multiethnic people; and TCKs can actually pray; give devotion; and just have enjoyment. Ultimately, there must be a new beginning that really saves people.
[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, help me enjoy the things given by You. Through them, help me save others. May the church that you desire be raised. May the church where multiethnic people, Remnants, and people of prayer can gather be built. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen.
