The Mizpah Movement that Revealed the Cause of the Problem(1 Samuel 7:1~14)
And Samuel said to the whole house of Israel, “If you are returning to the LORD with all your hearts. then rid yourselves of the foreign gods and the Ashtoreths and commit yourselves to the LORD and serve him only. and he will deliver you out of the hand of the Philistines.”(3)
Hymn #499 Far, Far Away in Heathen Darkness Dwelling(Unified Hymn 277)
When the disciples met a man born blind, they asked whose sin caused it. Jesus said it was to reveal the work of God. Because you’re bound by fate and can’t escape problems, John 9:3 you must find accurate answers through the Mizpah movement. When problems come, you get discouraged and deceived, and you collapse from the start, so you miss the answer. The Philistines weren’t the real problem. They sought idols because they didn’t know the cause of suffering. Satan has built *16 bartizans to quietly destroy people. Thus, you must establish the Lord’s Bartizan. When Samuel offered the lamb, darkness collapsed(Replacing the bartizan - New creation), and your destiny, identity, and authority changed. This is the answer of Ebenezer. Then what’s the path of Ebenezer?
1. Restore the Fundamental Covenant
It’s resolving the fundamental problem(Genesis 3:15), entering the ark(Genesis 6:14), and offering the blood sacrifice(Exodus 3:18). It’s restoring the Three Feasts in the wilderness, the covenant inside the ark of the covenant, and what was inside the tabernacle. It’s the burnt offering that ended the suffering of the age of 14 judges. As a result, there was no war as long as Samuel lived.
2. Equip Yourself with Realistic Strength to Save
You must gain the power that changes the fate of Egypt, Philistia, and Israel. At the moment of the blood sacrifice, all forces of darkness knelt. When the Philistines heard Israel had gathered at Mizpah and attacked, God stopped them with thunder. Verses 10, 14 So you only need to hold onto the covenant.
3. Great Works That’s Left Behind- Future David
Samuel went to David, gave him the covenant of the ark of the covenant and the covenant of the temple that’d house the ark of the covenant. Samuel then anointed David. From that day on, David, greatly moved by the Spirit of the Lord, prepared 1,000 bartizans and the temple.
You must also receive this answer. You must change yourself through the Lord’s Bartizan, walk the Journey of Ebenezer that saves the world, and establish Guideposts through the Lord ’sark of the covenant to save the entire world.

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, I thank You for working upon me through the covenant. I thank You for allowing me to know the original cause. Please allow the Mizpah movement that changes today’s Bartizan to arise and help me see the true answer of discovering Ebenezer. In Jesus Christ’s name, I pray. Amen.
