말씀 녹취록

For we have received the Spirit from God.

1 Corinthians 2:10-16

Please make a true confession of faith, not a formal one.

You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.

Last Friday, my wife told me off. She told me I wasn't smiling enough.

It was amazing to see the congregation listening to the sermon with this face that had hardened for 30 to 40 years.

I'm sorry to show you this face.

Our teams went to the mission field in Bulgaria.

Chan-woong said it would be good for our grandmother.

I said I would be happy if I didn't have to study.

Chan-woong said that he was very jealous of his grandmother because she didn't study.

The road Chan-woong has to take is so long. He will have to study for almost his entire life.

Students, isn't studying hard? When you take a test in middle school, you want to prepare for it and get a good score, but most of the time, that's not the case.

Life isn't easy.

I sometimes think about my parents in the past.

When I think about my parents' life journey, I always see my mother worrying about her seven children.

Also, how poor is life in rural areas?

My father worked as a farmer in the countryside, and I always heard him say that it was hard because he was too tired and that he thought he would die.

After I finished my military service, I had the opportunity to return to school and plant rice seedlings for 20 days.

At that time, I planted seedlings to receive the money and buy a desk.

I had never planted anything before. I had to plant seedlings next to great professionals. But when I planted seedlings, my back hurt so much.

As it turned out, other people had been drinking makgeolli and planting seedlings with the power of makgeolli.

People in the world live by alcohol.

Jesus also told us and his disciples that we will face tribulation, but take heart, for I have overcome the world.

Jesus is the one who has overcome the world, but we cannot overcome the world.

The world refers to Satan, the ruler of the world.

In this world we live in, there are tribulations, trials and conflicts that constantly come our way, and there are so many things to worry about.

I wish there were no problems, but there are just too many.

Even though we believe in Jesus, we still face financial difficulties and conflicts in our relationships. Some people have conflicts at home, at work, and some have conflicts with their wives or husbands.

Also, whether you are running a business or a trade, you have to leave something behind, and the stress of not having that is indescribable.

Then, it would be nice if everything went as I wanted, my children studied well, got a good job, met a good person and got married, and lived a comfortable and prosperous life, but unexpected problems inevitably arise.

Unexpected problems are bound to arise.

Mental problems can come, problems can come through your children, it's definitely a disaster.

As this world develops and life becomes more prosperous, problems come from other places.

In the past, we lived in poverty. If you mention how difficult it was in the past, people today can't even imagine it.

But these days, it's hard to clean, so we buy vacuum cleaners, and it's hard to do laundry, so we leave it to the washing machine.

Is cooking rice hard work? How hard was it in the old days?

People who lived in the old days, in the winter, the inside of the thatched-roof house would freeze over, so they would break the ice in the stream to do laundry, and they couldn't even take a bath in the winter.

In the old days, people had a lot of boils because they couldn't bathe.

When the back of my hand got dirty, I went to the stream in the spring to get rid of it.

Although they lived such difficult lives, they helped others, no one committed suicide, and no one had major conflicts.

But now, people don't even know their next door neighbors, suicide rates are rising, and families are breaking up at a faster rate.

This problem is so serious.

Depression and conflict have become so severe.

I couldn't stand it anymore.

This caused unimaginable mental distress.

She lived in an incredibly nice house, did the washing and vacuuming, and did everything for her children, making sure they had everything they needed.

One day in our lives, these problems will come to us.

Spiritual problems, mental problems, physical problems, and even physical illnesses can come to the body.

Everyone has these problems.

When problems like this arise for non-believers, they struggle using all means and methods.

People with money try to solve problems with money, but it doesn't work.

What is a spiritual problem? The problem that comes from evil spirits and Satan is something that cannot be solved by anything.

Some people worship idols and seek out shamans.

They spend tens of millions of won to hold rituals and ceremonies.

These are not simple issues.

If you live like this and suddenly die, you will have no choice but to go to hell, and this legacy will be passed on to your children, who will live the same life their parents lived.

We are born on this earth, suffer spiritually, mentally, and physically, and then die.

Are we born on this earth to live like this?

There are even philosophers who say that it would be better for humans not to have been born.

Is this life?

Did God create humans to live like this? No.

Humans were not created to suffer and go to hell.

We are blessed beings created in the image of God.

He created humans to rule over all things and to subdue them.

Are you happy that you became president? Does achieving the goal that I set out to achieve bring us happiness or eternal life?

Will it prevent disaster?

Shouldn't successful people and conglomerates be happy?

However, such tycoons and successful people actually have serious spiritual problems.

Even if we look at our own families, this problem is serious.

Is your home peaceful? Are your children okay?

Are you just going to live your life pretending like no one knows?

Why do you think God has called you?

Is God dead? If there is no God, if the Bible is a fraud, if Jesus died, then you can just live however you want.

But God is alive, and He is still alive, working out His perfect plan centered on Jesus Christ.

He is the One who will surely fulfill what He tells us.

God is alive, Jesus is Christ, and He is carrying out world evangelization through Jesus Christ. This is God's absolute plan. This will never change.

But no matter how much I think about it, there are times when I think I can't do it.

You and I hear talk of 237 countries and 5,000 races.

"Our church will never do it. We have nothing and our size is small. I can barely make a living, so what kind of missionary work can we do?" If we say this, we will have nothing to do with God.

World evangelization is not something I do.

World evangelization is not something that the Korean church does.

World evangelization is God's work.

That is why our power is not needed. God has never told us to raise money to evangelize the world.

We need to clear up our misunderstandings. I need to put my thoughts down quickly.

We are not doing world evangelization.

It's not about the money I have or the ideas I have for world evangelization.

Then what do we do?

God creates something out of nothing.

God has entrusted us with everything He created.

However, humans ate the fruit of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil that God had forbidden, and were captured by Satan.

We must live by worshipping God, receiving the blessings of the throne given by God, and conquering the world.

However, humans are captured by Satan and the devil and end up living self-centered lives.

Don't I have all my thoughts and opinions?

Everyone's concern is food, clothing, and shelter.

You should ask yourself what you need to eat well and live well, and how you can drive a nice car, make money, and be successful.

Is the reason you live for food, clothing and shelter?

If the purpose of human life is to eat and drink, then we are no different from pigs.

What will you do if you become president? What will you do if you become a minister? That is not the purpose.

There is a reason why David became king.

David never lived with the purpose of becoming king.

We are not unbelievers.

We are children of God.

We are those who have received the spirit of adoption, not the spirit of the world.

How did you come to know that Jesus is Christ and how did you come to sit here?

It's not by chance that you are sitting here.

I have been saved and have become a child of God, so why does world evangelization have nothing to do with me?

What does Acts 1:8 mean?

When you receive power, that is, the ability given by God, you can overcome trials. You can also overcome tribulations and illnesses.

There was an elder who had been training for 30 years and could jump around 50 attics.

But then suddenly the man got cancer.

This elder really made a covenant and focused.

Then, with the power of the Holy Spirit, they began to say that they were Christ only with their mouths.

But from this moment on, the elder stopped confessing only with his mouth.

There are some pastors. They are world-famous pastors.

One day, the church was completely taken over.

When you truly hold the covenant and enjoy the power of the throne, you will realize the secret of prayer.

He said that from then on, he just kept praying.

We can gain strength through assistance.

God said that his grace was sufficient for Paul.

When you realize the secret of the Only and the secret of the Throne, this becomes a blessing.

Are you having problems? Are you having financial problems, problems with your children?

The bigger the problem, the greater the blessing and power of the assistant.

Become a witness with this power

Then God will take responsibility for everything.

So we are not people who have received the spirit of the world, but people who have received the spirit of adoption.

"I am one who has received the spirit from God."

A person who has received the spirit of both.

In this world there is darkness and light, death and life, Satan and the Holy Spirit.

They coexist with each other.

There are both believers and non-believers in this world.

Can darkness overcome light? No.

When you shine a light in the darkness, the darkness retreats.

The light of Christ has come upon you.

Then can darkness reign in you? It is impossible.

But why do you stay in the dark? Because of hurt or the thought that you are not good enough.

Let's get rid of the idea that we can't do it.

The darkness has gone.

Light and darkness, these two cannot coexist.

What is the secret to winning without actually fighting? Military power.

The US has a strong military, but can it break through the civilian army?

When God's work is done, Satan goes wild.

When we go all-in on the Kingdom of God, the filling of the Holy Spirit, and world evangelization, Satan will go crazy.

Darkness has never overcome light.

It must not be shaken.

If you preach the gospel, will everyone accept Jesus?

You heard me.

That's why you're here.

We must continue to focus on the Word and let go of our plans.

I love worldly things. I cannot shake off the foolishness of the world.

He said to love the things in the world.

Do you love the world with all your heart?

You must not love money.

You shouldn't love your children.

You must not love anything more than God.

People who have received the spirit of the world are deceived by the teachings and words of men.

There, those who are deceived and belong to the flesh, those who have received the spirit of the world, have not received the light of the Holy Spirit of God.

It may seem foolish to pray to Jesus. Is this a joke? No.

So, if we look at Romans 8, we see that we received the spirit of slavery and were always afraid.

Always fear, anxiety and worry, which can lead to depression and mental problems.

I hope that today, at this moment, all the fears within you will go away.

You who are saved are children of God and are in the temple of God.

We who are saved are entitled to God's guidance.

We are qualified to be empowered.

We just need to be given the ability.

I say it again. Please let go of your thoughts quickly. Please do not have any wounds.

You shouldn't have any preconceptions.

When you pray in the name of Jesus, asking for the Holy Spirit, guidance, and history, the demons will leave.

This is a secret.

He said that it is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit of God.

So the things that God gives by grace are revealed.

Anyway, you must come to church, realize this spiritual secret, and gain strength for a week.

May you be empowered by the Holy Spirit.

I hope all your wounds will be healed.

You have to win on the field.

You must continue to pray.

We must realize the secret of prayer.

The Holy Spirit already lives in you.

You are people who have received the spirit of adoption.

By receiving the Spirit of adoption, we can call God Abba, Father.

How blessed are you?

Your earthly father cannot do everything for you.

But God the Father is our eternal Father.

Congratulations to all of you who can call God your Father.

Today, all day long, I hope you will hold on to these words that have been given to you, enjoy the blessings of Immanuel, overcome the world, overcome illness, and be filled with the Holy Spirit.

If you have no problems, if you are not sick, you do not need a doctor.

Your problem is not the problem.

This is an opportunity to experience that Jesus is Christ.

If you make a covenant and pray, everything will work together.

Thank you, God.

The word given today is that we are those who have not received the spirit of the world, but the spirit of adoption.

Please let me be a witness.

Please let the pain of all the saints go away, and let all the demons go away.

In the name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen.
