A person who is inside prayer
Philemon 1:1~6 I always thank my God as I remember you in my prayers, because I hear about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all the saints. (4~5) ♬ HHymn for scheduled worship: Korean/English Hymnal #412 Far Away in the Depths of my Spirit (#469 in previous version) If you know what the world needs now, you will know what God desires. If you know whether the New Age movement or Freemasonry that have conquered the world are works of the Holy Spirit or works of the devil, you will also see what it is that we must save. What kind of people must children of God who have received God’s blessings become for the dying world?
1. A person who helps the evangelist
Philemon was a man who had financial power and was influential in society. Such a person heard the Gospel and became a supporter of the evangelist Paul. He held the desire to help evangelists and to pray for them as his lifelong covenant. This is because he knew that there is no greater blessing than helping evangelists through prayer and supporting them through finances. In order to become a person who helps evangelists, you must begin correct prayer with the evangelists and the evangelism field in your heart.
2. A person who saves an entire region Colosse was an important region of Rome. Philemon held an important position in this city, and he became a supporter of the evangelist Paul. Because of Philemon who had the correct Gospel, one region was saved. Philemon knew what pleases God and prayed for it. We must get rid of our fear and begin the prayer to save the region.
3. A person who saves those who are neglected in the world
Philemon had a slave named Onesimus, and this slave went to prison because he was caught while running away after stealing a master’s belonging. Onesimus met the evangelist Paul in prison and heard the Gospel, and Paul sent letters to Philemon and shared the Gospel sincerely. After Paul made Onesimus his disciple, he received the blessing of going to the church of Colosse as the overseer even though he was a slave. Even the neglected in the world or those who mock God can change when they receive God’s blessings.
Forum Topic We must ask for the filling of the Holy Spirit so that we may find talented individuals whom we cannot see with our eyes, raise them inside the Gospel, and help them to enjoy the blessing of evangelism. Begin praying so that your life may be blessed like that of the evangelist Paul and Philemon.
