The children and posterity who have the Gospel

God protects and has His attention upon the children and posterity who have the covenant. God has an important plan for the children and future generations who possess the covenant. God raises, protects and guides the families and parents who have the covenant for the sake of the children and future generations. What is God’s plan for the children and posterity, and how should you enjoy this blessing?
1. The great gift God gives
What is the greatest gift God gives? It is precisely ‘my Gospel.’ The fact that Jesus is the Christ must become my own, I must enjoy this Word through prayer, and I must hold onto the evidence in my life. The commission of the one who possesses the Gospel is to relay this mystery and blessing that we are enjoying to our children and posterity. When I hold onto ‘my Gospel,’ enjoy blessings through prayer, and experience evangelism in my life, the Gospel will be transmitted to the future generations and I will enjoy the blessing of the world being evangelized.
2. Mission Home ̊
The Mission Home is the home that has the Gospel, the home in which the evangelism
movement arises, and the home the Lord protects. The place the Remnant ̊ is at is
precisely this Mission Home. In order to enjoy the blessing of the Mission Home, I must
find my Gospel, my prayer and my lifestyle. Samuel, the Nazirite, was born through
Hannah’s prayer, King David was raised through Jesse’s prayers, and when I restore my
lifestyle through my Gospel and my prayer, I will meet the future generations who will
save the age.
3. The house that enjoys the covenant
Moses who led the works of the exodus came from a Levite man who met a Levite woman. Through one person, Moses who knew the covenant, the history of Israel changed and the dark culture of Egypt completely came to an end. Through the family that enjoys the covenant, the answers that changed the age were fulfilled. In this way, the family, region, nation and world received blessings through the children and future generations who knew the Bible from a young age and whose spirits were raised through the Word of God.
