If we do not know the fact that God is with us, we will have no choice but to wander and live three- faced lives. The majority of believers and church officers are experiencing difficulty living their walk of faith as a result of their incorrect nature, problems, and hardships. If we begin to realistically enjoy the mystery of Christ, we will be able to give the accurate answer to many people and our nature will also begin to change. If we lose hold of this, we will not be able to overcome our problems, hardship, and conflicts, and we will have no choice but to face difficulties. What is it that we must know?
1. True blessings
God knows that things are not working for a great majority of people. For this reason, He has prepared amazing blessings in order for us to overcome our three-faced lives, our problems, and our hardships. The moment we gain the answer of ‘only’ Christ, answers factually begin. At this time, the believers will experience the kingdom of God; they will confirm that God has prepared the amazing blessing of experiencing the answer of only the Holy Spirit. Discard all of your worries right now. We are the saved children of God. The day you discover the answer of only , darkness will crumble and all of your problems will begin to be solved.
2. Blessings of the field
God has prepared blessings in the field for the believer and church officers. The one who first opened the door of evangelism in Samaria and the door of missions in Ethiopia was the church officer Philip. The Antioch Church began through the death of the church officer Stephen, and when church officers gathered in prayer, the greatest answer was given.Acts 12:1~25 The individuals who opened the door of missions together with Paul were also church officers. Even today, God has prepared this answer.
3. Hidden blessings
God has prepared the hidden blessings of overcoming the age of disasters, restoring the church, and restoring the finances for evangelism and missions through the believers and church officers. Through the people who believe in this blessing, the non-self-sustaining churches will be revived and the age of evangelism and missions to block the age of darkness will begin. When we believe and rise to the challenge, we will come to experience the working of the Holy Spirit.
