The strength to change the field
Genesis 39:1~6 From the time he put him in charge of his household and of all that he owned, the Lord blessed the household of the Egyptian because of Joseph. The blessing of the Lord was on everything Potiphar had, both in the house and in the field. (5)

God sent Jesus Christ to save us from the authority of Satan, sin, curses, and hell. This is the Gospel of grace. Every time the Gospel weakened and disappeared, God raised up a person with the Gospel and restored it. God called us as the main figures of Gospel restoration. In the Gospel lies the strength to easily change the field. How can we gain this strength and save the field?
1. The start of great answers
The great answers to save the field are before us. However, most people fall into the misconception that, ‘It won’t work out for me. Look at me now.’ And they become discouraged by their situations and circumstances. God first called Joseph not as a governor, but as a slave, and David not as a king, but as a shepherd. However, the times in which they were a slave and a shepherd were the start of the greatest answers. We must not be deceived. The answers regarding our past, present and future are all in the Gospel. Therefore, uncovering the answers at your present state in the Gospel is crucial. You must stand as a person who gives the answer, with the status of a child of God, to others who are struggling with problems.
2. Background of great answers
You must pray knowing the spiritual background of a child of God. When the Holy Spirit works at this time, He will mobilize the heavenly forces wherever we go, destroy the forces of darkness, and establish God’s kingdom. When you know this spiritual background, you will be able to see and change the field. From here comes the answer of world evangelization. If you wait with the promise of world evangelization, God will show you the best time schedule.
3. Fulfillment of great answers
Great answers are fulfilled first through the people around me. Accordingly, saving all those around me is God’s plan and the start of answers. If you know the truth, there are no enemies or foes in fulfilling God’s plan. You must uncover the plan of God in trivial meetings, as well. This is the start of great answers.
- The start of answers is today in the field that I am currently in. Challenge yourself to live the life of an evangelist who enjoys true happiness in today’s evangelism, Word and prayer, and gives the answer to others, too.
