The evangelism movement through the field
1 Corinthians 3:16 Don''t you know that you yourselves are God''s temple and that God''s Spirit lives in you?
♬Hymn for scheduled worship: Korean/English Hymnal #438 Since Christ My Soul from Sin Set Free (#495 in previous version)
God teaches those who have received salvation, and tells them they are the temple of God. In addition, God is pleased with worship. He desires for you to help people facing hardships in the field, and for you to share the Word with them. If worship begins in the place you are at, that field becomes the regional church. The evangelism movement through the field is enabling the many people facing hardships to gain help through the regional church. How will you enjoy this blessing today?
1. You must grab hold of the 10 platforms of faith.
The platforms of faith are the answers you must grab on to for the sake of the evangelism movement in the field. The platforms you stand upon must be sturdy so you do not shake. First, you must remember God the Father, God the Son Jesus, and God the Holy Spirit. The Triune God works through the Word and He saved me. Those who have been saved have become the temple of God and the Holy Spirit dwells inside those who are saved. All the fields where children of God are present are missions fields. God knows your sitting and your standing, and your everything, and you are living a momentary life here on earth. Upon your death, there is surely a heaven or hell. God absolutely remembers the reward of the evangelist. Through this platform, you must save yourself and the field.
2. The field I am at is my missions field.
Change arose in each of the fields the 7 representative Remnants* from the Bible were in, and the answers of people coming to life arose. Jesus said, ‘For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them.’ 1 Corinthians 3:16 is the Word God gave Paul. It is not that God dwells in an immense temple building, but God says He dwells in us who are saved, we who are the temple of God. If we grab hold of this Word in every field we go to, the works of the field at that very place coming to life arises. The field we are at right now is the missions fields we must save with the Gospel.
3. The most important blessing is finding the isolated areas.
If you go to the field, you will realize that there is a distance, a gap, between the field and yourself. Discovering this is God’s plan. If you go to the field, there can be problems. Finding the answer regarding this is the work we must do. Although Joseph had the great dream God had given him, he was treated badly by his brothers in his family, and ultimately, was sold as a slave in Egypt. Although the fields of himself and slavery were a great distance apart, he discovered the plan of God there. This is the most important blessing. Ultimately, he became the governor, solved the problems in Egypt, and solved the problems of the world there.
- What is God’s plan for me in the place I am at? God’s desire is for the regional churches of the field to be established in the places I am at through worship and for me to do the evangelism movement. Try praying that the doors of evangelism would open in the field you are at.
