When trying to receive answers in the age of Friday; Saturday; and Sunday, the most important aspect is changing your thoughts. Everything that Jesus explained during His public ministry was about changing one's thoughts. (Matthew 5, 6, 7, 10, & 13) You must change your motives to God's motives and carry out the three courtyards in earnest. In His last pulpit message, Jesus explained 15 points that could change the world; (3·9·3) "the 7 Missions and 7 Journeys"; and promised that, through "only," they would be witnesses to the ends of the earth. That was the "237, Healing, and Summit." For every individual, the "237; Healing; and Summit” must become “24, 25, and Eternity." This system is the "ends of the world." On Saturdays, children and all church officers should have the time of deep concentration that Jesus spoke of. This will be the time to change the world.

1. Thanksgiving and Praise
Through faith, when you receive the Word of God and correctly understand it, thanksgiving will emerge. You'll become thankful for being saved and for everything else as well. You must even be thankful when you suffer. Ultimately, praise is truly giving thanksgiving to God. Praise refers to your spiritual condition, (Psalm 22:3, 50:23, & 100:4)

2. Prayer, Supplication, and Intercession (Intercessory Prayer)
Praying and petitioning means that you're already in a state of assurance. Jesus said, “Ask in my name. (John 16:24) I will give you the Holy Spirit." (Luke 12:23) By doing so, darkness will be bound and God's Kingdom will come. (Matthew 12:28) He promised, "I will send the heavenly army to fulfill God's works." (Hebrews 1:14) When you're assured of this, intercessory prayer emerges. Prayer transcends time and space. For those who know this, they pray.

3. Forgiveness of Sins (Psalm 66:18-19) and Gospel Evidences - The Future
When you ask for forgiveness, God hears your prayers. The greatest power of God that comes upon you is receiving forgiveness and the power to forgive. If you testify the Gospel, works will surely occur in the future. The name of Jesus is the key that opens "The Throne's Door" and destroys all darkness. (Philippians 3:21)

Everything that you have must be inside of prayer and breathing. When messengers prepare or proclaim messages, those who listen to the messages must be in prayer. In doing so, answers will arise during the following six days.

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, thank you for giving me the grace to save the age. By opening the age of Friday; Saturday; and Sunday, may it become the start of changing the future. Please help the posterity survive and may the works of saving the church take place. Please raise me as a witness who establishes the true Gospel and true church. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen.
