Many people have difficulty maintaining their lives because of poverty and face hardships in their businesses. However, if children of God enjoy their greatest status from the lowest point, the authority to save others will emerge. Even though the members of the Early Church began from a place where nobody could go and didn’t have any background(No Where), they saved every place they visited(Everywhere). How can you receive these answers?

1. The People Whom God Sees
The people of the world and superpower nations may seem like they’ve succeeded, but in fact, they are being completely deceived by Satan. Pharisees who were spiritually enslaved thought that they had achieved success, but in reality they were deluded. On the other hand, the members of the Early Church didn’t have any power or position, but they possessed the Gospel. Eventually, they gained success.

2. The Place Where God Sends His Disciples - Nowhere
God sent the disciples of the Early Church who possessed the Gospel to places where there was nothing(Nowhere). Later, God called them to the field of the resurrection and told them to go to all people(Matthew 28:16~20 and Mark 16:15~20). At Calvary, Jesus showed the evidences of Christ; explained the Kingdom of God and its works; and promised to give the Holy Spirit(Acts 1:1~8). The disciples were sent to Mark’s upper room where nobody went(Acts 2:1~47).


A group of priests repented(Acts 6:1~7). Through the persecution that arose because of Stephen, the Antioch Church that would do world missions arose(Acts 11:19) and the first missionary was commissioned(Acts 13:1~4). God’s goal is to save all fields and people(Everywhere). The path for you to live and break down darkness is by making the smallest into the greatest; the easiest and what you can do into your masterpiece; and healing those you meet.

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, from the place where nothing exists, help me to leave behind masterpieces that save all places through “only Gospel.”

[Deep Questions]
Q. What Is World Evangelization That Takes Place from the Lowest, the Smallest, the Easiest, and Most Achievable?

I pioneered a church at Yeongdo-gu, the poorest district among the thirteen districts in Busan.
I didn’t go there because I’d wanted to, I just happened to go there. There was literally nothing I could do. There was no church building, no house where my family and I could live in, or even a lot of congregation members. The conditions were quite bleak.

That was when I held onto the covenant.
“I’ll do everything according to the Bible.”

I didn’t use any other method. However, there were those who used other means which led to temporary success. That was possible for them because they were capable. But in my case, it wasn’t possible at all.
It wasn’t about leading a lot of Bible studies. I needed “only Gospel.” As a result, I did “only evangelism” that began from the lowest place. There weren’t many church members, and they didn’t have any power. We purchased a used van and began early morning prayer service. Soon, early morning prayer began to spread like fire. When persecution arose, disciples gathered so I did the disciple movement. When I received answers, I looked ahead into the world and did world evangelization.
Don’t try to do something special, but go to the lowest place. From there, you can learn the most.
