For God’s children, the time schedule prepared by God remains. It’s a time schedule that saves individuals and the posterity. When Elijah who exhibited great power was unable to realize this time schedule, he became discouraged, lost his strength, and prayed for death.1 Kings 19:4 Then, what has God prepared for you?

1. God Wants You to Be Saved
As you live in this world, you’ll encounter all kinds of works and problems. Although it’s necessary to have both resilience and diligence, you must accurately listen to God's voice. More than anyone else, God wants to save you. Separated from God without any hope or answers, He sent Jesus Christ to save you so that you could hear the Gospel and live as His child. God who saved you will also save your family, family fine, and the posterity. This is God's wish and the time schedule for you.

2. The Timetable to Save the Future Remains
God starts in situations where nobody can help and where absolutely nothing exists. However, in slavery; captivity; and colonization, God works. You may have thought that severe persecution and tribulation would come and cause failure and end; however, God opens doors to missions and raises disciples through those events. Even now, God sends His angels; gives strength to His children; and helps them to hear His voice. Through the power of the throne of His Kingdom, God is with you under the authority of the throne of His Kingdom, transcends time and space to work, sends angels, and works through them to fulfill His will.

Even now, God has prepared the 7,000 disciples promised to Elijah and the Mizpah movement. That’s why you must find hidden disciples and together, utilize the Gospel to change the age.

Dear God, through the Gospel, thank you for saving me from spiritual death. Starting now, help me to see Your time schedule to save the age. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

* Do You Always Feel Inadequate?

Have you ever thought about how long the rest of your life will be? In actuality, nobody knows. Despite enjoying the following daily, it’ll still be insufficient, but what are the length, width, height, and depth of Jesus Christ?

God's power that has called a weak and insignificant person like you to become His precious child extends far beyond your imagination. Furthermore, God even knows your incompetence and your instinctive self-centered thoughts. God who saved you can change children, husbands, wives, and parents. The way out of the terrible fateful background of your family and family line and the unbelief of self- centeredness has already come inside of you.

Even if you have many nice possessions, receive a lot from others, or have reached your goals, the reason why you always feel insufficient may stem from not being able to see what's inside you and constantly chasing what’s incorrect.
