Will by No Means Lose His Reward
Matthew 10:40~42 “Whoever receives you receives me, and whoever receives me receives him who sent me. The one who receives a prophet because he is a prophet will receive a prophet's reward, and the one who receives a righteous person because he is a righteous person will receive a righteous person's reward. And whoever gives one of these little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward.”

The world is in the midst of mental illnesses and spiritual disasters that began from poverty, diseases, and superstitions. At this time, God has called you and your church for the work of relaying the Gospel. What is the covenant that you must hold onto today?
1. Israel’s Greatest Crisis
The Israelites who had the Gospel faced their greatest crisis. They became colonized and the Jerusalem temple was completely destroyed. Moreover, the Israelites faced a crisis of being scattered across the entire world. However, God had already prepared a small number of disciples from the Early Church who possessed the accurate Gospel. Even within disasters, God carried out world evangelization through those individuals. You, too, who possess this accurate Gospel must enter within God’s covenant for the sake of world evangelization.
2. The Restoration of What Is Most Necessary
God desires for you to restore the answer of healing that casts out demons and healing those who are physically diseased. Thus the Gospel that God has given to you who have been chosen by Him is sufficient. You just need to relay God’s Kingdom being established in the field. Persecution can come your way. However, there is no reason to fear since God is with you.
3. The Promised Blessing
For the work of relaying the Gospel, God promised that you would not lose your reward if you helped evangelists. God promised that you would receive a righteous person’s reward if you receive a righteous person, and you would receive a disciple’s reward if you help a disciple. God desires that the Gospel, evangelism, and missions be restored. Churches that God looks for and uses are the ones that Satan fears. Churches where forces of darkness automatically flee and churches that shine the light in all places are the image and answer of a true church that your church will surely receive.
[Prayer of the Evangelist] Dear God, for the work of restoring the Gospel which is Your greatest desire, may I remain in the blessing of holding onto the covenant and restoring the church.

[Gospel Memory Verse] Mark 3:13~15
And he went up on the mountain and called to him those whom he desired, and they came to him. And he appointed twelve (whom he also named apostles) so that they might be with him and he might send them out to preach and have authority to cast out demons.
