In this present reality, you’ll face difficulties time and time again. However, even if you can’t do anything or nothing seems to be taking place(Nobody), God has His absolute answers prepared for you. If you can see this work and devote yourself, you’ll be able to save all people(Everybody). In order to enjoy these blessings, what must you do?
1. The Start and Process
You must follow the works that emerge from God’s Word. God’s promise to Abraham was passed down to Joseph. From there, Joseph had a dream(Genesis 37:1~11). However, he soon faced great hardships(his mother’s death, slavery, and imprisonment). Despite his circumstances, Joseph saw God's absolute answers. In time, Pharaoh appointed Joseph as the governor of Egypt. Joseph wasn’t deceived because he knew that the process was a blessing.
2. Fulfillment
Through Joseph, every soldier stationed in the field of slavery, every guard and prisoner in the field of prison, and every official in the field of the palace heard the mysteries of God. Finally, through Joseph’s position as the governor, every nation witnessed God’s covenant. The Word was fulfilled to save everyone.
Even if your start is “Nobody,” your answer will be “Everybody.” Because you know this mystery, you can give thanksgiving no matter what the reality may be.
[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, help me to see Your absolute answer in “Nobody” and enjoy the blessing of “Everybody.” I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.

[Deep Questions]
Q. What Is the Missions’ Strategy of “Nobody?”
Seoul National University Rainwater Research Center
(Director, Prof. Han Moo-young)
Prof. Han Moo-young of Seoul National University who has the potential to do future missions work with our organization is changing rainwater into clean drinking water.
His project has tremendous bearing with world missions. I asked him, “Professor, how did you start this work?” He gave an honest answer that was very much like him.
“Projects like constructing dams make money; however, this type of project doesn’t. Regardless, this work will become more important than material wealth.”
It may appear like nobody can do it; nobody can enter; and nobody can accomplish it. However, those are the answers of “Nobody” to save everybody.
