The Field
2 Kings 6:8~23 He said, “Do not be afraid, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.” 17 Then Elisha prayed and said, “O Lord, please open his eyes that he may see.” So the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw, and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha. (16~17)

You have no need to deny the reality that you see, or lament and grumble in front of that wall or obstacle. Instead, you just need to accurately look at the facts, truths, and the spiritual evidences. During King Ahab’s reign, which was afflicted with serious spiritual problems, God prepared Elisha. A message to change the stream of the age was proclaimed on Mt. Horeb and a turning point of an entire age centered on Dothan was being created. Even today, God is still preparing an absolute answer.
1. Absolute Sovereignty and Absolute Plan
Because of God’s absolute sovereignty, you’ve been saved and are inside the stream of the absolute covenant that will save the age. In a reality that seems to be an age of absolute impossibility, God has prepared an absolute plan. So no matter what the case may be, you have no reason to despair. In other words, your despair isn’t God’s despair and what seems absolutely impossible for you is absolutely possible for God. Even in the midst of absolute despair with no choice but death, the Dothan movement is being prepared.
2. The Absolute Covenant and the Goal of the Journey
When God looks at you, will He see a person who becomes elated or discouraged over unimportant answers? Those who possess the absolute covenant do not tremble in the face of small or big answers and reality. Rather, in midst of absolute despair, they’ll discover important reasons. Those were the reasons why idolatrous nations changed, why the events took place on Mt. Carmel and Mt. Horeb, why Elisha asked for a double portion of spirit after he and Elijah crossed the Jordan River, and why the Dothan movement had to be carried out. God has prepared an eternal goal of victory that’ll arise without fighting and the authority to run errands for world evangelization.
Today, if you can connect the answer of the throne to your work and life, you can become the Summit who has discovered “only.” By holding onto the covenant, you can wait for the answer of “uniqueness” and with that power, challenge toward “re-creation”.
[Covenantal Prayer]
Dear God, knowing that my life is inside of the blessing of Immanuel, grant me the grace to receive and relay, not just small or big answers, but the absolute answer. I pray in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
* Do You Possess the Eyes to See the Other Side?
In the midst of disasters, do you possess the eyes of the covenant to see in advance? In the midst of chaos, do you have the grace of possessing your vision in advance? In the midst of hopelessness, are you a person who dreams and enjoys in advance?
In the midst of diseases and suffering, do you possess an image to conquer in advance? In the midst of conflicts, can you actualize and relay fulfillments in advance?
This is God's dream of your true form and the answers that your life contains right now.
