The Path of Those Who Remained

Luke 10:1-20 / The seventy-two returned with joy and said, "Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name." (17)

Hymn #384 All the Way My Savior Leads Me (Unified Hymn 434)

The characteristics of "those who remained" have made their conclusion through the covenant and know the end. When the Israelites came out of Egypt, they made their conclusion with "The 3 Feasts" and the "Tabernacle." Those who knew that also understood that world evangelization could only take place when they entered Canaan. The 70 workers of the Early Church possessed the assurance of Calvary and the mission of the Mt. of Olives and experienced the power of the Holy Spirit at Mark's upper room. These 70 workers were spread throughout the field, so works had no choice but to take place. Finding these "70 Disciples" is the strategy regarding the 237 nations and 5,000 tribes. You must regard these as signposts for the rest of your life.

1. Standing on the Path of the 70 Workers Is Victory in Faith
When God sent Jacob's family to Egypt, there were 70 of them, (Exodus 1:5) When Moses went up Mt. Sinai, God told him to go with 70 elders. (Exodus 24:1) God also told him to take the 70 elders and stand in front of the tent of meeting. (Numbers 11:16) In his vision, Ezekiel saw 70 elders standing in front of the Altar of Incense, (Ezekiel 8:1-11) Jesus personally appointed 70 disciples and sent them out into the field, (Luke 10:1-20) Like this, you must stand on the path of the 70 workers who remained.

2. Finding and Raising 70 Disciples Is Victory in Life
God has a special plan for those who've received the blessing of 70 workers. It's discovering and raising "70 Disciples." When 70 church officers gathered, God opened the doors to 15 nations. (Acts 1:14 & 2:9~11) Because the 70 church officers moved, a group of priests; (Acts 6:7) Samaria; (Acts 8:4-8) Paul; (Acts 9:10 & 15) an Ethiopian eunuch; Acts 8:26 & 40 and Cornelius returned. Acts 10:1-45 Even in times of tribulation, the Church at Antioch was established, (Acts 11:19) and in times of church crises, everyone gathered and prayed all night, (Acts 12:1~25) In this manner, 3,000 and 5,000 disciples arose. (Acts 2:41 & 4:1~5)

3. Seeing the 70 Fields is Victory in Business
With these "70 Disciples," you can create 70 fields. You must stake your life on the ministry of "70 Disciples" God scattered the Israelites through the diaspora. Within them, the "70 Disciples" who had the Gospel existed. They raised works in the 70 fields and restored the economy of light. (A Seller of Purple Cloth, a Tanner, Tent Makers, Treasurers, & a Seamstress)

If you're able to do this, God will make your life into that of the "70 Disciples." In the end, your business will establish "70 Disciples," your church will establish "70 Regions," your posterity will establish "70 Tribes," and your position will establish "70 Nations."

[Covenantal Prayer] Dear God, help me relay what you desire the most. Thank you for the new answers that'll come. Through me, may "The 70 Workers Movement" that you desire be relayed to "70 Nations" and the 237. I'm certain that works will take place through vital disciples raised by You. May this be a new start. In Jesus Christ's name, I pray. Amen.
