You are the only one keeping you from accomplishing your hopes and dreams.

Step 1.
Write down your dream or your goal that you hope to achieve after you graduate/grow up.
examples

A) I want to go to a certain college
B) I want to be a professional …
C) A career path (I wanted to become an animator or a web designer)
D) I want to become a teacher.

Step 2.
Think of all the times you made a bad grade in class or on an important test.

Step 3. Think WHY did you fail to make a good grade?
Was it because you

A) Had bad feelings towards the teacher? Were you angry or upset about something?
B) Was it because you were lazy, distracted, procrastinated?
C) Was it because you didn’t listen or didn’t follow directions well?
D) Was it because you were busy with things that are not as important.
E) Was it because someone close to you made you upset or angry?

The source of our problems are all in the heart. Find what is wrong with your heart and try to fix it.

examples of problems with the heart.
Anger, jealousy, envy, feeling unapreciated, feeling unloved, holding grudges, not forgiving, being upset with people.
Pride, arrogance, selfishness, thinking you are right, not listening to instructions.

Think that the problems with your heart are the only thing keeping God from fulfilling your dream.

Sometimes we wonder why God doesn’t give us the things we hope for. But think about it. If God makes you famous. If God makes you rich. If God makes you a teacher or a leader then others will look up to you and you will have to be a good example for others. But if you are arrogant, selfish, if you always think you are right, then you would be a terrible example for others. How can God make you famous or an example for others if your character is bad?

Focus on your goal and focus on Heaven. To make it to Heaven you must become a good person. Think to yourself,

“If I don’t get rid of these things then I won’t be able to achieve my goal and ultimately I won’t be able to make it to heaven.”

So how do we get rid of our bad characteristics? Answer:

Prayer and Repentance.

1. Pray: We have to ask God to show us what’s wrong with us.

2. Repent: We have to acknowledge the fact that we were wrong, confess, and sincerely apologize for our sins.

3. Take Action: Then we have to make sure not to repeat the same mistake again. We have to find a better way to react the next time we get the chance.

Today we will have bible study with Tahlia’s nieces somewhere between 4pm and 6pm at the house. So if you stop by know that when you come in 6 or 7 girls may be staring up at you.

This morning’s revelation.

Take some time to read Wednesday scriptures. Wednesday’s message is about perfecting yourself. Through prayer we can be changed. Pray that you can receive SSN’s prayer. Whatever is wrong with you you must fix it right now. But first you have to recognize what is wrong. Then you can consult with Jesus about it. There are a couple ways.

1. Think of the people you met. Great people in providence do tend to have some crazy people in their family. They think about it as they are dealing with them and become good leaders. Maybe your family members are crazy. Some people end up becoming like the crazy people they are close to.

2. If someone keeps telling you that you are like this or like that then you need to fix that disease. This is history of brides so if you don’t fix it you will be kicked out. The qualifications are really high. So many who did not repent ended up leaving providence. They thought they were always right. Those who repent are righteous [not those with less sins].

3. If you don’t understand then believe knowing that a point will come when you can understand. In 1999 half of Korean providence left. They thought SSN was running away from his problems. Even if they saw so many miracles their mind went according to the rumors they heard. They didn’t see or hear from SSN directly, but judged him. What SSN did in the foreign nations was truly the will of God. There are still people thinking wrongly about SSN. Jesus is spirit so he can’t tell people directly. That is SSN’s role. JJ also set conditions to be able to deliver the word. You have to have taken actions in order to be able to preach. Otherwise you can’t save people. Righteous people may not have huge sins like others but they are the ones who repent of their wrongs. Repent and then testify with the Lord’s mentality.

Tonghangjabok. Means so much more than repent deeply. It means I will die if I don’t repent tearing my clothes and putting my life on the line.

Even JoEun said she’s goes crazy sometimes. Keep an eye out for it.

This is world is fair. Each of us has our own things to overcome. We can see others overcoming their weaknesses. You can climb up and see the difference between you and others. Watch out for what you are not good at. Polish yourself by words and looking at your situation.

If someone else can go to spiritual world then why can’t you? This is what JoEun told John when they met. If I am apostle and I can do it then why can’t you? Be willing to challenge yourself. So don’t be afraid to be a little competitive. Pray more. Serve more. Encourage and challenge others. Look around or you could fall behind. American economy is falling behind because we no longer research about others and try to be competitive. For nations with not so good economies, they watch others carefully and try to gain that edge. Maybe we need a more competitive environment.

Let’s Repent for Sins Committed with the Mouth. Instead let our words be filled with Thankfulness.

James 3:9-12
With the tongue we praise our Lord and Father, and with it we curse men, who have been made in God’s likeness. Out of the same mouth come praise and cursing. My brothers, this should not be. Can both fresh water and salt water flow from the same spring? My brothers, can a fig tree bear olives, or a grapevine bear figs? Neither can a salt spring produce fresh water.

Most of us have read about the Israelites going into Canaan recently. Remember how upset God was with the 10 spies who gave a negative report? Let’s not be like them but instead let’s be like Joshua and Caleb. Those Israelites saw so many miracles. God was continually trying to bring them into a better place. They had so much to be thankful for. But their hearts were filled with grumbling and complaining. But for me personally, I realized that what they were saying wasn’t false. There really were giants in the land. The cities they were attacking really did have large walls fortifying their cities. They felt they had the right to complain and God was so frustrated. They had difficult circumstances but they also had God’s word. Instead of focusing on the spiritual they focused only on their physical circumstances.

We are making new history. We have seen so many tremendous miracles. God brought us to providence. Has any generation ever seen so many revelations from Christ? Are we receiving the word with thankfulness? When we don’t understand do we ask?

Honestly speaking, I sometimes cannot receive the revelations well. Sometimes I’m tired or I don’t fully understand. Looking at myself do I put in the effort and try again or do I complain about my circumstances as an excuse for my shortcoming? I know I should ask more often but still I am struggling with what to ask. But at the very least I can ask the Holy Spirit what I should ask. Instead of grumbling and complaining in our hearts, let’s begin conversing with the Lord.

The mouth is capable of great sin, but also it is capable of praising, expressing thankfulness, and building up positive energy. Let’s build up the positive energy we will need in order to repent and make confessions to the Lord.

If we look only at our normal everyday lives, then it might be hard to do anything different than the usual. But if we keep our eyes on our teacher and Jesus who pray so much and set so many conditions, then we will be able to repent, pray, and improve. We have the tremendous blessing of our teacher’s example before us. Let’s be thankful and repent. Our sins put Jesus on the Cross, but with the same mouth we can repent, testify, bring Jesus down from the cross, and save lives. Jesus even asked us to save SSN.

Let’s pray for ourselves, for our brothers and sisters, for our head leader, and our church. If I’m healthy but my brother is sick, then I can pray as though I am sick. Let’s be filled with thanks, praise, and repentance.

Review by Minister John [notes by Shaun McMillan]

This morning we put the word to practice by waking the dawn.

Please read the wednesday message and scriptures. There are things you need to hear, and some things you need to realize by seeing/reading.

Know the intention. Otherwise you won’t know why things are happening in your life. When you read the bible know the intention of why the Lord inspired you to read that passage. Find it and be changed.

We are here because our heart is good soil. We are here because of word. We don’t have oney or megachurches. We aren’t perfect and cause each other trouble, but here our spirit can hear the word. Just as Kiyo can recognize Ana’s voice our spirits are attracted by the words. Food for soul is priority. Teaching and having authority over others, interacting with others, doing the things you like to do is not priority. We are not here to gain fame.

Try again and again. Pray and realize what you receive through the word. Be connected and you will have eyes to see things you couldn’t realize before.

Prayer is Jesus. This week we have to pray. Do as the central figure does. SSN is praying so we pray. Our minds have become dead, but SSN is praying for us that our minds will come to life. If our mentality is alive and we can be with Jesus then we can make history of Heaven.

This time period is in spiritual drought. They don’t have words to stimulate them. The word is seeds of the kingdom of heaven. If you listen to word once then your life should be different from then on.

If you go through extreme situations at that point ou have to receive your message from the Lord. Otherwise you don’t value the words of the Lord. You will have to go through again and again. Remember. Remember. Remember the mercy God showed you.

“Even if I love you must receive these difficulties and tribulations. It is money for you. You will need it later on.” Did we gain something from our difficulites? Hallelujah amen.

Life is like preparing for an exam. Learn at that moment.

This is central history. What’s happening outside will happen according to what’s happening inside.

Value. Valuing. If you don’t know how to value words then what do you think will happen? How can you tell if you value the word of God? Keep your focus on the word. Expand your attention span to be able to focus on word from the beginning to the end.

SSN didn’t have any talents so hea sked Jesus to make him and develop him. Just keep doing it. Pick something you are not good at and just challenge it. Whatever you do try to be the best. SSN felt useless, so discouraged. “Who would use me? I don’t think I can be used by you.” Jesus saw his humble heart. Let’s have that mentality of being willing to learn.

Arrogance. We feed Satan a lot.

In the beginning SSN paid people to build WMD but he had to learn to do it himself. Do what Jesus did, do what SSN then you are walking the path.

If you don’t know the value you will lose it. At the point that you can’t run anymore you have to push it. That’s the point. Overcome your limit.

Those who have will have more. If you have relationship with Jesus you will have more and more. Joeun asked if Jesus is with you. For those who feel Jesus is with them they feel it more and more.

Keep the word. If Lord gives you a message don’t forget it. Keep that seed. Keep checking your progress.

Please review message. Share with each other. I would prefer you guys share about what you realized from the word instead of just chatting about whatever. Then when people visit the house they can naturally be lead to get closer to the Lord. Then newcomers will naturally progress.

Prepare yourself before Sunday to receive word well both physically and spiritually. Feed yourself and get enough rest. If you are really focused on your mission then maybe you can fast if you need, but it’s really just a matter of planning. Athletes prepare themselves for that moment of performance. Minister John tries to block all the distractions on Saturday. Please don’t let Satan use you to distract others on Saturday.

Please focus on message. Then you can pray with dedication and desperation. Pray with that burning heart. Let’s keep the fundamentals.

We had 7 new people here yesterday. It’s very possible we could fill this place up or even need to build a new church. Let’s earn and let’s gain through love of Jesus. Let’s bring all the blessings back to Providence.

God’s heart according to Revelation chapter 16-Since it is so, preach.

Wednesday Message Review

This Wednesday’s Message was a crucial message so we have an audio version here for you to listen to in case any of you missed it or want to listen again.

tip: It’s good to review message before going to bed on Wednesday nights.

The message may be short or long but what is important is to realize what Jesus’ intention is when receiving the message. We need to understand the message and take action according to the desired result that Jesus originally had in mind.

Jesus taught us about rapture because he wants to see us achieve rapture in our individual lives. Jesus spoke of both rapture/resurrection as well as having the right mentalities like being humble. We need to hear the bride level word in order for our spirits to be transformed into brides.

The 1st level transformation is most important because we need to achieve it while alive on the earth in order to reach the 2nd level of transformation later on.

The key message is to change. So you should think to yourself, “Am I changing according to this message?” The last and final key point is in order to be raptured completely we need to have love with Jesus.

It’s good to know the keywords from each message. The key words in this message were

be transformed, pride/arrogance, words, rapture, be humble, love

Take actions according to the message. Please read main scriptures before listening to messages.

Remember that you should gain bigger things when you go through tribulations.

Plow your hearts with prayer. Ask Jesus.

Pray according to the week’s message

When you read the message think, “What should I pray for this week?” Another technique is to read the message while looking for the intention and/or Jesus’ desired result. You can pray that you may be humble. You can pray that you will be changed in a good way. You can pray that you will understand the words well. You can pray for you spirit, soul, and mind. Pray for the love between you and Jesus. You can pray that your eyes may see what they need to see, that your ears hear what need to be heard. And may your mind realize what it needs to realize. Pray that you can receive the mentalities of the Lord. These are some message based prayers you can pray to help you become a bride of the Lord for this week.

Take action according to the week’s message

Always think of action you must take. Know that all the actions you take, whether based on message or not will be absorbed by your spirit. Find at least one big action you will take based on word.

The things that you are told, “Do not forget” you should print out. Please take actions based on specific words from that specific message. Don’t just fuse your ideas from all the messages. Print it out and place it on your wall. You must do it.

There are things you shouldn’t forget no matter how busy you get or how many surprise situations you find yourself in. One element of being bride is to listen to God’s words, remember it, and put it to action. Otherwise it means you don’t value it.
