Like arrows in the hands of a warrior are sons born in one's youth. Blessed is the man whose quiver is full of them. I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, whoever humbles himself like this child is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven. And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. Fathers, do not exasperate your children; instead, bring them up in the training and instruction of the Lord. Train a child in the way he should go, (Together) and when he is old he will not turn from it. 2nd / Remnant Arise Presider Choir Presider Together Together Together Together Prayer Presider Choir Preacher Preacher Together Presider Together Preacher God Bless!

7 Elijah Introduction How can we receive the answers of God? Do not listen to the sermon; instead, listen to the Word of God. When we listen to the Word, we do not learn about Elijah, we learn about the God of Elijah. If we know about God, we can communicate with Him. From that moment on, worship begins. It is at this time that we can create a covenantal masterpiece. Elijah created a tremendous masterpiece of the covenant. The moment you hold on to the covenant and challenge to leave behind a life masterpiece, true answers begin. What is the covenant that Elijah possessed? God desires to bless humankind, but the angel of praise who doesn t want this fell from heaven. That is why praise is important during worship. This became the start of the Ge 3 problem. Satan tempted man and told man not to believe in God, but that he can become like God. This became the start of the Ge 6 Nephilim problem. The culture of the entire world is becoming a demonic culture but no one knows this fact. This led to the creation of the culture of the Tower of Babel in Ge 11. The Freemasons say that they will make all of the young adults and future descendants into the slaves of Satan in the future. They also officially say they worship Satan. The forces of darkness and Satan that we cannot see with our eyes attack the powerful nations and drive the entire world into destruction through Satanic culture. Each time this happened, God gave the Gospel and called the evangelists. Now, God has called you. Main discourse 1. Know the reason and rise to the challenge. Even now, people do not know why disasters come and why we must not worship idols. We must know the reason and challenge. 1) This event took place in long ages past (before the time of creation). 2) It is a long-standing problem. 3) It is a problem with the same roots. 4) The disasters that will come in the future 5) And the problem of hidden personal disasters are the same. For this reason, we must solve it with only the Gospel. 2. There is something that is more important.? Nazirite (2Ki 1:8) 1) Nazirite - 2Ki 1:8 is what we call a Nazirite. 2) They began to pray full-force to save the world. 3) They began to restore happiness and strength. 1Ki 18:42 Elijah s prayer led to the end of all of the spiritual problems of the family line and nation. 3. Elijah who created a covenantal masterpiece. 1) He warned that in the future a drought would come and destroy everyone. They must come out from this. 2) Let me fight with the 850 false prophets. 3) We must save the dying children. Elijah boldly won and was victorious. However, when Jezebel tried to kill Elijah, he fled and asked God to take his life. God led him to Mount Horeb instead. Conclusion- Elijah who went to Mount Horeb This is what God said on Mount Horeb 1) I have left behind 7,000 disciples. 2) Find the disciple named Elisha. 3) A new king will come into power. Do not worry. Remnants must rise to the greatest challenge within God s power. Church officers must challenge for the spiritual summit. Pastors must challenge to become leaders with a regimented lifestyle so that the works of re-creation can arise. In doing so, we must avert this crisis. When you understand the Word today, answers will begin. The works will begin when we hold on to the covenant.

8 Elisha Introduction Elijah and Elisha are important figures. Elijah left behind an important covenantal masterpiece during an important age. Elisha who held on to that covenant left behind a masterpiece of answers. The first service message was about the important confrontation on Mount Carmel. This is our commission. 1) How should Remnants devote themselves? They must rise to the greatest challenge within God s power which is the spiritual summit. Rise to the greatest challenge within God s power and prayer. We must get a taste of this. We must make the greatest challenge just like the 7,000 disciples that were raised up. 2) Church officers must enjoy the blessing of recreation within this spiritual summit. They must enjoy the blessing of Obadiah. 3) Pastors must become the greatest evangelists within this spiritual summit. First, I hope that the great power of Mount Carmel may come upon you. God has called us like Elijah and Elisha to carry out this work (confrontation on Mount Carmel). We are devoting ourselves now for that day. Main discourse 1. 1 Ki 19:19-21, Elisha who chose this path during the most difficult time Remnants must not be self-conscious before the world and instead, go forward with ability and skill. 1) Elisha was plowing with twelve yoke of oxen when he was called and he followed. (v.19) 2) He burned the plowing equipment and followed Elijah. (v.21) He staked his life and followed him. 3) He made his resolution quickly. This means that he saw something important. 1) This was right before Elijah was called by God. 2) There were many prophets at the scene and they all knew this mystery. However, they were satisfied with what they had. Only Elisha followed Elijah until the very end. Elisha s desire was to receive a double portion of the spirit that Elijah had received. 3) When Elijah was called by God, He gave his cloak to Elisha. 3. 2Ki 6:9-24, He raised up the Dothan movement that gathered the disciples throughout the world. 1) With the strength of God, he blocked the great culture of darkness of Aram. Because of you, the light of God will shine upon the darkness. 2) Even though the Arameans surrounded Dothan, God struck them blind. The Arameans came to fight, but God prepared the victory. 3)That is why they won without fighting. God s people win without fighting. Conclusion 1) 2Ki 6:14, It may appear as though we are surrounded. 2) 2Ki 6:15, Those whose spiritual eyes are dim grow anxious and afraid. 3) 2 Ki 6:16, "O Lord, open his eyes so he may see. Help him to see that those who are with us are more than those who are with them." God will mobilize the heavenly armies wherever the evangelists go and protect them. May this be the day in which we restore the blessings of Elijah and Elisha. 2. 2Ki2:1-11, Elisha who followed Elijah until the very end and asked for a double portion of the spirit
