[Special] It Shall Be Done for You as You Have Believed



"And Jesus said to the centurion, 'Go; it shall be done for you as you have believed.' And the servant was healed that very moment.'" (Matthew 8:13)


When you are faced with hardship and fall into difficulties, you might feel like God is far from you and He has turned His face from you. Some of you think, "Does He know me?" Others think, "Does He listen to my prayer?" This indicates a lack of faith in God the Almighty.

Though David underwent tremendous hardship he said, "If I ascend to heaven, You are there; if I make my bed in Sheol, behold, You are there. If I take the wings of the dawn, if I dwell in the remotest part of the sea, even there Your hand will lead me, and Your right hand will lay hold of me." (Psalm 139:8-10)

Just as he said, God the Creator is the master in control of the whole universe and things in the heavens and the earth transcending space and time. The world is vast and spacious for men, but it is no problem at all for God. When God issues forth His original voice, it works at every corner of the world transcending space and time. So, there is nothing impossible.

Isaiah 57:19 reads, "'Creating the praise of the lips peace, peace to him who is far and to him who is near,' says the LORD, 'and I will heal him.'" Here, 'creating the praise of the lips' means that the fulfillment of God's word is assured as written in Numbers 23:19.

The Original Voice Thundered by God

In Genesis chapter 1, God the Creator created the heavens and the earth and all things in them by thundering His original voice. God said, "Let there be light," "Let the waters below the heavens be gathered into one place, and let the dry land appear," "Let the earth sprout vegetation, plants yielding seed, and fruit trees on the earth bearing fruit after their kind with seed in them," "Let there be lights in the expanse of the heavens to separate the day from the night," "Let the waters teem with swarms of living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth in the open expanse of the heavens." Everything was created just as He had spoken.

In this way, all things in the heavens and the earth that were created by God's original voice have His voice in them, so when the original voice is heard, even inanimate things obey the voice. That's why the wind and the surging waves stopped and became calm when Jesus, the Son of God, commanded them with the original voice as recorded in Luke 8:24-25.

Then, is it possible for men to hear and obey the original voice? A centurion from Rome was able to hear the original voice from Jesus and experience God's power transcending space and time through the voice. It was possible because the centurion possessed faith that met God's justice and he obeyed. Then, what do we have to do, in detail, in order to receive answers to whatever we ask?


To Receive Answers through the Original Voice

Adam, the first man, was created as a living spirit. He listened to only the truth and obeyed it. However, Adam was given free will with which he could choose to obey the truth or not. This was because God didn't want children that obeyed unconditionally like robots.

Teaching him the word of the truth, God wanted Adam to become a child who would love God from the bottom of his heart and who would obey His word out of love. But after a long time, Adam ended up disobeying God's Word through the temptation of Satan and he ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil. Then, his spirit died just as God had spoken, "From the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die." After the spirits of both Adam and Eve had died, they could no longer hear His original voice.

As recorded in Romans 6:16 reads, "…you are slaves of the one whom you obey…" Adam, who disobeyed, and his descendants became slaves of the enemy devil and Satan that control sins. They came to think, speak, act, and commit sins according to Satan's instigation, and they were destined to death.

But the Almighty and Omniscient God foreknew Adam would commit sin, so He prepared Jesus Christ before the beginning of time and sent Him to this earth when His appointed time came. Jesus, the Son of God, died as the atoning sacrifice. He redeemed mankind from all sins and on the third day from the death He broke the authority of death and resurrected. He became the Savior of mankind.

Just as written in Romans 8:2 saying, "For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death," anyone who believes in Jesus Christ can receive the Holy Spirit and reach salvation. Since the spirits of God's children who have received the Holy Spirit are revived, they can come to hear the original voice again. The way to receiving answers to whatever they ask by believing and obeying was opened widely for them.


The Faith of the Centurion Who Had the Heart of Goodness

In Matthew chapter 8 there is a story of a centurion who received his answer by faith. At that time, as a commander of Roman Empire that ruled over Israel, the centurion was in command of 100 soldiers.

The centurion in Matthew chapter 8 was dispatched to Capernaum in Israel and heard about Jesus. He heard that Jesus taught the word of love, goodness, and mercy. He also heard that Jesus performed amazing signs and wonders that men couldn't perform. The centurion had the heart of goodness and he believed all that he heard.

In those days, the reaction to Jesus' teaching and powerful works was different from person to person. Some couldn't believe Him due to their own strong self-framework although they witnessed God's works that Jesus performed and they even passed judgment and condemnation on Jesus. Others believed and followed Him, but they just deemed Him a great prophet. But still others realized in their hearts and believed that Jesus came to the earth as God's Son to fulfill His duty as the Savior. If you lived in Jesus' time, among the three types that are indicated above, which type would you fall under?

In John chapter 9, a man blind from birth met Jesus and gained his sight. He said, "Since the beginning of time it has never been heard that anyone opened the eyes of a person born blind. If this man were not from God, He could do nothing." Jesus also said in John 14:11, "Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise believe because of the works themselves." Then, the man said "Lord, I believe." And he worshiped Him.

Since the centurion of Roman Empire had a good heart, he could hear and believe what Jesus did and come before Him even though he was not an Israelite.

The Centurion Who Experienced the Works Transcending Space and Time

Jesus thundered His original voice to the centurion by saying, "It shall be done for you as you have believed" and performed God's work transcending space and time. What is the reason? The centurion put complete trust in Jesus and had a heart of obedience to whatever He commanded him to do. In particular, He had a sincere heart and love for souls.

In Matthew chapter 8, the centurion came before Jesus and said, "Lord, my servant is lying paralyzed at home, fearfully tormented." He came to Jesus not for his own parents, brothers, or children, but for his servant. He felt like he was in pain although it was the pain of his servant. Jesus couldn't help but be moved by his heart.

Jesus said to the centurion who loved his servant as himself, "I will come and heal him." But the centurion said, "Lord, I am not worthy for You to come under my roof, but just say the word, and my servant will be healed." He could boldly say so because his faith is true. He also said, "For I also am a man under authority, with soldiers under me; and I say to this one, 'Go!' and he goes, and to another, 'Come!' and he comes, and to my slave, 'Do this!' and he does it." Jesus marveled and said to those who were following him, "Truly I say to you, I have not found such great faith with anyone in Israel."

When we do things God has told us to do, don't do things He has told us not to do, keep things He told us to keep, and throw away things He told us to throw away, we can go before God and ask with confidence. 1 John 3:21-22 reads, "Beloved, if our heart does not condemn us, we have confidence before God; and whatever we ask we receive from Him, because we keep His commandments and do the things that are pleasing in His sight."


The Powerful Works Transcending Space and Time

Psalm 19:4 talks about the original light by saying, "Their line has gone out through all the earth, and their utterances to the end of the world. In them He has placed a tent for the sun." It was in this way, the original voice Jesus thundered went out through all the earth, and their utterances to the end of the world. In other words, the power of the voice takes place regardless of distance and space. Also, the original voice transcends time, so the words Jesus spoke never disappear and they are fulfilled when we prepare the proper vessel to receive answers.

The powerful works transcending space and time unceasingly occur in Manmin Central Church. One day, Sister Maria from Pakistan stayed in Korea. She came to me with her sister's photo and asked me to pray for her sister. Her sister's name is Cynthia. She was in danger of death due to celiac disease. Her doctor said chances were slim that surgery could be conducted successfully. In such a situation, I laid my hand on Cynthia's picture and prayed for her earnestly. Cynthia was in Pakistan and from that moment she got better and her health was quickly recovered. (Photo 3-5)

Such powerful works transcending space and time took place in Russia United Crusade held in Saint Petersburg in Russia in November 2003. The crusade was broadcast live via 12 satellites in about 150 countries including Europe, Asia, North America, Latin America, and Russia. Also people gathered in cities in four districts in Russia and neighboring countries like Kiev in Ukraine and they attended the crusade 'on-screen.' Many people who had received the prayer with faith through TV at home were healed of their diseases and they sent their testimonies through phone calls or email. (Photo 1)

Although we are not together in the same place, if we are together in the spiritual world with faith, we can experience the same work when the original voice is proclaimed. Just like the centurion who showed God perfect faith, obedience, and true deeds of love, we can enjoy answers and blessed lives when we believe in the power of God who works transcending space and time.

Beginning in 1993 through 2004, I conducted the Two-week Consecutive Special Revival Meetings for 12 years. In the meetings, countless people were healed of their diseases, received solutions to their life problems and were led to the way of salvation.

God had me finish the revival meetings with the 2004 Revival Meeting as the last such meeting because God planned another 'stage of take-off.' God had me start a new study concerning the spiritual world that was at a different level from the previous one. At first, there were things that I couldn't understand. There were unfamiliar words, but I learned with obedience and believing that I would realize the meanings someday because that was God's will.

After I was called as a servant of the Lord by God, I only armed myself with the Word of God and prayer. In order to lead numerous souls to the way of salvation by receiving the power of God, I fasted and cried out in prayer. I had to struggle in scorching heat and freezing weather. I gave 10-day, 21-day, and 40-day fasting, and prayed day and night clinging to God. However, in comparison, the new study of the spiritual world was harder than these beyond measure. I held fast to the Word although it felt unfamiliar to me and I even didn't know what the words meant. Yet, I still prayed fervently and earnestly like Jacob prayed earnestly at the Jabbok River until I understood the Word.

In addition, my physical body had to suffer from various symptoms. Just as people who leave our atmosphere on a spaceship have to get trained to adapt to the different environment that is different from the earth, a variety of marvelous phenomena happened to me in the process when I reached the level God wanted. I overcame everything with love and faith in God, and I learned and gained spiritual knowledge about the origin of God and the law of love and justice. Additionally, the power increased as I reached the level God wanted.

God wants to fulfill His providence with the best power that is beyond human imagination at this end time. That is, He will let us build the Grand Sanctuary that proclaims the glory of God to the whole world. He allowed for us to return the gospel to Israel. In September, 2009, I boldly preached the message about 'Why Is Jesus Our Only Savior?" in the Israel United Crusade held in International Convention Center that is the center of Jerusalem. Moreover, the crusade was aired in around 220 countries in 8 languages via public TVs, cable TVs, and satellites including TBN-Russia, CNL TV, En Lace, and GCN TV. (Photo 12)

Therefore, we should realize the end time is drawing near and strive to adorn ourselves as the brides of the Lord. By doing so, I hope you will receive the blessing of souls' prosperity and all things' going well. Furthermore, I pray in the name of the Lord that you will give great glory to God as a precious tool to achieve God's providence.
