- Matthew 13:31-32 He told them another parable: “The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed, which a man took and planted in his field. Though it is the smallest of all seeds, yet when it grows, it is the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds come and perch in its branches.”
Today I will deliver a message about how [we] can do things that are impossible. How can we do something that is impossible? You cannot build a ‘house in which people live’ with a ‘single tree’ growing on a mountain, if you have hundreds of trees you can build a house.
Thus, something impossible becomes something you are capable of doing when you do it together with many. You, can also do something impossible if you grow.
Even something that is absolutely impossible for a child becomes a possibility for him when he grows up. One absolutely cannot make a pillar from a young tree but can when the tree grows.
‘To grow’ means ‘to make’. It means ‘to become transformed’. Just as people become matured and made as they grow, if people believe in the Holy Trinity, listen to the Messiah’s Word, and take action on it, their thoughts, actions, and spirits, all are gradually made perfect and become transformed. Moreover, ‘people growing’ means that if they do the things they absolutely should do, their levels will rise and so they will be able to do things. When it is grown, it becomes a different world. Just as when sand grew, it became ‘rocks’, which is a different world; and when rocks grew, they became ‘boulders’, human beings too, when they grow – as long as they are made and transformed – become ‘human beings of a completely different world.
No matter how great a ‘grand tree’ may be, it cannot enter a king’s chamber. It must be made into ‘perfect furniture’ in order to enter a king’s chamber. It is the same with Heaven.
No matter who you may be, you do not go to Heaven in the ‘flesh’. You can go only when you raise and transform ‘your spirit’ into a ‘perfect god’. Thus, one cannot go to Heaven if one remains as is. If people remain as they are, they cannot fulfill the ‘will they want’, even in this world. Therefore, you must make yourself.
People live gaining according to the thinking they have done, the hard work they have done, and the things upon which they have taken action. Therefore, you have to think big, take action in big ways, and take action a lot. Then you will gain in big ways, gain a lot, and so you will live enjoying a sense of satisfaction and Heaven.
Today I bless that you will be able to do what is impossible by doing it together with many who have heard the Word and by growing, which is to change and raise your level.
Putting [things] into practice is victory. Having taken action is victory. Complete [things] by taking action doing your best.
Romans 2:6-8 God “will repay each person according to what they have done.” To those who by persistence in doing good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life. But for those who are self-seeking and who reject the truth and follow evil, there will be wrath and anger.
The reason people fail to gain [things] as they live their lives in the world is that they live without purpose, and they live having forgotten the purpose. However, no matter you may be, if you take 100% with purpose, you are 100% certain to gain. Hope is fulfilled in ‘two ways’. Firstly, it is fulfilled through taking action, and, secondly, it is fulfilled by obtaining [things] through taking action.
Food will not be eaten just because you look at it with your eyes. You must actually eat food. Then it will be eaten. The visible physical things are obtained by taking action in reality. You can also obtain the invisible things of the spirit by your ‘body’ taking action.
You must take action, so how will you take action in order to gain? You must do your best. Then you will gain the ‘best things’. If you cannot do your best, you cannot enjoy the ‘best life’ and the ‘best sense of satisfaction’. It is to do your best with all of your skills by putting forth effort and studying [how to do better].
Having acquired the ‘best things’ means having acquired the ‘finest among the given things’. The ‘best things’ are things like pure gold, treasures, and diamond. The ‘next [best] things’ are like copper and iron. You must do your best. Then you can gain the ‘finest things in that area’.
You have to do your best every day. Then you will gain the ‘best things’ within your domain, and you must gain the ‘best things’. Then you will come to live rejoicing and being perfectly satisfied. If you want to gain the ‘best things’, take action 100%.
People who do not do their best and live with ‘incompleteness’ always fail to reach ‘completion’ and end at ‘incompleteness’. May all you who heard the Word today do your best within the Lord and thus live acquiring, using, fulfilling your hopes, and enjoying a sense of satisfaction by doing so!
