Once you report before God, you must follow through, no matter how difficult it may be. Whatever you do, once you pledge to God, you will resolve it. If you live your daily life with the attitude, you will never fail. However, to reach that level, it will be a real battle.

2

Satan has his strategy. You should avoid getting mired in his strategy. To protect yourself, you must receive from God the internal strength that will liberate you externally. To this end, you must pray. Then your prayer will become serious. It will become a serious prayer.

3

You must align yourself with God daily. When you start in the morning, you should report to God your plan of action for the day. Always report to Him that you will follow through on your plan. It can be a short prayer. It doesn't have to be a long prayer, but you should report to God. You should follow through on what you reported to God.

4

You keep your promise you made to your friend, right?

By the same token, you must fulfill what you report to God, no matter how difficult it may be. With this attitude, you fight throughout the day, and before you go to bed, you should reflect on how you did. You report to God that I worked such and such.

You should say how much you accomplished—if 80%, then you should repent for the 20% you did not fulfill. If you ignore your promise or treat it as a trivial matter when you did not fulfill your promise to Him, it will become a problem.

5

The next morning, you again report before you start. Then, if again you cannot fulfill your goal for the day... Without accomplishing your goal, you again ignore or treat it as trivial.

If you continue having such an irresponsible attitude for three days or more than three times, you will not be able to relate to God. Therefore, when you do not fulfill your promise, you must take it seriously and offer a prayer of repentance. You will be able to recognize if God accepts your repentance.

01Pledging to God

6

Once you report before God, you must follow through, no matter how difficult it may be. Whatever you do, once you pledge to God, you must resolve to do it. If you live your daily life with this attitude, you will never fail. However, to reach that, it will be a real battle. Satan will be testing you on purpose.

7

You stand in a position where the entire universe will focus on what you do; therefore, you must be earnest in beginning a battle where you ask for the mobilization of the spirit world and the mobilization of all your ancestors. Prayer is like announcing a full-force attack by shooting your largest cannon to start a battle that determines the rise or fall of your nation.

8

You declare with a loud noise. Against such a spirit, the enemy has to surrender to you. As you repeat such daily battles, you will gain confidence.

If you live your life with such an attitude, do you think you will be tired and defeated?

If you pray practically and substantially, it is most effective. Your standard of victory at one moment will be connected to the eternal victory. As you repeat it, you will continue to advance.
