Please do not allow us to become people who think that we belong to ourselves.

1

Please do not allow us to become people who think we belong to ourselves. Our minds are not ours, and our lives in motion are not ours, and as the desires we are longing for are not ours please do not allow us to relate to heaven with minds that consider things centered on ourselves. Since we began as yours, we earnestly hope and desire, Father, that you will allow this to become a time when we can move only as yours.

Since we know that our minds must become yours, our bodies also must become yours, and our ideologies and opinions must become yours, please do not tolerate anything that is not yours. If there are elements of evil that you do not want in our minds and bodies, please eliminate them, and we earnestly hope and desire, oh Father, that you will allow this to become a time that moves as yours alone through your having eliminated all the ideologies and opinions that are not yours.

We know that uncountable satans are stalking our minds and our bodies. If the bitter root of sin, which you cannot tolerate, remains, oh Father, we earnestly hope and desire, Father, that you will bring about heavenly acts that will give us the ability to subjugate our minds before you, and that you will appear and bring about heavenly acts of re-creation through the authority of your power.

We know the fact that when heaven moves, the earth cannot help but move, and when the earth faces heaven and requests something, heaven cannot help but accomplish it for the earth. Today are there sons and daughters of heaven who are struggling with sincere minds and true hearts to grasp heaven as their own? Is there any person who has lived his or her entire life thinking of all of heaven's situations as his or her situations, thinking of heaven's work as his or her work, thinking of the ideas of heaven as his or her ideas, and struggled while seeking to grasp this, been treated contemptuously while seeking to grasp this and been driven out while seeking to grasp this? If we have not been in that kind of position, please allow us to be able to report truthfully that we are criminals who cannot be tolerated by heaven.

Now we have realized that heaven exists, and we have realized who our heavenly Father is. Since we know that there remains the necessary condition that we must form a certain kind of destined relationship between you and us, Father, today please allow us to form a destined relationship with you, our heavenly Father, through this kind of heart, and to feel your anguish as our anguish, and your deep regret and sorrow as our deep regret and sorrow. Please allow there to appear before this people and please allow there to appear in this land a heavenly march which goes forth to fight a fierce battle against Satan.

We earnestly hope and desire that you will allow us to be able to drive out from the earth the enemy Satan who has faced heaven and accused it for 6,000 years, to resolve your grief, and to build as soon as possible the ideal garden you have sought.

We have humbly prayed all these things in the name of the lord. Amen.
