Please enable us to resemble your image

Beloved Father! Since you know the heart of your children gathered here, please allow even the cells in their bodies to move toward their compassionate Father.

Please permit all of their minds and bodies to be captivated by Your touch of love. Please allow them to appear collectively as elements in harmony, and at this time, please consecrate them as warriors of Heaven who can race forward, risking their lives to testify about Your Word.

Father, look upon Your children gathered here with compassion. Since in our destined course of restoration we still need to rise to a higher level by relying on the Word of life, You have permitted us, O Father of love, please extend Your hand, hold the hands of Your inadequate children, and guide us.

Since we have bowed down to You with united minds and bodies, Father, please embrace us, lead us, and raise us. Furthermore, we earnestly hope and desire that you will transform our minds to become heavenly minds.

Please bless the many people who are present here today, and please allow Your works of life, works of inspiration, and works of resurrection to be manifested through them.

Today we have placed all the ideas we have about the present age before You, and since we have come before Your majesty with the hearts of gentle, mild children, Father, please bring about Your work of re-creation through the touch of Your grace. Please reveal the fire of the Holy Spirit.

Beloved Father, we earnestly hope and desire that You will show us Your love and, in these Last Days, allow us to open the door leading out of the realm of death, which has been blocked, and reveal the glory of our Father's victory.

We know that, henceforth, there is no need for many speeches. Even if the children gathered here have not received many words, please allow them to receive the grace which You have permitted them and befit them, and grant that they may be equal to what they have been given.

Heavenly Father, since we have promised and pledged before Heaven at this time to achieve the Will You have promised and granted, if there are empty vessels, please fill them all.

Please accept us as children who, intoxicated by Your ample grace, can return glory to You and be gratified. Furthermore, we earnestly hope and desire, Father, that You will allow us the grace of finding that we are children whom You, Father, can love.

Please bind together as one the hearts of those who give and those who receive. We earnestly hope and desire that You will allow our mind to be inclined where Heaven is inclined, our body to move by Heaven's movements, and our mind and body to follow the example of and resemble Your image, Father.

We also hope and pray that in the remaining time, you will touch us with your words and compassionate commands. I pray in the name of our loving Lord, Aju! (July 1, 1956)
