THE LATTER SHALL BE GREATER: A WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT FOR THE FUTURE
"On this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it".... Matthew 16:18
History reminds us that a prison sentence does not have the final word over a God given mission.
Rev. Sun Myung Moon faced imprisonment in the United States, serving approximately 12–13 months before his release in August 1985. What was intended by some to silence him became part of a larger testimony. He returned to public ministry and was welcomed by supporters at a major rally.
Today, as Hak Ja Han Moon faces her own difficult season, we must remember that history is never finished in the middle of the story.
A difficult chapter is not necessarily the final chapter.
There are moments when leaders are misunderstood, opposed, criticized, and surrounded by circumstances they never expected. Yet adversity has often become the furnace in which perseverance, conviction, and legacy are tested.
The prophet declared:
“The glory of this latter house shall be greater than of the former…” Haggai 2:9
And again:
“Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.” Job 8:7
This is a season to pray harder not to rejoice in suffering, not to surrender to fear, and not to pronounce the end before the story has been completed.
We pray for the strength for Hak Ja Han Moon our TM.
We pray for justice, wisdom, mercy, and truth.
We pray for those who carry the burden of leadership during this difficult hour.
And we pray that whatever the outcome of present circumstances, the work of peace, family, faith, and reconciliation will not be destroyed.
What the enemy intends as a period of discouragement, God can use as a season of reflection, purification, and preparation.
The history of faith teaches us repeatedly:
Joseph had a prison before the palace.
Daniel had a den before greater influence.
Paul had chains, but the Gospel continued to move.
Nelson Mandela had imprisonment, yet later became a symbol of reconciliation.
Rev. Sun Myung Moon experienced imprisonment, yet returned to continue his public mission.
Therefore, we will not allow the darkness of one season to define the promise of another.
The latter shall be greater.
We shall display greater wisdom.
Greater unity.
Greater compassion.
Greater strength.
A Greater Testimony.
And shall build peace...
We declare that 2027 can be a year of renewed vision and renewed victory not merely victory over circumstances, but victory of faith over fear, hope over despair, and purpose over opposition.
We will not abandon hope in the middle of the battle.
We will pray.
We will stand for truth.
We will continue to seek justice, defend religious freedom, and we will stand with her.
Let us believe that God is still writing "Our Story."
There is still another chapter.
We declare:
THE LATTER SHALL BE GREATER!
