“Urgent Prayer Request: Pastor Yongdoo Kim's Retinas have Burst”
We are reaching out to you with an urgent prayer request for Pastor Yongdoo Kim. On Wednesday, June 28, while he was delivering the evening service message, a severe abnormality occurred in the retina of his right eye, resulting in bleeding and subsequent blindness. Upon visiting an ophthalmologist, it was revealed that the problematic retina had ruptured, causing loss of vision in his right eye. The volume of blood flow was alarmingly high, and immediate surgery within the next day or two is crucial to prevent irreversible damage to the optic nerve and total blindness.
Despite the ophthalmologist’s busy schedule, an urgent surgery has been scheduled for Pastor Yongdoo Kim on Friday, June 30th, around 4:00 PM Korean time. (Friday, June 30th, around 0 AM Pacific Time) The surgical procedure will involve addressing retinal pathology and crystalline lens complications, with a possibility of further details being assessed during the incision due to the significant presence of blood.
Following the surgery, Pastor Kim will require an unconditional period of one month for rest and recovery. During the initial two weeks, he must strictly sleep face down, speak slowly, and minimize movement with utmost caution. This eye damage has been issued at the point ahead of important meetings and important decisions inside and outside the church.
A male lion suddenly appeared three times and roared in anger as if devouring it thru vision. Subsequent interpretations revealed three significant messages: firstly, the church is currently facing a profound test, specifically targeting the head pastor; secondly, the Holy Fire missionary group’s a providence rally in S. Korea, guided by Pastor Joseph Kim, is being threatened with disruption; and thirdly, there are attempts to hinder the establishment of the Holy Fire Nations Healing Center by obstructing the building rental contract and preventing the planned meeting led by Pastor Jooeun Kim and Solomon.
The Lord has told Pastor Yongdoo Kim’s son, Pastor Joseph, in advance that a great test would come, so that everyone should unite and overcome through prayer. Pastor Yongdoo Kim has expressed his commitment to share the prayer topics of Holy Fire Ministries, fellow pastors, and church members with God while he rests in his hospital bed.
Pastor Yongdoo Kim humbly requests the prayers of believers, acknowledging the power of collective faith and supplication. Let us all join hands and stand together in unwavering faith. As the Scripture states, "I fill up in my body what is lacking in the afflictions of Christ for the sake of his body, the church" (Colossians 1:24).
