Lowell Ellanson: Chasing after Father

I just read Masako Ando’s post about Fathers resurrecting through Hyung Jin Nim after three years of Father’s ascension

Reading her observation, reminded me of something that I have been meaning to post for quite a long time which is of a similar theme.

If you will remember, in His first year here in Pa. Hyung Jin Nim spent much time camping and making videos at what He called Base Camp. In each of these videos he would either start or end the video with the phrase, “chasing after Father”.

Then, last winter, He spent every Friday night sleeping out survival style. That would be the winter of 2014-2015. That winter was a record breaking winter in terms of continual record breaking cold temps. There were around 10 brothers who would join with him every Friday for this “bush-crafting” training. I was one of them. Every night, many being sub zero, Hyung Jin Nim would wake around 4-4:30 (I would hear him) before waking everyone else for HDK at 5 am and he would build a roaring fire so that when everyone emerged from their tents and sleeping bags we would join together and warm at the fire. Then after singing, praying and HDK, He would provide a warm breakfast which oftentimes, Yeon Ah would bring that we would cook on the fire.

This took place every weekend from November until springtime. I know you have probably heard this before. There is something I wish to add though.

The following summer, in a small group of people, Hyung Jin Nim was reflecting on the winter’s cold nights. Then he said something that made me reflect and pray. He said that Father had to endure more cold, every single night as he traveled from Pyungyang to Pusan after being released from prison in Hyung Nam. He said that Father had no warm sleeping bags, or Arctic Pro boots to keep him warm. He had no warm food to eat, sometimes could not even start a fire because of the danger around him.

After He said this, my spiritual sense gave me the notion, that just as Father (with Won Pil Kim and Mr. Park???) ; went this impossibly difficult course to preserve the providence; He was going a similar course. The spirit world told me that just as Father carried this man who Father refused to leave behind for he represented all mankind, Hyung Jin Nim brought us through these difficult life threatening circumstances representing all Blessed Families.

I believe that Hyung Jin Nim was making this strong condition, with the most sincerity to unite totally with Father in heart and to build the foundation which ultimately led him to Break the Silence, and undertake stepping into His Anointing, coming into alignment with Father.

Yes, Brother’s and Sister’s during that week after week course of minus 10—15—and colder nights, he was in prayer and solitude carrying us all on His back in order to return us to Father’s authority, and fulfill the providence of the second (and third) kingship. As Father clearly said, He has the depth of Heart and Character to inherit His anointing.
