25 February 2018 - Your Disqualifications are your Qualifications in Christ - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes Online - New Creation Church Sermon Notes OnlineChurch is not a building - it is a gathering of God’s people to celebrate the Lord Jesus Christ who is altogether lovely. In the kingdom of God when you lose your usefulness, capacity to produce, or when you go through a valley/ dark time, the Lord Jesus never leaves us. Psalm 23 - The beginning of Psalm 23 is written like as if King David is talking to you. When the valley of the shadow of death is mentioned, he changes to talk to God directly. In your dark times, it’s time for you to talk to God. You will walk through your challenges, you won’t stay there. God prepares a table before you in the presence of your enemies. Even when the problems are still present, God wants you to feed on His word. “The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me to lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside the still waters. He restores my soul; He leads me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; You anoint my head with oil; My cup runs over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me All the days of my life; And I will dwell in the house of the LORD Forever.” (Psalms 23:1-6 NKJV) In the day of Elijah’s faith, ravens fed him. In the day of his discouragement, angels fed him. Be glad that God doesn’t always answer your prayers. Elijah asked God to let him die, but Elijah has not died, even till now. He was carried up to heaven in a chariot of fire and never experienced death. Luke 10:36-42 - The secret of loving your neighbor is explained in the following story of Mary and Martha. You can’t love your neighbor if you don’t sit at Jesus’ feet to receive from Him first. Grace is not about what you can do. Just receive from God. There’s nothing you can do for God on your own. The kingdom of God is the only kingdom that asks you to receive without having to give anything of your self-efforts. The parables of Jesus are all about how the last, least and lost can get God’s favor. “So which of these three do you think was neighbor to him who fell among the thieves?” And he said, “He who showed mercy on him.” Then Jesus said to him, “Go and do likewise.” Now it happened as they went that He entered a certain village; and a certain woman named Martha welcomed Him into her house. And she had a sister called Mary, who also sat at Jesus’ feet and heard His word. But Martha was distracted with much serving, and she approached Him and said, “Lord, do You not care that my sister has left me to serve alone? Therefore tell her to help me.” And Jesus answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and troubled about many things. But one thing is needed, and Mary has chosen that good part, which will not be taken away from her.”” (Luke 10:36-42 NKJV) Matthew 12:20 - A reed is common in Israel. A bruised reed is useless. Even though we are incapable in and of ourselves, Jesus will not abandon us. A smoking flax is like a candle wick that is burning out. Even when we are burning out, Jesus will not throw us away. “A bruised reed He will not break, And smoking flax He will not quench, Till He sends forth justice to victory;” (Matthew 12:20 NKJV) Isaiah 42:3 - Matthew 12:20 says “victory” instead of “truth”. When you listen to the truth (the gospel of Grace) you will get your victory. “A bruised reed He will not break, And smoking flax He will not quench; He will bring forth justice for truth.” (Isaiah 42:3 NKJV)

Sleep Training 2 Year Old Kids: Helpful Methods and How this Journey grew my Faith
I share tips and my experience of sleep training a 2 year old: my Daughter Maeleth Sarah Goh.
In this post, I will be sharing about my journey of sleep training my two year old (24 months old) daughter Maeleth Sarah Goh: the methods that have worked well and also how it has been a journey of faith for me. Getting Mae to fall asleep and to sleep through the night has always been a struggle for us so far. But I feel that the sleep training progress is very encouraging - I see light at the end of the tunnel. Yesterday, it only took Mae 30 mins to fall asleep and night - I was so happy! By sleep training, I mean having Mae fall asleep on her bed by herself without patting her to sleep or carrying her until she sleeps. Throughout the whole process, I am by her side until she falls asleep. 18 February 2018 - God Still Loves Me Even When I Fail - Pastor Mark Ng Chinese New Year Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesChinese New Year is like a picture of grace (undeserved favor) - as a child whose family celebrates Chinese New Year, one wakes up with red envelopes that contain money, has yummy goodies to eat, and only words of blessings are spoken that day. Isaiah 11:8 - In the Millennium when Jesus returns to rule on earth, it will be a beautiful world. Little children will even play safely near once-dangerous animals. In the Millennium, people who die at the age of 100 are considered to have died young. Chinese New Year is like a mini-Millennium experience in the family for 15 days. “The nursing child shall play by the cobra’s hole, And the weaned child shall put his hand in the viper’s den.” (Isaiah 11:8 NKJV) Grace is not what we can do for God - it’s about what God can do for you. Chinese New Year is also known as the Spring Festival: 春 (spring) = 三 (three: the Triune God) + 人 (man: Jesus became a man) + 日 (day: the day where Jesus died for us is the day of salvation) Jesus knew the state we were in and He came to do a thoroughly “spring cleaning” for us. Romans 5:9 - The auspicious color of Chinese New Year is red. Red like the blood of Jesus which has cleansed us from our sins. “Therefore, since we have now been justified [declared free of the guilt of sin] by His blood, [how much more certain is it that] we will be saved from the wrath of God through Him.” (ROMANS 5:9 AMP) My Slain in the Spirit Experience and How this Phenomenon is Biblical - A Daily Devotional15/2/2018 My Slain in the Spirit Experience and How this Phenomenon is Biblical - A Daily Devotional Amilee and I attended the School of Evangelism course conducted by Christ for All Nations (CfAN) and Evangelist Reinhard Bonkke and we had our first slain in the Spirit experience!
