1 May 2022 - The Imaginations Of Your Heart - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught us about the creative power in the imaginations of our heart. God’s word shows that out of our heart flows the forces of life. Guard your heart above all else! Praise and Worship Song Performed:
Remind yourself that you are the righteousness of God in Christ. Our sins are not just covered—they have been removed. There is still sin IN our flesh, but God does not see sin ON us. Atonement just means a covering. Jesus is the Lamb of God who took away the sins of the world. Israel changed gods and started to offer their sons to Molech instead of the sin offering of the lamb to the true God. When Israel did this, they were brought into Babylonian captivity. After Israel came back from Babylon, they never went back to idolatry. People have this bad trait of wanting things they cannot have and discrediting what they do have. This is of the flesh. Proverbs 4:20-23 - Firstly, God’s word enters the ear gate. It also enters the eye gate. These gates are what allows entry into your heart. In all your guarding, guard your heart as the most important thing. Let God’s word enter your heart and it will be health to all your flesh. The “heart” here spoken of is “lev” in Hebrew, not “ruach” which is spirit. Your heart is not your spirit. “My son, attend to my words. Turn your ear to my sayings. Let them not depart from your eyes. Keep them in the center of your heart. For they are life to those who find them, and health to their whole body. Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life.” (Proverbs 4:20-23 WEB) Genesis 6:5 - The word “imagination” here is “yeser” in Hebrew. The imaginations in one’s heart will eventually manifest in the outside. “Yahweh saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of man’s heart was continually only evil.” (Genesis 6:5 WEB) Being saved in Christ is like being inside Noah’s ark. Even if you fall, you fall safely within the Ark. There is security in Christ. The Lord said to Noah, “come into the Ark.” After that, He said, “Go outside the Ark.” This is the mark of a leader—first one in and last one out.

17 April 2022 - Resurrection Is Greater Than Death - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince preached a powerful message about resurrection power, and also ministered in worship and words of knowledge for healing. A very timely sermon for Resurrection Sunday! Praise and Worship Song Performed: 1. This Is Amazing Grace - Bethel Music 2. Worthy Is The Lamb - Darlene Zschech 3. You Are My King - New Creation Worship 4. O Praise The Name (Anástasis) - Hillsong Music 5. Rest And Receive (One Thing) - Michael Davis 6. Everlasting - New Creation Worship Pastor Prince ministered in worship and words of knowledge for healing. Pastor Prince asked us to learn this song and sing it this week (tune demonstrated in the audio file above). As you do so, the Lord will set you free and deliver you: “You are my hiding place You always fill my heart With songs of deliverance Whenever I am afraid I will trust in You I will trust in You Let the weak say I am strong In the strength of the Lord” -- Don’t live in the future. Jesus told us to let not our hearts be afraid or troubled. He has given us His peace. We need to choose to let our hearts not be troubled. Our God is a present-day God. He will supply our daily bread. The past is gone and something that cannot be changed. God says He is “I AM that I AM”. It is not a question of coming and going. It is about appearing and disappearing. The resurrected Jesus transcends time and space. He can appear here and disappear instantly. Death was once the greatest power on earth. Now, resurrection is the greatest power. There were some instances of bringing the dead back to life in the four gospels. Jairus’ daughter died and was raised shortly. The widow of Nain’s son was raised on the same day where he died. Lazarus was raised four days after he died. Jesus is not moved by human sentiment. He waited two more days before going to Lazarus. Death tried to come for Jesus multiple times but it could not take Him before the time. At the cross, Jesus cried out with a loud voice, “Finished!” He laid down His life—He did not die from weakness. 3 April 2022 - Simple Things Used Powerfully By God - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince encouraged us to rely on God’s ways rather than the ways of the world. With God’s power backing you up, even simple things will produce mighty results! Praise and Worship Song Performed: 1. Cornerstone - Hillsong Worship 2. Lavish Love - New Creation Worship 3. I Could Sing Of Your Love Forever - Martin Smith 1 Samuel 13:5-7 - Saul was the first king of Israel. People followed him while trembling with fear. “The Philistines assembled themselves together to fight with Israel, thirty thousand chariots, and six thousand horsemen, and people as the sand which is on the seashore in multitude. They came up and encamped in Michmash, eastward of Beth Aven. When the men of Israel saw that they were in trouble (for the people were distressed), then the people hid themselves in caves, in thickets, in rocks, in tombs, and in pits. Now some of the Hebrews had gone over the Jordan to the land of Gad and Gilead; but as for Saul, he was yet in Gilgal, and all the people followed him trembling.” (1 Samuel 13:5-7 WEB) 1 Samuel 13:11 - Saul was a fleshly man who lived by sight. He offered up a sacrifice that he was not allowed to. Samuel should have been the one to do it. “Samuel said, “What have you done?” Saul said, “Because I saw that the people were scattered from me, and that you didn’t come within the days appointed, and that the Philistines assembled themselves together at Michmash;” (1 Samuel 13:11 WEB) 2 Corinthians 5:7 - We are to walk by faith, not by sight. “for we walk by faith, not by sight.” (2 Corinthians 5:7 WEB) 1 Samuel 13:14 - The flesh does not want to wait upon the Lord. “But now your kingdom will not continue. Yahweh has sought for himself a man after his own heart, and Yahweh has appointed him to be prince over his people, because you have not kept that which Yahweh commanded you.”” (1 Samuel 13:14 WEB) Exodus 14:13 - We are to stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, instead of acting upon the impulses of the flesh. “Moses said to the people, “Don’t be afraid. Stand still, and see the salvation of Yahweh, which he will work for you today: for the Egyptians whom you have seen today, you shall never see them again.” (Exodus 14:13 WEB) In leadership, we operate by the Lord’s leading, not to please the people. 1 Samuel 13:15-16 - The Philistines came so close to the capital of the territory of Benjamin, Gibeah where Saul ruled from. “Samuel arose, and went from Gilgal to Gibeah of Benjamin. Saul counted the people who were present with him, about six hundred men. Saul, and Jonathan his son, and the people who were present with them, stayed in Geba of Benjamin; but the Philistines encamped in Michmash.” (1 Samuel 13:15-16 WEB) 1 Samuel 13:17-18 - Some of the Israelites were fearful and defecting to the Philistines. A part of the body of Christ today have this mindset of expecting to be oppressed by the enemy instead of expecting the God-kind or overcoming victory. “The raiders came out of the camp of the Philistines in three companies: one company turned to the way that leads to Ophrah, to the land of Shual; another company turned the way to Beth Horon; and another company turned the way of the border that looks down on the valley of Zeboim toward the wilderness.” (1 Samuel 13:17-18 WEB) Zechariah 4:6 - We cannot fight the devil with his own fleshly weapons. It is only possible by the Holy Spirit. “Then he answered and spoke to me, saying, “This is Yahweh’s word to Zerubbabel, saying, ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by my Spirit,’ says Yahweh of Armies.” (Zechariah 4:6 WEB) 13 March 2022 - Four Pillars Of A Thriving Church - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught about the work of the Holy Spirit in the church, and how four important pillars that existed since the church was born empower us to flow with the will of God! Praise and Worship Song Performed: 1. For My Good - New Creation Worship 2. As The Deer - Martin Nystrom The church of Jesus Christ is God’s idea. When we gather we as a church, the Holy Spirit works with His manifold graces and diverse giftings to edify and minister to all. After the exile to Babylon, Jerusalem never reverted to idolatry again. Sometimes tough times teach us important lessons. Haggai 1:6, 9 - The Jews were suffering from lack because they neglected the house of God. “You have sown much, and bring in little. You eat, but you don’t have enough. You drink, but you aren’t filled with drink. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm, and he who earns wages earns wages to put them into a bag with holes in it.” “You looked for much, and, behold, it came to little; and when you brought it home, I blew it away. Why?” says Yahweh of Armies, “Because of my house that lies waste, while each of you is busy with his own house.” (Haggai 1:6, 9 WEB) Revelation 11:8-9 - This was impossible in the past such that people mocked it, but now with the Internet and satellite TV, this is made possible. “Their dead bodies will be in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified. From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.” (Revelation 11:8-9 WEB) 1 Corinthians 10:32 - When God looks down on earth, He only sees these three groups of people: Jew, Gentile, and the church of God. “Give no occasion for stumbling, either to Jews, or to Greeks, or to the assembly of God;” (1 Corinthians 10:32 WEB) Matthew 16:18 - The church is on the offense and making inroads. The gates of Hell are defensive. “I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it.” (Matthew 16:18 WEB) Matthew 18:20 - Two or three is the smallest plurality. When the Holy Spirit gathers believers together in Jesus’ name, that is the church. “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them.”” (Matthew 18:20 WEB) 1 Corinthians 12:27 - We are individual members of the body of Christ. “Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.” (1 Corinthians 12:27 WEB) Ephesians 5:30 - Jesus’ glorified body has flesh and bones. “because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones.” (Ephesians 5:30 WEB) 1 John 4:17 - Confess that you are one with Jesus. You have healthy flesh and bones just like Him. “In this love has been made perfect among us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so are we in this world.” (1 John 4:17 WEB) Colossians 4:14 - Luke is a beloved physician. “Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas greet you.” (Colossians 4:14 WEB) Luke 6:6 - Luke recorded details like this: he pointed out that it was the man’s right hand which was withered. “It also happened on another Sabbath that he entered into the synagogue and taught. There was a man there, and his right hand was withered.” (Luke 6:6 WEB) Luke 1:3 - Theophilus was likely a high-ranking Roman official. “it seemed good to me also, having traced the course of all things accurately from the first, to write to you in order, most excellent Theophilus;” (Luke 1:3 WEB) Acts 1:1 - Luke is also the author of the Book of Acts. The Gospel of Luke is about the thirty plus years of the life of Christ. Book of Acts is an account of the thirty plus years of church life in the body of Christ. “The first book I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,” (Acts 1:1 WEB) Luke 1:35 - The Holy Spirit was involved in the conception of Jesus in Mary’s womb. “The angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born from you will be called the Son of God.” (Luke 1:35 WEB) Galatians 4:4 - The fullness of the time here is talking about Jesus’ birth. “But when the fullness of the time came, God sent out his Son, born to a woman, born under the law,” (Galatians 4:4 WEB) Acts 2:1-2 - Luke is talking about the birth of the church here. The church is still growing today and it is winning. “Now when the day of Pentecost had come, they were all with one accord in one place. Suddenly there came from the sky a sound like the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.” (Acts 2:1-2 WEB) The way the Lord wants to bring His supply to you is primarily through the church. He wants you to be planted in a local church. Matthew 28:18-19 - When a traffic police lifts up his hand, it is not his own physical strength that stops an incoming truck, but the authority that is backing him. We have God-given authority in the name of Jesus. “Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,” (Matthew 28:18-19 WEB) Mark 16:20 - The Gospel of Mark portrays Jesus as strong to labor like an ox. Jesus is depicted as an untiring servant. In the first chapter, it opens with words like “immediately”, “at once”, and “suddenly”, indicating prompt service. “They went out, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen.” (Mark 16:20 WEB) God gave authority to Adam. What He gives He never takes back. Adam lost that authority when he obeyed Satan in sinning. God used a legal channel to reclaim the authority which was taken by Satan. He did this by sending Jesus to die at the cross to pay for all our sins. Acts 8:29 - It was the Holy Spirit who led Philip to meet the Ethiopian royal eunuch and evangelize to him. “The Spirit said to Philip, “Go near, and join yourself to this chariot.”” (Acts 8:29 WEB) Acts 13:2 - The Holy Spirit asked for Paul and Barnabbas to be separated for His purpose. “As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, “Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them.”” (Acts 13:2 WEB) Acts 16:7 - The Holy Spirit restrains us from making unfruitful choices. He helps us be at the right place at the right time. “When they had come opposite Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit didn’t allow them.” (Acts 16:7 WEB) 2 Thessalonians 2:6 - The Holy Spirit is found in the church. He is the one restraining the worst evil from happening on earth. This will change during the Tribulation after the Rapture happens. “Now you know what is restraining him, to the end that he may be revealed in his own season.” (2 Thessalonians 2:6 WEB) Matthew 5:13-14 - We have the Holy Spirit who makes us salt and light that purifies and cleanses. ““You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt has lost its flavor, with what will it be salted? It is then good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under the feet of men. You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill can’t be hidden.” (Matthew 5:13-14 WEB) The anointing of the Holy Spirit makes things effortlessly easy. It is like oil being added to the hinge of a creaking door. It is a flow that makes things prosper and effortlessly easy. Matthew 24:6 - The end is not yet. The Holy Spirit in us restrains the worst from happening. “You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren’t troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.” (Matthew 24:6 WEB) Acts 2:4 - The Holy Spirit empowered the disciples to speak in tongues. “They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other languages, as the Spirit gave them the ability to speak.” (Acts 2:4 WEB) Luke 2:52 - This is the last verse in Luke chapter 2. “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.” (Luke 2:52 WEB) Acts 2:47 - This is the last verse in Acts 2 which is a parallel to Luke 2:52. When God blesses the church, it grows in stature as well. “praising God, and having favor with all the people. The Lord added to the assembly day by day those who were being saved.” (Acts 2:47 WEB) 6 March 2022 - What To Do When The Glory Of Christ Is Attacked - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught that when the four horsemen of the Apocalypse launch attacks against local churches, behold Jesus in all of His aspects and God will arise with power as your Rearguard!

They have His essence in it, and they speak to us in a living way even today. “Every Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for instruction in righteousness,” (2 Timothy 3:16 WEB) The ‘revelations’ that the devil shows will always glorify oneself and never Jesus Christ. Ephesians 5:25 - Jesus gave Himself for the church. The church is the many-membered body of Christ, and it is the most successful, powerful organization in creation. “Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the assembly, and gave himself up for it;” (Ephesians 5:25 WEB) 1 Corinthians 12:10 - God has given us provisions in the body of Christ. The devil has clouded the word “church” such that people think of an old building, organ music, dull and dreary, but nothing can be further from the truth. God has poured out spiritual gifts to the church, and these gifts have never ceased. “and to another workings of miracles; and to another prophecy; and to another discerning of spirits; to another different kinds of languages; and to another the interpretation of languages.” (1 Corinthians 12:10 WEB) 1 Corinthians 13:9-10 - The complete/perfect has not yet come. We still need these gifts in operation today. “For we know in part, and we prophesy in part; but when that which is complete has come, then that which is partial will be done away with.” (1 Corinthians 13:9-10 WEB) Acts 4:33 - When great grace was upon the early church, they gave witness with great power.

Believe and cross over with Jesus to fulfill your divine assignment here on earth! Praise and Worship Song Performed: 1. To You - Darlene Zschech 2. Your Saving Grace - New Creation Worship 3 John 1:2 - John the apostle knew what God’s will is. The Hebrew word for “prosper” is “tsalach”. Prosperity in all things. “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers.” (3 John 1:2 WEB) Psalm 1:3 - Meditating on God’s word will cause us to prosper in all things and be healthy. “He will be like a tree planted by the streams of water, that produces its fruit in its season, whose leaf also does not wither. Whatever he does shall prosper.” (Psalms 1:3 WEB) John 17:17 - God sets us apart from this world’s uncleanness and disease through His word. We walk in this world but we are not of the world. “Sanctify them in your truth. Your word is truth.” (John 17:17 WEB) 1 Thessalonians 4:17 - It is one thing to be alive because you are young, and it is another thing to remain alive by God’s power working in you. “then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air. So we will be with the Lord forever.” (1 Thessalonians 4:17 WEB) Acts 12:24 - God’s word was taken away from the common man during the dark ages, but now it has been restored to us, thanks to those who gave their lives to make the Scriptures available to the people again. We have the Bible. “But the word of God grew and multiplied.” (Acts 12:24 WEB) Joshua 14:10-11 - There is no point for long life if you are not strong and healthy. Caleb was not exaggerating. At the age of eighty-five, he had the strength for war and he was victorious against the giants. ““Now, behold, Yahweh has kept me alive, as he spoke, these forty-five years, from the time that Yahweh spoke this word to Moses, while Israel walked in the wilderness. Now, behold, I am eighty-five years old, today. As yet I am as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me. As my strength was then, even so is my strength now for war, to go out and to come in.” (Joshua 14:10-11 WEB) Philippians 1:23-24 - Choose to live long so that you can complete your assignment here on earth. “But I am in a dilemma between the two, having the desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better. Yet, to remain in the flesh is more needful for your sake.” (Philippians 1:23-24 WEB) Psalm 116:8, 15 - It is very costly when one of God’s saints departs before his time because he is unable to continue ministering to others in the world with all the God-given gifts inside him. “For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling. Precious in Yahweh’s sight is the death of his saints.” (Psalms 116:8, 15 WEB) Job 5:26 - It is possible to die before one’s time. There are things you can do that prolong your age and things you do that shorten your lifespan. “You shall come to your grave in a full age, like a shock of grain comes in its season.” (Job 5:26 WEB) Proverbs 4:7-8 - Wisdom is personified as a woman with two hands. When you embrace God’s wisdom, she embraces you with her two hands. Solomon had the left hand, but not the right hand of wisdom (length of days). “Wisdom is supreme. Get wisdom. Yes, though it costs all your possessions, get understanding. Esteem her, and she will exalt you. She will bring you to honor, when you embrace her.” (Proverbs 4:7-8 WEB) 20 February 2022 - The Secret of Long Life And Youth Renewal - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught how in the end times, there will be a revelation for believers that causes us to remain young, strong, healthy, and full of life as we await the Rapture! Praise and Worship Song Performed: 1. My Abba - New Creation Worship 2. Pride Of A Father - Hillsong Music 1 Chronicles 12:32 - Today’s sermon is about understanding the times. “Of the children of Issachar, men who had understanding of the times, to know what Israel ought to do, their heads were two hundred; and all their brothers were at their command.” (1 Chronicles 12:32 WEB) Matthew 24:12 - We live in such a time. “Because iniquity will be multiplied, the love of many will grow cold.” (Matthew 24:12 WEB) Luke 18:8 - Man is creating things to meet their own needs, casting aside the basic and fundamental things of God. “I tell you that he will avenge them quickly. Nevertheless, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”(Luke 18:8 WEB) Romans 6:23 - There is no such thing as lying or stealing for the greater good. Sin is sin and it produces death. “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 6:23 WEB) 2 Timothy 3:1-3 - This is what many people are like these days. “But know this, that in the last days, grievous times will come. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, not lovers of good,” (2 Timothy 3:1-3 WEB) Proverbs 28:22 - Acceleration is God’s part. We do need not to try and accelerate our own blessings. Our part is to rest in Him and in Jesus’ finished work at the cross. “A man with an evil eye hastens after riches, And does not consider that poverty will come upon him.” (Proverbs 28:22 NKJV) Isaiah 53:4 - Jesus bore our sicknesses and diseases at the cross so that we can receive healing. “Surely he has borne our sickness, and carried our suffering; yet we considered him plagued, struck by God, and afflicted.” (Isaiah 53:4 WEB) Matthew 8:17 - Jesus paid for our physical healing, not just spiritual healing. “that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, “He took our infirmities, and bore our diseases.”” (Matthew 8:17 WEB) Genesis 26:18 - The devil is trying to cover up God’s truths so that believers remain defeated. “Isaac dug again the wells of water, which they had dug in the days of Abraham his father. For the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham. He called their names after the names by which his father had called them.” (Genesis 26:18 WEB) Amos 9:11 - God is repairing the breaches today. He is uncovering what the devil tried to cover up. “In that day I will raise up the tent of David who is fallen, and close up its breaches, and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old;” (Amos 9:11 WEB) Hebrew 10:19-20 - Now when we go to God, it is a new and living way. “Having therefore, brothers, boldness to enter into the holy place by the blood of Jesus, by the way which he dedicated for us, a new and living way, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;” (Hebrews 10:19-20 WEB) 23 January 2022 - Put Aleph Tav in the Center - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught that as we rest from human strength and let Jesus the Aleph Tav be in the center of every area of our lives, He will hold all these things together. We will see God’s abundant restoration and blessing in the breaches of our lives! Praise and Worship Song Performed: 1. Constant Companion - Bob Fitts 2. Never Walk Alone - Bethel Music 3. I Will Follow After You - New Creation Worship The Rapture will happen first, followed by the seven year Tribulation. At the end of the Tribulation, Jesus is going to come back and rule on the earth from Jerusalem. Psalm 22:16 - The prophets saw Jesus crucified before this method of execution was ever invented by the Romans. “For dogs have surrounded me. A company of evildoers have enclosed me. They have pierced my hands and feet.” (Psalms 22:16 WEB) Luke 4:19-20 - Jesus closed the book before the part about the day of vengeance. We are still in the acceptable year of the Lord. Jesus’ first coming was not to bring judgment, but salvation to all mankind. “and to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” He closed the book, gave it back to the attendant, and sat down. The eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on him.” (Luke 4:19-20 WEB) Isaiah 61:12 - The acceptable year of the Lord is long (it has been more than two thousand years since Jesus’ birth) whereas vengeance is short—just a day of vengeance (the seven year Tribulation). “To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, And the day of vengeance of our God; To comfort all who mourn,” (Isaiah 61:2 NKJV) Amos 9:11-12 - There is a divine hint about the blessing of Obed-Edom here. He was a Gittite (Gentile). When God restores the breaches of the Tabernacle of David, you will also experience family blessings. “In that day I will raise up the tent of David who is fallen, and close up its breaches, and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old; that they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations who are called by my name,” says Yahweh who does this.” (Amos 9:11-12 WEB) 1 Chronicles 13:11 - This is the place of breaking of man’s strength. “David was displeased, because Yahweh had broken out against Uzza. He called that place Perez Uzza, to this day.” (1 Chronicles 13:11 WEB) John 15:5 - Most people do not believe this statement. They believe they can do some things without Jesus. “I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5 WEB) Exodus 19:8 - Man presumed on his own strength to keep the Law. The next thing we see is the children of Israel making a golden calf and committing the sin of idolatry. The Law is like a mirror that reveals who you are. It reveals man’s sinfulness. When a person tries to keep the Law, his sin in the flesh rises up and shows that the man is a sinner. “All the people answered together, and said, “All that Yahweh has spoken we will do.” Moses reported the words of the people to Yahweh.” (Exodus 19:8 WEB) Romans 5:6 - Man has no strength of his own. “For while we were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.” (Romans 5:6 WEB) 16 January 2022 - The Secret of Obed-Edom’s Blessing - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught us why Obed-Edom was so abundantly blessed when the Ark of the Covenant was kept in his house.

We are to live one day at a time, being present in the now.

Behold, now is the day of salvation.” (2 Corinthians 6:2 WEB) John 11:21, 25 - Jesus is the “I Am”. He is a very present help in our time of need. “Therefore Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died. Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.” (John 11:21, 25 WEB) Deuteronomy 33:25 - As your age increases, your strength will also increase. This is the opposite of what the world and its experts believe. All of God’s promises are “Yes” and “Amen” for us in Christ. “Your bars will be iron and brass. As your days, so your strength will be.” (Deuteronomy 33:25 WEB) Luke 18:27 - When God says something, He wants us to believe it. “But he said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”” (Luke 18:27 WEB) Joshua 14:11 - Caleb was not lying or exaggerating. God kept him young and strong. “As yet I am as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me. As my strength was then, even so is my strength now for war, to go out and to come in.” (Joshua 14:11 WEB) Luke 1:38 - Zechariah doubted when the angel Gabriel brought a message to him. For his unbelief, he was made mute until the time of John’s birth. On the other hand, Mary believed the word of the Lord that came to her from Gabriel. “Let it be done to me according to your word” is basically saying “Amen”. “Mary said, “Behold, the servant of the Lord; let it be done to me according to your word.” The angel departed from her.” (Luke 1:38 WEB) Genesis 15:6 - The verse in Hebrew says that Abraham “amen” Yahweh (the Lord). We must say Amen to God’s word. “He believed in Yahweh, who credited it to him for righteousness.” (Genesis 15:6 WEB) Psalm 78:68 - God loves Mount Zion, not Mount Sinai. Mount Zion is where God chose as His resting place. “But chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion which he loved.” (Psalms 78:68 WEB) King Saul had no desire for the presence of Jesus (represented by the Ark of the Covenant), whereas David had a heart for the Ark. If you open and unfold the Ark, it forms the shape of a cross. There is a man at God the Father’s right hand. He is making intercession for us and He represents us before the Father. As He (Jesus) is, so are we in this world. 9 January 2022 - God Carries Your Heavy Burdens - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon Vision SundayNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught us how to bear Jesus up through exalting Him in our lives, and God will in turn carry us and our heavy burdens.

Magnificent - Hillsong Music This year, we will see the manifestation of things we have prayed for for a long time, and it will happen fast. Romans 12:2 - God’s word will renew our minds so that we don’t think like the world. The world is stressed out, chasing after things and unable to rest. “Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:2 WEB) 1 Corinthians 2:12 - What the people are pursuing with all their stress and laborious toil, we receive it freely from our God. “But we received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by God.” (1 Corinthians 2:12 WEB) Isaiah 48:17 - God will lead us in the way we should go this year and teach us to profit in all things. “Yahweh, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel says: “I am Yahweh your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way that you should go.” (Isaiah 48:17 WEB) Isaiah 30:21 - We will hear God’s voice and be led by Him. “and when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way.

He saw it, and was glad.”” (John 8:56 WEB) Psalm 22:1, 3- Jesus declared these words at the cross because He bore our sins there. Jesus always looks to bring glory to the Father. “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning? But you are holy, you who inhabit the praises of Israel.” (Psalms 22:1, 3 WEB) John 10:17 - Jesus was never more pleasing to the Father than when Jesus offered Himself up at the cross. “Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.” (John 10:17 WEB) All the holy requirements of the Law have been fully met at the cross by the shedding of Jesus’ blood. |
