3 January 2021 - The Year of Hazon Vision - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Theme of the YearPastor Joseph Prince released the theme of year 2021: It is "The Year of Hazon Vision"! Through receiving prophetic visions that cause faith to spring up, you will bring forth good things in your life this year and have many beautiful days! What are you seeing in your heart? These visions will be reproduced in your life, so ask the Lord to show you what you need to know! Praise and Worship songs performed: 1. Give Me This Mountain - New Creation Worship 2. As He Is So Are We 3. Agnus Dei - Michael W. Smith Isaiah 43:19 - God has new and unprecedented things in store for you this year. “Behold, I will do a new thing. It springs out now. Don’t you know it? I will even make a way in the wilderness, and rivers in the desert.” (Isaiah 43:19 WEB) Lots of changes and transitions are happening for God’s people this year, and it is going to be good. The theme of the year last year was “The Year of Time and Space”. It doesn’t mean that it is now over. The themes add on. God works with times and seasons. He also works with days, months and years, even though He lives outside time. Ephesian 5:15-16 - We can redeem the time. “Therefore watch carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise; redeeming the time, because the days are evil.” (Ephesians 5:15-16 WEB) Joel 2:25 - God can restore the years to us. “I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, the great locust, the grasshopper, and the caterpillar, my great army, which I sent among you.” (Joel 2:25 WEB) Acts 9:43 - Joppa means “beautiful”. The name “Simon” means “to hear”, and there are two Simons in this verse. When it is doubled, it means “to harken diligently”. God revealed to Pastor Prince that we would have many beautiful days this year if we harken diligently to God’s word. “He stayed many days in Joppa with a tanner named Simon.” (Acts 9:43 WEB) Deuteronomy 28:2 - Harken to God’s word and all of God’s blessings will come upon you. “And all these blessings shall come on thee, and overtake thee, if thou shalt hearken unto the voice of the Lord thy God.” (Deuteronomy 28:2 KJV) The Bible is full of types—people, events and things that represent New Covenant truths. The woman with the issue of blood is a picture of the church. The woman was bleeding, but when she touched Jesus by faith, she was healed. Deuteronomy 2:14 - The impotent man at the Pool of Bethesda which Jesus healed is a picture of Israel. He had been impotent for 38 years, like the children of Israel who wandered for 38 years in the wilderness. “The days in which we came from Kadesh Barnea, until we had come over the brook Zered, were thirty-eight years; until all the generation of the men of war were consumed from the middle of the camp, as Yahweh swore to them.” (Deuteronomy 2:14 WEB) The apostle Paul was on a ship voyage that ended up shipwrecked. The people on the ship did not listen to Paul and that is why they were shipwrecked. At the end, they did listen to him and they reached the land of Malta (meaning “honey”). This is a picture of how the church suffers shipwreck if it doesn’t listen to the Pauline revelation of Grace. But every believer will reach the promised land flowing with milk and honey. Acts 10:1 - This verse is related to the times we are in. The word “Caesarea” means “severed”. It is very interesting that all the centurions in the Bible are portrayed in a positive light. The name Cornelius means “that which pertains to the Horn or the Crown”. The name Cornelius is related to the word corona which also means “crown”. The COVID-19 virus is called “coronavirus” because it has horn-like projections, forming the likeness of a crown. Cornelius does not represent the coronavirus, but his name identifies that the story is prophetically speaking about the times we are in now. “Now there was a certain man in Caesarea, Cornelius by name, a centurion of what was called the Italian Regiment,” (Acts 10:1 WEB) 1 Samuel 2:10 - The word “horn” (in Hebrew: ceren) is a picture of kingly power and authority. “Those who strive with Yahweh shall be broken to pieces. He will thunder against them in the sky. “Yahweh will judge the ends of the earth. He will give strength to his king, and exalt the horn of his anointed.”” (1 Samuel 2:10 WEB) Ephesians 6:13 - “Evil day” is singular. There will be evil days but they will be few in comparison to the beautiful days that we will have. “Therefore put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and, having done all, to stand.” (Ephesians 6:13 WEB) 1 Peter 3:10 - God’s word promises that we can have good days in this lifetime. It is not evil to pray for that. “For, “He who would love life, and see good days, let him keep his tongue from evil, and his lips from speaking deceit.” (1 Peter 3:10 WEB) Job 36:11 - Elihu is a type of Christ in this story. If you listen to God, you can enjoy years filled with God’s prosperity and pleasures. “If they listen and serve him, they shall spend their days in prosperity, and their years in pleasures.” (Job 36:11 WEB) Psalm 23:6 - The word translated as “follow” actually has an intensity that means “to hunt down or pursue”. God’s goodness and mercy will hunt you down all the days of your life. “Surely goodness and loving kindness shall follow me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in Yahweh’s house forever.” (Psalms 23:6 WEB) 1 Samuel 3:1-4 - It is a sad thing when visions (in Hebrew: hazon) from the Lord were rare at the time. “The child Samuel ministered to Yahweh before Eli. Yahweh’s word was precious in those days. There visions were not frequent. At that time, when Eli was laid down in his place (now his eyes had begun to grow dim, so that he could not see), and God’s lamp hadn’t yet gone out, and Samuel had laid down in Yahweh’s temple, where God’s ark was; Yahweh called Samuel; and he said, “Here I am.”” (1 Samuel 3:1-4 WEB) Proverb 29:18 - The word translated as “revelation” is also hazon in Hebrew, meaning vision (from the Lord). “Where there is no revelation, the people cast off restraint; But happy is he who keeps the law.” (Proverbs 29:18a NKJV) Genesis 15:1-2 - When the Lord gives you a word, it often comes in a vision form. That vision will affect your heart and cause faith to spring forth. Abram was seeing a vision of “childlessness”. The devil robs your vision before he robs you. “After these things Yahweh’s word came to Abram in a vision, saying, “Don’t be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.” Abram said, “Lord Yahweh, what will you give me, since I go childless, and he who will inherit my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?”” (Genesis 15:1-2 WEB) Psalm 1:3 - How does the Lord show you that you are blessed? He shows you a vision—faith images. “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) Luke 6:45 - The image (vision) in your heart is what you will speak. “The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil, for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.” (Luke 6:45 WEB) This year is “The Year of Hazon Vision”. Not just any vision, but prophetic visions from God. Genesis 13:14 - The name of Abraham’s nephew, Lot, means “veil”. When Lot left, then God spoke to Abram, saying that all that he sees, he will receive. “Yahweh said to Abram, after Lot was separated from him, “Now, lift up your eyes, and look from the place where you are, northward and southward and eastward and westward,” (Genesis 13:14 WEB) Proverbs 4:23 - Guard your heart for the forces of life proceed from it. “Keep your heart with all diligence, for out of it is the wellspring of life.” (Proverbs 4:23 WEB)
