28 March 2021 - Rest and Receive Healing - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesPastor Joseph Prince taught that the biggest mistake is to believe that healing is man’s work. It is the work of God, and the best way to receive it is by being restful. Not physical rest, but inward rest from trying to earn or deserve healing through works. Praise and Worship Songs Performed: 1. As He Is So Are We - New Creation Worship 2. Hope Of Glory - New Creation Worship 3. Praise the Lord For He is Good - New Creation Worship Chag Pesach Semeach means “Happy Passover Holiday!” 1 Corinthians 5:7b - Jesus is our true Passover Lamb. “Purge out the old yeast, that you may be a new lump, even as you are unleavened. For indeed Christ, our Passover, has been sacrificed in our place.” (1 Corinthians 5:7 WEB) John 1:29 - The natural Passover lamb only covered the sins of Israel for a year, but Jesus is the true payment that took away our sins. “The next day, he saw Jesus coming to him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!” (John 1:29 WEB) Genesis 22:7-8 - Just like God provided a lamb so that Isaac was spared, God provided Jesus so that we are spared from God’s judgment for sins. “Isaac spoke to Abraham his father, and said, “My father?” He said, “Here I am, my son.” He said, “Here is the fire and the wood, but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?” Abraham said, “God will provide himself the lamb for a burnt offering, my son.” So they both went together.” (Genesis 22:7-8 WEB) Psalm 105:37 - The children of Israel came out of Egypt with gold and silver, and none of them were feeble. This happened after they partook of the roasted Passover lamb. “He brought them out with silver and gold. There was not one feeble person among his tribes.” (Psalms 105:37 WEB) Hebrews 9:22 - No amount of good works are enough to atone for our sins. God’s righteousness demands a perfect sacrifice. Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins. “According to the law, nearly everything is cleansed with blood, and apart from shedding of blood there is no remission.” (Hebrews 9:22 WEB) John 3:16 - God loves the world with an everlasting love. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life.” (John 3:16 WEB) Psalm 23:6 - Don’t believe in the devil who hates you. Always doubt his words. Instead, trust God who always loves you. Expect God’s goodness and mercy to follow you 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) There is still sin in our flesh, but there is no sin on us in the eyes of God. God sees us as blameless and righteous in Christ Jesus. We received righteousness as a gift. For a believer, the holiness of God is on our side. Today, God’s holiness demands our acquittal and our blessing. He is righteous, and therefore He will surely count us as righteous.

14 March 2021 - Why We Can Always Rejoice - New Creation Church Sermon Notes - Pastor Lawrence Lim Sermon NotesPastor Lawrence Lim reminded us that regardless of our outward circumstances, we can always rejoice in the Lord. When we know that God loves us and that all our sins have been forgiven, we will rejoice! Praise and Worship Songs Performed: 1. Who You Say I Am - Hillsong Music 2. Supply - New Creation Worship Romans 10:14-15 - The New Testament is about good news for believers. Good news lights a hope in your heart. “How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? How will they believe in him whom they have not heard? How will they hear without a preacher? And how will they preach unless they are sent? As it is written: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the Good News of peace, who bring glad tidings of good things!”” (Romans 10:14-15 WEB) John 10:10-11 - God is always good and the devil is always bad. Jesus laid down His life so that we can truly enjoy life. “The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows). I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd risks and lays down His [own] life for the sheep. [Ps. 23.]” (John 10:10-11 AMPC) Return evil with good, not evil for evil. Matthew 7:11 - God gives good gifts to you when you ask for them. “If you then, being evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father who is in heaven give good things to those who ask him.” (Matthew 7:11 WEB) Philippians 4:4 - In the midst of having chains around his limbs and being in prison, the apostle Paul wrote to rejoice in the Lord always. Our joy is not found in outward circumstances—it is found in the Lord. The epistle to the Philippians is Paul’s “ode to joy”. “Rejoice in the Lord always! Again I will say, “Rejoice!”” (Philippians 4:4 WEB) Acts 16:25 - Paul and Silas were beaten with rods and thrown into an inner prison. Yet, the two of them were praying and singing hymns to God at midnight. Midnight speaks of the darkest moments of our lives. There is something to rejoice about now. Your circumstances may not be good, but your God is good. Stop looking to your circumstances to decide if you should rejoice or not. When we praise our good Father, He will turn around the situation for our good. “But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them.” (Acts 16:25 WEB) Philippians 3:13-14 - Forget the bad things that you have experienced. Close the chapter to your past hurts and let them go. “Brothers, I don’t regard myself as yet having taken hold, but one thing I do. Forgetting the things which are behind, and stretching forward to the things which are before, I press on toward the goal for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 3:13-14 WEB) Philippians 2:14 - Let’s not live life complaining. Start giving thanks for the blessings that you do have. Start giving thanks for the good things you see in your spouse. “Do all things without murmurings and disputes,” (Philippians 2:14 WEB) 7 March 2021 - Feast on Grace and Love - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesPastor Joseph Prince taught us how to prepare for the eventual end of the pandemic. There is a feast that God has prepared for His people, and when we eat, we win. The feast takes place on Mount Zion, the place that represents the New Covenant of Grace. Learn how to feast such that you experience victory over the enemy! Praise and Worship Songs Performed: 1. Mighty to Save - Hillsong Music 2. Letting Go - New Creation Worship 3. Turn Your Eyes Upon Jesus 4. Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone) - Chris Tomlin Hebrews 8:11-12 - We don’t need to know (in Greek: ginosko) the Lord by human effort because we know (in Greek: oida) Him intuitively from within. This is because God has forgiven us of all our sins and we have the Holy Spirit inside us. Believing the Gospel of Jesus Christ will not cause us to want to sin, but to live in true holiness. “They will not teach every man his fellow citizen, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for all will know me, from their least to their greatest. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness. I will remember their sins and lawless deeds no more.”” (Hebrews 8:11-12 WEB) Hebrews 8:10 - When God says He will be your God, it denotes the miraculous. He will provide for all your needs. ““For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel. After those days,” says the Lord; “I will put my laws into their mind, I will also write them on their heart. I will be their God, and they will be my people.” (Hebrews 8:10 WEB) Job 11:6 - Wisdom has two sides. Scriptures have a literal meaning and a prophetic meaning. “that he would show you the secrets of wisdom! For true wisdom has two sides. Know therefore that God exacts of you less than your iniquity deserves.” (Job 11:6 WEB) Isaiah 25:6-8 - Mount Sinai is a picture of the Law while Mount Zion is a picture of Grace. The word translated as “veil” in the passage is “massekah” in Hebrew which shares origins with the Arabic word “mascara”—similar to “mask”. Both Hebrew and Arabic share Semitic roots. There has never been a time like ours whereby people from all nations are wearing masks. The practice of wearing masks will be destroyed—the end of the pandemic. “He will swallow up death forever” refers to the Rapture. After the pandemic ends, the Rapture will happen. Before the mask-wearing practice is destroyed, there will be a feast. The title “Yahweh of Armies” denotes warfare. There is a war against God’s enemies. We win the war by eating. The word translated as “marrow” is usually translated as “exterminate, blot out, wiping out” elsewhere. The marrow is responsible for our immune system—the wiping out of germs. When you feast, your body will be free from diseases. All these happen “in this mountain” (Zion). We must be established in the New Covenant of Grace. “In this mountain, Yahweh of Armies will make all peoples a feast of choice meat, a feast of choice wines, of choice meat full of marrow, of well refined choice wines. He will destroy in this mountain the surface of the covering that covers all peoples, and the veil that is spread over all nations. He has swallowed up death forever! The Lord Yahweh will wipe away tears from off all faces. He will take the reproach of his people away from off all the earth, for Yahweh has spoken it.” (Isaiah 25:6-8 WEB) Matthew 15:29-31 - When you feast on the “choice meat full of marrow”, you will experience healing like this. You will also experience the blotting out of everything bad that came as a result of the fall of man. “Jesus departed there, and came near to the sea of Galilee; and he went up into the mountain, and sat there. Great multitudes came to him, having with them the lame, blind, mute, maimed, and many others, and they put them down at his feet. He healed them, so that the multitude wondered when they saw the mute speaking, the injured healed, the lame walking, and the blind seeing—and they glorified the God of Israel.” (Matthew 15:29-31 WEB) Luke 14:23 - The highways are like pictures of cities, and hedges are prophetic of our current times where we are hedged up from each other. There are firewalls to protect information, and also things like the Iron Curtain (Russia) and the Bamboo Curtain (China). This is the final assignment entrusted to the servant—a picture of the final generation before the Lord establishes His physical kingdom here on earth. The last field is “hedges”. Let us compel people to come into His kingdom. ““The lord said to the servant, ‘Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.” (Luke 14:23 WEB) |
