27 Dec 2015 - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes Online - New Creation Church Sermon Notes Online - About the Rapture and the Blessed Hope of the Bible!Titus 2:11-13 - Grace will teach us! The world doesn't have something to look forward to, but believers do! Jesus will come back for us bodily, not just spiritually. Be careful not to over-spiritualise the Bible. “For the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ,” (Titus 2:11-13 NKJV) You can't be under grace and not be holy, just like how you can't be under water and not be wet! Philippians 3:20-21 - Hope is always talking about the future. The Bible hope is Jesus coming back for us. That is the blessed hope! When Jesus rose from the dead, He is the same Jesus. He is fully-Man. He is 100% God and 100% Man! Our current bodies are lowly. Our bodies do things that we are embarrassed about. Our current bodies cannot enter heaven - they cannot take it. God has to give us new bodies. “For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself.” (Philippians 3:20-21 NKJV) When Jesus overturned the tables of the merchants at the temple, He called the temple "My Father's house". Later Jesus said with regards to the temple: "Your house is left to you desolate". This is because God's presence had already departed from the temple. When God departed from the temple, it was doomed for destruction. Matthew 24:2 - In AD 70, the son of the Emperor of Rome, General Titus, said "Don't destroy the temple" (On the Temple Mount in Jerusalem). Jesus the Son of God said "not one stone shall be left here upon another that shall not be thrown down". The temple was on fire, causing the gold on the top of the temple to melt, flowing down in between the stones, and the Roman soldiers broke the stones to get the gold. Jesus' words came to pass. Not one stone was left upon another. God's words always come to pass. "And Jesus said to them, "Do you not see all these things? Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down."" (Matthew 24:2, NKJV) Occupy yourself with business as if Jesus isn't coming back for 1000 years, but live as though Jesus is coming back today! 17 books of the Old Testament and 23 books of the New Testament talks about the Second Coming of Christ, and yet today many of the churches are not preaching about it. That is why many believers are being robbed of the blessings that they are accrued. God renews our youth like the eagles! He did not create man to grow old and die. God hates death! Growth comes from making choices. But when you make a choice, you cannot choose a different outcome. Believing in Jesus is not a religion, it is a reality!

20 Dec 2015 - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes Online - New Creation Church Sermon Notes Online (Christmas Service 2015) - The Saving Blood of Jesus!Jesus is the Reason why we gather and celebrate Christmas! Time feels like it's accelerating. We need to make our mark for Jesus while we still can. Things are already bad in the world, but it will continue to get worse. Jesus said in the world you will have trouble. The whole world's focus will be on Israel. The nation of Israel is testimony that God is alive! Israel is surrounded by many enemies, but God has preserved it. Jesus was born from two lineages of King David. He has a double-claim to the throne of David! "Harpadzo" - a Greek word that means "a snatching away". In the Jewish culture, the groom will decide a time to snatch the bride away to his home. Jesus will come to snatch us away, to be with Him, during the Rapture. Grace is something that the world cannot understand. The world thinks that Christianity is a religion where you have to climb to a level where you will be good enough to enter heaven. No, Jesus came down to where we are and saved us. When Jesus was born, one of His names is "Immanuel" which means "God with us". Luke 2:7-11 - Mary was probably about 14-15 years old when pregnant with Jesus. She took a 75 mile journey to Bethlehem. Mary had no help when giving birth except for Joseph. It does not say that there was no room in the inn - it says that there was no room FOR THEM in the inn - there was no room for Jesus. Man's heart rebelled against God even though God loves man. “And she brought forth her firstborn Son, and wrapped Him in swaddling cloths, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the inn. Now there were in the same country shepherds living out in the fields, keeping watch over their flock by night. And behold, an angel of the Lord stood before them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were greatly afraid. Then the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid, for behold, I bring you good tidings of great joy which will be to all people. For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” (Luke 2:7-11 NKJV) Jeremiah 41:17 - The inn belongs to the royal family of David, and therefore Jesus should rightfully be allowed to stay in the inn. “And they departed and dwelt in the habitation of Chimham, which is near Bethlehem, as they went on their way to Egypt,” (Jeremiah 41:17 NKJV) When God made man, He called man "blood man" - "Adam". Jesus had to have a body with blood in it. Your spirit cannot die. It will be housed for eternity either in heaven or hell. Hell was never made for man, but if you slap God's hand away and refuse His help, then you have chosen your destiny. The reason God sent His Son is to save us. When we look at prostitutes and drug peddlers, we think it's a big sin. They are committing big sins. But in actual fact, one sin itself is enough to send us to hell. All of us have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. If we are all sinners, then we all qualify to be saved by the Savior, Jesus! 13 Dec 2015 - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes Online - New Creation Church Sermon Notes Online - Experience God's Four Times Protective Covering!Pastor Joseph Prince shared this Testimony: This gentleman from Canada stumbled upon pornography at 14 years old. He went for promiscuous live shows and participated in other sexual sinful activities. He struggled with sexual sin for many long years. He ended up divorcing his wife. He kept seeing Pastor Joseph Prince on TV, books in the mall, and finally he decided to check out his teachings. The teaching that we are the righteousness of God has totally changed him. Whenever he felt like he needed sex to cover his pain like a band-aid, he would just declare that he is the righteousness of God in Christ! He is now totally free from sexual addictions. Praise Jesus! Pastor Prince invited us to say this together with him: There is sin in me, but there is no sin on me in God's eyes. When God looks at me He doesn't see sin on me. There is no sin in Jesus. But at the cross, there was sin on Him. Under the Old Covenant, the priest examines the sacrificial lamb that a person brings as a sin offering, for blemishes. If there are no blemishes, the offerer lays his hand on the lamb and the sins of the offerer are transferred to the lamb. Conversely, the righteousness of the lamb is transferred to the offerer. Then the lamb is slain. The offerer then walks away righteous! Jesus is our sin offering. The sin offering is most holy. Jesus' death for us at the cross is most holy! We are living in perilous times. People are afraid to fly, to travel, they are even afraid of where they are staying in. Fear has caught the world. But God is not caught by surprise. Believers are in the world but not of the world. We are covered by God! There are four coverings that cover the tabernacle: Badger skin, ram skins, goat's hair, fine linen. We are covered. We are four times covered! In the Bible, "silver" represents redemption. Silver speaks of the blood of Jesus. We were bought by the blood of Christ! The standing boards of the tabernacle are made from acacia wood. God has transformed us from acacia trees into standing boards fixed in silver sockets. Our feet no longer touch this cursed earth - we are fixed upon a solid silver foundation (represents the blood of Jesus Christ that redeemed us). Our resources come from heaven, not from this cursed earth. The wooden boards are overlaid with gold. When God looks at us, He doesn't see the wood, He sees the gold! God sees the inwards whereas man sees the outward. As believers, God sees us as the righteousness of God in Christ. The more of God's glory you have inside you, the more radiant you will look on the outside. The place of protection is inside the tabernacle. When you pray don't pray as if God is so far away in heaven. A whisper is a more powerful way to pray and is more in line with New Covenant truths. As believers, we are always in the Holy of Holies. God has made for us a new and living way! The more we come to God, the healthier we will become. We are already complete in Christ. We are seated in heaven at the right hand of Jesus. We begin our journey as believers already complete in Christ, not walking towards completeness. Exodus 26:1-2 - The curtains of the tabernacle is colored blue, purple, scarlet, and white (fine linen). These colors represent the four gospels (Blue - John, Luke - scarlet, Matthew - purple, Mark - white) Blue - sky (representing heaven and divinity). Purple (a result of blue and scarlet mixing) - God and man mixed - royalty. Scarlet - blood ("Adam" means "red man" - because of the blood inside him). White - in Him is no sin, He knew no sin and He did no sin. ““Moreover you shall make the tabernacle with ten curtains of fine woven linen and blue, purple, and scarlet thread; with artistic designs of cherubim you shall weave them. The length of each curtain shall be twenty-eight cubits, and the width of each curtain four cubits. And every one of the curtains shall have the same measurements.” (Exodus 26:1-2 NKJV) Psalms 91:4 - Psalms 91 was written after the tabernacle was inaugurated. Under His wings - The writer of Psalms 91 is referring to the wings of the cherubim on the ceiling curtains of the tabernacle. As believers, we are always inside the tabernacle, covered by God. “He shall cover you with His feathers, And under His wings you shall take refuge; His truth shall be your shield and buckler.” (Psalms 91:4 NKJV) 6 Dec 2015 - Rev. Col Stringer Sermon Notes Online - New Creation Church Sermon Notes Online - Receive Rest And Refreshing Through Praying In Tongues!
I Corinthians 14:4 - Research shows that when people pray in tongues, the language is coming from somewhere beyond the brain! Research also show that when you pray in tongues, in affects your body, even showing to lower blood pressure and boost immune system! “He who speaks in a tongue edifies himself, but he who prophesies edifies the church.” (I Corinthians 14:4 NKJV) Genesis 11:1-6 - Because the people are all of the same mind, same language, they were able to do anything that they wanted. Unless God confounded their language, they would be able to do anything that they wanted. “Now the whole earth had one language and one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar, and they dwelt there. Then they said to one another, “Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly.” They had brick for stone, and they had asphalt for mortar. And they said, “Come, let us build ourselves a city, and a tower whose top is in the heavens; let us make a name for ourselves, lest we be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth.” But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower which the sons of men had built. And the LORD said, “Indeed the people are one and they all have one language, and this is what they begin to do; now nothing that they propose to do will be withheld from them.” (Genesis 11:1-6 NKJV) Zephaniah 3:9 - God says He will restore and not create the language! This language is the prayer language of the heavenly tongues. ““For then I will restore to the peoples a pure language, That they all may call on the name of the LORD, To serve Him with one accord.” (Zephaniah 3:9 NKJV) When the Holy Spirit came on Pentecost, the disciples were all of one accord, speaking in tongues! The first miracle the Holy Spirit ever did when He came on Pentecost was to touch the people's tongues. When we communicate in tongues, we communicate directly with the God of creation! Isaiah 28:11-12 - Praying in tongues produces rest in our bodies. The word "disease" is "dis-ease" when split up. The word "hypertension" is "hyper-tension" when split up. Diseases are caused by excessive stress. “For with stammering lips and another tongue He will speak to this people, To whom He said, “This is the rest with which You may cause the weary to rest,” And, “This is the refreshing”; Yet they would not hear.” (Isaiah 28:11-12 NKJV) Psalms 46:10 - The knowing of God comes after you be still. “Be still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!” (Psalms 46:10 NKJV) Rev. Col Stringer testifies that when he prays in tongues, he notices that his breathing becomes heavier, that his creativity is boosted. When he had high blood pressure and the hospital wanted to treat him, he refused treatment and instead went home to pray in tongues. The next week at his medical checkup, the doctors found that his blood pressure dropped by 20 points! Matthew 11:28-29 - Jesus said that if you would just come to Him, you will receive rest. It doesn't even say you need to pray or ask for it. When you pray in tongues, you communicate directly with God. That's how you can come to Jesus. “Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.” (Matthew 11:28-29 NKJV) ![]()
Rev. Col Stringer ministers with a powerful anointing and is in great demand to speak at churches and conventions all over the world. Col's unique background of wildlife and humor have won for him the title of "Pastor Crocodile Dundee". He is also a successful author of 20 Christian books. His book ‘On Eagles Wings’ has become an international best seller and has been endorsed by Joyce Meyer, Kenneth Hagin Jr, Jerry Savelle, Jesse Duplantis, and Kenneth Copeland. His book '800 Horsemen' has also been a best seller.
If you can't sleep at night, pray in tongues! It will help you to rest and go to sleep. If you don't deal with the pressures of life, it will deal with you. Acts 3:19 - Repent means to have a radical change of your mind - the way that you think. Get your eyes off of yourself and focus on the Lord. “Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord,” (Acts 3:19 NKJV) Many people feel embarrassed to pray in tongues, but it should be natural for us - it's simply speaking to God! II Timothy 1:6-7 - The only spiritual gift of the Holy Spirit that you can turn on and off at will, is praying in tongues (also referred to as praying in the Holy Spirit). “Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands. For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.” (II Timothy 1:6-7 NKJV) When Rev. Col Stringer woke up one morning and found the wall of his house knocked down, he went to pray in tongues, and God told him that the garbage man did it. After pursuing the matter, he went to the company to check the garbage man's truck, and sure enough, the truck had the paint of his house wall on it, showing that it was indeed the garbage man that knocked down his wall! That day, Rev. Col Stringer realized that he could access the wisdom of God by praying in tongues! The devil attacks the gift of praying in tongues so much because it can allow one to access the wisdom of God. The devil will tell you that you're making it up when you try to pray in tongues, but don't believe him! Praying in tongues will bring rest and times of refreshing for you!
