​18 November 2018 - Jesus Perfects our Imperfect Prayers - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon Notes

Jesus removes the unnecessary parts from our prayers that go up to God, and adds His own fragrance to beautify the prayer. Then Jesus presents the perfected prayer to the Heavenly Father. It’s always through Him and in Him that we offer our prayers to God.
Jesus removes the unnecessary parts from our prayers that go up to God, and adds His own fragrance to beautify the prayer. Then Jesus presents the perfected prayer to the Heavenly Father. It’s always through Him and in Him that we offer our prayers to God.

Praise and Worship songs performed:
  1. Sons and Daughters - New Creation Worship 
  2. Only You - New Creation Worship 
  3. Give Me Jesus - Jeremy Camp
  4. I Want to Sing - Malcolm Du Plessis
  5. Oh The Glory of Your Presence - Ron Kenoly

You don’t have to wait for God to move in a special way like the nine gifts of the Holy Spirit. 
A sermon isn’t a motivational speech. As the word goes forth, God delivers, saves and fights your battles.
The glory of the Lord is your rear guard. He protects you from the back.
The armor of God is protection for the front. 
You’re not to look back - Remember Lot’s wife. 

God makes the crooked places straight. 
John the Baptist quoted the words of Isaiah, saying make straight paths for the Lord. 
Every mountain (representing proud Jerusalem) shall be brought low and every valley (representing humble Galilee) shall be raised. 
Before Jesus comes again, the voice of John the Baptist will cry out again. 
John means “Grace”. The voice of grace cries out before the Rapture will happen. 

The Rapture is referred to as the “catching away” - “harpazo” in Greek. In the twinkling of an eye, we will be transformed and receive incorruptible bodies. 

The Bible says that we are not appointed to wrath. The Rapture is God’s way of removing God’s people from earth before He pours out His wrath on the unbelieving world during the Great Tribulation.

When the devil points you to yourself, look at Jesus instead


​Luke 4:17-22 - In Hebrew, the word “acceptable” is ratzon. 
Grace always gives. Law demands. You can tell you’re effectively under Law when you feel like things are being demanded from you.
If you wake up and feel like God is supplying you, and providing for you, you are effectively living under Grace. 
When the Law was given, 3000 died at Mount Sinai. When the Holy Spirit was given on the Day of Pentecost, 3000 people were saved. 
Jesus went about healing all, as if He didn’t see their sins. God wasn’t imputing their sins to them. 
The sinners drew near to Jesus. The Pharisees’ sins were less visible. It was the sin of pride. 
We must close the book where Jesus closed the book.
We are still in the dispensation of Grace and not the Day of Vengeance. 
The dispensation of the Law lasted 1500 years. the dispensation of Grace has already lasted 2000 over years.
Methuselah means "when he dies, it will come". What will come? The flood during Noah’s time that destroyed all life on earth except for Noah, his family and the animals in the ark. 
God made Methuselah the longest-living man because He didn’t want to judge man, but He has to as a righteous God. He is patient and doesn’t delight in the death of the wicked. He loves mercy. 
God forgives us righteously today because all our sins were paid for at the cross. 


“The book of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. He opened the book, and found the place where it was written, “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to heal the broken hearted, to proclaim release to the captives, recovering of sight to the blind, to deliver those who are crushed, 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. He began to tell them, “Today, this Scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” All testified about him, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth, and they said, “Isn’t this Joseph’s son?”” (Luke 4:17-22 WEB)


​There are degrees of sin. Jesus said that the one who delivered Him to Pontius Pilate has the greater sin. If there is a greater sin, there is a lesser sin. 
Jesus said that Capernaum would be brought down to the lowest hell. Many of Jesus’ miracles were seen in Capernaum, and they still rejected Jesus. 
Jesus said if the mighty works were done in Sodom instead of Capernaum, Sodom would still be remaining today. Sodom would have repented. 
The sin of rejecting Jesus, the Person of Grace, is worse than the sin of sodomy. 
The solution for the dying world is to do mighty works like Jesus did in Capernaum. 
Pray for people to be healed instead of judging them. 
This world is getting darker and darker. Moral depravity abounds. The darkness actually accentuates any light that you have.  


Romans 5:19 - Obedience of faith is right believing.
We are made righteous because of Jesus' obedience at the cross. 
At the cross, the Law received like never before the righteous demands that it required. The cross exalts the Law. 
Satan has nothing to say about the cross. He can’t refute its validity. He never expected it. 


“For as through the one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, even so through the obedience of the one, many will be made righteous.” (Romans 5:19 WEB)

II Corinthians 10:4-5 - The paramount purpose of the devil is to point you to yourself. 
Your answer to warfare is to point yourself to Jesus. 
The obedience of Christ is referring to Jesus’ obedience.
New Living Translation of the Bible translates this as “bringing every thought to obey Christ”. It is a very bad, inaccurate translation. There is no way you can bring every thought to obey Christ. 
Most translations agree that the verse is talking about Jesus’ obedience, not ours. 
Right believing always produces right living. 
Strong faith is about looking to Jesus. Jesus is the Author and Completer of our faith. 
The Scriptures testify of Jesus. Faith comes from hearing the word of Christ.  
In a relationship, don’t keep calling your boyfriend/girlfriend. It kills all the romance and transitions to your own works. 


“for the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh, but mighty before God to the throwing down of strongholds, throwing down imaginations and every high thing that is exalted against the knowledge of God, and bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ;” (2 Corinthians 10:4-5 WEB)

Sandcastles Don't Last Forever

$7.99

This is the eBook version.


If you prefer to get the Paperback version (physical copy), you can get it on Amazon here for US$15.



About the Book:

​

One day when I was singing praises to God, an image floated up in my spirit: a big and beautiful sandcastle being washed away by the waves from the sea. God was teaching me the futility of holding tightly onto worldly possessions because like the sandcastle, they won't last, and one day will cease to exist.


He taught me from His word to focus on Him and by doing so, I would reap great eternal rewards before Jesus' throne at the start of the Millennium. These rewards will last forever and can't be destroyed or stolen. 


It is my prayer that the revelations in this book will help you to live with a focus on the things above where God is, fulfill your God-given calling in life, be happier and to accumulate more eternal rewards to your account.



In this Book, you will learn about:​


- Heavenly investment advice and the futility of worldly pursuits from a trillionaire in the Bible

- Why God has to reward us in order to be righteous

- When and how God will destroy the current earth and sky to make way for new ones

- The types of fireproof works that earn eternal rewards at the end of time

- The abundant rewards of doing good works while abiding by the non-disclosure agreement between God and you

- The difference between the temporary places of torment: Sheol and Abaddon

- Who is the Antichrist and his name revealed in the Bible

- What is the Mark of the Beast and why it disqualifies its recipients from receiving salvation

- The different judgments at the throne of Jesus Christ and what it means for you as a believer

- How to fulfill your calling and maximize your gifts to receive the best eternal rewards 



Testimonials about the contents of this book:


"Sandcastles Don't Last Forever is very well written, its message loud and clear. Milton Goh gives common-sense insight on often confusing Scripture, which is much appreciated in these troubled times. My understanding of the Bible has definitely improved."

- Mike Garrett, first Editor/ Publisher for Stephen King and Author of Christian Novel "Innocence Denied", from USA


"This book is absolutely breathtaking. We don't work to be saved but were created to do good works. I am so energized and excited to know God values our works and we will be rewarded. This is all Glory to Jesus... I cant wait to throw my crowns at his feet and thank him for saving my life!" - Evangelist Michael Clark from USA


"Dear Milton Goh, I truly thank our Abba, Father for the revelations in this book. It is so amazing how I begin to discover important verses in the Bible that I have never read. That instead of following riches, with sleepless nights, and actually shortening our lives, we are just to 'Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ', and 'Love one another'. How beautiful to find out that actually in the Bible there is both 'Earthly or Worldly Investment Wisdom' and 'Eternal Investment Wisdom' according to the revelations here from Ecclesiastes 5:14-17 WEB)!; “It seems like Solomon was not only wise at earning material riches but also at earning eternal riches.” All the glory to our Lord Jesus Christ! God bless you Milton Goh for such a wonderful book!" - Nitta Nierra from Belgium


“Thank you Milton. I have just finished reading “Sandcastles Don’t Last Forever”. It’s such a good book that's filled with God's word. I love it very much. Might read again if I have the time. Thanks so much!” - Mally Chai from Singapore


"I'm reading this book and loving it! The revelations of the Gospel truth shared and it's life applications are absolutely amazing! I give glory to the Lord Jesus for my dear brother Milton for this exceptional resource. I'm gonna keep feeding on its contents and believe God for supernatural breakthroughs as my mind is renewed in Christ!" - Terence from Tombel, Cameroon 

​

“Excellent book!! I enjoyed reading it so much and definitely recommend it! Milton is so gifted and all his teachings have blessed me tremendously! I thank God for people like him. Get this book, it will be worth it!” - Madeleine from SA, “Unmerited Favor” tier patron

Our High Priest perfects our imperfect gifts


Colossians 2:10 - We need to know that we are complete in Jesus. Man’s tendency is to try to become complete in himself. For example, thinking that one has to be more fervency or passion in prayer before his prayer will be answered.
No, look at Jesus and see that you are already completed in Him. 


“and in him you are made full, who is the head of all principality and power;” (Colossians 2:10 WEB)

Philippians 3:9 - Be found in Jesus. When people point you to you, they are motivated by the devil. 
In and of yourself, you are still not perfect yet, even though you are cleansed by the blood of Jesus. Don’t try to find some righteousness in yourself for God to bless. You are already righteous in Jesus. 


“and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own, that which is of the law, but that which is through faith in Christ, the righteousness which is from God by faith; that I may know him, and the power of his resurrection, and the fellowship of his sufferings, becoming conformed to his death;” (Philippians 3:9-10 WEB)

Hebrews 9:24 - Jesus cannot sit down at the Father’s right hand if the sin issue wasn’t dealt with.
Jesus has the right to sit down (to rule) because He has paid the price for our sins. 
Jesus isn’t sitting down all the time. To “sit down” means to be reigning. Like how Queen Victoria of England sits on her throne, but it doesn’t mean that she’s permanent glued to her throne. 
God doesn’t look at us to judge our righteousness but He looks at our high priest. Jesus is our High Priest forever.
The High Priest garments is extrinsic, to represent what is intrinsic of Jesus. 
The jewels on the breastplate of the High Priest are different. Our beauty is unique before God. He sees our individual beauties. 
The breastplate is strapped to the shoulders of the High Priest. The breast represents love and the shoulders represents strength.
Jesus bears us on His shoulders (His strength and power). 
Repentance is about consenting for Jesus to carry you on His shoulders.
The prodigal son came back home motivated by his stomach. He rehearsed a speech to ask his father to make him like one of the hired servants but the father stopped him. You can’t earn the lavish love and blessings of God. You can only receive it as a gift. That’s true repentance. 


“For Christ hasn’t entered into holy places made with hands, which are representations of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;” (Hebrews 9:24 WEB)

Exodus 28:36-38 - Jesus’ thoughts are all holy and heavenly. 
If you are too religious (legalistic), you’ll not be effective for earthly good, but if you are heavenly-minded, you’ll be truly abounding in earthly good. 
The word “accepted” is ratzon, like the acceptable year of the Lord in Luke 4. 
Our holy things can be tainted by ulterior motives. Our prayer and worship may not always be done in spirit and in truth.
In all our best gifts - sayings and doings, there is sin in all of them. 
Because Jesus’ thoughts are always holy, our best gifts will be accepted as holy before God. 
In the upper room, Jesus said to His disciples that up till now, they had not asked anything in His name. 
In the upper room, church truths were revealed for the first time.
There is a new pattern for prayer revealed. It’s not about tagging the end of your prayer with the name of Jesus.
When you do something in someone’s name, you’re doing it as a representative of that person. 
Praying in Jesus’ name means that you praying is as good as Jesus praying. 
When you pray, you may feel like you’re distant from God and feel like you’re far away getting closer and closer to God. 
No, you’re close to God already. You begin as a Christian already complete in Christ. Get a sense of your closeness with God. 
Our High Priest Jesus purifies everything we pray. 
The animal sacrifices under the Law are spiritual truths for today. If you offer a bullock sized offering to God today means that you have a great revelation of Jesus.
The bullock has a lot of blood in comparison to the smaller animals like lambs, pigeons and turtledoves. 
Jesus’ biggest inditement to His disciples was that they were of little faith, meaning, why ask so little of Him when He is able to give so much? 
When you pray, dare to pray bold prayers.  


““You shall make a plate of pure gold, and engrave on it, like the engravings of a signet, ‘HOLY TO YAHWEH.’ You shall put it on a lace of blue, and it shall be on the sash; on the front of the sash it shall be. It shall be on Aaron’s forehead, and Aaron shall bear the iniquity of the holy things, which the children of Israel shall make holy in all their holy gifts; and it shall be always on his forehead, that they may be accepted before Yahweh.” (Exodus 28:36-38 WEB)

Leviticus 1:16-17 - There are parts of the animal sacrifice that the Lord doesn’t want. The superfluous parts. 
Jesus removes the unnecessary parts from our prayers that go up to God, and adds His own fragrance to beautify the prayer.
Then Jesus presents the perfected prayer to the Heavenly Father. 
It’s always through Him and in Him that we offer our prayers to God. 
Jesus will change our imperfect service to the Lord and present it as perfect before God. 
Anything that speaks of Jesus is still a sweet aroma to the Lord, regardless of the size of the revelation. 
Our Heavenly Father is the One who ordained Jesus as our High Priest. 
Just come boldly to the Heavenly Father. Don’t waste time being introspective. It’s not about you, it’s about Jesus. 
Just worship, just serve. Your High Priest is making all your gifts accepted before God.  


“and he shall take away its crop with its filth, and cast it beside the altar on the east part, in the place of the ashes. He shall tear it by its wings, but shall not divide it apart. The priest shall burn it on the altar, on the wood that is on the fire. It is a burnt offering, an offering made by fire, of a pleasant aroma to Yahweh.” (Leviticus 1:16-17 WEB)

When the prophet Ezekiel saw the glory of the Lord departing from the temple, he saw that the Holy Spirit hovered over the temple, and lingered again over the patio, and at last, the Holy Spirit went to the Mount of Olives and left. 
When He left, He left so slowly and unwillingly.
But on the Day of Pentecost, He came as a rushing wind. He fills us quickly and enthusiastically. 
He indwells us forever once we believe in Jesus. We are the temple of God, completed in Christ. 

Pastor Prince moved in words of knowledge and gifts of healings: Chest pains, sports injuries on the arm, people with problems sleeping (God gives His beloved sleep), and people with problems remembering things.


Closing Prayer:
Pastor Prince prayed for us to experience God’s ratzon, that everything we touch prospers, even our mistakes. All the blessings of Deuteronomy 28 are ours. We are surrounded by God’s favor. Once we received all this, let’s go out and live for God’s glory. ​

I highly recommend purchasing Pastor Prince's sermons on his mobile app "Joseph Prince" on Apple App Store or Google Play Store even after you read these notes as I may have missed out something he shared and the overall experience is definitely different when you listen to him preaching directly!
​Use these notes as a revision guide instead of solely depending on them!

These sermon notes are independently-compiled by me, and I'm just a loyal and regular attendee of the the church's Sunday services, and I feel led to take detailed personal sermon notes of Pastor Prince's anointed messages to share them with the world, which desperately needs the true word of God and the original gospel of grace.

I feel blessed to be able to attend Pastor Joseph Prince's services in person, and would like to help everyone who isn't able to attend in person, to get hold of the messages as soon as it is preached!
