19 March 2023 - Renovations For Good Manifestations - New Creation Church Sermon Notes (Pastor Lim Lian Neo)New Sermon Notes: Pastor Lian taught us how to receive God’s manifestations of goodness in our lives through the renovation of our minds. Praise and worship songs performed: 1. The House Of The Lord - Phil Wickham 2. Rain Upon My Life - New Creation Worship 3. How Excellent Your Name - Peter Jacobs 4. Worthy - Elevation Worship 5. King Of My Heart - Bethel Music Psalm 62:5 - Have expectations this year for good manifestations from the Lord. “My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.” (Psalms 62:5 WEBUS) 2 Corinthians 12:9 - Everyone has weaknesses. Jesus’ power will be made perfect in your weakness. Let His grace fill that area of lack. “He has said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Most gladly therefore I will rather glory in my weaknesses, that the power of Christ may rest on me.” (2 Corinthians 12:9 WEBUS) Psalm 73:2-3 - Things can happen to us but it does not have to change what is inside us. Don’t let the poison get into you. “But as for me, my feet were almost gone. My steps had nearly slipped. For I was envious of the arrogant, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.” (Psalms 73:2-3 WEBUS) Let the Lord interrupt and disrupt what the devil has been trying to do to you for years. Don’t let the negative labels from others stick to you. Psalm 73:21-26, 28 - Holding on to un-forgiveness/grudges is like drinking poison and expecting others to die from it. It is just inflicting harm on yourself. We have the power to allow or disallow things to affect us. Choose to let go of grudges and bitterness for they are poison. Guard your heart from poison! Don’t do something to get back at a loved one because it will hurt you back even more. When you allow the Lord to guide you, He will soften you from the anger. He will comfort and strengthen you. “For my soul was grieved. I was embittered in my heart. I was so senseless and ignorant. I was a brute beast before you. Nevertheless, I am continually with you. You have held my right hand. You will guide me with your counsel, and afterward receive me to glory. Whom do I have in heaven? There is no one on earth whom I desire besides you. My flesh and my heart fails, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever…But it is good for me to come close to God. I have made the Lord Yahweh my refuge, that I may tell of all your works.” (Psalms 73:21-26, 28 WEBUS)

12 March 2023 - Becoming The Light Of The World - New Creation Church Sermon Notes (Pastor Gabriel Tan)New Sermon Notes: Pastor Gabriel showed us how we could become the light of the world when we have no light in and of ourselves. We can arise and shine because the Lord has lit us up! Praise and worship songs performed:
Matthew 5:14-16 - How can be the light of the world when we have no light in and of ourselves? This message will explore that. “You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill can’t be hidden. Neither do you light a lamp and put it under a measuring basket, but on a stand; and it shines to all who are in the house. Even so, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14-16 WEBUS) Teachers, your words have an impact on your students. Mark 4:13-20 - Jesus graciously explained the parable of the seed and the sower. The devil does not wait to steal God’s word from your heart. He knows that God’s word can change your life. This parable is setting the context for Jesus’ words in the next few verses. “He said to them, “Don’t you understand this parable? How will you understand all of the parables? The farmer sows the word. The ones by the road are the ones where the word is sown; and when they have heard, immediately Satan comes and takes away the word which has been sown in them. These in the same way are those who are sown on the rocky places, who, when they have heard the word, immediately receive it with joy. They have no root in themselves, but are short-lived. When oppression or persecution arises because of the word, immediately they stumble. Others are those who are sown among the thorns. These are those who have heard the word, and the cares of this age, and the deceitfulness of riches, and the lusts of other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes unfruitful. Those which were sown on the good ground are those who hear the word, accept it, and bear fruit, some thirty times, some sixty times, and some one hundred times.” (Mark 4:13-20 WEBUS) Mark 4:21-23 - The moment you received Jesus as Lord, your light was lit and you became the light of the world. You are now walking in the light. “He said to them, “Is a lamp brought to be put under a basket or under a bed? Isn’t it put on a stand? For there is nothing hidden except that it should be made known, neither was anything made secret but that it should come to light. If any man has ears to hear, let him hear.”” (Mark 4:21-23 WEBUS) The Book of Revelation is primarily the revelation of Jesus Christ, not of the Antichrist. The golden lamp-stand represents both Jesus as well as the church. Jesus is the head of the church (His body). The best place for you to shine is within the church. Everything good you do (shining as a light) points towards the central shaft (Jesus). 26 February 2023 - Exchange Natural Strength For Divine Strength - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught us not to resign to natural facts about aging but to believe God for His supernatural empowerment in our bodies for renewal of youth. Praise and worship songs performed: 1. House Of The Lord - Phil Wickham 2. King Of Kings - Hillsong Music 3. I Love You Lord - Maranatha Music 4. Glory To The Lamb - ZionSong Music Pastor Prince released words of knowledge for gifts of healings for the following conditions: Heart arrhythmia Shortness of breath Pain in the right side lower back Knee conditions Liver condition that was diagnosed by doctor Fatigue Dark and bruised toe Elbow condition Neck condition and stiff neck that could not turn Acid reflux and gastritis We will not go through the Great Tribulation. We will be looking down from Heaven at the Tribulation happening on earth. The church is not waiting for the Tribulation, but for the Rapture. During the Rapture, we will receive our glorified bodies and we will be immortal forever. Logos is a general word (the whole Scripture), whereas rhema is a more specific utterance from God for a particular time and season. The word in season that God has breathed upon. 1 Chronicles 12:32 - The word “times” here is “eth” in Hebrew and “kairos” in Greek. The rhema word released by Pastor Prince is for those who sit under his ministry. “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 WEBUS) Leviticus 27:1-8 - A vow to God is a picture of man’s strength and effort. God wants us to know our weakness and rely on His strength and grace. Grace will empower us to do more than what the Law demands. For example, instead of merely not committing adultery, Grace will cause husbands to love their wives just as Christ loved the church. This valuation is in the context of capacity for war, not in terms of standing or worth before God. In the natural and in general, a man has more capacity for war than a woman has. In general, a younger person has more capacity for war than an elderly person. The Law is about natural strength. Let the priest (a picture of Jesus and Grace) assign the valuation for you. Don’t stand before Moses (a picture of the Law). God wants you healthy, strong, and living in the supernatural, not limited to the natural valuation. “Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them, ‘When a man consecrates a person to Yahweh in a vow, according to your valuation, your valuation of a male from twenty years old to sixty years old shall be fifty shekels of silver, according to the shekel of the sanctuary. If she is a female, then your valuation shall be thirty shekels. If the person is from five years old to twenty years old, then your valuation shall be for a male twenty shekels, and for a female ten shekels. If the person is from a month old to five years old, then your valuation shall be for a male five shekels of silver, and for a female your valuation shall be three shekels of silver. If the person is from sixty years old and upward; if he is a male, then your valuation shall be fifteen shekels, and for a female ten shekels. But if he is poorer than your valuation, then he shall be set before the priest, and the priest shall assign a value to him. The priest shall assign a value according to his ability to pay.” (Leviticus 27:1-8 WEBUS) 12 February 2023 - God’s Love Casts Out All Fear - New Creation Church Sermon Notes (Pastor Gabriel Tan)New Sermon Notes: Pastor Gabriel Tan taught us the solution for our fears: receive God’s perfect love that casts out every fear. Al-tirah (don’t be afraid)! Praise and worship songs performed: 1. Reckless Love - Cory Asbury 2. Let’s Take Time To Wait 3. As The Deer - Martin Nystrom 4. The One Thing - New Creation Worship 5. No Higher Calling - Greg Gulley and Lenny LeBlanc The Word of God has the answer to all our greatest fears. Genesis 3:8-12 - This was the first occurrence of fear in the Bible. God knew where Adam was but asked that question to let Adam know that he had been separated from fellowship with Him. We sin because of fear and we fear because of sin. We lie and blame others because of fear. “They heard Yahweh God’s voice walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and the man and his wife hid themselves from the presence of Yahweh God among the trees of the garden. Yahweh God called to the man, and said to him, “Where are you?” The man said, “I heard your voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; so I hid myself.” God said, “Who told you that you were naked? Have you eaten from the tree that I commanded you not to eat from?” The man said, “The woman whom you gave to be with me, she gave me fruit from the tree, and I ate it.”” (Genesis 3:8-12 WEBUS) Genesis 15:1 - God told Abram “Al Tirah”(don’t be afraid) in Hebrew. This word came to Abram after Abram had gone to battle to rescue his nephew Lot. “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.”” (Genesis 15:1 WEBUS) Genesis 14:18-24 - Melchizedek declared that Abram belonged to God. The ruler of this world (the devil) only wants people. He wants to corrupt the hearts and minds of everyone, including your children. The devil does not care about material goods—he is after souls. Let the Word of God be your final authority—not the court of public opinion. “Melchizedek king of Salem brought out bread and wine. He was priest of God Most High. He blessed him, and said, “Blessed be Abram of God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth. Blessed be God Most High, who has delivered your enemies into your hand.” Abram gave him a tenth of all. The king of Sodom said to Abram, “Give me the people, and take the goods for yourself.” Abram said to the king of Sodom, “I have lifted up my hand to Yahweh, God Most High, possessor of heaven and earth, that I will not take a thread nor a sandal strap nor anything that is yours, lest you should say, ‘I have made Abram rich.’ I will accept nothing from you except that which the young men have eaten, and the portion of the men who went with me: Aner, Eshcol, and Mamre. Let them take their portion.”” (Genesis 14:18-24 WEBUS) Genesis 15:2-6 - Abram was afraid and complaining but God still promised to bless Abram. The word translated as “believed” in the passage below is “aman” in Hebrew which is where we get Amen. To say Amen is to declare that you believe God. Righteousness does not come from deeds—good works are the fruit of righteousness. Righteousness can only be received as a gift from God. “Abram said, “Lord Yahweh, what will you give me, since I go childless, and he who will inherit my estate is Eliezer of Damascus?” Abram said, “Behold, you have given no children to me: and, behold, one born in my house is my heir.” Behold, Yahweh’s word came to him, saying, “This man will not be your heir, but he who will come out of your own body will be your heir.” Yahweh brought him outside, and said, “Look now toward the sky, and count the stars, if you are able to count them.” He said to Abram, “So your offspring will be.” He believed in Yahweh, who credited it to him for righteousness.” (Genesis 15:2-6 WEBUS) 5 February 2023 - Receive Perfected Grace Through Prayer - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught us how to receive God’s mighty power to work in and through us by humbling ourselves and receiving purely through prayer. Praise and worship songs performed: 1. Sons And Daughters - New Creation Worship 2. Good Good Father - Pat Barrett 3. Magnificent - Darlene Zschech 4. Times Of Refreshing - Don Harris We are spirit beings who live in a body. The world looks down, expecting death to come for them, but we look up, expecting our bodily redemption from God. To live eternally with God we must be born again through faith in Jesus Christ. Pastor Prince ministered in words of knowledge for healing: Healing for joint conditions. Someone who had pain in the lower back was healed. Woman healed of pain in the wrist. Man whose shoulder joint popped out was healed and now he can rotate his arm fully. Woman who could not straighten up her back was healed and can finally stand up straight. Woman was healed of a twitch in her leg. Healing for intestinal area, stomach, womb, tumors, and growths. Ecclesiastes 3:11 - The word translated as “time” here is “kairos” in Greek in the Septuagint. God will cause what is ugly to become beautiful in this Kairos Year of Right Time Right Place. “He has made everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in their hearts, yet so that man can’t find out the work that God has done from the beginning even to the end.” (Ecclesiastes 3:11 WEBUS) If possible, come to attend the services in person. There is no replacement for the corporate anointing that is present when God’s people are gathered together to worship the Lord. Galatians 6:9 - The words translated as “due season” is actually “kairos” in Greek. There is a due season for you to reap the good harvest of what you have sown. “Let’s not be weary in doing good, for we will reap in due season if we don’t give up.” (Galatians 6:9 WEBUS) The world will get darker and darker but for God’s people we will experience His favor in this Kairos year. 15 January 2023 - Rise Up To Christ - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught us about the spiritual gifts of the Holy Spirit and how God will cause these gifts—especially the revelation and power gifts, to operate through us more frequently this year. Praise and worship songs performed: 1. Great Things - Phil Wickham 2. Supply - New Creation Worship 3. Hide Me In The Shelter - Cheryl Thomas 4. You Alone - Don Harris The best way to help a person is to give an unbeliever Jesus. The best thing you can give your children is Jesus. God does not choose to send lazy people for evangelism. He chooses people who are equipped and who have spent times and seasons studying God’s word. There are 9 spiritual gifts of the Holy Spirit: 3 Vocal gifts 3 Revelation gifts 3 Power gifts The word of knowledge is a spiritual gift where you supernaturally receive knowledge about the present from God. The gift of discerning of spirits allows you to supernaturally tell what kind of spirit a person is operating by—whether godly, demonic, or fleshly. A believer can move in the gifts even when they have bad character. Gift is given by grace, not because a believer earned it. Ideally, we need to have both the 9 fruits of the Holy Spirit and the 9 gifts of the Holy Spirit so that both the power and character are maximized. The gifts are distributed by the Holy Spirit as He chooses. A believer can operate in all 9 gifts, but some believers move more frequently in certain gifts than other kinds of gifts. We cannot decide when to start moving in a specific gift, except for the gift of speaking in tongues. The rest of the gifts are distributed by the Holy Spirit. We will move more frequently in the 9 gifts of the Holy Spirit this year. 2023 Kairos Year Of Right Time Right Place (8 January 2023) - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon Notes
New Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince said this is “2023 Kairos Year Of Right Time Right Place”. Discover how you will come upon opportune seasonable moments and happenings this year by God’s grace! Praise and worship songs performed: 1. As He Is So Are We - New Creation Worship 2. Won’t Stop Now - Elevation Worship 3. Goodness Of God - Bethel Music 4. Worthy Of It All - David Brymer Live life seeing God smiling at you every day. The Lord makes His face shine on you. In the Old Testament, the Hebrew word “panim” means face but is translated into English as “presence”. Jesus had a unique message for each of the seven local churches of Asia in the Book of Revelation. The theme of the year shared is for the local church of New Creation Church, not for the whole body of Christ. In Psalm 91, being under the shadow of the Almighty means to be so close to God and you are safe because He is protecting you. Ecclesiastes 9:11 - The word “time” in this verse is “eth” in Hebrew while the word “chance” is “qarah” in Hebrew. Eth and Qarah is about “right happening”. “I returned and saw under the sun that the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favor to men of skill; but time and chance happen to them all.” (Ecclesiastes 9:11 WEBUS) You cannot get closer to God through right behavior. You have to understand that you are already close to God because you are in Christ. Your prayers are just as powerful as if Jesus is praying Himself. This is what it means to pray in Jesus’ name. The Durian Bakery Review - Mille Crepe Cake and MSW Giant Puff for my 30th Birthday! Simple birthday celebration at home with The Durian Bakery's delicious Durian Mille Crepe Cake and MSW Giant Puffs! [Advertorial]
So I turned 30 on 2 Jan 2023! Time has flown by so quickly, it's amazing just to think about it... This year, I received a durian cake and durian puffs for my birthday. I really never expected that, but it was a welcome surprise. I haven't eaten durian for a long time and started to crave it a bit. You know, I have tried different kinds of durian cakes and durian puffs over the years, but the “Premium MSW Bundle - Mille Crepe + Super Burst Puffs” from The Durian Bakery are the best I have ever eaten! For a special price of $138.70 instead of the usual price of $166.00, one will receive:
The amount of durian fillings in both items was very generous, and the durian was sweet and fresh tasting. Everyone at home who tried the cake and puffs commented how good they were. 1 January 2023 - The Grace To Understand - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught us the importance of seeking Jesus for wisdom this year, and the amazing blessings that come from receiving understanding of God’s word. Praise and worship songs performed: 1. No Other Name - Hillsong Music 2. Forever - Chris Tomlin 3. I See Grace - New Creation Worship 4. Living Hope - Bethel Music 5. Shout To The Lord - Darlene Zschech God’s eyes are on you to bring about good in your life. We are still in the times of the Gentiles. We can enjoy food and drinks, but not excessively until it becomes gluttony or drunkenness. God’s love is with us for every step in 2023. We do not know what the future holds but we know who holds the future. Death and bad things happen in this world because of Adam’s sin. We live on a fallen earth. We need to press through in faith and prayer until we see our breakthrough. Jesus was not satisfied with the woman with the issue of blood receiving a blessing secretly. He wanted her to know that God wants her to be healed, so He called her out from the crowd and affirmed her. In all things, Jesus has the preeminence. His love is better than wine. When parents brought their children to Jesus and asked Him just to touch them, He exceeded that and embraced them. He exceeds us in everything. Those who are in Heaven now are disembodied but they are happy and at peace with their departed loved ones who are in Christ. The only part of redemption we are still waiting for now is the redemption of our mortal bodies. This will happen when the Rapture happens. I am a spirit, I have a soul (my emotions and mind), and I live in a body. Long before the body breaks down, the spirit has been troubled and down. When a person receives Jesus as Lord, he is born again in the spirit. When a person is saved, it is eternally. It is not a probational salvation. We became righteous by being born again as a righteous new creation in Christ, in the class of God’s family. God told Pastor Prince that he should pray for everyone attending the service to have a brand new mind. Adam sinned in a perfect environment (the Garden of Eden). Jesus (the Last Adam) obeyed God in a desolate environment of the wilderness. 25 December 2022 - Proofs of God’s Love For You - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince showed us from the Scriptures how we can know for sure that God loves us. Have a blessed Christmas! Praise and worship songs performed: 1. Angels We Have Heard On High 2. Joy To The World 3. Joyful, Joyful, We Adore Thee 4. The First Noel 5. What Child Is This Boy Going 6. O Holy Night 7. To Believe 8. We Are The Reason 9. The Wind And Wave - New Creation Worship 10. O Come All Ye Faithful Matthew 1:18-19 - Jesus was born of a virgin. Medical research has now found that the baby does not receive any of his parents’ blood from the placenta. Jesus’ blood is sinless. “Now the birth of Jesus Christ was like this: After his mother, Mary, was engaged to Joseph, before they came together, she was found pregnant by the Holy Spirit. Joseph, her husband, being a righteous man, and not willing to make her a public example, intended to put her away secretly.” (Matthew 1:18-19 WEBUS) Matthew 1:20 - Both Joseph and Mary came from the lineage of David. Jesus was born of the royal stock. “But when he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, don’t be afraid to take to yourself Mary as your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit.” (Matthew 1:20 WEBUS) Jesus was born King of the Jews—He was not only heir-apparent. Our sins were a barrier between us and God. Jesus came to save us from our sins. Matthew 1:23 - “Im” means “with us” and “El” means “mighty God” in Hebrew. Jesus is the mighty God with us. ““Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall give birth to a son. They shall call his name Immanuel,” which is, being interpreted, “God with us.”” (Matthew 1:23 WEBUS) God said to Adam that the day he eats of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, he would surely die. Death came in because Adam sinned. Nothing is more real than the spiritual. God who is a Spirit, brought forth the material world. Romans 8:31 - God is for us. Nothing can be against us. We can rest in God’s love as He is taking care of us. “What then shall we say about these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31 WEBUS) |
