13 March 2022 - Four Pillars Of A Thriving Church - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught about the work of the Holy Spirit in the church, and how four important pillars that existed since the church was born empower us to flow with the will of God! Praise and Worship Song Performed: 1. For My Good - New Creation Worship 2. As The Deer - Martin Nystrom The church of Jesus Christ is God’s idea. When we gather we as a church, the Holy Spirit works with His manifold graces and diverse giftings to edify and minister to all. After the exile to Babylon, Jerusalem never reverted to idolatry again. Sometimes tough times teach us important lessons. Haggai 1:6, 9 - The Jews were suffering from lack because they neglected the house of God. “You have sown much, and bring in little. You eat, but you don’t have enough. You drink, but you aren’t filled with drink. You clothe yourselves, but no one is warm, and he who earns wages earns wages to put them into a bag with holes in it.” “You looked for much, and, behold, it came to little; and when you brought it home, I blew it away. Why?” says Yahweh of Armies, “Because of my house that lies waste, while each of you is busy with his own house.” (Haggai 1:6, 9 WEB) Revelation 11:8-9 - This was impossible in the past such that people mocked it, but now with the Internet and satellite TV, this is made possible. “Their dead bodies will be in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also their Lord was crucified. From among the peoples, tribes, languages, and nations people will look at their dead bodies for three and a half days, and will not allow their dead bodies to be laid in a tomb.” (Revelation 11:8-9 WEB) 1 Corinthians 10:32 - When God looks down on earth, He only sees these three groups of people: Jew, Gentile, and the church of God. “Give no occasion for stumbling, either to Jews, or to Greeks, or to the assembly of God;” (1 Corinthians 10:32 WEB) Matthew 16:18 - The church is on the offense and making inroads. The gates of Hell are defensive. “I also tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my assembly, and the gates of Hades will not prevail against it.” (Matthew 16:18 WEB) Matthew 18:20 - Two or three is the smallest plurality. When the Holy Spirit gathers believers together in Jesus’ name, that is the church. “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there I am in the middle of them.”” (Matthew 18:20 WEB) 1 Corinthians 12:27 - We are individual members of the body of Christ. “Now you are the body of Christ, and members individually.” (1 Corinthians 12:27 WEB) Ephesians 5:30 - Jesus’ glorified body has flesh and bones. “because we are members of his body, of his flesh and bones.” (Ephesians 5:30 WEB) 1 John 4:17 - Confess that you are one with Jesus. You have healthy flesh and bones just like Him. “In this love has been made perfect among us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so are we in this world.” (1 John 4:17 WEB) Colossians 4:14 - Luke is a beloved physician. “Luke, the beloved physician, and Demas greet you.” (Colossians 4:14 WEB) Luke 6:6 - Luke recorded details like this: he pointed out that it was the man’s right hand which was withered. “It also happened on another Sabbath that he entered into the synagogue and taught. There was a man there, and his right hand was withered.” (Luke 6:6 WEB) Luke 1:3 - Theophilus was likely a high-ranking Roman official. “it seemed good to me also, having traced the course of all things accurately from the first, to write to you in order, most excellent Theophilus;” (Luke 1:3 WEB) Acts 1:1 - Luke is also the author of the Book of Acts. The Gospel of Luke is about the thirty plus years of the life of Christ. Book of Acts is an account of the thirty plus years of church life in the body of Christ. “The first book I wrote, Theophilus, concerned all that Jesus began both to do and to teach,” (Acts 1:1 WEB) Luke 1:35 - The Holy Spirit was involved in the conception of Jesus in Mary’s womb. “The angel answered her, “The Holy Spirit will come on you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. Therefore also the holy one who is born from you will be called the Son of God.” (Luke 1:35 WEB) Galatians 4:4 - The fullness of the time here is talking about Jesus’ birth. “But when the fullness of the time came, God sent out his Son, born to a woman, born under the law,” (Galatians 4:4 WEB) Acts 2:1-2 - Luke is talking about the birth of the church here. The church is still growing today and it is winning. “Now when the day of Pentecost had come, they were all with one accord in one place. Suddenly there came from the sky a sound like the rushing of a mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.” (Acts 2:1-2 WEB) The way the Lord wants to bring His supply to you is primarily through the church. He wants you to be planted in a local church. Matthew 28:18-19 - When a traffic police lifts up his hand, it is not his own physical strength that stops an incoming truck, but the authority that is backing him. We have God-given authority in the name of Jesus. “Jesus came to them and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth. Go, and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,” (Matthew 28:18-19 WEB) Mark 16:20 - The Gospel of Mark portrays Jesus as strong to labor like an ox. Jesus is depicted as an untiring servant. In the first chapter, it opens with words like “immediately”, “at once”, and “suddenly”, indicating prompt service. “They went out, and preached everywhere, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word by the signs that followed. Amen.” (Mark 16:20 WEB) God gave authority to Adam. What He gives He never takes back. Adam lost that authority when he obeyed Satan in sinning. God used a legal channel to reclaim the authority which was taken by Satan. He did this by sending Jesus to die at the cross to pay for all our sins. Acts 8:29 - It was the Holy Spirit who led Philip to meet the Ethiopian royal eunuch and evangelize to him. “The Spirit said to Philip, “Go near, and join yourself to this chariot.”” (Acts 8:29 WEB) Acts 13:2 - The Holy Spirit asked for Paul and Barnabbas to be separated for His purpose. “As they served the Lord and fasted, the Holy Spirit said, “Separate Barnabas and Saul for me, for the work to which I have called them.”” (Acts 13:2 WEB) Acts 16:7 - The Holy Spirit restrains us from making unfruitful choices. He helps us be at the right place at the right time. “When they had come opposite Mysia, they tried to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit didn’t allow them.” (Acts 16:7 WEB) 2 Thessalonians 2:6 - The Holy Spirit is found in the church. He is the one restraining the worst evil from happening on earth. This will change during the Tribulation after the Rapture happens. “Now you know what is restraining him, to the end that he may be revealed in his own season.” (2 Thessalonians 2:6 WEB) Matthew 5:13-14 - We have the Holy Spirit who makes us salt and light that purifies and cleanses. ““You are the salt of the earth, but if the salt has lost its flavor, with what will it be salted? It is then good for nothing, but to be cast out and trodden under the feet of men. You are the light of the world. A city located on a hill can’t be hidden.” (Matthew 5:13-14 WEB) The anointing of the Holy Spirit makes things effortlessly easy. It is like oil being added to the hinge of a creaking door. It is a flow that makes things prosper and effortlessly easy. Matthew 24:6 - The end is not yet. The Holy Spirit in us restrains the worst from happening. “You will hear of wars and rumors of wars. See that you aren’t troubled, for all this must happen, but the end is not yet.” (Matthew 24:6 WEB) Acts 2:4 - The Holy Spirit empowered the disciples to speak in tongues. “They were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and began to speak with other languages, as the Spirit gave them the ability to speak.” (Acts 2:4 WEB) Luke 2:52 - This is the last verse in Luke chapter 2. “And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favor with God and men.” (Luke 2:52 WEB) Acts 2:47 - This is the last verse in Acts 2 which is a parallel to Luke 2:52. When God blesses the church, it grows in stature as well. “praising God, and having favor with all the people. The Lord added to the assembly day by day those who were being saved.” (Acts 2:47 WEB)

The devil has clouded the word “church” such that people think of an old building, organ music, dull and dreary, but nothing can be further from the truth.

Your Saving Grace - New Creation Worship 3 John 1:2 - John the apostle knew what God’s will is. The Hebrew word for “prosper” is “tsalach”. Prosperity in all things. “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers.” (3 John 1:2 WEB) Psalm 1:3 - Meditating on God’s word will cause us to prosper in all things and be healthy. “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) John 17:17 - God sets us apart from this world’s uncleanness and disease through His word. We walk in this world but we are not of the world. “Sanctify them in your truth. Your word is truth.” (John 17:17 WEB) 1 Thessalonians 4:17 - It is one thing to be alive because you are young, and it is another thing to remain alive by God’s power working in you. “then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air.

We have the Bible. “But the word of God grew and multiplied.” (Acts 12:24 WEB) Joshua 14:10-11 - There is no point for long life if you are not strong and healthy. Caleb was not exaggerating. At the age of eighty-five, he had the strength for war and he was victorious against the giants. ““Now, behold, Yahweh has kept me alive, as he spoke, these forty-five years, from the time that Yahweh spoke this word to Moses, while Israel walked in the wilderness. Now, behold, I am eighty-five years old, today. As yet I am as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me.

Yet, to remain in the flesh is more needful for your sake.” (Philippians 1:23-24 WEB) Psalm 116:8, 15 - It is very costly when one of God’s saints departs before his time because he is unable to continue ministering to others in the world with all the God-given gifts inside him. “For you have delivered my soul from death, my eyes from tears, and my feet from falling. Precious in Yahweh’s sight is the death of his saints.” (Psalms 116:8, 15 WEB) Job 5:26 - It is possible to die before one’s time.

When you embrace God’s wisdom, she embraces you with her two hands. Solomon had the left hand, but not the right hand of wisdom (length of days). “Wisdom is supreme. Get wisdom. Yes, though it costs all your possessions, get understanding. Esteem her, and she will exalt you. She will bring you to honor, when you embrace her.” (Proverbs 4:7-8 WEB) 20 February 2022 - The Secret of Long Life And Youth Renewal - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught how in the end times, there will be a revelation for believers that causes us to remain young, strong, healthy, and full of life as we await the Rapture!

Sin is sin and it produces death. “For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 6:23 WEB) 2 Timothy 3:1-3 - This is what many people are like these days. “But know this, that in the last days, grievous times will come. For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, without natural affection, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, not lovers of good,” (2 Timothy 3:1-3 WEB) Proverbs 28:22 - Acceleration is God’s part. We do need not to try and accelerate our own blessings. Our part is to rest in Him and in Jesus’ finished work at the cross. “A man with an evil eye hastens after riches, And does not consider that poverty will come upon him.” (Proverbs 28:22 NKJV) Isaiah 53:4 - Jesus bore our sicknesses and diseases at the cross so that we can receive healing. “Surely he has borne our sickness, and carried our suffering; yet we considered him plagued, struck by God, and afflicted.” (Isaiah 53:4 WEB) Matthew 8:17 - Jesus paid for our physical healing, not just spiritual healing. “that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through Isaiah the prophet, saying, “He took our infirmities, and bore our diseases.”” (Matthew 8:17 WEB) Genesis 26:18 - The devil is trying to cover up God’s truths so that believers remain defeated. “Isaac dug again the wells of water, which they had dug in the days of Abraham his father. For the Philistines had stopped them after the death of Abraham. He called their names after the names by which his father had called them.” (Genesis 26:18 WEB) Amos 9:11 - God is repairing the breaches today.

Matthew 11:28-29 - The word “labor” in Greek is “kopiaó” which means wearisome labor. The words “heavily burdened” in the Greek means to be anxious. The word “rest” in the Greek means to remain, to be refreshed, to take ease. There is a rest that Jesus gives, and there is a rest that we find. When we put Jesus in the center of our lives, we will find His rest. ““Come to me, all you who labor and are heavily burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart; and you will find rest for your souls.” (Matthew 11:28-29 WEB) Resting means not be using your own effort to force, drive, nag, etc. Let go and let God take over. Pastor Lian shared a testimony of a student who was struggling in Chinese, but after she learned to rest in Jesus, she scored a good result in her final examinations. Isaiah 30:15 - The word for “returning” in Hebrew is “teshuvah”. The last Hebrew letter in the word is “hei” which means grace. We return to grace. The word for “saved” in Hebrew is “yasha” which means defend, deliver, help, preserve, get victory, etc. “For thus said the Lord Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel, “You will be saved in returning and rest. Your strength will be in quietness and in confidence.” You refused,” (Isaiah 30:15 WEB) John 1:17 - Grace is Jesus Himself. Return to Jesus. “For the law was given through Moses.

Glorious And Beautiful - New Creation Worship 4. I Give You My Heart - Hillsong Music Psalm 122:1 - David was glad just to hear words spoken about going to the house of God.

God You’re So Good - Brett Younker Matthew 6:26-34 - We do not need to worry about the things that the world worries about. God will supply all our needs. We only need to focus on His righteousness (which is Jesus). “Therefore I tell you, don’t be anxious for your life: what you will eat, or what you will drink; nor yet for your body, what you will wear. Isn’t life more than food, and the body more than clothing? See the birds of the sky, that they don’t sow, neither do they reap, nor gather into barns. Your heavenly Father feeds them. Aren’t you of much more value than they? “Which of you, by being anxious, can add one moment to his lifespan? Why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow. They don’t toil, neither do they spin, yet I tell you that even Solomon in all his glory was not dressed like one of these. But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today exists, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, won’t he much more clothe you, you of little faith? “Therefore don’t be anxious, saying, ‘What will we eat?’, ‘What will we drink?’ or, ‘With what will we be clothed?’ For the Gentiles seek after all these things; for your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. But seek first God’s Kingdom, and his righteousness; and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore don’t be anxious for tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Each day’s own evil is sufficient.” (Matthew 6:25-34 WEB) Roman’s 14:17 - The kingdom of God is about His righteousness (Jesus). “for God’s Kingdom is not eating and drinking, but righteousness, peace, and joy in the Holy Spirit.” (Romans 14:17 WEB) The Mandarin word for righteousness is義. In this word, there are parts that show the Gospel story: the Lord from Heaven is King and He became our sacrificial Lamb so that we can be found in Him and have His righteousness. 2 Corinthians 5:21 - Jesus became sin for us so that we have become the righteousness of God in Christ. “For him who knew no sin he made to be sin on our behalf; so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.” (2 Corinthians 5:21 WEB) Romans 3:24 - We have been saved freely through God’s grace. “being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus;” (Romans 3:24 WEB) Roman’s 4:25 - Praise the Lord because Jesus has been raised from the dead. This means our sins have really been forgiven. “who was delivered up because of our offenses, and was raised because of our justification.” (Romans 4:25 NKJV) Philippians 4:19 - God’s supply and provision is found in Christ Jesus. In life, let us pursue Jesus. “My God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19 WEB) Chinese New Year features a lot of red and gold colors. Red reminds us of Jesus’ blood and gold about divine righteousness (we received the gift of righteousness). Thanks to this, we can receive every blessing of God. Abba God’s heart is full of love for His Son Jesus. 23 January 2022 - Put Aleph Tav in the Center - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught that as we rest from human strength and let Jesus the Aleph Tav be in the center of every area of our lives, He will hold all these things together.

They have pierced my hands and feet.” (Psalms 22:16 WEB) Luke 4:19-20 - Jesus closed the book before the part about the day of vengeance. We are still in the acceptable year of the Lord. Jesus’ first coming was not to bring judgment, but salvation to all mankind. “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.” (Luke 4:19-20 WEB) Isaiah 61:12 - The acceptable year of the Lord is long (it has been more than two thousand years since Jesus’ birth) whereas vengeance is short—just a day of vengeance (the seven year Tribulation). “To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, And the day of vengeance of our God; To comfort all who mourn,” (Isaiah 61:2 NKJV) Amos 9:11-12 - There is a divine hint about the blessing of Obed-Edom here. He was a Gittite (Gentile). When God restores the breaches of the Tabernacle of David, you will also experience family blessings. “In that day I will raise up the tent of David who is fallen, and close up its breaches, and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old; that they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations who are called by my name,” says Yahweh who does this.” (Amos 9:11-12 WEB) 1 Chronicles 13:11 - This is the place of breaking of man’s strength. “David was displeased, because Yahweh had broken out against Uzza.

You are the branches. He who remains in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5 WEB) Exodus 19:8 - Man presumed on his own strength to keep the Law. The next thing we see is the children of Israel making a golden calf and committing the sin of idolatry. The Law is like a mirror that reveals who you are. It reveals man’s sinfulness. When a person tries to keep the Law, his sin in the flesh rises up and shows that the man is a sinner. “All the people answered together, and said, “All that Yahweh has spoken we will do.” Moses reported the words of the people to Yahweh.” (Exodus 19:8 WEB) Romans 5:6 - Man has no strength of his own. “For while we were yet weak, at the right time Christ died for the ungodly.” (Romans 5:6 WEB) 16 January 2022 - The Secret of Obed-Edom’s Blessing - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught us why Obed-Edom was so abundantly blessed when the Ark of the Covenant was kept in his house.

Behold, now is the day of salvation.” (2 Corinthians 6:2 WEB) John 11:21, 25 - Jesus is the “I Am”. He is a very present help in our time of need. “Therefore Martha said to Jesus, “Lord, if you would have been here, my brother wouldn’t have died. Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will still live, even if he dies.” (John 11:21, 25 WEB) Deuteronomy 33:25 - As your age increases, your strength will also increase. This is the opposite of what the world and its experts believe. All of God’s promises are “Yes” and “Amen” for us in Christ. “Your bars will be iron and brass. As your days, so your strength will be.” (Deuteronomy 33:25 WEB) Luke 18:27 - When God says something, He wants us to believe it. “But he said, “The things which are impossible with men are possible with God.”” (Luke 18:27 WEB) Joshua 14:11 - Caleb was not lying or exaggerating. God kept him young and strong. “As yet I am as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me. As my strength was then, even so is my strength now for war, to go out and to come in.” (Joshua 14:11 WEB) Luke 1:38 - Zechariah doubted when the angel Gabriel brought a message to him. For his unbelief, he was made mute until the time of John’s birth. On the other hand, Mary believed the word of the Lord that came to her from Gabriel. “Let it be done to me according to your word” is basically saying “Amen”. “Mary said, “Behold, the servant of the Lord; let it be done to me according to your word.” The angel departed from her.” (Luke 1:38 WEB) Genesis 15:6 - The verse in Hebrew says that Abraham “amen” Yahweh (the Lord). We must say Amen to God’s word. “He believed in Yahweh, who credited it to him for righteousness.” (Genesis 15:6 WEB) Psalm 78:68 - God loves Mount Zion, not Mount Sinai. Mount Zion is where God chose as His resting place. “But chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion which he loved.” (Psalms 78:68 WEB) King Saul had no desire for the presence of Jesus (represented by the Ark of the Covenant), whereas David had a heart for the Ark. If you open and unfold the Ark, it forms the shape of a cross. There is a man at God the Father’s right hand. He is making intercession for us and He represents us before the Father. As He (Jesus) is, so are we in this world. 9 January 2022 - God Carries Your Heavy Burdens - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon Vision SundayNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught us how to bear Jesus up through exalting Him in our lives, and God will in turn carry us and our heavy burdens. This is one way to rest in the Lord and see accelerated blessings this year! Praise and Worship Song Performed: 1. YHVH - New Creation Worship 2. I Exalt Thee - Pete Sanchez Jr. 3. Magnificent - Hillsong Music This year, we will see the manifestation of things we have prayed for for a long time, and it will happen fast. Romans 12:2 - God’s word will renew our minds so that we don’t think like the world. The world is stressed out, chasing after things and unable to rest. “Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.” (Romans 12:2 WEB) 1 Corinthians 2:12 - What the people are pursuing with all their stress and laborious toil, we receive it freely from our God. “But we received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God, that we might know the things that were freely given to us by God.” (1 Corinthians 2:12 WEB) Isaiah 48:17 - God will lead us in the way we should go this year and teach us to profit in all things. “Yahweh, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel says: “I am Yahweh your God, who teaches you to profit, who leads you by the way that you should go.” (Isaiah 48:17 WEB) Isaiah 30:21 - We will hear God’s voice and be led by Him. “and when you turn to the right hand, and when you turn to the left, your ears will hear a voice behind you, saying, “This is the way. Walk in it.”” (Isaiah 30:21 WEB) Proverbs 3:17 - The Lord leads us on paths of pleasantness and peace. “Her ways are ways of pleasantness. All her paths are peace.” (Proverbs 3:17 WEB) Genesis 22:14 - This is when the title Yahweh Yireh was first revealed. “Abraham called the name of that place Yahweh Will Provide. As it is said to this day, “On Yahweh’s mountain, it will be provided.”” (Genesis 22:14 WEB) John 8:56 - Abraham saw a vision of Jesus at the cross, at that same place: Mount Zion. “Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day. He saw it, and was glad.”” (John 8:56 WEB) Psalm 22:1, 3- Jesus declared these words at the cross because He bore our sins there. Jesus always looks to bring glory to the Father. “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me? Why are you so far from helping me, and from the words of my groaning? But you are holy, you who inhabit the praises of Israel.” (Psalms 22:1, 3 WEB) John 10:17 - Jesus was never more pleasing to the Father than when Jesus offered Himself up at the cross. “Therefore the Father loves me, because I lay down my life, that I may take it again.” (John 10:17 WEB) All the holy requirements of the Law have been fully met at the cross by the shedding of Jesus’ blood. |
