20 September 2020 - Receive Health and Prosperity from your High Priest - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesPastor Joseph Prince taught us how to practically receive health and prosperity through the ways God has graciously provided for the church: the Lord's Supper and the tithe. Just as Melchizedek brought the bread and wine, blessing Abram, Jesus is our high priest forever in the order of Melchizedek! Praise and worship songs performed: 1. Goodness of God - Bethel Music 2. In The Presence of Jehovah 3. My King - New Creation Worship Originally preached at Hillsong Church’s Sunday service on 7 July 2019. The devil has come against the church prospering in all things—including financially. There is a spirit of intimidation working against the church. Wherever the Gospel has gone, it produces health, healing, wellbeing and prosperity. Wherever the Gospel has not reached, women are still subjugated and people are still stuck in poverty. 3 John 1:2 - Prospering in all things is not about spiritual prosperity only. Spiritual prosperity is already in the “even as your soul prospers”. If you give to the Lord, prepare to receive more than you gave. You can count how many seeds are in an apple, but you can’t count how many apples are in a seed. “Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in all things and be healthy, even as your soul prospers.” (3 John 1:2 WEB) 2 Corinthians 8:9 - The context of this verse is about giving and finances. They didn’t even give Jesus the courtesy of a loincloth. He hung there naked on the cross as the soldiers gambled for His clothes. Jesus became poor at the cross. He wasn’t poor before that. “For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that you through his poverty might become rich.” (2 Corinthians 8:9 WEB) Hebrew 5:10-12 - God judges you based on how good your high priest is. As the high priest goes, so goes the nation. Jesus is our high priest in the order of Melchizedek. This portion of Scripture about Melchizedek is the most quoted Old Testament Scripture in the New Testament. The Melchizedek is nothing but blessing, and blessing. There is no cursing like under the Levitical priesthood. Jesus' priesthood also has no cursing because Jesus became a curse on the tree to redeem you from the curse! The revelations about Melchizedek is solid food, not milk—it’s for matured Christians who are ready to receive. “named by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek. About him we have many words to say, and hard to interpret, seeing you have become dull of hearing. For although by this time you should be teachers, you again need to have someone teach you the rudiments of the first principles of the revelations of God. You have come to need milk, and not solid food.” (Hebrews 5:10-12 WEB) The only time Melchizedek appears in the Scriptures is after Abram won a battle against four kings to rescue his nephew Lot.
