29 August 2021 - Receive the Love and Power of God - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesNew Sermon Notes: Pastor Joseph Prince taught us about the peace offering and how we can receive God’s love and power through this revelation. 1 Corinthians 1:23 - The world cannot understand how Jesus’ death at the cross can help them. It is not logical to them. However, work of the cross exists outside time and space. It is both the power and wisdom of God. God leads us by our intuition which is in the timeless realm. Even though you do not understand everything yet, you can still follow the Holy Spirit’s prompting. “but we preach Christ crucified; a stumbling block to Jews, and foolishness to Greeks, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God.” (1 Corinthians 1:23-24 WEB) Galatians 5:16 - Be led by the Spirit and you will not fulfill the lust of the flesh. “But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh.” (Galatians 5:16 WEB) The peace offering (“shelamim”: the plural of peace) does not atone for sins. It is the sin offering and burnt offering that make atonement for sins. The peace offering is for thanksgiving after experiencing God’s blessing. Jesus died for our sins and He also carried our diseases. Shalom is all-encompassing wholeness in every part of your being and in your life. Romans 5:1 - The peace offering comes after the sin offering and burnt offering. Peace is not something you do, it is something to be received from God. The word “have” is “echomen” in Greek which means you have to actively receive this peace. “Being therefore justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ;” (Romans 5:1 WEB) John 14:27 - Jesus gave us His peace. The peace by which He worked miracles. This peace is not dependent on world events. You can enjoy that peace right now, even amidst challenges. Every time you catch yourself feeling troubled, tell yourself, “Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.” “Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you; not as the world gives, give I to you. Don’t let your heart be troubled, neither let it be fearful.” (John 14:27 WEB) Matthew 11:30 - The way of a Christian is light and easy. “For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”” (Matthew 11:30 WEB) Proverbs 11:35 - The way of an unbeliever is hard. “Good understanding wins favor; but the way of the unfaithful is hard.” (Proverbs 13:15 WEB) Sometimes when you need healing and you ask God for it, He may give you His wisdom. For example, He may lead you to cut down on sugar intake, and that will resolve the health condition. God knows exactly what is needed.
