19 August 2018 - We are Protected by the Blood of Jesus - Pastor Joseph Prince Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesPraise and Worship songs performed: (I missed out a song or two before this)
This young generation is exposed to things that the previous generations were not exposed to. The young ones today are growing up fast and not growing according to the correct seasons. The devil is starting them young on pornography, violence etc, so why are they deemed too young to receive the Holy Spirit? They need the gospel of grace too. There was a young generation of the children of Israel who were born in the wilderness, not in the atmosphere of slavery in Egypt, but in the atmosphere of miracles. They saw God as a pillar of cloud by day and a pillar of fire by night. They saw Him defeat their enemies supernaturally. The devil is always playing catch up to God. The devil’s works are more visible but what God does is invisible and more powerful because it is eternal. We’re in the best of generations - the Rapture can happen at anytime. We are the generation that delights in God’s word. We know that the Bible is the Creator’s handbook. This generation is exposed to moral degradation but when deep darkness covers the world, the believers will shine brightly because the glory of God is seen upon them. Believers are planted by the rivers of water. It doesn’t matter whether there’s a heatwave or drought. We will bring forth fruit in our season, our leaves will not wither and whatever we do prospers, even our mistakes. There is a young generation now that believes that everything they do prospers. It’s not boastfulness but they really believe in God’s word - they are greedy (in a good way) for God’s blessings - God likes that. In the Book of Revelation, it says that “the leaves were used for the healing of the nations”. Leaves are linked to health. Our health will not wither. Turkey and Russia will join forces to wage war against Israel in the future (Ezekiel 38) - it’s not clear whether it will be before or after the Rapture.
Blood has a voice. The first mention of blood in the Bible was when Cain killed Abel and God said that the voice of Abel’s blood cries out for vengeance. The blood of Jesus speaks of better things: forgiveness for all who have sinned against His Father in heaven. Not just forgiveness but protection.
