16 June 2019 - Your Abba Father Loves You - Pastor Joseph Purcell Sermon Notes - New Creation Church Sermon NotesPraise and Worship songs performed:
Happy Father’s Day! Fathers need and like to be appreciated. Your children are watching and learning from what you do, more than from what you say. As an earthly father, we have the privilege of being a physical manifestation of a father, to show our children the love of our Heavenly Father. Pastor Joseph’s father had intentionally shown affection to his wife in front of Joseph and his siblings. This sets an example for your children, teaching them to show affection to their spouse in the future. Pastor Joseph’s father once gave him a ‘mercy spanking’. As a child, pastor was about to get caned, but his father stopped short of his backside, to demonstrate the Heavenly Father’s love and mercy towards us. But his father only did that once in his life. Your Heavenly Father loves you and has mercy on you — He doesn’t condemn you or punish you for your sins. God can even use our mistakes and turn it around, to teach us about Himself. If you are a father, apologize to your children if you make a mistake towards them. Your job as a father is to demonstrate how the Heavenly Father is like. John 17:6 - The one name of God that Jesus came to reveal to the world, is “Father”. “I revealed your name to the people whom you have given me out of the world. They were yours, and you have given them to me. They have kept your word.” (John 17:6 WEB) Psalms 68:5 - If you are an orphan, God promises that He will be a Father to the fatherless. “A father of the fatherless, and a defender of the widows, is God in his holy habitation.” (Psalms 68:5 WEB)
