Sermon Note
Pastor Prince
When Peter preached, everyone who believe in Jesus will be forgive of sin
He did not put condition on the people
Free does not means cheap. It cost God His Son
God did in such a way even His righteousness, justice are not compromised. The cross is justice and righteousness kissed judicially
God gave His Son. He was there as us.
Repentance is change of mind and belief
Man has all sinned. By Him all who believed are justified from all things by which we cannot be justified by the law of Moses
Once He saved us, He saved us eternally
Unconditional proclamation
We are saved by grace through faith
Apple trees produce apples. Apples don’t produce apple tree
We are born again and we are apple trees and we produce good fruits, Apples. We make the fruit
Today we need to use the wisdom of God. Geared to the times and anchor to Jesus
In and of Himself, He did not sin but He went there as a substitute
When He cried it is finished, He called God His Father
We are the result of what eternally existed
Death is an enemy to God
God never meant for you to die. Not even grow old
Anything to do with robot is unbending
Anything to do with human, we can flow
Life is spontaneous
God gave the 10 commandments and the men died. That is the feast of Pentecost
God gave the law and 3000 people died
This upper room is at Mount Zion. On the day of Pentecost fully come, God gave the spirit, and when Paul went to preach, 3000 people were saved
Start preaching from mercy seat and not judgement seat
God never forces you. Law demand, grace supplies
Is the heart. The problem is the heart. Trust in the Lord
Ephesians 6:17-18
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God; praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all perseverance and supplication for all the saints—
A soldier is always ready
The word dia means by means of
“through (dia – by means of) all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the Spirit, and in regard to this same, watching in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints —”
Ephesians 6:18 YLT98
Pray in unknown tongues, my spirit prays
Sing with the spirit and sing with the understanding
Understanding is your known language, your mother tongues
Know you not, your body is the temple of God
Your body is the temple, the inner
When you pray in tongues you have the interpretation
The wisdom of God
We speak the wisdom of God in mystery
We speak the wisdom of God among the mature
There is a wisdom that the world does not know about
He is unlimited! He is all-knowing
Grace. Religious spirit will promote as much as possible the law
The law came in
It is not the main agenda
We walk as Christ walk
Under grace you give!
The holy spirit knows how to go back to the past or the future when we pray in tongues
We thank Him for what we know. He is under thank. We did not thank Him for what we don’t know
Grace is not logical. Law is logical
Everyone that Jesus healed in the gospel, He never compel them to follow Him
Everyone that He healed He never use that as a pretext.
Jesus never buys hearts. He wins them by the attractiveness of grace
He never put a price tag on His healing
To be like Him is the goal
Each one follow the Lord. Each one has to answer to the Lord
Don’t even look to the preacher.
Join the preacher, look at Jesus
Everything you love to a certain extent is not perfect. It is a reflection of the things you see
A reflection of Jesus
To see Him is to be like Him
That is how holiness happen in a practical way, not by effort
“through all prayer and supplication praying at all times in the Spirit, and in regard to this same, watching in all perseverance and supplication for all the saints —”
Ephesians 6:18 YLT98
Pray in the spirit
There is a gift that keeps on giving
The gift of tongues humble us
All of you combine together, I pray in tongues more than you all
At all times – is all times you can pray
Prayer and supplication both are done in spirit
Philippians 4:6-7
Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication, with thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God; and the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.
For truly you give thanks well.
We want the peace of God to guard our hearts and minds
Guarding your heart and mind from all fears and anxiety
Requests be make known to God by someone
Be make known (Present passive imperative)
Our part is to pray to the spirit and the spirit make known to God
Been filled with the spirit on constant basis
Once we are saved we have the holy spirit
Baptism in the holy spirit
When you pray in tongues, be been filled with the holy spirit
You are not actively filling yourself
Be make known is not us making known
Even if you have symptoms in your body, the devil uses night time to attack.
Likewise the holy spirit helps us in our weakness for we do not know how to pray as we ought
The holy spirit don’t make the praying for you
Joint together. Join helper
The spirit helps us against our disease together with us
Even though the pain is there, peace.
People praying in tongues, it boost their immune system
Isaiah 28:11-12
For with stammering lips and another tongue
He will speak to this people,
To whom He said, “This is the rest with which
You may cause the weary to rest,”
And, “This is the refreshing”;
Yet they would not hear.
Rest and refreshing, yet they will not hear
We are clean on the inside by the blood of Jesus
Stumbling lips is the beginning
This is THE rest and THE refreshing!
You, blessed are your ears for you hear
Blessed are your eyes for they see
Watch unto prayers
Chronic stress releases sugar into your blood
Chronic stress is a deadly thing
Pray in the spirit whole day, every opportunity you get, every kairos
