Sermon note (1st svc)
- Pastor Prince
People are excited about the Lord Jesus Christ. This is a sign for healthy soul. Revival.
Faith come by hearing and hearing the Word of God.
When you keep on hearing God’s Word, the first thing God brings you out of occupation of self and occupation of Christ. God gives up His Son for you. When you are absorbed in God’s love for you, your faith will work.
Don’t focus on faith. Ask Holy Spirit to open your eyes to see Jesus. When you see Him you become like Him.
Life are transformed and the Lord Jesus been glorified! Hot in pursue for the gospel of grace!
Blessed. Blessing
Genesis 12:2-3
I will make you a great nation;
I will bless you
And make your name great;
And you shall be a blessing.
I will bless those who bless you,
And I will curse him who curses you;
And in you all the families of the earth shall be blessed.”
It is all about blessing. What is blessing?
Blessing is endue with power. God is the only source!
Representative leader for God’s voice.
All blessing has the source only in God.
Curse is endue with power for failure.
We live in the world where we see a lot of curses. One day in heaven, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
For me to live is Christ to die is gain.
All the senses of tongue, God gives us to enjoy food.
Blessing will reverse the curse. Every man did that that was right in their own eyes.
Learn God’s way of doing things.
Barak – the word for blessing
Hear your way out. See the power of blessing in the Word of God.
We still have the mentality that you do good and you lead a good life and God will bless you. The disappointment come when your idea of morality is all confounded when you find yourself experiencing the opposite. And you find other people who are “not supposed to be blessed” and you see the blessing in their lives.
How to be blessed God’s way?

Genesis 15:1-6
God’s Covenant with Abram
(Heb. 11:8–10)
After these things the word of the Lord came to Abram in a vision, saying, “Do not be afraid, Abram. I am your shield, your exceedingly great reward.”
But Abram said, “Lord God, what will You give me, seeing I go childless, and the heir of my house is Eliezer of Damascus?” Then Abram said, “Look, You have given me no offspring; indeed one born in my house is my heir!”
And behold, the word of the Lord came to him, saying, “This one shall not be your heir, but one who will come from your own body shall be your heir.” Then He brought him outside and said, “Look now toward heaven, and count the stars if you are able to number them.” And He said to him, “So shall your descendants be.”
And he believed in the Lord, and He accounted it to him for righteousness.

Galatians 3:8
And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, “In you all the nations shall be blessed.”
Galatians 3:5-10
Therefore He who supplies the Spirit to you and works miracles among you, does He do it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?— just as Abraham “believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” Therefore know that only those who are of faith are sons of Abraham. And the Scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel to Abraham beforehand, saying, “In you all the nations shall be blessed.” So then those who are of faith are blessed with believing Abraham.
The Law Brings a Curse
For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse; for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who does not continue in all things which are written in the book of the law, to do them.”
Justification by faith.
In you all the nations shall be blessed.
Galatians 3:16
Now to Abraham and his Seed were the promises made. He does not say, “And to seeds,” as of many, but as of one, “And to your Seed,” who is Christ.
Psalms 19:1-6
The Perfect Revelation of the Lord
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
The heavens declare the glory of God;
And the firmament shows His handiwork.
Day unto day utters speech,
And night unto night reveals knowledge.
There is no speech nor language
Where their voice is not heard.
Their line has gone out through all the earth,
And their words to the end of the world.
In them He has set a tabernacle for the sun,
Which is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
And rejoices like a strong man to run its race.
Its rising is from one end of heaven,
And its circuit to the other end;
And there is nothing hidden from its heat.
Psalms 19:7
The law of the Lord is perfect, converting the soul;
The testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple;
God who supplies the Spirit to you. He don’t have time barrier !
People will receive their miracle without time barrier!

God will justify by faith and not by works
Romans 4:1-5
Abraham Justified by Faith
(Gen. 17:10)
What then shall we say that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh? For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God. For what does the Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.” Now to him who works, the wages are not counted as grace but as debt.
David Celebrates the Same Truth
But to him who does not work but believes on Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is accounted for righteousness,
God is a debtor to no man
This work is work to be right with God.
The cross of Jesus Christ. At the cross Jesus borne your sin. At the cross Jesus gave us His righteousness
God put all our sins on Jesus Christ at the cross on our behalf.

All day long confess i am the righteousness of God in Christ.

Deliver me in Your righteousness
My mouth recount Your righteousness and salvation
Psalms 71:1-2
God the Rock of Salvation
In You, O Lord, I put my trust;
Let me never be put to shame.
Deliver me in Your righteousness, and cause me to escape;
Incline Your ear to me, and save me.
Psalms 71:15-16
My mouth shall tell (saphar) of Your righteousness
And Your salvation all the day,
For I do not know their limits.
I will go in the strength of the Lord God;
I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only.
Go in the strength of the Lord by making mention of His righteousness and His only
Psalms 71:24
My tongue also shall talk of Your righteousness all the day long;
For they are confounded,
For they are brought to shame
Who seek my hurt.
All the power of darkness fled when all day long we confess we are the righteousness of God in Christ!
