Sermon Note
Pastor Mark
Chinese new year is all about prioritising the relationship than the perfect steamboat.
The spirit of chinese new year is relationship.
Enjoy the family. It is not about the place.
Prioritise your relationship
We focus on prioritising relationship.
It is how perfect He is. A groan will reach the throne.
Tell Him about our worries and care
Jesus became a Man is what He can do for us.
He desire us and wants to walk with us everyday. In life is always about prioritising Him
Life is all about relationship
It is not about place. Every picture spells life.
Come to Him and have life.
The Lord is the real rest. He comes to give us rest.
Matthew 11:28-30
“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”
Recover our life! God wants to give us life and life more abundantly
Real rest is real ℓσνє. We are made to be loved. We are made in the image of God.
Walk with Him and watch how He do it.
Learn the unforced rhythm of grace
Live freely and lightly is to come to Him
1 Chronicles 28:19
“All this,” said David, “the Lord made me understand in writing, by His hand upon me, all the works of these plans.”
Grace is always oversupply. Reach out to others.
We want everybody to share.
We have big hearts when we encounter the Lord
All these, all the plans, the Lord made David understand.
It is not how much we know about life. It is always to engage the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Lord made me understand by writing.
By His hands upon me. Enjoy the intimacy of the Lord
Walk with the Lord
As a father what is the greatest thing you teach your son? Impart your children the relationship with the Lord
Be strong and courageous
David is the man of war.
To build the temple of God you need to be in rest.
God likes to ask people who don’t know. When we say we cannot see, the Lord let us see.
Grace always open up our eyes.
When we say we cannot see, the Lord made us see.
Build the glorious temple. It is never done before.
The Lord wants to bring us to places we have not been to.
For the Lord MY God (personalise) is with me.
When there is a “must” and “should” it becomes very stress.
The Lord my God is with u.
Perfect ℓσνє cast out fear.
God will not fail us.
It is not how faithful we are. We will be faithless but He is faithful.
He will not forsake us.
When we receive Jesus, He want to bring the spring in our life.
He will never leave us or forsake us.
Step is not about what we do.
What He started He will complete.
“Then David continued, “Be strong and courageous, and do the work. Don’t be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord God, my God, is with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. He will see to it that all the work related to the Temple of the Lord is finished correctly.”
1 Chronicles 28:20 NLT
You condensed the ℓσνє of God to you.
I am highly favoured deeply loved.
We are been teleported to the greatest. We can reach heaven everyday. Enjoy heaven on earth everyday when we know His ℓσνє.
What we want most is actually the Lord. The Lord defines us.
The Lord wants to bring us the journey we have not walked before.
Be strong – be fastened to the Lord
Be courageous – Alert
Solomon was ruling and he was such young man at 18-20
He asked the Lord – He said he don’t know how to go in or go out. He told the Lord he did not know how to rule. He asked the Lord for wisdom.
When you said you don’t know, He made you know.
661 721, Emporor Kangxi ruled the longest. He was very young when he was on the throne. He allowed missionaries to come to his country.
Jesus’ disciples all young men
We all want to make an impact in life. The purpose is the work in our life. Our vision is not focused on the calling. Focus on the Caller. Spend time with the Caller and you will fulfil your calling.
Spend time with Him and all the works and plans in your life will work out.
Let us pursue Jesus, especially the world is full of darkness.
Know that He is with us, perfect ℓσνє cast out fear.
Psalms 36:9
For with You is the fountain of life;
In Your light we see light.
“Yes, and the Lord will deliver me from every evil attack and will bring me safely into his heavenly Kingdom. All glory to God forever and ever! Amen.”
2 Timothy 4:18 NLT
To deliver is to draw oneself to Him
The Lord wants us to see when this world is in darkness, He wants to draw us to Him
When we are in rest, our body immune system is super high.
Let us know He Himself will be responsible and enjoy Him everyday
2 Timothy 4:18 (MSG)
God’s looking after me, keeping me safe in the kingdom of heaven. All praise to him, praise forever! Oh, yes!
“I have observed something else under the sun. The fastest runner doesn’t always win the race, and the strongest warrior doesn’t always win the battle. The wise sometimes go hungry, and the skillful are not necessarily wealthy. And those who are educated don’t always lead successful lives. It is all decided by chance, by being in the right place at the right time.”
Ecclesiastes 9:11 NLT
Follow Jesus
As long as we follow Him, He will bring us to the right place at the right time.
When we follow the Lord, He can turn water into wine.
He always give the best in the end.
Before we are raptured, this is the glorious time to the church!
Lets give all glory to our Lord Jesus Christ!
The best is at the end. The Lord always want the best for us.
The Lord wants to show us mercy. Not just the end, in the ages to come. Grace upon grace.
The Lord wants us to be strong and courageous
We are the temple of God and the Lord lives inside us.
The Lord is with us and be Christ conscious.
We have the form but the nutritions is gone.
Let us walk slowly and follow the Lord. The Lord will bring us to the right place at the right time.
Everyday focus on Jesus.
Proverbs 3:6
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He shall direct your paths.
Psalms 23:1
The Lord the Shepherd of His People
A Psalm of David.
The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
We follow the Lord and we will not be in lack.
When we follow Him, SURELY not maybe, all the good things go after us as we go after Jesus!
Testimony –
Our Lord goes beyond time to restore what Joel lost. He closed down the company and one client did not pay them as he went bankrupt. He slowly forgot about this matter and thought his prayer will not be answered
The following week, he received a letter from government that they recovered a sum of money they recovered from this client.
He is amazed by the Lord’s awesome wonderful work.
His new company has been doing very well. He has received a lot contracts and blessings and sales look like going to overtake 2019!

When the Lord gives Solomon, what is God’s plan for us.
Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV)
For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.
Transfer of wealth is this and next year.
Don’t focus on the plan. Focus on the Lord.
When we know how much He loves us, this is the greatest treasure.
All your night seasons in your life, the Lord has taken on Himself.
The Lord is the Light in our tunnel!
See the abundance in our lives!
3pm when He said it is finished, the light came out again
During the night season, you and I are getting brighter and brighter.
