Sermon Note
Pastor Lian
Isaiah 40:31
but those who hope in the LORD
will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles;
they will run and not grow weary,
they will walk and not be faint.
You shall soar. Raise up with wings like the eagles! Eagles soar especially in storm
We have a heavenly vision. We will see beyond the natural.
God has prepared for us this year. He will reveal to us through His spirit
Eagles can see the snakes. They will observe and see and know. The eagles are so bold. When you see the evil ones with attack, you shall not be afraid
The eagles know how to protect themselves. We shall trample on snakes.
We shall run to win
1 Corinthians 2:9-11
But as it is written:
“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God.
Whatever you are going through today, we are made to soar and run to win!
We are more than conqueror through Him who loves us.
Jesus conquered! The battle is His, the victory is ours!
1 Corinthians 9:24-25
Striving for a Crown
Do you not know that those who run in a race all run, but one receives the prize? Run in such a way that you may obtain it. And everyone who competes for the prize is temperate in all things. Now they do it to obtain a perishable crown, but we for an imperishable crown.
2 Corinthians 5:10
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.
God has a glorious prize for us
I have this prize, this eternal prize for every single one of you
Bema is a tribunal for rewards.
We are all already winners.
Run to win! Live a life that glorify God
This year it shall be a glorious race. We start strong and end strong
We have a God who is good. A God who has unmerited favour for us.
Serving is not sacrifice. It is honor, privilege
Don’t live for those prize that can fade
We have a God who will raise dead things.
We have a God who loves us when we don’t deserve it
The Lord said you are beautiful. You are faithful. You have dove eyes.
In His eyes were only love for you.
You are fair. You are beautiful. I believe in you. I love you, I will never give up on you.
See His face smiling at you.
All of you are fair. I love you My child
We are going to run to win
