Sermon Note

Pastor Prince

As we approach the end of the year we are stepping into new dimension

Proverbs 4:18

But the path of the just is like the shining sun, That shines ever brighter unto the perfect day.

Have the helmet of salvation on

The helmet of the hope of salvation found in the gospel of Jesus Christ

Isaiah 54:13-14

All your children shall be taught by the LORD,

And great shall be the peace of your children.

In righteousness you shall be established;

You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear;

And from terror, for it shall not come near you.

Their shalom will be great

Is not just little depth of shalom

You as a parent in righteousness you shall be established

It is so bright that the bible tell us we need to be established

2 Corinthians 4:3-4

But even if our gospel is veiled, it is veiled to those who are perishing, whose minds the god of this age has blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.

When man fell, all creation fell

He blinds the minds of people who don’t believe

Strongholds are build up

2 Corinthians 10:4-5

For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,

The devil speaks in first person

He makes you think is your own thoughts

Take no thoughts saying.

Matthew 6:31

“Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’

What is seen and felt is natural fact

Truth is higher than fact

Truth outlast facts

Fact can remain and can change too

Transform the natural fact into truth

The devil will put thoughts into your mind

He will try to make you think is you

The enemy don’t want to be detected and makes you think the thoughts are yours

Casting down arguments and every high things that exalt itself

All the while the devil is pointing us to our actions

Every time you post something online, the devil will put thoughts in your mind because he knows you have fear of men

When we are established in righteousness, it will affect our children

The helmet of hope

Positive expectation of good

Negative spirit is contagious

You are parenting even without words. If you are fearful your children will pick up

Watch what you said. Your children learn the fear. They will start to fear the world

You are trying to deal with branches and not the root

Great shall be their peace. You are at peace.

Be established in righteousness.

Their righteousness is from Me

He was wounded for our transgressions

The fruit of Jesus’ finished works is this gift of righteousness

We are established in righteousness

Isaiah 54:17

No weapon formed against you shall prosper,

And every tongue which rises against you in judgment

You shall condemn.

This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD,

And their righteousness is from Me,”

Says the LORD.

The sickness in your body won’t prosper

No weapon formed against you shall prosper

God was in the speech of Joshua and Caleb

Truth outlast natural fact

God is the God of truth

When everything dies down, God is still there

Those who abide in God are established forever.

This area of warfare is in your mind

Just one thought

The devil may say you are this and that.

He will put thoughts in terms of argument

Sheep cannot sleep. They cannot rest unless they know the shepherd is nearby

Bring the good shepherd into it

Even in the midst, you are walking through.

It is on a season in your life

Psalms 23:4

Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,

I will fear no evil;

For You are with me;

Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

Psalms 23:6

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me

All the days of my life;

And I will dwell in the house of the LORD

Forever.

Pursue

Hunt you down

Goodness smack you

Mercy. Hesed. God’s favour smack you in the face

All the days. Surely, not maybe

Surely goodness and mercy shall pursue you all the days of your life

Until you dwell in the house of the Lord forever

Faith is now

Hope is future

Hope is confident expectation of good in your future

I am confident goodness and mercy is hunting me down. They will hunt you down in the midst of pandemic

Who can eat during the battle

Communion table

You eat in the midst of your enemies

You eat your way into life and wholeness

2 Corinthians 10:4-5

For the weapons of our warfare are not carnal but mighty in God for pulling down strongholds, casting down arguments and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God, bringing every thought into captivity to the obedience of Christ,

Not our obedience. It is a matter of turning away to Jesus

The devil will remind you of things you have not done. He will make you self occupied

Be Christ occupied

2 Corinthians 3:18

But we all, with unveiled face, beholding as in a mirror the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from glory to glory, just as by the Spirit of the Lord.

The holy spirit needs you to behold Christ

When people behold Christ they are transformed into the same image

Eyes on Jesus is the material for holy spirit to work with.

Eyes on yourself, the holy spirit does not have material to work with

Not our obedience but His obedience

Romans 5:19

For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so also by one Man’s obedience many will be made righteous.

How are we made righteous?

By one man’s obedience

Turn it back to His obedience make me righteous

I am the righteousness of God in Christ

Light shone in and darkness is removed

The gospel of Jesus Christ unveiled and transform people’s lives

Repentance means change your mind

Acts 11:2-5

And when Peter came up to Jerusalem, those of the circumcision contended with him, saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!”

But Peter explained it to them in order from the beginning, saying: “I was in the city of Joppa praying; and in a trance I saw a vision, an object descending like a great sheet, let down from heaven by four corners; and it came to me.

Acts 11:14-15

who will tell you words by which you and all your household will be saved.’ And as I began to speak, the Holy Spirit fell upon them, as upon us at the beginning.

Grace gives you words to believe upon

Those words believe upon will change your life

Laws for you to perform

Grace gives you words to believe upon

Acts 11:17-18

If therefore God gave them the same gift as He gave us when we believed on the Lord Jesus Christ, who was I that I could withstand God?”

When they heard these things they became silent; and they glorified God, saying, “Then God has also granted to the Gentiles repentance to life.”

They became silent and they glorify God

Repentance to life

Acts 10:43-44

To Him all the prophets witness that, through His name, whoever believes in Him will receive remission of sins.”

The Holy Spirit Falls on the Gentiles

While Peter was still speaking these words, the Holy Spirit fell upon all those who heard the word.

Embrace

The holy spirit gave them bear hugs

Receive forgiveness of sin

His obedience. That one man’s obedience

Even though the word repentance was not used

Repent means change your mind

Not going to think thoughts of negative

Focus on one Man’s obedience make me righteous

Bring every thoughts to His obedience that makes us righteous

This is warfare

The devil wants to blind your mind so that you don’t see the enemy

We have seen the victory

Always pointing back to what Jesus did

What does holiness looks like

Practical holiness

You may have action that seems christian but that is not the holiness.

Revelation 2:2

“I know your works, your labor, your patience, and that you cannot bear those who are evil. And you have tested those who say they are apostles and are not, and have found them liars;

Your first σνє is not your σνє for Him but His σνє for you

Your works your labor your patience

1 Thessalonians 1:3

remembering without ceasing your work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father,

What was missing that church was your work of faith, σνє and patience of hope

True holiness is you got to have faith and σνє

They have the work but don’t have faith patience and σνє

Outward form but not the joy, this is not what God wants

He wants good works.

Only faith can produce good

The Lord wants to σνє His people

The hungry flock

In seeing the Lord loves you.

Is a patience of hope

A light in your eyes

A radiance in your face

We still live by the gospel, by grace

You live by the gospel every single day

Whole and prosper

Gospel of grace

God sees the hearts, men see the actions

We are people of the day, not the night

Without Jesus nothing is day

He lights up the darkness

When you have Jesus you don’t experience any night

1 Thessalonians 5:8

But let us who are of the day be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love, and as a helmet the hope of salvation.

Once you are born again, your status has changed

You have hope now

I will see good in my future

God prophesied the future.

He said light be and He saw light

Only 2 of them said we are well able with God

They defeated the lands seemingly easily

Every good preaching will produce faith hope and σνє

Without faith is impossible to please God

Galatians 3:8

And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed.

God foresaw the way Abraham was justified they are going to be justified

God rebuked the king and justified him

We are declared righteous

Psalms 128:3-4

Thy wife shall be as a fruitful vine

by the sides of thine house:

thy children like olive plants

round about thy table.

Behold, that thus shall the man be blessed that feareth the LORD.

Focus on been the blessed man

Your wife shall be like fruitful vine that intoxicate you. Your children shall be like blessed

Focus on being the blessed man

Bring the blessing of God

May the σνє of your spouse intoxicate you always

Whatever is anointed becomes flowing

It is smooth and move prosperously

I pray that God will revive your marriage and your children will be like olive trees

There is light in your dwelling

May your house be filled with His light

Brightness and glory

When we experience God’s forgiveness we forgive

We σνє because He first loved us
