Sermon note

Pastor Prince

His mercy endures forever

Mercies is hesed

All kind of grace

Many folds grace of God

Grace upon (in place of) Grace 

One grace comes in place of another grace 

Romans 5:17 (NKJV)

For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.)

We must agree with God when He says something

It is not God’s will for men to die. The wages of sin is death. The day Adam sin, we will die. Death is an enemy to God. God’s hatred towards death is perfect hatred. 

God hates sickness. Not persuading God for healing 

The opening of God’s Word gives light

We all need more light in our situation

Beloved, God’s Word said He pray above all, i prosper and be in health even as our souls prosper

Sleep is not hard. It is easier to sleep than to stay awake. It is natural to fall asleep. 

It is our mentality. We got to watch it. 

What is MUCH MORE than death reigning!

Long before there was a law, God already wrote in men’s conscience 

Conscience with the word of the law 

Our sense of justice is satisfied 

Parents discipline their children. They know they done wrong they must pay. If you don’t discipline them, they will be angry with themselves. Instead they become sweeter. 

Discipline satisfy their sense of justice 

The revelation of justice is inherent in children. They will say “this is not fair”

Paul Tournier (Swiss Psychotherapist)

Numerous illnesses, both physical and nervous, and even accidents, or frustrations in social or professional life are revealed by psychoanalysis to be attempts at the expiation of guilt which is wholly unconscious. It is a form of punishment which the sufferer administers to himself, and it goes on repeating itself indefinitely with a kind of inexorable fatality.

Tree, the root is condemnation. The leaves of the tree, there are condemnation labels 

The root is condemnation and stress. Deeper is condemnation

What causes fear? Perfect love casts out fear. It is condemnation that causes fear. 

We can punish ourselves without realising we are punishing ourselves

The enemy does not care young or old. Watch what they watch. 

Your children are not too young to receive holy spirit! Get them baptised in the holy spirit

Kids understand the realm of the spirit more than we do. 

The problem are the older ones. We start reasoning before we start praying. 

Romans 5:17 (NKJV)

17 For if by the one man’s offense death reigned through the one, much more those who receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness will reign in life through the One, Jesus Christ.)

Many folds grace! Many folds hesed! 

Reign in life! Reign in every dimension of life!

The ministry of death, written and engraved in stone. 

The letter kills, but the spirit gives life!

Take it as real. Consciousness

Are you conscious of it all the time? 

Abundance of grace 

Some of us are just taking a little of grace

We got to receive much more grace!

Romans 5:20 (NKJV)

Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more

Over abounding - Over over the top 

Super over abounding ! 

The reason the 10 commandments came in, that sin might abound. 

Romans 5:20 (ESV)

Now the law came in to increase the trespass, but where sin increased, grace abounded all the more

Luke 7:37-38 (NKJV)

37 And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, 38 and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil.

Luke 7:39-40 (NKJV)

39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, “This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner.”

40 And Jesus answered and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.”

So he said, “Teacher, say it.”

Luke 7:43-44 (NKJV)

Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one whom he forgave more.”

And He said to him, “You have rightly judged.” Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head.

Jesus is beautiful! Even His correction are uplifting 

Luke 7:45-47 (NKJV)

You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in. 

You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil.

Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”

She realised how forgiven she was when she did that action 

Forgiven much end up love much

Final, once and for all 

Perfect tense, with result that continues

She knows she is forgiven of her sin of all times 

Jesus used the word, you are forgiven of all your sins. That is why she loved much

We are not receiving the abundance of grace 

Jesus was our sin offering. Not we offer our sin offering

We need each other in the body of Christ 

Son, your sin are forgiven you 

Luke 5:20-22 (NKJV)

20 When He saw their faith, He said to him, “Man, your sins are forgiven you.”

21 And the scribes and the Pharisees began to reason, saying, “Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

22 But when Jesus perceived their thoughts, He answered and said to them, “Why are you reasoning in your hearts?

All your sins. Past present and future. All forgiven. 

This kind of preaching will always produce the next reaction, they began to reason:

Who is this who speaks blasphemies? Who can forgive sins but God alone?”

That Man is no ordinary Man. 

Jesus perceived their thoughts

They reason and Jesus always perceive

Sins are forgiven and He is demonstrating to him how people are like when healing is manifested 

If you know you are forgiven of your sin, you will reign in life!

It is finished!
