07 Jan 2023 Sermon – Thou shalt have good success

Audio sermon

Dear Beloved,

We thank God for the 1st saturday of the year.

Psalms 118:23-24

[c]This was the Lord’s doing; It is marvelous in our eyes.
24 This is the day the Lord has made; We will rejoice and be glad in it.

God has already gone ahead and given you victory. All you need to do isto follow on his foot trails. Donot get distracted nor diverted and donot lose your focus

God says- If you are desirous and zealous to do my purpose, I shall be desirous to fulfill all your needs.

Hebrews 12:2

looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith, who for the joy that was set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.

Joel 2:21-27

Fear not, O land; Be glad and rejoice, For the Lord has done [i]marvelous things!
22 Do not be afraid, you beasts of the field; For the open pastures are springing up,
And the tree bears its fruit; The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
23 Be glad then, you children of Zion, And rejoice in the Lord your God; For He has given you the [j]former rain faithfully,
And He will cause the rain to come down for you— The former rain, And the latter rain in the first month.
24 The threshing floors shall be full of wheat, And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.

25 “So I will restore to you the years that the swarming [k]locust has eaten, The crawling locust, The consuming locust, And the chewing locust, My great army which I sent among you.

26 You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, And praise the name of the Lord your God,

Who has dealt wondrously with you; And My people shall never be put to shame.
27 Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel:
am the Lord your God And there is no other. My people shall never be put to shame.

God’s Spirit Poured Out

Sermon : Be strong and Courageous- Thou shalt have good success

Joshua 1:1-9

And it was done after the death of Moses, the servant of the Lord, that the Lord spake to Joshua, the son of Nun, the servant of Moses, and said to him,

Moses, my servant is dead; rise thou, and pass [over] this Jordan, thou, and all the people with thee, into the land which I shall give to the sons of Israel. (My servant Moses is dead; rise thou up, and cross over the Jordan River to the other side, thou, and all the people with thee, into the land which I shall give to the Israelites.)

I shall give to you each place which the step of your foot shall tread, as I spake to Moses,

from the desert and Lebanon till to the great flood [of] Euphrates; all the land of Hittites, unto the great sea against the going down of the sun, shall be your term. (from the wilderness and Lebanon unto the great Euphrates River; yea, all the Hittites’ land, unto the Great Sea, that is, the Mediterranean Sea, in the west, shall be your land.)

None shall be able to against-stand you in all the days of thy life (No one shall be able to stand against you all the days of thy life); as I was with Moses, so I shall be with thee; I shall not leave (thee), neither I shall forsake thee.

Be thou comforted, and be thou strong; for thou shalt part by lot to this people the land, for which I swore to thy fathers, that I should give it to them. (Be thou encouraged, and be thou strong; for thou shalt divide up by lot the land to this people, which I swore to thy fathers, that I would give them.)

Therefore be thou comforted, and be thou full strong, that thou keep and do all the law, which Moses, my servant, commanded to thee; bow thou not from it to the right side, either to the left side, that thou understand all things which thou doest. (And so be thou encouraged, and be thou strong, so that thou obey and do all the law, which my servant Moses commanded to thee; turn thou not from it to the right, or to the left, so that thou shalt prosper in all things wherever thou goest.)

The book of this law depart not from thy mouth, but thou shalt think therein in days and nights, that thou keep and do all things that be written therein; then thou shalt (ad)dress thy way, and thou shalt understand it. (Let not this Book of the Law depart from thy mouth, but think thou on it day and night, so that thou obey and do all the things that be written in it; then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and be successful.)

Lo! I command to thee; be thou comforted, and be thou strong; do not thou dread, nor be thou afeared; for thy Lord God is with thee in all things, to which thou goest. (Lo! I command thee; be thou encouraged, and be thou strong; do not thou fear, nor be thou afraid; for the Lord thy God is with thee in all things, to which thou goest.)

You have to proclaim God’s promises. Keep recalling it; keep revisiting it; keep focussed on it.

God’s promise and presence go together.

10 Dec 2022 Sermon – A remnant still remains

Audio sermon

Dear Beloved,

 

The Lord is your strength and your shield. Looking back in my life I see that there are many things the Lord has done for me.

I thank you O Lord!

God says- I have carved you on the palm of my hands and I will carry you to the end of ages.

It’s all about the goodness of the Lord, his mercy and enduring kindness. Where would we be if for not for the mercies of God, we would have been swallowed and destroyed. But we are alive and standing strong in Lord. We thank God!

FOCUS is very important. As preached in 26 Nov Sermon, like Nehemiah learn to focus on God and his Kingdom business. The year 2023 is going to be great , if your focus is on the Great I AM

God will finish what he has begun

Philippians 1:4-6

Whenever I pray, I make my requests for all of you with joy, for you have been my partners in spreading the Good News about Christ from the time you first heard it until now. And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns.

Focus, Focus to not be distracted or be slackened – but Focus to be in partnership with God. It is very important for every believer to partner with kingdom of God.

God is not slack concerning his promises. He has already moved ahead and finished it. It is you who has to focus and match with God’s pace.

2023 will be roller -coaster but not for thiose who focus on God and they will be accelerated  to go faster as they keep pace with God and saty focussed on Great I AM

Philippians 3:14

 I press on to reach the end of the race and receive the heavenly prize for which God, through Christ Jesus, is calling us.

Sermon message:  A remnant still remains

[Meditate on SImeon and Anna from Luke 2]

25 Now there was a man in Jerusalem called Simeon, who was righteous and devout. He was waiting for the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was on him. 26 It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he would not die before he had seen the Lord’s Messiah. 27 Moved by the Spirit, he went into the temple courts. When the parents brought in the child Jesus to do for him what the custom of the Law required, 28 Simeon took him in his arms and praised God, saying:

29 “Sovereign Lord, as you have promised,     you may now dismiss[d] your servant in peace. 3For my eyes have seen your salvation, 31     which you have prepared in the sight of all nations: 32 a light for revelation to the Gentiles,     and the glory of your people Israel.”

33 The child’s father and mother marveled at what was said about him. 34 Then Simeon blessed them and said to Mary, his mother: “This child is destined to cause the falling and rising of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be spoken against, 35 so that the thoughts of many hearts will be revealed. And a sword will pierce your own soul too.”

36 There was also a prophet, Anna, the daughter of Penuel, of the tribe of Asher. She was very old; she had lived with her husband seven years after her marriage, 37 and then was a widow until she was eighty-four.[e] She never left the temple but worshiped night and day, fasting and praying. 38 Coming up to them at that very moment, she gave thanks to God and spoke about the child to all who were looking forward to the redemption of Jerusalem.

Isaiah 49:13

Sing for joy, O heavens!
    Rejoice, O earth!
    Burst into song, O mountains!
For the Lord has comforted his people
    and will have compassion on them in their suffering.

Isaiah 52:9

Let the ruins of Jerusalem break into joyful song,
    for the Lord has comforted his people.
    He has redeemed Jerusalem.

Isaiah 66:13

I will comfort you there in Jerusalem     as a mother comforts her child.”

We are the remnant of God in this moment waiting for the King’s return ,for the rapture. Let us declare his redemption and salvation message boldly to one and all. Be Blessed. Amen!

03 Dec 2022 Sermon – True worship

Audio Sermon

 

Dear Beloved,

Let all the other things fade away… Jesus take your place

|Continue to worship. There is a turnaround..

We have free access into Heavenly realm.

Lord- we dont want to have any part of anything that is not from you. Increase our hunger and desire for you Lord.

God is with us and has opened our ears to hear his voice and eyes to see Him. When God speaks there is always a scripture to back it up.

John 10:27  My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

Message – True worship

Worship is extravagant love and extreme  submission to the Lord

Romans 12:1

 I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.

You are worshipping God for who He is and not for what he does for you. Whether you say it or not ,He is God and he remains God.

John 4:23

23 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

God will single you out for his blessings

Genesis 18:17-19

Should I hide my plan from Abraham?” the Lord asked. 18 “For Abraham will certainly become a great and mighty nation, and all the nations of the earth will be blessed through him. 1I have singled him out so that he will direct his sons and their families to keep the way of the Lord by doing what is right and just. Then I will do for Abraham all that I have promised.”

In your job, in your family , in your school , in your neighborhood , and wherever you are.

You are not part of recession and there is abrook for you

Meditate on these characters that God has singled out (set apart) in the Bible for his blessings;

Moses – Numbers 12:6-8

Apostle John – The beloved

1 Samuel 13:14- David

Luke 4 – The woman of Zarepath in the Famine, and Naaman for the healing

Esther – singled out
