23 Mar You Are Blessed By The Lord
Preacher Huijun - 26 June 2014
Receive Added Grace By Responding To God-Given Grace
Salvation is God-driven, it is God who chose us before the creation of the world and personally revealed Himself to us so that we can hear and believe in the truth. However, sometimes, we tend to compromise with our flesh, thinking that since God is the one who saves us, there's nothing we need to do anymore because God will do all. While God's love to us is irrevocable, to enjoy this grace and anointing from God to the fullest, children of God need to participate in this relationship by reciprocating (obeying) to God, completing the whole course of our faith and enjoy added grace. Through the message today, may we see the Eli in us (although the truth was made known to him, he remained indifferent and did not take the word seriously) and trigger the desire in us to want to be like Samuel (believe and ready to obey) more and more in each day of our lives.

“Blessed by God”, yet our circumstances do not seem to match this? What is the definition of “blessing”? How would a child of God be blessed? The truth is, believers of Jesus are indeed blessed, yet whenever we lose the assurance of Immanuel (God with us), we will lose the joy and power that we should rightfully enjoy. Though God’s blessings also include outward tangible ones, we cannot simply define divine blessings by those. Trials and divine discipline are also God’s ways of blessing and loving us. Through this sermon, let us confirm God’s blessings once again.
Verses to Read: <Gen 26:1-6; 12-16; 19-29>
1. Though blessed by God, we are still weak.
1) Problem: Lose assurance of Immanuel (God with us).
2) Good news: God came to seek the lost sinner.
2. Blessed people surely have blessed evidences.
1) Outward evidences <v12-14>
2) God’s assured promises <v3-4>
3) Sure and quick consequences when commit sins <v7-10>
4) Trials
3. Response of a blessed person.
1) Forgive
2) Give in
3) Set apart
