23 Mar You Are Blessed By The Lord
Preacher Huijun - 16 January 2014
Winning Formula Vs Recipe For Failure
Many times, we often live in disheartenment. We get defeated by situations, information and thoughts about things yet to come. The truth is, we do not need to wait for things to become better, bad news to subside and good feelings to come before we feel good and victorious. In Christ, we are already victorious. When we believe right, Holy Spirit will lead us into doing the right thing and the outcomes will surely be right! How often do we go back to the truth in this world that constantly engulf our faith in Christ? Today, restore the 5 Solas (Only) of a believer. When you hold onto Sola Scriptura (Only Bible), Solus Christus (Only Christ), Sola Fide (Only Faith) , Sola Gratia (Only grace), and Soli Deo Gloria (All glory to God alone), victory is not an outcome but a state of our living. For whoever wants to save their life will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me will find it. [Mt 16:25] Paradox it may seem, yet such is the power of Holy Spirit, and everyone who believes in Him will never be ashamed. You are already victorious in Christ. Cling onto the right anchor point today!

“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
