23 Mar You Are Blessed By The Lord
Deacon Hui Zhen - 8 May 2014
Make Every Effort To Enter Through The Narrow Door
A genuine Christian faith is a faith that leads you to think, acting and living out the truth you know. Unless one is born again, it is impossible for her to walk the path of following God. A born again Christian who walks through the narrow door is one who believes in Jesus is the only Way, Truth and the Life and she is absolute in her belief. She is also one who restores the right value of life, knowing that the world is transient and put her heart in pursuing the matters of the kingdom. As the world is always a delusion, to fight the daily spiritual battles she has to restore the right perspective of herself, i.e. identity of Child of God and the Promises of God that follows her come what may. May God tears down the falsehood that lingers in our lives and restore in us us the desire and willingness to live out the truth we know, and lead a life of entering through the narrow door.

“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
