A Blessed Spirit, A Surpassing Heart
God's love to us has never decreased, and it will never change. However, our spirits are often incompatible with God's loving heart to us because we often gauge how blessed we are according to our actions, serving, attitude in life and external conditions. Through the Sermon on the Mount, Lord Jesus emphasised that it is not what man has on the outside nor their actions that win their election and blessings in Christ, rather, it's God's deliberate revelation to His chosen ones who possess the 8 beatitudes that make them the blessed people on earth, because they are called children of God - greatly loved, greatly blessed and greatly used by God. In all things, God is most pleased with our hearts of seeking Him, loving Him and submitting to Him in our existing conditions and existing level of faith. The heart of needing-God is what that drives Holy Spirit to continuously convict God's children in all areas of lives, enabling them not only fulfilling the laws and decrees but surpassing them.

Verses to Read
<Acts 1:6-8; 2:46-47>
1. The Gospel
* Misunderstanding the Gospel = Misunderstanding the Work of the Holy Spirit.
* The Holy Spirit will not be satisfied when the gospel is not being fully, clearly and boldly proclaimed through the church.
* The Gospel is the power of God for the salvation for all those who believes <Ro 1:16>. Yet, what is believing faith?
2. The Vision of World Evangelization
* Many Churches/believers are curtailed by the difficulties and challenges.
* Yet, it is by the Persistence and Resolution of the Holy Spirit that it will be accomplished.
* Therefore, join Him in His work.
3. The Communion of Saints
* Need for physical gathering of Saints:
(1) Mature Love = receiving and serving
(2) Deepening of Relationship involve sacrifices of time and energy
(3) Accountability
