God Is Worthy To Be Praised

All English Service

How are you looking at yourself today? As a child of God, redeemed by God with a heavy price through the Holy Son Jesus Christ, do we still often look at ourselves through our naked eyes and feelings that fluctuate today? When Zechariah's heart started to grow cold towards the promise of God because of the many unfulfilled prayers, God was still faithful and preparing the greatest blessing for him that transcended all his physical conditions - a blessed son, John the baptist. Like Zechariah, we also often lose hope in God in various circumstances, for we are always deceived into seeing ourselves outside the covenant, and narrow-mindedly, when God is still working mightily at the background to carry His perfect will to completion through our conditions. Despite our narrow-mindedness, Holy spirits is still empowering us both strongly and passively so that we will not lose faith. If we start to pray according to the truth today, we will be guided by the Holy Spirit again to look at ourselves through the lens of God and His covenant, instead of our micro circles of thoughts, emotions and desires today. Indeed God is worthy to be praised, not only "did He rescue us from the hand of our enemies, He also enables us to serve him without fear in holiness and righteousness before Him all our days.”

Are we prepared to be different?

  • Consecrated: Be separate/different.
  • Do we dare to be different?
  • More than the danger, see the wisdom and privilege to be different.
  • <1 Th 5> 5 You are all children of the lightand children of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. 6 So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be awake and sober.
  • Would we rather be socially acceptable, or God-acceptable?
  • Remember that we are “strangers on earth”.
  • <Prov 29:25> “Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts in the Lord is kept safe.”
  • Opposite of consecration: Typical

 

Consecration is not a one-time resolution but a lifetime lifestyle

<1 Th 4> 1 As for other matters, brothers and sisters, we instructed you how to live in order to please God, as in fact you are living. Now we ask you and urge you in the Lord Jesus to do this more and more.

2 For you know what instructions we gave you by the authority of the Lord Jesus.

3 It is God’s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; 4 that each of you should learn to control your own body in a way that is holy and honorable, 5 not in passionate lust like the pagans, who do not know God; 6 and that in this matter no one should wrong or take advantage of a brother or sister. The Lord will punish all those who commit such sins, as we told you and warned you before. 7 For God did not call us to be impure, but to live a holy life. 8 Therefore, anyone who rejects this instruction does not reject a human being but God, the very God who gives you his Holy Spirit.

  • Resolution >> holy lifestyle, whole person >> rewards
  • Private >> public consecration
  • Consecrated ‘daily schedule’.
  • Consecrated ‘divine timing’.
  • Consecrated ‘waiting time’.

 

Consecrated serving

  • When consecrated believers serve, then can impact the world.
  • Serve like it is a privilege, not a chore.
  • Aim to be consecrated for noble purposes.
  • The more consecrated, the more anointing.
