19 Apr Holy Saturday 2022: The Debt
Pastor Vincent - 10 October 2013
Follow The Lord's Instruction Closely In Spiritual Battle
It is human nature to worry about tomorrow. What if I can't do this, what if things don't work well tomorrow.. what if we often let what has yet to happen to rob away our present happiness in Lord. Before Jericho, the Lord said to Joshua, " See, I have delivered Jericho into your hands, along with its king and its fighting men.." God is always there, He is always present in your sadness, your current helplessness, your current family problem, relationship problems and even your insufficiency. But we often forget, we are often being frightened by what have yet to comeÉ the what if's in your mind - Satan is always instilling the fear, the deceptions and confuse our spirits so that we cannot look at the truth of God and draw strength from it. Behind the problem we are seeing everyday is actually the deeper spiritual battles that we need to fight against Satan - who is attacking us in every possible way just to divert us away from God's truth so that we feel the gospel irrelevant. But God has a precise instruction to our problems now, so that we can stand against the devil's scheme. Be in sync with God, hear what the Lord says and follow it carefully. As we wait upon the Lord and see what He is doing right now in our lives, we will then not be distracted by Satan into following our own desires and emotions. The Lord is not slow in fulfilling His promise and He has time for everything, therefore, go into prayer and ask God to reveal the very next thing we can do while waiting for His timetable. As we develop the instinct to hear Him through prayers, our faithful God will not hide from you and when the perfect time comes, your Jericho will be conquered, as you become more intimate with God.

A Debt always has to be paid back
But what if it is a Moral Debt?
There is a DEBT which all men have owed God.
* For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God. <Ro 3:23>
Man has invented his own ways to pay back his moral debts toward the Holy God.
Yet what is the repayment demanded by the Holy God?
1) No man can pay back the moral debt against God
2) God sent His Son, Jesus to pay for the debt of our sins
* God made him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God <2 Cor 5:21>.
* For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect <1 Peter 1:18-19>.
* It was impossible for death to keep its hold on him <Acts 2:24>.
* For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord <Ro 6:23>.
Salvation for all who repent of their sin and put their faith in Jesus.
* For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. <Jn 3:16>.
* And Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved <Acts 4:12>.
