Blessed With The Excellent And The Plenty by Joseph Prince

Blessed With The Excellent And The Plenty by Joseph Prince

Deuteronomy 28:4
4“Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks.

Would you want to buy a chair that Jesus made? I would, even if it cost US$1,000 because it would be of superb quality. Whatever Jesus did, He did it with perfect excellence.

And because Christ is in you, the things which you produce will be of exceptional quality too. That includes your children, who will be champions. Deuteronomy 28:4 says, “Blessed shall be the fruit of your body, the produce of your ground and the increase of your herds, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flocks”.

God was using terms that the Israelites understood since they were farmers and shepherds. Today, “your ground” is the place of your work. This means that “the produce” of your work shall be of excellent quality.

That is not all. God promises that quantity will always follow quality because Deuteronomy 28:11 says that the Lord will “grant you plenty of goods, in the fruit of your body,” which means that you will have plenty of children, “in the increase of your livestock, and in the produce of your ground,” which means that your business will flourish and you will be a leading producer in the area of your specialty.

My friend, your excellence and plenty do not come by your efforts. They come by the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, who paid for your prosperity — “though He was rich, yet for your sakes He became poor, that you through His poverty might become rich”. (2 Corinthians 8:9)

Jesus was made destitute of all material things at the cross. He had nothing! As He hung on the cross, He watched the Roman soldiers gamble for His robe. His last possession on earth was gambled away. He became poor, so that you could be blessed with the excellent and the plenty!

Accept Jesus as Your Saviour while You Still Can.

We had a dinner with my Buddhist,Chinese colleague last Friday and in between our conversation,
We somehow unintentionally touched a very sensitive topic. -- "Death".

Our other colleague's younger brother died while sleeping. While her deceased husband dropped died while having a vacation in his homeland China.

Both we're in good shape.

Then I told her,

"Yes. Death can happen to anyone, anywhere. Even while you're sleeping. That's why , you better make sure, you accept Jesus as your Savior first before letting go of your last breath because we don't know what's on the other side. Hell or Heaven may be true or not true but who cares.
The Bible says, Jesus saves our soul so for the last time, why not make that decision. It's FREE to accept Him anyway."

Then she replied," yeah true ah? Yes. I will do that. "

I didn't know why I told her that casually. I didn't mean of scaring her off actually. Hahah!

But well, at least, I gave her some options.

:)

By the way, I'm on my way to New Creation now. Gona serve my church at the last service. I am serving Video ministry handling Camera 4. Wooot! It's getting more and more exciting for me. Yeeeheeeeey!

Thank you Jesus for this new and awesome life!

Sooooo lovin' it!

Creation Can’t But Redemption Can! by Joseph Prince

Happy blessed Sunday everyone!
:)


Creation Can’t But Redemption Can! by Joseph Prince

John 9:7
7And He said to him, “Go, wash in the pool of Siloam” (which is translated, Sent). So he went and washed, and came back seeing.

When Adam sinned and fell, everything about creation fell. Yet, people today are still putting their trust in creation. For example, they try to become healthy by eating what is called the “Eden diet” — vegetables and no meat. They are acting as if creation did not fall. They also forget that there are people who eat well and exercise regularly, and still drop dead in the prime of their lives!

Thank God that what creation cannot do, redemption can and did. Jesus demonstrated this when He spat on the ground, made clay with the saliva and put it on a blind man’s eyes. (John 9:6–7) Now, it is certainly unusual to put clay on a blind man’s eyes because he would become doubly blind!

So why did Jesus do that?

He was demonstrating to us that all our body parts come from the ground and that because creation is fallen, the work of creation cannot open a blind man’s eyes. But the work of redemption can! That is why He sent the blind man to the pool of Siloam. The word “Siloam” means “Sent”, referring to the sent one, Jesus. When the blind man washed his eyes in the pool of the sent one, he received supernatural healing for his eyes.

Beloved, when we go to Jesus, the sent one who came to redeem us with the price of His blood, and we rest in His finished work, we will receive the miracle we need. If we believe that by His stripes we are healed (Isaiah 53:5), we will have greater health than those who trust in creation.

Jesus was sent to redeem us from every curse that came upon creation with the fall of Adam. (Galatians 3:13) He has redeemed us from sickness, pain, sorrow, depression, poverty and even death. The world may know Him as the Creator. But today, we know Him as our Redeemer. Where the work of creation cannot save us, His work of redemption can and has!
