God Offers a Better Deal

Rev Yew Nieng Song

Hebrews 3:1-4,7: My Christian brothers, who also have been called by God! Think of Jesus, whom God sent to be the High Priest of the faith we profess. He was faithful to God, who chose him to do his work, just as Moses was faithful in his work in God's house. A man who builds a house receives more honour than the house itself. In the same way Jesus is worthy of much greater honour than Moses. Every house, of course, is built by someone- and God is the one who has built all things.

So then, as the Holy Spirit says,
"If you hear God's voice today"

*Revival is dangerous- cause us to give up our own ways
                                 -your time is not your time but God's time
*God is offering something much better
*Lead by the Spirit = children of God
*We are Christians but not leading things that are discern by God
*we are using carnal man to interpret life
*God did not answer our prayer - God is trying to get our attention
                                                  - work contrary to God
*Changing progressively into Jesus Christ
*If blessings are not coming in the right way, ask God if there is something wrong
*Do you know what it means to be a Christian?
*Seek God's will to know what is your destiny
*Galatians 2:14: When I saw that they were not walking a straight path in line with the truth of the gospel, I said to Peter in front of them all, "You are a Jew, yet you have been living like a Gentile, not like a Jew. How, then, can you try to force Gentiles to live like Jews?"

*God is the way, close other doors
*Jesus mission statement 'It is not complicated'
*Kingdom of God, darkness & man -those are the things we often struggle
*but Jesus is more superior
*Jesus is the message, angels are the messenger
*Church- Your at the centre
*He has an appointment here with us
*He is calling us at every church service
*You need to follow God's ways
*Do not be conform to this world but be transform by the renewing of the mind
*Many of us are settle in a comfortable life getting blessings from the church
*Hebrews author says there are things that hinder us knowing the word of God
*We are not recieving the healing of God, but we are to claim the promises of God
*We need faith to remain in that wholeness
*Hebrews - book of better things - things that rust and moth cannot destroy
*If everyone does the work of God, this adds on to revival
*We will not be in heaven forever because a new earth and heaven will be here on earth (read the book of revelation, the last book).
*So do good now to collect back the blessings soon
*Who are you living for?
*Many of us miss the mark and are living in the flesh - thats why we have many problems
*"Now the new way has come, Christ is the better way"
*We have the word of God as the light to our feet
*If a wive does not submit to husband, children will be argueing with you
*Thats why repentence are needed
*Author of Hebrews concludes with greetings
*It is a privilege to serve the most high God
*We are serving to the best
*God has better things to plan for our church
*Then, read the bible first
*Learn to give tithes
*Who knows you? If you know God knows you, he will bless you.
*Learn to let go off the good things and grab hold of the things God wants you to have instead.


**Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path**
