-Pst. Kong Hee
No Shortage in God
Recall the following:
Your relationship with money
1. Money is not Evil
2. Money takes after your Personality
3. Money is your Life
4. Money makes you Omnipresent like God
Acts 1:8
"Power'' = dunamic (Gk.) which means ability
God has given us the ability to do greater works than Jesus did
Both = simultaneously
Deut 8:17-18
Established = working
We need to work to obtain our blessings in life
Gen 12:1-2
We need to be a blessing!
Prosperity is a state of mind
Gen 39:2-31
Joseph was entrusted with all the business dealings
There is never scarcity or lack in this world!
Prosperity starts from your mind
2 Cor 8:12
1. Pledge with a right Attitude
2. Pledge out of something you know you Have
3. Pledge an amount that Touches you deeply
Ps 126:5-6

22/10/2006 : Finding your God's purpose in the Secular
- Pst. Kong Hee
Everything in life has a purpose
Eccl 3:11
I have a responsibility to find my purpose in life
If you only look for the supernatural in the spectacular, you will miss God
It is often in the world, in the secular, that you find God's purpose for our lives
Gen 2:15
Tend & keep: giving order to the world
Gen 2:19
God want an intelligent relationship between Him & Adam
Cattle: 12 species
Birds: 2,000 species
Beasts: 2 million species
Fishes: now a fisherman!
Adam's job just keep growing!
Then from a OMO: One man operation it became a family business! Eve & his family came about!
Gen 1:26-28
Adam was working in the world! From an entry-level farmer to the CEO of the world!
Gen 11:26
Abraham's talent: being a good father
Terah: to wait - slow character yet Abram honor his father
Abraham cared for Lot, his servants so much that his servants are willing to die for him & to fight for him
Gen 17:1;5
Joseph: entranced in the world
His talent? Interpret dreams; a problem-solver!
Gen 41:37-43
Egypt: world
Joseph is engaged into the world! He is also a hero of faith!
Heb 11
Gen 45:1-2
Joseph wasn't crying because he miss his family but because for the 1st time he discovered his purpose in life
Gen 45:4-8
1. Save his nation
2. Build his country
3. Preservation of Israel: lineage of Abraham -> 37 generations later, the Messiah is born!
Consider Moses!
His talent: a love for justice! But not matured yet
During his job as a shepherd: he saw how the desert nomads worship their idols; he also learned how to care for 3 million Israelites!
Esther? Only talent: pretty la!
Est 2:10
Matt 23:2-8;11
In the marketplace: you served! Not declare yourself as some leader of a religious institution?!?
Est 4:10-14
There was a plot brewing to destroy the Jews & the queen was dethroned!
But Esther stood up, being only a pretty girl (the whole time she only learned how to beautify herself), & the happiest festival in the Jewish community: The Feast of Purim is in celebration of Esther! She saved the nation!
Gal 2:11-13
Peter was a raciest!
Yet world mission was born in Peter's visit to Cornelius house! Because of his realization of his need to repent!
Stop separating the spiritual from the secular!
Enlightenment era: 200 yrs ago
Our God is not just the God of His believers but God of the entire world!
Arise & build is not about building a building but to build our lives! Our purpose, our roles, our conviction, our responsibility, etc.

01/10/2006 : Encounter With Destiny
-Pst. Kong Hee
Encounter With Destiny
Lk 5:1-2
To the people by the shore, it's only 2 empty boats, but not to Jesus. He is always looking at the situation with faith
Nets were being washed: Fishermen trying to maintain their livelihood
Like the nets, our lives are tattered & torn
But the fishermen have no idea that Jesus is going to give them an encounter with their destiny
Lk 5:3-4
Jesus spoke! The fishermen are going to hear Him & be changed into fishers of men
Importance of hearing God: prayers - communication
Sometimes we'll feel dissatisfied with our lives as the vision that God gives us is bigger! Do not be afraid! Do not back down!
Matt 22:35-40
Loving God wholeheartedly
Loving people fervently
Rom 5:8
Jh 3:16
Soul-winning is primary!
Doing God's work
What are you hearing today?
1. The voice of Criticism
People will put you down, but you're made in God's likeness!
2. The voice of Doubt
Circumstances can be intimidating but you have God!
3. The voice of Selfishness
To get, you need to give!
To receive, you need to share
4. The voice of Limitation
God is of no limitation!
5. The voice of Faith
God can prosper you!
We have unlimited possibilities with God!
Let down our nets!
Lk 5:5
There's no victory without a fight!
Don't be battle-weary! You just might miss the miracle catch!
Discouragement is not dissatisfaction
Do not be ready to give up!
Simply be dissatisfied!
Let down our financial nets!
