Weekend Service with Dr. Niko Nijotorahardjo
Jesus really loves each & everyone of us
No matter what happens to us, He is always with us
Jh 10:10
Remember that Jesus wants to give us a life more abundance
Year 2010 is a year of restoration & abundance
What does Jesus meant by abundance?
a. Be alive in the Spirit
Salvation from our fallen nature
Jesus will be back soon so we must be ready
God will pour out His spirit
Job 2:28-32
Act 2:17
God will shake heaven & earth for us
Do the following 2 things
1. Lift our praise & thanksgiving to God
Heb 12
2. Serve Him in an honourable way
b. Material wealth
What kind of attitude do we need to build a great house of God?
We need to give & sacrifice
Restoration is about giving you things that was taken away from you
We need to obey the leading & guidance of the Lord
God will lead us personally

24/01/2010 : The Power of Sacrifice
-Pst. Kong Hee
The Power of Sacrifice
Abel: Faith is a Sacrifice
Gen 4:1-5a; Heb 11:4
Prayer
Fasting
Giving
Sacrifice
Faith lies in our power of giving
Abel learn about faith through his father - Adam
Adam was covered by a lamb's skin by God after he sinned
Thus Abel know what is of value to God - a lamb
Abel gave an excellent sacrifice - God called it faith
Cain who couldn't gave a blood sacrifice turned into a bloody murderer
Abraham: Love is a Sacrifice
Gen 22;1-5, 11-14, 16-18
Abraham was tested but God didn't set out to fail him
God is a good teacher & thus He doesn't set out to fail His people
The first time LOVE was mentioned in the bible was for a sacrifice
Moriah - a place of vision
God wants Abraham to have a vision when he sacrifices
We need to know that our blessings is not due to luck
Through the sacrifice, Abraham comes to know that God is a Provider
We need to know that it's not in God's character to take but to give
David: Worship is a Sacrifice
1 Chr 21:22-24; 22:1,5,14; 29:1-4,16
David on the exact same site, Moriah, as Abraham also has a vision - to build a great a temple for God
Just like important people around the world has magnificent residences so does our almighty God
David gave from all his might - he prepared for eons!
David know that he is only a steward- a treasurer, manager & re-distributor
Jesus Christ: Salvation is a Sacrifice
Heb 12:2
Moriah is now the place of Calvary
To have breakthroughs in our lives- we need to sacrifice

10/01/2010 : Vision that Enlarges You
-Pst. Tan Ye Peng
Vision that Enlarges You
Hab 2:1-2
Stop thinking about how to make ends meet - God will give us more
1. God speaks to us through visions
Rather than voices
Don't keep thinking about your visions in the past
If God gives you the visions, He'll also gives you the provisions to make the vision happens
All the great men in the bible had visions about their destiny
Jhn 5:19
Most people don't hang onto their visions beyond a few months
Jos 1:7-8
We need to move into our dreams & stay focused
1. Pray & fast
2. Speak about it
3. Act upon it
2. Set yourself in a right place to receive the vision
The first 5-15min of our prayer life is usually filled with the clutter of life thus we need to pray beyond 15mins
Imagination is more important than knowledge - Albert Einstein
3. God's vision will enlarge you
We always need to write down the visions otherwise it'll not come to pass
A small man is made up of small thoughts - Victor Hugo
Gen 9:27
Exo 34:23-24
1 Chro 4:10
Isa 54:2
Without a visions, believers will start living a careless life - people shall perish
Act 2:17
Don't ever lose your visions
When leaders are unwilling to dream, followers will be unwilling to follow -Andy Stanley
Most people don't succeed not because they don't have visions but because they want to achieve different results with the same actions
Unsuccessful people focused in survival
Average people focused on maintenance
Successful people focused in progress
-John C Maxwell
1. Enlarge our thinking
Eph 3:20
Abraham - a nation was born out of him
Noah - saviour of the animal & mankind
Moses - deliverer of the nation
Peter - healer of thousands
David - deliverer of a failing war & his songs were forever sing
Paul - all his little letters became the holy scriptures
God always have bigger dreams for you
2. Enlarge yourself personally
We are always making choices in life thus we need to also make choices in the following areas of our lives
a. Leadership - not laws but liberty
Gal 5:13
Freedom to express ourselves
b. Serving - not hierarchy but heart
Mat 20:25-28
c. Ability - not self- centered but Spirit- centered
Zach 4:6
2 Cor 12:9
d. Discipline - not legalism but love
e. Creativity - not fear but faith
2 Tim 1:6-7
f. Love - not love but care
g. Work - not duty but devotion
Phil 2:20-21
Exo 17:12
h. Attitude - not getting but giving
i. Lifestyle - not explanation but example
Jhn 13:13-15
2 Thess 3:7-9
Result: not bondage but breakthrough

03/01/2010 : See, I'm doing a new thing!
-Pst. Tan Ye Peng
See, I'm doing a new thing!
Isa 43:18-21
How should we move on the new year?
1. Forget the former things
Isa 43:18
Margaret Court - to hit a ball back, we always need to put a foot forward
Isa 43:16-17
Phil 3:13-14
Paul says we need to forget about the past (even our achievements) & press forward
The story of the sprinters:
Usain Bolt was running so fast that Wallace Spearman was distracted & shifted to another person's lane
People are attached to their past
40% embarrassments & mistakes
30% always worrying
12% things that hurt them
10% worry about health
8% thinks positively & creatively
2 Cor 5:17
All things have become new
2. Get a vision of new things from God Isa 43:19
This statement was said when the children of Israel was held captive - this shows that God never give up on His people even when they're at their end
Lazarus was dead for 4 days not merely very ill or dead for only a short while & could be revived easily. But Jesus is still able to resurrect him
Jhn 1:16-17
Zec 4:6-7
God's grace for the common grace
We can do common grace stuff nut with new grace we can do new stuff
All throughout the bible - God kept giving new things to His people
Isa 43:20
People around us will benefit from our blessings when it overflows out of our lives
a. Think positive thoughts
Learn to set SMARTER Goals -
Specific
Measurable
Action Plan
Realistic
Time Conscious
Expectation Management
Revelation
b. Visualize the Dream
c. Believe in God's Promised
d. Speak Out the Visions
Prayer will build up our faith as faith tends to leak as time passes - the Rhema that was given to us will bring us great faith & we need to consistently build it & protect it
Because Time is in God's hand - Abraham lifted himself throughout the entire 25yrs when he waited for his son to come
He also build himself & his character during that waiting
3. Give Thanks & Praise Continually to God
Isa 43:21
