Spiritual Life @ New Creation Church

Today will be my first cell meeting and it so happen to be a cell outing, dinner and board games at Mind’s Café. New Creation’s young singles working adult care groups operates slightly different from OneLife, basically we will have care group meetings twice a month and arrow service twice a month. New Creation Church’s definition of young adult is below 29 sorry for those above 29

I’m so used to having cell meetings on every Friday and now its been cut to twice a month therefore I need to get use to it but I don’t foresee any problem of adjusting to the new arrangements. I now know the true meaning of the “Heart Of Worship” last Sunday as usual unable get into the auditorium because I was late. I then proceed to the overflowing room now what I want to emphasis is it doesn’t matter where you are it’s the heart that counts and God sees our hearts.

I felt the presences of the Lord even when I’m in the overflowing room, I was worshiping the Lord and I could care less of surroundings when the worship team played the song “Magnificent” I do not why I just fell on my knees and worshiped the Lord and I cried. I have not had this experience for a very long time. The teachings of New Creation lets me look at the Christian faith from the angle of Grace.

I know there are controversial issues issues of the doctrine of Grace but we should asks ourselves are we able to avoid sining by our own efforts? The answer is no and this is because of our sinful nature and our sinful nature sends negative singles to our brains and it causes us to be rebellious thus leading to sin against God. However we can make a difference when we look upon the finished work our Lord Jesus Christ on the cross more than 2000 years ago at 1500 hours. Jesus Christ gave up His Spirit and declared “It is finished”

Yes it is finished therefore we are no longer under law of God instead we are under grace of God. The day we repent and give our lives to Jesus is the day we are set free from the law and received the grace of God. No doubt we are under the grace of God but that does not give us the privilege to fall to the lust of this world to let it temp or control us.

However the good news is when we are under grace we will be connected to God and we will naturally seek after His Kingdom as time goes by well God made mankind this way we at some point of our lives we feel the need of spiritual connection be it whether you are a Christian or not. Lastly we being his children we inherit His righteous and that will keep us away from SIN and that is our goal so we must stop relying on our owe efforts instead we should rely on Him and accept His Grace Amen!
