TOPIC: AMAZING TRANSFORMATION THROUGH GOD'S AMAZING GRACE.
TEXT: TITUS 2:11-14.
Everybody praises the Lord. The Lord has blessed you. The Lord has a lot waiting for you tonight, by faith, by mercy, it will happen to you tonight. Today, we are talking about amazing grace, amazing grace coming upon your life tonight. Everything we receive is by Grace. Anywhere you are, the grace of God bringing salvation, bringing everything Christ died for on the Cross of Calvary it is the grace of God that brings that to you, and it is appear to everyone, when the grace of God comes, it will not leaves you in the filthiness of the past, we don't need grace to remain in sin, but when the grace of God comes to you, it teaches you that you deny ungodliness and it teaches you to live soberly and righteously in this present world. There are people who will say they are tormented and sinful, and yet they praise the Lord. It is when the grace of God comes in your life and it teaches you how to live godly life, then you can praise the Lord. The grace makes us live righteously, soberly in this present world. Salvation comes to change our lives, it doesn't makes us happy in defilement, salvation turns unrighteous people to righteous, it takes the lust away in them because they are new creature in Christ, and the grace has brought evidence of Salvation in them. Jesus went through agony on the Cross of Calvary, He gave up His glory in heaven, and He came to this world to give Himself for us that He might redeem us from all iniquity. The grace of God has appeared unto all men, teaching us to deny ungodliness, and we live soberly in this present world because Jesus gave Himself for us that He might redeem us from all iniquity.
POINT ONE: SO GREAT SALVATION PROVIDED FOR YOU AND FOR ALL
HEBREWS 2:3-4; 1 TIMOTHY 1:12-16; GALATIANS 1:15-16,23-24.
He died on cross of Calvary so that He might save you. Salvation was provided by the sacrifice of Christ. How shall we escape all the torture of hell fire if we neglect so great salvation? You will not neglect so great salvation, we didn't come to crusade for entertainment and jubilation, the reason why we have GCK is so that we have so great Salvation. That great salvation that saves us from sin and turns our lives around is for you. The grace of God keeps past things in the past. The grace of God keeps all the iniquity in the past. If you come to GCK and you're still stealing and lying, there's no Salvation there. If you're still injuring people like you're doing before, there's no salvation. But when Salvation comes, you will not be living in the old past of sinfulness. If you're still in the lifestyle of retaliation, there's no Salvation there. That retaliation shows you're not born again. When we are born again, life changes and turns around. You will obtain mercy today IN Jesus' Name. Before you came, you were ignorant of the judgement of God for those who steals, if they die in that condition, they will go to hell fire forever, but now you're no more ignorant. When Paul met Jesus, he became saved, and he was no more ignorant. If you go to adultery and fornication, you are ignorant. You need to confess and forsake your sins so that the grace that brings Salvation will be effective in your life. The grace of God comes into our lives and turns our lives around. Tonight is your night, and the grace of God will give you great transformation. The Lord has called you by His grace, not by merit. If you're going by merit and money, you can never buy salvation. Salvation is so heavenly that earthly resources can not buy salvation. Salvation is by Grace, and you need to come through grace of God so that you will have salvation that is provided by the Lord. You must possess salvation and then proclaim salvation among the heathen. This is your chance to be saved, and today, immediately you will be saved. When salvation comes in your life, life turns around, the past sins are gone, and you're set free, and the past evil habit has gone away because a great transformation has happened. As you get saved, the people will glorify God in you.
POINT TWO: SO GREAT HEALING THEN, NOW, AND ALWAYS.
LUKE 7:21-23; ACTS 5:14-16; JAMES 5:15-20.
What Christ did, by His stripes we are healed. Christ didn't save us just to come to church, but ultimately, finally, He saved us so as to get us to heaven. All those five thousands people Jesus gave miracle bread, if that food sustain them and they get to heaven, that's good, but if it did not give them the spiritual bread to get to heaven, the eating of the bread will be temporary, if they don't get to heaven, they will get to hell. What's the use if you eat miracle bread and you don't get to heaven? Christ came to take people out of their sins and to get them to heaven. Every healing that Christ did is so great and marvellous that people were amazed, and today He brings that kind of healing and deliverance in your life. That same power of Christ will heal you tonight IN Jesus' Name. It happened then. It happens now. In your life, it happens now, everywhere as we are connected together, it happens now and always. You will get your miracle because it happened then, it is happening now and it will always happen. The prayer of Faith shall heal the sick. Tonight, we are praying a prayer of faith, not a prayer of Thomas and doubting, and that prayer of Faith will heal you and set you free. Tonight, Jesus does it always, and the Lord will raise you up. If you have committed sin, as you repent, tonight He will forgive you, and then He will heal your sick body, and that prayer of faith will heal you tonight, and you will have a great healing
POINT THREE: SO GREAT HEAVEN PREPARED BY THE ALMIGHTY.
1 CORINTHIANS 2:9-10; JOHN 14:1-3; 2 CORINTHIANS 6:14-18.
Nothing can be compared with heaven. If you don't have heaven in your mind, there's no point you will get there. You pray, you read the word, you come to church so that when our time on earth is finished, you will go to heaven. The rapture may take place while you're sleeping at home. Suddenly, the trumpet will sound. The heaven so bright, so splendid, so great and the habitation of God so beautiful, that's the place where there will be no night, there will be no sickness, there will be no death anymore, there will be no wicked and tormentors there, it will be happiness, joy and gladness for ever. Christ is not physically here because He go to prepare a place for you, if there's any society that will take away from you your confidence and faith in the Lord, come out of it because Christ went to prepare a place for you and He will come again. If you knew that He was going to come in this very hour, why don't you search your heart? If you truly know that Christ will come at any time, that habit in the dark that you're practice, you will repent immediately. Christ is coming again and when He comes, He will not find you in sin, He will not find you in fighting, He will not find you in retaliation, allow Christ to cleanse you and take away evil from you. You will be there IN Jesus' Name. To be there, it takes be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers because they don't believe the possibility of living right. You will not keep stolen property for anybody. When you keep the stolen property for them, you are unequally yoked together with unbelievers. When you have a conversation with unbelievers to persecute other people, no matter who you are, you are unequally yoked together with unbelievers. The Lord says, "If you're going to get to heaven, be not unequally yoked together with unbelievers." If you profess to be in the light in the afternoon, what are you doing in the night? Are you in agreement with idol worshippers? That cogent, that project of Satan makes you unequally yoked together with unbelievers. God the Almighty from heaven say, come out from among them. Getting to heaven is not a child's play. Turn away and turn to the Lord and throw away those things you have in common with unbelievers. When you reject that evil thing and when you break every connection with a gang of people to do evil, you will not go to them anymore, and then God will be a Father unto you. God is telling you tonight to repent. That's what the Almighty has said. When you turn away from evil and you turn to JESUS Christ, then God will be a Father unto you, and where Christ has gone to prepare for you, nobody will take your place. You enter into the ark of salvation like the day of Noah. Before God shut the door, repent and turn away from sin. As those animals replaced men and women that should enter the ark of Noah, God shut the door, judgement is real, the flood came and they were knocking the door, But he told them the key is not in his hand. Here is your day of opportunity to have salvation, the grace of God that brings Salvation has appeared unto you now, repent and believe in Jesus Christ, forgiveness is yours tonight, ifnyou don't repent now, when that day of opportunity comes for you to enter heaven, somebody will take your place. But God forbid, you will have your own salvation. Do not gamble with Salvation.
