Daniel 2 Message 16.02.2023

JESUS AND HIS NIGHT VISITOR

“ God so loved the world so much that he have his only son, so that every one who believes in him may not die but have eternal life” John 3: 16.

Nicodemus, a Jewish leader who was a Pharisee and also a great teacher of Israel came to Jesus at night time and stated “ Rabi, we know that you are a teacher Sent by God.” No one could perform the miracles you are doing unless God were with him” Jesus said ”No one can see the Kingdom of God, unless he is Born Again” Nicodemus exclaimed ‘How can a grown man be born again? He certainly cannot enter his mother’s womb and be born a second time?

Jesus taught him many secrets:

1.No one can enter the Kingdom of God,Unless he is born of water and the Spirit.

2. A person is born physically of human Parents but he is born Spiritually of the spirit.

3. “You must all be born again” When the wind blows, we hear its sound, but we do not know where it comes from or where it goes. It is like that with everyone who is born of the spirit.

4. No one has ever gone up to heaven except the Son of Man, who came down from heaven.

5. As Moses lifted up the bronze snake on a pole in the desert, in the same way, the Son of Man must be lifted up. So that everyone who believes in him may have eternal life.

6. For God did not send his son, into the world to be its’ judge, but to be its saviour. whoever believes in the Son is not judged but, who ever does not believe has already been judged, because he has not believed in God’s only Son.

7. The light had come into the world, but people love darkness rather than the light, because their deeds are evil. But who ever does what is true comes to light in obedience to God.

Jesus prayed in nights and God guided him, directed his path and gave strength to him.

Prayer

Lord! Let many people come to you day and night and you fill them with your love and light.

Daniel 2 Message-15.02.2023

Worship is sacrifice


Worship is sacrifice and sacrifice is worship. The Mind of Christ is sacrifice. Apostle Paul says in

Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus:

Jesus always put on the Mind of God His Father and likewise we are advised to put on the mind of Christ. Yes very truly the Mind of Christ is sacrifice. Look at the verses of Philippians 2:7-8

But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.


We see the mind of Christ very clearly that He made Himself of no reputation, meaning He considered Himself as nothing totally zero. What a mind Christ put in on Him. The verse says in Philippians 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: He was God, in the form of Man did not thought to be a robbery to be equal with God. Even though He was in the form of God He humbled Himself and sacrificed His life as an obedient servant of God to the point of death.

The cross was His daily passion while on earth as He daily developed as a sweet smelling sacrifice to His God His Father. Therefore every time He came to His Father God He poured His life as a living sacrifice as His worship.


We look through out the Gospel that He was a perfect living sacrificial lamb of God an perfect example for us to follow His path to the Father God in heaven. He was always saying I do my Father’s Will. Therefore God exalted Him to the highest place even to His right hand as we see in Philippians 2:9-11 Therefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.


So dear brothers and sisters let us purge ourselves from everything that separates us from God as Apostle Paul says in 2 Timothy 2:21 If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honour, sanctified, and meet for the master’s use, and prepared unto every good work.
Praise be to God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ.
