Gift on the Tree // Be Rich (Part 4)

Pastor Vlad finished the BE RICH series with powerful message about God’s riches of mercy and the gift He provided for all of us on the tree of Calvary. This message will encourage you to look to God for His mercy. Message Notes: We put our gifts under the tree, God put His gift on the tree. We need to care for most gifts, God’s gift cares for us. God did not give us salvation, He gave us a savior! (Luke 2:11) Ephesians 2:4-7 “God’s mercy is so great that you may sooner drain the sea of its water, or deprive the sun of its light, or make space too narrow, than diminish the great mercy of God” Charles Spurgeon God is not merciful out of pity but out of great love. (John 3:16) 1. Mercy MAKES ME ALIVE! Sin made me dead, religion put a suit on a corpse but Christ brings resurrection. Salvation is not prison break, its new birth. (John 3:3). Jesus died as a sinner so that we will live as sons. (2 Corinthians 5:21). Jesus did not feel like a sinner on the cross, but He still died as one! You’re a not a felon, you are a son. You’re not an orphan, you are a child of God (John 14:18; 1 John 2. Mercy RAISED ME UP! Flogging was not necessary for forgiveness but it was needed for healing. Jesus healed because it’s who He is. (Exodus 15:26) Jesus healed to manifest the kingdom. (Luke 11:20) Jesus healed out of compassion. (Matthew 14:14) Faith is not what you feel but where you look. (John 3:14-15) Jesus was wounded so that I will be whole. (Matthew 8:16-17) 3. Mercy MADE US SIT IN THE HEAVENLY PLACES! Jesus did not die a quick death so you can live a an abundant life (John 10:10) Curse makes life a living hell. (Galatians 3:13-14). Jesus endured living hell so that you can be seated in the heavenly places. __________ Stay connected with Pastor Vlad Instagram http://www.instagram.com/vladhungrygen Facebook http://www.facebook.com/vladhungrygen Twitter http://www.twitter.com/vladhungrygen Subscribe to his blog: http://www.hungrygen.com/blog Invite Pastor Vlad to speak http://www.hungrygen.com/invite
