OUR MESSAGE FOR TODAY’S SUNDAY SERVICE ON 8/24/2014 IS: THE SUPREMACY OF JESUS IN DIVINE MYSTERIES:

OUR MESSAGE FOR TODAY’S SUNDAY SERVICE ON 8/24/2014 IS: SUBJECT: THE POWER OF DIVINE MYSTERIES TOPIC: THE SUPREMACY OF JESUS IN DIVINE MYSTERIES DATE: SUNDAY AUGUST 24, 2014 READING SCRIPTURES: COLOSSIANS 1:1-27 (NIV) THE SUPREMACY OF JESUS IN DIVINE MYSTERIES: 1. It is important to note that before you can walk in the supremacy of the son of God in divine mysteries, you must have grace and peace in your life to accomplish the things of the supernatural with prayers, fasting and thanksgiving to God. See verses 1-8 2. You must come to the place in life where you have to intercede for others to walk in divine mysteries so as to connect to the Kingdom of God as soldiers of the Lord to depopulate the kingdom of darkness and increase the kingdom of God. To effectively pray for yourself and others, you need to walk in the knowledge, understanding and wisdom of God to connect to the supremacy of the son of God in divine mysteries. Remember you are rescued from the Kingdom of darkness by Jesus to do good works for God. See verses 9-14. 3. If you have not known, I want you to know that the Son Jesus is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. To walk in divine mysteries you need Jesus. Receive him now. See verse 15-19. 4. You have to be excited to walk in the supremacy of God through divine mysteries, without Jesus, this would not have been possible. Some may ask how Jesus opened the doors for us to walk in mysteries. He reconciled to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross. Without that blood shed on the cross we cannot walk in divine mysteries. By the mention of the blood of Jesus, mysteries take place immediately. Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of your evil behavior. But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation— if you continue in your faith, established and firm, and do not move from the hope held out in the gospel. See verses 20-23. 5. Finally I want you to know that you are empowered by divine mysteries to do all things by our Lord Jesus Christ because of the mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now disclosed to the Lord’s people which you are one. To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Cherish him all the days of your life and make a difference in your world. Your commitment to God and the things of God will empowers you to walk in divine mysteries till eternity. See verses 24-27. 6. My prayer for you today is to receive the supremacy power of Jesus Christ to walk in divine mysteries physically, spiritually and financially, and also to be identified with good works for the Lord and for humanity in Jesus name Amen. Colossians 1:1-27 New International Version (NIV) 1 Paul, an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, 2 To God’s holy people in Colossae, the faithful brothers and sisters[a] in Christ: Grace and peace to you from God our Father.[b] Thanksgiving and Prayer 3 We always thank God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, when we pray for you, 4 because we have heard of your faith in Christ Jesus and of the love you have for all God’s people— 5 the faith and love that spring from the hope stored up for you in heaven and about which you have already heard in the true message of the gospel 6 that has come to you. In the same way, the gospel is bearing fruit and growing throughout the whole world—just as it has been doing among you since the day you heard it and truly understood God’s grace. 7 You learned it from Epaphras, our dear fellow servant,[c] who is a faithful minister of Christ on our[d] behalf, 8 and who also told us of your love in the Spirit. 9 For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives,[e] 10 so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, 11 being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, 12 and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you[f] to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light. 13 For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, 14 in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins. The Supremacy of the Son of God 15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. 17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, 20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross. 21 Once you were alienated from God and were enemies in your minds because of[g] your evil behavior. 22 But now he has reconciled you by Christ’s physical body through death to present you holy in his sight, without blemish and free from accusation— 23 if you continue in your faith, established and firm, and do not move from the hope held out in the gospel. This is the gospel that you heard and that has been proclaimed to every creature under heaven, and of which I, Paul, have become a servant. Paul’s Labor for the Church 24 Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you, and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking in regard to Christ’s afflictions, for the sake of his body, which is the church. 25 I have become its servant by the commission God gave me to present to you the word of God in its fullness— 26 the mystery that has been kept hidden for ages and generations, but is now disclosed to the Lord’s people. 27 To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.
