705 young people made a commitment to Jesus at Newday that was recorded by the team. 345 young people reporting being immediately healed. Lots more going on in hearts.
Praise Jesus!
Acts 28:23
“…he expounded to them, testifying to the kingdom of God and trying to convince them about Jesus both from the Law of Moses and from the Prophets”.
Every part of Scripture fits into God’s redemptive story that culminates in Christ!
There are three great Old Testament fall stories:
- Adam and the forbidden fruit
- Moses and the golden calf
- David and Bathsheba
Jesus resists 3 temptations:
- To eat
- To worship a false god
- To parade his royal power from the temple roof

“The LORD visited Sarah as he had said, and the LORD did to Sarah as he had promised”. — Genesis 21:1
God’s word and God’s works are inseparable. He always acts in accordance with what He has spoken.
“Command the people of Israel that they put out of the camp everyone who is leprous…and everyone who is unclean….”Numbers 5:2
Jesus was cast outside for us, so that by His shed blood we who were unclean are brought back in, made clean & welcomed into God’s dwelling
Praise God
Leviticus 19:36-37
“…I am the LORD your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt. And you shall observe all my statutes and all my rules, and do them: I am the LORD.”
Our obedience flows ‘from’ freedom not ‘for’ freedom!
“O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting?” 1 Corinthians 15:55
Before Christ: death has a sting (sin & judgment)
In Christ: the sting is removed, the victory reversed, the future secured!
Happy Lords Day!
