4 June 2023 – Hope That Does Not Disappoint – New Creation Church Sermon Notes (Pastor Lim Lian Neo)
New Sermon Notes: Pastor Lian taught us to hope in God to renew our strength as we wait for the desired breakthrough. We will not be disappointed by having confident hope in God.
Praise and worship songs performed:
1. The Highest Praise – New Creation Worship
2. I Surrender – New Creation Worship
3. I Stand In Worship – New Creation Worship
4. When I Look Into Your Holiness – Cathy Perrin
5. Goodness Of God – Bethel Music
Psalm 103:1-5 – We declared this aloud together as a church.
“Praise Yahweh, my soul! All that is within me, praise his holy name! Praise Yahweh, my soul, and don’t forget all his benefits, who forgives all your sins, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from destruction, who crowns you with loving kindness and tender mercies, who satisfies your desire with good things, so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.” (Psalms 103:1-5 WEBUS)
Jesus said that we would have trials and tribulations in this world, but to take heart as He has overcome the world.
Psalm 27:13 – David declared this even when he was going through troubles.
The word “still” in this verse means that a lot of time has passed.
If you have been facing an issue for a long time and waiting for a breakthrough, you can still be confident in the goodness of God.
“I am still confident of this: I will see the goodness of Yahweh in the land of the living.” (Psalms 27:13 WEBUS)
Psalm 27:14 – The word translated as “wait” is “qavah” in Hebrew which means hope. To wait means to Hope in God. Wait is emphasized twice—it is important. Some time is required for fulfillment of His promises.
“Wait for Yahweh. Be strong, and let your heart take courage. Yes, wait for Yahweh.” (Psalms 27:14 WEBUS)
Romans 5:5 – God’s love is gushing out into our hearts. We will not be disappointed when we hope in God.
“and hope doesn’t disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.” (Romans 5:5 WEBUS)
Isaiah 40:31 – We need strength to wait. Whilst waiting, keep hoping in the Lord Jesus to renew strength.
“but those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength. They will mount up with wings like eagles. They will run, and not be weary. They will walk, and not faint.” (Isaiah 40:31 WEBUS)
God’s word is our anchor of hope to renew our strength in times of delayed manifestations
Psalm 130:5 – Anchor your hope on God’s word.
“I wait for Yahweh. My soul waits. I hope in his word.” (Psalms 130:5 WEBUS)
Hebrews 6:19 – Our soul is naturally impatient and bad at waiting. Let our hope be anchored in God’s word.
“This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and entering into that which is within the veil,” (Hebrews 6:19 WEBUS)
Exodus 32:1-2 – The people built an idol when they saw that Moses delayed.
Aaron was affected as a well. The people breaking off their golden earrings represents abandoning their hearing about the gift of divine righteousness.
Hear about messages that you are the righteousness of God in Christ. Otherwise, you will be susceptible to hearing the voice of fear and others.
“When the people saw that Moses delayed coming down from the mountain, the people gathered themselves together to Aaron, and said to him, “Come, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we don’t know what has become of him.” Aaron said to them, “Take off the golden rings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them to me.”” (Exodus 32:1-2 WEBUS)
Romans 8:33-39 – Jesus is now making intercession for us at the right hand of the Father. He will never fail.
We are more than conquerors because Jesus gave us the victory.
“Who could bring a charge against God’s chosen ones? It is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, yes rather, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Could oppression, or anguish, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Even as it is written, “For your sake we are killed all day long. We were accounted as sheep for the slaughter.” No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing will be able to separate us from God’s love which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Romans 8:33-39 WEBUS)
Galatians 3:2-6 – It is not our working to earn the Spirit but our receiving the Spirit by faith.
We receive miracles through the hearing of faith.
This is the life that God has given to us: receiving His supply instead of working to obtain.
“I just want to learn this from you: Did you receive the Spirit by the works of the law, or by hearing of faith? Are you so foolish? Having begun in the Spirit, are you now completed in the flesh? Did you suffer so many things in vain, if it is indeed in vain? He therefore who supplies the Spirit to you and does miracles among you, does he do it by the works of the law, or by hearing of faith? Even so, Abraham “believed God, and it was counted to him for righteousness.”” (Galatians 3:2-6 WEBUS)

Thank you for being such a blessing to my family by reading my Christian content and purchasing my products. I write freelance full-time and am the main caretaker to my 4 year old daughter, so your seed sown allows me to keep writing content for Jesus’ glory, to build up the body of Christ and for the Gospel to reach unbelievers who are yet to know Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
My website receives hundreds of thousands of page views a year, and my Facebook page’s posts reach millions of users a year. Every view is a precious seed of the Gospel sown in a person’s heart, and knowing that keeps me going, even on days where it feels like what i’m doing seems insignificant or a waste of time.
All these labors to study God’s word and reach the world for Jesus takes both time and money, so thank you once again for being a co-partner in this mission.

Messiah’s Miracles—The Power of Having Faith in Jesus Christ
$14.99
$9.99
The Bible clearly reveals God’s will for every believer to walk in the miraculous. If you’re tired of a Christian walk that has no evidence of God’s manifested power, all it takes is to replace some wrong beliefs so that unbelief can be cast out. This is what I believe the Holy Spirit wants to do through this book.
Under the New Covenant of Grace, every blessing is received by faith. Faith comes by hearing about Jesus and this book is all about Jesus and designed to impart faith to the reader. During Jesus’ ministry on earth, He didn’t work any miracles by His own authority as God. He relied completely on faith in His Father and the power of the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit purposefully chose 37 of Jesus’ miracles to be recorded in the four gospels. This is no coincidence. Each miracle reveals something powerful about our Lord Jesus. As you behold Jesus’ love, grace and mercy expounded in these 37 miracles, I believe that you will see miracles erupt in your own life!
Testimonials from readers:
“One of my most trusted teachers has truly written a masterpiece. I can’t put this book down.”
– Michael Clark, Highly Sought-After Preacher in USA
“Thank you, Milton for the anointed sharing of the 37 miracles of Jesus. Right from the 1st miracle, God dropped fresh revelations of His heart to me. It wasn’t head knowledge that I experienced. I felt His personality, His loving heart’s intents towards me. On top of that, there’s also revelation of His healing power. Praise Jesus for transforming my heart and bringing me closer to Him through Milton’s sharing.”
– Ann Tan, GEM patron from Singapore

God’s Appointed Time – Being Fruitful in Every Season of Life
$14.99
$9.99
Understanding God’s appointed time will allow you to flow with what He is doing and experience profound peace in all situations.
Many believers are frustrated and even bitter against God because they lack the revelation about God’s system of times and seasons.
They want things to happen in their own way, at their own time, and when it doesn’t happen as expected, they throw tantrums.
In this eBook, which is a compilation of thirty devotionals I have written on this topic, you will learn how to receive God’s grace for every moment of time, and even speak and do things so aligned with the Holy Spirit—effectively acting as one.
This is what Shally, a sister-in-Christ, said about “God’s Appointed Time”: “Thanks for this awesome series, Milton. I have been very blessed and need to hear so many truths in it because of the season I am currently in. I was looking for answers and they came daily in your messages. Blessings in Christ Jesus to you and family. May your seed multiply and grow in His Grace and righteousness.”
As a launch offer to get this eBook in the hands of as many readers as possible, I am offering “God’s Appointed Time” at a 25% discount for 1 day only. Order and download your copy of the eBook before the offer ends! Looking forward to reading your feedback and reviews about it soon!

Testimonials for “Younger and Younger”:
“I have been speaking the youth declarations in the book. The other day when I had lunch with a friend, we bumped into her friends who thought that I am my friend’s daughter; we are about 10 years difference of age. Praise the Lord for His renewal!” – Ann Tan from Singapore
“After embarking on “Younger and Younger” for the day, I managed to run about 3.2 km which I normally can’t. I realized that it’s the kind of distance I ran during the days of my youth; I am seeing that God is multiplying my days to be more youthful, healthier, and stronger. Praise Jesus! Thank you brother Milton for obeying Jesus and taking us on this journey.” – Alwin Seeni from Singapore

Reviews about “Silencing the Serpent”:
“Milton Goh, I downloaded your book and it was God’s appointed time for my breakthrough. He destroyed a stronghold in my life that was rooted on a lie. A light just went on in an instant and the Lord uprooted a wrong belief. I struggled now for years with a relationship and I believed a lie that a sin I committed in the past was unforgivable, and I judged the other person for the same sin. It was unconscious and I didn’t know that I was bound by this lie. When I read a chapter in this book, about strongholds in the mind, the Holy Spirit revealed it to me in a flash and it was as if the walls of Jericho were tumbling down! Thanks for this book–it is from the Lord!
” – Antoinette Hurter Keyser from South Africa“A short testimony to share after reading the chapter about girding up our loins with the TRUTH. After reading it, I met some of my colleagues and the first thing they told me was, “You are fat, you put on weight,” not even “Hi, hello, how are you…” At first, I was sad over the remarks. But almost immediately, I was reminded of truth of God’s Word which says that “I am highly favored, beloved of Jesus, and Jesus sees me as fit and healthy. I am not defined by what others say, but by what Jesus says!” After that, I carried on with work and went for my run and managed to complete close to 5km. Something which I have never done before. All praise and glory to Jesus. Thank you, brother Milton for your teaching on the armor of God shared in this book! – Alwin Seeni from Singapore
“Thank you brother Milton. Your insights are a blessing. God bless you with many more beautiful revelations.” – Shirley Thomas from India

All Things Made New: How to Prosper in All Things Through God’s Restoration
$14.99
$9.99
When God restores, He adds His shalom (all-encompassing prosperity), to that area of loss. No matter how you have lost, you will become a gainer through God’s restoration. As you receive wave after wave of restoration, you will prosper and eventually become very prosperous. This revelation is what inspired this book. At that time, the Holy Spirit said that God wants to prosper us in all things through His restoration. He is putting what is broken and missing back to their ideal places in your life. God will rearrange things for your good.
After you overcome each challenge, God does not leave you as broken pieces. He restores you by putting you back together and sealing the cracks with gold—the workings of His Grace. You become more precious and valuable than if you did not go through hardships.
The Japanese art of Kintsugi is a perfect illustration of this. The practitioner takes a broken earthen vessel, assembles the pieces, and literally seals the cracks with gold. It is restored as a beautiful art piece, more valuable than before it was broken.
Are you ready to discover how God’s restoration works, and how you can even become a gainer in the area of your most painful loss?
A peek at the chapter titles:
1: God Will Restore you in New Ways
2: When Will Restoration Come?
3: Start Asking for Restoration
4: Jesus is your Basis for Restoration
5: Hundredfold Restoration in this Lifetime
6: See God’s Restoration in Action
7: Restorer of the Broken
8: Inward Before Outward Restoration
9: Restoration After the Suffering
10: Restoration of Lost Years
11: The Joy of your Salvation, Restored
12: Restoration for your Own Mistakes
13: The Rhema Word for your Restoration
14: What it Means to “Restore”
15: Complete Restoration for your Body
16: Greater Restoration Under Grace
17: Prepare for your Restoration
18: Extending Restoration by Grace to Fellow Men
19: See God’s Ability in your Disabilities
20: Only the Blood of Jesus is Worthy
21: Everything to Its Ideal Place
22: Follow Jesus and Be Restored
23: God Receives Restoration Too
24: Turn to Jesus and be Restored
25: Who is your Rewarder?
Parting Words (Special Prayer for Restoration)
Here is a testimony shared by one of my readers about “All Things Made New”:
“I am truly blessed and learnt so much from “All Things Made New”. Recently, I had the privilege to minister to one of my family members, who had fallen into sexual sin and was feeling condemned. I assured that person that Jesus is more than able to restore what was lost and reminded of His love and grace towards this person. Moreover, I was able to use what you had taught and put some into my assignments for my counselling modules. Thank you, brother Milton for this teaching. I would not have been able to do the former without these devotionals. Thank you and may Jesus continue to bless you and your family and grant you wisdom to write more. Amen!” – Alwin Seeni from Singapore

* Please Take Note: These sermon notes are not official New Creation Church (NCC) or Pastor Joseph Prince sermon notes. These sermon notes are not affiliated with NCC or Pastor Prince.
I highly recommend purchasing Pastor Prince’s sermons on his mobile app “Joseph Prince” on Apple App Store or Google Play Store even after you read these notes as I may have missed out something he shared and the overall experience is definitely different when you listen to him preaching directly!
Use these notes as a revision guide instead of solely depending on them!
These sermon notes are independently-compiled by me, and I’m just a loyal and regular attendee of the the church’s Sunday services, and I feel led to take detailed personal sermon notes of Pastor Prince’s anointed messages to share them with the world, which desperately needs the true word of God and the original gospel of grace.
I feel blessed to be able to attend Pastor Joseph Prince’s services in person, and would like to help everyone who isn’t able to attend in person, to get hold of the messages as soon as it is preached!
Many blessings and thanks to Justina Ng, Shirley Thomas, and Terence So for supporting this blog as our Superabundant Grace tier patrons!
