New Dawn Parish

This Mercy Day, we explore five vital truths from 1 John 5:14–20:

– The confidence we have when we pray according to God’s will

– The danger of remaining in sin

– Our call to intercede for others

– The purpose of Christ’s coming

– And why Christ alone is the true God and eternal life

Even in a world marked by deception, we are kept by mercy and guarded from the evil one.

In 2 Kings 5:19-27 and 2 Thessalonians 2:1-10, we witness the tragic unraveling of Gehazi—a man whose greed, deception, and hidden motives led to devastating consequences. His story serves as a sobering reminder that no ambition or personal gain is worth the cost of a corrupted heart.

In this Glorious Day Service, we are reminded that God sees beyond outward appearances and actions; He searches and weighs the intentions of the heart. True glory is not found in worldly achievements or selfish pursuits, but in a life marked by truth, humility, integrity, and obedience to God. May we be people whose hearts remain pure before Him, walking rightly in His sight.

In Colossians 3:5-10, Paul calls believers to put off the old self and embrace the new life found in Christ. On this Power Day, we reflect on the transformative work of the Holy Spirit that enables us to break free from sinful patterns and step fully into our identity as a new creation. True power is not just in outward acts, but in an inward renewal that shapes how we live every day.

In Ecclesiastes 9:1-10, we are reminded of life’s common destiny—death comes to all, whether righteous or wicked. This sobering truth calls us to live with wisdom, urgency, and gratitude for God’s mercy. On this Mercy Day, we reflect on how God’s grace allows us to live purposefully despite life’s uncertainties, making the most of every opportunity with hearts surrendered to Him.

In Psalms 2, we see a prophetic reflection of King David’s challenges with rebellion—most notably in the story of David and Absalom. This passage reminds us that though rulers and nations may rise against God’s anointed, the Lord remains sovereign. For our Victory Day Service, we draw lessons from David’s heart in the midst of betrayal and conflict, and how trusting in God’s rule leads to true victory—not by human strength, but by divine purpose and peace.

Before Samson ever fought a lion or delivered Israel, the Spirit of the Lord began to stir him. Divine stirrings are the invisible beginnings of visible impact. They are holy nudges, restlessness, or divine discontent that prepare God’s vessels for a prophetic assignment.

This service reminds us that every prophet and prophetess is stirred before they are sent. God doesn’t wait until the stage to start shaping you — He begins in secret. Will you yield to the stirring?

In this sobering message, we explore God’s words through the prophet Jeremiah to the leaders of Judah—words that still speak to every generation. Leadership is a sacred trust, and when it is abused, neglected, or corrupted, the fallout is devastating. Jeremiah 22:1-9 reveals how failure in leadership leads not only to personal downfall but national disaster.

This Mercy Day, we are reminded that God’s mercy is available, even in the face of judgment—but only when there is repentance. What does it look like to lead with justice, humility, and integrity in our homes, churches, and communities? And what happens when we don’t?

Come ready to reflect, repent, and receive fresh mercy to lead well in whatever sphere God has placed you.

Pentecost is more than a date on the calendar—it’s a divine encounter. In this sermon, we trace the awe and preparation of Mount Sinai to the life-transforming fire of the Upper Room. From thunder and trembling to repentance and revival, we reflect on what it truly means when God visits His people. What does His presence demand of us? What does it awaken in us? And how do we live as people marked by the Spirit?

In this sermon, we reflect on one of Jesus’ most comforting assurances—the promise of the Holy Spirit. More than just a presence, He is our Advocate, our Helper, and the reminder that we are never alone. Through John 14:15–21, we explore what it means to love Jesus through obedience, and how the Spirit empowers us to live out that love daily. Even in uncertain times, the promise remains: God is with us, always.
