“The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few." A harvest is Gods provision and blessing over His people. He calls us to work in His fields and His kingdom. There is a lot of work to do and not enough laborers. What work is required? We always ask what is our calling. But Christ gave us all one command: To go into all the world and spread the Gospel.

"For whoever has will be given more, and they will have an abundance." "Whoever does not have, even what they have will be taken from them." What are you doing with what you are given? Young people regret doing things and old people regret not doing things. How have you invested into the Kingdom? What is your ministry? We are called to be laborers with Christ.Talents are designed to be shared and spent. He shows us mercy therefore we have to as well. Live out as Christ did and don’t invest into riches here but in the kingdom.

"Go; let it be done for you as you have believed.” There is power in faith. Faith is the main component of being in the Kingdom of God. You acquire faith by hearing; and hearing by the Word of God. With faith the size of a mustard seed, we can move mountains. Just go to Him for and with everything and He will deliver big results.

"When he found one of great value, he went away and sold everything he had and bought it." Jesus was born into our world that we might be born into His kingdom. Nothing in this world compares to the kingdom of heaven. The values of the kingdom should be our lifestyle. The message of the kingdom should be our primary message. The right believing works lead us to right living. Do you value what Jesus values?

Your words have power. Are you going to speak life or death. Thank God for the blessing and gifts He gives you each day. Cultivate joy. Don’t be resentful or bitter towards God if things don’t go your way or according to your time or plans. Don’t hide or try to cover your mistakes/sins but have courage to ask for forgiveness, and own your part. Don’t speak negative think over yourself. Let Him be in control and don’t try to work salvation by your own hand.

"So then you are no longer strangers and aliens." "But you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God." In a world of darkness, we are called by Jesus to be a light. Jesus lived the life we never could so that we can be citizens of heaven. Your righteousness is exclusively by faith. Leave your burdens behind and just live your new identity He has prepared for you as citizens and saints of the Kingdom.

"Do not be anxious about anything" "But in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your prayers be made known to God." Anxiety is not a new discovery. People have been struggling with it since the beginning of history. Yet anxiety exists behind God's peace. Pray and seek God first, don’t worry first. Don’t let prayer be your last resort to a problem, but make it your first response.

“You are the salt of the earth" “You are the light of the world" We are called to be the flavor and truth of God's Kingdom. If we lose our saltiness we are useless for the kingdom. Salt brings out flavor and taste, but also makes you really thirsty. We are supposed to make people thirst for the living water. After all this they should see something different in us, and that is our light. Let your light shine before men.

“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth” The kingdom of God is at hand. We are His kingdom; the space where heaven and earth overlap. It’s all under His authority, rule and reign. Because of Jesus’s sacrifice, He did not die just for you to live in a cycle. He died so His kingdom of Heaven can invade Earth. Christ’s Kingdom is wherever we are. In His Kingdom, forgiveness, healing, and power reign forever.

Boldness _____ We are commanded directly from Christ to witness to all nations. We have to take action and take risks. You don’t have to have all the answers, all you have to do is try. You don’t have to go out and witness alone; Jesus always sent the disciples out two by two, so they could help each other. Rely on the Holy Spirit and ask Him to speak through you and for you so we can show the world who Jesus is.

The Holy Spirit _____ We have to walk through, by, and with the Holy Spirit. As believers, we are the sanctuary of the Holy Spirit here on earth. Without the Holy Spirit, all our efforts are in vain. Deny yourself and abide in the Spirit. Our parents had a legacy of oppression and affliction but held fast; this should strengthen us. They gave their everything to God leaving us a legacy to follow.

Faith _____ The substance of the things we hope for; the evidence of the things we cannot see. Faith is the foundation of the Christian journey. One step of faith can change your life. Our faith will lead us into eternity. Faith without works is dead, just as works without faith is. We need to stop saying that we will believe it when we see it, but trust that we will see it when we believe it.

Prayer _____ Prayer is to address God with all adoration, confession, supplication, and thanksgiving. Prayer is our direct line of contact with Jesus. Don’t be afraid to rely on or cry out to God. He is alive and active, and He hears your prayers.

We all face different types of giants in our lives. Whether it is fear, worry, depression, opposition, or rejection, the biggest giant behind them all is yourself. So deny yourself. Put God first. Let Him be the one fighting for you. Allow Him to slay your giants.

David had deep devotion for the Lord. Devotion is our expression and character to our relationship with God. The Word calls us to pray and even tells us what to pray for. So how do you communicate with God? God wants to be face to face with you; not see you go from face to face. He doesn’t want fancy fabricated formality. He only desires you to be honest and transparent. He is always listening, just come face to face with God.

David’s heart of repentance is what earned him the title "A Man After God’s Own Heart." Our response to sin matters. Don’t try to cover up the mess. Step towards Jesus and away from sin. Give Him full control over your life; then you won’t be in the wrong places in the wrong time, and learn from a man like David.

Alive To Live:You are made alive to live a life by the power of the Holy Spirit. You cannot fake a godly character. Where do you need the Spirits help? Listen to the Spirits conviction, because it will lead to victory. Know what you are doing and where you’re going.

You need to get your eyes off of yourself, your problems, and turn your eyes upon Jesus. We all have issues. But just because you’re down, doesn’t mean you’re out. From start to finish, grace will take you through.

The resurrection anchors everything. If we don't have the resurrection, we have nothing. Christ rose from the dead so that you can be raised from the death of your sins. The power of the resurrection is not only in itself, but in the testimonies of those to which Jesus revealed Himself to. If you have a testimony, you have your own resurrection.
