We Shall Reap, Part #3 | Keith Moore | November 6, 2022

Recap:
What a weekend we had with guest minister Keith Moore! It was a blessing as we listened to his various messages on reaping and harvesting what God has prepared for us. This was a weekend where you may want to listen to ALL three messages to get the full picture of what Keith was sharing. When you sow into God’s kingdom, you are planting financial seed into the ground. It is your job, however, to expect and reap a harvest! God has given you the ability to do so. In fact, your harvest is often waiting, and too many Christians don’t realize that they are supposed to actively get it by faith!

Dive Deeper:
Faith is the hand that takes what God has so graciously given. In fact, it is our responsibility to be on the lookout for our harvest. How? We need to pay attention to the leading of the Holy Spirit on the inside of us. We need to be aware of when He leads us to our harvest, and we need to be ready to obey and take our harvest.

Think for a moment about the power of the seed. If you plant seed, a multiplication process begins. A seed always works to produce miraculously more than it initially had. Reaping, however, is not automatic. We need to learn to take our harvest by faith. Claim what you need. Claim your harvest. Don’t leave your harvest up to God. Believe it. Claim it. Listen to God for His direction as to where you shall reap it!

The first generation of Israelites didn’t possess the Promised Land. They felt sorry for themselves and didn’t embrace the courageous faith that they needed to reap their rewards. On the other hand, the lady with the issue of blood pressed through the crowd and took a healing from Jesus. She didn’t even ask if it would be okay. Faith is not for the wimpy!

Religion makes beggars out of men. God wants you to possess all He has prepared for you by faith! What you bind on earth will be bound in heaven and what you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.

Read About It:
Galatians 6:9 KJV
And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not.

1 Timothy 6:12 KJV
Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses.

Mark 11:24 KJV
Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.

Luke 8:43–48 KJV
And a woman having an issue of blood twelve years, which had spent all her living upon physicians, neither could be healed of any, came behind him, and touched the border of his garment: and immediately her issue of blood stanched. And Jesus said, Who touched me? When all denied, Peter and they that were with him said, Master, the multitude throng thee and press thee, and sayest thou, Who touched me? And Jesus said, Somebody hath touched me: for I perceive that virtue is gone out of me. And when the woman saw that she was not hid, she came trembling, and falling down before him, she declared unto him before all the people for what cause she had touched him, and how she was healed immediately. And he said unto her, Daughter, be of good comfort: thy faith hath made thee whole; go in peace.

Proverbs 10:5 KJV
He that gathereth in summer is a wise son: but he that sleepeth in harvest is a son that causeth shame.

Recent Sermon Notes

Grace Unveiled: “Baptized Into His Death” | Jim Hammond

Pastor Jim presented the 21st installment to his series on the book of Romans entitled, “Grace Unveiled.” By now, having gone through Romans chapters 1 through 5, we should all have an understanding of what it means to be justified. Once you ask Jesus to be your Lord and Savior, you receive the gift of righteousness. That means you are able to stand before God the Father without a sense of guilt or inferiority. This is the New Testament covenant we have with God, made possible through Jesus Christ. Now that we have a firm understanding of what it means to be justified through grace, Pastor Jim began to teach on the subject of sanctification.

GRACE UNVEILED 19 The Throne of Grace | Jim Hammond

Pastor Jim gave the 20th installment of his series on the book of Romans entitled, “Grace Unveiled.” His subtitle was “The Spirit Is Greater Than Flesh.” He finished up his examination of Galatians 5, where it listed the works of the flesh. This examination revealed that a lot of us have been sinning and we didn’t even realize it! Nonetheless, because of our New Testament Covenant, through grace, our sins are forgiven and we are made righteous before our God!

Upper Midwest Faith Explosion 24 | Terri Savelle Foy, Kenneth Copeland, and Jesse Duplantis

“Ignite a fresh fire in our hearts, Lord,” was the heart cry of Pastor Mac at the annual Upper Midwest Faith Explosion. Passion to fulfill the Lord’s mandate to make disciples of all nations was the driving force of these special meetings. Though each of our guest speakers—Terri Savelle Foy, Kenneth Copeland, and Jesse Duplantis— preached unique messages, their messages converged into a united flow, acknowledging the time is short. It’s time for the body of Christ to push beyond the limits of the Christian experience, uniting together to make disciples of all nations. “And that,” said Pastor Mac, “is how we will change the face of the globe!”

GRACE UNVEILED 19 The Throne of Grace | Jim Hammond

Pastor Jim taught the 19th installment on his series on the book of Romans entitled, “Grace Unveiled.” Romans tells us we have the ability to go to God without a sense of guilt or inferiority. That’s the work of grace in our lives. We are able to go to the throne of grace with boldness! What is the throne of grace? It is the throne of God’s unmerited favor. Because of that, when we fail, we can approach His throne without fear, without guilt, and with great confidence in His grace!

THY KINGDOM COME, #3, Transformation | Mac Hammond

Pastor Jim gave the 17th installment of his series on the book of Romans, entitled, “Grace Unveiled.” Subtitled “Matters of the Heart,” the text for the message was Romans 5:20, “Moreover the law entered that the offense might abound. But where sin abounded, grace abounded much more.” When the law was given, it exposed the many sins of the people. The law’s effect is that the more clearly they saw what was right, the more things they discovered that were wrong. The more we see our sins, the more aware we become of the penalty from which God has saved us. But thanks be to God, those who put their faith and trust in Christ receive forgiveness of sins and eternal life!
