"Releasing Your Destiny”

I want to see you released into your destiny and running with the vision of this house. To make this church a silo that can hold the harvest.

This harvest must be reaped and placed in the silo or it will rot in the field. We are the ones that make up this last day remnant, and God has commissioned us to tend to the fields of this harvest.

In Mark 16 our mission is spelled it out quit clear, there is no need to pray about, there is no over-spiritualizing needed it is clear what we are to do.

When a soldier goes through boot camp, he receives a commission that sets him forth into his duties. We have been given our Great Commission and have been authorized and deputized in the power and anointing of the Holy Ghost to spread the Gospel message of Jesus Christ.

Doing nothing is easy; doing something takes effort. If you want to have true joy and peace all it takes is for you to minister to another. Focus on their needs and watch yours get taken care of as well.

It is sad but today in the church we have a lot of “organ recitals” this organ hurts, this organ doesn’t work right, and this organ well let’s just say things come out that should not. We got to stop sharing our organs this way and become an organ donor and show people the Heart of Christ.

I.The harvest is all around

When Christ was 12 He got separated from His parents and when they found Him; He was in the synagogue blowing the minds of everyone with His knowledge and His understanding. When Mary spoke to Him and said that they were looking for Him, He replied, “how is it that ye sought me? Wist ye not that I must be about my Father’s business?” When I hear the word must that tells me that there is no other option. We all have “must” from the Father to be about His business.

Satan knows his time is short. He is trying to distract us and keep us from seeing the harvest as God sees it. God is looking at the harvest, not at current events, problems, Washington, gas prices, terrorist attacks or unrest. God is solely focused on the harvest.

In John 4, Jesus met the woman at the well. He told her several things about her life and she received the revelation that He was the Messiah. Then she immediately went back into town and told them about Jesus. When the disciples showed up they were worried about Jesus eating, but He was focused on the Harvest. They were more focused on the naturally things and missed the Samaritan woman’s conversion.

This woman would go back into town and tell them about Jesus (see here is a classic example of a woman preacher) the town would come back with her to meet Jesus. Jesus would say to his disciples “behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.” It was as if He was taken them by the chin and saying “I want you to look around and see things the way I do!”

Jesus is speaking to us today to look around and see the Harvest, we need to have a heart for the souls of mankind.

Church we are moving into a season of release, a release of the power of God and a release of us into the harvest. We have for too long in the Christian community made it all about us. When I watch Christian TV every sermon is about us; we get sermons on how to get out of debt, how to get healing, how to fight depression, how to eat right, and how to get rich and blessed.

We will shout over these messages oh we love to hear we are the head and not the tails, but in reality that is where our head is we are centered on self and not on the harvest. There are few that preach on winning souls and reclaiming a city for Christ. When Jesus went into a town He made an impact in that town. When He left it was changed. It is time we change this city!

When you go to Hebrews 11 and read about these men of God you see that they were movers and shakers not sitters and whiners. Throughout Hebrews there is a recurring theme and that is “by faith”, everything was done in faith and by faith. All of their needs were met because they walked in faith. As they stayed busy doing Kingdom work, the King kept busy blessing them. When you get involved in God’s harvest, God will get involved in yours.
