The Impact of a Servant's Heart
Love must be the foundation of anything we do as a servant and glory to God must be the goal. Humility must be the attitude we demonstrate and others must be the target of our service.

Beyond the Call
A warrior's purpose is to please the king. As warriors our goal is to claim victory. Warriors may not always understand, but we are always to serve. We should ask ourselves: 1. What am I doing to please my King this week? 2. Will my trust in the Lord lead me to certain victory this week? 3. Am I willing to keep on serving tomorrow, even though I don't understand today?

Our Worth in God's Eyes
Why do we run away form the God of love? Our youth places blinders on our eyes, our pride serves as a motivator and our desire for independence can set us on the run. The results of running away: distance in the relationship, we end up running on empty, confusion and death. To have a coming home party we must have a repentent heart then God will receive us with open arms.

Responding to the Lost
We need to understand God's heart for the lost. He loves all people without labeling or judging them based on our values. Everyone is valuable to God. The lost must become our priority, calling us to action. Each of us can impact others for God's kingdom by reaching out. There is joy when the lost are found. God Himself rejoices when someone is restored to Him.

How'd We Get This Bible?
We can be drawn to the heart of God through the Bible and it is our means to discovering the will of God. How can I allow the Bible to impact my life? 1. If I doubt the origin of the Word, I will question the ability of the Author. 2. The stronger my faith, the greater the revelation of the Word. 3. Holy Scriptures provide a Holy pathway for us.

The Ultimate Authority
God's Word must be the ultimate and final authority of our lives. The Word is alive, precise and discerning. It's unique and demands our obedience. We must be believers who follow the Word and making a difference in the world around us.

A Word From Heaven
We can trust the authenticity of the Bible because the author is real. We can grow from the testimony of others who have trusted in the Word of God. How does my testimony challenge others to grow? Our life is an encouragement for others to go on and the Word of God we display can shape others. Our personal challenge is to stay faithful to the teachings of scripture. Daily challenge to faithfulness: watch and listen in prayer and refuse to let a day go by without complete dependence on God. Practical purposes of God speaking: we are to be students, we are able to find correction and we are ready to carry out God's program.

The Impact of the Gift - Test Me
We can find freedom in the truth. Two truths are we can find freedom in truth and people simply neglect to do what they know they need to do. Our freedom calls us to action. The tithe was the action God expected from his children. Our action is rewarded by the freedom provider. We're promised God's provision if we put Him to the test. It's not about seeing and believing, but believing and then seeing. Ask yourself will I allow God to prove himself to me through the test? When God says, "Let it pour", look out!

The Impact of the Gift
God has entrusted His resources to us and we are to manage them according to His desires, not ours. Our gifts are no secret to God and reflect our commitment. They're also one way we communicate to God how grateful we are. Here's a heart exam: If Jesus were seated next to you today, would your gift be any different? Are my gifts done out of the surplus of my resources? Does my giving tell God I actually rely on Him.

The Impact of our Gifts
God can do what we cannot. It's not what we can do with what we have but what God can do with what we give Him! Grasping the power of God helps eliminate our doubts. The extravagance of our gifts doesn't matter, it's the power of God to multiply those gifts. We must trust in the God who will supply and live believing that nothing is outside the capability of God. When doubts arise, call the Doctor and praise God for what you have and for what is coming.
