Worth Everything!

If you're not working your field, if you're not doing what the word says right here, you got the treasure. I will see you in heaven. But what's your field look like? Is it barren? Is it unfruitful? If you're not diligently adding to your faith virtues, as it says right here, that's what'll happen. In the knowledge of your Lord Jesus Christ, my people are destroyed for lack of what? Knowledge. Not knowledge of the world. Not knowledge of how you work. It's the knowledge of God. [00:58:19] (44 seconds)  #WorkYourField

We receive the treasure by grace through faith. But now we we have to steward the field with faithful actions. If my actions line up with my faith, I gain traction. If my action is pulled away, I live in distraction. But so I will what? Fix my eyes on Jesus because I know he's the author and finisher of my faith. Work the field God gave me. Work in peace.

Let's look at this. Don't miss this. He got the field. So many times we celebrate, and we continue need to celebrate that treasure, celebrate that relationship with Jesus Christ, celebrate the king, but we cannot ignore the responsibility of the field.
