The nobleman left ten servents with ten pounds and told them to make use of it, Well the nobleman came back and they had to give an account for what they did. In essence Jesus told us to be about his business, what will he find one doing when he comes for his church 

Asa said these words in his prayer on the battlefield, that we rest on thee, and face this great multitude in thy name... Today we must rest on the promises of God and face those battles, in the name of Jesus 

Yesterday, is past yesterday represents those hurts, failures, mistakes  and ones past that many are reaching back to.. But God tells us we must reach forth.. As long as we reach back one cannot reach forward

To many today are seeking their own first, and neglecting the interest of Christ..

The need of this hour is for believers to get hungry and start seeking the baptism of the Holy Ghost, to be empowered to be a witness in these last days
