1. BE BOLD — TAKE KINGDOM RISKS
“Give, and it will be given to you; a good measure — pressed down, shaken together, and running over — will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured back to you.””
Luke 6:38 CSB
“for the king had ships of Tarshish at sea with Hiram’s fleet, and once every three years the ships of Tarshish would arrive bearing gold, silver, ivory, apes, and peacocks. ,”
1 Kings 10:22 CSB
2. BE STRATEGIC — DON’T PUT EVERYTHING IN ONE PLACE
“Let the thief no longer steal. Instead, he is to do honest work with his own hands, so that he has something to share with anyone in need.”
Ephesians 4:28 CSB
3. BE REALISTIC — BUT DON’T BE PARALYZED
“You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.”
Hockey great, Wayne Gretzky
“The man who had received one talent also approached and said, ‘Master, I know you. You’re a harsh man, reaping where you haven’t sown and gathering where you haven’t scattered seed. So I was afraid and went off and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what is yours.’ “His master replied to him, ‘You evil, lazy servant! If you knew that I reap where I haven’t sown and gather where I haven’t scattered, then you should have deposited my money with the bankers, and I would have received my money back with interest when I returned.”
Matthew 25:24-27 CSB
4. Be faithful- work humbly and hopefully
“I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the growth. So, then, neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God who gives the growth.”
1 Corinthians 3:6-7
