There are investors who have a solid handle on the levels of the stock market. They know when it’s been a good day or if the market’s plummeted.

A potential treasure is possible, but it’s on quicksand that could falter at any moment. Today, Pastor Bill implores you to have your treasure fixed on something that has a lasting footing.

When we are told not to worry, that the Lord will take care of you, does that mean you don't need to work and take care of yourself? If the Lord cares for us more than the sparrows and they are not hungry, do we not need to work for our food? No! As Pastor Bill shares in today's message we still need to be responsible. We need to use the gifts and talents the Lord gave us to provide for ourselves and share with the Kingdom on Earth. But we don't need to worry about all the little details.

In what do you place your identity? As Pastor Bill shares in today's message, your true identity is not found in your children, your career or your wealth. You are a child of the Kingdom. Kingdom kids live their life differently that everyone else. First we need to guard our hearts against materialism. Especially in America, people place their identity in what they have. They strive for the latest and greatest gadget. But that is not who you were created to be, so guard your heart against the things of this world.

Whenever you get stuck in a 'life isn't fair mood', just remember nothing on Earth compares to the Kingdom inheritance you've received thanks to Jesus sacrifice on the cross. As Pastor Bill shares in his message today, you can live this kingdom life now. Your heavenly Father will provide everything you need in this life and lavish you with gifts in the next. In order to live your life with the gift of the kingdom is to guard your heart against greed. If you let greed take over, you might miss what the Lord has for you in this life.

As Christians, we are called to confess Jesus' name. Not just at church on Sunday, or when you are safe with a small group of believers- always! Talk about Jesus at the gym, waiting in line at the store, or even when you get asked to say a blessing in the community. In Pastor Bill's message today, he shares how in addition to confessing Jesus name, we should never deny his name either. You might ask, 'what's in it for me?' When you get to heaven Jesus will be bragging on you!

In a play, an actor often would wear a mask to portray a specific character. If you go around in life wearing an invisible mask to hide who you are, you are considered a hypocrite. A person who wears a mask does not portray who they really are. In Pastor Bill's message today, he encourages you to take off your mask. God created you uniquely and he loves you regardless of your true character. When you stop pretending to be someone else, you can concentrate on who God really created you to be.

In his message, today Pastor Bill introduces us to the idea of 'holy heartburn'. This happens to Pastor Bill when he is reading the Bible and starts to become as passionate about the message Jesus is preaching that his heart begins to race. Or maybe you are listening to a message and the topic is so hot that you start getting worked up- for the Lord. When was the last time your heart beat faster for the Kingdom? It's like runners high, experiencing God's awesomeness so powerfully that you have a physical reaction.

Are you going to church to make someone happy? Just following along doing your best to agree, but in truth just you are living for yourself? As Pastor Bill shares in his message today, once you become a true believer you'll come to repentance and change your life. Going to church and believing in the Bible won't get you into heaven, Only a heart relationship with the Son of God will. So are you trying to make someone happy or are you truly following after Jesus with a heart of repentance?
