Its Always About The Harvest Apostle Emelio Sebastian 2025 11 31

This powerful message centers on the story of Gideon from Judges 6, revealing a profound truth about how God sees us versus how we see ourselves. The central theme is preparation for harvest and understanding that spiritual battles are always fought over souls coming into the Kingdom. We discover Gideon hiding in a winepress, threshing wheat in fear of the Midianites who had been stealing Israel's harvest for seven years. Yet when the angel of the Lord appears, he calls this fearful man a 'man of fearless courage.' This is transformational: God calls those things that are not as though they are. He sees our potential, our destiny, our completed transformation even while we're still hiding in our wine presses. The message challenges us to stop viewing ourselves through the lens of our failures, fears, and inadequacies, and instead embrace how God sees us. The expansion of the church building becomes a living parable of faith in action, preparing for the harvest that God has promised. We learn that increase requires corresponding acts of faith, and that our primary calling is to participate in bringing in the harvest of souls. The battle we face isn't ultimately about our personal struggles but about the enemy's attempt to steal, kill, and destroy the harvest that belongs to God.
