Awakening a Harvest Mindset: Faith, Community, and the Call to Action

When you meet someone impacted by our Dream Centers, you can see it, the impact of hope, faith, and transformation. These places are not just a building. It’s a heartbeat. It’s the sound of a community that decided to say “yes” to God’s vision.

You see it in the smile of a single mom who found a new beginning. You see it in the laughter of her two little girls, radiant with joy. And behind every story like this are Kingdom Builders, ordinary people, fueled by extraordinary faith, choosing to make a difference.

This is what happens when the church becomes the hands and feet of Jesus. When faith moves from belief to action


Embracing the Harvest Mentality

So many of us move through life on autopilot, checking boxes, finishing tasks, keeping up with schedules. But what if every moment, every meeting, every conversation, every workplace interaction, was actually Kingdom ground?

What if your job at Teledyne Brown or Toyota Mazda wasn’t just work, but worship? What if your daily routine became your mission field?

That’s the heart of the harvest mentality. It’s not just about what we do on Sunday, it’s how we live on Monday. It’s about seeing every part of our lives as divine opportunity.

Jesus said in John 4:35, “Open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest.” He wasn’t talking about someday, He meant now.

This is the moment. The harvest isn’t coming later, it’s already here. 


Reflecting on God’s Timely Interventions

Let’s be honest, we’ve all told ourselves, “I’ll do it later.” But every time we wait to act on what God is calling us to do, we risk missing a miracle.

The truth is, God is already working. He’s already moving. And He’s inviting us to join Him today.

When we say “yes” in faith, even when the timing feels inconvenient or uncertain, that’s when we see heaven touch earth.


Uncommon Seeds for an Uncommon Harvest

Here’s what’s powerful: God never asks us to give what we don’t have. He asks us to plant what we do have, our time, our talents, our faith, our generosity, and watch what He does with it.

Because in the Kingdom, no seed given goes to waste. 

Every act of giving, every prayer, every moment you serve becomes a catalyst for transformation both in others and in yourself. It’s the divine economy of grace: what you sow into others, God multiplies back into your life.

And that’s what Kingdom Builders is all about. It’s not about equal giving, it’s about equal sacrifice. It’s a movement of radical generosity, building a future where the name of Jesus is lifted higher in every nation, every community, every home.


Preparing for the Prodigals

One of the most moving parts of Jesus’ parables in Luke 15 is that the father never stopped preparing for his son’s return. He didn’t wait until the knock on the door, he kept the calf fed, the robe ready, the heart open.

That’s our call, too.

We’re not waiting hopelessly, we’re waiting expectantly. We’re getting ready for the prodigals to come home, for the broken, the lost, and the weary to find grace again.

This preparation isn’t passive. It's an active faith, a readiness that says, “God, whenever they come, we’ll be ready.”


A Generation Poised for Impact

Generation Z and Alpha are facing challenges like no generation before, but God is raising up a remnant of world-changers among them. Where the enemy has tried to steal purpose, God is planting a calling. Where culture offers confusion, God is revealing truth.

We’re watching a generation awaken to their divine destiny, on college campuses, in their schools, online, in their communities. They’re saying, “If God can use me, then let’s go.”

And He will.


It’s Harvest Time

There’s no doubt about it, this is harvest time. It’s time for the church to rise. It’s time for faith to move from words to action. It’s time for us, every believer, every family, every business, to say, “God, use me.”

Because when we say yes, miracles happen. When we sow, lives change. And when we unite under one Kingdom vision, eternity shifts.

Let’s awaken that harvest mindset, the courage to believe, to give, to serve, and to love like never before.

Because the harvest is ready… and the laborers are rising.
