This message is about radical obedience–the kind of faith that moves before it fully understands, and lets go of everything safe to grab hold of everything sacred. So the question today is simple: What plow is God asking you to burn? What comfort is He calling you to leave behind so you can step into what's next? Calling begins where comfort ends.

Revival doesn't begin with crowds; it begins with a decision. In 1 Kings 20, when Ahab asked the prophet, "Who will start the battle?" God replied, "You will." Every move of God starts when someone decides to move forward in faith. What is God calling you to start? One step of obedience can begin your next breakthrough.

The truth is—every believer is called to live a supernatural life. You don't have to hold a title to carry God's power. Every follower of Jesus can be a miracle worker, a healer, a bringer of good news, and a giver of hope. This isn't reserved for the few; it's an invitation for all. Life with the Holy Spirit is meant to be exciting, empowered, and miraculous. This is what normal Christianity looks like—it's called revival.

Courage isn't a feeling, it's a decision rooted in belief. Too many of us wait for the right moment, the right emotion, or the right conditions to be bold—but that's not courage, that's convenience. Real courage is acting on faith before you feel it. Faith doesn't start with experience; it starts with belief that shapes behavior. What you believe will always determine how you behave. So don't wait for courage to rise up—walk in it now.

We are living in a time of great shaking yet also great awakening. Revival isn't coming someday; revival is now. From the book of Acts to our generation, God has always moved when His people humble themselves, pray, and seek His face. Before He heals the land, He heals our hearts. Revival doesn't begin in culture; it begins in the Church. It's time to wake up, pray again, and believe again because God is sounding an alarm before an awakening.

Real hope isn't anchored in something—it's anchored in Someone. Unlike optimism, which is based on circumstances, biblical hope is rooted in a Person, Jesus Christ. Optimism says things might get better, but hope says God is faithful, and He will finish what He started. Even when life feels heavy, when we feel weak, powerless, or ready to quit…hope reminds us that the fire refines the gold, pressure produces diamonds, and struggle builds beauty.
