Get Close to Jesus — Listen to His Heartbeat

Get Close to Jesus — Listen to His Heartbeat Bible References: James 4:8, John 13:23, Psalm 103:7, 1 John 4:8, 1 John 4:16 There is a difference between knowing about Jesus and truly knowing Him. A relationship grows through communication, time, and a desire to be close. God is not hiding from you or keeping you at a distance. He invites you to draw near to Him! Don't wait for someone else to spoon-feed you spiritually—get hungry for God yourself. Take the first step, open your heart, spend time in His presence, and wrap yourself tightly around Jesus. Get so close that you begin to recognize His voice and understand His heart. Jesus knows the hearts of men, and He desires a genuine relationship with you. Don't settle for knowing His works when you can seek to know His ways. The Father has opened the door for you to come near. How hungry are you for His presence? Get close to Jesus, draw near to His heart, and learn to listen to His heartbeat! In Christ, Pastor Stacey Carver Harvest Time International Church https://www.theharvestchurchonline.com

The King Is Coming — Recognize the Signs!

The King Is Coming — Recognize the Signs! Speaker: Stacey Carver Scripture References: 2 Peter 3:1–9, John 14:3, Matthew 24:36, Luke 21:28, Amos 3:7, Ezekiel 36:24, Ezekiel 37:1–14, Ezekiel 37:21–22, Isaiah 66:8, Zechariah 2:8, Zechariah 12:2–3, Matthew 24:3–8, Matthew 24:37 DATE: 10-11-26 Jesus promised that He would come again, and God’s Word has not failed. Even when scoffers mock the promise of His return, we must remain watchful and grounded in Scripture. On May 14, 1948, Israel was reborn as a nation in a single day—a historic event that many students of Bible prophecy connect with the signs of the last days. Jesus described the events leading up to His return as birth pains, reminding us to pay attention and not lose heart as the world experiences turmoil. We do not know the day or the hour, but we are called to recognize the signs, lift up our heads, and live ready for our coming King. The question is not whether Jesus will keep His promise, but whether we will be ready when He comes. The King is coming—stay awake, stay faithful, and keep looking up!

Stay Connected to the Vine

Stay Connected to the Vine Speaker: Stacey Carver Scripture References: John 15:1–8, Galatians 5:22, Matthew 7:16–20 DATE: 10-04-26 The branch cannot produce life on its own—it must stay connected to the vine. Jesus is the True Vine, and He is our source of life, strength, and fruitfulness. In these last days, we cannot afford to become disconnected from His presence. We need to abide in Him, remain in His Word, and stay sensitive to the voice of the Holy Spirit. The question is not whether God wants to be present in our lives, but how much of His presence are we willing to pursue? The closer we stay connected to Jesus, the more His life flows through us and the more fruit we will produce. A healthy branch shows evidence that it is connected to the vine. Our lives should show the fruit of the Spirit and give evidence that Jesus is living through us. Stay connected. Abide in Him. Don't let the distractions of this world pull you away from the source of your life. In Christ, Pastor Stacey Carver Harvest Time International Church https://www.theharvestchurchonline.com

Perfect Peace — Peace in the Storm

Perfect Peace — Peace in the Storm Speaker: Sophia Carver Scripture References: John 16:33, Philippians 4:6–7, Isaiah 54:10, Isaiah 26:3, Colossians 3:15 DATE: 09-27-26 Human peace often depends on our circumstances. When everything is going well and there are no problems, it is easy to feel peaceful. But the peace of God is different. God gives us a peace that does not depend on what is happening around us. His peace is not something we earn, manufacture, or make happen—it is a gift that comes from His presence within us. We have a covenant of peace with God, and His Spirit lives within those who follow Him. Even in the middle of trouble, uncertainty, or storms, we can have peace because we know who holds our future. Keep your mind fixed on the Lord, bring your worries to Him, and allow His peace to rule in your heart. The world may offer temporary peace, but Jesus gives us a peace that can remain when everything around us is shaking.

Worship in Spirit and in Truth

Worship in Spirit and in Truth Speaker: Tim Jackson Scripture References: John 4:23–24, John 16:33, Revelation 12:11, 1 Chronicles 29:10, Matthew 10:30, John 7:38, James 4:10 DATE: 09-20-26 Don’t just go through the motions—seek the goodness of the Lord with your whole heart. True worship is more than what happens in a church service; it is a lifestyle of surrender, humility, and obedience. Sometimes God will allow us to walk through seasons of isolation so He can work on the areas of our lives that we have been avoiding. He wants to fill the potholes, repair the broken places, and prepare us for what He has ahead. When we humble ourselves before the Lord, we make room for Him to change us from the inside out. Worship Him when things are going well and when you are walking through the storm. Let the Holy Spirit become a river of living water flowing through you. Don't settle for empty religion—worship God in Spirit and in Truth, and allow Him to have every part of your life.

Pride — Look in the Mirror

Pride — Look in the Mirror Speaker: Jeremy Standard Scripture References: John 4:39, Romans 10:14, John 14:12, John 3:3, Hebrews 9:27, Romans 6:1–2, Ezekiel 3:18 DATE: 09-16-26 Pride can be easy to recognize in someone else, but much harder to recognize in ourselves. Satan is a liar, and he will use the lust of the flesh, pride, and deception to pull us away from God’s will. Sometimes the wisest answer to a question we cannot answer is simply to remain silent rather than pretend we know everything. Humility means being willing to admit, “I don’t know,” “I was wrong,” or “I need God.” We are not finished products—God is still working in us. Instead of looking around at everyone else’s faults, we need to allow the Holy Spirit to examine our own hearts. Pride says, “I know best.” Humility says, “Lord, teach me.” Keep your heart humble, your eyes on Jesus, and remember that God is faithful to finish the work He has begun in you.

Sow the Seeds — Tell Your Story

Sow the Seeds — Tell Your Story Speaker: Stacey Carver Scripture References: John 4:39, Romans 10:14, John 14:12, John 3:3, Hebrews 9:27, Romans 6:1–2, Ezekiel 3:18 DATE: 09-13-26 Every believer has a story of what Jesus has done in their life, and that testimony can become a seed of faith in someone else. We are called to have compassion for the lost, go where people are, and boldly share the Good News. We may never know what God will do with the seed we plant or the testimony we share. Someone may be waiting to hear about Jesus from you. So sow the seed, give your testimony, and remember that the harvest belongs to God. In Christ, Pastor Stacey Carver Harvest Time International Church https://www.theharvestchurchonline.com

Count the Cost — All the Way In

Count the Cost — All the Way In Speaker: Stacey Carver Scripture References: Luke 14:25–33, Matthew 24:13 DATE: 09-06-26 Following Jesus is more than making a decision—it is a commitment to go all the way. Discipleship requires us to die to self, pick up our cross, and follow Christ even when the journey becomes difficult. Disciples are not simply born; they are made through surrender, obedience, sacrifice, and perseverance. We must be willing to leave behind whatever stands between us and God and remain faithful to the finish. Count the cost, make the commitment, and don’t turn back. Whatever you start with God, determine in your heart that you will finish strong. In Christ, Pastor Stacey Carver Harvest Time International Church https://www.theharvestchurchonline.com

In Power — Be a God Pleaser

In Power — Be a God Pleaser Speaker: Stacey Carver Scripture References: 1 Corinthians 2:1–5, 1 Corinthians 4:20, 1 Corinthians 12:3, John 8:12, Acts 1:1 DATE: 09-02-26 We are not called to live for the approval of people—we are called to please God. The Gospel is not simply words; it carries the power to transform lives. We must be willing to step outside the walls, reach people where they are, and carry the light of Christ into a world that needs hope. God’s Word is alive and powerful, and Jesus is the Light of the World. Step out with water-walking faith, trust God beyond what you can see, and let His power work through you. In Christ, Pastor Stacey Carver Harvest Time International Church

The Gospel of the Kingdom — Be Kingdom Minded

The Gospel of the Kingdom — Be Kingdom Minded Speaker: Stacey Carver Scripture References: Colossians 1:13, 1 Timothy 6:15, Revelation 19:16, 2 Corinthians 4:4, John 18:36, Romans 12:2, Matthew 3:1–2, John 3:3, Philippians 3:20, John 17:14–16, Matthew 4:17, Matthew 10:7–8, 1 Corinthians 4:20, Matthew 6:33, Acts 1:3 DATE: 07-26-26 Jesus didn't come to establish a denomination—He came proclaiming the Kingdom of God. As followers of Christ, we are called to be Kingdom-minded, living under the authority of the King of Kings and advancing His Kingdom on earth. The kingdoms of this world operate by different values, but God's Kingdom is built on truth, righteousness, and the power of the Holy Spirit. Don't let the god of this world blind your vision. Be transformed by God's Word, seek first His Kingdom, and remember that you must be born again to enter it. The King's business is the Kingdom, and every believer has been called to preach and demonstrate the Gospel of the Kingdom.
