Guest speaker Gary Burd delivers a compelling and passionate message, urging believers to shift their perspective from passively waiting for a great revival to actively engaging in "hand-to-hand combat" for the Kingdom. He draws parallels between Jesus's ministry and a spiritual warfare fought not with "atomic bombs," but with personal, one-on-one encounters and acts of service.

Burd highlights three key takeaways for believers in these urgent times:

-- A Sense of Urgency: He emphasizes that "time is short" and the church has lost its sense of urgency. Christians must prioritize actions with eternal value and recognize that the world, as we know it, is coming to an end.

-- Operating with an Anointing of a King: Burd distinguishes between the roles of prophet, priest, and king, arguing that many Christians shy away from the kingly anointing to rule and reign. He challenges listeners to be kings who defend the defenseless and provide for the poor, just as Proverbs 31:8-9 describes.

-- Observable Good Works: He stresses that the church's good works must be seen by the world. Quoting 1 Peter 2:12 , he encourages believers to live honorably so that their actions, not just their words, will be a testimony to those who don't know Christ. He shares stories of his ministry's tangible acts of service as a powerful example.
