Takeaways

The Great Harvest is a calling for believers to pray for souls.

Idolatry can manifest in our prayer lives when we focus on personal needs.

Understanding the church ages helps us recognize current spiritual trends.

The church must balance tradition with the movement of the Holy Spirit.

Greed is a core issue leading to idolatry in modern society.

True security comes from God, not material possessions.

The gospel requires a heart change, not just a prayer.

Misplaced attachments can lead to idolatry, even in relationships.

We should be excited about the times we live in, not fearful.

Prayer for the nations is essential for the Great Harvest.
