Summary

🚨 Listen to me—it costs NOT to be the boss! 🚨

Look at David—if he had stayed a shepherd, if he had let fear stop him, if he had let Goliath do all the talking, Israel would have stayed in defeat! But David knew the cost of not stepping up was greater than the cost of facing the giant.

When you refuse to lead, when you shrink back, when you let fear run your life, you're not just losing money—you’re losing destiny! God called you to be the head and not the tail, above and not beneath (Deut. 28:13)! But if you don’t move in faith, you forfeit the blessing.

David ran to the battle because he understood: IT COSTS NOT TO BE THE BOSS! And that’s exactly where so many of us are—stuck in mediocrity, waiting for someone else to lead, afraid to take control of what God has already promised.

🔥 Are you active in your faith, or are you sitting back, reserved, waiting for the "right time?"
🔥 Are you settling for good enough when God called you to EXCELLENCE?
🔥 It’s time to get up, get active, and walk in your purpose!

This sermon is a gut check! Stop living in the bare minimum and step into the greatness God has for you. God doesn’t do average—neither should you!
