Matthew 9:37 "Then saith he unto his disciples,The harvest truly is plenteous,but the labourers are few";
In this time of the self named, self famed, and the self proclaimed religions, God is calling humbled servants to be tools to work in His garden of garden of salvation.But many have become so self absorbed, that we have lost track of the purpose of our salvation.It seems that we now spend more time trying to convience the world of our salvation, that we have neglected our duty of proclaiming that there is a Savior.God has chosen us to bear much fruit ,and fruit that will last.
Jesus said "the harvest is truly plentiful,but the labourers are few".The world is full of lost souls, but there dosn't seem to be enough workers in the field to lead them to Christ.God saved us,that we might be labourers of the harvest.God saved us that we might be witnesses to the lost that he is the savior, that he will provide, that he is the way to peace and rest, he is the truth that makes one free, and he is the life everlasting.But the focus has been lost.The reason Jesus said go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature, is because there are wolves in sheep clothing among us, and since we don't know who is who, he said preach it to every creature.God is seeking labourers, servants who are willing to deny self and submitt to the will of the Father,for the good of the Kingdom. Labourers who will walk out in blind faith and trust his word to do what it was designed to do,to totally depend on him, as we work the field of harvest.Someone who will share not only his words but his truths in love, not to hurt feelings, but to convict hearts and convert souls.
We must take his message,His word, to His people, that He shed His blood for, that they may receive His salvation, and enjoy eternal life His kingdom. Now we are not to just proclaim the message with our lips, but we must spread the gospel with our life, by becoming a living example of the message we proclaim.Standing solely on the truth of his word, trusting in the power of his spirit,and submitt totally to his will.Let us become labourers of the harvest, that all in darkness might be drawn to the light and ask "what must I do to be saved".This calling truly isn't about us or the many names we give ourselves to impress others, it is about how Jesus died on a cross, to pay for the sins of the world,and us believers taking this good news to a dying world that all who hears might believe, and believing they might have everlasting life.
