Matthew 9:37 "Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few";
In this era of the self named, self famed, and the self proclaimed religions, it is hard to find humbled servants to be tools to work the Lords garden of salvation. We have become so self absorbed, that we have lost track of the purpose of our salvation. It seems that we spend more time trying to convince the world of our salvation, that we have neglected our duty of proclaiming that there is a Savior who is still saving.
Jesus said "the harvest is truly plentiful, but the laborer's are few". The world is full of lost souls, but there doesn't seem to be enough workers in the field to lead them to Christ. God saved us, that we might be laborer's of the harvest. God saved us that we might be witnesses to the lost that he is the savior. 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 we don't know who is who. God is seeking laborers, servants who are willing to deny self and submit to the will of the Father, for the good of the Kingdom. Laborers who will walk out in blind faith, and trust his word to do what it was designed to do, as we labor in the field of harvest. Laborers who will share his words and his truths in love to convict hearts and convert souls.
We must take his message, His word, to his people, which He shed His blood for, that the lost might receive salvation. 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. Be willing to stand on the truth of his word, trust in the power of his spirit and become laborers of the harvest, that all in darkness might be drawn to the light and ask "what must I do to be saved". Our work is to tell all we see how Jesus died on a cross, to pay for the sins of the world, rose the third day morning with all power in His hands, and bring in the sheaves.....
