In Luke chapter 10 verse 2, we read this. And he said to them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the labourers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out labourers into his harvest."
Jesus is saying people are ready, they’re ready to receive him. Already God has been working in their hearts. Already people are desperate for God, whether they’ll admit it or not.
And it may feel like we’re not making any progress in the lives of the people that we meet as we share our faith, as we just share life with each other. But whether or not that seems to be true, we can still pray that God is going to send labourers to bring in that harvest.
The more people who accept Jesus Christ as their Lord, the more people there will be in heaven. The more people get to live in eternity, in bliss with God.
So this is something that we all want, isn’t it? But we don’t all feel able to speak out what we know to be true.
And Jesus says to you, if that’s you, if that’s how you’re feeling, at the very least, you may pray. You may pray that others will be empowered and pray that you will be empowered too.
We don’t have to be strong and mighty. We don’t have to be eloquent. We don’t have to have a YouTube channel to speak to people about Jesus. We just need to be willing. We need to be willing to take that risk. We need to be willing to look foolish because the reward is worth it. We are talking about eternal lives here.
Jesus, please help us not to be ashamed of the gospel because the gospel is good news for everyone. God, we pray that you will send out those workers who are going to bring in the harvest of souls. So that we may together in our millions and billions be united in worship of our Father God when you return in your glory. Amen.
