SCRIPTURE: Matthew (NIV) 9:37 Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. 38 Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”
Matthew (NIV) 10:1 He called his twelve disciples to him and gave them authority to drive out evil spirits and to heal every disease and sickness.…
7 As you go, preach this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near.’ 8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received, freely give.
OBSERVATION: If Jesus could see that the harvest was plentiful in His day, what is it today!!! I believe it is harvest time. I believe Jesus is about to return to this world. I believe we are beginning to see an end-time ingathering of souls into the Kingdom!
I have often read of believers who sacrificed their lives to take the gospel to spiritually dark places. They had a vision for a church. They had a love for people. They were serving a Living Lord who had suffered and died for them and for the whole world. Nothing was too great to give for Jesus, even their own lives. Today the seed of their lives is growing and ready for harvest!
APPLICATION: Today in Sierra Leone, the regular SOAP Ministry Team has grown to over 300, and for a three-week crusade to take the SOAP to every city and village it now has about 1100 ready to move out! The goal is 1500! So many Muslims have accepted Jesus that one of their leaders in New York City started a “Go Fund Me” account to take a crusade (the end of December) to Nigeria, Sierra Leone, and Liberia (and other places in Africa). He wants to stop Muslims from turning to Christianity!
PRAYER: Lord, I pray for every SOAP reader to be stirred by the Holy Spirit to pray for Africa. You are moving in a special way today. You are re-writing the book of Acts. Provide for the needs of paper and ink, transportation, food and water, etc. Holy Spirit, continue to move, and increase Your activity throughout Africa and Asia. Amen
