Good morning from Pastor Glen Brock, Baptist Tabernacle Church, Wendell, North Carolina… “Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore, pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” (Matthew 9:37-38)
The past fourteen years of ministry has been about teaching and preaching “Life-Style” Evangelism! As “Born-Again” Children of God, we have a responsibility to “Share” His Good News and to Live to demonstrate His Grace and Love to others! We are “Called” to Share our Faith and to help navigate folks into a “Saving” relationship with Jesus Christ! Keep this fact in mind: WE are called to be “Harvesters,” and the “Harvest” belongs to God! We are to be the conduit of His Grace, to the Lost and Dying souls that He brings into our paths. I read, somewhere, that we are to be involved in “Gossiping the Gospel!” We need to pray that the Holy Spirit will bring us into the paths of those that God would have us witness to and would have us engaged in the “harvest!” Dear Friends, statistics tell us that, since 1970, 96% of individuals are not saved! Oh my goodness… In a country that is blessed beyond measure and in a society that enjoys the “freedoms” and the Blessings, beyond any nation in history, yet there are a mere 4% that claim to have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ! Friends, the time is NOW! The Harvest is truly GREAT! Pray that God will give you a sense of urgency and a burden for the lost! Pray that the Blessed Holy Spirit will guide you, prepare you, engage you, in sharing Jesus and stopping the “slide towards Hell” of this generation! 2 Peter 3:9 tells us the reality: “The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.” God has provided the means of re-establishing relationship with Him, through the Redeeming Blood of Jesus, and He wants everyone to accept and to participate in this Great Love! Sadly, there will be those who will not come to His Saving Grace Relationship and will die in their sins and will be destined for a “Burning and Eternal Hell!” Please Lord, make us the model, in our lifestyle and our actions and our words, the example of Your Love and Saving Grace, so that we can help others to become “Children of God!” May we be obedient to Your call, and steadfast in our mission, and resolute in our purpose! “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore, pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” Stay Strong, Stay Focused…THE BEST IS YET TO BE!
