April 21, 2023 - John 4:35-38

“As the crowds emerged from the village, Jesus said to his disciples, “Why would you say, ‘The harvest is another four months away’? Look at all the people coming—now is harvest time! Their hearts are like vast fields of ripened grain—ready for a harvest. Everyone who reaps these souls for eternal life will receive a reward. Both those who plant spiritual seeds and those who reap the spiritual harvest will celebrate together with great joy! And this confirms the saying, ‘One sows the seed and another reaps the harvest.’ I have sent you out to harvest a field that you haven’t planted, where many others have labored long and hard before you. And now you are privileged to profit from their labors and reap the harvest.” John 4:35-38 TPT


Jesus, it is amazing as we read through the Bible the heart you have for your people. We can see it everywhere - New and Old Testament alike. Your purpose for coming was to restore humankind back into a right relationship with you. You gave your life for this purpose, and it is the mission that you have given to us – to all of us. This wasn’t a call that you gave just to those you have called into ministry or to live as missionaries. No, you have called us all to be harvesters of your great harvest. The thing about a harvest is it comes in a season. If you wait too long to pick it, it expires. It breaks my heart when I think about the millions of souls who have died without knowing you. How much more does it break yours? All because there wasn’t a harvester available to pick them when they were ready for harvest.


Lord don’t let this happen on our watch. Help us change our priorities to line up with yours. Help us not get so wrapped up in our own lives that we miss what you want to do around us. Help us tune into your spirit and always say, “yes” to your leading. Turn us into productive harvesters for your glory.


In Jesus name, amen.
