And he said to them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”
Luke 10:2
Lord,
You commanded these 72 to serious prayer for Your harvest field to be filled with needed laborers, even as You sent them to do powerful ministry, serving in Your name. Today, we Your people, have not always served You with this same prayer driving us.
Forgive our narrow-minded view of the kingdom. Forgive our Christian consumerism, selfishness, and “me-first” thinking. Move us to serve and see the bigger need for laborers in a plentiful world-wide harvest. As You supply laborers, may we together reap what the gospel has sown and You are nurturing!
May the day to day circumstances we each face become kingdom-expanding harvests as You save souls. Keep us harvest obsessed, working, unified, and willing to train all willing new hands for Your harvest, O Lord of the harvest!
Amen
