Summary:
In this powerful message from Luke chapter 10, we explore Jesus' urgent call for laborers in God's harvest field. Just as farmers depend on weather for their crops, the kingdom of God faces a unique challenge—the harvest of souls is plentiful, but the workers are few. Jesus sends out seventy-two disciples ahead of Him, demonstrating how God raises up and commissions spiritual leaders through the Holy Spirit. The message reminds us that following Christ requires total commitment, leaving behind excuses and divided loyalties. As we witness a spiritual awakening in our generation, with people genuinely seeking God for the first time, we're called not only to pray for spiritual leaders but to consider whether God might be calling us to lead. The church needs laborers who will share the gospel, support one another in unity, and step into leadership roles. This isn't just about professional ministers—every believer is invited to work alongside Christ in His kingdom, making disciples and reaching the lost.
Question:
As you consider the harvest fields around you and the spiritual leaders God has placed in your life, ask yourself this: What would it look like for you to move from simply praying for more laborers to becoming the answer to that prayer, and what first step is God calling you to take this week in sharing the gospel or supporting those who lead?
