9:38 - God’s People Praying for God’s Workers
Billions live beyond the current spread of the Gospel. This problem of nations full of sheep without a Good Shepherd existed in Jesus’ day as well. Seeing the shepherd-less crowds and feeling for them, Jesus told his followers to ask the Lord “to send out workers” to the people in His harvest field.
God’s original plan and promises to reach all nations on earth remains the same. He still intends to use His people to work out His promises. Jesus shared the Father’s heart for the nations and entrusted His disciples to do something about it. Before telling them to go, He asked them to pray.
What would help you pray regularly for the Lord “to send out workers” for the harvest? Setting your alarm for 9:38 can remind you of Matthew 9 and Jesus’ commandment to ask. Then at 9:38 you can pray, as Jesus directed His disciples, for workers to go out to God’s worldwide harvest field.
Scripture
About this Plan
Jesus said, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few” (Matthew 9:37). Billions around the world have never heard God’s Good News. Yet from the beginning God promised to reach and bless all nations on earth. In the days to come you’ll follow Jesus’ lead and ask the Lord to send His workers—maybe even you—to people God loves all over the earth.
