Pray Earnestly to The Lord of the Harvest

Hello Rock Church,

With the Billion Soul Harvest conference happening this week, the Mario Murillo Crusade, and what we have been feeling as a church concerning discipleship, I have found myself thinking and praying what Jesus says in Matt 9:35-38 and in Luke 10:2 concerning the Harvest.

‘[35] And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction. [36] When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. [37] Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; [38] therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.” ‘
Matthew 9:35-38

‘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

These evangelistic events are the tip of the iceberg for what God wants to do. They’re a foreshock, or a prelude to the great things God has in store. As we remember the prophetic words, and are led by Holy Spirit, we believe that God wants to pour out His Spirit across Colorado. 

Each of us has a part to play–an assignment for this season. I want to encourage us to stir up ourselves in the Lord and ask for a spirit of prayer and intercession so we can pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest. 

Praying earnestly isn’t something we just stumble into. It takes intentionality and the power and strength of God at work in our hearts and minds to pray for His will. So, ask Him today to give us that empowering grace. Ask Him to strengthen our knees for intercession, and our hands for prayer. 

We look forward to seeing you soon,
Pastor Andrew and The Rock staff
