As Jesus traveled to Jerusalem from Galilee for the last time, He commissioned seventy-two disciples whom He sent ahead of Him in pairs to every town. It reminds us about our responsibility to join the task of sharing the good news with those who have not yet heard.
Jesus instructed these seventy disciples, and to all all of us, to ask God to send out more laborers. Why must we pray because this is the Lord’s work. It is through prayer that we will see that there is great potential in the harvest. It is through prayer that we will ask for the Lord of the harvest to send forth labourers.
The need for reaching many people as quickly as possible with the gospel is urgent. We have the capacity to make God rejoice by our faithful ministry. We must remember that when carry the message of the gospel to others and do a favour for Jesus, we bring joy to the heart of Jesus. Are we ready to do a favour for Jesus by bringing the joy of the Gospel to ALL?
“Cry out with joy to God, all the earth.” (Psalm 65)
