40 Days of Praying - Day 9

Evangelism Training - Pray God will bring more of our church family to be equipped to share our faith in the Permian Basin.

Luke 10:1-2 After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go. 2 He told them, "The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.

It's never been for lack of harvest. Never. Everywhere we look around the world or across the street God is able and willing to call people out of darkness. What is lacking is workers--passionate, willing, obedient, trained workers. That's why we are taught to pray for workers. We don't pray for harvest today, we pray for workers. If men and women will offer themselves to be equipped, God will bring a harvest.

O God send workers. Send workers for the oilfields, the classrooms, the board rooms, the neighborhoods, and any other place we go. Don't make them just ministry professionals. Send them out from every walk of life into every walk of life. Stir them with an unquenchable desire to learn how to tell people about Jesus in a way they can understand from someone they can trust. For Jesus' sake we pray. Amen.

Grace.
