Witness And Win Souls In God's Harvest



     Today, Brother Bob wants to remind my friends everywhere to witness and tell lost sinners all over this earth to get saved, repent, decide to stop sinning, confess that Jesus is God, and believe the gospel that Jesus died on the cross for you, was buried, and rose again. Just say every day I am crucified with Jesus Christ and covered by the blood of Jesus. Tell the devil that the blood of Jesus (the same yesterday, to day, and for ever) has overcome and defeated you devil, evil must pass over me, and that the blood of Jesus has cleansed me from all my sins.

     Pictured above Psalm 126:5 says They that sow in tears shall reap in joy. He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed (the Word of God), shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves (saved saints) with him. The above scripture promises that if we sow the precious seed (Luke 8:11 says that the precious seed is the Word of God) and preach Jesus to lost souls everywhere like Brother Bob on this internet, we will win souls to Jesus and reap in joy. Isaiah 58:1 tells us to Cry aloud, spare not, and lift up thy voice like a trumpet, and shew my people their transgression, and the house of Jacob their sins.

     We need to quit being so busy and selfishly occupied with our own lives, and start being concerned about the millions of lost sinners around us, witnessing the Lord Jesus and offering salvation to unsaved multitudes all around us. Pictured above, have you told the Fed Ex man about Jesus? Have you told the barber, the UPS man, the laundry attendant, the grocery store bagger, the waitress, and your next door neighbor about Jesus? Tell people everywhere to get saved, repent, decide to stop sinning, confess that Jesus is God, and believe the gospel that Jesus died on the cross for them, was buried, and rose again.


BLESSED QUESTION TO ASK LOST SINNERS WHEN WITNESSING JESUS
IF GOD ASKED YOU WHY SHOULD I LET YOU INTO HEAVEN,
WHAT WOULD YOU SAY?

     Most people give the wrong answer to the above question.  Many people will tell you Jesus will let me into heaven because I'm a good person, I go to church, I was baptized, I put money in the offering plate every Sunday and helped the poor, I'm a good Catholic and love the pope, I don't hurt anyone, and I pray all the time. Tell them all these things will send you to hell. The only way God will let you into heaven is if you get saved, repent, decide to stop sinning, confess that Jesus is God. and believe the gospel that Jesus died on the cross for you, was buried, and rose again.

     If I walk down a church aisle, shake a six foot spiritual icicle's hand, answer some questions, do some good works, get dunked in the pool, and blend in with the crowd, it won't save me. It takes Jesus to save us. Not the blood of Jesus plus water, not the blood of Jesus plus works, not the blood of Jesus plus wafers; But it's the blood of Jesus plus nothing that will save you. Jesus said at John 14:6 I am the way, the truth, and the life: No man cometh unto the Father, but by me. Acts 4:12 says Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name (Jesus) under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved. Finally Hebrews 7:25 says Wherefore He (The Father) is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by Him (Jesus), seeing He ever liveth to make intercession for them.



     Let's study the two scriptures pictured above. First, take time to say Matthew 9:35 And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when He saw the multitudes, He was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Then saith He unto His disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that He will send forth labourers into His harvest.  

     Friends, be like Jesus and when you see multitudes of lost sinners around you all over this earth, be moved with compassion because these lost sheep have no shepherd (Jesus) to save them from the troubles of this world. According to the above scripture, God sees a harvest of lost sinners. If you look up the Greek definition for the word harvest, God will say it's time to gather men into the kingdom of God because lost sinners are ripe and ready to be saved and harvested into the kingdom of God.

     We need to pray that Jesus raises up labourers (saints who teach the Lord Jesus to lost sinners) who are not selfish but have compassion and are concerned about lost sinners. Jude 22 says And of some have compassion, making a difference: And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh. James 5:20 says Let him know, that he which converteth the sinner from the error of his way, shall save a soul from death, and shall hide a multitude of sins. 

     And John 4:35 says Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes and look on the fields; for they are white (ripe) already to harvest (where men are ready to hear about the Lord Jesus). According to this scripture don't say there are four more months before I need to witness Jesus to lost sinners in God's harvest. Right now witness Jesus daily to lost sinners (sow the seed Word of God) and God says you will reap with joy when you start winning multitudes to the Lord Jesus. 

     God promises that when we witness Jesus to lost sinners and gather sheaves (bundles of grain or saints that got saved from our witnessing), the Lord Jesus will gather the  wheat (saved saints) into his garner (storehouse) that is the kingdom of God. John the Baptist said at Matthew 3:11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but He that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: He shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire: Whose fan is in His hand, and He (Jesus) will throughly purge His floor, and gather His wheat (saved saints) into the garner; but He will burn up the chaff (unsaved sinners that rejected Jesus) with unquenchable fire.

     When was the last time you personally witnessed about the Lord Jesus to a lost soul? Are you praying for God to save anyone? Do we have compassion and care about lost souls all around us? We must realize that if we don't witness about the Lord Jesus, millions of souls will perish and go to a devil's hell for all eternity. We need to have a desire to see the unsaved saved; We need to have a prayer list for the unconverted. Daniel 12:3 says And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness (save souls) as the stars for ever and ever.

     It's our responsibility, our calling from God, our privilege, our scriptural admonition and declaration to be involved in God's harvest and go out and win lost souls to the Lord Jesus. Jesus said at Mark 16:15 Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. And Jesus also said at Acts 1:8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses (tell people everywhere about the Lord Jesus) unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth. In other words a sign that you are saved and have the Holy Ghost is that you want to witness Jesus everywhere to the uttermost part of the earth.


PICTURED ABOVE WE SEE THE VALUE OF A SOUL

A soul is worth more than owning the entire world according to Mark 8:36
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world,
and lose his own soul?

DL Moody said he wouldn't talk to a man over five minutes
unless the things of eternity were brought up

     I pray in Jesus name anyone forevermore reading this will become involved in God's harvest and witness everywhere about the Lord Jesus to multitudes of lost souls. When we all get to heaven, the only thing that will matter is what we did for Jesus; all selfish worldly pleasures will fade away.  Proverbs 11:30 says The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls is wise. Forgive us Lord Jesus for our coldness, slothfulness, slackness, and lack of a burden to save lost souls.

     And remember that Luke 15:10 says Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God, over one sinner that repenteth. In other words innumerable angels, saints, and the Lord Jesus rejoice when just one sinner repents. Every saint should win at least one soul to our Lord Jesus every year. When we go to church, instead of worrying about our tie, shoes, belt, haircut, and what other people are saying and wearing, start being concerned about lost souls around you and witness Jesus everywhere. Let's get our faces out of our cellphones, texts, and facebook while we look around with concern for lost sinners around us. 

     We might say like Lot 2 Peter 2:7 We are vexed with the filthy conversation of the wicked (lost sinners around us). We are righteous men dwelling among them, in seeing and hearing, vexing our righteous soul from day to day with their unlawful deeds. But we need to stop being vexed about these lost sinners around us and start having compassion on them by preaching the Lord Jesus to save lost multitudes. Remember before we were saved, we were also like these lost souls according to Titus 3:3 foolish, disobedient, deceived, serving divers lusts and pleasures, living in malice and envy, hateful, and hating one another. But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared, we became new creatures when old things were passed away and all things became new according to 2 Corinthians 5:17 where the blood of Jesus washed away all our sins.

     The greatest responsibility ever given to men is to go out into God's harvest and win lost souls to Jesus. Life is empty when people are selfish and spend money only on themselves. Selfish people eventually see a day when they realize their life was worthless where they can't take anything with them to heaven. But when anyone lives to win lost souls to our Lord Jesus, life has purpose and there is a joy in living. 

     The bible promises that we build up treasure in heaven when we give to the poor and witness Jesus everywhere. According to Psalm 41 if we just consider the poor (take time to listen to and say encouraging words of hope to everyone around us), the Lord will deliver us from trouble, preserve us, keep us alive, bless us, deliver us from our enemies, strengthen us when we are discouraged, and keep us out of a sick bed. Proverbs 19:17 says He that hath pity upon the poor lendeth unto the Lord; and that which he hath given will he pay him again. Note that if you just pity (not pay) the poor, you lend to God and will get paid. Galatians 6:9 says And let us not be weary in well doing: for in due season we shall reap, if we faint not. Only what we do for Jesus lasts. I see you all out there rejoicing with your sheaves. Jesus bless you all.

     I pray in Jesus name that this bible study blesses multitudes everywhere with great joy, peace, and strength.
