John in a mass crusade in Pakistan
Isaiah 6:1-8
In the YEAR THAT KING UZZIAH DIED, I saw the Lord, HIGH AND EXULTED , SEATED ON A THRONE; and the train of his robe filled the temple. 2 Above him were seraphim, each with six wings: With two wings they covered their faces, with two they covered their feet, and with two they were flying. 3 And they were calling to one another:
“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; THE WHOLE EARTH IS FULL OF HIS GLORY.”4 At the sound of their voices the doorposts and thresholds shook and the temple was filled with smoke.5 “Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.”6 Then one of the seraphim flew to me with a live coal in his hand, which he had taken with tongs from the altar. 7 With it he touched my mouth and said, “See, this has touched your lips; your guilt is taken away and your sin atoned for.”
8 Then I heard the voice of the Lord saying, “WHOM SHALL WE SEND? And who will go for us?”
And I said, “HERE AM I, SEND ME!”
Matthew 9:35-37
35 Jesus went through all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, proclaiming the good news of the kingdom and healing every disease and sickness. 36 When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were HARASSED AND HELPLESS, like sheep without a shepherd. 37 Then he said to his disciples, “THE HARVEST IS RIPE but the workers are few.
THE HARVEST IS RIPE
Matt 24:3 - As Jesus was sitting on the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately. “Tell us,” they said, “when will this happen, and what will be the sign of your coming and of the end of the age?”

14 This Gospel of The Kingdom must be Proclaimed in ALL Nations – ETHNOS Means; ‘Ethnic groups’
17,433 Ethnic groups
Unreached people groups means less than 2% Christianity
Unengaged people groups means no one has ever preached the gospel
In November 2005 there were 3,201 Unengaged people groups left
As of January 2022 only 144 Unengaged people groups left
The Work is NOT done… Still 7k ppl groups with less than 2% Christians (2.7 Billion people don’t know Jesus)
Open your eyes to The Harvest
John 4 :35
“You say 4 months more and then the Harvest?”… Jesus says “Open your eyes and look at the
Fields. They are ripe for the harvest!”
The Harvest is ripe -But the labourers are few
Luke 10:2
“The Harvest plentiful but the Labourers are few. Ask (Demoi – beg) The Lord of the
Harvest , therefore, to SEND (Ekbolla – Cast out)
THE WORKERS ARE FEW, YOU ARE THE SOLUTION…
YOU ARE A MISSIONARY!
Being a missionary is not a geographical location … Being a missionary is a heart conviction and commitment to the GREAT COMMISSION!
The Harvest is ripe and Know the Time – Redeem it!
Eph 5:15 – Redeem the time
Kronos – Chronological
Kairos – Appointed, Ordained
Redeem – Is an ACTION word
The Power Of An Invitation
Luke 19:1-10
Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. 2 A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy. 3 He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the crowd.4 So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see him, since Jesus was coming that way.5 When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today.” 6 So he came down at once and welcomed him gladly.
7 All the people saw this and began to mutter, “He has gone to be the guest of a sinner.”8 But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount.”9 Jesus said to him, “TODAY SALVATION HAS COME TO THIS HOUSE, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham. 10 For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.”
