Over Four Billion Souls Are Neglected

May 10, 2016

When God says .......

Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest truly is plentiful, but the laborers are few. Therefore pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest.” (Matthew 9:37, 38 NKJV)

He likened the weary and spiritually hungry crowds that followed Him, to the ripen field ready for harvest. They have been subjected to all kinds of spiritual dehydration from the scorching ungodliness of their time. Just like us today, with religious leaders converting God's business into their own business enterprises, instead of doing God's business to bring the good news to all people. Thereby, neglecting the many peoples of the world - the plentiful harvest, who have been deprived by their wicked rulers, of access to the gospel of salvation and grace by faith in our Lord Jesus Christ.

Yes, the multitudes then, as with the multitudes now in every parts of the world, are ripe for harvest. And every believer who has Jesus living in His heart is sent by The Lord of the harvest. We are all sent with each of our part to participate in the season of harvest. We all have a part to play. Anything counts. There are those who are already in the field, specially in Asia - with latest news of crackdown on underground Churches in China, they need our prayers. As well as the continuing slaughter of our brethren in the Mideast and the Coptic Christians in the northern part of Africa. We can also reinforce our missionaries in Cambodia and other areas of Asia with our material support. Any amount helps and can be channeled through:

As we consider reaching out to the neglected (over 4 billion) souls in Asia who have yet to meet our Lord Jesus Christ, let's reflect on the following passages from the letter of Apostle Paul to the Philippians. The first missionary of the gospel wrote: "I can do all this through him who gives me strength. Yet it was good of you to share in my troubles. Moreover, as you Philippians know, in the early days of your acquaintance with the gospel, when I set out from Macedonia, not one church shared with me in the matter of giving and receiving, except you only; for even when I was in Thessalonica, you sent me aid more than once when I was in need. Not that I desire your gifts; what I desire is that more be credited to your account. (Philippians 4:13-17 NIV)

And I say ... AMEN!
