This weekend I am in Skien, a city on the eastern part of Norway. I am going to do some teaching for some student at Youth with a Mission training center here in Skien, but most of the time I will spend together with Kristent Fellesskap Skien, a church which is a part of the apostolic work we have in Norway. On the plane from Bergen this morning, I was thinking about the harvest. When harvest is mentioned in the Bible is often together with the word "sickle". "Use the sickle, the harvest is ready". Normally when I have been thinking of the harvest, I have been thinking of numbers. But what does it mean that it is ready to been sickle? Do you now what I think? I think it means that many people are ready to be led into the kingdom today, this week! Yes, I know.;It is easier to think that it means just that the harvest is plentiful, many people.That dos`nt challenge us so much. But if it means that the harvest is full of people that are ready to bring into the Kingdom, today, and are just waiting for us to led them, than we are challenge because our experience and our mind tells us something else. But listen, don't let you mind and your experience lead you, but be led by The Spirit. Let him give us an harvesters eye so that we see the same things as the Lord of the harvest see. When that happens,we don`t just see people, but harvest. Today you meet harvest ( read; people who is ready for you to lead into the Kingdom). God has given you a field that is ready to harvest. Where that field is? Where you are. " Well, I don't know if there is anybody in my family, among my friends, neighbors, people where I work, who are open and ready". Ask the Holy Spirit. Be in his presence and listen.Be sensitive. And when he speaks, ( as He will) our response must be obedience. We have to go and help them into the Kingdom. The harvest is ready.......today.
Hallelujah!!! Do you know what? My phone rang, right now while I was sitting her writing. A woman who is 89 years old wanted help to receive Jesus. I don`t know this woman, but that is not important. Jesus does. Praise the Lord. That was a miracle.
Love from a co-harvester.
