TIME TO GET TO WORK!
John 4:35 – Devotional
John 4:35
“Lift up your eyes and look out on the fields; for they are ripe and ready to harvest.”
Is it just human nature to want to stay in our warm and snug comfort zone, or is it the method Satan uses to keep us from doing God’s will and working in His harvest fields?
God wants us to move outside of our comfort zone. Inside our zone of comfort we focus most, if not all of our energy on ourselves to the neglect of the needs of those around us.
The harvest fields that Jesus speaks about in this passage are the lost and dying all around us. There are different types of harvest fields, such as wheat or barley. When each variety is ripe all of the grain is gathered at one time.
Regardless of the variety only when the crop is ripe is it picked. It usually requires many trips to complete the harvest. It is the same way with the souls of men and women. Some may be gathered all at once in a mass crusade, while others must be picked one at a time. As we move out to God’s harvest field it is not our comfort zone that is important, but the harvest that awaits us. Are you ready?
Blessings dear hearts! Walk with God today and be a blessing!
