1 Valuing the Harvest But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth. Acts 1:8 NKJV On the other side of our obedience is 10s of 1000s of souls being redeemed. Bishop Garry Bryant Blessed is the man whose strength is in You, Whose heart is set on pilgrimage. God has a Vision God has a Desire God gave a Command Psalm 84:5 NKJV ****************************************** God s Vision For the earth will be filled With the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, As the waters cover the sea. Habakkuk 2:14 NKJV 1
2 God s Desire After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could number, of all nations, tribes, peoples, and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, with palm branches in their hands God s Command Revelation 7:9 NKJV Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Matthew 28:19-20 NKJV And He said to them, Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Mark 16:15 NKJV So Jesus said to them again, As the Father has sent Me, I also send you. John 20:21 NKJV We must begin looking at God s Vision & God s Desire as Our Command! ************************************************ What is God s Command? GO! 2
3 Make Disciples! To Help Us Understand God s Word uses agricultural analogies A sower went out to sow seed Luke 8:5 The fields are white John 4:35 sells all that he has and buys that field Matthew 13:44-46 Tree that does not bear fruit is cut down. Luke 3:9 I planted, Apollos watered, but God gave the increase. I Corinthians 3:6 Parable of the Sower Mark 4:26 NKJV 26 And He said, The kingdom of God is as if a man should scatter seed on the ground, 27 and should sleep by night and rise by day, and the seed should sprout and grow, he himself does not know. 28 For the earth yields crops by itself: first the blade, then the head, after that the full grain in the head. 29 But when the grain ripens, immediately he puts in the sickle, because the harvest has come. 3
4 Farming NEVER Stops! 4
5 Romans 3:23 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, Romans 6:23 for the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 5:8 but God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 5
6 Romans 10:9 if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. Acts 2:38-47 NKJV Then Peter said to them, 1.Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call. 40 And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, Be saved from this perverse generation. 41 Then those who gladly received his word were 2. baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them. 42 And they continued steadfastly in the apostles doctrine and fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in 3. prayers. 43 Then fear came upon every soul, and many wonders 6
7 and signs were done through the apostles. 44 Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, 45 and sold their possessions and goods, and 4.divided them among all, as anyone had need. 46 So continuing daily with 5.one accord in the temple, and breaking bread from house to house, they 6. ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, 47 praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord 7. added to the church daily those who were being saved. 7

9 Acts 2:38-47 NKJV Then Peter said to them, 1.Repent, and let every one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins; and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. 39 For the promise is to you and to your children, and to all who are afar off, as many as the Lord our God will call. 40 And with many other words he testified and exhorted them, saying, 1. Be saved from this perverse generation. 41 Then those who gladly received his word were 2.baptized; and that day about three thousand souls were added to them. 42 And they continued steadfastly in the apostles 3. doctrine and 4. fellowship, in the breaking of bread, and in 5. prayers. 43 Then fear came upon every soul, and many 6. wonders and signs were done through the apostles. 44 Now all who believed were together, and had all things in common, 45 and sold their possessions and goods, and 7. divided them among all, as anyone had need. 46 So continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and 8. breaking bread from house to house, they ate their food with gladness and simplicity of heart, praising God and having favor with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily those who were being saved. Mark 3:14-15 NKJV Then He appointed twelve, that they might be with Him and that He might send them out to preach, 15 and to have power to heal sicknesses and to cast out demons 9
