"As they went out, behold, they brought to him a dumb man possessed with a devil. And when the devil was cast out, the dumb spake: and the multitudes marvelled, saying, It was never so seen in Israel. But the Pharisees said, He casteth out devils through the prince of the devils. And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every sickness and every disease among the people. But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest."
Today's quote relates how Jesus continued to cast out devils, heal the sick and bless the lives of everyone he encountered.
In the last part of the quote Jesus told His disciples, to include the children of God today, to pray for more workers to gather the vast harvest of lost souls.
There were thousands who searched for the amazing grace of God when Jesus walked the land. Today there are billions of lost souls who await our efforts to spread the good news of God's amazing, soul saving grace.
Our time to serve the Lord is becoming shorter with each passing hour.~
