Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.

 Matthew 9:27-38

As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed him, calling out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”

Jesus Heals the Blind and the Mute, The crowd was amazed and said, “Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel.”  But the Pharisees said, “It is by the prince of demons that he drives out demons.”

When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd. Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into his harvest field.”

Jesus' pity for the people, God's harvest, leads straight into the account of his selection of the 'Twelve'. The choice and training of this inner ring of disciples was a vital part of Jesus' mission.

Why?

Jesus has pity on his people, so he healed the blind and the mute. drove out the demon from men.

Inner heart is more important than following the regulation.

Jesus gives his mission to us, pray to the Lord of harvest, and send out workers into his harvest field. We are the missionary to make it.

How?

Gospel is the mission from the Lord, pray to the Lord of the harvest.
