No man knows the day nor the hour when the harvest is ready. Only the Lord of the harvest knows the time. The Word of God is planted in men’s hearts. The door is open and waiting for all who would enter into the labor of the Lord’s fields.
Continue to sow the seed of the Word of God.
The Word sown in good soil shall bring forth fruit, some an hundredfold, some sixtyfold, some thirtyfold. There will be a harvest.
Matthew 13:9 Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
The parable of the seed in Mark 4:26-29
And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground: and should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how. For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself: first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear. But when the fruit is brought forth; immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.
This planting and reaping plays out continually until death. Our walk in Christ is like a field that has his word (seed) sown and planted in our life.
Our layers of understanding ripen and reveal fruit. This fruit is cut and dispensed by the Lord of the harvest. The Lord grows us up, maturing us daily in His Presence, filling us with His wisdom and power.

John 4:35 Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? Behold I say unto you, Lift up your eyes and look on the fields: for they are white unto harvest.
Matthew 9:37-38 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the laborers are few: Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth laborers into his harvest.
Matthew 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers. Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
Let’s pray:
Father God, our times and our seasons are in your hands. Jesus told us to ask for laborers to be sent into the fields, so we are asking. Lord of the harvest ,send forth laborers into your harvest. In Jesus name. Amen.
