Into His Harvest
He told them, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few.
Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest field.”

God has given us a spirit who can commune with His Spirit. He has given us
revelation (the Word), so that we can have
the curtain drawn back on the activity of
the spirit world. He has given us the avenue of prayer, so that we might speak
