Then Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues, 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 for them, because they were weary and scattered, like sheep without a shepherd. Matthew 9:35,36
So, it is today, people are tired of old-time religion, dead church services, preachers hawking them for money and the stress of the times. We have worn out the modern-day model for the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. Like sheep they wander from church to church seeking the water of life!
Jesus never intended for His body of believers to end up like the "Walking Dead!" Look at what He did when He walked the earth with twelve men, He left an example for us to follow and trained His disciples to follow His lead. We as His disciples are commissioned to go and make new disciples of Christ, not denominational robots who follow a dead and lifeless religion.
Imagine life when people are being set free, healed, and raised from the dead, the excitement and glory would overwhelm us, and it would be a wonderful time of grace, mercy and supernatural works. Signs, wonders and miracles would be the order of the day!
"The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few. "Therefore, pray the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into His harvest." Matthew 9:37,38
