“Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.” Matthew 9:38
God so loved the whole world that He graciously gave His only begotten Son to take our place on Calvary’s cross “while we were yet sinners.” (Rom. 5:8) He then raised Christ from the dead for our justification (Rom. 4:25). “We love him, because he first loved us.” (1 John 4:19) Divine love gives and indwells all true believers who then reach out to those who don’t yet know Him – evangelism. “Because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.” (Rom. 5:5)
Jesus Christ, the eternal Creator and Sustainer of all things, left Heaven where He existed from eternity past as the eternal Word (Jn. 1:1-3). He left behind the glory and splendor of His Father to be born in the flesh, live a perfect life, conduct a 3.5 year ministry, die on a wooden cross, be buried and resurrected 3 days later. His one sacrifice completely satisfied the claims of the Father’s justice to fully redeem mankind (Jn. 19:30; Heb. 10:12, etc.). He came to save the alienated and otherwise helpless race that He had created (Rom. 5:6,8). The Son of God came to this sinful earth on a Heavenly mission of mercy – to rescue all of us from our sinful and lost state which separated us from the holiness of God.

2. To whom does the LORD give the power and right to become sons of God? John 1:12
________________________________________________________________________
3. How has God ordained that the people of the world hear the Gospel? Romans 10:14, 15
________________________________________________________________________
Simply put, a “preacher” is a proclaimer or one who declares a message. Every believer is instructed by the One they have believed upon unto salvation, to be a communicator of the Gospel.
4. What was the apostle Paul’s wish for Philemon (a Christian brother)? Philemon 1:6
“That _____________________________________________ may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.” Philemon 1:6
The apostle Paul was here exhorting Philemon to communicate the “faith” and that such would “become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.”
5. How is it that we are to first communicate the Gospel? What component of the Word of God paves the way for sinners to be brought to salvation in Christ? Galatians 3:24

8. So, what is it that brings us to Christ?
________________________________________________________________________
9. Is the law good? 1 Timothy 1:8
________________________________________________________________________
10. Who is the law made for? 1 Timothy 1:8-11 KJV
But we know that the law is good, if a man use it lawfully; Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous
man, but for the __________ and __________, for the __________ and for __________, for __________ and __________,
for __________ of fathers and __________ of mothers, for __________, For __________, for them that
__________________ with mankind, for ______________, for __________, for __________ persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine; According to the glorious gospel of the blessed God, which was committed to my trust. 1 Timothy 1:8-11
11. According to the Gospel, is the law to be used to show sinners the exceeding wickedness of their sinfulness and separation from the only true God who is holy? 1 Timothy 1:11___________________
12. Go to Romans 7:12 and complete this verse: “Wherefore the ______ is ______, and the commandment ______, and ______, and ______.”
Wherefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy, and just, and good. Was then that which is good made death unto me? God forbid. But sin, that it might appear sin, working death in me by that which is good; that sin by the commandment (law) might become exceeding sinful. Romans 7:12-13
God’s holy law magnifies the sinfulness of men with it’s razor sharp holy edge. Concerning God’s law, Charles Spurgeon said:
“I do not believe that any man can preach the gospel who does not preach the law. The law is the needle. You cannot draw the silken thread of the gospel through a man’s heart unless you first send the needle of the law to make a way for it. If men do not understand the law, they’ll not feel that they are sinners. If they are not consciously sinners, they will never value the sin offering. There is no healing a man until the law has wounded him. No making alive until the law has slain him.”
So, when evangelizing, always remember that God’s law, namely the 10 Commandments (see Exodus 20), is to be used first and foremost to bring sinners to realize their unholy state and separation from their holy Maker.
“…by the law is the knowledge of sin.” Romans 3:20
“I had not known sin, but by the law: for I had not known lust, except the law had said, Thou shalt not covet.” Romans 7:7
Sin defined: “…sin is the transgression of the law.” 1 John 3:4
One must be made aware of his own lost state before he will realize his utter need to be forgiven. Only the holy law of the LORD can bring sinners to such a place.
“The law of the LORD is perfect, converting the soul: the testimony of the LORD is sure, making wise the simple.” Psalms 19:7
13. What comes to the humble hearts who hear and receive the truth of God? Romans 10:17
________________________________________________________________________
14. Why did Jesus Christ come to the earth? Luke 19:10
________________________________________________________________________
In Luke 19:10 also notice the phrase “that which was lost”. When the first man Adam sinned, he lost his fellowship with God. This caused the whole human race to be born in sin (Romans 5:12). The mission of Jesus was to bridge the gap again between God and man. He was entirely successful (Is. 59:2; Rom. 6:23; Jn. 19:30; Rev. 1:18).
Jesus came to reconcile us to the Father and commission the reconciled by giving “to us the ministry of reconciliation.” (2 Cor. 5:18)
15. What is it that should constrain/compel us as the redeemed (bought back) of the LORD? 2 Corinthians 5:14

20. What did the early Church pray earnestly for? Acts 4:29
________________________________________________________________________
21. Did Jesus suggest or command all disciples to preach the Gospel? Mark 16:15
________________________________________________________________________
Notice that Christ did not command His disciples to wait until they felt real good, led, or obtained a college degree, then to go preach, but rather to simply “Go” and “preach”. He promises to be with us “confirming the word with signs following.” (Mk. 16:15-20)
22. Where did the Lord tell His disciples to go preach? Mark 16:15
________________________________________________________________________
23. Where did Jesus tell them to start? Acts 1:8
________________________________________________________________________
The LORD commands all of His disciples to be filled with the Holy Ghost to be endued with power to bear witness of Him. He then instructs them to start sharing the Good News right where they are and move out from there. Notice the sequence of towns the early believers were told to witness in, “Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth.” When Jesus was speaking these words to His followers, they were in Jerusalem. First, He instructed them to proclaim the Gospel right where they were (Jerusalem), then to move out to the surrounding cities, and then to the “uttermost parts of the earth.” Read this verse again and notice this start where you are, and move out from there principle that Jesus taught. Beloved, if we don’t communicate the Good News to those around us, who will?

24. When commissioning His disciples to declare the Gospel, who did the LORD say would be with them always, even till the end of the world? Matthew 28:18-20
________________________________________________________________________
The word “commission” denotes that there are two or more people involved in one mission – co-mission. The believer is not alone when he goes, Jesus is with us at all times. – “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.” (Matt. 28:18-20)
The Father sent the Son, and Jesus sent the Holy Spirit who indwells us, to lead and empower His people in communicating His Word of life.
25. As “Jesus went about all the cities and villages” what did He do? Matthew 9:35
________________________________________________________________________
26. What was Jesus “moved with” when He saw the great needs of the people? Matthew 9:36
________________________________________________________________________
The power of love. “Charity never faileth.” 1 Corinthians 13:8
27. After seeing the multitudes of people who needed the Shepherd, what statement did Jesus make? Matthew 9:37
________________________________________________________________________
28. Are there many or few souls who can be harvested into the kingdom of God? Matthew 9:35-38
________________________________________________________________________
29. How did Jesus say that we are to pray concerning the harvest of souls that is to be reaped? Matthew 9:38
________________________________________________________________________
Doesn’t Matthew 9:38 identify an important item that should be on every believer’s daily prayer list?
30. Did Jesus say to wait a while, or to go reap the harvest? John 4:35
________________________________________________________________________
Do you truly desire to be a true and fruitful disciple of Christ? If so, then you must be willing to obey His command to be filled with His Holy Spirit, communicate His Word, and go and reap the harvest. In this verse Jesus refutes the waiting, procrastinating mentality. There is no reason to wait “the fields; for they are white already to harvest.” There are people in our vicinity who need His love today. The LORD will return soon and all who will be with Him should be found with their hand on the plow, reaping His harvest. (Luke 9:61-62)
Read John 4:35 again. Notice the phrase “Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.” To “lift up your eyes” means to open the eyes of your heart to the reality of souls that Jesus wants to rescue from eternal hell! The expression “look on the fields” means to look from the LORD’s perspective and beyond selfish needs into the needs of others, in this case, the unsaved. To “look” is to realize the needs of the hurting of this world. The hurting include all who are without Christ, whether religious, rich, poor, black, white, brown, red, or yellow.
31. What does the LORD see as He looks down from Heaven upon the earth and into the hearts of those created in His image? Proverbs 15:11
“_____________________________________________ are before the LORD: how much more then the
________________________________________________________________________
32. If any person (regardless of what he professes) is ashamed of Jesus and His words, what will happen when He returns? Mark 8:38
________________________________________________________________________
33. What happens when a believer “draws back”? Hebrews 10:38
________________________________________________________________________
34. Will soul winners receive rewards from God in eternity? John 4:34-36
________________________________________________________________________
The true disciples of Jesus will be greatly rewarded with premiums that will never lose their value in the eternal kingdom of God. To win souls to Christ is to lay up timeless treasures and to make wise and eternal investments. In the LORD your labor is not in vain, God is an eternal rewarder of those who diligently seek and serve Him (1 Corinthians 15:58; Hebrews 6:10, 11:6; Matt. 10:42).
35. In eternity, who did the LORD say would “shine” with “brightness…as the stars for ever and ever”? Daniel 12:3
A. _____________________________________________________________________
B. _____________________________________________________________________
36. While on earth, what was Jesus’ “meat”? John 4:34
________________________________________________________________________
Christ’s priority was to please His Father in the redemption mission that He was sent on. It consumed Him (Ps. 40:7-10). The true sustenance of this life is to do God’s will and accomplish that which He sent us here for.
37. What “meat” did Jesus command His disciples not to labor for? John 6:27
________________________________________________________________________
“The meat which perisheth” refers to the temporal things of this fleeting life. Beware of the things of this world which can steal the affections of your heart. Beware of local churches which care nothing for evangelism but only to perpetuate their own existence while the world goes to hell. Friend of God, we should be very discerning, prayerful and careful concerning being entangled with doctrines that rob our hearts of pure and fervent love for Jesus and the spreading of His holy Gospel. Many today are being drawn away from the work of the Gospel they are called to with frivolous teachings which cater to the flesh while enticing and fostering idolatry and covetousness – inward focus (Phil. 3:17-21; 2 Pet. 2:1-3). Instead of presenting the clear teachings of Jesus Christ, Satan is using many “leaders” to misdirect the focus of the LORD’s people and cause them to be unfruitful in the kingdom of God (1 Tim. 4:1-6; 2 Tim. 3:1-5). The true Gospel of Jesus Christ causes one to love God supremely and to love his neighbor as himself. This includes obeying the command of the Master to love thy neighbor by communicating the Good News to him in lifestyle, testimony, or presentation of Scripture in written or spoken form. The Gospel causes men to love and obey God in simplicity and in truth.
38. What kind of “meat” did Jesus instruct His followers to labor for? John 6:27
________________________________________________________________________
By faith you must see that God is laying up eternal treasures for you as you obey the LORD Jesus.
39. What will determine reward amounts received? 1 Corinthians 3:8
________________________________________________________________________
40. What are some prerequisites for being a faithful soul winner? Psalms 51:7-13 (Read v13 first.)
v7 _____________________________________________________________________
v9 _____________________________________________________________________
v10 ____________________________________________________________________
v12 ____________________________________________________________________
41. What did Jesus say was the “seed”? Luke 8:11
________________________________________________________________________
42. What does a farmer do with seeds?
________________________________________________________________________
43. If the farmer doesn’t plant his seeds, will he still have a harvest? (circle one)
YES
NO
The “seed” of salvation (God’s Word) must be planted within the hearts of people if there is going to be a harvest of salvation. This can be done/communicated in any number of ways.
44. Did God promise that His eternal Word would be productive? Isaiah 55:11
________________________________________________________________________
45. When spoken, what will God’s Word accomplish? Isaiah 55:11
________________________________________________________________________
46. How is “he which soweth bountifully” going to “reap”? 2 Corinthians 9:6
________________________________________________________________________
Evangelism is sometimes tough, but always remember that it was greater pain than we’ll ever know for our Savior to suffer and die on the cross for the sins of the world. Read Hebrews 12:1-4 and 1 Peter 4:1, 2. There are times when the enemy and your own mind are going to attempt to cast doubt upon the effect of your witnessing. We should evermore live by the unchanging Word of God and not our fickle and temporal feelings. Beloved, be encouraged and do not waver, but persevere and “endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.”(2 Timothy 2:3). The LORD is doing a work in and through His children and all Gospel work will be rewarded.
47. What is involved in the process of winning souls? What do we observe men to be doing in this process? 1 Corinthians 3:6
________________________________________________________________________
To obtain the harvest of salvation the seed of salvation must first be planted and watered. The Word of God teaches us that a constant flow of the Gospel is going forth in the earth. One is planting, another is watering and God is bringing the increase of salvation (1 Corinthians 3:6). As a member of the Body of Christ, we are called to do our part. Satan is going to try to discourage us. He hates the truth that is being spread, because it is setting free those he has blinded and captured with his devious lies (John 8:31, 32). Press on beloved. You are a messenger of the Almighty Creator of this universe. Your God owns this earth and has commissioned you to share His message with the people that He loves (Psalms 24:1). We go forth under His authority. Boldly share the unchanging truth, the Gospel, that makes men free from sin, the devil, and eternal hell. Let’s proclaim liberty to the captives.
48. When the Word of God is planted and watered within the hearts of men, who is it that brings the increase? 1 Corinthians 3:6
________________________________________________________________________
49. What is the Word of God within you called? 2 Corinthians 4:7
________________________________________________________________________
50. What did Paul command Timothy to preach? 2 Timothy 4:2
________________________________________________________________________
As a disciple of Jesus it is of the utmost importance that you simply proclaim the truth of God’s Word, letting God’s Word convict and draw men to Him. All opinion and religious thought, not yet purged, must die. Fill your heart and mind with the eternal Word of God daily. Be prepared to share His truth with the souls that you come in contact with.
51. Did God tell Ezekiel the prophet to stop preaching if no one listened and obeyed? Ezekiel 2:6, 7
YES
NO
God has never promised that all who hear would be saved, but this does not remove the responsibility of the Body of Christ to proclaim His truth.
52. In this dark world of sin, what blazing torch does God instruct His disciples to hold forth as they work out their salvation with fear and trembling? Philippians 2:12-16
________________________________________________________________________
53. Concerning soul winning, what did Paul charge Timothy to do in his earthly walk with God? 2 Timothy 4:5
________________________________________________________________________
54. Who is it that is truly walking in divine wisdom? Proverbs 11:30
________________________________________________________________________
55. What two entities in the earth right now are calling sinners into the kingdom of God? Revelation 22:17
________________________________________________________________________
56. As a disciple of Jesus, how often should you be ready to help others come to know God’s truth and love? 1 Peter 3:15
________________________________________________________________________
57. What is it that will enable the disciple of Jesus to be able to answer critics of God and His kingdom? Psalms 119:42
________________________________________________________________________
58. According to Psalms 107:2, what is God’s instruction to you as a redeemed child of God?
________________________________________________________________________
We should pray to our Heavenly Father daily to open doors to tell others about Him. We are instructed to pray for laborers and be one ourselves (Matt. 9:38). Let’s pray that He would send forth laborers into His harvest. Proclaim His goodness at every possible opportunity. Ask Him for boldness. Remember that “The righteous are bold as a lion.” Proverb 28:1
Will you pray and obey? Please take a minute to search your heart before answering this all-important question. Repent of any previous hardness of heart and disobedience. Ask the Lord Jesus to cleanse your heart of all rebellion and to grant you a fiery zeal to proclaim His truth in love.
YES
NO
NOW IS A GOOD TIME FOR YOU TO BEGIN TO PRAYERFULLY EMPLOY DIFFERENT METHODS TO REACH PEOPLE WITH THE GOOD NEWS. IDEAS: SHARE GOD’S WORD AND YOUR PERSONAL TESTIMONY WITH OTHERS. USE GOSPEL TRACTS – ALWAYS HAVE THEM ON HAND. PUT A TRACT IN ALL ENVELOPES THAT YOU SEND OUT. PLACE THEM ANYWHEREPEOPLE WILL FIND THEM. GIVE THEM DIRECTLY TO PEOPLE. NEVER LEAVE HOME WITHOUT A GOOD SUPPLY OF GOSPEL TRACTS. WRITE LETTERS TO FRIENDS AND INCLUDE SCRIPTURES, TRACTS, AND/OR YOUR TESTIMONY. THE LIST GOES ON. JUST USE YOUR GOD-GIVEN RESOURCES AND WATCH HIS BLESSING BEGIN TO FLOW.
CHALLENGE ESSAY ASSIGNMENT:
In 250 words or more, detail the ways that the Word of God should be incorporated into the daily life of the believer. (Tips for your essay’s content: study, performance, prayer, warfare, proclaiming, meditating upon, memorizing, etc). Search the Scriptures as your source for this essay and use Scripture and references to validate your statements. Begin with deep and prayerful meditation on God’s Word. Write your essay neatly and in an organized manner.
SCRIPTURE MEMORIZATION: Mark 16:15
It would be very advantageous for you to cross reference all of the Scriptures in this study. For example, pencil in each topically similar verse into the margin next to the corresponding verses on this same subject. Write out these verses with references on index cards – make it a priority to carry and post them where you will study and meditate upon them. These two measures will build in you a wealth of truth on each topic. This will help you to retain and become resourceful in the Word of God – ready to be used of Him. Capture the knowledge that you have learned, don’t let it slip away from you.
Capitalize on your efforts. This is preparation in earnest (2 Timothy 2:21).

4,500 JESUS Tracts have been Hand-Delivered !
These JESUS tracts in Spanish have been handed out person to person with the love of God and the Word of God spoken to the recipients in Spanish!
You have integrally participated in this mission by your prayers and support. We are not finished yet saints.
Saints, you are the ones who make this possible – by your prayers and support. There is no support from any church, ministry, or corporate support. Individual disciples support this work.
FYI: I also help support this work financially in a limited fashion and yet there’s kingdom opportunity for more saints to participate. There are less than 10 saints monthly who support this work financially. God be praised for their participation in our LORD’s Great Commission work (Matthew 28:18-20; Mark 16:15-20). Jesus is coming and remember, Jesus says “No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” (Luke 9:62).
God be praised that nearly 4,500 JESUS tracts in Spanish have been distributed in Mexico thus far – with a personal touch, a speaking of the Word of God in Spanish to the recipients.
This week I am going to be speaking with a local printer to get another 1,500 printed or 2,500, depending on what resources come in.
The following words of our LORD are specifically spoken to and the grand opportunity and responsibility of the saints in the earth now in this last hour before Christ’s return.
“And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.” Matthew 24:14
Reprinting the JESUS tract is at hand. New supply needed. A grand kingdom opportunity is before each of us in this mission.
“Glory hallelujah! God is sure blessing you and the ministry for your faithfulness to Him! And we who pray and support rejoice with you for His Word going out among the beautiful people of Mexico! And we know His Word will not return void but will accomplish that which He set it out to do. Isaiah 55:11.” Tom and Karen Cochran
In general the prices are higher where I am now. $300 should take care of 1,500 copies of the JESUS tract.

Mission Mexico Part 24
“Thank you for sharing all these stories of what our loving Lord Jesus is doing in the hearts of the Mexican people. Reminds me of Acts 15:12 when Paul and Barnabas declared to the early Christian believers all the miracles and wonders God was doing through them, showing them God’s power and love for all the brethren! It wasn’t so they would be praised but to give glory to the Lord. Just as I see in all these testimonies. It’s all about Jesus!” Karen Cochran | Mission Mexico

Thank you for praying for the people of Mexico to be saved.
These are three of the people who received our LORD’s Gospel today who were all blessed to know you would be lifting them in prayer. God is able. Colossians 4:12 anyone? Thank you for pausing to lift them in prayer – that they will be convicted of their sin and repent and be saved.
This is Elvita. She is a very dear lady and was in need and received help. Thank God and thank you to those who are praying and supporting. She was hungry and blessed with a delicious meal from a local vendor and also a medical bill was paid for her. You are making these things happen to the glory of the LORD.
“WE are labourers TOGETHER with God.” 1 Corinthians 3:9
Elvita came asking for help but was turned away by some…
I was able to catch her before she got too far and asked if she were hungry and she said yes. I put my arm around her and began ministering Jesus to her and to her needs. Brought her to a dear lady who serves food and she fixed a nutritious delicious plate of food for Elvita. All organic.
Lots of internationals in Mexico.
Had a long talk with Singh today. He’s searching.
He received the Gospel and so we know what Isaiah 55:11 says right?
Thank you for pausing to lift this man in prayer.
This man is saved.
Carlos was edified and built up in Christ.
Other than him ordering a coke it was a great fellowship haha.
When asked if he’d like several Christian people in the USA praying for him, he excitedly answered in the affirmative.
Thank you for pausing to pray for our brother (Colossians 4:12)
He is in need of being water baptized.
Working on that.
Carlos left with a stack of JESUS tracts to distribute.
Prayed with Jorge to be Saved. God knows.
Another divine appointment. Crossing paths with Jorge, a dentist, was nothing less then a God-ordained collision where Christ was glorified to save beloved Jorge.
Jorge was warmly greeted and thoroughly ministered to, the Word, and asked if he’d like to repent and receive Christ and be forgiven of all his sins by the precious blood of Christ, right now. He answered in the affirmative and he prayed aloud to the LORD the prayer of repentance and faith in Christ on the back of the JESUS tract ! Discipleship ensued. And as usual I informed Jorge that you would be lifting him in prayer as we celebrated his being brought by Jesus into HIS eternal kingdom. Also, Jorge needs more clients for his dentist office and I shared with him that we would also be lifting that in prayer.
This was a first:
Obed was sitting on a street curb with his head down. I approached him from behind, putting my arm across his back in a warm gesture of God’s love. Obed was very receptive from the start. Saints, when someone consents, when they verbally agree to receive prayer, they open themselves up to the LORD, to Heaven’s blessings. Well, such is the case with Obed. When I saw Obed, I noticed immediately that he had a Bible in his hand. Obed had the Word of our God preached to Him in Spanish and gladly received the JESUS tract. He was told that it’s about about relationship with Jesus, not religion. That’s all he possessed and also a willing heart. When asked, Obed said yes, that he wanted Christian people in the USA to pray for him. Boom. YOU, yes YOU hold the most important kingdom position – and that is bringing this bless-ed soul in prayer before God. Unleash the power of the name of Jesus in your prayer for this precious man. He wants it!!!! He wants Jesus. Oh and Obed was hungry and thirsty and given a warm fresh delicious meal and cold bottled water from a nearby local vendor.

Are You a Follower of Jesus and Considering Moving to Mexico? [podcast]
Could the LORD be shaking off the dust of His holy feet against America?
“And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words, when ye depart out of that house or city, shake off the dust of your feet.” Matthew 10:14
HAPPENING NOW:
Just handed a tract to a man named Ruben. He said “Thank you. I’ve been searching and was thinking of visiting the JW (Jehovah Witness) church near me. Thank you.” Then a conversation ensued. He was informed that that JW and Mormons are cults. Ruben was given the law to convict, and saving Gospel, and exhorted to pray in repentance today and receive Jesus for the remission of his sins. He was told by way of testimony and the Word that Jesus is exactly Who he was looking for.
We exchanged numbers and will be meeting again soon. Please pray for this man. He’s in ripe mode if you will….. ready to repent and receive Jesus, Heaven’s Treasure, Salvation! Would you like to pause and lift Ruben in prayer?
*** Saints, as your brother in Christ, let me encourage you to dare pray something like this today if you are inclined: “Dear LORD, I am all Yours. You created me. You came and died for me. I am Yours. Please put me on Your planet, just exactly where You want me, and use me dear LORD! In Jesus’ name. Amen.”
Saints the JW and Mormon cults are here in Mexico. There are few if any Christian missionaries. “The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few.”
“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. 36 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. 37 Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest truly is plenteous, but the labourers are few; 38 Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he will send forth labourers into his harvest.” Matthew 9:35-38
I don’t believe any American would regret moving to this great country. The peace and tranquility are off the charts. If you need someone to talk to, let me know.
One thing is certain, you will be immediately spoiled by the preciousness of the Mexican people and their acceptance of the message of Christ! You will minister to no one who won’t say “gracias.”

“Love this Jesus Tract! The other day, at the home we minister in (retirement home), Tom asked me to read this to the people as they usually follow along. Half way through it the reality of what Jesus did for me and all of us, on the cross hit me and the tears began to stream down my face. I could no longer read it. This tract is so filled with the truth and how much God loves us, even in spite of how wicked we are, how could anyone not be convicted?” Karen Cochran
“As this sanctification process happens in our hearts we will see more and more of Christ’s light shining in our hearts. Proverbs 4:18: “But the path of the just is the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day.” As we surrender daily, as we die to ourselves, as we die downward and are buried with Christ, Jesus’ resurrection life (newness of life) will shine brighter and brighter in our hearts! Until that perfect day when we shall be taken up into glory to be with our Savior forever. Then God’s glory will fill our hearts and the heavens! Until now let the Daystar arise in our hearts each day so His light can shine forth into this lost world. We are to be the light shining Christ’s light into this broken and dark world! Jesus alone is the Answer! His resurrection light! Glory hallelujah!” Karen Cochran
FEEDBACK
Francisco repented and received Jesus! As our LORD would have it, our paths crossed by divine ordination. Francisco was preached to and gladly received a Jesus tract. Upon showing him the prayer of repentance and faith on the back, he immediately raised his hands to pray. It caught me off guard, in a good way, and so he was instructed to pray in repentance and faith… as he was led, and he did, out loud, acknowledging that he has sinned against God and then calling on our LORD Jesus to forgive, save, wash away his sin.
“That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed. … 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Romans 10:9-13
Beloved Francisco was showed and encouraged to download the Reina Valera Spanish Bible onto his devices and wake up to seeking God in His Word and prayer first thing each morning (Matthew 6:33). He was given the idea also of reading the Proverb of the day each morning.
This continues to happen here with these precious people. They are so hungry for Christ and only need someone to show, to lead them to Him. Several times when instructed to go home and pray in repentance and faith, they overtly lift their hands and hearts and begin praying right on the spot – which demonstrates that they’d been waiting eagerly to hear the message of Christ’s Gospel!
“HOW shall they hear without a preacher?” Romans 10:14
Ensuing his repentance toward God and faith toward our LORD Jesus (Acts 20:21), the discipleship began. We’ve already been communicating and he’s got the Born Again book in Spanish with three more of the ministry books which will be sent to him this week.
The life being lived with any other purpose except to please God and serve others, is a wasted, hell bound life.
“So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.” Psalms 90:12
“Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.” Ephesians 5:16
Remember, flights back and forth from Texas to Mexico are only a 2-3 hour flight.
