Behind the Scenes
Lord of the Harvest
I ’ m old enough to remember the Imperials ’ classic song , “ Lord of the Harvest .” I ’ ve even sung it a few times at mission conferences . Here are the words of the chorus :
Lord of the harvest Place your fire in me Servant you need now Servant I will be Give me the eyes of your Spirit Your heart of compassion to know Lord of the harvest Show me where to go .
This is One Mission Society ’ s passionate prayer for ourselves and for those we connect with . We plead for God to place his fire in us to serve him with hearts for lost people . We pray that the Lord of the harvest will send us laborers now , as the fields are ripe .
In this issue of OMS Outreach , we address the general need we have for new laborers to join our mission . We hope and pray that many will minister with OMS while we actively engage with one to reach many through multiplying disciples , churches , leaders , and missionaries .
Would you join us in praying that the Lord of the harvest will send more workers through OMS ?
