Many Churches are Seeking to Fulfil their Mission by Emphasiz-

Ground in the Right W_________, at the Right
T__________, and at the Right D_____________. (v. 25)
3. R_________________: the Joyful Privilege of Bringing in
the H____________________. (v. 27-28)
in John 4:35, Jesus says, “Look, I tell you, lift up your eyes, and see
that the fields are white for harvest.” And in Matt. 9:38 He says,
“therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out labor-
ers into his harvest.”
