Mat 9:36 ASV - But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion for them, because they were distressed and scattered, as sheep not having a shepherd.
Mat 9:37 ASV - Then saith he unto his disciples, The harvest indeed is plenteous, but the laborers are few.
Mat 9:38 ASV - Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he send forth laborers into his harvest.
I want to share this dream with you I had forty years ago and than a vision just today
And as I stood on a mountain top I was enveloped in light all around me and I could feel the warmth of that light. And I was trying to understand where I was at that moment. Everything was in color and very vivid . The light was bright and warm and the feeling of peace great peace, I felt very safe. As I looked to my right and my left and then in front of me, I saw a wall, a fortified wall in front of me. It was very well built, of massive stones and it was very wide I knew I was safe, for I felt that great safety was behind this wall. I look out over the wall down in the valleys below. It was very bleak the earth was scorched and barren. There was no grass just barren earth. And as the hills rolled out of sight I saw trees blackened and with no leaves. And at that moment I said where am I, what is this place. The height of the wall was just below my face so I could see over. And as I look out over the wall, the farther I look the blacker and darker it became until I could not see anything. I wondered at all this what I was seeing when at once I felt the presents of a person next to me. And he was weeping and I could hear him softly crying. And as I turned to see who was next to me I immediately said Lord is that you Lord. I look up to see his face but I could not see his face . I looked and his arms were massive and his stature was very large, and he had his hands to his face weeping. He represented power and might and strength that's what I felt. And I said Lord what is wrong why are you crying, he said Gay, now Gay is my first name and only my brothers and sister, only very close family call me by that name. But when he talks to me he calls me by that name, he is my brother . He said Gay I weep for the folly of men. For you are with in and they are without. I weep for those that are outside. And he turned and looked down at me and said will you go Gay will you go for me. And I was weeping also and I said yes Lord I will go I will go for you. And that was the end of the dream. Now what comes next is a word I received at a time when I was reading the word.This came to me in my spirit. A vision I could see as I wrote it.
I look and behold a figure of a man with stature and size beyond my understanding
I saw in him great strength and power his arms were massive in size
He came to where I was and held out to me an instrument and it had a blade and it was gleaming as silver in the sun
It had a shaft that seemed as though it were polished by many hands and a smooth surface of beauty, as if many had used this instrument in times past. I believe this is the word of God
I took hold of the sickle yes that's what it was a well worn sickle as I laid hold of it I realized it was a tool for reaping of grain. And that it had been used by many before me. The sword of the spirit
The person of strength looked at me and said use it wisely ,use it with love, use it with all the power it has . For the time has come that the fruit of my field is golden and ripe
The tares are fallen down to the ground. (I want to say the tares I saw were not plucked up but were laying on the ground) And now fill my barns with the fruit of my righteousness For there stands in the field of my salvation my hearts desire, them that have wept and sacrificed for many days for my coming. Victory I desire for them also Yes I have come now to gather those that I have called and they that need a Sheppard a loving hand for the great and final day is approaching And great are the mercy's of our God and father
He has come today with loving kindness and he is slow to anger, and having mercy for thousands. I saw as I look upon the battle field of devastation, blackness. Trees with no leaves twisted and bent burned and blackened And the man next to me this man of power and strength He was crying he wept hard and as I looked he held out his arms wide . Behold your salvation draws nigh . Many are called but few are chosen , The door to the Ark is about to close come out of Sodom ! come quickly , go to the mountain , Even as Lot and his family were dragged out of Sodom. So send I messengers to take hold of your hand . Will you choose Zoar as Lot, a place that was chosen to burn with Sodom. A small and insignificant city, when I have a bright and gleaming city a city of beauty mount Zion the city of the living God. Judgment has begun and the fire of his wrath is waiting. For the sake of my bride my lovely, I have others that I love to bring them in, the called . And those that are with him are called , chosen and Faithful . And this word came to me Jhn 4:34 ASV - Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to accomplish his work.
Jhn 4:35 ASV - Say not ye, There are yet four months, and [then] cometh the harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, that they are white already unto harvest.
Jhn 4:36 ASV - He that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal; that he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
Jhn 4:37 ASV - For herein is the saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
Jhn 4:38 ASV - I sent you to reap that whereon ye have not labored: others have labored, and ye are entered into their labor. Come to the harvest come with Joy that your father has called you and the work is almost finished. The blackness and the darkness is coming upon the earth. It will be the evil beastly men and their devices.
Tribulation is coming and there will be no escape,except the mountain of God his righteous safety. Just as the Ark save Noah and his family from the flood. Jesus is our Ark our safety. We cannot work at being saved we are saved by Faith it is the gift of Grace given by the father. Your salvation is accomplished here on earth while we still have the day. This dream is for the righteous already not something to come. Our flesh will not enter heaven only the redeemed and they shall be changed in the twinkling of an eye. The fruit of Jesus is what the father is coming for. Tribulation is coming and just as Israel came out of Egypt into tribulation or the Wilderness. So God is going to do today to those he loves. Great works from the spirit of God are coming for a time just as Acts the church in great power. Gods saving grace for the those that have been misled and used by the Harlot. Made merchandise of lied to and deceived. For some there is this time of mercy and drawing in to the Ark and than the end. Its not forty years of you working to be saved getting yourself s right to be saved. No its believing and living in that faith, and saving others . What are the laborers for but the lost, many are called and the choosing is happening now. If you are working to save your flesh you have already lost. Jhn 6:26 ASV - Jesus answered them and said, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw signs, but because ye ate of the loaves, and were filled. The flesh profits nothing.
Jhn 6:27 ASV - Work not for the food which perisheth, but for the food which abideth unto eternal life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him the Father, even God, hath sealed. We eat his flesh and drink his blood ,his flesh is the word of righteousness and his blood is his very nature of his son Jesus,therefore God has given us power to become sons of God. 1Jo 3:2 ASV - Beloved, now are we children of God, and it is not yet made manifest what we shall be. We know that, if he shall be manifested, we shall be like him; for we shall see him even as he is. Always remembering the mirror and seeing Jesus not our flesh
Jhn 6:28 ASV - They said therefore unto him, What must we do, that we may work the works of God?
Jhn 6:29 ASV - Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent. Faith is that substance that God wants from us ,and we have that hope of Glory.
Col 1:27 ASV - to whom God was pleased to make known what is the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Zacchaeus and you.
Luk 19:1 ASV - And he entered and was passing through Jericho.
Luk 19:2 ASV - And behold, a man called by name Zacchaeus; and he was a chief publican, and he was rich.
Luk 19:3 ASV - And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the crowd, because he was little of stature.
Luk 19:4 ASV - And he ran on before, and climbed up into a sycomore tree to see him: for he was to pass that way.
Luk 19:5 ASV - And when Jesus came to the place, he looked up, and said unto him, Zacchaeus, make haste, and come down; for to-day I must abide at thy house.
Luk 19:6 ASV - And he made haste, and came down, and received him joyfully.
Luk 19:7 ASV - And when they saw it, they all murmured, saying, He is gone in to lodge with a man that is a sinner.
Luk 19:8 ASV - And Zacchaeus stood, and said unto the Lord, Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have wrongfully exacted aught of any man, I restore fourfold.
Luk 19:9 ASV - And Jesus said unto him, To-day is salvation come to this house, forasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham.
Luk 19:10 ASV - For the Son of man came to seek and to save that which was lost.
Zacchaeus = "pure" or innocent , Is this the way Jesus see's you. He was innocent in the fact he was unaware of Gods love and mercy. You know Gods grace is what saves us all. As we read this beautiful story we see a man the Jews called a sinner. A heathen a non Jew according to their standard, unless you were born a Jew you were a sinner. A very elite way of judging, proud and arrogant to say the least. The word says we have no right to say who goes to heaven or to hell. Now every one not of the blood line of Abraham, and if you were not a Jew you were a sinner hopelessly lost for ever. But look at this word from the start God had his eye on Zacchaeus. It says he was a small person in stature. But I see more than just physical here there is also a spiritual side here. He was hinderd in his mind to the fact he was rejected and spoke evil of . The Jews hated Zacchaeus they called him a sinner , they told Jesus we have Abraham as our father. Jesus said Abraham rejoiced to see my day and he did. Gal 3:6 ASV - Even as Abraham believed God, and it was reckoned unto him for righteousness.
Gal 3:7 ASV - Know therefore that they that are of faith, the same are sons of Abraham.
Gal 3:8 ASV - And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the Gentiles by faith, preached the gospel beforehand unto Abraham, [saying,] In thee shall all the nations be blessed.
Gal 3:9 ASV - So then they that are of faith are blessed with the faithful Abraham.
Now Zacchaeus it says was wanting to see Jesus he climbed a tree so when he passed by he would get a look at Jesus, it was more than a look he was after. Now God saw his heart and the next few verses tell of Gods mercy for those that seek him with an honest heart. The verse says when Jesus came to the place the exact spot, Jesus knew exactly where he was, you know the word says that no man can come unto God except the spirit draw him, he Jesus look up and said Zacchaeus come down I am coming to your house. And the word says Zacchaeus received him Joyfully he was happy and he came down and took Jesus to his home. and the real Jews of the old law looking on said look he has gone into a sinner mans house. The moment that Zacchaeus saw that Jesus had excepted him he began to repent to have a change of mind. He said to Jesus Behold, Lord, the half of my goods I give to the poor; and if I have wrongfully exacted aught of any man, I restore fourfold. The word says Godly sorrow worketh repentance. Just being in the presents of Jesus with a willing heart brought change, he repented and Jesus said this of him To-day is salvation come to this house, his whole house, forasmuch as he also is a son of Abraham. Faith reconciles us to God 2Cr 5:18 ASV - But all things are of God, who reconciled us to himself through Christ, and gave unto us the ministry of reconciliation;
2Cr 5:19 ASV - to wit, that God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself, not reckoning unto them their trespasses, and having committed unto us the word of reconciliation. To repent is to have a change of mind and the word says we should always live a life worthy of our repentance. Its a daily walk , Always being a reflection of Christ to whom ever we meet. Jesus said you are the light of the world, a city on a hill. So let your light shine. Jhn 3:19 ASV - And this is the judgment, that the light is come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the light; for their works were evil.
Jhn 12:46 ASV - I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me may not abide in the darkness.
Luk 4:18 ASV - The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, Because he anointed me to preach good tidings to the poor: He hath sent me to proclaim release to the captives, And recovering of sight to the blind, To set at liberty them that are bruised,
Luk 4:19 ASV - To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.
Luk 4:20 ASV - And he closed the book, and gave it back to the attendant, and sat down: and the eyes of all in the synagogue were fastened on him.
Luk 4:21 ASV - And he began to say unto them, To-day hath this scripture been fulfilled in your ears. There are two things that happen there and to a man when he hears the word of God. It is a seed that is planted and it goes straight to your heart and then it is what a man does with that seed he either waters it and takes it deep into his heart. Or he lets his flesh have its way and our flesh is an enemy of Gods word so it gets rejected. But from the start that word is sent to create life in us . And if that seed grows and becomes a plant of stature it than makes more fruit of that same seed. Each seed has a body of its own the bible says. 1Cr 15:37 ASV - and that which thou sowest, thou sowest not the body that shall be, but a bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of some other kind;
1Cr 15:38 ASV - but God giveth it a body even as it pleased him, and to each seed a body of its own.
1Cr 15:39 ASV - All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one [flesh] of men, and another flesh of beasts, and another flesh of birds, and another of fishes.
1Cr 15:40 ASV - There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the [glory] of the terrestrial is another.
1Cr 15:41 ASV - There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars; for one star differeth from another star in glory.
1Cr 15:42 ASV - So also is the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised in incorruption:
1Cr 15:43 ASV - it is sown in dishonor; it is raised in glory: it is sown in weakness; it is raised in power:
1Cr 15:44 ASV - it is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body. If there is a natural body, there is also a spiritual [body].
1Cr 15:45 ASV - So also it is written, The first man Adam became a living soul. The last Adam [became] a life-giving spirit.
1Cr 15:50 ASV - Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
I love the word of God so I have the whole word to love, not one special verse, matter of fact they all tie in like a wonderful tapestry. Paul is saying here this word has the power to regenerate us spiritually, and in the end physically change us to a glorified being. Jesus after his death on the cross was changed physically. He told the people he was not yet glorified in his body, but then a short time after that he began to walk through walls and show himself to his disciples. Eating and drinking just as they. And he even told them to feel me touch me and see. Zacchaues and his household was changed that day by faith. He sought the Lord and found him. And the word says that those that seek for him shall find him. Even the man that found a pearl of great price, was looking when he found it,and that being Jesus. Even repentance is a gift of God 2Ti 2:24 ASV - And the Lord's servant must not strive, but be gentle towards all, apt to teach, forbearing,
2Ti 2:25 ASV - in meekness correcting them that oppose themselves; if peradventure God may give them repentance unto the knowledge of the truth, Its the heart, God wants your heart , your soul. Act 15:8 ASV - And God, who knoweth the heart, bare them witness, giving them the Holy Spirit, even as he did unto us;
Rom 10:10 ASV - for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
;Hbr 4:12 ASV - For the word of God is living, and active, and sharper than any two-edged sword, and piercing even to the dividing of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and quick to discern the thoughts and intents of the heart
2Ti 2:20 ASV - Now in a great house there are not only vessels of gold and of silver, but also of wood and of earth; and some unto honor, and some unto dishonor.
2Ti 2:21 ASV - If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, meet for the master's use, prepared unto every good work.
2Ti 2:22 ASV - after righteousness, faith, love, pace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart. A VESSEL UNTO HONOR. The Lord saw Zacchaeus in his heart, and he also sees you and he wants to come to your house and bring salvation to your whole house. The word above said for with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Confession of this great word and by faith believe.
Luk 19:2 ASV - And behold, a man called by name Zacchaeus; and he was a chief publican, and he was rich.
Luk 19:3 ASV - And he sought to see Jesus who he was; and could not for the crowd, because he was little of stature.
