The Lord said, “I was found by people who were not looking for me. I showed myself to people who were not asking for me” (Isaiah 65:1). The transition between covenants did not change the fact that God is free to do the unexpected. In a world awash in confusing ideologies and theologies, the Lord will be discovered in ways our traditional thinking may not have considered.
The next great harvest of souls will be made up in large numbers of those who never thought they would become a follower of Jesus. These new ones will be amazed because they weren’t even looking for Him. This harvest will require that we who have a living relationship with Jesus lay down some of our preferences and trust God’s heart and His love for people to meet them in the most unexpected ways.
Thank you Garris. Interesting message. Your words fit into and describe a possible, maybe probable outcome of a realistic scenario beginning to take shape in my life.
Blessings
