Break Up Your Fallow Ground - 453

Hosea 10:12

Sow for yourselves righteousness;



Reap in mercy;


Break up your fallow ground,





For it is time to seek the LORD,


Till He comes and rains righteousness on you.
 
Miracles that follow the plow.  ~ Audio Sermon by A.W. Tozer

Common Man - 439


i remember hearing Richard Wurmbrand talking about a keen interest in the common man.  So many people that are born, work in a factory, and die without much of any great fanfare.  Wurmbrand remarked that God created so many common men / people, that He must really love them.  Jesus came as a carpenter, not a noble or king, not of high standing in society - He related to the common man, by being one of them and living among them.  What a better way to minister to people than through understanding where they are coming from by being in their midst.  Can you reach who you are trying to minister to from within the walls and closed doors of your church?  Look to the common, the simple, where you stand this moment - this is your ministry, right under your feet.  You are standing in the harvest fields.
