We join with you in crying out to Jesus, the Lord of the Harvest, for the urgent need of laborers to be raised up, equipped, and sent into the fields that are ripe for harvest. Your heart for the lost and your fervent prayers align with the very words of our Savior, who looked upon the multitudes with compassion and declared, *"The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Therefore, plead with the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest"* (Matthew 9:37-38, WEB). You have rightly recognized the urgency of this hourāhow the enemy rages because he knows his time is short (Revelation 12:12), and how the fields are already white for harvest (John 4:35). We must not delay, for the season of readiness does not last forever.
We praise you for your boldness in prayer, invoking the name of Jesus and standing on the promises of Scripture. It is only through His name that we have access to the Father, and it is only by His authority that we can bind the works of the enemy and advance the Kingdom of God. As you have mentioned, we are called to bind the forces of darkness through prayer and fasting (Matthew 17:21, Mark 9:29), and to walk in the power of the Holy Spirit, who equips us with everything we need to fulfill the Great Commission (Acts 1:8).
Yet, as we pray, let us also examine our own hearts. Are we willing to be the answer to this prayer? Jesus did not merely ask His disciples to pray for laborersāHe also commissioned *them* to go (Matthew 28:19-20). The call to intercede is also a call to action. Are we prepared to lay down our comforts, our fears, and our excuses to be the workers He sends? The fields are ripe, but the workers must be willing. Let us ask the Lord to search our hearts and reveal any hesitation or disobedience that may be hindering us from fully stepping into the role He has prepared for us.
We also lift up your request for protectionāfrom temptation, sin, evil people, and the evil one. Jesus taught us to pray, *"Bring us not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one"* (Matthew 6:13, WEB), and we know that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of wickedness (Ephesians 6:12). We declare the blood of Jesus over every laborer, every mission field, and every heart that is being prepared to receive the Gospel. May the Lord grant us discernment to recognize the schemes of the enemy and the wisdom to stand firm in the armor of God (Ephesians 6:10-18).
Finally, we agree with you in praying for the provision of all that is needed: calling, intimacy with Christ, power to proclaim and demonstrate the Word, the fruit and gifts of the Holy Spirit, open heavens in prayer, favor with leaders and governments, and signs and wonders that confirm the Gospel. May the Lord grant us humility, for *"God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble"* (James 4:6, WEB), and may we walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, fully pleasing to Him (Colossians 1:10).

**Let us pray together:**
Heavenly Father, we come before You in the mighty name of Jesus, the Lord of the Harvest, and we thank You for the urgency You have placed in our hearts for the lost. Lord, we echo the words of Your Son: the harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. We plead with You to raise up laborersābold, equipped, and anointedāwho will go into the fields that are white for harvest. Stir the hearts of Your people, Lord, and let no one say, *"Here I am, send him,"* but rather, *"Here I am, send me!"* (Isaiah 6:8).
We ask for a fresh outpouring of Your Holy Spirit upon Your Church. Grant us the power to preach the Gospel with signs following, to heal the sick, cast out demons, and to love the lost as You do. Break every chain of fear, complacency, and distraction that keeps Your people from stepping into their calling. Lord, let Your fire fall upon us again, that we may burn with passion for Your Kingdom.
We bind the enemy in the name of Jesus and declare that his plans to hinder the harvest will be thwarted. By the blood of Jesus, we cancel every assignment of darkness against the laborers, the missions, and the souls You are drawing to Yourself. Let angels be dispatched to war on our behalf, to open doors no man can shut, and to prepare the way for the Gospel to advance unhindered.
Provide for Your workers, Lordāspiritually, physically, and financially. Let no lack prevent the Gospel from going forth. Grant us favor with kings and all in authority (Proverbs 21:1), that Your Word may run swiftly and be glorified (2 Thessalonians 3:1). Let the earth yield its increase, and may every resource needed for the harvest be released in abundance.
We also pray for protection over every laborer. Hide them under the shadow of Your wings (Psalm 91:4), and let no weapon formed against them prosper (Isaiah 54:17). Keep them from temptation, deliver them from evil, and let their lives be a testimony of Your grace and power.
Finally, Lord, we ask that You would prepare the hearts of those who will hear the Gospel. Soften the soil of their hearts, that the seed of Your Word may take root and bear much fruit. Let there be a great ingathering of souls into Your Kingdom, and may Your name be glorified in all the earth.
We ask all these things in the precious and mighty name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior, who alone is worthy of all praise, honor, and glory. Amen.
"Do you not say, āThere are still four months and then comes the harvestā? Behold, I say to you, lift up your eyes and look at the fields, for they are already white for harvest!" John 4:35. Jesus, You're The Lord of The Harvest. We fervently ask for workers and laborers to be raised up, called, prepared, equipped, provided for, sent out and sustained by prayer, fellowship and finances for Your harvest. Help us understand agricultural crop readiness does not last forever and the time is short, and this is why the devil rages so, Rev 12:12. We ask he is bound and hindered by prayer and fasting, Dan 9:3, Matt 17:21, Mk 9:29. Grant us all we need: calling, intimacy with You, power to know, do and show the Word, to hear and obey Your Voice, provision, fruit of The Holy Spirit, gifts, power on The Word, a walk worthy of the Lord, open heavens in prayer and intercession, favor with leaders, government and missions teams, signs, wonders, humility and the protection from temptation, sin, evil people and the evil one, Matt 6:13, Luke 11:4, 2 Thes 3:2, John 17:15, in Your Name, Jesus, You are The Amen, 2 Cor 1:19-20, Rev 3:14.
