Why Must We CONTINUE to GATHER SOULS into CHURCH?

 Ingathering of souls into the church is the commandment of Christ - Matt. 12:30

There is no security of anyone's redemption until he/she is planted in the house of the Lord - Psa. 92:12

Harvest from the farm is only secure in the storehouse, not on the field, because any harvest left on the field stands the risk of being eaten up by the birds of the air, that is, demon spirits Luk. 8:5

Most of the time, we keep having to go back to 're-harvest' the same souls over and again because the harvest was left on the field uncared for.

This is why we must commit ourselves to ensuring that the harvest is brought into the 'spiritual' storehouse, that is, the church -Mal. 3:10

Jesus saw the task on ingathering as a must, saying, "And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I MUST bring" Jn. 10:16

In addition, Jesus commanded us in the parable of the great feast, "Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled" - Luk. 14:23

This is why the ingathering of harvested souls from the field is a 'MUST-BE-DONE' task.

According to scriptures, we are only empowered to live a triumphant life, flourish like a palm tree, grow up like the cedar in Lebanon, bring forth fruit in old age, as we remain planted in the house of God. Psa. 92:12-15

Why Must we bring Harvested Soul into Church?

1.  For their Preservation ~ "But upon mount Zion shall be deliverance, ... and the house of Jacob shall possess their possessions" 
2. For their access to the blessings of redemption ~ "For the Lord hath chosen Zion; .... I will abundantly bless her provision", - Psa 132: 13-15
3. For their Spiritual Growth and Development

   ~ "They go from strength to strength, every one of them in Zion appeareth before God". -Psa 84:7

4. For Diverse Encounters with the Life transforming Word of God

   ~ "Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end - Psa 73:17

5. For their Sanctification

   ~ They are required to be in church often lest they be hardened through deceitfulness of sin - Heb. 3:3, 1 Cor. 6:9-11

6. To avoid wasted labour on our part

   ~ It takes wisdom of ingathering to take over a city for Christ. Eccl. 9:14-18, Eccl. 10:15

7. To secure our own Rewards

   ~ In addition, soul-establishment prayers entitles us to open rewards Jn. 4:36, Col 4:12.

All of the above is why we must all go out in this prophetic season, securing the souls of men and women across our harvest field by harvesting them into the kingdom and bringing them into church.

Each one's labour within this prophetic season shall be supernaturally rewarded.

Jesus is Lord
