Pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest.

The Lord of the harvest is Christ. When we pray the Lord for anything we must work to fulfill our own prayers. If we pray for laborers we must be willing to become laborers ourselves, or to send and sustain other laborers.. prayer is hypocritical if we do nothing to fulfill it. The sequel to these words, and the answer to this prayer, is in the sending forth of the Twelve, as narrated immediately. They were bidden to pray for laborers, did no doubt pray, and their prayers were answered, for the Lord of the harvest sent them. Do you pray the same prayer with an entire willingness to do his will, and perhaps he will send you.
