Scripture:
"As they ministered to the Lord and fasted, the Holy Ghost said; separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them." - Acts 13:2

What is needed in the kingdom of God today is divine enlistment. Jesus said that the fields were white unto harvest but the laborers were few. The condition has not changed today. Church leadership and church organizations have struggled to fill pulpits, man ministries in the local church and fill mission station all around the world. Using various methods they have endeavored resolve this problem of recruiting laborers into the Lord’s harvest.

Unfortunately many a church pastor has failed in his attempt to recruit faithful men and women to fill the needed positions. There have been some who have attempted to recruit by different tactics. Many appeal to man’s sympathy in hopes of enrolling them into divine service. Sadly most find their attempts to be unsuccessful.

What then is the solution? The church needs more laborers in the field of harvest if the kingdom is going to advance. The answer is divine calling. It is a divine call that is needed not improve motivational tactics that attempt to attract sensitivity to human need. A divine call that can most readily will be perceived in an atmosphere of worship.

God called Paul and Barnabas when they ministered unto the Lord and fasted. Their missionary call was not based upon an emotional appeal but by divine mandate. It was not the wooing of the needy masses that activated them but a divine call to action by the Holy Spirit.

What the church needs more than improved enlistment strategies is worshipping saints. A worshipping saint is more likely to hear God’s call and embrace it than one who doesn’t. It is the worshipping saint that will be motivated by a divine summons to action. The laborer who has been recruited by a divine sense of destiny and calling is far more likely to be faithful than one who has been recruited by swallow enlistment tactic that appeal to man’s emotions and sympathies.
