Prayer for the saints to realize that preaching the gospel is to be fishers of men

Pray that the saints would realize that preaching the gospel is to be fishers of men, which requires  contacting people patiently, again and again, until they are “caught” unto life and brought out of the world into the kingdom of the heavens (Matt. 4:18-20; Luke 5:9-10 and note 10²; Acts 11:18).

Mt. 4:18-20—Y caminando Jesús junto al mar de Galilea, vio a dos hermanos, Simón, llamado Pedro, y Andrés su hermano, echando la red en el mar, porque eran pescadores. Y les dijo: Venid en pos de Mí, y os haré pescadores de hombres. Y ellos, dejando al instante las redes, le siguieron.

Luke 5:9-10—For amazement had taken possession of [Simon Peter] and all who were with him, because of the catch of the fish which they took; and likewise also James and John, the sons of Zebedee, who were partners with Simon. And Jesus said to Simon, Do not be afraid. From now on you will be catching men alive.

Hch. 11:18—Entonces, oídas estas cosas, callaron, y glorificaron a Dios, diciendo: De manera que también a los gentiles ha dado Dios arrepentimiento para vida.
