Rhapsody Of Realities 28 November 2025 By Pastor Chris Oyakhilome (Christ Embassy): The Large-Scale Catch

TOPIC: The Large-Scale Catch (Rhapsody of Realities 28 November 2025)

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind (Matthew 13:47).

Rhapsody Of Realities For Today’s MESSAGE:

In soul winning, there’s the ministry of personal evangelism, the one-on-one relentless pursuit of souls until they’re fully won and established in the Faith. But there’s also the “large-scale catch.” The Lord Jesus, in our theme verse, likened the Kingdom of heaven to a net cast into the sea that gathered fish of every kind.

Picture a net thrown into the sea of humanity, drawing in people from every walk of life. That’s what happens through our mass evangelism efforts, our crusades, campaigns, and outreach programs where we reach out and haul sinners en masse into the Kingdom.

That’s what the Master describes in Matthew 13:47-48; our deliberate, organized effort to reach and bring in multitudes. It says, “Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind: Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.” That’s salvation, calling people to Christ, bringing them into the Church. That’s the drawing in of the harvest.

So, as a cell or fellowship group, as a church, zone or ministry, when are you casting the net? It’s good to encourage individual witnessing, people going out daily to tell others about the Lord Jesus. But there are times we must plan and act together to reach whole communities, cities, towns and nations with a clear, strategic mission to bring them into the Kingdom.

It’s time to organize and reach many en masse. Set a target where you plan to reach a hundred, a thousand, ten thousand, or a hundred thousand people at once and go for it. Perhaps your target is to reach a million people or more; go for it. The Lord will bring it to fruition. It’s His work, and we’re partners with Him. He’ll give you the strategies to succeed. Anything born of Him prevails, multiplies and blossoms. That’s the mindset you should have. He said the harvest is plenty, and we’re His labourers for the large-scale catch. Hallelujah!

PRAYER

Dear Father, thank you for showing me the power of both personal and collective evangelism. I’m committed to the end-time, large-scale harvest to gather multitudes into the Kingdom. All around the world, the collective soul-winning efforts of your children are producing results mightily in the nations, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
