Book Review: Visions of the Harvest by Rick Joyner

Rick Joyner’s “Visions of the Harvest”

Reviewed by Jim Goodhart

THIS book will bring vast encouragement to missionaries, pastors and anyone in ministry. It is motivating thousands of young leaders and students to prepare for the great wave of conversions that he believes is about to hit planet earth. It is a compelling vision of an End Times harvest of souls that promises to bring in the church from all nations before Christ returns. This message is needed by every mission-minded Christian. Like so many of Brother Joyner’s other visionary works, they bring us to fresh repentance and zeal for the work of the Lord.

The visions in this book are specific warnings that point out the great need to prepare both ourselves and local congregations for what is coming. Widely viewed by many as an End Times pastor and prophet, Rick Joyner pleads for us to be like surfers who practice on small waves knowing that the “perfect wave” is coming. He calls for us to be like a ship’s captain who drills his crew every week to be fully prepared for whatever arises.

Rick Joyner believes we need to be working on a united response, pulling together and being prepared at all times. The visions Pastor Joyner shares in this book, one of several books he wrote on this subject, are keeping many young workers up in prayer all night. As I mentor young leaders, I am continually amazed at the immense amount of practical, Godly advice there is in this book and the others that followed in this series.

If you want to add some urgency and quality to your outreach ministry for the Lord, you can’t do any better than ordering and reading this book.
