Jeremiah 16:16 (a) These are messengers of GOD sent throughout the world to find His people, the Jews, and bring them to Him for judgment.

Ezekiel 47:10 (a) This is a striking illustration of the power of the Spirit of GOD to make soul winners out of those who permit Him to dominate their lives. These fishers are men who, with the story of GOD's grace and love, are raised up in those happy surroundings where the Holy Spirit is Lord, is recognized and is trusted. In those churches where the Holy Spirit is free to work, men and women develop into personal workers who are successful in catching men and women for CHRIST. (See also Matthew 4:19; Mark 1:17; Luke 5:10).
