“And they sang a new song, saying, “Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation” -Revelation 5:9, ESV

Gospel Multiplication

God has encouraged and challenged me for many years through this passage. Today we know there are thousands of people groups who are still unreached by the gospel, yet we also know they will be represented before the throne in heaven, lifting their voices to sing of Christ’s worthiness to be praised.

When I think about this, I’m greatly challenged by God about what I am doing to reach the unreached and fulfill the mandate of Christ to make disciples of all nations. He’s shown me that by training local leaders, I can be a part of multiplying His gospel among those far from Christ.

I am very grateful for the opportunity to train people of other cultures who are filled with the same passion as me, and who are incredibly faithful to bring the gospel to the unreached in their nations.

Fulfilling the Mandate

How is God challenging you to make disciples today?

Lord, show us ways we can support those who are sent to share the gospel among the unreached and how we can be witnesses where You’ve placed us. Amen.
