ALL OVER THE WORLD

Today's reading: Revelation 12-17

"And I saw another angel flying through the heavens, carrying the everlasting Good News to preach to the people who belong to this world--to every nation, tribe, language, and people." Revelation 14:6 NLT

What Good News it is!

Did you know the Bible has been translated into 3,658 languages, according to the Bible League?

It's mass produced in over 167 countries.

It's reach has circled the world!

And still, in this technological age, in a time when we know as news happens on the other side of the world, during an era of connectivity--one in five people still do not have access to this Good News.

We think of this time of the year with fondness and we pray that 'there be peace on earth', but until the world knows about Jesus, there will be no peace.

This morning I'm praying for those people who translate the Bible, produce copies of God's Word, smuggle Bibles into foreign countries--and for those of us who are called to live out the pages of the Holy Bible in our walks.
