new challenge for the new year --pray for us & the unreached!!

"Do not withhold good from those who deserve it, when it is in your power to act. Do not say to your neighbor, 'Come back later; I'll give it tomorrow.'-When you now have it with you." Proverbs 3:27
For the past 2,000 years, the gospel has been available to be preached, but the workers have been few. Many breakthroughs in technology and transportation have made it possible to get this life-changing message to more people. Ships, airplanes, films, radio, and the Internet are all great tools, but many are still out of reach. Do we have any excuse to withhold this great message? Or is it just a lack of concern?

Pray that we will do what it takes to give good to those unreached nations who deserve a chance to enter His Kingdom.

Proverbs 16:2

"All a man's ways seem innocent to him, but motives are weighed by the Lord."

Part of what is difficult about frontier mission work is the motivation. There have been times in Church history when mission work was misused by people who used it to expand the political power of an empire. The Russian and the Spanish empires both used mission work to expand their influence among newly-conquered peoples. But in each case, there were missionaries who wanted to glorify God rather than a measly empire.

Pray that our hearts will be pure as we pray for the unreached, so that we will have the power to keep His Kingdom first and foremost in our hearts.
