"From the rising of the sun to the place where it sets, the name of the LORD is to be praised. The LORD is exalted over all the nations, his glory above the heavens". (Psalm 113:3-4 NIV)
Empires, regimes, kingdoms, and governments of man have long sought to extend their reign to all corners of the Earth. At the height of its power, it was said that "the sun never sat on the British Empire". Man has a long history of conquering, acquiring, colonizing and controlling; all with the false hope that they will become something they cannot - sovereign.
We know that there is only ONE who is sovereign and we trust that He is busy building His Kingdom - a Kingdom consisting of worshipers from ALL NATIONS, TRIBES, AND TONGUES. How is he doing it? Though his worshipers! He has uniquely called and equipped each of his children to play a role in taking the Good News to those who have not heard. We, as children of the sovereign King, are called to participate in the expansion of the Kingdom to the Uttermost parts of the Earth.
What's your part? Has the Father gifted you with talent, education, resources, or all of the above? Prayerfully consider how God has chosen you to bring the Kingdom of God to those living in darkness.
