All the ends of the world shall remember and turn unto the Lord: and all the kindreds of the nations shall worship before thee (Ps. 22:27).
It may not look like it now, but Christians belong to a winning cause. Someday their Lord will reign "from sea even to sea, and from the river even to the ends of the earth" (Zech. 9:10). "This gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations" (Matt. 24:14) when the angel of the judgment hour cries "to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people, saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him" (Rev. 14:6, 7).
There is a definite prophecy that "it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another, and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord" (Isa. 66:23). And in Psalm 72:11 we read: "All kings shall fall down before him: all nations shall serve him." When the King was born in Bethlehem of Judea, the angel said: "Thou...shalt call his name Jesus....And the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: and he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end" (Luke 1:31-33).
In this "house of Jacob" the overcomers will be gathered from all kindreds, all nations, all peoples, all tongues, over all the earth. He who was and is "the desire of all nations" (Haggai 2:7) has promised that the gospel of His worldwide kingdom shall be preached to all nations (Mark 13:10), and that those who believe shall be baptized and become one people through the "obedience to the faith among all nations" (Rom. 1:5). In Him all nations are to be blessed (Gal. 3:8). And to His city, the New Jerusalem, "the nations of them which are saved" shall enter in (Rev. 21:24).
MEDITATION PRAYER: "All nations whom thou hast made shall come and worship before thee, O Lord; and shall glorify thy name" (Ps. 86:9).
