BEFORE THE NATIONS

Tobit 13:3-4

Give thanks to Him before the nations,
O children of Israel,
For He scattered us among them.
Make known His greatness there;
Exalt Him in the presence of all the living,
For He is our Lord and God;
He is our Father unto all the ages.

Personal Challenge

Just as God scattered the Israelites throughout the known world of their early days, so has He scattered His Church throughout the world today. Why has He done this? He has done this so that His message, His Good News, can be shared with every people group in the world. He is not ready to end this age until everyone has had the opportunity to hear of Him. This is where we come in. We are the ones that are to be giving thanks to Him before all the nations. We are the ones that are to be exalting Him in the presence of the living. He is our Lord and God, our Father onto all ages, and we are to be proclaiming Him everywhere. Glory be to God!
