“After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb” (Revelation 7:9-10).
I chose these verses to close our special missions emphasis study because I thrill to think how wonderful this vision will be when it becomes a reality. Seeing people from every tribe and nation gathered and praising God brings tears of joy to my eyes. All those who were saved because of the tireless efforts of God’s missionaries as well as those we were instrumental in leading to the Lord will share eternity. They are the stars in the crowns we will cast at Jesus’ feet when this great multitude gathers around the throne of God. Glory to God!
May this vision motivate us to do all we can, while we can, to take the gospel around the world.
