I Will Be Exalted Among the Nations

For our brothers and sisters all over the world who are making disciples!
Ps.46:1010 "Be still, and know that I am God. I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth!"
My church has teams spreading the gospel all other the world. They have left family, jobs, friends and the comfort of home because there is nothing more important to them than sharing the love of Christ to the lost. Some are on short term missions, others are moving to other countries to live with native people who need to know the power of salvation in Christ. Some are in danger, some are received with open arms! God is in control of our lives. He holds our safety and our death in His hands. What are people of other religions afraid of? Why is there so much opposition for people to have the freedom to choose Jesus over false religions? The answer is Satan! He has this world in his grip and wants to take as many souls to hell, his kingdom, as possible. 2 Corinthians 4:4-5 In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. For what we proclaim is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake.”
Do you want freedom? It is found in Christ! We have been freed by His blood! Rev.1:5 and from Jesus Christ the faithful witness, the firstborn of the dead, and the ruler of kings on earth. To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood.
2 Cor.3:17  Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.
Until you are saved, you are in bondage to sin! Ps.146:1-8 Praise the LORD! Praise the LORD, O my soul! I will praise the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praises to my God while I have my being. Put not your trust in princes, in a son of man, in whom there is no salvation. When his breath departs, he returns to the earth; on that very day his plans perish.  Blessed is he whose help is the God of Jacob, whose hope is in the LORD his God, who made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, who keeps faith forever; who executes justice for the oppressed, who gives food to the hungry.The LORD sets the prisoners free;  the LORD opens the eyes of the blind. The LORD lifts up those who are bowed down; the LORD loves the righteous.
Romans 6:6-7 We know that our old self was crucified with him in order that the body of sin might be brought to nothing, so that we would no longer be enslaved to sin. For one who has died has been set free from sin.
Definition of exalted: to elevate by praise or in estimation : glorify
Glorify God in your life by making disciples! John 8:31-32 So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed in him, "If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples,  and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free."
Lord God Most High, open hearts to Your word and the freedom found only in Jesus. Amen
