Oh Lord I ask for the nations!!
Sometimes I start thinking about how God cares so much about the world because before He went back to Heaven, He told the disciples: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." He did not say: 'Go and talk to a few people and you are done.." He wanted us to reach the nations. He wanted us to have a heart for the nations. He cares a lot for all the people outside in the world.. He does not want us to be locked in our own worlds, He wants us to go and preach Salvation to everyone.
Sometimes we are so worried about of what am I going to wear? Oh my gosh! I dont have any new clothes! Or: Dang! This week I did not go out to eat! But you know what?! Have you ever thought about the hundreds of thousands of kids, women and men outside in the world that dont even have a house where to live.. That they just have a couple used and old-fashioned shirts and a damaged pair of sandals.. Maybe you do not see it everyday.. But that exists!
I am from Mexico, and thank God I grew up having all what I always wanted.. My dad died when I was nine, but my mom worked so hard (shes still does) to give me what I needed and more. But I could see when I walked on the streets all the people asking for money and extending their hands saying: Dame, Dame! Which means: Give me, Give me.. Give me what?! They dont care, their poverty status is so high, their belongings are almost nothing.. So they want anything you could give them.. Food, Money, Clothes.. It is sad, but it is real.. So everday, I try to be thankful with what I have and thank God for a new day, for my food, for the few things that I own..
I just ask God to take care of the peolpe who need stuff to live and to send people to tell the that they have hope, that theres someone how died for them to give them abundant life.. Eternal life!
You said, "ask and you will receive whatever you need."
You said, "pray and I'll hear from heaven,and I'll heal your land."
You said Your glory will fill the earthlike water the sea.
You said, "lift up your eyes;the harvest is here, the kingdom is near."
You said, "ask and I'll give the nations to you."
oh Lord, that's the cry of my heart.
Distant shores and the islands will see Your light as it rises on us..

God my prayer is that You will make me be part of the people who goes to the nations to reach the broken and hopeless.. That you will use me in Your perfect will.. I declare and believe that one day every knee will bow and worship You.. Amen
