In the book of Revelation, God reveals to us a glimpse of the future: people from every tribe, tongue, and nation will worship Him together before the throne, singing and praising the one who took away their sin. Here at our training, we have been able to experience a little taste of that future promise. Every Sunday night, we worship God in the style of a different region of the world in many different languages. Our first week, we praised God in Spanish like you would find in South and Central America. It was really fun. The second and third weeks, we honored the God who is drawing Southeast Asians and Southern Africans to Himself. A really fun thing was dressing up for the African worship service:
Please pray for us this Sunday as we celebrate what God is doing in Europe, because Cameron will be reading a passage of Scripture in Romanian and Jessica will be singing a Romanian song.
After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. And they cried out in a loud voice:
“Salvation belongs to our God,
who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb.”
- Revelation 7:9-10
