Psalm 67 holds beautiful and powerful truth: God blesses His people so that all peoples and all nations may know Him.
When we pray, “Lord, bless us,” we are not asking for blessing merely for our own comfort or benefit. This Psalm reminds us that God’s blessings have a purpose. He pours out His grace so that His salvation may be known throughout the earth and so that people everywhere might praise His name!
The heartbeat of Psalm 67 is not simply blessing, it’s mission. God’s desire has always been for every tribe, tongue, people and nation to experience His love and saving power. From Genesis to Revelation, we see His heart for the nations. He invites His people to become channels through which His blessing flows to others.
Over the years, we have witnessed this truth firsthand. Through the faithful prayers and generosity of God’s people, lives have been transformed, leaders equipped, churches strengthened and communities impacted by the Gospel. And God continues to use His people to extend His blessing to the 4 in 10 who lack access to a local witness of the Gospel in their community.
“May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine upon us, that your way may be known on earth, your saving power among all nations.” Psalm 67:1-2
Partnership in this mission matters so much.
Every gift you give to The Wesleyan Church through Global Partners helps bring the hope of Christ to people who have yet to experience His saving power. Together, we are helping more people come to know Him and join in worshiping Him.
Would you prayerfully consider making a year-end gift to support this work?
