In less than 2 minutes almost 10,000 people lost their lives. Many of you have heard and seen the news on the earthquakes in Nepal. Saturday, April 25 started out like any other day for the people in Nepal, but thousands were about to face eternity.
Whenever I hear of major tragedies and disasters like this, I ask myself whose population just increased by 10,000? Heaven or hell? Our contact and close friend in Nepal says that close to 97% of his country is either Hindu or Buddhist, so I think I know the answer to my own question.
Then I think, what if we had sent more missionaries and teams into this tiny country? What if more people said “yes” to the call of missions? What if the indigenous Christians were fully resourced and covered in prayer? Would 97% of those who died be in hell right now?
In Luke 21:8-11, Jesus says “8 Watch out that you are not deceived. For many will come in my name, claiming, ‘I am he,’ and, ‘The time is near.’ Do not follow them. 9 When you hear of wars and uprisings, do not be frightened. These things must happen first, but the end will not come right away.” 10 Then he said to them: “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. 11 There will be great earthquakes, famines and pestilences in various places, and fearful events and great signs from heaven.
Jesus said these things would happen, but more importantly, He said do not be deceived. Up until a few weeks ago, most of the country of Nepal was devoted to Satan, who masks himself as Hindu and Buddhist gods. Let’s pray and work together to reach this country for Jesus, so the people are no longer deceived.
