“Salvation to our God who sits on the throne and to the Lamb!” —Revelation 7:10

Catherine’s work on Bible translation is based on love for God and people. Catherine rejoices when women in India come to a deeper understanding of Scripture by reading it in their native language. “When they read the Bible, they often start cheering and clapping their hands. When they read about Jesus, they say, ‘Oh, that’s great!'”

Catherine wants more people to read the scriptures in their own language. In this desire, she is guided by the vision of the apostle John on the island of Patmos. Through the Spirit, God led him to the heavenly throne room, where he saw “a great crowd that no one could count, from all peoples, tribes, nations, and languages, [that] stood before the throne and before the Lamb” (Rev. 7:9). They all praised God, saying: “Salvation to our God” (v. 10).

The Lord continues to increase the great number of people who glorify Him. He uses not only the work of Bible translators and those who pray for them, but also those who lovingly extend a helping hand to their neighbors, bringing them the good news about Jesus Christ. We can rejoice in this joyful mission, marveling at how God prompts more and more people to join in the angelic praise: “Glory, and wisdom, and praise, and honor, and strength, and power, to our God forever and ever” (v. 12).

Do you see how God moves people to praise and honor Him? How can He invite you to join His mission of spreading the Good News about Jesus?

Savior God, thank you for the gift of Jesus. Please help me to show Your amazing love to others.
