Isaiah 40:15, 17

Surely the nations are like a drop in a bucket…. Before Him all the nations are as nothing; they are regarded by Him as worthless and less than nothing.

When we stand before a wall-sized world map, we catch a glimpse of the immensity of this earth. Yet Isaiah asserts that when we stand before the Creator, the creation dwindles to comparative insignificance. What perspective this fact gives to God’s people! We are so easily overawed by the scope of the Great Commission that our resolve weakens and our courage fails. But God is greater than His commission, greater than His earth, greater than any obstacles we will face. And His power is so great that reaching all the nations for Christ is easy for Him. His love regards them as infinitely precious and worthy of the death of His Son.
