1. August 7 Jesus will one day return as King of kings with the nations as his inheritance. The church is to preach the Day of the Lord that is coming.

Now out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should strike the nations. And He Himself will rule them with a rod of iron. He Himself treads the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And He has on His robe and on His thigh a name written: KING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS. - Revelation 19:15-16 NKJV

2. August 8 All the Kingdoms that Satan tempted Jesus with will belong to Jesus’.

15 Then the seventh angel sounded; and there were loud voices in heaven, saying, "The kingdom of the world has become the kingdom of our Lord and of His Christ; and He will reign forever and ever." - Revelation 11:15 NASU

"Sing for joy and be glad, O daughter of Zion; for behold I am coming and I will dwell in your midst," declares the Lord. 11 "Many nations will join themselves to the Lord in that day and will become My people. Then I will dwell in your midst, and you will know that the Lord of hosts has sent Me to you. - Zech 2:10-11 NASU

3. August 9 Jesus is coming for a people of every nation and of every tongue.

9 After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could count, from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and palm branches were in their hands; 10 and they cry out with a loud voice, saying, "Salvation to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb." - Revelation 7:9-10 NASU

4. August 10 Sometime in the future there will be a tree with leaves to heal the nations.

22 Then he showed me a river of the water of life, clear as crystal, coming from the throne of God and of the Lamb, 2 in the middle of its street. On either side of the river was the tree of life, bearing twelve kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit every month; and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. - Revelation 22:1-2 NASU

5. August 11 God does not love the Jews more than anyone else. He chose them because of their size.

"For you are a holy people to the Lord your God; the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for His own possession out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth. 7 "The Lord did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any of the peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples, 8 but because the Lord loved you and kept the oath which He swore to your forefathers, the Lord brought you out by a mighty hand and redeemed you from the house of slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. - Deuteronomy 7:6-8 NASU

6. August 14 God loves all nations and peoples. And has chosen people from every nation and tribe that has ever been.

4 Now it shall come to pass in the latter days That the mountain of the Lord's house Shall be established on the top of the mountains, And shall be exalted above the hills; And peoples shall flow to it. 2 Many nations shall come and say, "Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, To the house of the God of Jacob; He will teach us His ways, And we shall walk in His paths. "For out of Zion the law shall go forth, And the word of the Lord from Jerusalem. 3 He shall judge between many peoples, And rebuke strong nations afar off; They shall beat their swords into plowshares, And their spears into pruning hooks; Nation shall not lift up sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war anymore. But everyone shall sit under his vine and under his fig tree, And no one shall make them afraid; For the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken. 5 For all people walk each in the name of his god, But we will walk in the name of the Lord our God Forever and ever. - Micah 4:1-5 NKJV

7. August 15 Once again God and His Son Jesus do not love one people group over another.

34 Opening his mouth, Peter said: "I most certainly understand now that God is not one to show partiality, 35 but in every nation the man who fears Him and does what is right is welcome to Him. - Acts 10:34-35 NASU

8. August 16 When it comes to God’s love; He doesn’t see or favor color, economic status or gender. If you belong to Christ, He see’s you.

For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27 For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus. 29 And if you belong to Christ, then you are Abraham's descendants, heirs according to promise. - Galatians 3:26-29 NASU

9. August 17 God calls Nineveh a great city. God recognizes accomplishments but does not overlook sin.

1 The word of the Lord came to Jonah the son of Amittai saying, 2 "Arise, go to Nineveh the great city and cry against it, for their wickedness has come up before Me." - Jonah 1:1-2 NASU

10. August 18 Nationalism started after the flood of Noah. Each nation had their own language.

From these the coastlands of the nations were separated into their lands, every one according to his language, according to their families, into their nations. - Genesis 10:5 NASU

These are the sons of Ham, according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, by their nations. - Genesis 10:20 NASU

These are the sons of Shem, according to their families, according to their languages, by their lands, according to their nations. 32 These are the families of the sons of Noah, according to their genealogies, by their nations; and out of these the nations were separated on the earth after the flood. - Genesis 10:31-32 NASU

11. August 21 More nations came from the father of many nations. The Abrahamic nations believe in one God unlike the Babylonians nations that believe in multiple gods.

17 Now when Abram was ninety-nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him,"I am God Almighty; Walk before Me, and be blameless. 2 "I will establish My covenant between Me and you, And I will multiply you exceedingly." 3 Abram fell on his face, and God talked with him, saying, 4 "As for Me, behold, My covenant is with you, And you will be the father of a multitude of nations. 5 "No longer shall your name be called Abram, But your name shall be Abraham; For I have made you the father of a multitude of nations. 6 "I will make you exceedingly fruitful, and I will make nations of you, and kings will come forth from you. - Genesis 17:1-6 NASU

12. August 22 God created all nations for good and has given something to bring to the world stage.

and He made from one man every nation of mankind to live on all the face of the earth, having determined their appointed times and the boundaries of their habitation, 27 that they would seek God, if perhaps they might grope for Him and find Him, though He is not far from each one of us; - Acts 17:26-27 NASU

13. August 23 All nations to this day have something to bring to the table. Egyptians brought mathematics. Babylon brought law and order. The Medes\Persians brought astronomy, and textiles. The Greeks brought philosophy. The Romans brought plumbing and sanitation, towns and architecture, roads, entertainment, etc. What did the Jews bring to the world stage? Find out tomorrow.

And as for Ishmael, I have heard thee: Behold, I have blessed him, and will make him fruitful, and will multiply him exceedingly; twelve princes shall he beget, and I will make him a great nation. - Genesis 17:20 KJV

14. August 24 Salvation was brought by the Jews. The only group of people that God has personally revealed himself before Jesus was raised from the dead. The gift from the Jewish nation was not well received or valued.

"You worship what you do not know; we worship what we know, for salvation is from the Jews. - John 4:22 NASU

3 Then what advantage has the Jew? Or what is the benefit of circumcision? 2 Great in every respect. First of all, that they were entrusted with the oracles of God. - Romans 3:1-2 NASU

15. August 25 The Jews rejected their gift to the nations by assisting the world to execute or crucify the Son of God, the Savior of the world. The Jews joined the globalists by declaring Caesar as their king.

So they cried out, "Away with Him, away with Him, crucify Him!" Pilate said to them, "Shall I crucify your King?" The chief priests answered, "We have no king but Caesar." - John 19:15 NASU

16. August 28 A new nation was born with the resurrection of Jesus.

9 But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light: - 1 Peter 2:9 KJV

17. August 29 Globalism started with the building of the tower of Babel; or 15-minute city.

11 Now the whole earth used the same language and the same words. 2 It came about as they journeyed east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar and settled there. 3 They said to one another, "Come, let us make bricks and burn them thoroughly." And they used brick for stone, and they used tar for mortar. 4 They said, "Come, let us build for ourselves a city, and a tower whose top will reach into heaven, and let us make for ourselves a name, otherwise we will be scattered abroad over the face of the whole earth." - Genesis 11:1-4 NASU

18. August 30 The kingdom of God is a global society with a universal language. Pentecost was the start of calling all the nations that were dispersed at the tower of Babel back to one God, one purpose, one baptism, and  only one name that one can be saved.

2 When the day of Pentecost had come, they were all together in one place. 2 And suddenly there came from heaven a noise like a violent rushing wind, and it filled the whole house where they were sitting. 3 And there appeared to them tongues as of fire distributing themselves, and they rested on each one of them. 4 And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit was giving them utterance. 5 Now there were Jews living in Jerusalem, devout men from every nation under heaven. 6 And when this sound occurred, the crowd came together, and were bewildered because each one of them was hearing them speak in his own language. 7 They were amazed and astonished, saying, "Why, are not all these who are speaking Galileans? 8 "And how is it that we each hear them in our own language to which we were born? 9"Parthians and Medes and Elamites, and residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the districts of Libya around Cyrene, and visitors from Rome, both Jews and proselytes, 11 Cretans and Arabs — we hear them in our own tongues speaking of the mighty deeds of God." 12 And they all continued in amazement and great perplexity, saying to one another, "What does this mean?" - Acts 2:1-12 NASU

19. August 31 Jesus is the only one worthy to rule a global government.

And they sang a new song, saying, "Worthy are You to take the book and to break its seals; for You were slain, and purchased for God with Your blood men from every tribe and tongue and people and nation. 10 "You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God; and they will reign upon the earth." - Revelation 5:9-10 NASU

20. September 1 Jesus sends his delegates and ambassadors to all the nations of the world with a message of forgiveness and reconciliation.

Therefore if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creature; the old things passed away; behold, new things have come. 18 Now all these things are from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation, 19 namely, that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and He has committed to us the word of reconciliation. 20 Therefore, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us; we beg you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. 21 He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf, so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. - 2 Corinthians 5:17-21 NASU
