But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and in His law he meditates day and night. – Psalm 1:2
Ethiopia is a land with a heritage of faith and enduring traditions, making it a cornerstone of Christian influence in Africa. As one of the oldest Christian nations in the world, the gospel has deep roots here and many take delight in God’s Word. However, some still long for the truth found in the Bible, especially those in the northern regions who speak Tigrinya. Amidst economic hardship, political unrest, and spiritual searching, the message of Jesus Christ brings light and life to those who hear it.
Here’s an inspiring testimony from a Tigrinya listener:
“I have listened to you for many years. Your program is very educational and a guide; it has been a blessing in my life, as well as for my family. We are happy for the announcement of a second round of this program. We will inform our friends to follow you. Personally, the program brought me back to Christianity from the wrong paths I had taken for many years. I will keep listening and learning about the Bible. I would like to praise our God for this chance to live in His house, and serve Him with our actions, thoughts, and minds.”
God is doing a great work in Ethiopia! THRU the BIBLE’s broadcasts allow many to hear the message of salvation in their own language, and hearts are being transformed. As we reflect on Psalm 1:2, we see that those who delight in God’s Word find guidance, wisdom, and true blessing. The impact of God’s Word is immeasurable, shaping lives, strengthening faith, and bringing renewed hope to those who have been searching for truth.
Listeners across Ethiopia are discovering the peace that only Jesus can provide. Each testimony serves as a powerful reminder that the gospel is alive and active, touching hearts in ways we can never fully grasp. Let’s continue to praise Him for His work in this nation and ask Him to draw even more people to Himself.
Prayer Points:
- Pray for salvation – That more Tigrinya speakers hear God’s Word, accept God’s gift of salvation, and come to know Jesus as their Savior.
- Pray for strength – That believers facing hardships and persecution will remain steadfast in their faith and strengthened by God’s promises.
- Pray for peace – That communities across Ethiopia will experience unity and healing through God’s Word and THRU the BIBLE’s programs.
