Title: God’s Heart for the Nations

Text: Psalm 67

• God’s desire is to bless His people so that He will be praised by all peoples everywhere

• It is tempting to disconnect God’s purpose from God’s blessings in my life

• Significance in my life is found in devoting myself to a purpose that is larger than my

own life

• God’s gracious purpose is to show His loving and just nature on the cross in order to

redeem a people from every tribe, tongue, language, and nation for the sake of His

ultimate glory in worldwide worship.
