Praying for the Global Work of Bible Translation

DAY 3 OF 7

Your Scripture gives light to my path and directs my steps. (Psalm 119:105)

"I didn't know God speaks my language," a believer in Slovakia exclaimed, joyfully receiving the Bible in his newly translated Roma language.

God is fluent in every language—and Scripture translation is catching up fast.

In 2010, reaching the world’s 7,000+ languages was expected to take 125 years. But in 2015, translation groups united, harnessed cutting-edge technology, and forged a path forward together. ​​Today, because of these united efforts, we are on track to see incredible progress by 2033.

You are living in one of history's most remarkable moments—the generation that will see:

  • 95% of the world’s population with access to a full Bible
  • 99.96% of the world with access to a New Testament
  • 100% of the world with access to at least some portion of Scripture
  • 2 full Bible translations will be available in the world’s most strategic 100 written languages

Psalm 119:105 says, “Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path.” The Bible shows us the way—it’s a treasure trove of wisdom, a manual for life's hardest moments, and a clear roadmap for faith.

Having God's Word in a language that speaks to your heart transforms everything.

When someone receives Scripture in their own language for the first time, they discover: God's Word is for everyone. Jesus came to seek and save the lost everywhere.

Through His Word, they find their path forward—no longer shrouded in darkness, but illuminated by Jesus' love.

Lord, thank You for bringing us to this historic moment! Show us our part in Scripture translation work worldwide. Protect and grow this Kingdom work. Let Your light guide the way as Your Word reaches all people waiting. In Jesus' name, amen.
