Pray the word with David Platt is a resource from radical.net.

Acts chapter 10 verse 34 and 35.

So Peter opened his mouth and said,

Truly I understand that God shows no partiality,

but in every nation,

anyone who fears him and does what is right is acceptable to him.

This was a watershed moment in the New Testament

as the Gentiles were being reached with the gospel and God was opening up Peter's

eyes and his heart to the realization that Jesus didn't just die for the Jewish people.

He died for the nations for all the peoples of the world and that he is seeking worshippers for his glory from all the people of the earth.

And so, I mean, from here on in Peter's perspective and really the church begins to wrestle in a whole

new way with how do we make the Jewish Messiah known among all the nations and bring into the church

Gentiles people from every nation and so that was a watershed moment there that continues today.

So there are still many, many peoples from different nations.

Don't think nations, just geopolitical entities, countries, nations, but think of think

nations, just geopolitical entities, countries, nations, but think of ethnic groups of people in the world.

So praying today, try to pray for an unreached people group each day and so praying a day for the Kurds in

Turkey so just to give you a little picture portrait of the Kurds in Turkey so

about eight and a half million of Kurds in Turkey, so about 8.5 million of them in Turkey, nearly 15 million Kurds

in the world and among Kurdish people in Turkey, the predominant religion, Islam, living the northern Kurds of Turkey,

live in a pretty rugged area, have been pretty fiercely independent and many of them having little to no

knowledge of the gospel so few believers today in Turkey and so just bring acts 10 to bear on that reality
