Happy Sabbath!
Beautiful Cape Town is one of the world's most breathtaking cities. Nestled between the Atlantic Ocean and the majestic Table Mountain, Cape Town is home to approximately 5 million people and serves as South Africa's legislative capital.
South Africa is a nation of great diversity, with Christianity being the faith of the majority of its people. The Seventh-day Adventist Church has a strong presence throughout the country, with more than 150,000 members worshiping in hundreds of churches and congregations. Yet millions still need to hear the everlasting gospel message and the soon return of Jesus.
As we look at the grandeur of Table Mountain rising above the city, we are reminded of the words of Psalm 125:1 (NKJV): "Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever."
Whatever challenges you may be facing today, remember that God is your refuge and strength. He who created the mountains, the oceans, and the heavens above is watching over you. As the Sabbath hours begin, may your heart be filled with peace, your faith strengthened, and your eyes fixed on Jesus.
Let's pray for the people of Cape Town, for South Africa, and for the millions across southern Africa who are seeking hope, purpose, and the saving grace of Christ.
