1ST SEEK GOD is Spreading The Bible
in 8 Languages

We are REACHING Persecuted Christians

We focus on reaching Christians who are brutally persecuted because of their faith in Jesus. They can be killed or jailed simply because they believe in Jesus or have a Christian Bible. We provide a way for them to read The Bible in secret.

We are REACHING the Unreached

3.43 Billion people live in places with very few, or no, native Christian communities. So the harvest is large, but the workers are few. They're classified as unreached because they are extremely hard to reach in person. We reach them online, starting with countries with less than 1% Christians. 

We are SPREADING The Bible

We are spreading the Word of God to people of all nations. Having limited resources, we start with persecuted Christians and unreached people. We want them to read reliable translations of The Bible in their first language.


We are PRAYING

We pray to God to give the persecuted perseverance and forgiving hearts. We pray for their persecutors because eternally they'll face the worst unless their hearts of stone become hearts of flesh. We pray that unreached people will receive The Bible in their first language.

We are praying for Secret Christians.
They can often not tell their closest family that they believe in Jesus.

The 50 most dangerous countries for Christians to live

The World Watch List 2024 reveals the top 50 most dangerous countries for Christians to live in. Open Doors reported the following incidents:

  • 4,998 Christians were killed for their faith

  • 14,766 churches and other Christian buildings attacked

  • 4,125 believers detained without trial, arrested, sentenced or imprisoned

Open Doors also reports that:

  • 1 in 7 Christians worldwide experiences high levels of persecution.

  • 1 in 5 Christians are persecuted in Africa.

  • 2 in 5 Christians are persecuted in Asia.

  • Over 365 million Christians living in places where they experience high levels of persecution and discrimination for their faith in Jesus.

  • 13 countries are scoring in the “extreme” level for their persecution of Christians, while six years ago, North Korea was the only one.

These numbers are heart-breaking. And yet, they do not tell the whole story. James 1:2-4 says:

“Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many kinds because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance.”

We urge all Christians to 1ST SEEK GOD, no matter their circumstances, because that's what The Bible teaches.

We urge you to earnestly
1ST SEEK GOD
This is how:

Study The Bible

Read and study The Bible from beginning to end, over and over again. Drink from the living Word of God, so that the water Jesus gives will become in Him a well of water springing up to eternal life.

Have Christian Fellowship

Frequently get together with fellow Christians. "Do not give up meeting together and keep on encouraging one another. Spur on one another toward love and good deeds, and all the more as you see the Day approaching."

Pray Continually

Pray every day and every night. Please pray for all our brothers, sisters and children in Christ, but especially for those who live in places where it is extremely hard to follow Jesus.

Spread the Good News

Spread the gospel and tell people: 
"If you declare with your mouth, 'Jesus is Lord,' and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved."

"It may be surprising, but Christian Persecution worldwide is one of this era's biggest human rights issues."

We are Praying for Secret Christians

For this reason, ever since I heard about your faith in the Lord Jesus and your love for all God’s people, I have not stopped giving thanks for you, remembering you in my prayers. 

I keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know Him better.

I pray that the eyes of your heart may be enlightened in order that you may know the hope to which God has called you, the riches of His glorious inheritance in His holy people, and His incomparably great power for us who believe. 

That power is the same as the mighty strength He exerted when He raised Christ from the dead and seated Jesus at His right hand in the heavenly realms, far above all rule and authority, power and dominion, and every name that is invoked, not only in the present age but also in the one to come.

Amen

42.1% people of the
World Population
are Unreached

Right now, in 2024 the world population is 8.08 Billion people.

3.43 Billion of them are Unreached!

Western Sahara and Maldives are 100% Unreached.

According to the Joshua Project, "unreached" means there's no indigenous community of believing Christians with adequate numbers and resources to evangelize this people group without outside assistance.

It's, therefore, extremely hard to evangelize them in person.

We pray to God to send Christian evangelize them in person, but in the meantime, we do all we can to spread the gospel to them online.

We prioritise reaching the worst persecuted and people living in countries with less than 1% Christians.

The goal is to provide a way for them to read The Bible, in secret, chapter by chapter in their first language. 

People living in these countries are extremely hard to reach in person:

  • Western Sahara _ 0% Christians

  • Maldives _ 0.01% Christians _ 18th worst Persecuted

  • Somalia _ 0.8% Christians _ 2nd worst Persecuted

  • Libya _ 0.5% Christians _ 3rd worst Persecuted

  • Eritrea _ 47% Christians _ 4th worst Persecuted

    The 1ST SEEK GOD Mission:

    What?
    Spread good translations of The Bible in multiple languages, chapter by chapter so people can read The Bible in their first language.
    Who?
    People of all nations, but we prioritize Christians who are most brutally persecuted and countries with no local Christian community because there are less than 1% Christians.
    How?
    Online because it provides a way for them to read The Bible in secret and in some instances it can't be easily traced.
    When?
    Every day, except Sundays.

    Why? 
    The harvest is large and the workers are few.

    We have limited resources, but God multiplies it miraculously.

The harvest is large, but the workers are few.
So, pray earnestly to the Lord who gives the harvest to send out workers to harvest His crops.

In the meantime, we're doing all we can to spread The Bible online to Persecuted Christians and Unreached People.
