The influence of the Japanese people can be seen especially in the West with various electronic entertainment systems, television shows and comic books, manufacture of cars, producing medicines and medical equipment, work-holiday programs, cuisine and more. As a result, the culture of the Japanese and worldview are somewhat accessible and have a profound influence on Western thinking and worldview. The impact of the Japanese people can be felt all over the world.
This is why it is a great idea to reach out to the Japanese around you and make disciples. Once they come to know Him, hopefully they can share the Gospel. They could also use their influence to bring to Christ those in their social and work groups. The task of reaching the nations would become more accessible and the hope of Christ would reach even the darkest and unreached areas of the world. The Great Commission would be literally fulfilled and Christ obeyed. Their impact would be magnified by knowing Jesus and literally spreading the Kingdom wherever they go and have prominence in their areas of influence.
I imagine that this is what God has planned for his beloved Japanese people and just think about what an impact that would be for God and His Kingdom. This is my prayer, that the Japanese would come to know the Lord and use their positions of power and take Jesus to ends of the earth and impact the nation of Japan itself.
