“God hears the prayers of the devout, regardless of their background.”
Today’s daily devotional highlights the story of Cornelius and Peter. Cornelius, a Roman centurion, received a vision to send for Peter. Simultaneously, Peter received a vision about God’s inclusivity. When they met, Peter preached the gospel to Cornelius’ household, leading to their baptism and illustrating that God’s kingdom is open to all people.
SCRIPTURE
STORY
Have you ever found yourself confined by traditions or preconceived notions about who belongs in the kingdom of God?
The story of Peter and Cornelius is a powerful reminder that God’s love and salvation are not limited by human boundaries or cultural barriers.
Cornelius, a Roman centurion, was a devout man who prayed and did good deeds. Despite not being a Jew, his prayers were heard by God, and he received a vision instructing him to send for Peter. At the same time, Peter, while praying, had a vision that challenged his understanding of clean and unclean according to Jewish law. God’s voice told him, "What God hath cleansed, that call not thou common."
This dual revelation led to a transformative meeting between Cornelius and Peter. When Peter arrived at Cornelius’ house and saw his faith and eagerness to hear about Jesus, he understood the full meaning of his vision. Peter preached the gospel to Cornelius and his household, and they all believed and were baptized.
What does this teach us about God’s inclusivity? Peter’s experience shows that the gospel is for everyone, regardless of their background or ethnicity. Have you ever felt called to share God’s love with someone different from you? How can you embrace and act on that calling?
Cornelius’ story reminds us that God hears the prayers of all who seek Him sincerely, and He responds in ways that break down barriers and expand our understanding of His kingdom. Are you willing to let go of any prejudices or traditions that limit your view of whom God can reach?
REFLECTION
Reflect on areas in your life where you might have set boundaries on whom you think God’s message can reach. Consider how you can open your heart and mind to embrace the inclusivity of the gospel.
This week, focus on being open to God’s guidance, especially in situations that challenge your preconceived notions. Spend time in prayer, asking God to reveal any prejudices you may hold and to help you see others through His eyes.
PRAYER
Jesus thank You for showing me the most important lesson in my life when it comes to people. Thank You for showing me that whomever You deemed as clean and pure, no one can reverse it. Thank You for showing me Jesus that Your plan is for all people regardless of their ethnicity, economic standing, and upbringing. Similar to the life of Peter, use me in my industry to share stories of Your Goodness and Mercy. As I speak, let Your Holy Spirit charge and change the hearts of everyone listening, let Your loving kindness be put on full display. Like the centurion soldier and his family, may other families come to know the saving grace of Jesus Christ! You are the game changer, You are the way maker, and through me others will know that You have called them and Your desire to love on them! In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

John 4:26
*Prayer :*
Thank You, Jesus for revealing Yourself to me and letting me drink Your living water.
Lead me not to stay at the surface but to drink deeply at the well of Your living water.
May I embrace what You say here and enable me to share this living water with others as You shared it with this woman.
Help me to put the spiritual needs of people ahead of every other consideration.
You did not allow prejudice of race, culture, region or gender to keep You from sharing the good news.
You knew how to direct the conversation to spiritual things, how to gently confront her with her own sin, how to declare the truth, and how to draw her toward faith in You.
Help us to do the same with others.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
*_A Nice Weekend_*

Today's Prayer
Father in heaven, thank you for the price that was paid to bring us into a new covenant relationship with you. May my life be lived to honor that price and to fulfill that covenant. In Jesus' name. Amen.

The parents, friends and relatives were still busy running from pillar to pole.... Marching an emergency ultimate search for the little girl..
Friend's .... They all forgot the place of prayer and got carried away by human effort and yet the Host Of Heaven were Silently watching and anticipatively waiting for the voice of prayer.
While in the ritual camp..... with numerous victims awaiting for slaughter..... The little girl was fast asleep..
But something happened....✍️

Immediately she boosted into prayer.. Praying and fervently digging in prayers...
Other victims try every attempt to shut her down But she stood on the ground and keep disturbing heaven and immediately the Host of heaven reacted violently!
The whole camp was set In commotion....
The high priest was restless in his chamber and had to command some servant to check what is happening in the camp where the victims were kept waiting to be butcher the next morning!
Getting to the camp... They observed The land quaking With serious confusion.... And after several investigation.... All fingers keep pointing at the little girl!

▪️Friends......Do you understand Who you are in Christ?

▪️Friends......Do you understand Who you are in Christ?
▪️Brethren.....What has the enemy or the world called you?
Well, you are who God has said you are in Christ! .....But , do you really know and understand Who you are?
Ignorance is darkness and deadly.
Many they don't know and they don't understand who they are.....so they keep walking on in darkness.
Ignorance of who you are and what you have in Christ make you a cheap victim of the devil.
Quite unfortunately, many believers are still grovelling in poverty, disease, sin and all kinds of oppressive hardship of the enemy.
Why?
They know not neither will they understand.
You see, God didn't recreate you in Christ to die like men and like one of the princes.
But, until the truth of your divinity dawns on you and you walk in it, you can't be free from satanic lies and oppressions.
If you don't understand Who you are in Christ and what you have in him, the devil will keep telling you whom you are not and what you don't have.
God declared according to Hosea's 4:6..... *My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge*
▫️God's people are famished. Great potentials are gone into the grave!
▫️Many are limited and frustrated in life by the devil.
Why? 🤷♀️
It's all because they know noting.... neither will they..... this is a tragedy!
However, Jesus says. And you shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free ( John 8:32)
God has planned and programmed a victorious, meaningful. Fruitful and higher life for you in Christ. Praise God! 🙏
Therefore.... God says. Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth ( proverbs 4:5)
When you get the understanding of who you are in Christ ✝️ and you walk in the light of it, you will surely live a victorious, Meaningful, fruitful, higher and fulfilling life in Christ!
Hallelujah.....🙌
.... You must acquire understanding as an integral element of God's manifold Wisdom.
God says again,....Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all your getting get understanding (Proverbs 4:7)
He says choose to get the understanding of who you are in Christ Jesus.
It is the level of your accurate understanding of God's Word 📖 that makes you victoriously outstanding in life!
.....An end has come to your failures and frustration in your life, in Jesus' Name! 🙏
You see, the life you live here on earth is actually your responsibility.
Now.... Take the responsibility of understanding Who you are in Christ and start living in the light of it.
There is a higher life on Christ. The world's definitions of your life are wrong. The devil's perspective of your life is absolutely a lie. The Bible calls the devil a liar.
Therefore, all that you will encounter in this inspiration word will help you understand who you are in Christ according to God's word.
The Holy spirit....The spirit of truth will grant you quick understanding of his word through this write up. In Jesus' Name...🙌
May the Holy spirit through this write up help you choose that path of understanding and deliver yourself from the shackles of ignorance, Poverty failure, disease, limitation and all satanic forces that keep men down from fulfilling their destinies in Christ.
You'll discover, pursue and fulfill the purpose of God for your life, in Jesus' Name.... 🙌
