Seeing angels, having visions… we must have read about it. Have we experienced it? Cornelius experienced it. His life story is written in Acts 10. What does the Bible say about him? Verse 2 says, He was a devout, God-fearing man, as was everyone in his household. He generously gave to the poor and regularly prayed to God.
It means he was a man who sought God through prayer regularly. He was doing good to the poor as much as he found to do. Not only him, but his whole household feared God. And the most beautiful thing about this chapter is—God saw them and their devotion. He came forward to reveal Himself to them.
This makes Peter say the following verse about God. Verse 34 says, I see very clearly that God shows no favoritism. In every nation, He accepts those who fear Him and do what is right. And He poured the gift of the Holy Spirit over them (verse 44). How good and great is our God. He sees, He follows us to answer whenever we seek Him with the fear of God.
Peter, on the other hand, understood the heart of the Lord and ministered unto people as God wanted him to minister to them. He refused when they bowed down at his feet. He stopped Cornelius and asked him to give such worship to God alone.
Hey friend, how blessed are we to know, worship, and love the Lord our God—the God who searches, blesses, and reveals Himself to those who seek Him truly.
Jeremiah 29:13: "You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart."
Dear God, thank You for Your love. Thank You for revealing Your name to us. Bless us and our family with the fear of the Lord. When You look at us, may You see a godly generation who continually prays unto You. May we not be far away from knowing You through visions. May hearing Your voice be our daily experience, Lord. Bless our families with a generous heart when it comes to giving to the poor. In Jesus' name we pray, Amen.
Toooo good
