“Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons: But in every nation he that feareth him, and worketh righteousness, is accepted with him.” Acts 10:34-35 KJV
God is not moved by human status, background, tribe, nationality, or
social position; He responds to faith, reverence, righteousness, covenant, and
His divine purpose. Cornelius was a Gentile, yet God honored his prayers,
fasting, giving, and sincere fear of Him. His devotion rose before God as a
memorial, and his household was brought into the blessing of salvation. Beloved,
this means you are not excluded from God’s mercy, favour, and intervention. If
God answered Cornelius, He can answer you. If He opened a door for one, He can
open a door for you. God is no respecter of persons, but He is a respecter of
faith, for “without faith it is impossible to please him” (Hebrews 11:6). He is
a respecter of covenant, because He keeps covenant and mercy with those who
love Him (Deuteronomy 7:9). He is also a respecter of His purpose, because His
counsel shall stand.
Do not conclude that your situation is beyond God’s reach. You are
accepted in Christ, and you are the righteousness of God in Him. Whatever you
are going through will end in joy. All things are working together for your
good because you love God and are called according to His purpose (Romans
8:28). Your season of testimony has come.
Prophetic Word: I declare that God shall remember you for
good. The same God who answered Cornelius shall answer you. Your prayers,
sacrifices, service, and faith shall speak for you. Your testimony shall
manifest in Jesus’ name.
Prayer: Lord, thank You
because You are no respecter of persons. Help me to walk in faith, reverence,
righteousness, and obedience to Your purpose. Let my prayers and sacrifices
rise before You, and let my testimony manifest speedily. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
