There was a man who lived in Caesarea and his name was Cornelius. He was an officer in the Roman army. His group of soldiers was called ‘The Group from Italy’.  Cornelius was a good man. He and all his family served God faithfully. Cornelius prayed to God every day. He also gave money to help poor Jewish people. One afternoon, at about three o'clock, Cornelius had a vision. He clearly saw one of God's angels. The angel came in and said to him, ‘Cornelius!’ Cornelius looked at the angel and he was afraid. He asked, ‘Master, why have you come to me?’ The angel answered, ‘God has heard your prayers. He knows about all the money that you give to poor people. This has pleased him. Now God is answering your prayers...

What gives God memories is your generosity towards his mission. Those who will recieve long life were remembered by God for their giving.

"He prayed, ‘Lord, please remember that I have served you well. I have always obeyed you. You could trust me to do the things that you told me to do.’ Hezekiah wept very much."

The owner of the above prayer was King Hezekiah who had received 15 more years of extension to his life because He was generous in His service to God.

For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me. Matthew 25:35-37


It is another opportunity to give to God ad this forum (christianforums.net) is now raising funds to renew its yearly hosting service. We all will be blessed when we give from the bottom of our heart towards a gospel forum that accommodate all and sundry in the name of our Lord Jesus.

The Bible says this about someone who helps other people: ‘He has shared his things with many poor people. God will always remember how kind that person has been.’ 2 Corinthians 9:9

Prayer: God I won't stop giving to help your mission on earth for Jesus Christ sake. Help me in the name of Jesus to be in your remembrance always. Remember me every time for good. Amen.
