Topic: The Best is Yet to Come
Highlight: "He saw in a vision evidently about the ninth hour of the day an angel of God coming in to him, and saying unto him, Cornelius. And when he looked on him, he was afraid, and said, What is it, Lord? And he said unto him, Thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God." — Acts 10:3-4
Hello friend, I trust this meets you well.
I want to assure you that any miracles, signs, and wonders you have seen are just the tip of the iceberg; God has more in store than you have ever witnessed. When you have consistently given to God—just as Cornelius did—God sends messengers to bring you even better things. We are rising from our present perspectives to a higher realm, seated in the heavenly places.
Revelation 4:1 says: "After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter." This is exactly what God did for Cornelius. God led him to Peter so he could experience a higher dimension of worship: the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.
1 Corinthians 2:9 (NIV) states: "What no eye has seen, what no ear has heard, and what no human mind has conceived—the things God has prepared for those who love him." This emphasizes that God’s blessings and plans are beyond human perception, comprehension, or imagination. Our natural senses and intellect cannot fully grasp the spiritual reality God has planned for us. Cornelius obeyed immediately, sending servants to Joppa to find Peter. This led to a pivotal moment where the Gospel was shared with the Gentiles.
"Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons." — Acts 10:34 (KJV)
God has profound blessings kept for those who love Him. Keep loving the Lord.
Prayer: Father, through the greatness of heaven in our Lord Jesus Christ, I believe that the best is yet to come for me. Help me to love You and please You always. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
