GETTING OUT OF COMFORT ZONE

I READ: Acts 10:9-35, 2 Timothy 4:2

Often we are afraid to evangelize because it forces us to get out of our comfort zone.  Sometimes God reminds us to do things that are not comfortable for us, that make us hesitant to do them.  Today we are going to learn from Peter.  In his day, Jews did not associate with the Gentiles.  But one afternoon the Lord gave him a vision, that he must eat food that was forbidden to the Jews however Peter did not understand the meaning of that vision.  Cornelius who was an Italian (not Jewish) came to pick Peter up to go his house which for Peter, a Jew, was considered to be unclean but The Holy Spirit strengthened Peter to go with Cornelius.  He got out of his comfort zone to evangelize to non-Jews and that moment Peter realized what his vision meant.

I DECLARE:  2 Timothy 4:2 – Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season. Convince, rebuke, exhort, with all longsuffering and teaching.

I DO: What action will I take today after meditating the Word of God ?

I PRAY : Pray as guided by the Holy Spirit.
