Acts 10:33 (NKJV) 33 So I sent to you immediately, and you have done well to come. Now therefore, we are all present before God, to hear all the things commanded you by God."
When our oldest son was just beginning to discover his surroundings, I told Him, not to touch the hot fireplace we heated the house with, because it would burn him, he quickly responded, "I don't want to hear that anymore." Many people have the same mind set as adults, they are unresponsive and tired of hearing what the word of God says to them about their lives, their actions show their real heart attitude.
In this story Cornelius is fasting and praying, expecting from God blessings, however he has never met Jesus, God provides a way through the teaching of one of the Apostles of Christ, Peter, for Cornelius to hear and obey. Everyone in the house heard and received the One who saves us from our sins, with the presence of the Holy Spirit they were counted as partakers of the gift of Eternal Life. You too may have eternal life with Christ in Heaven if you desire with all your heart to trust Him and "hear all things commanded you by God."
Heavenly Father in Yo alone we live, in you alone we receive blessings, let us be thankful for all You do. May every moment we continue in this life be a living example of your grace. Amen
