DAILY SHOWER September 16, 2022 Devotion and Declarations
Prayer before the Word:
_ O God, my King, my Your name be highly glorified for the gift of life. Forgive my trespasses. Please, show me Your way, and assist me to follow it to the end in Jesus name, Amen_
TODAY’S TOPIC: Get up
Text: Acts 10: 9-16 (NIV):
"10:9. About noon the following day as they were on their journey and approaching the city, Peter went up on the roof to pray.
10:10. He became hungry and wanted something to eat, and while the meal was being prepared, he fell into a trance.
10:11. He saw heaven opened and something like a large sheet being let down to earth by its four corners.
10:12. It contained all kinds of four-footed animals, as well as reptiles of the earth and birds of the air.
10:13. Then a voice told him, "Get up, Peter. Kill and eat."
10:14. "Surely not, Lord!" Peter replied. "I have never eaten anything impure or unclean."
10:15. The voice spoke to him a second time, "Do not call anything impure that God has made clean."
10:16. This happened three times, and immediately the sheet was taken back to heaven."
SHOWER (Reflection):
We are often confronted by different challenges. God may be using one to call us to action. It only requires our discerning ability to discover what God actually desires of us. And what God wants us to do. This could be revealed to us through dreams or visions. How do we honour those revelations? Another thing we ought to learn from today's message is to stop discriminating against the living. God told Peter to get up and eat but he started telling God that he won't eat impure food. Are you know by this kind character?
