We explore how Peter and Cornelius demonstrated their expectation of God's movement through obedience and preparation, revealing the paradox of divine providence and human responsibility.
• God's plan for salvation has been for all peoples from before the foundation of the world
• Peter obeys the Spirit despite being perplexed about his vision and not understanding the full plan
• Cornelius prepares for Peter's arrival by gathering his family and friends, expecting God to move
• God works sovereignly to accomplish His purposes while still requiring our obedient response
• True faith means taking the next step even when we don't have all the answers
• Christians are called to be witnesses starting with what we know God has commanded
• Approaching church with expectancy rather than routine transforms our experience of worship
• The paradox of working out our salvation while God works in us (Philippians 2:12-13)
If you've never trusted Christ as your Savior or if God is calling you to take a next step in faith, we invite you to respond today. God's plan of salvation is for you, regardless of your background.
