Digest

Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.

  1. What does this passage show me about God?

    • What is God doing with Cornelius and with Peter at the same time?
  2. What does it show me about people — and about myself?

    • Who have you quietly written off as too far from God to be ready?
  3. What will I obey this week? (a concrete step, with a day)

    • What line — culture, class, or comfort — will you cross this week, trusting that God has gone ahead of you?
  4. Who will I tell?

    • Whose house, like Cornelius', might already be gathered and waiting — and how will you find out?

Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).

Pray

Lord, you were speaking to Cornelius before Peter ever arrived. Thank you that you prepare hearts before you send me; help me go without calling anyone unclean.
