Devotion
When we had asked the Lord for forgiveness dof our offences, there was absolutely no record of those failures in heaven. What a good news! For years I had been deceived by the enemy, I had dishonoured God by thinking that my past sins were too much for Jesus to bear, I thought my sins were bigger than Him. He would not want to use a failure like me.
I was deceived and proud. That was how the enemy had held me in bondage for years. But praise God! He restored me.
God shows no partiality, He does not show favoritism. He is not a respector of person. He uses anyone who respond to Him and is willing and has available himself to Him. He accepts those who fear Him and follow His way, regardless of our histories or what kind of people we used to be. It is not the past but the present that determines who we are and who we are becoming. We are in Christ and Christ is in us.
Then Peter opened his mouth and said: "In truth I perceive that God shows no partiality. But in every nation whoever fears Him and works righteousness is accepted by Him. Ac 10:34-35 NKJV
Then Peter replied, "I see very clearly that God shows no favoritism. In every nation he accepts those who fear him and do what is right.
Acts of the Apostles 10:34-35
