POWER FOR VICTORY

February 28, 2024 • Dr Zubeda Sing, Pastor Zubeda Sing

In Caesarea there lived a Roman army officer named Cornelius, who was a captain of the Italian Regiment. He was a devout, God-fearing man, as was everyone in his household. He gave generously to the poor and prayed regularly to God. One afternoon about three o’clock, he had a vision in which he saw an angel of God coming toward him. “Cornelius!” the angel said. Acts 10v1

 

Cornelius was a Roman army officer, a man who was not in covenant with God. However, he had a heart which was God fearing. It was not his works that got him saved, no, The Lord got Peter to go to his home to minister the gospel to him and his family. He was then saved and empowered for victory.

Cornelius was a God fearing man who had the power of influence over his own household and those who were under his command. Even though he had not been saved, he was devout man, however this was not enough for him to enter the kingdom of God. He needed the gospel preached to him, he needed to accept Jesus Christ as his personal saviour and then he entered into the life of Salvation. In the case of Cornelius not only he was saved but his whole household.

 

Take note, once the power of God came into his life, he began to speak in tongues, him and his whole household. Peter was amazed that this man who was without a covenant with God, could be filled with the holy Spirit. Cornelius needed this power over and above the good works he was doing to be empowered for victory and good success. We too need this power of God to have victory and good success in our lives. I see you walking in victory and good success.

 

CONFESSION/PRAYER

I am empowered with the power of the holy spirit to live this good life God has called me to.

I am empowered for victory and good success. Success is my portion now.
