An Italian soldier named Cornelius who had a lifestyle of fasting, prayer, and almsgiving was the FIRST EUROPEAN to receive the gospel of the Kingdom!
An angel brokethrough just to speak to him and tell him that his prayers and alms came up as a memorial – a materialized reminder of who Cornelius was – before God.
Then Jesus Himself brokethrough to Peter to breakthrough the Judean cultural barriers – just to get the gospel to Cornelius.
BREAKTHROUGH happens when we seek the Kingdom in Prayer, Fasting, and Almsgiving!
Acts 10:30 And Cornelius said, Four days ago I was FASTING until this hour; and at the ninth hour I prayed in my house, and, behold, a man stood before me in bright clothing,
31 And said, Cornelius, thy PRAYER is heard, and thine ALMS are had in remembrance in the sight of God.
– BREAKTHROUGH is coming!
– Keep praying, keep giving, keep fasting!
– It’s a lifestyle!
– It’s also a privilege to serve Him with gladness!
