Acts 10:4 (KJV)

And when He looked on him, He was afraid, and said, what is it, Lord? And He said unto him, thy prayers and thine alms are come up for a memorial before God.

There’s an unquenchable combination of spiritual realities that catch God's attention in a dramatic fashion. Cornelius’ prayer and giving effectively blocked God's panoramic view of planet Earth. God didn't visit him in a dream as he did with Solomon, but instead immediately dispatched an angel to announce his impact in the heavens. Giving backed up with effectual prayer becomes an irresistible force that changes destinies and generations. God clearly states in His word that He's unwilling to do without a prompt to give giver. A giver has a front-row seat in God’s assembly!

One man's prayer and giving made him the first successful candidate through whom salvation came to the Gentiles. When you’re a prayerful giver, you’re kept under God’s radar permanently. I’m surprised at Christians whose sole intent in bringing about a generational change is through the vehicle of prayer yet neglect or pay little attention to giving! From our scripture for today, prayer and giving must be simultaneously engaged to experience the full measure of Milk and Honey this year.

PROPHETIC DECLARATION

I am relentless in prayer, and my giving in this year of Milk and Honey will shock me and move Heaven without fail to God's glory in Jesus' Name. Amen.
