When God’s people are in need, be ready to help them. Always be eager to practice hospitality. ROMANS 12:13(NKJV)
Hospitality means “showing kindness to strangers.” This command shows up in various places in the New Testament because hospitality was a central mark of the early church. God is the original “lover of strangers.”
For while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8). While we were estranged from God, He sent his Son to the earth. And we who were once strangers and aliens on the earth have now been brought near to God by the blood of Jesus Christ
Be hospitable to one another without grumbling. 1 PETER 4:9(NKJV)
We are no longer strangers, no longer aliens, no longer orphans, no longer far away from God. We are now as near to God as His own Son is, for through the blood of Jesus we are brought into His family. Because He loved us when we were strangers, we are strangers no more.
Do not forget to entertain strangers, for by so doing some have unwittingly entertained angels. HEBREWS 13:2(NKJV)
That same thing happens today when we show hospitality to others. We are only doing for others what God did for us
Prayer of the Day: Father in the name of Jesus, give me the grace to purse hospitality and be a source of support and help for those in need that crosses my path
