Acts 10:36 The word which [God] sent unto the children of Israel, preaching peace by Jesus Christ: (he is Lord of all:)
The word Isra means “Prince” or “one with power/authority,” and El is used for God. Thus, Israel means “Prince of God” / “one having authority in the Lord”; in other words, it speaks of a Son of God.
Israel was a promise to Jacob, which was fulfilled in Jesus Christ. He was/is the first ‘Israel’. We who are in Christ receive this promise, and as we grow spiritually, we become more and more Israel.
The race that Paul speaks of us running, the goal post is to become Israel. I have mentioned before, even though just 2 reach the goal post, yet all those who ran the race till they sleep in Christ, are considered in the winning team (like a relay race). Thus, if a person does not witness Christ and keeps fighting their own battle with their inner-man is not considered in the team.
Let us understand that we all who are in Christ are Children of Israel, running the race to become Israel, and as children of Israel, we preach the message of peace of the Lord Jesus Christ.
[Prayer Starter]
Lord, You are Almighty God. You, Lord, alone are God and there is none like You. We pray Lord, we understand the purpose we are called to overcome by the power of faith and faith is perfected in authority. Lord, we pray we keep running this race until we sleep in You…
This prayer we make in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
