Therefore came I unto you without gainsaying, as soon as I was sent for: I ask therefore for what intent ye have sent for me?
That's why I came here without hesitation the moment you called for me. So now I'm asking, what's going on? Why did you want me to come?
Sometimes God opens doors we didn't expect, and the best thing to do is show up and ask what's needed.
📚 Historical Context
In the book of Acts, Peter receives a vision from God that challenges Jewish dietary laws, teaching him that God's salvation is for all people, not just Jews. This vision prepares Peter to respond to the messengers sent by Cornelius, a devout Gentile centurion who had his own vision instructing him to summon Peter. When Peter arrives at Cornelius's house, he explains that he came immediately because he was sent for, and he inquires about the purpose of their invitation.
