Devotional: Showing Partiality
Christian Women's Devotion on Accepting Others
My fellow believers, do
not practice your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus Christ with an attitude of partiality [toward people—show no
favoritism, no prejudice, no snobbery]. (v.1 AMP)
How often do we judge
people by how they are
packaged, so to
speak?
Whether someone is rich and has the
latest of
everything, or whether someone is
poor and
struggling to afford the basic
essentials, we
are all loved equally by our
Heavenly Father.
If we are all part of the Body
of Christ, no
matter what background we come
from, whether
rich or poor, socially acceptable
or social
outcasts, well-educated or little
education,
there is one thing we all have in
common, we have all been saved by the same
thing—God's Grace!
God does not look
at the outward. He is more
concerned with our
heart condition. There is
no room for snobbery
or prejudice in the kingdom
of God. Romans 2:11
says, "For God shows no
partiality [undue favour
or unfairness; with
Him one man is not
different from another]."
We all need to pray that
we will be able to see others through God's eyes—to see into their 'hearts' rather than focusing on the outward—and
to accept all people from all walks of life. God Loves. Full Stop!

A renewal in which there
is no [distinction between] Greek and Jew, circumcised and uncircumcised, [nor between nations whether] barbarian
or Scythian, [nor in status whether] slave or free, but Christ is all, and in all [so believers are equal in
Christ, without distinction]. - Colossians 3:11 (AMP)
Help us, Lord, to open
our eyes, To see others as you do And accept
each other in Jesus name, As together, we worship
you!
