Prayer based on Acts 11:3. Themes: Inclusion, Acceptance, Redemption.

Dear Lord, I pray that you help me to be bold in my faith and not be afraid to associate with those who may be different from me. May I never be accused of being exclusive or judgmental, but instead, may I show love and acceptance to all people, just as you did. Help me to break down barriers and build bridges between people, regardless of their background or beliefs. May my actions and words always reflect your love and grace. In Jesus’ name, I pray. Amen.

Verse: saying, “You went in to uncircumcised men and ate with them!”
Acts 11:3

This is a Command. The verse is a rebuke to Peter for eating with uncircumcised men, and serves as a warning to readers to avoid associating with those who do not follow Jewish customs.
