8(For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the Gentiles:)

Galatians 2:8

Biblical Context

Galatians 2:8 asserts that the same God-power that worked in Peter for the circumcision is at work in me toward the Gentiles. It points to a single inner source of empowerment animating both ministries, now available to your vocation.

Neville's Inner Vision

Within you, the verse speaks not of two men in history, but of two facets of your own consciousness. 'Peter' is the disciplined mind that serves a purpose within the old order; 'the Gentiles' are the broader call that reaches beyond limitation. The same mighty Power that wrought effectively in Peter toward the circumcision is the very Power flowing through you toward your Gentile-call. God's work is not outside you; it is the action of your I AM, your awareness, becoming aware of itself as vocation. Providence and Grace appear as inner alignment: when you assume this power, you are no longer pleading for favor, you are recognizing you already are the favored one, guided in every step. The key is to dwell in the feeling of being used for the right ministry, seeing your daily tasks as outward signs of this inner impulse. Your job, your outreach, your family, your community—each is touched by the same life moving through you. Trust the inner move; let your imagination confirm your mission is alive and well, now.

Practice This Now

Assume right now that the same power moving Peter moves through you; revise any sense of lack. Feel it real by dwelling in the sensation of a vocation already unfolding.
