"Keep watch over yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers. Be shepherds of the church of God, which he bought with his own blood."
Acts 20:28
weekly message
“So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him.” (Acts 12:5)
Peter is an example of how God brings us peace and His presence during difficult times, along with how God does miraculous things, even when we don’t expect it. Peter was arrested and put in jail because of his preaching and teaching about Jesus. God helped Peter, as he was chained to a couple of prison guards, to trust Him with what would happen next. How do we know that Peter was trusting God? He fell asleep while in jail! And as the people prayed for Peter, God miraculously released Peter from jail – prayer does change things! The people praying were shocked that their prayer was answered this way. Sometimes we can be surprised how God will answer our prayers, but we know He hears us. Be encouraged to pray often and with confidence that God will answer!
