As we embark on our third year on the field, we have some specific pryers Father has heavily laid on our hearts to keep in the forefront of our souls when we embrace the battlefield.
Boldness and Undeniable Faith:
In Acts chapter 4, Peter and John perform an amazing miracle and pronounce that they did it in the powerful name of J. They were preaching, teaching, and testifying that salvation comes from no other name than J. They were arrested and put in jail for the night and met with the council the next day. The council members asked Peter and John to tell them what power or whose name have they performed this miracle. Peter was filled with the HS, the same we all have, and said that the man was healed by the powerful name of J, the one who was crucified and raised from the dead by Father as a fulfillment of scriptural prophesy.
It says that the members “were amazed when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, for they could see that they were ordinary men with no special training in the Scriptures. They also recognized them as men who had been with J.”
{As we can identify with Peter and John in being ordinary men with no special training, we cry out for boldness in our testifying, and guidance given by the HS.}
The council members decide to let the two of them go as long as they stop speaking and teaching in the name of J. Peter and John simply told the council, “We cannot stop telling about everything we have seen and heard.”
PR Request:
- We pry for perseverance and undeniable faith so that we commit, just like Peter and John, to never stop sharing with the world what we have seen and heard. We have tasted the goodness of His grace and it is our responsibility to share what we have learned with others.}
