I have been saturating lately in the New Testament Book of Acts, also known as The Acts of the Apostles. What amazing things happened in those early days of the church. Reading these chapters makes me want to see such mighty acts continue in my lifetime.
Here are a few fascinating verses from Acts 5:
“And more and more believers were added to the Lord, crowds both of men and women. Sick people were brought out into the streets on beds and mats so that at least Peter’s shadow would fall across some of them as he went by. And the crowds came in from the Jerusalem suburbs, bringing their sick folk and those possessed by demons; and everyone of them was healed.” Acts 5:14-16, Living Gospels
And these words also move me so deeply:
“The (religious) council... called in the apostles, had them beaten up, and told them never again to speak in the name of Jesus, and finally let them go. They left the council chambers rejoicing that God had counted them worthy to suffer dishonor for His name. And, every day, in the Temple and in the city they continued to teach and preach that Jesus is Messiah.” Acts 5:40-42, Living Gospels
So i pray fervently by faith... Amazing, Lord, are Your Almighty acts. Once again please show — to us and through us —Your Divine Power to save lost souls and to heal broken lives, according to Your Greatness and Holiness. In the Name of Jesus Messiah, i pray. Amen.
HERE! Presence Matters Most!
No Invisible People! UNITY!
