BE YOUR RESPONSE
“Peter was therefore kept in prison, but constant prayer was offered to God for him by the church.”
Acts 12:5 (NKJV)
Don’t give anyone room to underestimate the effectual workings of prayer.
— Herod decided to harass the Church, so he killed James, the brother of John.
— He saw the people were pleased, so he arrested Peter, and purposed to kill him after Passover.
— Nevertheless, the Church responded to this situation differently.
We didn’t see the response of the Church when James was arrested. It was likely they reacted in fear and only went to hide.
But when Peter was arrested, the Church responded with earnest, constant PRAYERS.
The earnest prayers of the brethren dispatched an angel to release Peter from prison. Considering the soldiers assigned to guard Peter in the prison and even outside the prison, it will only take a supernatural hand to deliver him.
No matter the challenge, get into prayer.
In the place of prayer:
— You will receive strength.
— Your faith will be strengthened.
— You will receive direction as to what to do.
— You will see visions
— The great help and answers of God will be released.
Paul said to the Philippians:
Don’t cry, don’t be anxious, don’t worry, don’t fret, ONLY PRAY!
Pray until you see the victory, not until you feel tired.
GET INTO PRAYER!
That by the mighty hand of the Lord we shall see great victory in all situations, no matter the pressure and opposition.
Psalm 43-45
2 YEARS PLAN
Deuteronomy 20

Now about that time Herod the king stretched out his hand to harass some from the church. Then he killed James the brother of John with the sword. And because he saw that it pleased the Jews, he proceeded further to seize Peter also. Now it was during the Days of Unleavened Bread. So when he had arrested him, he put him in prison, and delivered him to four squads of soldiers to keep him, intending to bring him before the people after Passover. Peter was therefore kept in prison, but constant prayer was offered to God for him by the church. And when Herod was about to bring him out, that night Peter was sleeping, bound with two chains between two soldiers; and the guards before the door were [keeping the prison. Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, “Arise quickly!” And his chains fell off his hands. Then the angel said to him, “Gird yourself and tie on your sandals”; and so he did. And he said to him, “Put on your garment and follow me.” So he went out and followed him, and did not know that what was done by the angel was real, but thought he was seeing a vision. When they were past the first and the second guard posts, they came to the iron gate that leads to the city, which opened to them of its own accord; and they went out and went down one street, and immediately the angel departed from him. And when Peter had come to himself, he said, “Now I know for certain that the Lord has sent His angel, and has delivered me from the hand of Herod and from all the expectation of the Jewish people.” Acts 12:1-11 (NKJV)
I pray

How this episode has humbled me not to grow tired of praying until victory.
Hmmm
Thank you lord Jesus for MACHAIRA WITH APOSTLE BENNIE
I get into prayer.
My first and constant response to anything.
I Pray Alway…..
Prayer has always been and will always be a way out.
Given its impact and the blessings we receive, the importance of prayer cannot be overstated or neglected.
I don’t grow weary in prayer.
Prayer oooooo Prayer !
Pray earnestly until you have really prayed. Pray until you are fully convinced in your spirit that it is settled.
There’s a need to be consistent and intense in prayer.
I’m intense and consistent in prayer
Pray until you see the victory, not until you feel tired
I am persistent in prayer
