When God's People Pray

Search And Select the Passage:

Acts12:5

Watch the Context:
Paul was imprisoned in the maximum security detention center by the order of Herod. Herod was pleased to see that the Jew are happy with his policies against the Christian. Peter was decided to be executed, just like James. The punishment will be done after the day of Passover. But the Church was continually praying for Peter.


Observe The Word:

Earnestly Praying - Fervent, Earnest, Constant (different translation) but the total meaning is the same.


Reflect The Message:

When we are in crisis, how much time do the church really pray? Often time we are driven to immediately find a solution in our own way. We must think fast, rather than pray earnestly. The Early Church focus their supplication through prayer, they do not let other thing interfere. Prayer is indeed the heart of the people.


Develop the New Walk With God:

I have to spend more time in prayer, or be consistent with the prayer life that i have right now.
