Shaking up the Place with Prayer.Acts 4:24-35There was a conviction of God's mission and of God's concern.Their mission was to "speak God's Word." what they needed and what they prayed. They did not pray, did not need...• for evil men to be destroyed.• for the persecution to stop.• for God to allow them to stop witnessing until things quieted down.They prayed for boldness, for more courage to bear testimony, no matter the abuse and opposition. They asked to be fearless, for God to remove their fear. They asked for "all boldness."The church desperately needed its fear removed, and it wanted a strong courage to get about its business of witnessing.The church was asking God to concentrate and focus upon the persecution; to deal with it and to overrule the enemy; to give whatever was necessary to endure through it all.The church was saying that they were the slaves of the Lord, to do His will, to share and speak God's Word despite persecution.What we need are some people who can see the possibilities, and who desire to go all out for the Lord.If He has spoken to your heart, please don't shut Him down and turn Him away. Get in your altar and prayer closet get before the Lord and do what He wants you to do today. Could This Be this is the year when everything changes?
