Acts 12 : 1-8
KJV
1 Now about that time Herod the king
stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church.
2 And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.
3 And because he saw it pleased the Jews,
he proceeded further to take Peter also.
(Then were the days of unleavened bread.)
4 And when he had apprehended him,
he put him in prison,
and delivered him to four quaternions of soldiers to keep him;
intending after Easter to bring him forth to the people.
5 Peter therefore was kept in prison:
but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.
6 And when Herod would have brought him forth,
the same night Peter was sleeping between two soldiers,
bound with two chains:
and the keepers before the door kept the prison.
7 And, behold, the angel of the Lord came upon him,
and a light shined in the prison: and he smote Peter on the side,
and raised him up, saying,
Arise up quickly. And his chains fell off from his hands.
8 And the angel said unto him, Gird thyself,
and bind on thy sandals.
And so he did. And he saith unto him,
Cast thy garment about thee, and follow me.
Today's Prayer...
Lord our God,
Open our ears and our hearts
so that we hear you speaking and can follow the voice
that cries out to us.
May we be a people who prepare the way for you.
Grant each of us strength to give up everything at the
right moment and to realize,
"The way to my heart should be leveled too.
It should be straight and level all around me and in the whole world."
The light is now shining for us in Jesus Christ,
and through him we want to find strength and help,
to the glory of your name.
Through hearing his voice we will find help.
Help will be very near to us, and the mighty hand of
the Lord Jesus will be over us in every need.
For this he came. We can believe in his help, and we long for it.
Hear the inmost longing of each one of us,
and make us part of your people so that we may keep hope
in our hearts and serve you on earth.
Praise to your name, O Father in heaven,
that you have put us on earth and that we can
draw strength from the One who fights and is victorious,
Jesus Christ.
In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name
Amen
