Scripture:
Acts 12:7 “Suddenly, there was a bright light in the cell, and an angel of the Lord stood before Peter. The angel struck him on the side to awaken him and said, ‘quick! Get up!’ And the chains fell off his wrists”.
Observation:
Peter had been imprisoned by King Herod Agrippa. The night before his trial, and angel of the Lord wakes up Peter and his chains fell off. The angel escorts him past several guards, locked doors etc. He literally thought he was dreaming all this until he was actually free.
Application:
I love to see God work signs, wonders and miracles. Only God can open prison doors, remove chains and walk you directly past prison guards without being noticed. I love it when God does something that can’t be explained by science, chance or anything else. Angels still exist today for the people of God. When Peter ended back up at the prayer meeting for this escape, they thought maybe he was an angel. Angels were commonplace and many believers encountered them. I want to see the supernatural return to the people of God. We need divine intervention in the affairs of life and we need the unsaved in the world to see it.
Prayer:
Lord, move again as You did in the book of Acts. Let us see the miracles of God as they did in that day. I ask You this day to allow us to grow in the supernatural. Teach us to work with You. Your ways are not our ways and Your thoughts are above our thoughts. Blow us away by Your awesomeness. Anyone that heard of the situation above cannot deny the reality of God. I want to see You work in ways that northern Virginia cannot explain except to say, there must be a God.
Your Son,
Jeff
