Eavesdropping on a Powerful Prayer
Acts 4:23-31
Skip Heitzig
| Acts 4 (NKJV™) | |
| 23 | And being let go, they went to their own companions and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them. |
| 24 | So when they heard that, they raised their voice to God with one accord and said: "Lord, You are God, who made heaven and earth and the sea, and all that is in them, |
| 25 | "who by the mouth of Your servant David have said: 'Why did the nations rage, And the people plot vain things? |
| 26 | The kings of the earth took their stand, And the rulers were gathered together Against the LORD and against His Christ.' |
| 27 | "For truly against Your holy Servant Jesus, whom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together |
| 28 | "to do whatever Your hand and Your purpose determined before to be done. |
| 29 | "Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, |
| 30 | "by stretching out Your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus." |
| 31 | And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness. |
