RegretFULLY
Beloved of All
=DevOtiON= ("Devotion Don") ... What we read next changes everything. “So Peter was kept in prison, but EARNEST prayer for him was made to God by the CHURCH” (Acts 12:5). That one little word—“but”—transforms the whole picture. It says, “The enemy is on this scene, roaring like a lion, but the Lion of Judah is also on the move. He’s about to reveal Himself and change everything.”
I love the image of “earnest prayer” in this verse. A small band of humble men and women were holding a prayer meeting. Like many Christians, they probably had little influence in their world, yet the thickest prison walls didn’t stand a chance against their prayers.
