Dear Jesse: Anything Can Happen! / by Eric Keener

In Acts 12, we have the great story of Peter's release from jail.  What's fun most of the time now is The Lord shows new things...Dude, how cool is that?

A few things applicable to the Movement of Jesus...

While our region currently has the "Umbrella of Heaven" over us and we are not receiving the attacks as other parts of the USA and Europe, know that what Peter went through is a picture of what can happen to us; in other words, we will be constrained because of our Faith.

The church, the gathering, the assembly, the ekklesia's prayer is made fervently...Gr - ektenos; earnestly, fervently, intensely (From a verb which means to "stretch out the hand"...to be stretched out, earnest, resolute, tense...Wow, how cool is that?)

We have to know what God is doing with us; there are no coincidences and God can/will make ANTHING HAPPEN!! 

We should allow the surprise and joy of "Rhoda" to flood throughout us all...like yesterday hearing Mike's testimony...FAR OUT!  That congregation was fully blessed, as were we!

Know that a marker of what God does through us will cause those in the public limelight (Authorities, media, known personalities, etc.) to become confused, angry and look to blame others...but, they will pay the price...look at the news today.

Bottom line?  V24;

But the Word of the Lord continued to grow and to be multiplied...

And you are seeing that happen!
