Commentary from Pastor Michael White:
Peter was therefore kept in prison, but constant prayer was offered to God for him by the church. – Acts 12:5

Peter was in prison. James had just been killed for his faith (v 2), and Peter was next in line. But then something happened: the church started to pray. When people prayed, everything changed!

Now behold, an angel of the Lord stood by him, and a light shone in the prison; and he struck Peter on the side and raised him up, saying, “Arise quickly!” And his chains fell off his hands. – Acts 12:7

Prayer opens prisons. Prayer changes hearts! Prayer can save a city, a nation, and this world. Are you ready to pray?

Prayer:

Father, I want to PRAY! I know there is power in my prayers. Remind me to offer constant prayer for the things that move Your heart, in Jesus’ name.
