“They were ordinary men who had been with Jesus.” Did you catch that phrase in Acts 4: 13? It was an act of kindness that caught the attention of their accusers, but Peter didn’t let their critical and judgmental attitude stop him from boldly speaking the truth. In fact, he didn’t let their threats or their position intimidate him at all. His focus was entirely on doing and saying only the things that God put in his heart and in his mind. I’m thinking there is a lesson in this for me and maybe for you, too. “Enable Your servants, Lord, to speak Your word with great boldness!” (Acts 4: 29) Are you interested in praying this prayer with and for me?
