Fresh Bread 4/4

Daily Bread

Acts 4:31- And they having prayed the place was shaken in which they were assembled and they were all Holy Spirit filled and spoke the word of God with boldness.

Jesus told His disciples on the night before His death that “in that day you shall ask nothing of me” but that they would make their request to the Father in His name (John 16:23). This is an example of their obedience to the instructions of Jesus. When they were in need of divine assistance they prayed for power and divine, instead of just a specific need. The results of their prayers were that they were filled once again with the divine power to glorify the name of Jesus through signs and wonders. The immediate result that they experienced from the infilling of the Holy Spirit was the ability to speak the word with boldness. Paul asked the church to pray for him so that he too would speak the word with boldness (Ephesians 6:19-20).
