Life's authority is belong to the Lord!

Acts 12:1-12
King Herod arrested some who belonged to the church, intending to persecute them. James, the brother of John was put to death with the sword.
Herod seize Peter also, he put him in prison, handing him over to be guarded by sour squads of four soldiers each.
But the church was earnestly praying to God for him.
The Lord sent his angel and rescued Peter from the Herod's clutches爪 and from everything the Jewish people were anticipating.
When Paul and Barnabas are in Jerusalem, handing over Antioch's donation for the famine relief. King Herod instigates a new wave of persecution.
A maximum security prison presents no problems to God! And there is more for Peter to do.
Four squads of soldiers: One squad of four soldiers for each watch of the night, two with Peter, two at the door.
Why?
Persecution was came, some were dead, some were rescued by the Lord.
It is the authority of the Lord, who chose his servants for specific mission. Peter has mission continue.
Peter's escape from prison is a miracle, for God's help. Who can oppose God!
What we can do and important thing is earnestly praying to God!
How?
Life's authority is belong to the Lord! Blessing is the one who fear the Lord!
