Acts 4, 5 [NIV Dramatized Audio]

Peter and the disciples performed a notable miracle when the lame man in the Temple was healed. It created quite a stir in Jerusalem and a platform for the disciples to preach about Christ. They were brought in and challenged by the High Priest and the leaders NOT to preach about the name of Jesus. The disciples rather continued ministering in the Name of Jesus and thousands were added to the church. Their stance could only be described as BOLD!

There is growing persecution for the name of Jesus in our culture. Continual prayer and fellowship with Christ and His Word will maintain a boldness within us needed to overcome the diabolic resistance coming.

For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. [Rom. 1:16]
