The Church continued Praying
Acts 12:5 Peter therefore was kept in prison: but prayer was made without ceasing of the church unto God for him.
King Herod arrested Paul and placed him in the most secured prison ever, but it was recorded the church were fervently praying for him.
The story changes today, instead of the church to pray for members of the church arrested, or in afflictions, the church kept on making up unnecessary stories and complains
The church then, prayed all night through for breakthrough, but today the churches sleeps and slumber
In other scenario, for a member of the church to fall into sin, instead of encouraging and bringing the fellow back to Track, the church condemns the fellow, even many separated and isolate themselves from them.
For the Bible says there is every possibility that temptations will come, but today the church sees temptations as bus stop for salvation.
It is only whose sin is revealed that is called a sinner, others are regarded as righteous and Saint.
The church can do more than complaining of being persecuted, for the Lord had said it will happen
The church can do more than making up stories on the media
The church can do more in prayers and fasting for every afflicted
The church can do more in bringing the lost, the tempted, the sinner back to Track.
That is the commission God has given us.
The church start with you and I , and not the building.
You can do more than gossip,
You can do more than living a self righteous life.
Let's all be committed is saving the dying, persecuted and the tempted.
God bless you.
