TOPIC : YOU CAN NEVER FAIL
TEXT :Acts 5:33-35
When they heard that, they were cut to the heart, and took counsel to slay them.
Then stood there up one in the council, a Pharisee, named Gamaliel, a doctor of the law, had in reputation among all the people, and commanded to put the apostles forth a little space;
And said unto them, Ye men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what ye intend to do as touching these men.
Dearly beloved, these disciples were getting massive results and shaking their world by the miracles that has been wrought through their hands.
When the religious leaders of the day heard of the exploits, they arrested them with the intention to kill them.
While the devil was yet rejoicing about his seemingly successful brigandage over the disciples, the ancient of days gave him an upper cut.
An angel, stormed the prison and released the disciples and them and led them to the temple to continue speaking to the people about the name of Jesus.
Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.
There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.
Then the high priest rose up, and all they that were with him, (which is the sect of the Sadducees,) and were filled with indignation,
And laid their hands on the apostles, and put them in the common prison.
But the angel of the Lord by night opened the prison doors, and brought them forth, and said,(Acts 5:15-19)
They were arrested again and brought before the Sanhedrin, the highest decision making body of the time.
The Holy Spirit used Gamaliel, a highly respected member of the Sanhedrin to release them.
Beloved, you cannot be trapped and you cannot fail.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible.
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them devotionals)
