Scripture Union Daily Guide 12th June 2025 Outline
After Peter’s miraculous escape, he makes his way to the house of Mary where the believers had gathered to pray. Just as the early Church gathered in unity, we should seek the support and intercession of our Christian community. A bunch of broom sweeps clean. Through unwavering prayer, the early church witnessed God’s remarkable intervention as they faced challenges and opposition.
Notice the reaction of the praying group to God’s miraculous answer to their fervent ‘all-night’ prayers (Acts 12:15-17). When we pray for God’s intervention especially in a seemingly impossible situation, do we exercise doubt or wholeheartedly believe that God will answer (James 1:4-6)? Thank God that despite our doubts, God will not diminish the tangible evidence of His power to answer our persistent prayers just because of His love and mercy.
From Acts 12:18-23 we see that God is the ultimate authority and judge. He humbles the proud and brings justice to those who exalt themselves. As believers, we are called to recognize and honour God’s sovereignty in all things, giving Him the praise and glory He deserves.
While the enemies were destroying themselves, the poor soldiers executed, and wicked Herod himself struck dead by an angel of God (Acts 12:21-23), “the word of God continued to increase and spread” (Acts 12:24). Earthly tyrants will come and go, but their cruelty, hatred and persecution will remain powerless to arrest the onward progress of the cause of Christ and His church. Our God has the final say.
* Any new insight or reinforcement of what you already know?
Closing Prayer:
Lord, as the church continues to face all manner of opposition and persecutions, unite us in persistent prayer that your word may continue to increase and spread.
