*DAILY DEW 19TH/MAY/2021* *Is something missing?* (II) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And now, Lord, behold their threatenings: and grant unto thy servants, that with all boldness they may speak thy word, By stretching forth thine hand to heal; and that signs and wonders may be done by the name of thy holy child Jesus."* (Acts 4:29-30 (KJV)) _Bible Insight:_ At the gate of the temple called Beautiful, Peter and John were about to enter the Temple to pray when a lame man who sat at the gate begged for Arms. This led to the locus classicus case recorded in "Acts 3:6 (KJV)-Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk." The miracle that ensued actually caused a good trouble for Peter and John. "And as they spake unto the people, the priests, and the captain of the temple, and the Sadducees, came upon them, Being grieved that they taught the people, and preached through Jesus the resurrection from the dead. And they laid hands on them, and put them in hold unto the next day: for it was now eventide." Acts 4:1-3 (KJV) Meanwhile, those who heard their preaching had already believed; about five thousand men. This angered the Sadducees and other religious leaders. However because of the healing that happened on the lame, they could not do anything against them save to warn and threaten them to not preach Jesus anymore. Of course, Peter and John replied that they would rather obey God than men. Finally, after their released, they went to their brethren and held a powerful prayer meeting. The key request to God was that there would be more miracles, signs and wonders so that they can preach the word of God more boldly. This shows that notable miracles emboldens us to preach the Gospel more aggressively and without apology. If the Apostles asked for this, why shouldn't we? MEDITATION: *Saying, What shall we do to these men? for that indeed a notable miracle hath been done by them is manifest to all them that dwell in Jerusalem; and we cannot deny it.* Acts 4:16 (KJV) *#David_Joshua_Egbochuo* *#Wednesday_wisdomforliving* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#Wonders_of_Grace* *#Hello_May* ❤ *NEWS FLASH:* 🥳🥳 Links To Visit: *Podcast:* https://anchor.fm/daily-dew-devotional/episodes/TROUBLED-elli7h *FB Pages* https://www.facebook.com/DavidJoshuaEgbochuo/ https://www.facebook.com/thedavidgen/ https://www.facebook.com/THEREVIVALCORPS/ *DDDblog* http://dailydewdevotion.blogspot.com/2021/05/is-something-missing-ii.html *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
