The Plan
"As soon as Peter and John were set free, they went to their friends and reported what the chief priests and elders had said to them.
"When they heard it, they raised their voices as one and called upon God, 'Sovereign Lord, maker of heaven and earth, of the sea and everything in them, you have put these words in the mouth of David, our father and your servant, through the Holy Spirit: Why did the pagan nations rage and the people conspire in folly? The kings of the earth were aligned and the princes gathered together against the Lord and against his Messiah.
"For indeed in this very city Herod with Pontius Pilate, and the pagans together with the people of Israel conspired against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed. Thus, indeed they brought about whatever your powerful will had decided from all time would happen. But now, Lord, see their threats against us and enable your servants to speak your word with all boldness. Stretch out your hand to heal and work signs and wonders through the Name of Jesus your holy servant.'
"When they had prayed, the place where they were gathered together shook, and they were all filled with Holy Spirit and began to speak the word of God boldly."
ACTS 4:23-31
"Lord, allow me not to get my way.
Let me always be at the center of Your perfect will."
