    At times, some devoted people are cut off before their time, but if God's children can pray and be discerning, untimely deaths could be avoided.

    From the Genesis 4 story, we see that: • Waste could come from jealousy and anger (Gen. 4:5). • Jealousy could develop into enmity. • Enmity could arise from within, as Cain and Abel were brothers. • Enmity could arise from without, as Peter and King Herod were not related - Acts 12:1-19 o Pray ...read more

    One of the most amazing privileges of believers is access to God through prayer. We all face trials and tribulations but praying will help us overcome. Why? Because a praying saint can lay down in trouble and wake up to a miracle. Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning.

    In Acts 12. we see the power that's at our disposal if we will seek God in intercessory prayer. Peter was going to be executed the next morning, but because Christians prayed, God sent an angel. He'll do it today if we pray! This message will preach!
