Spirit and Life Devotional is a daily publication by Pastor Chinaemerem Ibezim, senior pastor of Able Ministers Chapel, a church based in Calabar, Cross River State.
“Suddenly, there was a bright light in the cell, and an angel of the Lord stood before Peter. The angel struck him on the side to awaken him and said, ‘Quick! Get up!’ And the chains fell off his wrists.” – Acts of the Apostles 12:7 NLT
Peter was in prison, sleeping. Isn’t that cool? You know you’re on death row, but you don’t let it bother you at all.
Peter was not expecting any form of deliverance. James had been killed, so Peter must have accepted his fate. He had prepared himself for death.
But the church was praying! And because the church prayed, God intervened. An angel was sent to Peter: just a word from the angel and the chains fell off! Such power!
Now, if the word of an angel was that powerful, you can imagine what the word of God Himself can do. Today, let every chain in your life fall off, in Jesus name! Amen!
