God is faithful
Alrina: ABS Week 6
Acts 12
When the angel of God appeared to rescue Peter, the angel asks him to gird himself or put on his cloak. It probably must have been cold at night and Peter must have forgotten about it in the excitement of being rescued. God didn’t forget. He not only rescues us in the big scary moments. He still watches over our little needs.
He is our Father and he carries us in his arms like little children.
In addition, Peter was in prison for a long time but God didn’t rescue him till the very night he was supposed to be brought out before the people. Peter didn’t lose hope and neither did people. They had faith in God and prayed relentlessly.
God might not answer our prayers the minute we ask for it, but he is faithful and will answer when it’s time. He might have tested the people. But they didn’t lose hope.
