God Sends His Presence and Displays His Power

The angel in Peter’s prison cell was more than a messenger — he was a reminder that Peter was never alone. God’s presence enters even the darkest places. We may not always see an angelic light, but His Spirit is with us, comforting, guiding, and empowering us to keep moving forward. Psalm 34:7 says, “The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and rescues them.”
 
God’s presence also brings His power. Chains fall, doors open, and hearts change when God moves. Yet notice — Peter still had to obey: he got up, got dressed, and followed. God’s miracles often involve our cooperation. We do the ordinary; God does the extraordinary. His power is not hindered by our weakness — it’s revealed through it.
 
Scripture:
Ephesians 3:20 - Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, 
 
Application:
Acknowledge God’s presence in a difficult situation this week. Take one obedient step forward in faith, even if you don’t see the whole plan.
  
Prayer:
God, thank You that I am never alone. Remind me of Your presence when I feel afraid. Work through my obedience to display Your power in my life. Let others see Your strength through my trust in You.
