"Your Holy Servant Jesus"

 

Prayer for Boldness   Acts 4

 And being let go, they went to their own companions and reported all that the chief priests and elders had said to them. 

 ²⁴ So when they heard that, they raised their voice to God with one accord and said: “Lord, You are God, who made heaven and earth and the sea, and all that is in them, ²⁵ who by the mouth of Your servant David have said:

 

‘Why did the nations rage,
And the people plot vain things?
²⁶ The kings of the earth took their stand,
And the rulers were gathered together
Against the Lord and against His Christ.’

 

 

²⁷ “For truly against Your holy Servant Jesus, whom You anointed, both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, were gathered together 

 

 ²⁸ to do whatever Your hand and Your purpose determined before to be done. 

 

 ²⁹ Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants that with all boldness they may speak Your word, 

 

 ³⁰ by stretching out Your hand to heal, and that signs and wonders may be done through the name of Your holy Servant Jesus.”

³¹ And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness.
