When the early church faced opposition, they did not retreat or retaliate—they prayed. In Acts 4, we see a church anchored in God’s sovereignty, united in purpose, and bold in witness. Rather than asking for safety, they ask for courage, trusting that the same God who reigns over rulers empowers His people to speak with boldness. This passage reminds us that prayer is not our last resort, but our first response—and that God delights to strengthen His Church for faithful witness.
