Effectual fervent prayer is powerful.
Peter was in prison chained between 2 guards to be executed at dawn. Meanwhile, not far away, there was a prayer meeting going on. God received the sweet fragrance of those prayers and sent an angel to free Peter.
Prayer is powerful.
'fired up... yet aiming in the wrong direction... it’s ‘good to be zealous’(Gal 4:18), but with the important caveat ‘in a good cause’(Gal 4:18)… the ultimate source behind all good causes, God... be ‘fervent in spirit; serving the Lord’(Rom 12:11).' (from threaded link below).
Some distilled essence from that verse, for anyone interested in some concise yet in depth reflections on it, to ponder 🤔🙏 …

18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on Earth shall be bound in Heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on Earth shall be loosed in Heaven.
19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in Heaven.
20 For where two or three are gathered together in My Name, there Am I in the midst of them.
Matthew 18
In Jesus Name ❤️🔥
What a day that will be
when my Jesus I shall see!
And I look upon His face
the One Who saved me by His grace!
When He takes me by the hand and leads me thru the promised land
What a glorious day that will be!
And forever I will be with the
One Who died for me!
(And for you too)
