Acts 5:29 New International Version (NIV)
29 Peter and the other apostles replied: “We must obey
God rather than human beings!
Against a stern warning from the ruling council in
Jerusalem, called the Sanhedrin, Peter and the other apostles proclaimed Jesus
as Lord. They knew that Jesus had triumphed over the attempts of his enemies to
extinguish him and his ministry. The apostles blatantly disobeyed the orders of
the very same people who had Jesus crucified. By any standard, that is faithful
courage. How are you doing in the "standing up for Jesus" battle?
Thought for today: Am
I willing to stand firm on what I know to be right?
