Acts 4 /When  Peter and John were arrested for preaching about Jesus after the crippled man was healed,  they were asked, "By what power or in what name did you do this?"

Peter is once again filled with the Holy Spirit and lets them know that it is in the Name of Jesus - the same one that they had executed and who had risen again - that this miracle had been accomplished.

Peter proclaims boldly, "There is salvation in no one else! For there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by whom we must be saved!"  

There is no other Name...
No other Savior..
No other Healer.
No other Cornerstone.
No other Messiah.
No other Hope.

Peter and John were released and went home rejoicing! They prayed for boldness to proclaim this message.  The church grew.  The people were united.  And, "...abundant grace was upon them all.." 

Father, we pray for this boldness and grace... to proclaim the salvation that only Jesus can provide.
Fill Your church again, Holy Spirit!  "Stretch out your hand to heal and to do signs and miracles through the name of Your Servant,  Jesus." May there be a great harvest of souls for the Kingdom of God, we pray, in the Name of the only One who saves,  Jesus Christ, Amen.
