This is our ninth and final week of our series in Acts called “Unstoppable” based on Acts 5:42 which says, “Day after day, in the temple courts and from house to house, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Messiah.” Like a powerful waterfall, the book of Acts is the story of the unstoppable movement of Jesus. It is the story of the birth, life, and ministry of his Church that we are part of today as a people of God, filled with the Spirit of God, to fulfill the mission of God, by sharing Jesus with others. Through this series we will be following the story of birth the Church and how it followed in the footsteps of Jesus’ Spirit-led life and ministry. Like Jesus, his body the Church is Spirit-born, Spirit-filled, to be a Spirit-empowered people, sent to continue in the mission and ministry of Jesus. As this story continues in Acts 12 we see the church return to one of its foundational practices of prayer. With arms outstretched the church prays earnestly for God to step in and provide deliverance.
