"So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to God for him." Acts 12
What can happen in one day with God?
What can happen when the church earnestly prays?
Can you and I be prayed out of Prison?
YES and AMEN.
Jesus prayed and obeyed.
And DEATH, SIN and the DEVIL were defeated.
Hebrews 5:7-9
"During the days of Jesus’ life on earth, he offered up prayers and petitions with fervent cries and tears to the one who could save him from death, and he was heard because of his reverent submission. 8 Son though he was, he learned obedience from what he suffered 9 and, once made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation for all who obey him."
Suddenly.....
IMAGINE
An Angel of the Lord appeared! 
"and the chains fell off Peter's wrists."
Harod's plans = NOT God's plans for Peter
Saints. The chains fell off!
Earnest Prayer - United Prevailing Prayer Changes Everything.
United - John 17:3 This is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you sent."
Prevailing - "No weapon formed against you will prevail, and you will refute every tongue that accuses you. This is the heritage of the Servants of the LORD, and this is their vindication from me, declares the LORD." Isaiah 54:17
2 Chronicles 14:11 " Then Asa called to the Lord his God and said, 'Lord, there is no one like you to help the powerless against the mighty. Help us, Lord our God, for we rely on you, and in your name we have come against this vast army, Lord, You are our God; do not let mere mortals prevail against you."
That is a covenant Prayer of a King who knows who he is and who his God is.
Prayer - "And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord's people. Pray also for me, that whenever I speak, words may be given me so that I will fearlessly make known the mystery of the Gospel...." Ephesians 6:18-19
Paul and Silas Worshiped and Prayed their way out of Prison!
"About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them." Acts 16:25Suddenly.....
"There was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison was shaken."
"At once all the prison doors flew open, and everyone's chains come loose."

Are these miracles in time and space witnesses to the reality of the WAY, TRUTH and LIFE in Jesus Christ?
In each case.....
Prayer
Worship
TRUST in God
and the Wonders of our Savior
Are prayed in faith.
Prayer.....
Busted Prisoners free
Dropped off chaines
Opened prison doors
What are we praying for?
What can our God and King do in one day?
What breakthrough for you, your church, your family, is
ONE PRAYER of FAITH AWAY?
There is such a vast an open country of PRAYER and WORSHIP in Jesus Christ our KING.
Go after some of it today.
Hang in there.
Often we start making predictions based on past failures when trouble lands. We start predicting a negative future out of some of our bad memories.
The awesome thing is God is not tied up by our predictions.
He is creative. In love with us. And he is good all the way.
Everything in his heart is to see us live forever with him.
He has provided everything needed in the Lord Jesus and his perfect work.
I have always been a bad predictor of the future....even when I think it turns out bad.
God always sweeps in and something unseen re-writes the story.
That is the heart of God over us.
He re-writes it so we see him, grow deeper in love and learn to walk with him.
In turn he changes us inside forever!
This is all worth it.
Even the days when you are hanging on by the tips of your fingers and you see a 1000 feet of air beneth you. He will catch you.
Or He will sweep in and bring something unexpected.
Believe. Believe. Believer.
Trust in the NAME of Jesus.
