God working miracles with Peter!

In those days, King Herod laid hands upon some members of the Church to harm them.

He had James, the brother of John, killed by the sword,
and when he saw that this was pleasing to the Jews
he proceeded to arrest Peter also.
–It was the feast of Unleavened Bread.–
He had him taken into custody and put in prison
under the guard of four squads of four soldiers each.
He intended to bring him before the people after Passover.
Peter thus was being kept in prison,
but prayer by the Church was fervently being made
to God on his behalf.
On the very night before Herod was to bring him to trial,
Peter, secured by double chains,
was sleeping between two soldiers,
while outside the door guards kept watch on the prison.
Suddenly the angel of the Lord stood by him
and a light shone in the cell.
He tapped Peter on the side and awakened him, saying,
“Get up quickly.”
The chains fell from his wrists.
The angel said to him, “Put on your belt and your sandals.”
He did so.
Then he said to him, “Put on your cloak and follow me.”
So he followed him out,
not realizing that what was happening through the angel was real;
he thought he was seeing a vision.
They passed the first guard, then the second,
and came to the iron gate leading out to the city,
which opened for them by itself.
They emerged and made their way down an alley,
and suddenly the angel left him.
Then Peter recovered his senses and said,
“Now I know for certain
that the Lord sent his angel
and rescued me from the hand of Herod
and from all that the Jewish people had been expecting.”

~Acts 12:1-11

God working miracles with Peter! Coincidence? Angels? God performing miracles for good people? It is all God and we need to give Him a due credit for all the good things and miracles in our lives. He is so great! He can do anything! He can perform miracles and still can even in our lives today! He is a God of justice and fairness! All we need to do is put our trust in Him! It is all about having great faith! We have seen it time and time again, yet so many do not believe! Read this Bible verse well again! This was God working on behalf of Peter! God is a God of miracles in our lives! Happy Solemnity of Saints Peter and Paul, Apostles! So many miracles from these two from God!
