Father God, I thank you for the faithfulness of the Apostles, who came out from hiding to commit their lives to spreading the gospel for your name’s sake. I pray for a great work of the Holy Spirit to move hearts and turn heads to point them to Jesus. Only He can turn the hearts and minds of the kings like coursing of the rivers. I pray for His moving over the waters of humanity to bring many sons and daughters to glory in the name and authority of Jesus, according to your good and perfect will. Amen.
 
“But we ought always to give thanks to God for you, brothers beloved by the Lord, because God chose you as the firstfruits to be saved, through sanctification by the Spirit and belief in the truth. To this he called you through our gospel, so that you may obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus Christ.”
