Persecutions

Evangelist Martha P. Davis emphasizes the importance of praising God and walking in righteousness and holiness. She reminds believers of their privilege as children of God, seated in heavenly places with Christ, and having continuous access to His presence. She warns of increasing persecution for followers of Christ, urging them to stand firm in faith, pray fervently, and rely on the Holy Spirit for boldness. Using Acts 12 as a foundation, she recounts Peter’s miraculous deliverance from prison through the prayers of the church, demonstrating God's power and faithfulness. The sermon also highlights the judgment of King Herod for failing to honor God and the continued spread of the Gospel despite opposition. She encourages believers to remain steadfast, trust in God's justice, and boldly proclaim His truth.
