The room was small. The huddled group was desperate. The blinding sun invaded the windows. Hungry feet paced. Desiring souls hummed. Stored prayers broke forth. Geysers of intercession. Explosions of determination. Burning embers of volcanic indignation. They would not remain silent in the storm. They refused to acquiesce to threats and human thrones.

Somebody burst forth in tongues. Another bowed and rocked back and forth. Others leaned against the earthen wall. No matter the position they all prayed. No matter the posture they all prayed. No matter the problems they all prayed.

Passivity dissolved. Faint heartedness vanished. Boldness blazed. Fear took a back seat to the driving travail. It got louder. The intensity flamed. The words echoed down the street. Sinners nearby heard it. Sanhedrin members would eventually get the report. The Jesus name bunch is back at it. Praying again. Preaching that name again. Their red faces of anger couldn’t stop it. Their verbal threats and physical harm couldn’t silence it. Their political motives and society concerns didn’t compromise them. They loudly proclaimed it. They amplified their souls from the hot furnaces of prayer and when their mouths opened, hot coals of truth lit the world on fire. Pray On…Listen now.
