GLENN’S NOTES
Sermon- Ac 12-
Intro: Men’s retreat- Wild. Great lessons, d-groups, and of course goofing
around. Really sore. Really challenged. Really refreshed.
Peter’s Miraculous Escape From Prison
It was about this time that King Herod arrested some who belonged to
the church, intending to persecute them. 2He had James, the brother of
John, put to death with the sword. 3When he saw that this met with
approval among the Jews, he proceeded to seize Peter also. This
happened during the Festival of Unleavened Bread. 4After arresting him,
he put him in prison, handing him over to be guarded by four squads of
four soldiers each. Herod intended to bring him out for public trial after
the Passover.
5So Peter was kept in prison, but the church was earnestly praying to
God for him.
1. Inspired!
Contrast of Herod and Peter
Herod Agrippa I- Son of Herod Antipas. long history of being swayed by
people. The politician chasing the polls. No backbone, no standard. Willing
to kill to please the crowd.
How far are you willing to go to please the crowd? What has the crowd
already induced you to do?
Ex. Hospital new slogan- inspired! staff assembly- inspired together. Well
done.
Yet their inspiration is a bit short-lived.
Eternal inspiration. Not of this world.
Peter- Had already been arrested by the Sanhedrin, miraculously escaped,
and immediately resumed his preaching. Willing to have an entire nation
demanding his death. Why?
What would make Peter willing to be arrested and possibly killed?
We’re inspired to act on behalf of our kids. Shallow motivation relative to this.
Ex. Isaac- teacher bagging Bible in class, refuted his statements. Courage!
Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great
mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the
resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that
can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for
you, who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of
the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. In all this you
greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer
grief in all kinds of trials. These have come so that the proven
genuineness of your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes
even though refined by fire—may result in praise, glory and honor when
Jesus Christ is revealed. Though you have not seen him, you love him;
and even though you do not see him now, you believe in him and are
filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the
end result of your faith, the salvation of your souls. ( 1 Peter 1 : 3-9 NIV)
What could turn a fisherman into an evangelist? Walking with J.
What could turn you into an activist? Walking with J. Faith. Eternity.
6The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping
between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries stood guard
at the entrance. 7Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light
shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. “Quick,
get up!” he said, and the chains fell off Peter’s wrists.
8Then the angel said to him, “Put on your clothes and sandals.” And
Peter did so. “Wrap your cloak around you and follow me,” the angel told
him. 9Peter followed him out of the prison, but he had no idea that what
the angel was doing was really happening; he thought he was seeing a
vision. 10They passed the first and second guards and came to the iron
gate leading to the city. It opened for them by itself, and they went
through it. When they had walked the length of one street, suddenly the
angel left him.
11Then Peter came to himself and said, “Now I know without a doubt that
the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from Herod’s clutches and
from everything the Jewish people were hoping would happen.”
When this had dawned on him, he went to the house of Mary the
mother of John, also called Mark, where many people had gathered and
were praying. 13Peter knocked at the outer entrance, and a servant
named Rhoda came to answer the door. 14When she recognized Peter’s
voice, she was so overjoyed she ran back without opening it and
exclaimed, “Peter is at the door!”
15“You’re out of your mind,” they told her. When she kept insisting that
it was so, they said, “It must be his angel.”
16But Peter kept on knocking, and when they opened the door and saw
him, they were astonished. 17Peter motioned with his hand for them to
be quiet and described how the Lord had brought him out of prison. “Tell
James and the other brothers and sisters about this,” he said, and then
he left for another place.
18In the morning, there was no small commotion among the soldiers as
to what had become of Peter. 19After Herod had a thorough search made
for him and did not find him, he cross-examined the guards and ordered
that they be executed.
2. Unstoppable!
Peter had this pattern of miraculous jail breaks. Previously released from the
Sanhedrin’s jail to immediately resume preaching. I guess that’s why Herod
used 2 chains and 4 squads of 4 soldiers to guard him. Still didn’t work.
The world will be ineffective at holding back God’s Kingdom. God’s work
through Godly men and women will be unstoppable!
What’s your prison? What has you trapped?
The bars are invisible, can’t see the guards, but still stuck.
-toxic relationship- God can turn conflict upside down, bring healing
-toxic workplace
-substance or alcohol- many are the people that have had their addiction
ended by God’s power
-sexual addiction/porn- freedom
-selfishness- God can create genuine love
-insecurity- God can create a real foundation of security that is unshakable
Flimsy bars, open by themselves. Unstoppable!
If God can free Peter from Herod’s iron prison guarded by 16 armed guys,
then what makes you think He can’t free you!
Q- Do you want to be set free?
Herod’s Death
Then Herod went from Judea to Caesarea and stayed there. 20He had
been quarreling with the people of Tyre and Sidon; they now joined
together and sought an audience with him. After securing the support of
Blastus, a trusted personal servant of the king, they asked for peace,
because they depended on the king’s country for their food supply.
21On the appointed day Herod, wearing his royal robes, sat on his
throne and delivered a public address to the people. 22They shouted,
“This is the voice of a god, not of a man.” 23Immediately, because Herod
did not give praise to God, an angel of the Lord struck him down, and he
was eaten by worms and died.
24But the word of God continued to spread and flourish.
3. Undefeatable!
God eventually wins. Every time.
Herod- This king/tetrarch whose GF Herod the Great had slaid thousands of
infants in Bethlehem in an attempt to kill the infant Jesus, Father Herod
Antipas had beheaded John the Baptist, Herod Agrippa I had James killed with
the sword, imprisoned Peter- eventually met his end.
No matter how dark it looks. No matter how intimidating your giants are. No
matter how insignificant you feel:
The word of God continued to spread and flourish!
Undefeatable!
