The Church in the book of Acts was a praying church. They continued to break through in spite of resistance, persecution, even death. They prayed until “the place where they were assembled together was shaken” (Acts 4:31). The result of their praying was an apostolic release of great power and great grace (see verse 33). Signs and wonders were released, and “believers were increasingly added to the Lord” (Acts 5:14).
