Acts 4:24-31

24When they heard this, they raised their voices together to God and said, “Master, you are the one who made the heaven, the earth, and the sea, and everything in them.

25You said through the Holy Spirit, by the mouth of our father David your servant: Why do the Gentiles rage and the peoples plot futile things?

26The kings of the earth take their stand and the rulers assemble together against the Lord and against his Messiah.

27“For, in fact, in this city both Herod and Pontius Pilate, with the Gentiles and the people of Israel, assembled together against your holy servant Jesus, whom you anointed,

28to do whatever your hand and your will had predestined to take place.

29And now, Lord, consider their threats, and grant that your servants may speak your word with all boldness,

30while you stretch out your hand for healing, and signs and wonders are performed through the name of your holy servant Jesus.”

31When they had prayed, the place where they were assembled was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak the word of God boldly.
