Acts 4:30

28 ^ato do whatever Your hand and Your purpose determined before to be done.

29 Now, Lord, look on their threats, and grant to Your servants ^athat with all boldness they may speak Your word,

30 by stretching out Your hand to heal, ^aand that signs and wonders may be done ^bthrough the name of ^cYour holy Servant Jesus.”

31 And when they had prayed, ^athe place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, ^band they spoke the word of God with boldness.

Sharing in All Things

32 Now the multitude of those who believed ^awere of one heart and one soul; ^bneither did anyone say that any of the things he possessed was his own, but they had all things in common.

33 And with ^agreat power the apostles gave ^bwitness to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And ^cgreat grace was upon them all.

Acts 4:29-30

Acts 4:29 And now, Lord, . . . grant. Note their petition. They do not ask to be saved from pain, persecution, or death. There is nothing asked for themselves personally, but they ask (1) that they may have boldness, in the face of threats, to speak the word, and (2) that God would bear them witness by gifts of miraculous power. Their prayer is all for the work's sake.
