One Church, Blackburn
What do you do when your faith puts you in danger? When standing up for Jesus could cost you everything? In Acts 4, Peter and John face their first taste of persecution—arrested, threatened, and ordered to stop preaching about Jesus. Their response wasn't to play it safe or back down. Instead, they gathered their community and prayed for one thing: MORE boldness. In this message, Jess Hammond unpacks the remarkable prayer meeting that followed their release, exploring three powerful realities for us today: • Fearing God more than fearing people • Living in complete dependence on the Holy Spirit • Being filled afresh again and again The early church understood something we often forget: we are cracked pots that leak and evaporate. We need to keep coming back to the source to be renewed, strengthened, and empowered for the work God has for us. This isn't a message about trying harder—it's an invitation to open your hands, loosen your grip on control, and let God fill you with exactly what you need today. 👉 To get questions for small group discussions on this sermon, check out our blog at https://one.org.au/blog/presence-acts Connect with us: WEBSITE: https://one.org.au INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/one._church FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/churchone We pray that this message was an encouragement for you.
