4/6 Wednesday wisdom
As I look into the twelfth chapter of Acts, I find that the people were praying all night for Peter to come out of prison. They had a zeal but no faith. They were to be commended for their zeal in spending their time in prayer without ceasing, but there was one thing missing. It was faith. Rhoda had more faith than the rest of them. When the knock came to the door,she ran to it, and the moment she heard Peter's voice, she ran back again with joy saying that Peter stood before the gate. And all the people said, "You are mad. It isn't so." But she constantly affirmed that it was even so. But they had not faith, and conjectured, "Well, God has sent His angel." But Peter continued knocking. They had zeal but no faith. And I believe there is quite a difference. -- Smith Wigglesworth
