To recieve, you must believe. It is more than fighting and doing the practicle. Many people read the Word, but do not believe it. But if you really believe, it is going to be the power to overcome any problem that comes (see John 16:33; Deut 31:8).
Now Peter is in prison (Acts 12). Peter, the leader of the church is struggling, but it says that the church earnestly prayed. Now today people often turn to a talent rather than prayer, because talent brings results, where as prayer you run perhaps a better chance or at least seems so likely that nothing will happen.
How amazing is it that Peter is sleeping next to 2 enemies ready to kill him the next day, and yet he has enough peace to sleep right next to them (v.6). You know if you can learn to stay faithful like Peter, you will see the supernatural. Do you believe like in (v.11) God can send an angel to anticipate any of your problems. God heals but we must believe.
Rodah saw the answer to her and the churches prayer (v.13). In relation to (v.5) the church prayed, fighting and doing the practicle, yet said to Rodah when the answer had come-"are out of your mind? It must be his angel". See the church had doubt that Peter was actually there and set free, meanwhile this is what they pray for. What they prayed for they did not believe.
We need to believe, to open the door of our hearts and let the blessing come. We must start praying, "Today God, I want to see your blessing, I seek it, I ask for it, God I'm knocking." And I believe God will say "I'm going to bless you." Believe and it will be done. But we can sure pray without believing.
Those who have ears, let them hear. You can do something supernatural by opening the door. If you do not do your part by opening the door, the blessing of God will not happen.
