0:00.0	Today, we're spending our time focusing on prayer.
0:13.2	Welcome to the Join the Journey weekly prayer podcast.
0:17.1	Welcome to Conversations with the Journey, a weekly podcast to help us commune with our God through prayer in response to what he has spoken to us through his word.
0:26.5	I hope, brothers and sisters, that you're enjoying the time we're spending together in the book of Acts this year on the journey.
0:32.4	And as we kick off this week, we're looking forward to another week in Acts chapter 5 verses 12 through 16. If we haven't met,
0:41.5	my name is Grant Wilkie. I'm filling in for Wes Butler. And if you miss his wonderful voice,
0:46.3	I do as well. He's a dear friend and someone I look up to so much and feel honored to be
0:52.4	following after him on this podcast.

1:26.5	out into the streets and lay them on cots and mats so that when peter came by at least his shadow might fall on some of them
1:34.5	in addition a multitude came together from towns surrounding jerusalem bringing the sick and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.
1:48.3	Now there's another podcast this week that's going to explain a little more of what's going on in this passage.
1:54.7	But I just want to point out a few things for us to consider as we think about how we might pray through this.
2:02.4	First off, if you see in the first few words of verse 12, we see that many signs and wonders are being done through the hands
2:10.2	of the Apostles. Now, there's a literary device called allusions, and I'm not talking about I-L-L-allusions, like a magic trick. I'm talking about A-L-L-L-illusions, like a magic trick. I'm talking
2:19.3	about A-L-L-L-L-Eusions. I know they sound the exact same, but if you can't see the word, it can be a little
