We will begin with a look at Peter in Luke 22:61-62. We see here that Peter has just disowned Jesus for the third time and before Peter’s last word leaves his lips, a rooster crows. This is exactly what Peter said he would not do. He realizes he has failed again. The scene ends with Peter broken and weeping bitterly. Approximately 53 days later in the book of Acts 2, the same Peter without fear addresses a crowd of thousands in Jerusalem boldly proclaiming Jesus Christ is Lord and 3,000 souls are saved. What happened to Peter during those 53 days? Defeated, weeping, broken, separated from Christ to BOLD, powerful, fearless, proclaiming Jesus is Lord! Semper Reformandi: (Always transforming) the transforming power of God. I declare to you today that the same power that transformed Peter is available to us today and until Jesus comes. Come Lord Jesus! Let the church say, come Lord Jesus, come!
