*Success Also Attracts Attacks*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"And they laid hands on them, and put [them] in custody until the next day, for it was already evening.."* (Acts 4:3 (KJV))
_Bible Insight_
Acts 4:3 shows the apostles Peter and John facing opposition after healing a lame man, which drew attention and popularity. Despite their good deed, they were arrested and put in custody. This verse highlights a crucial lesson: every success attracts attention, and with it, potential attacks.
In the context of Acts, the apostles' ministry was gaining momentum, and their actions were seen as a threat by the religious leaders. The healing of the lame man was a remarkable miracle that showcased God's power, but it also provoked a reaction from those who felt threatened.
This pattern is not unique to the biblical context. In our lives, every success, no matter how small, can attract criticism, envy, or even outright attacks. This can come from others who feel threatened or insecure. The key takeaway is that success often comes with a price, and we must be prepared to face challenges and opposition.
Ultimately, the apostles' experience teaches us to stand firm in our convictions and trust in God's sovereignty, even in the face of adversity. By doing so, we can navigate the challenges that come with success and continue to move forward, empowered by our faith.
_MEDITATION:_
*"Lack of Success does not me a lack of attacks. So, I prefer to be attacked for being successful.”*
