       But we are told that while Peter was asleep, and even chained to a couple of guards, that what? Let’s read the passage. “And behold, an angel of the Lord stood next to him, and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him, saying, “Get up quickly.” And the chains fell off his hands” (Acts 12:7, ESV). Now we are seeing the invisible interacting with the visible. The invisible powers. Satan had been using the physical government and the chained soldiers to show his invisible power, making it become visible, Now, the Lord brings about his invisible power making it become visible through the angel. After Peter is dressed, the angel of the Lord leads Peter out. Note verse 10: “When they had passed the first and the second guard, they came to the iron gate leading into the city. It opened for them of its own accord, and they went out and went along one street, and immediately the angel left him” (Acts 12:10, ESV). Consider and take note of the invisible power of the angel.
