"5 So Peter was kept in prison, bu the church was earnestly praying to God for him. 6 The night before Herod was to bring him to trial, Peter was sleeping between two soldiers, bound with two chains, and sentries stood guard at the enterance. 7 Suddenly an angel of the Lord appeared and a light shone in the cell. He struck Peter on the side and woke him up. 'Quick, get up!' he said, and the chains fell off Peter's wrists. 8 Then the angel said to him, 'Put on your clothes and sandels.' And Peter did so. 'Wrap your cloak around you and follow me,' the angel told him. 9 Peter followed him out of the prison, but had no idea what the angel was doing was really happening; he thought he was seeing a vision. 10 They passed the first and second guards and came through the iron gate leading to the city. It opened for them by itself, and they went through it. When they had walked tohe length of one street, suddenly the angel left him." -Acts 12:5-10, NIV
Never, EVER, doubt the power of prayer, particularly the power of prayer when it's offered by a group of faithful believers. God has unimaginable power at his disposal (including a huge group of angels like the one that helped Peter) to respond to your prayers.
