We all really appreciate the more popular names like Moses and Abraham, David, Samuel, John the Baptist, Paul, Peter etc. But what of the ones that do not have as well known names or even no names at all. Such ones as the old lady Anna or Simeon who both knew that the Lord Jesus, even as a babe was the Savior of the World.
Please share today...and refresh our memories of all those who made their small mark.
Ty all for taking the time to respond
in Christ

Rhoda, the servant girl who recognized Peter's voice at the door after he had been delivered from prison in Acts 12. She ran to the others and told them that Peter was at the door, and even though they accused her of being mad, she kept on affirming it was so.
I admire the strength and courage of Rhoda, because she really believed in the power of prayer! God bless you!!!

Right off the top of my head...Hannah and Nicodemus.
Let's see: Rehab, Johnathan
Be back with more later.
EDIT:
Deborah, Gideon, Barnabas, all the minor prophets.
The Apostle Philip:
He was over-abundantly blessed with the gifts of the Spirit. He converted people, but we only read one miracle for him; and that is the when he disappeared from one place and was immediately seen in another city and continued there for a time. If he could do this, I firmly believe he did many more miracles, but no one was following him around recording what he was doing.
I don't know if the martyr Stephen should be included or not. What do you say?

Well Girl you know how to ask a question remind me of me, these type of questions are thru Disernment, which is a Gift From Father God in Heaven, I appreciate the (Thessollonians)-The way they write as to the way I write, there Message's and how to read and understand the Message and how to give understanding-I appreciate all people that had a chance to meet with Jesus, for back in those days are the days you and I are Living and everyone else, I can't seperate the names of the People, Beacuse Father God used them all in a good way, even those who were bad to get His will done on Earth as in Heaven. All Made there Mark, Just like We are Making our Mark.
Our memories should be like it was back then, before we were infotrated by Satans People, The Children of the Tribes are still here, there's a message in the answer.
I feel something spiritual from You answering this question, don't know what it is but, Father God is working.
I Really see your questions have changed, That really touches My Heart, Thank you: From Heaven:

Who, I love and even in some way jealous of is Simon the Cyrene (MT27:32) for unlike me and the rest of the world that Jesus bares our crosses, he bore the Lord's cross for a short while.

Queen Esther. She was beautiful both inside and out. And when the time came for her to speak up for her people and help them avoid slaughter, she didn't hesitate to do so, even at the risk of her own life.

The poor woman who gave Christ all she had.
Self sacrifice with no expectations.

Enoch... for he walked with G_D and G_D was pleased. He was also a descendant of Adam.
