Here in Acts, we find Paul and Silas in jail in Philippi and what are they doing? Having been beaten with rods, jailed in maximum security with their feet in stocks, they are singing and praying to GOD.
Gary Hamrick does a beautiful lesson on this which he has entitled "singing in the darkness". I will post the link below.
Would you and I be singing and praying to GOD if we had to go through and ordeal like this?
I am really not sure. Paul and Silas were not sure what was going to happen to them. Nevertheless, there they were singing hymns and praying to GOD.
This is such a lesson for us. No matter our circumstances we need to give all praise and glory to GOD.
This is our reason for being on earth. There is no hidden purpose for our lives, other than to worship GOD and to bring glory to HIM.
GOD will keep on refining us until we die to self and start to serve and worship and glorify HIM alone.
Prayer: ABBA FATHER, I am so grateful to YOU for all that I am and all that I have. I worship and honour YOU FATHER. Grant me the strength to praise and worship YOU in all that I do. I humbly pray this in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Stay amazingly Jesus Blessed today!
