Scripture of the Day
Acts 16:25-26 (NKJV)
“In The Midnight Our”
But at midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to GOD, and the prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone’s chains were loosed.
------------------------------------------------------------------
As I was meditating on these scriptures I began to feel an overwhelming excitement! In the walls of the prison . . . behind the bars of the inner jail cell . . . Paul and Silas had a revival! Even while behind the prison bars without a key . . . they began to sing in key and harmony! How confusing that must have been to the enemy! These two men were in physical bondage, yet they were spiritually free. In fact, their freedom, was the key to others being set free! Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to GOD . . . in the midnight!
Here is the excitement! When we are in bondage . . . the flesh wants to have a pity-party! The flesh in us wants to blame someone, especially if we didn’t do anything wrong! Sometimes the flesh wants revenge! But instead of Paul and Silas curling up in the corners of the jail cell. Instead of crying out “Why me LORD!” They were praying and crying out hymns to GOD, and everyone’s chains were loosed. Now that is a revival worth calling “Setting the Captives Free!” The beautiful thing is . . . we all have that same gift. In the midnight, our voices should ring out with prayers and hymns! Because in the midnight, our GOD is still listening! And in the midnight, our chains will be loosed!
Have A Blessed Weekend!
