Acts 16:25 (after Paul and Silus were thrown into prison for no cause- they had done nothing wrong) "About midnight, Paul and Silus (while they were in jail) were praying. They were also singing praises to God. The other prisoners were listening. And suddenly there was a powerful earthquake. The foundations of the prison were shaken. And immediately all the doors were open and all of their chains fell off!"
Have you ever felt like you were at a "midnight" in your life? Where everything seemed dark around you? Have you ever felt in chains, bound to something and that no matter what you did, how many times you told God you were sorry, that you couldn't break free?
Have you ever felt falsely accused of something and no one seemed to believe you or try to understand you?
God saw the midnight, the darkest hour of Paul and Silas. God sees your "midnight". What did Paul and Silus do? They prayed and sang praises to God. And then what happened?
Suddenly God began to shake the foundations.... and immediately all the doors were open and all of their chains fell off!
As we begin to praise Him, God will replace your darkness with light, God will set you free from the chains that bind you, and God will be your advocate, your deliverer and will fight the battles for you!
