TODAY’S INSPIRATION: ACTS 16V25-31.
“25 ¶ And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them.
26 And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.
27 And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled.
28 But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here.
29 Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas,
30 And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?
31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.” (KJV)

PRAYER:
Heavenly Father,
We come before You, inspired by the testimony of Paul and Silas, as they worshiped and prayed during their darkest hour. Like them, we acknowledge that true freedom and deliverance come from You alone.
In the midst of our trials, may we be a shining example of hope and joy, just as Paul and Silas were in the prison. Grant us the strength to persevere, filled with courage and assurance of Your unwavering love and faithfulness. Let the power of our worship and prayer, even in the darkest times, shake the foundations of despair and release the chains that hold us back.
We believe that You are a God of miracles, and we trust in Your perfect timing and plan. Grant us the discernment to recognize Your deliverance and the humility to give You all the glory.
In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
