No matter what is going on around you, when it feels dark and cold, when there seems to be nothing but pain and suffering, praise Him anyway. Through praise we see the battles won. Through praise our spirit gets lifted. Through praise hope rises. Through praise comes freedom. You may not be in an actual jail cell like Paul and Silas, but we all have our own prisons. Past hurts, rejection, addictions, or even loss, in all that is around us, we simply have to praise. When we put Christ first and as the center of our focus, everything else becomes less, and our freedom comes through the Hope of Jesus Christ in us.
”The crowd joined in the attack against Paul and Silas, and the magistrates ordered them to be stripped and beaten with rods. After they had been severely flogged, they were thrown into prison, and the jailer was commanded to guard them carefully. When he received these orders, he put them in the inner cell and fastened their feet in the stocks. About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them. Suddenly there was such a violent earthquake that the foundations of the prison were shaken. At once all the prison doors flew open, and everyone’s chains came loose.“
Acts 16:22-26 NIV
Song: Gratitude by Brandon Lake (second Bridge by Brandon and Leah Monson)
