Choosing Praise in Prison Moments
Acts 16:25-34
Paul and Silas faced brutal injustice—beaten, wrongly accused, and shackled in darkness. Yet at midnight, they chose worship over complaint. Their praise didn't wait for freedom; it created the atmosphere for breakthrough. When life imprisons you with circumstances beyond your control, remember that praise is a choice, not a feeling. Your midnight moments are opportunities to demonstrate faith that transcends understanding. Like Paul and Silas, your worship in the darkness becomes a witness to those watching. What "prison" are you in today? Choose to sing anyway. Your praise may be the catalyst that opens doors—not just for you, but for everyone around you.
Reflection Question: What would change if you praised God before the breakthrough instead of after?
