Acts 16: 25, 26
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 every body's chains came loose.
"At midnight" is a very important statement. It means that Paul and Silas were praying and singing at the darkest hour. We can see in this a deeper meaning; in our darkest hour of life's circumstances, if we pray and sing unto GOD, the LORD will move mightily. He will shake the foundations of the circumstances, open the doors of the binding forces and loosen the chains that bind us.
Never stop praying and singing praise to GOD, others will be listening and they will come to the LORD by your example. GOD never wastes anything. He will use your faithfulness to Him to bring many to Himself for deliverance and for salvation. In this story in Acts, even the Jailer was saved and the other prisoners were set free. The witness of the faithful people is an opportunity for a powerful manifestation of the the mighty acts of GOD.
PRAY WITHOUT CEASING
