Follow the chain of events. Paul and Silas are arrested. Paul and Silas choose to worship. God sends an earthquake. Paul and Silas remain, sparing the life of the jailer. Because of Paul and Silas’ actions, the jailer and his family are saved and baptized. None of this happens if Paul and Silas do not worship God after their arrest. Paul and Silas’ choices allow for an entire family to see the power of God and then believe in the Lord Jesus.


What can your choice to worship mean for you and those around you? For you, it gives peace in moments when peace is hard to find. Paul and Silas experienced peace through their songs and prayers. And for others, it allows them to see your witness for Christ and wonder what you have that they don’t. Your witness allows them to think about why you are joyful when you should be anxious or angry. With that in mind, are you going to choose to worship through the tough times today? You never know what doors can be opened from that choice.
