What Does it Take to be Certain?⠀ ⠀ About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them. Acts 16:25⠀ ⠀ Thoughts for Today:⠀ I find it so encouraging that, having just been falsely accused, flogged, stripped naked, beaten some more, then thrown in prison -- Paul and Silas' response is to sit on the floor of their jail cell (they had to sit because their feet were in stocks) praying and singing hymns to God so loud the other prisoners could hear. This is a true picture of faith as expressed in Hebrews 11:1, "Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see." It is from this position of certainty that Paul and Silas are able to praise the Lord despite their predicament.⠀ ⠀ CONTINUED HERE: https://buff.ly/3e4WfF3⠀ ⠀ Questions to Ponder:⠀ Do you find it easy to rest in the Lord in your times of crisis? Do you spend time in prayer and worship when you are confused and uncertain about your future? If so it is probably because you have built your faith one day at a time through prayer, study and meditation on God's Word. If your first response is not to "Be still and know that I am the Lord," could it be that perhaps you need to spend more time each day with God?⠀ ⠀ @OfficialIFCB #OfficialIFCB #BeCertain #Acts #Praying #Hymns #God #Encouraging #Faith #Hebrews #Hope #Praise #PraiseTheLord #Lord #Evangelist #BillyGraham #BeStill #Psalm #Spiritually #Morally #Worries #Pray #Meditate #TurnToGod #TrustGod #Crisis #Worship #Meditation #GodsWord #SpendTimeWithGod #InternationalFellowshipOfChristianBusinessmen https://www.instagram.com/p/CG5QIQaj9dX/?igshid=o3vc9f85latw
