Acts16verse25-26 ‘V25-And at midnight Paul and Silas prayed, and sang praises unto God: and the prisoners heard them. V26–And suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken: and immediately all the doors were opened, and every one’s bands were loosed.’
Dearly beloved, it is possible to be praiseful in the midst of the storms and crises of life. I know this may look strange to you, but this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus name. So, if I were you, I would rejoice because I know that God has me in mind. No matter what kind of crisis you might be going through today, God will keep you the victory as you engage his Word in your life. So, how can you be Joyful in the midst of the storms? Here we go!
HOW TO BE JOYFUL IN THE MIDST OF THE STORMS:
2. Praise God regardless of the situation and circumstances of life. Don’t allow your prevailing condition to limit or stop your praise. Choose to be joyful in spite and despite the challenges of life. This should be your motto and creed! This must be your resolution and conviction! This is what Paul and Silas did in the prison cell they were locked up in. They praised God despite their pains, anguish and discomfort and God gave them a Miracle! God will do the same for you and even much more today, if you will be praiseful or joyful in the midst of your storms. 1Thess5v16.
My dear reader, let your attitude be storms or no storms I will still be praiseful and joyful. Make up your mind that you will not allow what you are going through to stop or limit your praise. Make up your mind that you will not allow where you are to stop you from praising God. Let this be your resolution and conviction! And by the way, if the storms get stronger, choose to intensify your praise .By all possible means, don’t give in to the enemy of your soul. I see you winning big time.as you do this, in Jesus name amen.

Prayer for Today: I choose to be praiseful in my storms, so help me Jesus!
CONFESSION: I walk by faith and not by sight. I walk by his Word and not by my feelings or circumstances of life. I refuse to allow my circumstances to dictate or determine my praise. Instead I choose to praise my God even in the midst of the crisis of life because I know that this is my key to winning at the end of the day! So I rejoice notwithstanding! Hallelujah.
