Praise Broke My Chains

Text:Matthew 16:25 KJV "But at Midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the Prisoners heard them.

Paul and Silas we're imprisoned for God's work which is a great testimony for all believers, and even though wrongly charged, they went to jail in a dungeon in agony of pain from being whipped and were chained hands and feet to a wall for discomfort. They began to sing; what dedication to the faith, inspired by all they had just undergone they sang Praises to God and the prisoners heard them. We must learn to praise God and bless His name no matter how difficult the situation may seem, and who's around. GOD'S PURPOSE in and for our lives will manifest itself according to His will, plan and timing; just wait, and while you're waiting on God to make a way of escape, you might as we'll Praise Him in advance for what you want Him to do. Praise brings God into your problems, (Psalms 22:3) takes the chaos out of it and brings order! Praising God can free you from any chains, prison, bondage and when God inhabits your Praise, everyone is affected by His Power.
