God can step in suddenly and change everything.

In today’s 5-Minute Daily Devotional, we reflect on Acts 16:25–26, where Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God in prison. Suddenly, a violent earthquake shook the foundations, the doors flew open, and everyone’s chains came loose.

We can make plans, but sometimes we take for granted what we think will happen. We should plan and prepare, but like the unpredictability of weather, we must always remain dependent on God. When He makes a change, it can be a really good one.

📖 Scripture: 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 everyone’s chains came loose.” (NIV)
