DAY 25: Sunday, October 25
TOPIC: Praise for Answered Prayer
SCRIPTURE: “Then Peter came to himself and said, “Now I know without a doubt that the Lord has sent his angel and rescued me from Herod’s clutches….” -Acts 12: 11
OBSERVATION: Sometimes God out of the blue and dramatically answers our prayers. Other times involve prolonged waiting. In Acts Chap. 12 the Apostle Peter was given a sudden and miraculous answer as God sent an angel to deliver him from prison. It took a bit for Peter to realize his prayers for freedom had been answered. It was only when he was out of his cell, through the maze of the prison, and in the dark street that he realized he was really delivered from jail. Like Peter, we too can be so focused on our prayers that we fail to see the answer God sends. Whether your path to praise is long or short, be ready to offer praise to God for what He does in your life. God has His timing, let’s be always be ready with our praise.
PRAYER: Father, today we thank you for answered prayers! May we live lives of gratitude and in all things may we bring Your honor and glory.
