Consider Paul and Silas in Acts 16. Thrown into prison, beaten, and bound in chains for casting out a demon, they faced a situation where darkness seemed to be winning. But at midnight, they did something remarkable: they raised their voices in worship—expressing their revelation of God’s authority even in chains. The result? An earthquake shook the prison, doors flew open, and chains fell off.
This is what happens when we worship the highest authority instead of fearing lesser powers.

Generosity Starts with Grace   The Apostle Paul makes it clear: the Macedonians’ giving wasn’t a result of their wealth, but of God’s grace working

“Then I said to them, ‘You see the trouble we are in: Jerusalem lies in ruins, and its gates have been burned with fire. Come, let us rebuild the wall of Jerusalem, and we will no longer be in disgrace.’ I also told them about the gracious hand of my God on me and what the king had said to me. They replied, ‘Let us start rebuilding.’ So they began this good work.” (Nehemiah 2:17–18)
