There is Much Ministry to be Done
“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. And the keeper of the prison awaking out of his sleep, and seeing the prison doors open, he drew out his sword, and would have killed himself, supposing that the prisoners had been fled. But Paul cried with a loud voice, saying, Do thyself no harm: for we are all here. Then he called for a light, and sprang in, and came trembling, and fell down before Paul and Silas, And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” (Acts 16:26-30).
At first glance –
It would seem that God allowed this earthquake to take place in order that Paul and Silas would be set free. The earthquake came and their bands were loosed. There was nothing holding them back. They could have fled immediately!
Wouldn’t have you? But no! Paul and Silas waited!
And as a result
– The jailer and his entire family were saved!
Many times we assume God’s reasoning for doing the things He does. The Lord may have released us to walk through a door that He has clearly opened! But- He may also have other purposes in mind. God’s purposes are not always as they seem! Let’s not be so quick to assume!
There’s no hurry. God won’t shut a door if it is His divine will for it to be open!
Let’s be patient! And be sure to be led by the Spirit of God. These are amazing times we’re living in! We don’t want to miss out on God’s perfect will! There is much ministry to be done!
Wait for some more time for the will of God!!
When He sends –
– Then you Go!
