Why Do We Worship?نموونە

In Acts 16, Paul and Silas were beaten, shackled, and thrown into prison—and what did they do at midnight? They sang. Not because the pain was gone. Not because they’d been set free yet. But because their focus had shifted.

Worship doesn’t deny what’s wrong—it declares who’s still right.

Psalm 124 reminds us that worship is for the middle of the struggle, not just the end of it.
The hunter’s net was real. The trap was tight. But God tore it open.

There’s something powerful about praising God in the middle of the mess.

• When you sing with tears in your eyes, it’s worship.
• When you pray through the uncertainty, it’s worship.
• When you lift your hands even with the weight of grief, it’s worship.

Worship reorients your heart toward God’s character, not your chaos.
It’s a declaration that says: “God is still good. God is still strong. God is still with me.”

What do you need to stop staring at today, so you can start focusing on the faithfulness of God instead?

Prayer:
Father, help me take my eyes off the trap and fix them on You. Even when the pressure feels heavy, let my worship lift me to a place of peace. Thank You that You are still in control.
