The Sound of Victory

Nov 10, 2025    Pastor Valerie Hooper

Reading: Psalm 100:1-2; Acts 16:22-26


Devotional: Joy is not a reaction to favorable circumstances—it's a declaration of faith in an unchanging God. When Paul and Silas sang praises at midnight in a Philippian prison, their worship wasn't denial of their pain; it was defiance against despair. Their joyful noise shook the foundations and opened prison doors. Today, God invites you to make a joyful shout, not because everything is perfect, but because He is. Your praise is prophetic—it announces victory before you see it. What prison of worry, fear, or disappointment needs the earthquake of your worship today? Choose to sing in your midnight. Let joy be your weapon and thanksgiving your battle cry.


Reflection Question: What situation in your life requires you to choose joy over complaint today?
