Friday, May 27: Scripture – Acts 16:27-34
27 When the jailer woke up and saw the prison doors wide open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, since he supposed that the prisoners had escaped.
28 But Paul shouted in a loud voice, “Do not harm yourself, for we are all here.”
29 The jailer called for lights, and rushing in, he fell down trembling before Paul and Silas.
30 Then he brought them outside and said, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?”
31 They answered, “Believe on the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household.”
32 They spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all who were in his house.
33 At the same hour of the night he took them and washed their wounds; then he and his entire family were baptized without delay.
34 He brought them up into the house and set food before them; and he and his entire household rejoiced that he had become a believer in God.
Prayer Focus: The jailer knew the strict instructions he had been given to lock up Paul and Silas securely. When he awakes and finds the jail wide open, he prepares to take his own life. But Paul shouts with a loud voice that they are all still here. The doors were opened, but all the prisoners remained inside. The jailer responds by asking what he must do to be saved and he hears, “Believe on the Lord Jesus.” Pray that you might believe on the Lord Jesus today. Pray that you might not just believe for yourself, but that your entire household might believe and be saved.
