PRAYING IN PRISON

2 Cor. 6:3-5 (Message)
Don't put it off; don't frustrate God's work by showing up late, throwing a question mark over everything we're doing. Our work as God's servants gets validated—or not—in the details. People are watching us as we stay at our post, alertly, unswervingly . . . in hard times, tough times, bad times; when we're beaten up, jailed, and mobbed; working hard, working late, working without eating;



In response to being released from prison in Switzerland, in the middle of the night,
I said, “No, I will only go on one condition. That is that every officer there is in this place gets down on his knees and I pray with all of you.”
Smith Wigglesworth


Lord, in the midst of my prisons, give me the wisdom to pray and not to moan and groan. Amen.
