An earthquake erupted and the j was opened. Its Paul and Silas opportun Deliverance! Praise God! might be the appropriate response. But this is not wh and Silas did. In fact, rather than leave, t sat quietly in their cell area. The guard, i of his life, knew that it would be automat death if prisoners escaped.

Our adverse situ can often be the door of spiritual opport for those who need it. I saw this personally when God allowed go through a number of adversities. It to some time, but I saw some great miracle result of those adversities.

It is up to find the work together for good part being faithful to the process. In the next adversity you face, tune your spiritual an and ask God for discernment to see the purpose for the adversity.
