Theme
Nighttime can be the hardest for those with MS—pain, restlessness, and anxiety often creep in. Yet even in the darkest hours, we can lift our voices in praise.
Scripture
"At midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the other prisoners were listening to them." — Acts 16:25 (NIV)
Devotional
Paul and Silas were beaten, chained, and thrown into prison—yet their midnight song shook the very foundations of the jail. Your worship in the night has power too. It pushes back the darkness, strengthens your spirit, and points others to the God who is faithful.When sleep won’t come and pain won’t quit, you can choose to praise. Not because your circumstances are easy, but because your God is good. The song you sing in the dark will echo into the light. Music Link:

Midnight Hallelujah
Lyrics
(Verse 1)Chains on my hands, shadows on my soulBut I lift my voice, ‘cause You’re still in controlIn the midnight hour, my praise will riseLike a beacon shining through the night(Chorus)Midnight hallelujah, You’re still on the throneEven in the darkness, I’m never aloneEvery note I’m singing is breaking the chainsMidnight hallelujah, forever You reign(Verse 2)Pain may whisper, fear may tryBut my song is louder, it fills the skyWalls start shaking, doors swing wideWhen Your glory falls on the midnight tide(Chorus)Midnight hallelujah, You’re still on the throneEven in the darkness, I’m never aloneEvery note I’m singing is breaking the chainsMidnight hallelujah, forever You reign(Bridge)I’ll praise You in the prison, I’ll praise You in the storm‘Cause Your love is my freedom, it carries me homeNo matter the hour, my heart will proclaimMidnight hallelujah, forever You reign(Chorus)Midnight hallelujah, You’re still on the throneEven in the darkness, I’m never aloneEvery note I’m singing is breaking the chainsMidnight hallelujah, forever You reign
Prayer
Lord, teach me to sing through the night. Let my praise be a light that breaks the chains of fear and fills my heart with hope. Amen.
