Tonight's family reading · Makhado

Paul and Silas Sing in Prison — a 5-minute devotion for Makhado families

Acts 16:16-34 · Songs at midnight

Beaten and locked in the inner cell with their feet in stocks, Paul and Silas were singing hymns at midnight. An earthquake shook the doors open — and instead of running, they stayed and the jailer's whole family came to faith.

If mornings are the only quiet minutes your Makhado household gets, use this before the school run. Read Acts 16:16-34, say the verse once in the car, and come back to the question on the way home. Repetition is doing the work, not length.

Memory verse

“About midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God.”
Acts 16:25

Table question

What song could we sing on a hard day?

30-second prayer

God, teach us midnight songs — praise that does not wait for things to improve. Amen.

Make it stick: pick one person in Makhado — a neighbour, a grandparent, a classmate — and do the thing the story asks for before Sunday. Songs at midnight only counts once it costs something.

Tomorrow: Lydia by the river (Acts 16:11-15). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
