Expect the Sunrise Quotes

“Even Paul’s darkest moments were used by God to build his faith, prepare him for the next step. When Paul and his partner Timothy sat in prison and thought they would die, Paul said, ‘In fact, we expected to die. But as a result, we stopped relying on ourselves and learned to rely only on God, who raises the dead. And he did rescue us from mortal danger, and he will rescue us again. We have placed our confidence in him, and he will continue to rescue us.’ “Those verses aren’t just talking about deliverance from death, but deliverance from bondage. Like fear and fruitlessness and despair. Paul wrote that they ‘learned to rely only on God, who raises the dead.’ That’s not only people who are dead, but those who feel dead. As if life is over. God raises those walking corpses and gives them new minds and bodies, frees them from deadly thinking. Don’t you think that Paul and Timothy believed they had experienced a sort of resurrection when they were released?”
