The economy has fallen and there is still no sign of recovery. International relations are becoming more tense day by day. There have been riots happening in many places. Many people have become refugees in different parts of the world. There were coups in various countries. Indeed, we are living in the world of darkness. Just because the year has changed, it doesn't automatically change the situation. In fact, it looks like it’s getting darker and darker. What is God doing in the midst of such darkness, the uncertainty about the future, the evil world full of sin, the hopelessness of the situation? "For the Lord, that was a night of intent watching, to bring them out of the land of Egypt" (Exodus 12:42 CEB). In the dark of night, there is nothing people can do. They don't know what to do. They cannot see what is ahead. But God is working through the night for the good of His people. Today, we will learn together how God works in the middle of the night in darkness. 1. Guiding 2.
