Let us muse today on a fourth attitude displayed by Paul in the storm of Acts 27. It is the attitude of let the night come. I draw our attention first of all to the mention of the night. In 27:20-23 I see there has been no sun for many days. In 27:27 Luke says it is the fourteenth night of the storm. The number 14 in the Bible is always the number of divine supernatural deliverance. I see in the text it is midnight which always speaks of desperation. Midnight in the Bible is mentioned fourteenth times. You would almost think that God wrote the Bible. So we see from the text it is a time of desperation and only divine supernatural deliverance can get them out. I see in the mention of the night that when it comes for us He is more than able to come through with divine supernatural deliverance.
