How will we share the great Words we have to others.. "In the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, WALK".... I never really noticed this in this passage. But today it stuck out. This is a story about a crippled man from birth who was being carried to the temple gate called beautiful. He was put there every day to beg. Acts 3: 4-6 "Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, "Look at us!". So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. Then Peter said, "Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk." What really stuck out to me was Peter saying, look at us! What are we thinking we really need? What are the things we are looking at to bring us pleasure? Money can't buy what Jesus has to give. Peter gave him something so much better than money. Jesus Christ is what we need.
God's word tells us in 2 Corinthians chapter 5 verse 18, "All this is from God, who reconciled us to himself through Jesus Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation"... Wherever people need God, He stands ready to be used by us. God has entrusted, and empowered us to shine his light and show his love to a broken world, and broken relationships. Help others to the arms of Jesus Christ.
Lord Jesus, help us to speak Your Word with authority and conviction. Gives us eyes to see those that sit in pain and depression. Help us to be that vessel to lift their eyes to You.
I love you lord. All for your glory.
