Day 15 — Healing at the Gate (Acts 3:1-10) | May 10
from Acts Daily Devotional Podcast · host Derek Sanford
Peter and John head to afternoon prayer at the temple, keeping their old rhythms even after Pentecost. At the Beautiful Gate, they encounter a man lame from birth, someone Jesus himself had walked past multiple times. When the beggar asks for money, Peter does something unexpected: he looks him in the eye and offers dignity before the miracle. What Peter gives is something far greater than silver or gold, the name of Jesus and the power that raised him from death. The man's feet become strong, and he leaps into the temple praising God, fulfilling Isaiah's prophecy that when God comes to save, the lame will leap like deer. This healing reveals that the kingdom has arrived and the Spirit fills everyday moments with divine appointments.
