I Believe in Miracles (Acts 3)

from Will Preach For Food Podcast

I believe in miracles, and I want you to believe in miracles, too. And I’m not talking about the “Mariners going to the World Series” genre of miracles, though that would be something! No, I’m talking about real miracles: divinely initiated interventions that favorably alter reality, demonstrating the mercy of God and furthering God’s mission in the world today.Today's message is about miracles--one that happened 2000 years ago, and the miracles that happen today."Equally Blessed" is the latest video from Pete and Jana Gedde, aka "Piggy Productions."Acts 2:46-3:1046 Every day they continued to meet together in the temple courts. They broke bread in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts, 47 praising God and enjoying the favor of all the people. And the Lord added to their number daily those who were being saved.One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon. 2 Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. 3 When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. 4 Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, “Look at us!” 5 So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them.6 Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” 7 Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong. 8 He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God. 9 When all the people saw him walking and praising God, 10 they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the temple gate called Beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.Support the show
