TOPIC : THE POWER OF EXPECTATION
TEXT ACTS 3 : 1-6
[1]Now Peter and John went up together into the temple at the hour of prayer, being the ninth hour.
[2]And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms of them that entered into the temple;
[3]Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.
[4]And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.
[5]And he gave heed unto them, expecting to receive something of them.
[6]Then Peter said, Silver and gold have I none; but such as I have give I thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth rise up and walk.
Beloved, in verse 4 of the story we just read, Peter and John told the lame man to look at them.
To look at them in this context means to expect something.
In verse 5 the scripture said that the man gave heed to them meaning that he expected something from them.
It was his expectation that gave birth to his miracle.
If you can believe, nothing is impossible to whomsoever believes.
The expectation of the righteous shall not be cut off.
His expectation purchased this miracle, your own expectation will purchase your own in Jesus mighty name, Amen.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
(Please be a blessing to seven persons by sending to them our devotionals)
