The lame man walks

Read Acts 3:1–16

Peter speaks in the name of Jesus Christ, takes the man's hand, and the man walks, leaps, and praises God. Peter then refuses the crowd's assumption that the miracle came through his own power or godliness. The risen Jesus is central. Pray with confidence in Christ and give Him the glory rather than building a ministry around the messenger.

Put the Word into practice

Pray for a person in need in Jesus' name, with their consent, and direct attention toward Christ.

Search the Scripture

How does Peter explain the healing when the crowd gathers?

A prayerful response

Risen Jesus, show Your mercy and power. Keep our ministry humble and centered on You. Amen.
