Get Up In Jesus' Name

In Acts 3, Peter and John were on their way to pray at the temple when a crippled man asked them for money. Peter said, "…I don’t have any silver or gold for you. But I’ll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, get up and walk!"

Their prayer sparked faith in the heart of this lame man. They reached out in love and the man was healed. God wants to flow through us to reach out to others this week. It may be your prayer, words of encouragement or an act of love that will bring salvation and healing to others. As a result of this healing Peter was able to explain how it happened and 5000 people received Christ as their Savior. A little prayer can make a big difference.

Read the rest of the story in Acts 3 and 4. This Sunday we will study this true story together.

Heavenly Father, flow through us to bring your love, healing and salvation to others.

It is an honor to serve as your Pastor.
