    When A Beggar Got More Then He Asked For

     | 16,687 views

    Acts 3 tells us of a beggar who received much more than he expected. We live in a world where silver and gold has become a god to and for many people; if they only knew that the Lord has much more to offer than the world could ever give them.

    INTRODUCTION: When Jesus called on His disciples, He did not sit them down one by one to negotiate their salary. He did not ask them for a resume, He did not ask them for a reference because no one knew them better than He did. There’s no explanation in the Bible as why He chose His 12 disciples, ...read more

    What Should A Spirit-Filled Church Do? Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Jan 23, 2013
     | 7,100 views

    We see the power of God healing a human life. We see people who have been touched by the power of God touching others. It’s the story of the lame man who begged by the gate called Beautiful. We see a real example of the power of God to heal.

    Luke has described the early church by saying, “Everyone was filled with awe, and many wonders and miraculous signs were done by the apostles.” (Acts 2:43). In Acts 2 Luke doesn’t give us any indication what those miraculous signs and wonders may have been. But now, when we come ...read more

    What do you have of value? When we have Jesus, there is great value ion what we have.

    “The Miracle in What You Have” Acts 3:1-26 What do you have of value? Consider the following first-person account. “Bad luck – the light turned red, and I was trapped standing at the corner. I prayed for it to change quickly. He was standing too close to me. And besides, it ...read more

    God's power flows in some ministries and doesn't flow in other ministries. WHY? There IS an explanation. Using Peter's miracle at the beautiful gate, we can detect 4 key reasons when and where God's power will flow.

    Restoring The Broken

    The lame beggar was over 40 years of age (Acts 4:22) and spent every day in the same place the whole of his life. He is a representation of any person living out their lives without an “other” context.

    I was browsing the internet a few days ago – news stories about the “same old, same old”. “Same old” suggests “nothing has changed” and speaks to those things that frustrate us or annoy us. We can easily slip between boredom and depression because nothing ever seems to change or improve. It could ...read more

    Peter said to the lame man "such as I have give I thee". What did he have to offer that made the difference that day, and what do WE have that can make the difference today?

    Years ago, I learned this cute little camp song. If you know it, sing along with me. “Peter and John went to pray – they met a lame man on the way He held out his palm and asked for an alm – and this is what Peter did say 'Silver and gold have I none, but such as I have give I thee In the name of ...read more

    Jesus has the power to heal us from every physical and mental disease. But he doesn't always use that power. Often, what we need more is to be healed from our spiritual blindness.

    The Gate may be called Beautiful, but the scene was anything but. What can we learn about helping those in need from Peter's decision to give?

    We’ve been studying the book of Acts and have reached a series of events that covers two chapters consisting of three scenes: at the Beautiful Gate, in front of the council, and gathered together with the believers. We’ll examine one scene each week because I know no one wants me to ...read more
