Acts 3:1 Now Peter and John went up together to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour.

Do you regularly set aside time for prayer? How many times a day? How many times a week? Or is it monthly!

Many of us fall far short of the example the disciples set with their prayers and their lives with Christ; but this does not mean we should give up. Far from it!

God wants to hear our prayers every day and constantly. Make a change in your life today and set time for prayer as being one of those important things to accomplish every day!

Isaiah 35:6 Then the lame shall leap like a deer, And the tongue of the dumb sing. For waters shall burst forth in the wilderness, And streams in the desert.

When Jesus gave the disciples the command to go out into all the world it was not just to speak to people but to go out and do miracles just as He had taught them.

Look up what happened to the lame man who Peter told to get up and walk; he leapt up and danced around with Joy.

Just as the prophets said the Messiah would do wonders, Jesus gave us the power to go out and do wonders as well.

Believe in what Jesus has given you and not just in what you think you should do!

Luke 7:22 Jesus answered and said to them, “Go and tell John the things you have seen and heard: that the blind see, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, the poor have the gospel preached to them.

Did Jesus turn round to the disciples and tell them these things to boast about them? No!

What He was doing was telling them of the events which the prophets had said would happen when the Messiah came.

Jesus was trying to build up the case for them to fully accept Him as being the Messiah, giving them more proof so they could tell others of these same truths.

Jesus came to save the world and not to blame the world!

John 14:11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves.

When Jesus was trying to get the disciples and people around Him to believe His Words He was obviously having a hard time.

Jesus tries hard to get us to believe the simple words, but then sometimes words just don’t seem to be enough for us to follow Him.

He came and did many miracles, He continues to do miracles; if you don’t want to believe the words, then believe the miracles!

Trust God.
