​Acts 3:4-7

     4 Who seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple asked an alms.

     5 And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him with John, said, Look on us.

Who are you locking eyes with? What do you think would have happened if the crippled man did not follow Peter's instruction, and lock eyes with him? Peter said, “Look on us.” The man followed the instructions. Obviously, he thought he was going to get money. Nonetheless, he followed the instructions. In other words, we are not giving you money today; this is what we have for you today.

​

It matters where you’re looking when you need a miracle.

 

Every time my pastor gets behind the pulpit and ministers, he is saying look at me. He doesn’t have to say the words, he’s on the platform with a microphone. He expects all of us to be looking at—paying attention to him.

 

He expects us to pay attention to him because he has our answers from the Word and the Holy Spirit.

Perhaps you come to church needing a money miracle but your pastor preaches on marriage. You disconnect because you think you need to hear about a way to a money miracle. You miss your answer because you think you know better than your pastor. The way you’re treating your spouse could be the reason you’re having money issues.

 

     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.

     7 And he took him by the right hand, and lifted him up: and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength.”

 

Every time our pastor preaches, he’s giving us a hand up. He is saying, “Look at me I have your answer.”

 

Have a great week and remember this, Jesus is coming soon!!!
