One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer\u2014at three in the afternoon. Now a man who was lame from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, \u201cLook at us!\u201d So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. Then Peter said, \u201cSilver or gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.\u201d Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man\u2019s feet and ankles became strong. He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God. they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the temple gate called Beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him. While the man held on to Peter and John, all the people were astonished and came running to them in the place called Solomon\u2019s Colonnade. When Peter saw this, he said to them: \u201cFellow Israelites, why does this surprise you? Why do you stare at us as if by our own power or godliness we had made this man walk?\nActs 3:1\u202d-\u202c8\u202d, \u202c10\u202d-\u202c12 NIV\n\n\n--- \n\nSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/pastor-lucy-paynter/support
