Begging Isn’t For You
But Peter said, Silver and gold have I none, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!
- Acts 3:6, MKJV
Have you ever met a beggar who has been crippled since the day of his birth, who was carried everyday of his life to an old church or along the streets to beg for alms so that he can live? Have you ever imagined the way he lives his everyday life? It could have been so frustrating that it’s even better to die than to live. This was the exact beggar that Peter, together with John, have healed on their way to the temple; and this beggar could have been hiding in you and you could have been crippled, and begging all your life without you even knowing it.
There are many portions that made your life as you know it. It could be your family, circle of friends, memorable experiences, lifelong achievements, tremendous opportunities – these things and many more were the things that have shaped your life and these are exact things that also inflicted you with the being of the crippled beggar – rejected by family, unaccepted by friends, traumatic experiences, hardships that in the process made you feel fear, doubt, mistrust, being alone. These things crippled you from becoming the maximized you. They hinder you from doing things that would make you complete. They restrict you from running the race of life set before you. They are the crutches that constantly remind you that you are crippled, you’re unwanted, and you can’t be a someone.
Want to know what happened to the crippled beggar? The moment that crippled beggar heard and believed the declaration of Peter “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!”, he started to rise up, his feet and ankles started to have strength, he began to leap, walking and leaping along the temple grounds.
Whatever it is that cripples you, there is a name so powerful, it can turn everything upside down. It’s never too late for a modern day miracle to happen to you. That name can change your life! The same way that Peter and John healed that crippled beggar, you can also be healed. Yes, the crippled beggar in you can be healed! There is power in the name of Jesus Christ. Declare it to your self, “In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk!” You can be healed from your trauma, you can be healed from rejection, you can be relieved with your fear, doubt, distress, and mistrust; you can be healed from whatsoever things that cripples you from the day you were born. You just need one name in your life – JESUS. Jesus can make a difference in you. For God so loved you that He gave His only begotten Son, Jesus, that if you believe in Him, you will not perish but have an everlasting life.
Make a call for Him. He is the one you need.
