Wetin you carry?
Acts 3:4-7 “Peter and John looked at him intently, and Peter said, “Look at us!” The lame man looked at them eagerly, expecting some money. But Peter said, “I don’t have any silver or gold for you. But I’ll give you what I have. In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, get up and walk!” Then Peter took the lame man by the right hand and helped him up. And as he did, the man’s feet and ankles were instantly healed and strengthened.
In the book of Acts of the Apostles 3:1-7, An undeniable miracle happened, how can we reproduce such?
Peter and John saw the lame man at the beautiful gate and though he was expecting a token from them, they gave him what they had; Healing through the name of Jesus Christ.
Apostle Peter knew he had something on his inside, which he gave, and when the healing happened, he ascribed all the glory to God, he was intentional about telling everyone that Christ did the miracle
The phrase: “That which I have” by Apostle Peter clearly indicates that for believers to do great signs and wonders on earth, we have to use that which God has deposited on the inside of us.
Remember that Christ in you is the hope of glory and He that is in you, is greater than he that is in the world (Colossians 1:27-28, 1 John 4:4)
So Peter and John knew they were God-containers (I.e God carriers)
Are you aware that as a believer you also carry the power to do unexplainable miracles? You also need to recognize this truth so you can begin to walk in this reality (Hosea 4:6)
All you need to attain the greatness you desire is inside of you, all you need to perform great signs and wonders is inside of you, all you need to excel and walk in righteousness has already been deposited inside of you.
You have the capacity to be great, it is on your inside, you only need to recognize and walk in it. Sometimes we don’t get to reach the inside of us to pull out this greatness until situation compels us to. You must know how to activate things inside of you.
Mark 16:17-18 says: You shall lay hands on the sick and they will recover and get well, Christ gave this promise, but the question is: Will you lay the hands?
God is not a man that He should lie, if He made a promise, He will surely fulfil it, therefore act in faith! (Numbers 23:17)
There are many great works resident in you that God is waiting for you to activate, what do you need to activate these great works? You need Faith. Faith is the currency you need to activate the greatness inside of you.
The book of Ecclesiastes 12:13 highlights a number of things about life, but at the end, it says: the conclusion of all things is Fear God and do His will.
Importantly, when you begin to see undeniable proofs of God’s greatness inside of you, you must point people to God, be sure to tell people that Jesus Christ did the miracles and don’t take glory for it.
