A Notable Miracle

Just recently, as I was reading Acts 4, a phrase jumped out at me. I had never really taken time to consider it before. 

To get the full picture, remember that in Acts 3, Peter and John were walking into the temple when a lame man asked for money. Instead of silver or gold, Peter and John were used by God to heal the man of his lame condition. 

In Acts 4, then, the apostles stand before a group of accusers, officials who are not happy with them for their constant practice of preaching the gospel. Yet, the officials have no answer for this “notable miracle”! 

The Bible teaches us that God never changes. Therefore, the same God who performed the “notable miracle” of Acts 3 wants to do the same kind of thing for you and me. The miracle described in this chapter was an impossible occurrence done by improbable men, yet it happened. 

What impossible thing does God want to do through you and me today? Ask him to do the impossible through you.
