There was a day that Peter and John went to the temple at the
third hour, which was the hour of prayer and sacrifice. As they
were walking there was a certain man lame from his mother's womb
laying there. He spent all of his life being carried to the Gate
Beautiful where he begged for a living every day. As Peter and
John walked by that man looked up to them as if to receive
something from them. Then Peter fastened his eyes on him, and
John said, "Look on us." That was the moment the power of the
Holy Spirit was moving.  


"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." Can't you just see all the people stopping and watching
what was happening? These people were well acquainted with the
lame man. They must have been stunned to hear these words spoken
to him. What is more, the name of Jesus Christ, which was a name
most of the people opposed.  


I believe that these two men Peter and John were men who were
ever looking to Jesus. Their eyes always fastened on Him.
Therefore were they able to say "look on us." They were ready-men
who were alive in Christ. That lame man was taken by his right
hand and arose, then leaped up, walked, and followed them into
the temple. No one ever went into the temple that way, but this
man did. It was also said of him that "he held them, and "all the
people saw him walking and leaping and praising God."  


This is such a depiction of true service and discipleship in the
Lord. If you fasten your eyes on the Lord then you will be always
ready in a moment to fasten them on the person Jesus sees in your
day to day life. If you do not fasten your eyes on the Lord, then
do not expect to be much use to Him. You will only be a little
trickle of water in the dry cups of the thirsty, rather than a
life-giving stream of His loving mercy flooding upon their dry
grounds.  


“Does it make sense to pray for guidance about the future if we
are not obeying in the thing that lies before us today? How many
momentous events in Scripture depended on one person's seemingly
small act of obedience! Rest assured: Do what God tells you to do
now, and, depend upon it, you will be shown what to do next.” ―
