Summary: Followers of Jesus, under the leading of the Spirit, seize the moment to act in ministry.

Seize the Moment

Acts 3:1-11

Miracle---Proclamation---Souls Saved---Persecution---Church Prays---Church Receives More Power---Another Miracle

I. Peter Stopped

Jewish day consisted of 12 hours

Last Hour of prayer in the Jewish day was the ninth hour or 3:00 P.M.

While others hurriedly pass by Peter and John STOP

They “fix” their gaze on this man--he has their total attention!

II. Peter Spoke

Look at Us

In expectancy the man looks toward Peter and John

“I don’t possess silver and gold” BUT…

Peter gave the man what he needed not what he asked for

Peter gave him Jesus

III. Peter Seized the Moment

And put action behind the words

Peter took him by the right hand and lifted him up

It was then that the physical manifestation of healing took place

This miracle led to proclamation, proclamation led to conversion
