Give what you have.
- Pastor Ashish Mathews
Acts 3:6
Then Peter said, “Silver and gold I do not have, but what I do have I give you: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk.”
Believer, do you know what you have? Peter and John knew what they had. You are so powerful in Christ. Believers are destroyed not because they don't have the inheritance, but because of ignorance - they don't know what they have.
You are free and you have the right, the authority and the power to set the captives free. A man who was lame - captive by that condition - for more than forty years was set free by a believer who knew what he possessed and knew how to use it. Glory to God! You are a son of the Most High God and whom the son sets free in the name of Jesus is free indeed. Jesus gave us His name and commanded us to preach the Gospel, to cast out devils and to lays hands on the sick and they shall recover.
Thank God Peter gave what He had to the lame man. Will you give what you have to the people around you who are in captivity? You are more powerful than their captivity. Use your authority in the name of Jesus and set people free. Your simple act of kindness can change the lives of people forever. It may be a simple work for Peter but the lame man's life was changed forever. Don't be selfish, give what you have! Freely you have received, freely give! Go on with Jesus!
