Perfect Answers
“It is the name of Jesus which has strengthened this man whom you see and know; and the faith which comes through Him has given him this perfect health in the presence of you all.”—Acts 3:16 NASB
When God intervened in the life of this lame man, he did not become a little better. He was given “perfect health,” even though he “had been lame from birth” (v. 2).
Here was a man who had some hope, but only limited expectations. As he saw Peter and John going into the temple, he just asked them for money (v. 3). He hoped for a little money, but never considered that he could be healed and made whole.
But Peter and John were not limited. Filled with faith, they knew God could do all things. He could perform astonishing miracles, no matter what the need. Peter’s command was simple and direct: “In the name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, walk!” The results were immediate. “Leaping up, he stood and began to walk … walking and praising God” (vs. 6–8).
Sometimes when thinking about our problems, we can limit God. We can forget His power. But the Bible reminds us that He has no limits. He can do amazing things, just like He did in the life of that lame man. He is the God who can provide “perfect health,” miracles, and wonders.
Don’t limit God, but seek His perfect answers for you. Remember that He is “able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think” (Ephesians 3:20). Have the faith to pray with bold anticipation.
