PRESENTATION OUTLINE
“Where God’s Power Flows”
Acts 3:1-3
“One day Peter and John were going up to the Temple at the time of prayer—at three in the afternoon. 2 Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the Temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the Temple courts. 3 When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money.
Acts 3:4-6
4 Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, “Look at us!” 5 So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. 6 Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.”
Acts 3:7-8
7 Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong. 8 He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the Temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God.
Acts 3:9-10
9 When all the people saw him walking and praising God, 10 they recognized him as the same man who used to sit begging at the Temple gate called Beautiful, and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.
In what kind of environment WILL God’s power FLOW?
Psalm 62:11: “God has spoken once, Twice I have heard this: That power belongs to God.” (NIV)
The POWER of God is not something God HAS: it is something God IS!
I. GOD’S POWER FLOWS WHERE HE IS!
II. GOD’S POWER FLOWS WHERE THERE IS EXPECTANCY!
"Attempt great things for God, EXPECT GREAT THINGS FROM GOD!” QUOTE: "Many Christians estimate difficulties in the light of their own resources, and thus attempt little and often fail in the little they attempt. All God’s giants have been weak men who did great things for God because they reckoned on His power and presence with them." (J.Hudson Taylor)
“HOW DO YOU THINK GOD FEELS WHEN WE COME BEFORE HIM WITHOUT A SENSE OF EXPECTANCY?”
III. GOD’S POWER FLOWS WHERE KINGDOM AUTHORITY IS RECOGNIZED!
IV. GOD’S POWER FLOWS WHERE HE WILL RECEIVE THE GLORY!
