Godly Appointments!

Did you know everyday if you are a follower of Jesus, that He has appointments for you to fulfill that only you can do? Well He does and that is why we must be in tune with the Holy Spirit to do the job that God has in store for us each day!



Look at this from the bible:



Acts 3:1-10

A Lame Man Healed

3 Now Peter and John went up together to the temple at the hour of prayer, the ninth hour. 2 And a certain man lame from his mother’s womb was carried, whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms from those who entered the temple; 3 who, seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, asked for alms. 4 And fixing his eyes on him, with John, Peter said, “Look at us.” 5 So he gave them his attention, expecting to receive something from them. 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.” 7 And he took him by the right hand and lifted him up, and immediately his feet and ankle bones received strength. 8 So he, leaping up, stood and walked and entered the temple with them—walking, leaping, and praising God. 9 And all the people saw him walking and praising God. 10 Then they knew that it was he who sat begging alms at the Beautiful Gate of the temple; and they were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him.



Peter and John most likely had been through this area many times. Matter of fact they probably had seen this man before, He been there for a long time. The difference this day was Peter and John were in tune with the Holy Spirit and on fire for God. It was a divine appointment from God! The man wanted money but the disciples gave him something much more valuable than money, the healed him and gave him Jesus! Many seen the power of God that day and were amazed.



You see we have appointments everyday too to share Jesus. We have power through the Holy Spirit we never tap into. Being obedient to the Holy Spirits promptings are vital to our walk with God. Some examples may be...feeding the poor, paying a bill for someone in need, knowing a co-worked is hurting and praying with them, sharing Jesus with whoever will listen, praying over someone who is sick. These are just a few of the things God will guide us to do if we are available to the promptings of the Holy Spirit!



So are you ready to be used by God today? Listen! If you are willing He WILL use you!
