BEAUTIFUL GATE


 BEAUTIFUL GATE



Dear children of God today we are going to enter into a beautiful gate to see the Lord Jesus’ doing, and Peter and John exalting Holy Name of our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. In Jerusalem temple there are nine gates are leading to the main entrance of Holy place. Eight gates are 45 ft height and women entrance is 75 ft height. The main gate of women entrance is called beautiful gate. This main beautiful entrance was made by the Corinth city bronze pillars. This beautiful gate entrance was towards east. The early morning sun beams will reflect in the bronze gate and glows like a flaming fire looks beautiful. So this main entrance gate was called beautiful gate. The main entrance people were gathering for prayer three times in a day.






At age of forty:- many people were gathered for prayers and others were looking for helps and alms from the people who were coming to the prayers. A man lame from birth was being carried, whom they laid daily at the beautiful gate in the temple, to ask alms of those entering the temple. He never entered into the temple for prayer or worships the Lord God until his forty years. At age of forty he never expected healing, but he expected only alms for his living. A lame person can do only to beg the people for his living on those days. So he asked the people alms to help his living. If we were in that condition we curse our birth, and our unable condition. But his duty on everyday to come to the temple’s main entrance called beautiful gate to beg alms from the people those who come for prayer. Seeing Peter and John about to go into the temple, he asked to receive alms. No need to wait up to forty years or more, today the healing power of Jesus Christ of Nazareth is available for us at gate of beautiful gate. Come to beautiful gate and look at Jesus Christ, he will heal us.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

NO SILVER AND GOLD:-  Peter directed his gaze at him, as did John, and said, “ look at us “and he fixed his attention on them, expecting to receive something from them. But Peter said, “I have no silver and gold” but what I do have I give to you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, rise up and walk! And he took him by his right hand and raised him up, immediately his feet and ankles were made strong. He was leaping up, he stood and began to walk, and enter the temple with them, walking and leaping and praising God. At age of forty, the first time in his life, he entered in to the temple praising God and worshiped him. Neither silver nor gold could not give healing to walk, to leap or to praise God. But only the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth could give him complete healing to walk, to leap and to praise God. Dear friends neither silver nor gold can heal our lame by birth, but the Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Let us look to Jesus Christ who can heal our lame and give strength to our legs and ankles. He is the God of healing let us look unto him today; he will perform a miracle in our life.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



PETER AND JOHN EXALTED THE NAME OF JESUS CHRIST:- All the people saw him walking and praising God, and recognized him as the one who sat at beautiful gate of the temple, asking for alms. They were filled with wonder and amazement at what had happened to him. Men of Israel, why do you wonder at this, or why do you stare at us, as though by our own power or piety we have made him walk? The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob, the God of our fathers, glorified his servant Jesus, whom you delivered over and denied in the presence of Pilate, when he had decided to release him. But you denied the Holy and righteous one and asked for a murderer to be granted to you, and you killed the author of life, whom God raised from the dead. To this we are witnesses. His name- by faith in his name- has made this man strong whom you see and know, and the faith that is through Jesus has given the man this perfect health in the presence of you all.

 









Peter filled with the Holy Spirit and said to them, ‘ rulers of the people and elders, if we are being examined today concerning a good deed done to a crippled man, by what means this man has been healed. Let it be known to all of you and to all the people of Israel that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead- by him this man is standing before you well. This Jesus is the stone that was rejected by you, the builders, which has become the cornerstone. And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.

Dear friends exalt Jesus’ name, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved. Through this miracle the beautiful gate really shone by the name of Jesus Christ. No more lame, no more weakness, no more crying for living, but now only praising God with walking, leaping and praising God whom healed him. Let us enter into the beautiful gate with praising and exalting Jesus’ name who gives healing and salvation.
