They Also Recognized Them

As Men

Who Had Been With Jesus

Scripture

Acts 4

¹⁰ Let me clearly state to all of you and to all the people of Israel that he was healed by the powerful name of Jesus Christ the Nazarene, the man you crucified but whom God raised from the dead. ¹¹ For Jesus is the one referred to in the Scriptures, where it says,

‘The stone that you builders rejected
    has now become the cornerstone.’

¹² There is salvation in no one else! God has given no other name under heaven by which we must be saved.”

¹³ The members of the council were amazed when they saw the boldness of Peter and John, for they could see that they were ordinary men with no special training in the Scriptures. They also recognized them as men who had been with Jesus.
 

Observation

 I don’t know about you but I want the boldness of Peter and John! I also want people to say about me what these religious leaders said about Peter and John, “They recognized them as men who had been with Jesus.”

I want people to see Jesus when they see me! I know that is not always the case, but it is the desire of my heart. How about you?

Application

I want to be filled with the Holy Spirit today so those I come in contact with today will see Jesus in me.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, it is my desire to live for You today. Show me anything in my life that is not pleasing to You so I can confess it. I want to be totally controlled and filled with Your Holy Spirit today. Direct my path today. Guide me today. Put on my heart the most important things to do. Put on my heart the people that You want me to talk to. Today I want to bring You honor and glory! Help my day today not be about me but about You.
