Acts 3 tells the story of a lame man, a man who had never walked a day in his life. He was healed after an encounter with Peter and John. The man was leaping and praising God, and the people in the temple were astonished at what they were seeing. The man was 40 when he experienced the miracle. This miracle shows us that no matter how long you have been dealing with a challenge and regardless of whether it is a physical challenge, financial challenge, or any type of challenge, God can turn it around. People sometimes have a tendency to put a time limit on God. If they receive a turnaround or a breakthrough by a certain time, they let go of what they were believing God for. We cannot be like that. We must be like Jacob, who wrestled an angel. He told the angel ‘I will not let you go until you bless me’ and wrestled with him all night. We must be just as persistent. We must have bull-dog kind of faith. We hold on until we get what we came for. Don’t forget Galatians 6:7, “And let us not be weary in well doing; for in due season you shall reap, if you faint not”. There is a due season for all of us, and if we continue to hold fast to our profession of faith, there will be a performance.
