Acts 3:9

“And all the people saw [the lame beggar that was healed by Jesus] walking and praising God.” (NASB)

STRONGS HEBREW/GREEK ORIGINS

“And all the people saw (eido or oida: knew, beheld, perceived) [the lame beggar that was healed by Jesus] walking and praising (aineo: extol, to sing praises in honor to) God.”

SUMMARY

And all the people saw and knew that the beggar who was once lame, that had been healed by Jesus, was walking and singing praises God.

MEDITATION

I believe that the transformation that takes place in us after we meet Jesus Christ should be such as this. The healing that the beggar received was so dramatic that he could not contain his praises! He was literally made a new creation as he walked for the first time. Do people take notice that you have been freed and delivered? Do people recognize the ongoing work of Jesus, The Christ in your life? May we live a life of offering praise and honor to the LORD for all of the great things He has done for us! May we walk as one who is free, rejoicing moment by moment in our wonderful Saviour!
