Ugliness Turn at the Beautiful Gate

From Our Pastor's Desk

The tide of shame & ugliness turned for the lame man at the Beautiful Gate We read his story in Acts 3:1-10. Daily it was a routine to drop him off at the Beautiful Gate  in Jerusalem.

Day after day, it was the same  routine; begging because he had no choice  and not fulfilling his destiny. 

This man was  in the temple of God, the most important place  in Jerusalem and he never participated nor  enjoyed the blessings that came out of the  temple.

He was only a spectator of the blessings happening in other people's lives. He  was a spectator in the affairs of life.  People  in the temple heard messages, all he heard was  noise.

Others  were blessed  but he received  abuses, insults,  shame & dusts. He was an ugly sight at the Beautiful Gate. But, begging was not the final outcome for this lame man at the beautiful gate.



Beloved, whatever the current situation, shame and reproach, disgrace and despair are not your final outcome, nor your expected end. Every ugliness is turning around to beauty for you, in Jesus Name. Jeremiah 29:11, the Lord says, “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end"

You will have good success this 2018. 

Remain blessed. 
Shalom.
