The results were assured.
Peter never flinched.
He never doubted.
I don’t believe that He hesitated for a moment.
He told the lame man to "rise up and walk."
It would have been an absolute disaster to Peter and John if that man remained lame.
But Peter knew the results were assured.
He knew he had the compassion.
He knew that he was in obedience.
He knew he had the right source ("In the name of Jesus").
He knew that he had the ability.
The reason that many Christians doubt and fail to receive the ability to be a blessing to others is because their lives are not in obedience to Christ.
