Are you praying, showing up, and doing all the right things—but still not seeing the breakthrough?
In this powerful message, Jaime Luce revisits the healing of the lame man at the temple gate in Acts 3 and reveals a critical truth about miracles: where you set your gaze determines what you’re ready to receive.
Too often, we bring our needs to God while still focusing on the problem. But the miracle came when the man fixed his eyes with expectation. God is still calling us to refocus, realign, and reawaken our faith so we can receive more than we even knew to ask for.
Whether you're in a season of waiting, stuck in spiritual routine, or just needing a reset in your faith, this episode will help you posture your heart for breakthrough.
What You’ll Learn:
- Why spiritual routine isn’t enough without expectation
- The connection between obedience and supernatural strength
- How to shift your gaze from the problem to the promise
- What to do when God’s answer doesn’t match your request
- How to walk—and leap—into your miracle
