Peter heals a lame beggar

One day Peter and John were going up to the temple at the time of prayer – at three in the afternoon.

By faith in the name of Jesus, this man whom you see and know was made strong. It is Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through him that has completely healed him, as you can all see.

If we are being called to account today for an act of kindness shown to a man who was lame and are being asked how he was healed,

then know this, you and all the people of Israel: it is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed.

But since they could see the man who had been healed standing there with them, there was nothing they could say.

For the man who was miraculously healed was over forty years old.

Stretch out your hand to heal and perform signs and wonders through the name of your holy servant Jesus.’

The apostles heal many

The apostles performed many signs and wonders among the people. And all the believers used to meet together in Solomon’s Colonnade.

Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing those who were ill and those tormented by impure spirits, and all of them were healed.

For with shrieks, impure spirits came out of many, and many who were paralysed or lame were healed.

‘Aeneas,’ Peter said to him, ‘Jesus Christ heals you. Get up and roll up your mat.’ Immediately Aeneas got up.

how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him.

He listened to Paul as he was speaking. Paul looked directly at him, saw that he had faith to be healed

His father was ill in bed, suffering from fever and dysentery. Paul went in to see him and, after prayer, placed his hands on him and healed him.

For this people’s heart has become calloused; they hardly hear with their ears, and they have closed their eyes. Otherwise they might see with their eyes, hear with their ears, understand with their hearts and turn, and I would heal them.”
