Everywhere we turn we seem to find sickness and disease, cancer, heart disease, and diabetes have become common place, the following is a brief read about a time when the power of God's Word became common place.
Acts 5:12 (NKJV)
And through the hands of the apostles many signs and wonders were done among the people. And they were all with one accord in Solomon's Porch.
John 14:12 (NKJV)
"Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father."
The apostles were true believer's!
Acts 5:14 & 15 (NKJV)
And believers were increasingly added to the Lord, multitudes of both men and women, so that they brought the sick out into the streets and laid them on beds and couches, that at least the shadow of Peter passing by might fall on some of them.
Notice that there is a trace of doubt among the people, not to different from the modern day body of Christ.
Acts 5:16 (NKJV)
Also a multitude gathered from the surrounding cities to Jerusalem, bringing sick people and those who were tormented by unclean spirits, and they were all healed.
Just like the people of the Book of Acts our faith will grow as we hear God's Truth, observe His power, and rejoice in the testimony of others.
Mark 9:23 (NKJV)
Jesus said to him, "If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes."
Abba Father Your Word is Truth may we truly walk in it and be a testimony that brings many to You, because we have set our love upon You, You grant us long life and salvation, we are over comers with our faith, we defeat the world and all of its evil because we believe in Your Son Jesus Christ, and we conquer simply because You love us; it is in the name of our Lord and our Savior Christ Jesus that we pray. Amen.
