Healing Ministry Grows the Church

Love for One Another Godly Love Among Believers Live in the light of God (Isaiah 2:5)    Confident Love   Acts 5:12-16 New International Version The Apostles Heal Many 12 The apostles performed many signs and wonders among the people. And all the believers used to meet together in Solomon’s Colonnade. 13 No one else dared join them, even though they were highly regarded by the people.14 Nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number. 15 As a result, people brought the sick into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that at least Peter’s shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by. 16 Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by impure spirits, and all of them were healed. For Reflection It was never magic! We don't know much about the "signs and wonders" the apostles performed. They attended the sick with the reckless abandon of their own health interests. They engaged "unclean" mentally tormented. The numbers of believers grew. Some, I imagine, came to see or experience this miraculous event. Because of the courage and humility with which the Apostles approach their commission, many left believing in the living healing loving God  Pray Pray so that you will engage others in courage and humility to advance God's will to heal our broken lives.
