Power in the Holy Spirit: I Love Acts in the Bible, it Proves We All Can Have Miracle Producing Powers!
The Church throughout all Judea, Galilee, and Samaria
was at peace.
She was being built up and walked in the fear of the Lord,
and with the consolation of the Holy Spirit she grew in numbers.
As Peter was passing through every region,
he went down to the holy ones living in Lydda.
There he found a man named Aeneas,
who had been confined to bed for eight years, for he was paralyzed.
Peter said to him,
"Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you. Get up and make your bed."
He got up at once.
And all the inhabitants of Lydda and Sharon saw him,
and they turned to the Lord.
Now in Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha
(which translated is Dorcas).
She was completely occupied with good deeds and almsgiving.
Now during those days she fell sick and died,
so after washing her, they laid her out in a room upstairs.
Since Lydda was near Joppa,
the disciples, hearing that Peter was there,
sent two men to him with the request,
"Please come to us without delay."
So Peter got up and went with them.
When he arrived, they took him to the room upstairs
where all the widows came to him weeping
and showing him the tunics and cloaks
that Dorcas had made while she was with them.
Peter sent them all out and knelt down and prayed.
Then he turned to her body and said, "Tabitha, rise up."
She opened her eyes, saw Peter, and sat up.
He gave her his hand and raised her up,
and when he had called the holy ones and the widows,
he presented her alive.
This became known all over Joppa,
and many came to believe in the Lord.
~Acts 9:31-42
Wow! There is power in the name of Jesus, power in His name through the Holy Spirit! Look what the disciples could do after Jesus was murdered on the cross! The Book of Acts proves that all God's people filled with the Holy Spirit can have this power too. There is power, miraculous power in the Holy Spirit! Do you believe? We need to be restored in Him, follow Jesus, we can have peace with Him! We can heal and cure and produce many miracles when we live with His Spirit in us! God gave us Jesus, Emmanuel, as an example of how to live, our model citizens of this Earth world. We need to follow Jesus. The authorities did not like that Jesus had this power. They had Him killed, but He proved them all wrong and showed their true evil. The same thing is happening today in government today, they know people have power through Jesus Christ. Them and so many have fallen for the god of this Earth satan and now have become his slaves, we need to be careful not to fall for him, we need to follow Jesus, let God work in you and us the power of the Holy Spirit to do what Peter and the other disciples did. There is power in the Holy Spirit! God has the final say! The miracles of God abound!
