Healing Passages (2)

All of the New Testament Healing Passages (2)


Matthew 14:14 When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick.
Jesus had compassion on people and He healed all the sick who came to Him, all throughout His ministry. His compassion and healing continue to this day.

Matthew 14:34 When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret.Matthew 14:35 And when the men of that place recognized Jesus, they sent word to all the surrounding country. People brought all their sick to himMatthew 14:36 and begged him to let the sick just touch the edge of his cloak, and all who touched him were healed.

Mark 6:53 When they had crossed over, they landed at Gennesaret and anchored there.Mark 6:54 As soon as they got out of the boat, people recognized Jesus. Mark 6:55 They ran throughout that whole region and carried the sick on mats to wherever they heard he was. Mark 6:56 And wherever he went–into villages, towns or countryside–they placed the sick in the marketplaces. They begged him to let them touch even the edge of his cloak, and all who touched him were healed.

This is another example of putting faith into action for healing, and it is also another example of the laying-on of hands in reverse (people were laying hands on Jesus’ cloak as a point of contact for their faith). Both of these are just as true and valid today.

Matthew 15:21 Leaving that place, Jesus withdrew to the region of Tyre and Sidon. Matthew 15:22 A Canaanite woman from that vicinity came to him, crying out, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on me! My daughter is suffering terribly from demon-possession.” Matthew 15:23 Jesus did not answer a word. So his disciples came to him and urged him, “Send her away, for she keeps crying out after us.” Matthew 15:24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.” Matthew 15:25 The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said. Matthew 15:26 He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to their dogs.” Matthew 15:27 “Yes, Lord,” she said, “but even the dogs eat the crumbs that fall from their masters’ table.” Matthew 15:28 Then Jesus answered, “Woman, you have great faith! Your request is granted.” And her daughter was healed from that very hour.

Mark 7:25 In fact, as soon as she heard about him, a woman whose little daughter was possessed by an evil spirit came and fell at his feet. Mark 7:26 The woman was a Greek, born in Syrian Phoenicia. She begged Jesus to drive the demon out of her daughter. Mark 7:27 “First let the children eat all they want,” he told her, “for it is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to their dogs.” Mark 7:28 “Yes, Lord,” she replied, “but even the dogs under the table eat the children’s crumbs.” Mark 7:29 Then he told her, “For such a reply, you may go; the demon has left your daughter.” Mark 7:30 She went home and found her child lying on the bed, and the demon gone.

Bread was a staple of life in the first century, meaning that it was a standard part of meals in those days. This is why the word “bread” is used in so many illustrations in the Gospels. Notice that Jesus described healing and deliverance as the “bread” of the children of Israel (the children of the Old Covenant). In other words, Jesus considered healing to be as important for them as bread was important in their daily meals. As Christians, we are under the New Covenant, which is founded upon better promises than the Old Covenant  (Hebrews 8:6). If healing and deliverance were “bread” to the children of the Old Covenant, how can we have “better” promises if healing and deliverance are not available to us today? That would be worse than the promises of the Old Covenant!

Also, the principle of persistence is demonstrated here. We need to be persistent when ministering or receiving healing. We do not know everything there is to know about divine healing, so if one thing does not work then we need to keep trying other things and being persistent. If we are unable to minister healing to people, then they should allow other people to lay hands on them because their persistence will ultimately pay off. Only God knows why the healing is delayed, but He honors persistence.

Matthew 15:29 Jesus left there and went along the Sea of Galilee. Then he went up on a mountainside and sat down. Matthew 15:30 Great crowds came to him, bringing the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute and many others, and laid them at his feet; and he healed them. Matthew 17:14 When they came to the crowd, a man approached Jesus and knelt before him. Matthew 17:15 “Lord, have mercy on my son,” he said. “He has seizures and is suffering greatly. He often falls into the fire or into the water. Matthew 17:16 I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him.” Matthew 17:17 “O unbelieving and perverse generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.” Matthew 17:18 Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of the boy, and he was healed from that moment. Matthew 17:19 Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?” Matthew 17:20 He replied, “Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

Mark 9:17 A man in the crowd answered, “Teacher, I brought you my son, who is possessed by a spirit that has robbed him of speech. Mark 9:18 Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to drive out the spirit, but they could not.” Mark 9:19 “O unbelieving generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy to me.” Mark 9:20 So they brought him. When the spirit saw Jesus, it immediately threw the boy into a convulsion. He fell to the ground and rolled around, foaming at the mouth. Mark 9:21 Jesus asked the boy’s father, “How long has he been like this?” “From childhood,” he answered. Mark 9:22 “It has often thrown him into fire or water to kill him. But if you can do anything, take pity on us and help us.” Mark 9:23 “‘If you can’?” said Jesus. “Everything is possible for him who believes.” Mark 9:24 Immediately the boy’s father exclaimed, “I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!” Mark 9:25 When Jesus saw that a crowd was running to the scene, he rebuked the evil spirit. “You deaf and mute spirit,” he said, “I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.” Mark 9:26 The spirit shrieked, convulsed him violently and came out. The boy looked so much like a corpse that many said, “He’s dead.” Mark 9:27 But Jesus took him by the hand and lifted him to his feet, and he stood up.Mark 9:28 After Jesus had gone indoors, his disciples asked him privately, “Why couldn’t we driv 

Luke 9:39 A spirit seizes him and he suddenly screams; it throws him into convulsions so that he foams at the mouth. It scarcely ever leaves him and is destroying him. Luke 9:40 I begged your disciples to drive it out, but they could not.” Luke 9:41 “O unbelieving and perverse generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you and put up with you? Bring your son here.” Luke 9:42 Even while the boy was coming, the demon threw him to the ground in a convulsion. But Jesus rebuked the evil spirit, healed the boy and gave him back to his father.

The disciples, who had done many healings and deliverances by this time (see Mark 6:7-13), were unable to cast out this demon. Jesus explained that “This kind can come out only by prayer” (some manuscripts say, “by prayer and fasting”). Jesus said that prayer was needed for casting out this kind of spirit, but notice that He did not pray for the demon to go. He rebuked it and commanded it to go. In other words, Jesus led a lifestyle of prayer and fasting which put Him in the position to be able to cast this demon out. Another thing to note in this passage is that the disciples were unable to bring about the healing because they did not have adequate knowledge concerning how to cast this kind of demon out. This holds true even today. The more we learn about healing, the more knowledge and experience we acquire, the more people we will see being healed.

Matthew 19:1 When Jesus had finished saying these things, he left Galilee and went into the region of Judea to the other side of the Jordan. Matthew 19:2 Large crowds followed him, and he healed them there.


Matthew 20:29 As Jesus and his disciples were leaving Jericho, a large crowd followed him.Matthew 20:30 Two blind men were sitting by the roadside, and when they heard that Jesus was going by, they shouted, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!” Matthew 20:31 The crowd rebuked them and told them to be quiet, but they shouted all the louder, “Lord, Son of David, have mercy on us!” Matthew 20:32 Jesus stopped and called them. “What do you want me to do for you?” he asked. Matthew 20:33 “Lord,” they answered, “we want our sight.” Matthew 20:34 Jesus had compassion on them and touched their eyes. Immediately they received their sight and followed him.

Mark 10:49 Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” So they called to the blind man, “Cheer up! On your feet! He’s calling you.” Mark 10:50 Throwing his cloak aside, he jumped to his feet and came to Jesus. Mark 10:51 “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked him. The blind man said, “Rabbi, I want to see.” Mark 10:52 “Go,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.” Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road.

Luke 18:35 As Jesus approached Jericho, a blind man was sitting by the roadside begging.Luke 18:36 When he heard the crowd going by, he asked what was happening. Luke 18:37 They told him, “Jesus of Nazareth is passing by.” Luke 18:38 He called out, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Luke 18:39 Those who led the way rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” Luke 18:40 Jesus stopped and ordered the man to be brought to him. When he came near, Jesus asked him, Luke 18:41 “What do you want me to do for you?” “Lord, I want to see,” he replied. Luke 18:42 Jesus said to him, “Receive your sight; your faith has healed you.” Luke 18:43 Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus, praising God. When all the people saw it, they also praised God.

Another important principle is being demonstrated here. Notice that Jesus interviewed the blind men in order to determine what healing they needed. This is equally important when we are ministering healing today. We need to determine what the physical problem is, what the medical diagnosis is, how the problem happened (car accident, etc.), where the pain or affliction is in the body, and so on. This information helps us to lay hands on or near the actual affliction and to command healing for the specific problem. Notice that Jesus laid hands on the specific area of the men’s affliction, their eyes.

Matthew 21:14 The blind and the lame came to him at the temple, and he healed them.


Mark 1:23 Just then a man in their synagogue who was possessed by an evil spirit cried out, Mark 1:24 “What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are–the Holy One of God!” Mark 1:25 “Be quiet!” said Jesus sternly. “Come out of him!” Mark 1:26 The evil spirit shook the man violently and came out of him with a shriek.

Luke 4:33 In the synagogue there was a man possessed by a demon, an evil spirit. He cried out at the top of his voice, Luke 4:34 “Ha! What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are–the Holy One of God!” Luke 4:35 “Be quiet!” Jesus said sternly. “Come out of him!” Then the demon threw the man down before them all and came out without injuring him.

Mark 3:9 Because of the crowd he told his disciples to have a small boat ready for him, to keep the people from crowding him. Mark 3:10 For he had healed many, so that those with diseases were pushing forward to touch him. Mark 3:11 Whenever the evil spirits saw him, they fell down before him and cried out, “You are the Son of God.”

Mark 7:32 There some people brought to him a man who was deaf and could hardly talk, and they begged him to place his hand on the man. Mark 7:33 After he took him aside, away from the crowd, Jesus put his fingers into the man’s ears. Then he spit and touched the man’s tongue. Mark 7:34 He looked up to heaven and with a deep sigh said to him, “Ephphatha!” (which means, “Be opened!”). Mark 7:35 At this, the man’s ears were opened, his tongue was loosened and he began to speak plainly.

The people knew that Jesus healed by the laying-on of hands, so they begged Him to place His hands on the deaf mute person. Jesus still heals by the laying-on of hands, only it is our hands that He uses, since we are His body here on earth. Notice that Jesus laid His hands on the specific areas which needed healing. Even today we find that healing often works best when hands are laid on or near the afflicted area of the body. Also note that Jesus did not pray for the healing to take place, He commanded the healing. Finally, notice that Jesus first took the man away from the crowd, away from any doubt and unbelief. These same principles of healing are just as valid today.

Mark 8:22 They came to Bethsaida, and some people brought a blind man and begged Jesus to touch him. Mark 8:23 He took the blind man by the hand and led him outside the village. When he had spit on the man’s eyes and put his hands on him, Jesus asked, “Do you see anything?” Mark 8:24 He looked up and said, “I see people; they look like trees walking around.” Mark 8:25 Once more Jesus put his hands on the man’s eyes. Then his eyes were opened, his sight was restored, and he saw everything clearly.

Many of the principles of healing which we have been seeing are demonstrated here. Removing the person from an atmosphere of possible doubt and unbelief, laying hands on the specific area of affliction, asking questions to determine if further healing is required, and laying hands again to complete the healing. This is another case where the person did not get healed or delivered the first time, even though it was Jesus doing the healing or deliverance. Persistence is important when ministering healing.

Luke 5:15 Yet the news about him spread all the more, so that crowds of people came to hear him and to be healed of their sicknesses.

Luke 6:18 who had come to hear him and to be healed of their diseases. Those troubled by evil spirits were cured, Luke 6:19 and the people all tried to touch him, because power was coming from him and healing them all.

Luke 7:2-10 (see Matthew 8:5-13)


Luke 7:11 Soon afterward, Jesus went to a town called Nain, and his disciples and a large crowd went along with him. Luke 7:12 As he approached the town gate, a dead person was being carried out–the only son of his mother, and she was a widow. And a large crowd from the town was with her. Luke 7:13 When the Lord saw her, his heart went out to her and he said, “Don’t cry.” Luke 7:14 Then he went up and touched the coffin, and those carrying it stood still. He said, “Young man, I say to you, get up!” Luke 7:15 The dead man sat up and began to talk, and Jesus gave him back to his mother.

Luke 9:10 When the apostles returned, they reported to Jesus what they had done. Then he took them with him and they withdrew by themselves to a town called Bethsaida, Luke 9:11 but the crowds learned about it and followed him. He welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and healed those who needed healing.

Luke 10:1 After this the Lord appointed seventy-two others and sent them two by two ahead of him to every town and place where he was about to go. Luke 10:9 Heal the sick who are there and tell them, ‘The kingdom of God is near you.’ Luke 10:17 The seventy-two returned with joy and said, “Lord, even the demons submit to us in your name.” Luke 10:18 He replied, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Luke 10:19 I have given you authority to trample on snakes and scorpions and to overcome all the power of the enemy; nothing will harm you. Luke 10:20 However, do not rejoice that the spirits submit to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”

Earlier, Jesus had sent out the Twelve with the instruction to preach the Good News of the kingdom, to heal the sick, and to cast out demons (Luke 9:1-6). Now look whom Jesus is sending out: 72 ordinary believers! These average, ordinary believers were sent out to do exactly what the apostles had been sent out to do.

Luke 13:10 On a Sabbath Jesus was teaching in one of the synagogues, Luke 13:11 and a woman was there who had been crippled by a spirit for eighteen years. She was bent over and could not straighten up at all. Luke 13:12 When Jesus saw her, he called her forward and said to her, “Woman, you are set free from your infirmity.” Luke 13:13 Then he put his hands on her, and immediately she straightened up and praised God. Luke 13:14 Indignant because Jesus had healed on the Sabbath, the synagogue ruler said to the people, “There are six days for work. So come and be healed on those days, not on the Sabbath.”

First of all, notice that demons cause physical afflictions. Today we would probably diagnose this woman as having scoliosis or something and do surgery on her, when what is needed is a deliverance. Notice the reaction of the religious leaders. They were indignant when Jesus did something which did not conform to their doctrines. When you step out in faith and claim that Jesus still heals today by the laying-on of hands, some people will be indignant, so expect such reactions. Love them anyway!

Luke 17:11 Now on his way to Jerusalem, Jesus traveled along the border between Samaria and Galilee. Luke 17:12 As he was going into a village, ten men who had leprosy met him. They stood at a distance Luke 17:13 and called out in a loud voice, “Jesus, Master, have pity on us!” Luke 17:14 When he saw them, he said, “Go, show yourselves to the priests.” And as they went, they were cleansed. Luke 17:15 One of them, when he saw he was healed, came back, praising God in a loud voice. Luke 17:16 He threw himself at Jesus’ feet and thanked him–and he was a Samaritan. Luke 17:17 Jesus asked, “Were not all ten cleansed? Where are the other nine? Luke 17:18 Was no one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?” Luke 17:19 Then he said to him, “Rise and go; your faith has made you well.”

Notice that the ten lepers were not instantly healed by Jesus. They were healed “as they went.” The same principle applies today, because a few people are instantly healed while most people’s healing takes longer, and is more gradual.

Luke 22:49 When Jesus’ followers saw what was going to happen, they said, “Lord, should we strike with our swords?” Luke 22:50 And one of them struck the servant of the high priest, cutting off his right ear. Luke 22:51 But Jesus answered, “No more of this!” And he touched the man’s ear and healed him.

John 4:46 Once more he visited Cana in Galilee, where he had turned the water into wine. And there was a certain royal official whose son lay sick at Capernaum. John 4:47 When this man heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea, he went to him and begged him to come and heal his son, who was close to death. John 4:48 “Unless you people see miraculous signs and wonders,” Jesus told him, “you will never believe.” John 4:49 The royal official said, “Sir, come down before my child dies.” John 4:50 Jesus replied, “You may go. Your son will live.” The man took Jesus at his word and departed. John 4:51 While he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was living. John 4:52 When he inquired as to the time when his son got better, they said to him, “The fever left him yesterday at the seventh hour.” John 4:53 Then the father realized that this was the exact time at which Jesus had said to him, “Your son will live.” So he and all his household believed.

The man “took Jesus at his word.” We also need to take Jesus at His Word, because He cannot lie. In the Great Commission Jesus said that those who believe will lay hands on the sick, so we must take Him at His Word and obey Him.

John 5:2 Now there is in Jerusalem near the Sheep Gate a pool, which in Aramaic is called Bethesda and which is surrounded by five covered colonnades. John 5:3 Here a great number of disabled people used to lie–the blind, the lame, the paralyzed. John 5:4 John 5:5 One who was there had been an invalid for thirty-eight years. John 5:6 When Jesus saw him lying there and learned that he had been in this condition for a long time, he asked him, “Do you want to get well?” John 5:7 “Sir,” the invalid replied, “I have no one to help me into the pool when the water is stirred. While I am trying to get in, someone else goes down ahead of me “. John 5:8 Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.” John 5:9 At once the man was cured; he picked up his mat and walked. The day on which this took place was a Sabbath.

John 6:1 Some time after this, Jesus crossed to the far shore of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias), John 6:2 and a great crowd of people followed him because they saw the miraculous signs he had performed on the sick.



John 7:21 Jesus said to them, “I did one miracle, and you are all astonished. John 7:22 Yet, because Moses gave you circumcision (though actually it did not come from Moses, but from the patriarchs), you circumcise a child on the Sabbath. John 7:23 Now if a child can be circumcised on the Sabbath so that the law of Moses may not be broken, why are you angry with me for healing the whole man on the Sabbath?John 7:24 Stop judging by mere appearances, and make a right judgment.”

John 9:1 As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. John 9:2 His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” John 9:3 “Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the work of God might be displayed in his life. John 9:4 As long as it is day, we must do the work of him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work. John 9:5 While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.” John 9:6 Having said this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man’s eyes. John 9:7 “Go,” he told him, “wash in the Pool of Siloam” (this word means Sent). So the man went and washed, and came home seeing. John 9:24 A second time they [the Pharisees] summoned the man who had been blind. “Give glory to God, ” they said. “We know this man is a sinner.” John 9:25 He replied, “Whether he is a sinner or not, I don’t know. One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!”

This example demonstrates that Jesus healed in many different ways, always being sensitive to the leading of the Holy Spirit. We need to be just as sensitive to the Spirit when ministering healing today because God will sometimes tell us to do things which don’t make much sense. If God tells you to do something, do it, and the person will be healed. Notice that the Pharisees (the religious leaders) accused Jesus of being a sinner. Even today people will accuse you of all kinds of things when you step out in faith and make the claim that Jesus still heals by the laying-on of hands. Love them anyway and don’t let this deter you, because blessed are you when people ridicule you for the obedient works that you are doing in His Name (Matthew 5:11).

John 11:39 “Take away the stone,” he said. “But, Lord,” said Martha, the sister of the dead man, “by this time there is a bad odor, for he has been there four days.” John 11:40 Then Jesus said, “Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?” John 11:41 So they took away the stone. Then Jesus looked up and said, “Father, I thank you that you have heard me. John 11:42 I knew that you always hear me, but I said this for the benefit of the people standing here, that they may believe that you sent me.” John 11:43 When he had said this, Jesus called in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come out!” John 11:44 The dead man came out, his hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around his face. Jesus said to them, “Take off the grave clothes and let him go.”

Martha was a believer, but she had no faith in a “now” miracle. She believed that Jesus was the Christ, but she did not believe that He would do a miracle right then and there. Christians today believe that Jesus is the Christ, but they often do not believe that He will do a miracle right here and now. He will, if there is faith present.

Acts 3:2 Now a man crippled from birth was being carried to the temple gate called Beautiful, where he was put every day to beg from those going into the temple courts. Acts 3:3 When he saw Peter and John about to enter, he asked them for money. Acts 3:4 Peter looked straight at him, as did John. Then Peter said, “Look at us!” Acts 3:5 So the man gave them his attention, expecting to get something from them. Acts 3:6 Then Peter said, “Silver or gold I do not have, but what I have I give you. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk.” Acts 3:7 Taking him by the right hand, he helped him up, and instantly the man’s feet and ankles became strong. Acts 3:8 He jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple courts, walking and jumping, and praising God. Acts 3:16 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 given this complete healing to him, as you can all see.

When did the lame man’s feet and ankles become strong? When he put his faith into action. How was he healed? By Jesus’ name and the faith that comes through him. These principles are just as valid today.

Acts 5:14 Nevertheless, more and more men and women believed in the Lord and were added to their number. Acts 5:15 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. Acts 5:16 Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing their sick and those tormented by evil spirits, and all of them were healed.

Acts 8:6 When the crowds heard Philip and saw the miraculous signs he did, they all paid close attention to what he said. Acts 8:7 With shrieks, evil spirits came out of many, and many paralytics and cripples were healed. Acts 8:8 So there was great joy in that city.

Acts 9:33 There he found a man named Aeneas, a paralytic who had been bedridden for eight years. Acts 9:34 “Aeneas,” Peter said to him, “Jesus Christ heals you. Get up and take care of your mat.” Immediately Aeneas got up. Acts 9:35 All those who lived in Lydda and Sharon saw him and turned to the Lord.

This is exactly how Jesus healed the lame man by the pool in Bethesda (“Then Jesus said to him, “Get up! Pick up your mat and walk.”” – John 5:8). The only difference is that Peter did the healing in Jesus’ Name. Healing works exactly the same for us as it did for the apostles. It is by faith and in the Name of Jesus.

Acts 9:36 In Joppa there was a disciple named Tabitha (which, when translated, is Dorcas ), who was always doing good and helping the poor. Acts 9:37 About that time she became sick and died, and her body was washed and placed in an upstairs room. Acts 9:38 Lydda was near Joppa; so when the disciples heard that Peter was in Lydda, they sent two men to him and urged him, “Please come at once!” Acts 9:39 Peter went with them, and when he arrived he was taken upstairs to the room. All the widows stood around him, crying and showing him the robes and other clothing that Dorcas had made while she was still with them. Acts 9:40 Peter sent them all out of the room; then he got down on his knees and prayed. Turning toward the dead woman, he said, “Tabitha, get up.” She opened her eyes, and seeing Peter she sat up.

Notice that Peter sent everyone out of the room before raising the girl from the dead. An atmosphere of doubt and unbelief can hinder healing. Also notice that Peter prayed before raising her from the dead, but then he quitpraying and commanded her to get up.

Acts 14:8 In Lystra there sat a man crippled in his feet, who was lame from birth and had never walked. Acts 14:9 He listened to Paul as he was speaking. Paul looked directly at him, saw that he had faith to be healed. Acts 14:10 and called out, “Stand up on your feet!” At that, the man jumped up and began to walk.

Acts 19:11 God did extraordinary miracles through Paul, Acts 19:12 so that even handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched him were taken to the sick, and their illnesses were cured and the evil spirits left them.


Acts 20:9 Seated in a window was a young man named Eutychus, who was sinking into a deep sleep as Paul talked on and on. When he was sound asleep, he fell to the ground from the third story and was picked up dead. Acts 20:10 Paul went down, threw himself on the young man and put his arms around him. “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “He’s alive!”
