Miracles and Healing

Jesus—the very Name has within it miracle working Power, even to this day, though nearly two thousand years have rolled away since He walked with men. Jesus, the Galilean, was a miracle worker. Jesus' Life was a miracle. His wisdom and teachings were miraculous. He made miracles common. His death was a miracle. His Resurrection was a miracle. His appearances were miraculous. His ascension was a staggering miracle. But perhaps the most outstanding miracle of all those wonder days was the event of Pentecost. From the upper room, went forth men and women boldly to testify of Jesus' Name, who fifty days before shrank in fear from the very names of the High Priest and his associates. Peter, the trembling, fearful Peter, is now clothed with a Power and fearlessness that is inexplicable; he goes out and faces the Sanhedrin, senate, and High Priesthood with a courage that amazes us. A stream of miracles flowed from the hands of the apostles that upset Judaism and shook the Roman government to its foundation.
