Acts 9

Down in verse 32 we see Peter doing some traveling, he took the words of Jesus seriously that said, "Go into all the world". Here Peter finds Aeneas who is bed ridden and paralyzed. Peter just speaks to him and says, "Aeneas, Jesus Christ heals you, get up and make your bed." And he arose immediately. Next verse, ...and all who saw him turned to the Lord." One miracle brought many people to Christ. God wants to increase his power in his people to allow miracles to happen. Miracles are not just for the clergy, miracles are for the believers as well. Jesus said, "these signs will follow those who beleive.." Every beleiver can experience Gods power for miracles. How does this happen? As we step out in faith and act upon Gods word, He confirms that word with signs. If we want to walk on the water, we have to get out of the boat. It's uncomfortable to get out of the boat because we worry about failure. Just do what the word says to do and leave the results to Him. Remember Peter was just a fisherman, a normal man like you and I and God was able to bring healing and do this miracle through him, He will do the same with you as well.
