Peter's Healing Ministry

Faith in Action

Self-controlled, Upright and Godly Faith

A Disciplined Faith

Acts 5:12-16 The Message

They All Met Regularly

12-16 Through the work of the apostles, many God-signs were set up among the people, many wonderful things done. They all met regularly and in remarkable harmony on the Temple porch named after Solomon. But even though people admired them a lot, outsiders were wary about joining them. On the other hand, those who put their trust in the Master were added right and left, men and women both. They even carried the sick out into the streets and laid them on stretchers and bedrolls, hoping they would be touched by Peter’s shadow when he walked by. They came from the villages surrounding Jerusalem, throngs of them, bringing the sick and bedeviled. And they all were healed.

For Reflection

Worshiping just outside the temple in what was known as Solomon's colonnade or porch, the new believers met regularly in in harmony. They were known as healers.They put their lives online to help the sick.
The sign of a Christian is his or her willingness to heal at all costs. It is the willingness to give one's life to healing that reveals one's conviction in the Holy Spirit. It is the authentic call to God's grace. It is the reason for being.

Pray

Pray that you will be known for your restorative grace.
