Gift of Healing:  Believe & Receive Healing

 

Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas, this woman was full of good works and alms deeds which she did. And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died; whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.  And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.

 

Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber, and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.  Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. She opened her eyes; and when she saw Peter, she sat up.  He gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive. And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord. (Acts 9:36-42) KJV

 

Note:  Jesus told His disciples that they would be able to do greater things (by the Power of the Holy Spirit).  After the disciples received the gift of the Holy Spirit, they were empowered to do many wondrous miracles.
