Reach out your hand to heal, and grant that wonders and miracles may be performed through the name of your holy Servant Jesus."

But when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, you will be filled with power, and you will be witnesses for me in Jerusalem, in all of Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth."

(SEE 1:21)

God has raised this very Jesus from death, and we are all witnesses to this fact.

He has been raised to the right side of God, his Father, and has received from him the Holy Spirit, as he had promised. What you now see and hear is his gift that he has poured out on us.

You killed the one who leads to life, but God raised him from death---and we are witnesses to this.

It was the power of his name that gave strength to this lame man. What you see and know was done by faith in his name; it was faith in Jesus that has made him well, as you can all see.

Many miracles and wonders were being performed among the people by the apostles. All the believers met together in Solomon's Porch.

But more and more people were added to the group---a crowd of men and women who believed in the Lord.

And crowds of people came in from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing those who were sick or who had evil spirits in them; and they were all healed.

The disciples went and preached everywhere, and the Lord worked with them and proved that their preaching was true by the miracles that were performed.]

You are witnesses of these things.

And I myself will send upon you what my Father has promised. But you must wait in the city until the power from above comes down upon you."

I will be bold and speak only about what Christ has done through me to lead the Gentiles to obey God. He has done this by means of words and deeds,

by the power of miracles and wonders, and by the power of the Spirit of God. And so, in traveling all the way from Jerusalem to Illyricum, I have proclaimed fully the Good News about Christ.

For we brought the Good News to you, not with words only, but also with power and the Holy Spirit, and with complete conviction of its truth. You know how we lived when we were with you; it was for your own good.

At the same time God added his witness to theirs by performing all kinds of miracles and wonders and by distributing the gifts of the Holy Spirit according to his will.

praising God, and enjoying the good will of all the people. And every day the Lord added to their group those who were being saved.

Jesus grew both in body and in wisdom, gaining favor with God and people.

Out of the fullness of his grace he has blessed us all, giving us one blessing after another.
