Bedridden

Bedridden

Peter, walking the streets of Lydda preaching the Gospel to all who would listen, came to a man named Aeneas. Aeneas had been bedridden for eight years but God had sent Peter there to heal him. And at a word, Aeneas was healed and God used this healing to bring many people to Him. Meanwhile, in Joppa, a disciple named Tabitha became ill and died. Her friends sent for Peter at once and when he arrived he took Tabitha by the hand and told her to arise. God restored life to Tabitha’s body and many people celebrated God’s goodness with her.

Acts 9:34
In our previous episode, we heard of Saul’s amazing conversion experience, as God overwhelmed him on the road to Damascus, where he was headed to imprison and silence Christians. When Saul came face to face with Jesus, the one he was persecuting, his life forever changed and he embraced his calling to take the gospel to the world. Today we’ll hear as Peter journeys to preach the good news of a risen Savior to the towns of Lydda and Joppa. Filled with God’s power he will bring physical and spiritual healing to the sick and lame, even restoring life to one who died. In all of it, God’s name will be glorified as more people embrace the gospel message.
