Knowing God by the Spirit

Signs and wonders

Healing the Sick

“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he has anointed me to a proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor.” (Lk. 4:18-19)

But if it is by f the finger of God that I cast out demons, then the kingdom of God has come upon you.(Lk. 11:20)

The seventy-two returned with joy, saying, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us in your name!” 18 And he said to them, “I saw Satan fall like lightning from heaven. Behold, I have given you authority to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall hurt you. Nevertheless, do not rejoice in this, that the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice that your names are written in heaven.”.(Lk. 10:17-20)

And now, Lord, look upon their threats and grant to your servants to continue to speak your word with all boldness, while you stretch out your hand to heal, and signs and wonders are performed through the name of your holy servant Jesus.” And when they had prayed, the place in which they were gathered together was shaken, and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and continued to speak the word of God with boldness. (Acts 4:29-31)

In Practice

• Acknowledge God’s reality and expect signs and wonders

• Seek God to grant the fellowship of the Spirit in order to know Jesus

• The greatest is to abide in his love by obeying his commandments

• Do not boast in signs and wonders, rather be grateful that we are children of God
