1. Jesus Christ heals you (32-35)

The new peace and growth in the church in Jerusalem meant Peter could travel more about the country, feeding Jesus' lambs. When he did so, he found those who needed healing. Peter spoke to Aeneas personally by name and was clear it was Jesus, not Peter, who could heal him. Peter even used the similar words to Jesus, "get up and take care of your mat." Those who saw this turned to the Lord.

2. "Tabitha get up." (36-43)

While in Lydda, Peter was called to nearby Joppa, to the house of a faithful and caring disciple named Tabitha who had recently become sick and died. There were many widows crying out of sadness. Again, like Jesus had done with Jairus' daughter, Peter sent them all out of the room. He then got down on his knees and prayed. He did not rely on himself but asked God to give this woman life. He then said "Tabitha, get up" and helped her to her feet. The result was people believed in the Lord.
