Attractive Power

Acts 5:15-16

As a result, people brought those who were ill into the streets and laid them on beds and mats so that at least Peter's shadow might fall on some of them as he passed by. Crowds gathered also from the towns around Jerusalem, bringing those who were ill and those tormented by impure spirits, and all of them were healed. (NIVUK)

This narrative tells of another episode in God's plan: to ensure that nobody in Jerusalem forgot about Jesus. Although the religious leaders killed Him, God gave Him new life (Acts 2:23-24). When they persecuted the apostles, the church grew (Acts 8:1-4). And so many sick people were brought into the streets, lying on straw mats, hoping that Peter would pass by and the Spirit of Jesus in him would be powerful to heal them.
