Scripture Post #973: *PETER'S SHADOW*

Acts 5:

15 Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them.

16 There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one.

Context:

Acts 5:12: "And by the hands of the apostles were many signs and wonders wrought among the people; (and they were all with one accord in Solomon’s porch."

V. 13: "And of the rest durst no man join himself to them: but the people magnified them."

V. 14: "And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.)"

V. 15: "Insomuch that they brought forth the sick into the streets, and laid them on beds and couches, that at the least the shadow of Peter passing by might overshadow some of them."

V. 16: "There came also a multitude out of the cities round about unto Jerusalem, bringing sick folks, and them which were vexed with unclean spirits: and they were healed every one."

After Pentecost (when the power of the HOLY GHOST fell upon GOD's very first Apostles), the Apostles began to do many wonderful things in the name of the LORD. They were healing people, preaching the Gospel and raking in multitudes towards salvation! The anointing on the Apostle Peter's life was especially amazing. In fact, this Apostle was so anointed, that people gathered sick folks in his path so that they'd be healed just by the fall of *PETER'S SHADOW* touching them!
