Acts 9:32-34
KJV—And it came to pass, as Peter passed
throughout all quarters, he came down
also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda.
And there he found a certain man named
Aeneas, which had kept his bed eight years,
and was sick of the palsy. And Peter said
unto him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ maketh thee
whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he
arose immediately.
Amp—Now as Peter went here and there
among them all, he went down also to the
saints who lived at Lydda. There he found
a man named Aeneas, who had been bedfast
for eight years and was paralyzed. And
Peter said to him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ, the
Messiah, [now] makes you whole. Get up and
make your bed! And immediately [Aeneas]
stood up.
Moffatt—Peter moved here and there among
them all, and it happened that in the course
of his tours he came down to visit the saints
who stayed at Lydda. There he found a man
called Aeneas who had been bed-ridden
for eight years with paralysis. “Aeneas,” said Peter,
“Jesus the Christ cures you! Get up and make
your bed!” He got up at once.
NEB—Peter was making a general tour, in
the course of which he went down to visit
God’s people at Lydda. There he found a
man named Aeneas who had been bedridden
with paralysis for eight years. Peter said
to him, ‘Aeneas, Jesus Christ cures you; get
up and make your bed’, and immediately he
stood up.
Acts 14:8-10
KJV—And there sat a certain man at Lystra,
impotent in his feet, being a cripple from his
mother’s womb, who never had walked: The
same heard Paul speak: who steadfastly
beholding him, and perceiving that he had
faith to be healed, Said with a loud voice,
Stand upright on thy feet. And he leaped
and walked.
Amp—Now at Lystra a man sat whose feet
it was impossible for him to use, for he was
a cripple from birth and had never walked.
He was listening to Paul as he talked, and
[Paul] gazing intently at him and observing
that he had faith to be healed, Shouted at
him, saying, Stand erect on your feet! And
he leaped up and walked.
Moffatt—At Lystra there was a man sitting,
who was powerless in his feet, a lame
man unable to walk ever since he was born.
He heard Paul speaking, and Paul, gazing
steadily at him and noticing that he had
faith enough to make him better, said in a
loud voice, “Stand erect on your feet.” Up he
jumped and began to walk.
NEB—At Lystra sat a crippled man, lame
from birth, who had never walked in his life.
This man listened while Paul was speaking.
Paul fixed his eyes on him and saw that he
had the faith to be cured, so he said to him
in a loud voice, ‘Stand up straight on your
feet’; and he sprang up and started to walk.

Acts 5:12-16
KJV—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. And of the
rest durst no man join himself to them: but
the people magnified them. And believers
were the more added to the Lord, multitudes
both of men and women.)
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. 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.
Amp—Now by the hands of the apostles
(special messengers) numerous and startling
signs and wonders were being performed
among the people. And by common consent
they all met together [at the temple] in
the porch or covered walk called Solomon’s.
And none of those who were not of their
number dared to join and associate with
them, but the people held them in high
regard and praised and made much of them.
More and more there were being added to
the Lord those who believed—[that is,] those
who acknowledged Jesus as their Savior
and devoted themselves to Him, joined and
gathered with them—crowds both of men
and of women.
So that they [even] kept carrying out the
sick into the streets and placing them on
couches and sleeping pads, [in the hope]
that as Peter passed by at least his shadow
might fall on some of them. And the people
gathered also from the towns and hamlets
around Jerusalem, bringing the sick and
those troubled with foul spirits, and they
were all cured.
Moffatt—Now they all without exception
met in the portico of Solomon. Though
the people extolled them, not a soul from
the outside dared to join them. On the
other hand, crowds of men and women
who believed in the Lord were brought
in. Many miracles and wonders were performed
among the people by the apostles.
In fact, invalids were actually carried into
the streets and laid on beds and mattresses,
so that, when Peter passed, his shadow at
anyrate might fall on one or other of them.
Crowds gathered even from the towns near
Jerusalem, bringing invalids and people
troubled with unclean spirits, all of whom
were healed.
Acts 8:5-8
KJV—Then Philip went down to the city of
Samaria, and preached Christ unto them.
And the people with one accord gave heed
unto those things which Philip spake, hearing
and seeing the miracles which he did.
For unclean spirits, crying with loud voice,
came out of many that were possessed
with them: and many taken with palsies,
and that were lame, were healed. And there
was great joy in that city.
Amp—Philip [the deacon, not the apostle]
went down to the city of Samaria, and proclaimed
the Christ, the Messiah, to them [the
people]; And great crowds of people with one
accord listened to and heeded what was said
by Philip, as they heard him and watched the
miracles and wonders which he kept performing
[from time to time]. For foul spirits came
out of many who were possessed by them,
screaming and shouting with a loud voice, and
many who were suffering from palsy or were
crippled were restored to health. And there
was great rejoicing in that city.
NEB—Philip came down to a city in Samaria
and began proclaiming the Messiah to them.
The crowds, to a man, listened eagerly
to what Philip said, when they heard him and
saw the miracles that he performed. For
in many cases of possession the unclean
spirits came out with a loud cry; and many
paralysed and crippled folk were cured; and
there was great joy in that city.

Luke 10:1-3, 8-9
KJV—After these things the Lord appointed
another seventy also, and sent them
two and two before his face into every city
and place, whither he himself would come.
Therefore said he unto them, The harvest
truly is great, but the labourers are few:
pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest,
that he would send forth laborers into his
harvest. Go your ways…And into whatsoever
city ye enter, and they receive you, eat such
things as are set before you: And heal the
sick that are therein, and say unto them, The
kingdom of God is come nigh unto you.
Amp—Now after this the Lord chose and
appointed seventy others, and sent them
out ahead of Him, two by two, into every
town and place where He Himself was
about to come (visit). And He said to them,
(There is much ripe grain,) the harvest indeed
is abundant, but the farm hands are
few. Pray therefore the Lord of the harvest
to send out laborers into His harvest. Go
your way; behold…Whenever you go into a
town and they receive and accept and welcome
you, eat what is set before you; And
heal the sick in it and say to them, The kingdom
of God has come close to you.
NEB—After this the Lord appointed a further
seventy-two and sent them on ahead
in pairs to every town and place he was
going to visit himself. He said to them: ‘The
crop is heavy, but labourers are scarce: you
must therefore beg the owner to send labourers
to harvest his crop. Be on your
way.’…Do not move from house to house.
When you come into a town and they make
you welcome, eat the food provided for you;
heal the sick there, and say, “The kingdom of
God has come close to you.”
Acts 3:1-10
KJV—Now Peter and John went up together
into the temple at the hour of prayer,
being the ninth hour. And a certain man
lame from his mother’s womb was carried,
whom they laid daily at the gate of the
temple which is called Beautiful, to ask alms
of them that entered into the temple; Who
seeing Peter and John about to go into the
temple asked an alms.
And Peter, fastening his eyes upon him
with John, said, Look on us. And he gave
heed unto them, expecting to receive something
of them. Then Peter said, Silver and
gold have I none; but such as I have give I
thee: In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth
rise up and walk.
And he took him by the right hand, and
lifted him up: and immediately his feet and
ankle bones received strength. And he leaping
up stood, and walked, and entered with
them into the temple, walking, and leaping,
and praising God. And all the people saw
him walking and praising God: And they
knew that it was he which sat for alms at
the Beautiful gate of the temple: and they
were filled with wonder and amazement at
that which had happened unto him.
Amp—Now Peter and John were going up
to the temple at the hour of prayer, the
ninth hour (three o’clock in the afternoon),
[When] a certain man crippled from his birth
was being carried along, who was laid each
day at that gate of the temple [which is]
called Beautiful, that he might beg for charitable
gifts from those who entered the
temple. So when he saw Peter and John
about to go into the temple, he asked them
to give him a gift.
And Peter directed his gaze intently at
him, and so did John, and said, Look at us!
And [the man] paid attention to them, expecting
that he was going to get something
from them. But Peter said, Silver and gold
[money], I have none; but what I do have,
that I give to you: in (the use of) the name
of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, walk!
Then he took hold of the man’s right
hand with a firm grip and raised him up.
And at once his feet and ankle bones
became strong and steady, And leaping
forth he stood and began to walk, and he
went into the temple with them, walking
and leaping and praising God. And all the
people saw him walking about and praising
God, And they recognized him as the
man who usually sat [begging] for alms at
the Beautiful Gate of the temple, and they
were filled with wonder and amazement
(bewilderment, consternation) over what
had occurred to him.

John 14:12
KJV—Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that
believeth on me, the works that I do shall he
do also; and greater works than these shall
he do; because I go unto my Father.
Amp—I assure you, most solemnly I tell you,
if any one steadfastly believes in Me, he
will himself be able to do the things that I
do; and he will do even greater things than
these, because I go to the Father.
Moffatt—Truly, truly I tell you, he who believes
in me will do the very deeds I do, and
still greater deeds than these. For I am going
to the Father.
NEB—In truth, in very truth I tell you, he
who has faith in me will do what I am doing;
and he will do greater things still because I
am going to the Father.
Mark 6:7, 12-13
KJV—And (Jesus) called unto him the twelve,
and began to send them forth by two and
two; and gave them power over unclean
spirits…And they went out, and preached
that men should repent. And they cast out
many devils, and anointed with oil many
that were sick, and healed them.
Amp—And He called to Him the twelve
[apostles]; and began to send them out [as
His ambassadors] two by two, and gave
them authority and power over the unclean
spirits…So they went out and preached
that men should repent [that is that they
should change their minds for the better,
and heartily amend their ways with abhorrence
for their past sins]. And they drove
out many unclean spirits, and anointed with
oil many who were sick, and cured them.
NEB—On one of his teaching journeys
round the villages he summoned the Twelve
and sent them out in pairs on a mission. He
gave them authority over unclean
spirits…So they sent out and called publicly
for repentance. They drove out many devils, and
many sick people they anointed with oil and cured.
Mark 16:14-18
KJV—(After Jesus’ resurrection) he appeared
unto the eleven as they sat at meat, and up
braided them with their unbelief and hardness
of heart, because they believed not
them which had seen him after he was risen.
And he said unto them, Go ye into all the
world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
He that believeth and is baptized shall
be saved; but he that believeth not shall
be damned. And these signs shall follow
them that believe; In my name shall they
cast out devils; they shall speak with new
tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if
they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt
them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and
they shall recover.
Amp—Afterward He appeared to the
eleven [apostles, themselves] as they reclined
at table; and He reproved and reproached
them for their unbelief (their lack of faith)
and their hardness of heart, because they
had refused to believe those who had seen
Him and looked at Him attentively
after He was risen (from death).
And He said to them, Go into all the world
and preach and publish openly the good
news (the Gospel) to every creature (of the
whole human race). He who believes—[that
is, who adheres to and trusts in and relies
on the Gospel and Him Whom it sets
forth—and is baptized will be saved [from
the penalty of eternal death]; but he who
does not believe—who does not adhere to
and trust in and rely on the Gospel and Him
Whom it sets forth—will be condemned.
And these attesting signs will accompany those
who believe: in My name they will drive out
demons; they will speak in new languages;
They will pick up serpents, and [even] if they
drink anything deadly, it will not hurt them;
they will lay their hands on the sick, and
they will get well.
Luke 9:1-2, 6
KJV—Then (Jesus) called his twelve disciples
together, and gave them power and authority
over all devils, and to cure diseases. And
he sent them to preach the kingdom of God,
and to heal the sick…And they departed, and
went through the towns, preaching the gospel,
and healing every where.
Amp—Then Jesus called together the twelve
apostles, and gave them power and authority
over all demons and to cure diseases, And
He sent them out to announce and preach
the kingdom of God and to bring healing…
And departing they went about from village
to village, preaching the Gospel and restoring
the afflicted to health everywhere.
Moffatt—Calling the twelve apostles together,
he gave them power and authority
over all daemons as well as to heal diseases,
sending them out to preach the Reign of
God and to cure the sick…So they went
from village to village, preaching the gospel
and healing everywhere.

Kenneth Copeland — More Than a Holy Ghost Giggle
Posted by admin | Filed under Kenneth Copeland, Kenneth Copeland Ministries
Now let me show you how that information relates to the laughter and the outpouring of God’s glory we’ve begun to experience. The word glory as used throughout the Old Testament literally means “to be heavy laden with everything that is good,” and it relates directly to the presence of God’s Spirit.
Some years ago, I learned from Billye Brim, who has studied Hebrew extensively, that the word grief is the exact opposite. It means to be heavy laden with everything that is bad. Grief is the satanic reciprocal of glory.
So, when the glory of God comes on you, grief doesn’t stand a chance. It has to flee! When it does, the joy of the Lord that’s in you just starts bubbling out. There’s nothing to hold it back.
Of course, that’s a lot of fun. We all enjoy it. But actually, the Lord is not just out to give us a good time and a Holy Ghost giggle. He has a greater purpose. He wants us to be full of joy because it’s the force that will make us strong enough to carry out His plan in this final hour. It will give us the spiritual, mental and physical fortitude to rise up in the fullness of God’s glory fully healed, fully delivered, fully prosperous so we can reap the final harvest and march out of here into the Rapture.
Listen to me. The Church will not slip out of this earth in defeat and disgrace. We will not leave here like some whipped pup. No, God will take us out in glorious victory. He will do for us even more than He did for the Israelites when they left Egypt. Psalm 105 says:
He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes. Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them. He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night. The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven. He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river. For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant. And he brought forth his people with joy, and his chosen with gladness (verses 37-43).
Look at that last verse again. It says God “brought forth his people with joy.” No wonder none of them was sick or feeble! Joy made them strong from the inside out. “Brother Copeland, are you saying joy heals?”
Yes, I am. Proverbs 17:22 plainly says, “A merry heart doeth good like a medicine.” Even modern research has proven that joy and healing are connected. There are documented reports of people who’ve been healed watching old Laurel and Hardy movies. They just released a small measure of joy and their bodies responded.
