Tabitha (Dorcas) :32-43 • Name means “Gazelle” 32 And it came to pass, as Peter passed throughout all quarters, he came down also to the saints which dwelt at Lydda. 33 And there he found a certain man named , which had kept his bed eight years, and was sick of the palsy. 34 And Peter said unto him, Aeneas, Jesus Christ Dorcas Gazelle maketh thee whole: arise, and make thy bed. And he arose immediately. 35 And all that dwelt at Lydda and Saron saw him, and turned to the Lord. 36 Now there was at Joppa a certain named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did. 37 And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber. 38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa,

Peter’s travels in Acts 9-10 and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them. 39 Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them. 40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up. 41 And he gave her his hand, and lifted her up, and when he had called the saints and widows, presented her alive. 42 And it was known throughout all Joppa; and many believed in the Lord. 43 And it came to pass, that he tarried many days in Joppa with one Simon a tanner.

certain prophets and teachers; as Barnabas, and

Simeon that was called Niger, and Lucius of

Cyrene, and Manaen, which had been brought up

with Herod the tetrarch, and Saul.

2 As they ministered to the Lord, and fasted, the Holy Ghost said, Separate me Barnabas and Saul for the work whereunto I have called them.

3 And when they had fasted and prayed, and laid their hands on them, they sent them away.

4 So they, being sent forth by the Holy Ghost,

departed unto Seleucia; and from thence they sailed to Cyprus. 5 And when they were at Salamis, they preached the word of God in the synagogues of the : and they had also John to their minister.

6 And when they had gone through the isle unto 12 Then the deputy, when he saw what was done, , they found a certain sorcerer, a false believed, being astonished at the doctrine of the prophet, a Jew, whose name was Barjesus: Lord. 7 Which was with the deputy of the country, , a prudent man; who called for Barnabas and Saul, and desired to hear the word of God.

8 But Elymas the sorcerer (for so is his name by interpretation) withstood them, seeking to turn away the deputy from the faith. 9 Then Saul, (who also is called Paul,) filled with the Holy Ghost, set his eyes on him. 10 And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord? 11 And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.

Hymn 142

How sweet the name of Jesus sounds In a believer’s ears; It calms his sorrows, heals his wounds, And drives away his fears.

It makes the wounded spirits whole, It soothes the troubled breast; ‘Tis manna to the hungry soul, And to the weary rest.

Blest Name-the rock on which we build, Our shield and hiding-place, A never failing treasury fill’d With boundless stores of grace.

Thou art our Shepherd, Saviour, Friend, Our Prophet, Priest, and King- Our Lord, our life, our way and end, To Thee our thanks we bring.

27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. 28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. Romans 8:35-39 Isaiah 40:28-31 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? 28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or the everlasting God, the LORD, the Creator of the famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding. 36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the 29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that slaughter. have no might he increaseth strength. 37 Nay, in all these things we are more than 30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and conquerors through him that loved us. the young men shall utterly fall:
