Peter sent them all out of the room, and then he got down on his knees and prayed. He turned toward the dead woman and said, “Tabitha, get up!” She opened her eyes, and when she saw Peter, she sat up.
When Jesus saw that a crowd was running over to see what was happening, he ordered the evil spirit to leave the boy. “You spirit that makes him unable to hear and speak,” he said, “I command you, come out of him and never enter him again.”
But when it was time to leave, we continued on our way. All the believers, including their whole families, went with us out of the city. There on the beach we all got down on our knees to pray.
When you pray, go into your room, close the door, and pray to your Father, who can’t be seen. Then your Father, who sees what you do in secret, will reward you.
