He has given me power to do signs and wonders. I can do these things by the power of the Spirit of God. From Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum I have finished preaching. In those places, I preached the good news about Christ.

This went on for two years. So all the Jews and Greeks who lived in Asia Minor heard the word of the Lord.God did amazing miracles through Paul.Even handkerchiefs and aprons that had touched him were taken to those who were sick. When this happened, their sicknesses were healed and evil spirits left them.Some Jews went around driving out evil spirits. They tried to use the name of the Lord Jesus to set free those who were controlled by demons. They said,“ In Jesus’ name I command you to come out. He is the Jesus that Paul is preaching about.”Seven sons of Sceva were doing this. Sceva was a Jewish chief priest.One day the evil spirit answered them,“ I know Jesus. And I know about Paul. But who are you?”Then the man who had the evil spirit jumped on Sceva’s sons. He overpowered them all. He gave them a terrible beating. They ran out of the house naked and bleeding.The Jews and Greeks living in Ephesus heard about this. They were all overcome with fear. They held the name of the Lord Jesus in high honor.Many who believed now came and openly admitted what they had done.A number of those who had practiced evil magic brought their scrolls together. They set them on fire out in the open. They added up the value of the scrolls. The scrolls were worth more than someone could earn in two lifetimes.The word of the Lord spread everywhere. It became more and more powerful.
