Sometimes, prayer was involved

Hover over the references to see the Biblical text

Acts 9:40
NOTE: Peter prays, but we have no idea what he prays? Does that imply it’s the obvious (if, indeed, what seems obvious to us was obvious to the early believers): that he prayed for her to be resurrected? Or is that us reading something into the verses? 

Acts 28:8


James 5:14
NOTE: The elders don’t “pray for the sick person to be made well,” they pray “over them,” whatever that means.
