Acts 19:11-12
11 Now God worked unusual miracles by the hands of Paul, 12 so that even handkerchiefs or aprons were brought from his body to the sick, and the diseases left them and the evil spirits went out of them.
Paul did unusual mighty things which pointed to Christ and not himself. Today many seek to do miracles, thinking them to be ordinary and expected to draw attention to themselves or prove their ministry. Here we see the miraculous are not the norm, nor are they to do anything except reinforce the gospel to those not seeing. Just saying that the things done are in the name of Jesus does not make it so, only His gifts and working in and through us can ever rightly do that.
