			One could assume that Judas took part in the ministry of miracles that we performed by the disciples but it is also clear that this is an assumption. As a result, it is also clear that one could also assume that Judas traveled with the disciples and even prayed with them but that he was simply part of the group that saw miracles take place as a result of the prayers of the group. Did Judas pray for someone on his own and that person was healed? There is nothing in scripture that would state that such a thing took place. And in light of the other statements regarding Judas, it is also safe to assume that he did not have any kind of a healing anointing at all.
