"Works of power" is a term favored by occultists. (For example, theosophist Helena Blavatsky used this term in
her writings.)
To my knowledge "works of power"
appears only in Darby's translation of the scriptures and the Bible in Basic English. Darby marked his
Bible 15 times with this
phrase.
Matthew 7:22 Many shall say to me
in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied through *thy* name, and through
*thy* name cast out demons, and through *thy* name done many

Matthew 11:23 And *thou*, Capernaum, who hast been raised up to heaven, shalt be

Mark 6:2 And when sabbath was come he began to teach in the synagogue, and many

Luke 10:13 Woe to thee, Chorazin! woe to thee, Bethsaida! for if the
works of power which have taken place in you had
taken place in Tyre and Sidon, they had long ago repented, sitting in sackcloth

[KJV: mighty works]
Luke 19:37 And as he drew near, already at the descent of the mount of Olives,
all the multitude of the disciples began, rejoicing, to praise God with a loud
voice for all the works of power
which they had
seen, [KJV: mighty works]
Acts 2:22 Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus the Nazaraean, a man borne
witness to by God to you by works of power and
wonders and signs, which God wrought by him in your midst, as yourselves know
[KJV: miracles]
Acts 8:13 And Simon also himself believed; and, having been baptised, continued
constantly with Philip; and, beholding the signs and great works of power which took place, was astonished.
[KJV: miracles]

all endurance, signs, and wonders, and works of power. [KJV: mighty deeds]
Hebrews 6:5 and have tasted the good word of God, and the works of power of the
age to come,
[KJV: And have tasted the good word of God, and
the powers of the world to come,]
NOTE:
(Occultists in textual critic's clothing eagerly anticipate the
(New) age
to
come, NOT the world to come.)
