The below can be overwhelming. I suggest two books as a starting point for a Biblical, traditional, rational, and intensely experiential study of spiritual gifts: Wayne Grudem’s The Gift of Prophecy in the New Testament and Today and John Wimber’s Power Healing.
The following sources could be resorted to in order to build a solid continuationist worldview, increase your faith for healing, and pray for healing effectively.
Starting with John Wimber and the Association of Vineyard Churches, as a modern ministry platform and church environment, and working our way back in charismatic church history, we can find (provided, with a Reformation view of soteriology):
1. Catholic saints – particularly those called “mystics,” “visionaries,” “miracle-workers.”
2. Eastern Orthodox saints – the same.
3. St. Benedict of Nursia
4. St. Columba
5. Hildegard of Bingen
6. St. Francis of Assisi
7. St. Teresa of Avila
8. John Knox
9. George Fox
10. John Wesley
11. Charles Finney
12. William J. Seymour
13. Smith Wigglesworth
14. John Wimber
The above 14 categories – biographies, journals, books, etc, and pro-charismatic arguments could definitely be solidly maintained on a study of these persons and subjects. The same could be said of the theology of John Fletcher, the commentaries of Adam Clarke and John Wesley, and other early Quaker writings, such as The Journal of George Fox (8 vols.) and Fox’s Book of Miracles.
