Matthew 8:6-10



Matthew 8:6-10 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented. And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him. The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. Jesus was amazed at the centurion’s faith. And the centurion didn’t seem to be worried because he knew that Jesus could heal his servant. And He knew that Jesus didn’t have to be there in order for the servant to be healed. He was a commander of many men and he knew how orders were to be followed. And he had the faith to believe that Jesus’ orders would be followed too. So, how about us? Do we have faith in Jesus? Do we know, that we know for sure that Jesus’ orders will be followed? Will we follow Jesus’ orders? I hope so!
