“The Faith of the Centurion”
Tuesday, March 12, 2024Key Verse
“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.” Matthew 8:8
Text — Matthew 8:5-10
Message
A centurion is a captain over a hundred soldiers. The centurion in our Bible passage was a loving and caring leader. His servant fell sick and he invited Jesus to come and heal him. Jesus was ready to go but the centurion said “speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed.”
There is power in the spoken word of Christ and we need faith like the centurion to get our miracle. You need to put your faith into action to get your needed miracle. From today, you must begin to speak the word of faith for your healing, deliverance, success, breakthrough, dominion and power over the enemy. With faith you will accomplish great things, therefore have faith in God.
Forget and look away from negative things.
Abide in God’s word, read and believe its promises. Increase your faith by committing the promises of God to memory.
Trust in the Lord with all your heart.
Have the assurance that God will answer all your prayers.
