Message
Faith is the conduit between man and God. It is important in the life of a praying believer as the scripture confirms that without it, it is impossible to please God. “Faith is taking the first step even when you don’t see the whole staircase,” submitted Martin Luther King, Jr. A prayer of faith means a prayer you offer believing firmly in God’s promises, even when you have not yet seen the physical manifestation of the promise.
The centurion, a soldier, had a sick servant and met Jesus for the healing of the man. This man had faith in the prayer of our Lord to a point that he told Him not to bother following him to his house but to just Pray for the sick. He believed that when Jesus prayed anywhere at any time, the sick would be healed. Indeed, his servant was healed according to his great faith. You may be going through some challenges now, but your prayer of faith can move your mountains, turning the situation around for you.
