THE CENTURION’S FAITH

MEMORY VERSE: “When Jesus heard it, he marveled, and said to them that followed, verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel”

TEXT: MATTHEW 8:5-13

Centurions were commanders of 100 Roman soldiers. These men were assigned to various parts of the Roman Empire for various duties, including peace-keeping. Certainly, some of these men were employed for the purpose of executing people condemned to death for any misdeed or crime of which Jesus Christ was accused. Instead of harping on his own worthiness, he sought Jesus’ healing alone with all humility. We learn several truths about faith from this scripture: that to please God (1) we must have faith in Him, (2) we must believe that He exists, and (3) we must believe that He will answer us when we want to know Him or to get help from Him.

God expects His children to be people of extraordinary faith like the centurion who acknowledged Jesus as all-powerful. He knew that God had the power to speak things into being. The centurion’s great faith showed that he believed in Jesus and that He had the power to heal. The Roman centurion showed us that we can deal with any hard situation with faith in God.

QUOTE: We must have faith in Him.

PRAYER: Holy Father, increase my faith, in Jesus’ name.

CHALLENGE: Like the centurion, pray believing.
