1 Samuel 24; Psalm 57; Psalm 58; 1 Chronicles 8; Matthew 8
Do You Want The Kind Of Faith
That Amazes Jesus
He Is A Guy That Had That Kind Of Faith
5 When Jesus returned to Capernaum, a Roman officer came and pleaded with him, 6 “Lord, my young servant lies in bed, paralyzed and in terrible pain.”
7 Jesus said, “I will come and heal him.”
8 But the officer said, “Lord, I am not worthy to have you come into my home. Just say the word from where you are, and my servant will be healed. 9 I know this because I am under the authority of my superior officers, and I have authority over my soldiers. I only need to say, ‘Go,’ and they go, or ‘Come,’ and they come. And if I say to my slaves, ‘Do this,’ they do it.”
10 When Jesus heard this, he was amazed. Turning to those who were following him, he said, “I tell you the truth, I haven’t seen faith like this in all Israel! 11 And I tell you this, that many Gentiles will come from all over the world—from east and west—and sit down with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob at the feast in the Kingdom of Heaven. 12 But many Israelites—those for whom the Kingdom was prepared—will be thrown into outer darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.”
13 Then Jesus said to the Roman officer, “Go back home. Because you believed, it has happened.” And the young servant was healed that same hour.
What a huge amount of faith it would take to amaze God! Jesus made a very big deal over this Centurion’s incredible amount of faith. He said that He had not seen that kind of faith among His own people the Jews!
Have you ever asked God to give you that kind of faith? Faith that would amaze Your Heavenly Father! Why not? Why not ask Him for amazing faith today?
It is impossible to please You without faith! Unbelief is a lack of faith in You. I pray that you make me a man of huge amazing faith so that I can please You.
