TEXT: LUKE 7:2-10
CLASSIC
TOPIC : THE DOMINATING FORCE OF FAITH
[2]And a certain centurion's servant, who was dear unto him, was sick, and ready to die.
[3]And when he heard of Jesus, he sent unto him the elders of the Jews, beseeching him that he would come and heal his servant.
[6]Then Jesus went with them. And when he was now not far from the house, the centurion sent friends to him, saying unto him, Lord, trouble not thyself: for I am not worthy that thou shouldest enter under my roof:
[7]Wherefore neither thought I myself worthy to come unto thee: but say in a word, and my servant shall be healed.
[8]For I also am a man set under authority, having under me soldiers, and I say unto one, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.
[9]When Jesus heard these things, he marvelled at him, and turned him about, and said unto the people that followed him, I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel.
[10]And they that were sent, returning to the house, found the servant whole that had been sick.
Dearly beloved, this Centurion, drew out three major revelations for the body of Christ.
1. He said to the Lord, "Say in a word". He therefore demonstrated his understanding of the power of the spoken word. The fact that the word is living and active.
2. He demonstrated his understanding of the composition of the power that is in the word of God.
He knew that the word moves and that it contains kinetic energy.
3. He had the revelation that words are containers that transport power, healing power.
By his faith, he proved that Christ could heal sicknesses from a distance.
His faith was an amazement even to Jesus.
Concerning you, I believe that your freedom from every terrible condition is ending now in Jesus mighty name.
I declare that they expire now in Jesus mighty name.
God bless you.
With the God I serve, nothing shall be impossible.
Your case is not bigger than God.
May you have a God filled day in the name of Jesus Christ, Amen.
Your Victory is already guaranteed
It is well, do not give up, with God all things are possible
