YOU CAN HAVE FAITH FOR OTHERS TO BE HEALED;
“Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour”(Matthew 8:13).
The Bible tells several inspiring stories of people who had faith for others to be healed. They couldn’t bring their loved ones to Jesus for one reason or the other, yet they got a miracle. This means therefore, that you can have faith for someone else to receive a miracle.
A certain Centurion whose dear servant was sick, and ready to die is one of such. When he heard of Jesus, he sent the elders of the Jews to beseech Him that He would come and heal his servant. Jesus agreed and followed them. But just before they got to the Centurion’s house, the Centurion sent a message to Jesus and said, “Lord, don’t trouble yourself; for I’m not worthy that you should enter under my roof; neither do I consider myself worthy to come to you, but just give the word, and my servant shall be healed” (Luke 7:2-7).
When Jesus heard the words of the centurion He marvelled at his faith and by the time the messengers got back to the Centurion’s house, they found the hitherto sick servant perfectly healed and made whole (Luke 7:9-10). The faith of his master prevailed and he got a miracle!
If the Centurion could demonstrate great faith on his servant’s behalf and get a miracle, you too can have faith to receive a miracle today for your loved ones-your spouse, siblings, parents, or children. Like the centurion, all you need is a word from the Master, and that word has already been given. (John 16:23-24).
So the question is: What do you want? The centurion was very clear and was convinced that the Master’s words were potent enough to give him a miracle. The same applies to you today; stand in the gap for others who are weak and helpless by asking the Father, in the Name of Jesus, for a miracle on their behalf, and it will be done unto you!
