I am a Centurion and you can read my story in Matthew 8:5-13.

Let's read together.

"When Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to him, asking for help. "Lord," he said, "my servant lies at home paralyzed, suffering terribly."

Jesus said to him, "Shall I come and heal him?"

The centurion replied, "Lord, I do not deserve to have you come under my roof. But just say the word, and my servant will be healed.

For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, 'Go,' and he goes; and that one, 'Come,' and he comes. I say to my servant, 'Do this,' and he does it."

When Jesus heard this, he was amazed and said to those following him, "Truly I tell you, I have not found anyone in Israel with such great faith.

I say to you that many will come from the east and the west, and will take their places at the feast with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven.

But the subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth."

Then Jesus said to the centurion, "Go! Let it be done just as you believed it would." And his servant was healed at that moment.

Ofcourse, we know that JESUS can really heal all kinds of sickness and diseases. Can He heal sick people instanly by His own will? Yes, He can. But why were there some people who were not healed instantly? And why are there some people who are not yet healed until now? Actually, it depends on the will of God and the faith of the person.

In my case, my servant was healed instantly because of my faith. Faith can move mountains. Whatever you say and believe, it will happen if you have faith that it will happen.

The first time I heard about Jesus, I had this strong desire to meet Him. When my servant got sick, JESUS was my first and last option at that time. I thought, I have a great authority on soldiers because they follow me. I knew I could get my servant healed if I'd talk to JESUS, because He will agree on healing my servant and I heard that JESUS loves healing sick people. So He will not say NO on my request. And I was right, He said YES when I asked Him to just say the "Word" and my servant got healed instantly even without seeing JESUS face to face.

By hearing my testimony, I hope you're ignited to believe in JESUS. You will receive if you ask and believe that you will have what you asked for through faith in JESUS.

To God be the glory!
