Do you know what a centurion is? Let`s learn, so open the Word of God in the book of Matthew chapter 8 verse 5, and the Lord says: “Now when Jesus had entered Capernaum, a centurion came to Him, pleading with Him,” Centurion is similar to a colonel, an officer who leads one hundred soldiers, and Capernaum is a pagan province, in other words, unfaithful. People from Capernaum didn`t like Jesus and if anyone talked about Jesus, he or she should die. But, even so, the Messiah went to that land. When He entered in that town there was no crowd to welcome Him or following Him. Different from any other place where Jesus passed and a crowd followed Him. But there was a man waiting for Jesus, the Centurion. Why did Jesus go there because of a single man? It's Jesus’ wish. One thing is for us to go behind a soul, something else is an architect goes where he is not well received to make his living. That man wasn`t begging for someone in his family, but for his servant, “saying, “Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, dreadfully tormented.” Matthew 8.6. And now, we understand why Jesus was there. The Centurion didn`t need many things to believe, and when the man or woman doesn't need much to believe, Jesus goes to the site.

Be aware that Jesus does everything to meet you; you are precious to Him.

“The centurion answered and said, “Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.” Matthew 8.8. Jesus knew the centurion would say he didn`t deserve His presence The faith of that man was that big, he said to Jesus just send a Word and an Angel, because he knew the power of the word of Jesus. This Centurion is the kind of person who doesn't need much to believe; just one word his servant would be cured. Jesus became astounded at that man`s faith, “When Jesus heard it, He marveled, and said to those who followed, “Assuredly, I say to you, I have not found such great faith, not even in Israel!” Matthew 8.10 If you are going through a time of scourge, be calm, do you know why? It`s because Jesus is near you! No doctor was able to heal that servant, and then Jesus went there to change this picture. So it will be to you, is this cause impossible before your eyes? No problem, because today Jesus appears in your life. The harder it gets, the more you have to believe!
