Cure of the Servant of the Centurion

Chapter 8.2: Cure of the Servant of the Centurion "The servant of a centurion who was dear to him, being sick, was about to die. When the centurion had heard of Jesus, he sent unto Him the ancients of the Jews, desiring Him to come and heal his servant. When they came to Jesus, they besought Him earnestly, saying to Him: He is worthy that Thou shouldst do this to him, for he loveth our nation, and he hath built us a synagogue. And Jesus said: “I will come and heal him”. And Jesus went with them. And when He was not far from the house, the centurion sent his friends to say to Him in his name: “Lord, trouble not Thyself, for I am not worthy that Thou shouldst enter under my roof. For which cause neither did I think my self worthy to come to Thee; but only say the word, and my servant shall be healed; for I also am a man subject to authority, having under me soldiers; and I say to this one, Go, and he goeth, and to an other, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it”. And Jesus, hearing this, marveled, and said to them that followed Him: “Amen, I say to you, I have not found so great a faith in Israel; and to the centurion’s messengers, Go, and say to him (the centurion), as thou hast believed, be it done to thee. And they who were sent, having returned to the house, found the servant whole (well) who had been sick." Source: "Prayer: Its Necessity, Its Power, Its Conditions" by Fr.
