The Family Altar Audio Devotional - Day 10

And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him, And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented. And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him. The centurion answered and said, Lord, I am not worthy that thou shouldest come under my roof: but speak the word only, and my servant shall be healed. For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it. When Jesus heard it, he marvelled, and said to them that followed, Verily I say unto you, I have not found so great faith, no, not in Israel. And I say unto you, that many shall come from the east and west, and shall sit down with Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, in the kingdom of heaven. But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth. And Jesus said unto the centurion, Go thy way; and as thou hast believed, so be it done unto thee. And his servant was healed in the selfsame hour. (Matthew 8:5-13) 10 The nights grow on. Of course, I tire, and tire more. It is a truth that I believe, as a physical man tears down, the spiritual man has a chance. That’s what fasting and things are for. He can have a chance to work upon these five senses of ours, to bring us to believe and have faith in Him. I like the attitude of this centurion tonight, that we’ve just read of. He—he was a man that felt unworthy. As long as you’re feeling unworthy of the blessing you’re asking, you’re pretty apt to get it. But when you get to a place where you think that God just owes it to you, that’s when you’re—you’re mistaken. We’re in debt to God, not God in debt to us. We’re indebted to God. 11 And this Roman, Italian, whatever he was, he said, “Lord, I’m not worthy that You’d come under my roof, and neither thought I worthy to come face You.” In other words, “I sent Your church to meet You and to ask this question. But I have faith. I know that You’re a man under authority, for I’m under authority. And You don’t have to come down to my house to put Your hands on my—my servant. You don’t have to come here and say any prayer.” Notice. Now, be sure to get this. He said, “I’m a man under authority also. And if I say to this man, ‘You go do it,’ he will do it. And if I say to this man, ‘You come here,’ he will come. I’m under authority. And them who are under me has to obey me.” And he knew that that was the Son of God, and that every sickness and every demon was under Him. And all He had to do is just speak the Word, not pray, just speak the Word (That’s all.), and it would be done, because every demon would have to obey Him. Do you believe that tonight? Every demon will obey God. It has to. Everything obeys God. And it’ll obey you if you have faith. 50-0815 - "Who Is God?" Rev.
