BIBLE READING: Matthew 8:5-13
5 And when Jesus was entered into Capernaum, there came unto him a centurion, beseeching him,
6 And saying, Lord, my servant lieth at home sick of the palsy, grievously tormented.
7 And Jesus saith unto him, I will come and heal him.
8 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.
9 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.
10 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.
11 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.
12 But the children of the kingdom shall be cast out into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
13 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.
MESSAGE:
God created the universe by His word, and that word is still doing wonders today. In today’s Bible reading, Jesus was about to visit the home of a Centurion who had cried to Him to heal his sick servant. Surprisingly, the Centurion asked Him not to come, but to only speak the word.” Jesus obliged, and the Centurion’s servant was healed immediately. Whenever God’s word goes out, the sick receive their healing, as we see in today’s memory verse, and other miracles abound.
The word of God can solve any difficult situation. I remember a lady who came for prayers because she was still bedwetting at 25. She said that she normally avoided sleeping over at any of her friends’ houses for fear of shame. I prayed with her, declaring God’s Word over her situation, and the following week, she came back with a testimony. Today, I decree God’s Word into your life: if you are going through any challenge which you cannot tell anyone about, may the Lord give you a solution to it, in Jesus’ name.
My dear child, use God’s word as a weapon for your deliverance. Read it, study it, and meditate on it to experience all-round victory in your life, finances, family, and academics.
KEY POINT:
God’s word is still as potent as it was at the creation of the universe.

HYMN 15 – Pass Me Not, O Gentle Saviour
1 Pass me not, O gentle Saviour,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
REFRAIN:
Saviour, Saviour,
Hear my humble cry;
While on others Thou art calling,
Do not pass me by.
2 Let me, at Thy throne of mercy
Find a sweet relief;
Kneeling there in deep contrition,
Help my unbelief.
3 Trusting only in Thy merit
Would I seek Thy face
Heal my wounded, broken spirit,
Save me by Thy grace.
4 Thou, the spring of all my comfort,
More than life to me.
Whom have I on earth beside Thee?
Whom in heav’n but Thee?
