TODAY’S TOPIC: Believe and be set free
Text: John 4:45-54 (NIV):
"4:45. When he arrived in Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him. They had seen all that he had done in Jerusalem at the Passover Feast, for they also had been there.
4:46. Once more he visited Cana in Galilee, where he had turned the water into wine. And there was a certain royal official whose son lay sick at Capernaum.
4:47. When this man heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea, he went to him and begged him to come and heal his son, who was close to death.
4:48. "Unless you people see miraculous signs and wonders," Jesus told him, "you will never believe."
4:49. The royal official said, "Sir, come down before my child dies."
4:50. Jesus replied, "You may go. Your son will live." The man took Jesus at his word and departed.
4:51. While he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was living.
4:52. When he inquired as to the time when his son got better, they said to him, "The fever left him yesterday at the seventh hour."
4:53. Then the father realized that this was the exact time at which Jesus had said to him, "Your son will live." So he and all his household believed.
4:54. This was the second miraculous sign that Jesus performed, having come from Judea to Galilee."
SHOWER (Reflection):
Believe and be set free. The kingdom of God is for those who believe without waiting to see a miracle first. What you are requesting for may be hanging before you and required your urgent attention (believe) to manifest. Believe is faith and faith is believing. A royal officer asked Jesus to visit him to heal the child. But was told to go home that the sick has been healed. He believed at once; left without doubting, murmuring or arguing. We ought to build such kind faith in Christ Jesus. He has told us that will get job, marry, build houses, travel or whatever. Be careful and work your salvation now by believing.
