JESUS HEALS A PARALYZED MAN – MIRACLE 4

Matthew 8:5-13

Jesus heals a paralyzed man is one of the miracles performed by Jesus.

When Jesus went into Capernaum, a centurion came up to Him, begging Him for help.

“Lord, my servant is lying at home paralyzed, with intense and terrible, tormenting pain.”

Jesus said to him, “I will come and heal him.” 

But the centurion replied to Him,

“Lord, I am not worthy to have You come under my roof, but only say the word, and my servant will be healed. For I also am a man subject to authority of a higher rank, with soldiers subject to me; and I say to one, ‘Go!’ and he goes, and to another, ‘Come!’ and he comes, and to my slave, ‘Do this!’ and he does it.”

Then Jesus said to the centurion, “Go; it will be done for you as you have believed.” And the servant was restored to health at that very hour.

When Jesus heard this, He was amazed and said to those who were following Him, “I tell you truthfully, I have not found such great faith as this with anyone in Israel.

I say to you that many Gentiles will come from east and west, and will sit down to feast at the table, and enjoy God’s promises with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven because they accepted Me as Savior, while the sons and heirs of the kingdom the descendants of Abraham who will not recognize Me as Messiah will be thrown out into the outer darkness; in that place which is farthest removed from the kingdom there will be weeping in sorrow and pain and grinding of teeth in distress and anger.”
