Lord, I am not worthy that You should come under my roof. But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed (Matthew 8:8).

How will you cause Jesus to marvel?

Jesus visits His hometown of Nazareth. Although those in the synagogue “were astonished” at His teaching (Mark 6:2), they rejected Him. Mark records Jesus’ response: “And He marveled because of their unbelief” (Mark 6:6). In contrast, our Lord enters Capernaum. A centurion who desires Jesus to heal a paralyzed servant who suffers greatly approaches Him. The centurion is a Gentile who commands one hundred soldiers. This man understands authority because he is governing many troops and also takes orders from a superior. He graciously turns down Jesus’ offer to go to his home and demonstrates his profound faith by telling Jesus, “But only speak a word, and my servant will be healed.”

Employment Point: Cause Jesus to marvel by believing in His person and work.
