He saw the authority of God in Jesus. It will be done just as you believed it would. The servant was healed at that moment. But like the centurion, this prayer expresses a deep and humble faith in the only One who can truly heal us. When Jesus performed miracles, it showed us His loving and compassionate nature.
Jesus spoke, touched, and interacted with each person. It added hours and hours onto His workday. He did it for the personal connection. He pursues us, loves us unconditionally, and wants to heal us.
