SO BE IT!

“And Jesus said to the centurion, Go your way; and as you have believed, so be it done to you. And his servant was healed in the self-same hour.”

                                                                                                                           MATTHEW 8:13 (KJV)

In scripture we see that everyone who came to Jesus believing left with the experience of what they had believed. Why is it so? The scripture of truth reveals Jesus as the Amen (Revelation 3:14), and amen means “so be it.” Is this not an interesting revelation that whenever we come into the presence of Jesus in prayer, his response to our desires is amen.

In our opening scripture, the centurion had just asked that Jesus healed his servant; he further displayed a strong belief in Jesus’ supernatural ability in forbidding him from coming to his house: requesting that he only spoke the word and that he was sure his servant would be healed at his word.

Jesus’ response to the centurions request and faith in him was: “so be it done to you.” Jesus still responds in this same way to our prayers, we only need to be away of this nature of his and his ability to grant us our desires.

We need to be cautious of the manner of our faith in God. Jesus said to the centurion, “as you have believed . . .” This he said with respect to the man’s request to have him speak the word only: this act was regarded as great faith. He could have believed Jesus for less.

Do you believe God to do great things for you? Do you believe him to accomplish your desires for you in an uncommon way? Express you absolute faith in God’s ability in the big things you request of him to do for you and in the supernatural way you expect them to happen for he is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that you can think of or ask according to his power that is at work in you. Amen!
