The Nobleman's Son

This powerful message takes us deep into the healing ministry of Jesus through the story of the nobleman's son in John 4. We discover that divine healing isn't just a historical curiosity—it's part of our benefits package as believers today. Just as Psalm 103 declares that God forgives all our iniquities and heals all our diseases, we're reminded that healing made it into the New Covenant alongside salvation. The nobleman's story reveals something revolutionary: we don't need to see Jesus physically present to receive our miracle. When Jesus spoke the word 'your son lives,' He sent Himself—because Jesus IS the Word made flesh. The father had to walk home by faith, fighting doubt with every step, believing the word he received without any physical proof. This is our challenge too. We often try to box God's healing power into delivery methods that make sense to us, but God isn't restricted by our limited thinking. The key insight? Faith is an action word. That nobleman unlocked his son's healing by turning and walking away in belief. We're called to do the same—to receive the Word that's being sent to us right now and act on it, even when circumstances scream otherwise. The miracle was already done before the father arrived home; he just had to believe it into manifestation through his faith walk.
