1. Come and heal my son (43-47)

Jesus went to Cana in Galilee where he changed water into wine. Many welcomed him but Jesus did not recognize them because their faith was based on his miracles and not on his word as the people in the Samaritan village. A royal official came from Capernaum and asked, "Come and heal my son, for he is almost dead." Jesus rebuked the Galileans as well as tested his faith saying, "You will never believe until you see the miracles."

2. He took the Lord at his word (48-54)

The royal official persisted, "Lord, come before he dies." Jesus challenged him again saying, "Go! Your son will live!" What did the royal official do? Taking the Lord at his word, he went home! He found then his son was alive! When he carefully checked, it was exactly the same hour when Jesus commanded him to go. So he and all his family believed in Jesus. Praise Jesus who trains and blesses his people to have absolute faith in his word.
