Jesus Healed an Official's Son
August 17, 2025
Passage: John 4:46-54
Jesus and His helpers were in Cana. While Jesus was in that
city, a royal official, a leader in Cana, wanted to find Jesus and
talk to Him. The official had a son who was very, very sick, and it
seemed no one could help him. But the official had heard about
the amazing things Jesus was doing, and the official knew Jesus
could make his son well.
“Jesus, please come to my home and heal my son. He is very
sick and may not live much longer,” the official said to Jesus.
Jesus knew the people watching Him were waiting for Jesus to
do something unbelievable. And Jesus knew the official believed
Jesus could make his sick son well.
Then Jesus said to the man, “Go. Your son will live.”
The man believed what Jesus said would happen, that the man’s
son would be well. So, the man left as Jesus told him to do.
As the official was returning to his home, his servants rushed
to see him. They had great news—the official’s son was well. The
official asked, “What time did my son get better?”
“Yesterday afternoon at 1:00, the fever was gone,” answered
the servants.
The official realized that this was exactly the same time that
Jesus said, “Your son will live.” The official and his whole family
knew for sure that only Jesus could do this wonderful thing!
