The Centurion gets it. 

He knows that the Kingdom of God rests on Christ's Authority. 

 And He expects that His will is done on earth as it is in Heaven.

Luke's record of 'The Sermon on the Mount' closes with Jesus' own words on our obedience to His teaching.

Jesus, displaying His authority gives directive instructions to people.  

How can we follow their examples of obedience and cooperation with the teachings of Jesus?

James 1:22 Hearing and doing

Prayer Following the Sermon

"But he would withdraw to desolate places and pray." v 16

If Jesus wasn’t praying merely to charge-up for more healing, why did he pray?

Jesus modelled a relationship with our Heavenly Father

Like a husband and wife are bound and growing together, the believer responding to God in prayer is blessed in many ways.
