John

John 4:50–53

50“Go,” said Jesus. “Your son will live.”

The man took Jesus at His word and departed. 51And while he was still on the way, his servants met him with the news that his boy was alive.

52So he inquired as to the hour when his son had recovered, and they told him, “The fever left him yesterday at the seventh hour.e”

53Then the father realized that this was the very hour in which Jesus had told him, “Your son will live.” And he and all his household believed.
