When Lazarus was placed in his tomb, most believed it would be the last they would ever see of him. A heavy stone was rolled over the entrance, and Lazarus would lay in darkness forever.
But when Jesus’ authoritative voice commanded Lazarus to “come forth,” there was life, Christian author and Pastor Jamie Buckingham says in this video devotional. With a single phrase, all of the processes of death were reversed. Lazarus’ body had returned to life with a mere word from God.
Ask yourself this question. Do I have life? Am I free in the Spirit, or am I bound in the grave clothes of dead tradition? Jesus stands today at your tomb, calling you to L’Chaim (life).{eoa}
