Have you ever felt as if your back was against the wall and there was no way out? I know just how you feel because I have been there a time or two in my life. Imagine how Lazarus felt, he had a personal relationship with Jesus, yet he lay on a bed of affliction suffering and dying. The relationship that Lazarus had with Jesus should help us to understand, that no matter how strong your relationship is, YOU ARE NOT EXCLUDED FROM CIRCUMSTANCES.
We will all suffer and endure trials and tribulations; however, no matter the circumstances, rest assured that Jesus can help you overcome them all. Why? Because he has a personal relationship with you that guarantees that: He will show up, even when others think that there is no hope or that it’s too late for you.
Through Jesus Christ, you and I can overcome overwhelming circumstances and PREVAIL. The challenge is that you have to begin to see yourself as an overcomer through Jesus Christ, who gives you the strength to overcome by the Blood of the Lamb.
So remember as the songwriter says: HE MOVES MOUNTAINS, HE CAUSES WALLS TO FALL!!!
Therefore, let us confess that we are: OVERCOMERS!
“And when he thus had spoken, he cried with a loud voice, Lazarus, come forth. And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him, and let him go.” John 11:43-44 KJV
