A brief illustration of lazarus coming forth after four days
When Mary and Martha sent the news to Jesus saying him whom thou lovest most is sick.
John 11:4: and Jesus said, this sickness is not unto death but for God to be glorified.
Beloved this verse of the scripture is telling us that, there are sicknesses that are unto death, remember verse 2 of the scripturejohn 11:4says it was that Mary that anointed the Lord with ointment and wiped the feet of Jesus with her hair,…meaning she had paid the price, while you’re still strong, while you have so many resources you can use to serve God, please do cause there will come a time in our lives where we will need God desperately.
They knew that without the quick intervention of Jesus, Lazarus will not last…. to them they believed his sickness was unto death.
Mary and Martha watched their brother died,They waited for Jesus, but he didn’t come and they wondered why.
The death watch was over, he’s been buried for four days, and somebody said, Jesus is on His way,
Martha ran to Him and she cried, Lord, if you have been here, you could have healed him and he had still be alive.
But you’re four days late, and all hope is gone, Lord we don’t understand why you waited so long…
Jesus said Martha, show me the grave, but she said Lord, you don’t understand,he’s been there for four days and his remains must have started decaying and smelling.
The grave stone was rolled and Jesus cried and said Lazarus!!! Come forth and somebody said, he’s alive… he’s alive!!!.
You may be fighting a battle of fear, you cried to the lord and he can help but he has not appeared, friends don’t be discouraged cause he’s still the same…He’ll soon be here, he’ll roll back the stone and he’ll call out your name.
When he’s four days late and all hope is gone,
And you keep.wondering, Lord we don’t understand why you’ve waited so long… but rememberHis way is God’s way, not yours or mine, isn’t it great when he’s four days late and he’s still on time, Our God is not late, when he’s four days late cause he’s still on time.

From Mrs Joyce Meyer USA TV Evangelist A GOOD WOMAN, MAKES A GOOD WIFE AND A GOOD WIFE BECOMES A GOOD MOTHER; A GOOD MOTHER GIVES BIRTH TO A GOOD CHILD. IF YOU WANT TO BE ONE EMULATE THESE STEPS BELLOW: 1). Never raise your voice for any reason to your husband. Its a sign of disrespect. 2). Don't expose your husband's weaknesses to your family and friends. It will bounce back at you. You are each other's keeper. 3). Never use attitudes and moods to communicate to your husband, you never know how your husband will interpret them. Defensive women don't have a happy home. 4). Never compare your husband to other men, you've no idea what their life is all about. If you attack his Ego, his Love for you will diminish. 5). Never ill treat your husband's friends because you don't like them, the person who's supposed to get rid of them is your husband. 6). Never forget that your husband married you, not your maid or anyone else. Do...

JESUS WAS NOT BORN ON DEC 25TH

JESUS WAS NOT BORN ON DEC 25TH Was Jesus born on December 25 – Christmas Day? History shows that December 25 was popularized as the date for Christmas, not because Christ was born on that day, but because it was already popular in pagan religious celebrations as the birthday of the sun. But could December 25 be the date of Christ’s birth? When was Jesus Christ born? Was Jesus born on December 25 – Christmas Day? A careful analysis of Scripture, however, clearly indicates that December 25 couldn’t be the date for Christ’s birth. Here are two primaryreasons: First, we know that shepherds were in the fields watching their flocks at the time of Jesus’ birth (Luke 2:7-8). Shepherds were not in the fields during December. According toCelebrations: The Complete Book of American Holidays, Luke’s account “suggests that Jesus may have been born in summer or early fall. Since December is cold and rainy in Judea, it is likely the shepherds would have sought shelter for their flocks ...
