"And the man who had died came forth, bound hand and foot with wrappings, and his face was wrapped around with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "unbind him and let him go"
When the stone was rolled away and Lazarus came out; how alive was he? He was just as alive as you and I right? For he once was dead; but now he was alive.
Now let me ask you this, how free was Lazarus? I believe this is a really good example on how so many of us as Christians, are born again. (that is a brand new creation in Christ - 2 Cor 5:17); but perhaps we are still wrapped in some of our grave clothes.
Jesus came that we may have life abundantly; free of the old clothes that are holding us in bondage.
Father, help us see what grave clothes may still be on us; help us who are walking along side others to help remove those grave clothes for then (and only then) will there be complete freedom!
"It was for freedom that Christ set us free... " Gal 5:1
" .. and the truth will set you free" Jn 8:33
"I have come that you may have life, and have it (live it) to the fullest!" Jn 10:10
That's all for today
In Him
