Eagle's Wings: Dead to Self, Alive in Christ

Eagle's Wings

He gives power to the weak, and to those who has no might, He increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, BUT those who wait on the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.

Dead to Self, Alive in Christ

Reading the story of Lazarus death and how Jesus raised him from the dead in John 11, reminds me that we are all dead in our "selves". We are a new creation, alive in Christ. He is living inside of us.

John 11:25
Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. 26 And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?"

Do you believe?

John 11:40
Jesus said to her, "Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?"

Our heavenly Father hears our prayers even if you don't feel so...

v. 41...And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. 42 And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the people who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me."

You have been set free. Believe it and have confidence in Him and His word will set you free to receive your Miracle today!

v. 43 ...He cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth!" 44 And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Loose him, and let him go."
