Day 57: Jesus Shouted With A Loud Voice, “Impossible, Come Out!”
Read: John 11:17 – 27; 38 – 44
Many have come and gathered for this most solemn of occasions. They
have come from both near and far to remember a close friend who has
passed from this life into the next. Today is the funeral for
‘Impossible’. It has taken a little more time than usual for the
arrangements to be made. It was a dying request of ‘Impossible’ to be
buried in the wilderness cave from which the world first received it. It
took four days to locate the right one but finally they laid
‘Impossible’ to rest inside rolling the large stone over the entrance. A
few prayers later, the ceremony ended. But I ask you to consider –
Could the death of ‘Impossible’ really be God’s end to this story?
Consider that Lazarus had been dead and buried for four days. On the
fourth day Jesus shouted into Lazarus’s tomb “Come Out”. The stone was
rolled away, Lazarus walked out and people walked up to him, embraced
him and released from his wrappings and Lazarus strolled into a new life
filled with infinite ‘Possibilities’. For us today, how is it that
‘Impossible’ can be raised like Lazarus from the dead and become
transformed by the power God through His Son Jesus Christ unto new life
now to become known to all mankind as ‘Possible’? We must call out to
our own ‘Impossible’ residing within us. Walk up, embrace the ‘Possible’
that God releases.
23 Jesus said to her, ‘Your brother will
rise again.’ 24 Martha said to him, ‘I know that he will rise again in
the resurrection on the last day.’ 25 Jesus said to her, ‘I am the
resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they
die, will live, 26 and everyone who lives and believes in me will never
die. Do you believe this?’ Today, Jesus tells us that Everything we embrace as
‘Impossible’ will be transformed into ‘All Things Are Possible’ through
belief in Jesus Christ. Do You Believe this is really 'Possible'? Is 'Possible' really truly possible for you?
Let
us pray: Lord of the Resurrection, Help our Unbelief. Help Us to live as
your resurrection people. Help us so that we may help others overcome
themselves through the power of Christ. Call out to the ‘Impossible’
within each of us that we may embrace Your light of ‘Possibility. Help
us to believe in our own full potential.
