Jesus Is Never Late
“Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die. Do you believe this?” John 11:25-26, NKJV
We can attempt to go through the troubles we face in this life by ourselves or we can invite the Lord into our problems.
The scripture for today is part of the story of the death of Lazarus. He was a good friend of the Lord’s. When Lazarus got sick, the Lord was in another city busy with His ministry. They sent for the Lord but the Lord arrived after the death of Lazarus.
Even though the Lord was not present during the sickness of and the death of Lazarus, when the Lord showed up, good things happened.
I would encourage you today with the truth that the same things will happen for you when the Lord shows up in your troubles. There are four good things that will happen for you when you invite the Lord into your troubles.
Comfort – “Though he may die, he shall live”.
Calm – “I am the resurrection and the life”.
Counsel – “Do you believe this”.
Confidence – “Whoever lives and believes in me shall never die”.
Are you facing troubles today? Are you walking through those troubles alone?
Be encouraged today in knowing that when you invite the Lord into those problems at least four good things will happen to you that will help you get though the problems.
