(John 11:44)
Brother Lazarus was under bondage and the Lord Jesus said to the people by the power of God “Loose him, and let him go”. Good enough the mission was accomplished and Lazarus who was bound hand and foot with grave clothes was loosed by the Holy Spirit.
My sincerest desire and prayer to God is that you be loosed and allowed to go. I myself cannot loose you because I have no power of my own, for it is not by power nor by might but by the Spirit.
Some people are under the bondage of Satan in various ways:
in bondage of sin, the Law of Moses, poverty, sorrow, sickness, disease, calamity, dead, ignorance, nakedness, homelessness, joblessness, foolishness, rejection, abandonment, desertion, weakness, hopelessness and faithlessness. Others are under the bondage (captivity) of physical and spiritual blindness, lameness, dumbness and deafness, loneliness, imprisonment, misunderstanding, slavery, backwardness, impotency, madness, insomnia, barrenness, persecution, failure, loss, war, unhappiness, restlessness, moodiness, sadness, ugliness, idleness, waywardness, godlessness and some others without God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit.
Nothing is impossible for God to do if you believe. In this pathetic situation rejoice for there is movement of the water by the angel of the Lord like in the days of old at Bethesda – John 5:2-3. Now is the time of God’s visitation to you as you read this for the entrance of the word of God giveth light, solution, healing and change, for God is your healer and he send forth his word and heal your diseases. I said before that I am not the one to do it but God. He shall loose you and you become free.
Should these problems linger for a little while, rejoice for you are safe. You are in the hollow of God’s hand. Paul said, “and not only so, but we glory in tribulations also knowing that tribulation worketh patience, and patience, experience and experience, hope, and hope maketh not ashamed, because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us” – Roman 5:3-5.
Your breathing now is not by your power. You are being kept and sustained by the power of God. Peter adds this, “where in ye greatly rejoice, though now FOR A SEASON, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations, that the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, THOUGH IT BE TRIED WITH FIRE, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ”. Job said after he has tried me I will come out purer. You too will come out purer if you endure.
Men and brethren, relax for all is well. It does not say you will not pass through fire. But it says when you pass through fire, it shall not burn you. Neither does it say, you shall not pass through water. But the Bible says when you pass through water you shall not be drown. It does not say weapons shall not be formed against you. But it says, when they are formed, they shall not prosper. It does not say your enemies shall not gather against you. But it says, when they gather against you, they shall surely be scattered. It does not say the enemy will not come like a flood. But it says, “when the enemy shall come like a flood by Spirit of God shall lift up standard against it.” The scripture does not say you will not have trouble. But it says, I will be with him in trouble. It does not say they will not fight against you. But God says, they will fight against you but I will deliver you. I have experience of what I’m writing about. It is authority.
Therefore relax. Be patient with the Lord. Do not give up for there is a miracle on the way. How can you allow tribulations to separate you from the Lord when Paul says, “In all these things we are more than conquerors?” Brother James too lends a voice saying, “My brethren count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations. Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing” James 1:3-4.
You need to manifest patience, that’s why God allows these circumstances to come to you. Your case is not worse than that of Lazarus in the grave for four good days, nor than that of Job that lost everything. Just know that the solution to your problem is for an appointed time. It could be now any way. The grace of God will accomplish it. The power of God will do it. God has started work in you already and all the prayers you’ve been praying He has heard. Could you not have been Abraham that waited for 100 years for a promise child or Elizabeth and Hannah?
Remain in God. Do not run helter skelter because of trouble after all man was born for trouble. Do not add more trouble to yourself. Wait upon the Lord, for they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength. Rather let the weak says I’m strong and the poor says I’m rich for the grace of God is sufficient unto you and forever the word of the Lord is settled in Heaven and it is the sword of the Spirit which you’re reading. The Spirit will use it to fight your battle. You’re blessed.
Try all godly ways you can to come out of your trouble and God will support you. Heaven help those who helps themselves. If it warrants going to hospital, do. If church, come. If prayer, pray. If song, sing. If studying the Bible, do. If counseling, come. If school, go. If job, search. If sin, forsake. If help, seek. If peace, make. If exercise, do. For all things work together for the good of them who love God and are the call according to his purpose. He who started a good work in you will complete it soon. He will perfect that which concerneth you, for faithful is He who has called you and will also do it.
After you have done all in your power, wait for God’s time, for God’s time is the best. MY EARNEST AND SINCEREST PRAYER AND WISH FOR YOU IS, “GOD LOOSE THEM AND LET THEM GO. ON MY OWN, I COMMAND YOU LOOSED, for it is written what ever I loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven. It will happen on earth the land of the living for you”. Psalm 27:13-14. This is the sword of the Spirit and it shall surely break yokes and you shall testify. When it happens remember me the messenger and water us.
Peace be with you. AMEN.
