LORD OVER TIME
Memorise:
Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live .. John 11:25
Read:
John 2:1-11
Message
The Almighty God is truly powerful. He is Lord over all, and He is so powerful that He can bring the future into the present.
In today's Bible reading, Jesus, His mother, and His disciples attended a wedding. In the course of the celebration, His mother learnt that the hosts had run out of wine and she informed Jesus who responded by saying, My time has not yet come." Notwithstanding, Jesus instructed the servants at the wedding to fill six waterpots with water and then draw out some of it for the governor of the ceremony. As they did so, the water miraculously tumed into wine. Jesus simply reached into the future and changed the time from 'not yet' to 'now'. I pray that if there is anything you are trusting God for that seems to have been delayed, it will come into manifestation now, in Jesus' name.
In John 11:1-17, Lazarus died and had been buried for four days before Jesus arrived on the scene. Naturally, his case was a hopeless one because a four-day-old corpse would have started decomposing already. However, when Jesus arrived at Lazarus' home, He told Martha, his sister, that her brother would rise again. If Jesus had arrived on the day Lazarus died, Martha might have had a glimmer of hope that Jesus could raise her brother from the dead. However, he had been dead for four days, and she said,"Lord, by this time he stinketh..."(John 11:39). Even though Jesus had not yet died and resurrected, He reached into the future to become the Resurrection and the Life for Lazarus' sake (John 11:25). He took on an identity that was reserved for after his death and resurrection and called Lazarus out of the grave.
Beloved, we serve a God who is not bound by time. He created time itself and is Lord over it. This is why you Should not despair when it seems like you have lost some opportunities, or when you are in a terrible situation that Seems to be beyond redemption. When you are faced with Such circumstances, all God requires you to do is have laith in Him, and as Jesus said in John 11:40,"...if thou wouldest believe, thou shouldest see the glory of God..." I pray today that if there is any situation in your life that has been judged to be dead and stinking, such a situation will experience the Resurrection and the Life, in Jesus' name
