Yes Lord, Even Now!

Topic: Yes Lord, Even Now!
Text: John 11: 21- 22

21 “Lord,” Martha said to Jesus, “if you had been here, my brother would not have died. 22 But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.” Amen

There cannot be a dead-end situation where Jesus is involved. It is impossible! Bad may turn to worse and worse, worst. But to say the situation is beyond repair is to demonstrate one’s limitation in the knowledge of the nature of God.

Word was sent to Jesus that Lazarus, whom He loved, was sick. Yet He stayed two more days. “Then He said to His disciples, let us go back to Judea. But Rabbi, they said, “a short while ago the Jews tried to stone you, and yet you going back there?” (John 11: 7-8).

Jesus therefore revealed the secret to them, “our friend Lazarus has fallen asleep, but I am going there to wake him up”.
On His arrival, Jesus found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for 4 days. Martha, Mary and all their friends were busily mourning him. To them, Jesus could have come early enough to prevent this untimely death.

Of course they didn’t even know (or care, if they knew) that Jesus was RISKING HIS LIFE COMING BACK TO JUDEA WHERE THEY WERE. But you see, Master Jesus would risk everything to rescue you from “the fall”- HALLELUYAH.

Having been around Him for some time, Martha had an idea who the Master is. She said “Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died. But I know that even now God will give you whatever you ask.

Beloved, the “even now” is very important. No situation is permanently destroyed when Jesus is in the boat. Even when everything seems dead and hopeless, CHRIST REMAINS THE RESURRECTION & LIFE.

Why should you agree with your sympathizers that your end has come when Jesus, your Lord is still ABLE? Even now, receive your miracle. Even now, let the weak say “I Am Strong” & let the poor say “I am rich”.
Even now, God is healing the broken hearted and setting the captives free.

Begin to pray and remain optimistic. Don’t give up so easily, Jesus is here now. He will risk everything, even His own life, just to come to you.

EVEN NOW, BE DELIVERED FROM YOUR CHAINS IN JESUS NAME.
