John 11:25, John 11:38-44, John 10:10

Men and brethren, spiritual and emotional prosperity are meant to be ours through our risen Lord, as we draw on the resources available to us through his indwelling presence and as we receive revelation by the Holy Spirit. Dear friends, real revelation is not just information, it is liberation. In order to see fully the things of God, we must be released from fear and doubts. The reason is your fear can affect your perception and allow the information that was giving by Jesus to be processed differently and or wrongly.

The scripture gave account of a man that needed a total liberation, “He that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with grave clothes; and his face was bound about with a napkin. Jesus saith unto them, Loose him and let him go.” The depiction of what happened in the above bible passage was powerful. Lazarus imminent and sudden appearance from the tomb to life by the authoritative and commanding word of the Son of God Almighty, the one who declared openly, “I am the resurrection and the life” in John 11:25 was about to be obstructed. Instead of coming out the tomb “walking and leaping and praising God” like what happened the man sitting at the Gate Beautiful (Acts 3:8) whom God made his life beautiful; all brother Lazarus could do was hobble out of the grave, the resurrection life frustrated and restricted by the burden of the grave clothes that wrapped around the man that was supposed dead with additional odour on him. But Jesus then turned to bystanders with the message of liberation: “Loose him, and let him go!

Boy oh boy, how many of us would witness such a miracle at night without first taking to our heels because of fear of a ghost about to torment us?

The issue to ponder about will be, are you always wrestling with your limitations both to understand and take hold of, and certainly to utter and do what is contain in the deliverance that God has granted you. Some of us are very poor at this business of letting go, and we know it. How many times have you come to the feet of Jesus to pour out your heart and immediately you leave the presence you see yourself borrowing back your problems to begin another round of worrying?

Right where you are, it is possible to have a life by the word of Jesus Christ, resurrection life, divine life, that which is called eternal life; it is also possible for us to have that life by which we have been brought from the death of our natural state into this newness of life by the Son of God, and yet be limited in every way while we have it. You can be limited in ministry, career – ‘his hands bound’; see yourself limited in progress – ‘his feet bound’; and also be limited in understanding – ‘a napkin around his head and over his eyes’.

Are you of the generation of believers who are in a state of spiritual stagnation, spiritual arrest. And their feet are bound, and that is not God’s idea, because the Life of the believer should be an effective life, a life of Power, a fruitful life, and a responsible life, a life that is really producing something.

Friends, Lazarus had the life, but not abundantly until he was set loosed. John 10:10. Time and Time again we find as true that many, many Christians, born-again believers, who are making no progress in the spiritual life, and are on the verge of quitting in the battles of life? Some others, you meet them after many years and they are just where they were when you first met them. They have not gone on, for their feet are bound. They are not going on, not making spiritual progress, not gaining ground; their past is still evident in their present.

Again, is it not true that there are many who are the Lord’s people but who are not really seeing more and more, and ever more of what He has for them and through them? These groups of people are the ones with testimonies but never desire to willingly share it because they are looking for bigger things. The ones heaven has given female children but they are not happy because they wanted a man child.

It is amazing that Lazarus came forth and he had life, but at that moment when he came forth he was still in contact with the grave. There was still something about him which spoke of that tomb, and the limitations of that grave.

How are you processing your information and how is it affecting its outcome? Is it your processing that is hindering your purpose? Is your mind the source of your misery? Is it how you look at your situation that stops you from receiving your opportunity?

Lazarus was restricted to move into his next dimension with the opportunity that the master gave him until divine helpers were invited. Have you allowed this forum (the comfort zone) to be your divine helper by following instruction or moving by instinct?

Are you of the generation of people that is praying for something that God has already given you and you hid it? Your access to the next dimension is always somewhere in your ground, it is never in the ground of other people.

Are you of the generation of people that bury what you need to expose and exposing what you need to bury? Have you buried your talent and expose your fear?

Are you babysitting your talent? Babysitting your relationship, babysitting your opportunity? Do you have a babysitting mentality?

Anything you baby-sat will not grow. It was possible with Lazarus to receive babysitting as a reward for coming back to life, to learn how to walk, how to eat peradventure he had lost memory during the confinement in the grave. But Jesus said, loose him and let him go.

Therefore, if you babysat your marriage it will not grow. Babysat your job and money, it will not grow. Anything you baby-sit and you don’t have the instinct for increase; you will always have what you had before.

Look at your life, anything that is not growing in your life is because you are babysitting it because anything you maintain and don’t maximize decreases

It is what you do with your fear that matters, you can use it to make excellence or use it to make excuses. The choice is yours. Therefore, scream at the top of your voice, whatever is holding me must ‘LET ME GO’
