In the Book of John, Chapter 11 Lazarus was a friend of Jesus, and he died. Martha and Mary were very upset because Lazarus was dead, and, it was Martha who said to Jesus, “Had you been present, he would not have died.” And so Jesus asked them,“Take me where he is…,” and in “the picture of Lazarus,” it shows that he was in a cave-like grave. Jesus went to the mouth of that cave-like grave, and in a loud voice called out to Lazarus, “Lazarus, come forth” (verse 43). The scripture then teaches in verse 44: “And he that was dead came forth, bound hand and foot with graveclothes: and his face was bound about with a napkin”—and then Jesus cried out again: “Loose him, and let him go.”Well, if Lazarus were “dead”:His “hands and feet were bound.” What “force” had bound “Lazarus”?And, a “napkin was around his eyes,” meaning “he had eyes, but he couldn’t see”—but evidently he heard The Call of Jesus, and he began coming forth. Who had blinded Lazarus.Yet, he was still bound—and so Jesus said, “Loose him.” Who was Jesus talking to?Lazarus” was bound by Satan. So God was giving Satan a Command, Loose Him, and Let Him Go!And that’s the same Command that God is giving us today.WE HAVE A CHOICE TO STAY WITH SATAN OR FOLLOW GOD!!!
