John 12:1- Then Jesus six days before the passover came to Bethany, where Lazarus was which had been dead, whom he raised from the dead. Here Jesus attends a celebration in honor of His raising Lazarus from the dead. Can you imagine what went through Lazarus’ mind at the thought of his new lease on life? He embraced each day with new vigor in lieu of what Jesus had done for him! He lived a resurrected life! A Resurrected Life! *a resurrected life is… 1. Exclusive! 2. Exceptional! (he’s eating with Jesus!) 3. External! (visible) 4. Exciting! 5. Extraditing! (abandoning) 6. Exalting!
May we live in lieu of our resurrected awakening in being raised in newness of life today and every day! -Pastor Doug Foster
