It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing; the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life. —John 6:63
Jesus waited four days before he went to Bethany, the home of His dear friends Mary, Martha, and Lazarus. After greeting the two grieving sisters, Jesus went to Lazarus’ tomb. He prayed the prayer of faith and called Lazarus’ name—and Lazarus arose and walked out of the tomb.
John 5:25 says, “The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.”
“Life” in the above verse is the Greek word zoe, which means “the God-kind of life.” Jesus said that He came not only that we would have life, but that we would have it more abundantly. Let the words of David be your daily prayer: “Quicken thou me according to thy Word.” Let Jesus speak His life into your situation.
Is there death in a relationship? Ask Jesus to speak life into it. Is there death in your finances? Ask Jesus to speak life into them. Is there death in your ministry? Ask Jesus to speak life into it.
Jesus, speak life into every area of death.
Bring to life all that You desire to live and
crucify all my flesh. Speak Your words
of life into my life today. Amen.
