John 11:39-40 (NLT)
“Roll the stone aside,” Jesus told them. But Martha, the dead man’s sister, protested, “Lord, he has been dead for four days. The smell will be terrible.” Jesus responded, “Didn’t I tell you that you would see God’s glory if you believe?”

There is a popular saying, “There’s a cure for everything but death.” But even death could not overcome Jesus, either in His life or in His own death!
So if there is a “smell of death” in your business, in your workplace, in your marriage or family, or in your own body or soul, roll the stone away! Don’t fear the smell of whatever it is that is decaying. Instead, expose it to the power of the Living One, for if you will believe, you too, will see the glory of God!
You may want to pray a prayer like this:
Father God, I open the “deadly” areas of my life to Your power and presence right now. Rather than being entombed and held bondage to the decadence I am facing, I instead choose to believe that I will see Your glory in my life, and that You will resurrect me from my predicament. In the name of Jesus, Amen!
Have a blessed day!
