I knew that Lazarus was dead, and I intentionally waited a few days before I went to see him. Father had given Me the assignment to raise him from the dead. When I heard that Lazarus was sick, I said, "This sickness is not unto death, but for the glory of God, that the Son of God might be glorified thereby."
After a few days, I told the disciples, "Our friend Lazarus sleeps; but I go, that I may awake him out of sleep." The day will come when at the sound of God's trumpet ant the voice of the archangel that I will awaken all those who died in Me.
There is no reason for you to fear death because you have been made righteous by My blood. When you physically die, you will simply fall asleep and you will awake in My arms. At your last breath, your spirit will leave your body and will be forever with Me. Later I will give you a glorified body on that great resurrection day.
