      In verse 35, Jesus wept. This shows how compassionate Jesus is; he also isn’t happy to see you suffering and crying that’s why he is going to come to your rescue very soon. It’s that love and compassion that led God to send his only begotten son Jesus Christ to die on the cross so as to restore us his people that had fallen from the glory of God back to his Glory and communion. And if God gave you his only son Jesus Christ, there is no good thing (healing, marriage, children, and deliverance) that he will withhold from you, Psalm 84:11. In the history of the world, it is only Jesus Christ that invites all people who are weary and heavy laden to bring their burdens and cast their cares unto him (Matthew 11:28, 1 Peter 5:7). You know what, all you need in order for you to find rest is to cast all your burdens to him because he will handle them. You don't need to carry the hatred, addiction, negativity or fears. All you have to do is to bring it to Jesus because he is the only one in the whole world that promises rest for all those that are weary and are heavy laden.

      In verse 39, Jesus instructed them to take away the stone from the grave such that the glory of God would be revealed, but Martha tried to hold him back by telling him that Lazarus had already spent four days in the grave. Jesus Christ wants us to remove those things that hinder us from seeing his Glory if we want to see it; forgive that person, repent, stop cohabiting, be faithful to your spouse or children. Let’s remove any barrier that would hinder us from seeing the glory of God. This is our part and note that Jesus didn’t remove the stone, they had to remove it.

      At last in verse 43-44, Jesus called out Lazarus and when he resurrected, Jesus instructed that they remove the clothes of the dead from him, loose him and let him go. This is my prayer for you all as you read this book, may God heal, restore and meet you at your point of need as I share with you the seven keys that can help you not to lose your faith and hope in God.

      In this book, I share some keys that can help us keep our faith in God most especially during these seasons of life using my very own personal story. I will answer some of the questions that keep coming in our minds using scriptures and how I was able to get solutions to these questions that kept coming in my mind every time.
