FAITH CAPSULE: The thanks offering before God provokes the deliverance of God.

John 11

Daniel 6:10 records, “10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went home. And in his upper room, with his windows open toward Jerusalem, he knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days.”
Daniel went into the den of lions but could not be touched.
The thanks offering before God provoked the deliverance of God for Daniel not to become a victim of sudden and untimely death.
King Darius reluctantly signed for Daniel into the Den of Lions came to check David in the morning, calling him out: “20 And when he came to the den, he cried out with a lamenting voice to Daniel. The king spoke, saying to Daniel, “Daniel, servant of the living God, has your God, whom you serve continually, been able to deliver you from the lions?” (Daniel 6:20)
Daniel responds, “Then Daniel said to the king, “O king, live forever! 22 My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths so that they have not hurt me because I was found innocent before Him; and also, O king, I have done no wrong before you.” (Daniel 6:21-22)
Daniel experienced deliverance from the sudden and untimely death in the den of lions.
Ask that giving understanding thanks before God shall be your custom, your way of life.
Ask that you shall be giving God thanks that will provoke His hand to be upon you, not to become a victim of sudden death and untimely death.
Lazarus was dead.
In his death, there was no hope to rise again.
Jesus identified the hindrances for Lazarus not to rise are:
STONE and THE LACK BELIEVE OF THE PEOPLE OF LAZARUS
John 11:39 records, “Jesus said, “Take away the stone.” Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, “Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days.” 
The stone is a hindrance needed has to be taken off for Jesus to do a miracle.
The people of Lazarus had given up on hope for him to rise.
Jesus reacted, “40 Jesus said to her, “Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?” 
Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, “Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. 42 And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the people who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me.” 43 Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!” 44 And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, “Loose him, and let him go.” (John 11:40-44)
With thanks, Jesus brought Lazarus out of death.
Ask, declare that you are coming out of every physical or spiritual trap that is denying you to live life for the glory of God.
