Lazarus had been asleep in death for days. Yet, when Jesus called, he stood tall and walked out of his tomb.

Paul stood tall in front of the rulers and church authorities who tried to stop him preaching about Jesus’ love and sacrifice. God blessed Paul and used him to spread the gospel to new believers.

Trust in God today!
