Jesus has total control over life and death. Think about it. Not only did He gave the ability to reach beyond death and retrieve the spirit of Lazarus to bring him back among the living, but He even had to give permission for His own Spirit to exit into death. That’s how powerful our God is!
When Jesus had tasted it, he said, “It is finished!” Then he bowed his head and released his spirit. (John 19:30 NLT)
