Today, we get to see in the Bible the arrival of a King as HE enters His city. The King is Jesus, and the city He enters is Jerusalem. But King Jesus’ arrival includes some unexpected things that no one saw coming.
We have ways to celebrate birthdays and anniversaries, but how would you celebrate someone coming back to life? Today we look at the way Mary, Martha, and Lazarus displayed their love and thankfulness to Jesus for raising Lazarus from the dead.
Today we get to see two sisters who were about to experience the most incredible miracle of Jesus they had ever seen. But before that happened, they also experienced the love of Jesus who was with them in their sorrow.
We’re in the middle of seeing how Jesus is going to answer the prayer of Mary and Martha for their brother Lazarus. As we’re waiting to pick up on that story next week, we’re going to look at a Psalm that reflects a little bit of what Mary and Martha are going to be experiencing…
When we pray and Jesus does not answer “yes” to our prayers, how do we respond? Today we will look at two sisters who went through just such an experience. Through their experience, we will see how Jesus works in unseen ways, even when He does not answer with a “yes”.
Today, we get to see the power of Jesus as the Good Shepherd, not only in seeking us out and rescuing us, but also in protecting us and keeping us safe as His sheep.
Today we will see how God used the prayers and obedience of two people to miraculously bring them together. This encounter will change both of their lives. Through them, we can learn a lot about praying and following Jesus in our own lives.
The Bible often uses sheep to describe people. In a spiritual sense, it’s amazing how much help and care we need, just like sheep! In John 10, Jesus is going to use the relationship between a shepherd and his sheep to help us see more clearly who He is as our Shepherd.
Today we’re going to see that physical sight isn’t the only sight Jesus gives the man who was born blind. The sight Jesus gives this man a second kind of sight that is even more valuable, spiritual sight.
Have you ever met someone who changed so much that you didn’t realize who he or she was? In today’s passage, we will look at a person who was accused of being a liar by the rulers of the city when he explained how his change happened.
