Day 65- Raising Lazarus from the Dead (John 11:1-57)





In a few weeks Christians all around the world will celebrate the resurrection of Jesus Christ! In this familiar passage Jesus says,
"I am the resurrection and the life" to those who believe.  In today's passage, Jesus displays His power not only over the devil (yesterday's reading), but over death itself!  This is the "Good News" that every follower of Christ not only believes, but is called to share.

Questions to ponder:

1. In vs.14&15, why does Jesus wait so long before He goes to 
    raise Lazarus?

2. Just before Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead, He prays a 
    prayer to His Father and ours.  What was the content of His 
    prayer?

3. If Jesus wanted His disciples and all who mourned with
    Martha and Mary to believe; what does Jesus want you to do
    today?

Prayer: Read 1 Corinthians 15:50-58 and thank the LORD for the promise of your resurrection in Jesus and ask Him to help you to live out of that resurrection power today.



The Bux-Mont & Telford Campuses of the Penn Valley Church Multi-site Network are participating in the e100 Challenge, a 100-day Bible reading program. True revival comes from prayer and knowing the Word of God. We can only live the life God intended if we know what He says about it. Join us as we read through this plan and grow deeper in our knowledge of God's Word.
