Jesus, Lord Of Death #2 of 2

April 22, 2011
When Jesus was preparing to raise Lazarus from the grave, He wanted there to be no mistake that Lazarus was indeed dead. That is why He waited four days before displaying His glory and power in calling Lazarus from the tomb. Jesus specializes in giving new life to those dead in their sins and separated from God. Today we learn why you and I should believe.

Living With Your Passions
In a hyper-sexualized culture, sex is either reduced to pleasure-seeking or conflated with our identity. But God designed us as sexual beings for emotional and spiritual intimacy whose highest calling is to worship Him. In this revised edition, Pastor Erwin Lutzer draws on forty years of ministry experience to present a rationale for sexual purity. He gives an honest answer to the sexual pressures we face like extramarital relationships, self-gratification, same-sex attraction, and more. As desire-driven creatures, we don't have to pursue happiness at the expense of character. With our identity grounded in Christ, we can live victoriously with our passions.

Our greatest fear is death. Our greatest pain is losing a loved one to death. A friend’s death caused Jesus to weep. Jesus has power over death, and displaying the power and glory of God, Jesus cried out “Lazarus, come forth!” Today: we will see why the risen Christ is the Lord of Death and how He holds the keys of life and death for everyone who has ever lived.

Jesus healed a blind man’s eyes. Many today yearn for a miracle as well, and turn to faith-healers for deliverance. The healing works of Christ were complete. “Once I was blind, but now I can see.” Can the same be said for the miracles of televangelists? Today: lessons from the Great Physician on miracles of healing.

One of the toughest questions we can ever ask is why God allows some people to be born with severe disabilities. Some of us who run life’s race do so without sight, without working limbs, or with other impairments. Many cry out to God, asking why they’re afflicted in these ways. Today: we will hear one reason why, a reason that comes from the lips of Jesus Himself.

Do severe trials mean you have left the will of God? Not always. Jesus sent His disciples onto a storm-tossed sea. God uses storms to mold our character, and our job is to hold on to our faith in Christ no matter what. Sometimes, God leads His people into the tempest to teach them what cannot be taught in comfort. Today: lessons from some wind-whipped water.

Most of us believe in the unchanging laws of nature: light things float, heavy things sink. But that isn’t always true. To calm His disciples’ fears, Jesus decided to overrule the usual laws of nature. He walked on water, and later commanded a storm to cease. If you had been in that boat, what would your reaction have been?

Food never tastes as good as it does when you’re really hungry. Jesus knew this when He miraculously fed the 5,000. He later spoke to the crowd about Himself as the Bread of Life, encouraging the spiritually hungry to believe in Him. Today we will learn why we need eternal bread, and where to find it. It comes from the same hands that multiplied the loaves and fishes.

The early miracles of Jesus were private. Later, they became public. One day, over 5,000 were fed from a boy’s lunch. Generally in life there are no free lunches. But this day was different, and the news of this incredible miracle spread like wildfire. Today: come with us to the shore of the Sea of Galilee for the story of multiplied loaves and fishes, and what that miracle means.

It is interesting how Jesus tied obedience to receiving a miracle. “Get up and walk!” He told a paralyzed man. In most cases, the miracle happened as the needy person obeyed. Could it be that many of us desire a miracle more than we desire to be obedient to God, who can grant the miracle? Today: lessons from John chapter five and a healing at the Pool of Bethesda.

If you have a great need, and you’ve had it for a long time, you may have given up all hope that your need will ever be met. As runners in life’s race, we may face impossible situations. That is, unless the Lord of the impossible does a miracle. The Bible teaches that all things are possible with God. Today we will see Jesus do the impossible at the Pool of Bethesda.

In times of crisis, we cry out to God like a man in Jesus’ day who saw his crisis faith become contagious faith. Jesus did many miracles to display His glory and encourage our belief. We too can have contagious faith, faith that takes Christ at His word. Today: lessons we can learn from a long-distance healing 2,000 years ago.
