Jesus Raises Lazarus From the Dead [part 5/6] (John 11:28-37) Bible Reading: And after she had said this, she went back and called her sister Mary aside. "The Teacher is here," she said, "and is asking for you." When Mary heard this, she got up quickly and went to him. Now Jesus had not yet entered the village, but was still at the place where Martha had met him. When the Jews who had been with Mary in the house, comforting her, noticed how quickly she got up and went out, they followed her, supposing she was going to the tomb to mourn there. When Mary reached the place where Jesus was and saw him, she fell at his feet and said, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died." When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who had come along with her also weeping, he was deeply moved in spirit and troubled. "Where have you laid him?" he asked. "Come and see, Lord," they replied. Jesus wept. Then the Jews said, "See how he loved him!" But some of them said, "Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?" John 11:28-37 Scripture Reflections to Consider: How much do you believe that Jesus is working things out for your good? What examples do you have in your life of Jesus working things out for your good? How does Jesus generally move in our lives? What does Jesus expect you to do? Do you get distracted by worldly things and miss blessings from Jesus? What distracts you? What is important about Jesus’ prayer before He raises Lazarus? Why doesn’t Jesus remove the grave clothes from Lazarus, but instead commands others to do it? For more information about our ministry, please visit https://www.kingdomd.org.
