Introduction

I'm about to play a video so pay attention to your monitors

Video: Lazarus Raised from the dead

.

My message this morning is entitled:

"faith, Faith, and FAITH"

My text is found in: John 11:1-46

Introduction:

This message shows three distinct phases of faith

I. Struggling Faith (Martha) vv 20-27

A person in deep water.

Trying to find something to cling to.

But it is just out of reach.

A Businesswoman trying to keep her business afloat!

You just got the news “you have cancer!

Your spouse says I want a divorce

If you only had been here Jesus (Martha)

My brother would still be alive.

God will give you what you ask.

Not what I ask. (Martha has struggling Faith)

Your Brother will rise again. (Jesus) (vv23)

I know. In the last day.

Jesus is saying (HELLO) - I am the resurrection and the life.

Mary says “I know you are the Christ.”

Martha was saying, she believed Jesus could heal Lazarus, But raising him from the dead was a whole new level that she was struggling with.

God doesn’t want us to have Struggling Faith

Neither does he want us to have Clinging faith

II. Clinging Faith (Mary and the crowd) vv 32-37

Hanging on the side of a boat

Found something to cling to.

But still struggling.

If you had only been here. (Mary and the crowd)

Lazarus would still be alive.

Surely Jesus could have done something

When Lazarus was alive.

But not now.

Mary and the crowd are holding on to clinging faith, she fell at His feet! (vv 32)

Jesus wept - (v35) - Jesus cares about us! Jesus Loves us

Some of us have lost love ones - Jesus loves us, He died for us!

Now we come to Resting Faith

III. Resting faith (Those who rolled away the stone) vv 40-41

In the boat.

Secure. No more struggle.

Out of the water.

You’re not Struggling. or Clinging

Roll away the stone. (v. 39)

Surely he stinks. (Are you sure Lord?) “Jewish Law”

They finally rested in His word. (v. 41)

Resulted in reward. (v. 44)

If he hadn’t called Lazarus by his name

Conclusion:

Other resultsOkay because of Faith

And the people believed.

And they went and told about it.

Struggling faith may get you to

the clinging faith stage.

But they will not get you to the resting stage.

Just clinging is not enough.

Come to me all who labor and heavy laden and I will give you rest.

Full commitment to Him. Not just struggling with scripture.

Labor to rest. (Heb 4: 9-11) read and close.

Hebrews 4:9–11 NKJV

9 There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. 10 For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased from his works as God did from His. 11 Let us therefore be diligent to enter that rest, lest anyone fall according to the same example of disobedience.

If you don’t know Jesus as your personal savior

John 3:16 NKJV

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.

Romans 10:13 NKJV

13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

As we bow our heads:

If you’d would like to receive “This Crazy Awesome Love” today, please pray this prayer

Lord I believe that Jesus is the son of God, and that He died On the cross for my sins and His resurrection from the dead gives me eternal life. I ask forgiveness of my sins, and I accept Jesus as my Lord and Savior. Amen.
