Lessons from Lazarus
Happy New Year! As we kick off 2020, we will begin by focusing on the cross and sharing communion together. We'll also take a look at lessons from the miracle of Lazarus' resurection that we can apply to the new year. Jesus told the people at the grave site of Lazarus to “loose him. And let him go" (John 11:43-44). In the same way, we need to let some things loose to work in our lives. God’s Word is greater than any thing that has bound, limited or enslaved you this past year. This new year let your spirit respond to God. Pray with the Psalmist, ”Give me understanding, and I shall keep your law; indeed, I shall observe it with with my whole heart. Make me walk in the path of your commandments, for I delight in it ” (Psalm 119:34-35). When you pray such a prayer, your faith will grow, and the circumstances that seem impossible will be changed by God.
